Abstract
This paper presents limit theorems for realized power variation of processes of the form X t = ∫ t0 φ s dG s + ξ t as the sampling frequency within a fixed interval increases to infinity. Here G is a Gaussian process with stationary increments, ξ is a purely non-Gaussian Lévy process independent from G, and φ is a stochastic process ensuring that the integral is well defined as a pathwise Riemann-Stieltjes integral. We obtain the central limit theorems for the case that both the continuous term and the jump term are presented simultaneously in the law of large numbers.
