Resolution of the skew Brownian motion equations with stochastic calculus for signed measures

Abstract

Contributions of the present paper consist of two parts. In the first one, we contribute to the theory of stochastic calculus for signed measures. For instance, we provide some results permitting to characterize martingales and Brownian motion both defined under a signed measure. We also prove that the uniformly integrable martingales (defined with respect to a signed measure) can be expressed as relative martingales and we provide some new results to the study of the class $Σ(H)$ which appeared for the first time in \cite{f} and studied in \cite{f,e,o}. The second part is devoted to the construction of solutions for the \textbf{homogeneous skew Brownian motion equation} and for the \textbf{inhomogeneous skew Brownian motion equation}. To do this, our ingredients are the techniques and results developed in the first part that we apply on some stochastic processes borrowed from the theory of stochastic calculus for signed measures. Our methods are inspired by those used by Bouhadou and Ouknine in \cite{siam}. Moreover, their solution of the inhomogeneous skew Brownian motion equation is a particular case of those we propose in this paper.

Distribution-uniform strong laws of large numbers

We revisit the question of whether the strong law of large numbers (SLLN) holds uniformly in a rich family of distributions, culminating in a distribution-uniform generalization of the Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund SLLN. These results can be viewed as extensions of Chung's distribution-uniform SLLN to random variables with uniformly integrable $q^\text{th}$ absolute central moments for $0 < q < 2$. Furthermore, we show that uniform integrability of the $q^\text{th}$ moment is both sufficient and necessary for the SLLN to hold uniformly at the Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund rate of $n^{1/q - 1}$. These proofs centrally rely on novel distribution-uniform analogues of some familiar almost sure convergence results including the Khintchine-Kolmogorov convergence theorem, Kolmogorov's three-series theorem, a stochastic generalization of Kronecker's lemma, and the Borel-Cantelli lemmas. We also consider the non-identically distributed case.

Malliavin Calculus for rough stochastic differential equations

In this work we show that rough stochastic differential equations (RSDEs), as introduced by Friz, Hocquet, and Lê (2021), are Malliavin differentiable. We use this to prove existence of a density when the diffusion coefficients satisfies standard ellipticity assumptions. Moreover, when the coefficients are smooth and the diffusion coefficients satisfies a Hörmander condition, the density is shown to be smooth. The key ingredient is to develop a comprehensive theory of linear rough stochastic differential equations, which could be of independent interest.

Nonasymptotic and distribution-uniform Komlós-Major-Tusnády approximation

We present nonasymptotic concentration inequalities for sums of independent and identically distributed random variables that yield asymptotic strong Gaussian approximations of Komlós, Major, and Tusnády (KMT) [1975,1976]. The constants appearing in our inequalities are either universal or explicit, and thus as corollaries, they imply distribution-uniform generalizations of the aforementioned KMT approximations. In particular, it is shown that uniform integrability of a random variable's $q^{\text{th}}$ moment is both necessary and sufficient for the KMT approximations to hold uniformly at the rate of $o(n^{1/q})$ for $q > 2$ and that having a uniformly lower bounded Sakhanenko parameter -- equivalently, a uniformly upper-bounded Bernstein parameter -- is both necessary and sufficient for the KMT approximations to hold uniformly at the rate of $O(\log n)$. Instantiating these uniform results for a single probability space yields the analogous results of KMT exactly.
