Transportation inequalities for stochastic differential equations driven by a fractional Brownian motion

Abstract

We establish Talagrand's $T_1$ and $T_2$ inequalities for the law of the solution of a stochastic differential equation driven by a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H>1/2$. We use the $L^2$ metric and the uniform metric on the path space of continuous functions on $[0,T]$. These results are applied to study small-time and large-time asymptotics for the solutions of such equations by means of a Hoeffding-type inequality.Comment: Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.3150/10-BEJ324 the Bernoulli (http://isi.cbs.nl/bernoulli/) by the International Statistical Institute/Bernoulli Society (http://isi.cbs.nl/BS/bshome.htm
