The Delta Expansion for the solutions

of the Fokker-Planck equation

 

 

We consider the topic of finding a closed-form likelihood approximation of diffusion processes, which provide theoretical foundations of modern financial theory.

While the diffusion models are time-continuous, only at discrete time points are the data observed. To obtain the likelihood function of a diffusion model, we need to know the transition densities between two consecutive time points. For general types of diffusion models, the transition density is obtained by solving the Fokker-Planck equation (FPE),

Many researches such as Ait-Sahalia (2002) and Flipovic, et.al. (2011), tried to find the closed-form expansion approximating the solution of the FPE. Recently Lee, et.al. (2014) succeeded to find the closed-form expansion, and named "delta expansion".

In this talk we review the delta expansion and the related expansions.

 

Key words:

Diffusion model, Transition density, Edgeworth expansion,Likelihood estimation, Hermite expansion
