Abstract

Asymptotic expansion of the distribution of a perturbation ZnZ_n of a Skorohod integral jointly with a reference variable XnX_n is derived. We introduce a second-order interpolation formula in frequency domain to expand a characteristic functional and combine it with the scheme developed in the martingale expansion. The second-order interpolation and Fourier inversion give asymptotic expansion of the expectation E[f(Zn,Xn)]E[f(Z_n,X_n)] for differentiable functions ff and also measurable functions ff. In the latter case, the interpolation method connects the two non-degeneracies of variables for finite nn and \infty. Random symbols are used for expressing the asymptotic expansion formula. Quasi tangent, quasi torsion and modified quasi torsion are introduced in this paper. We identify these random symbols for a certain quadratic form of a fractional Brownian motion and for a quadratic from of a fractional Brownian motion with random weights. For a quadratic form of a Brownian motion with random weights, we observe that our formula reproduces the formula originally obtained by the martingale expansion.
