Fractional Brownian motions(fBMs) are not semimartingales so the classical theory of It\^o integral can't apply to fBMs. Wick integration as one of the applications of Malliavin calculus to stochastic analysis is a fine definition for fBMs.…

The Bayesian Hurst-Kolmogorov (HK) method estimates the Hurst exponent of a time series more accurately than the age-old detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA), especially when the time series is short. However, this advantage comes at the…

Fractional Brownian motion is a Gaussian process x(t) with zero mean and two-time correlations <x(t)x(s)> ~ t^{2H} + s^{2H} - |t-s|^{2H}, where H, with 0<H<1 is called the Hurst exponent. For H = 1/2, x(t) is a Brownian motion, while for H…
