An Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process associated to self-normalized sums (1302.0158v1)

Published 1 Feb 2013 in math.PR

Abstract: We consider an Ornstein-Uhleneck (OU) process associated to self-normalised sums in i.i.d. symmetric random variables from the domain of attraction of $N(0, 1)$ distribution. We proved the self-normalised sums converge to the OU process (in $C[0, \infty)$). Importance of this is that the OU process is a stationary process as opposed to the Brownian motion, which is a non-stationary distribution (see for example, the invariance principle proved by Csorgo et al (2003, Ann Probab) for self-normalised sums that converges to Brownian motion). The proof uses recursive equations similar to those that arise in the area of stochastic approximation and it shows (through examples) that one can simulate any functionals of any segment of the OU process. The similar things can be done for any diffusion process as well.
