Abstract

By means of the Malliavin calculus, integral representations for the likelihood function and for the derivative of the log-likelihood function are given for a model based on discrete time observations of the solution to equation dX t = a θ (X t )dt + dZ t with a Lévy process Z. Using these representations, regularity of the statistical experiment and the Cramer-Rao inequality are proved.
