Local M-estimation for jump-diffusion processes

In this paper, we develop local M-estimation for the infinitesimal moments in the jump-diffusion model based on discrete-time observations. The consistency and asymptotic normality of the local M-estimators for the infinitesimal moments are obtained under mild conditions. The simulation studies demonstrate that the proposed estimators perform well in robustness.
