J. Istas et G. Lang, QUADRATIC VARIATIONS AND ESTIMATION OF THE LOCAL HOLDER INDEX OF A GAUSSIAN PROCESS, Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilites et statistiques, 33(4), 1997, pp. 407-436
We study the convergence of a generalisation of the quadratic variatio
ns of a Gaussian process. We build a convergent estimator of the local
Holder index of the sample paths and prove a central limit theorem.
