A renormalized rough path over fractional Brownian motion. (English) Zbl 1276.60048
Let $$\Gamma_t= (\Gamma_t(1),\dotsc,\Gamma_t(d))$$ be a $$d$$-dimensional path not differentiable, but only $$\alpha$$-Hölder for some $$\alpha\in(0, 1)$$. Then the iterated integral of $$\Gamma$$ is not canonically defined. Rough path theory presents a way to overcome this difficulty. A rough path over $$\Gamma$$ is a substitute for iterated integrals $\int^t_s d\Gamma_{t_1}(i_1)\dotsm \int^{t_{n-1}}_s d\Gamma_{i_n}(i_n),$ defined by the Hölder-continuity condition and two algebraic conditions called Chen property and Shuffle property. The author remarks that, if $$\Gamma$$ is differentiable, the iterated integral has the Chen and Shuffle properties.
The existence of a rough path for a finite $$p$$-variation path was proved by T. Lyons and N. Victoir [Ann. Inst. Henri Poincaré, Anal. Non Linéaire 24, No. 5, 835–847 (2007; Zbl 1134.60047)], but this needed the axiom of choice, so it is not canonical.
In this paper, a canonical construction of a rough path over a fractional Brownian motion with arbitrary Hurst index is given (Theorem 0.1).
For this purpose, Hopf algebras $$H$$ of decorated rooted trees, and the shuffle algebra $$Sh$$ are introduced. A rough path over $$\Gamma$$ is a functional $$J^{ts}_\Gamma(i_1,\dotsc, i_n)$$, $$n\leq [1/\alpha]$$, $$i_1,\dotsc, i_n\in [1,\dotsc, d]$$, such that $$J^{ts}_\Gamma(i)= \Gamma_t(i)- \Gamma_s(i)$$. Constructing $$J^{ts}_\Gamma$$ using the skeleton integral which is a regularization of the iterated integral, it is shown $$J^{ts}_\Gamma$$ is a character of $$Sh$$ (Proposition 1.4). Then adopting the author’s Fourier normal ordering algorithm [Commun. Math. Phys. 298, No. 1, 1–36 (2010; Zbl 1221.46047)], $$J^{ts}_\Gamma$$ is shown to satisfy the Chen and Shuffle properties (Proposition 1.11).
To obtain a Hölder continuous path as a function of $$s$$ and $$t$$ for any $$\alpha-\varepsilon$$, $$\varepsilon> 0$$ provided $$1/\alpha\not\in\mathbb{N}$$, the skeleton integrals of the harmonic representation of the fractional Brownian motion $B_1(i)= (2\pi c_\alpha)^{-{1\over 2}} \int {e^{it\xi}- 1\over i\xi}\,|\xi|^{{1\over 2}-\alpha} W_\xi(i),\quad 1\leq i\leq d,$ are interpreted from the Feynman-integral point of view (Section 2). Then, applying Bogolioubov-Parasiuk-Hepp-Zimmerman renormalization scheme (cf. [K. Hepp, Commun. Math. Phys. 2, No. 4, 301–326 (1966; Zbl 1222.81219)]), a rough path over a fractional Brownian motion is constructed (Section 4 and 5).
