  • Abstract
    We consider a Lévy process that is e.g. used in finance to model stock price developments. We want to estimate the characteristics of that process, based on historical data where we assume that we have discrete, high frequency observations. We introduce a threshold estimation method and show consistency and in the case of finite activity asymptotic normality of these estimators.
