Wasserstein distance estimates for jump-diffusion processes

Probability 2022-12-12 v1

Abstract

We derive Wasserstein distance bounds between the probability distributions of a stochastic integral (It\^o) process with jumps (Xt)t[0,T](X_t)_{t\in [0,T]} and a jump-diffusion process (Xt)t[0,T](X^\ast_t)_{t\in [0,T]}. Our bounds are expressed using the stochastic characteristics of (Xt)t[0,T](X_t)_{t\in [0,T]} and the jump-diffusion coefficients of (Xt)t[0,T](X^\ast_t)_{t\in [0,T]} evaluated in XtX_t, and apply in particular to the case of different jump characteristics. Our approach uses stochastic calculus arguments and LpL^p integrability results for the flow of stochastic differential equations with jumps, without relying on the Stein equation.
