Ergodicity and mixing bounds for the Fisher-Snedecor diffusion

Abstract

We consider the Fisher-Snedecor diffusion; that is, the Kolmogorov-Pearson diffusion with the Fisher-Snedecor invariant distribution. In the nonstationary setting, we give explicit quantitative rates for the convergence rate of respective finite-dimensional distributions to that of the stationary Fisher-Snedecor diffusion, and for the $\beta$-mixing coefficient of this diffusion. As an application, we prove the law of large numbers and the central limit theorem for additive functionals of the Fisher-Snedecor diffusion and construct $P$-consistent and asymptotically normal estimators for the parameters of this diffusion given its nonstationary observation.
