Abstract

Let (Ω,F,(F)t0,P)(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, (\mathcal{F})_{t\ge 0}, P) be a complete stochastic basis, XX a semimartingale with predictable compensator (B,C,ν)(B, C, \nu). Consider a family of probability measures P=(Pn,ψ,ψΨ,n1)\mathbf{P}=( {P}^{n, \psi}, \psi\in \Psi, n\ge 1), where Ψ\Psi is an index set, Pn,ψlocP {P}^{n, \psi}\stackrel {loc} \ll{P}, and denote the likelihood ratio process by Ztn,ψ=dPn,ψFtdPFtZ_t^{n, \psi} =\frac{dP^{n, \psi}|_{\mathcal{F}_t}}{d P|_{\mathcal{F}_t}}. Under some regularity conditions in terms of logarithm entropy and Hellinger processes, we prove that logZtn\log Z_t^{n} converges weakly to a Gaussian process in (Ψ)\ell^\infty(\Psi) as nn\rightarrow\infty for each fixed t>0t>0.
