Conjecture on weakening the regularity conditions for the discretization-error central limit theorem
Regularity-reduction conjecture. The regularity conditions required for this central limit theorem can be reduced to those of Proposition 1 of Mykland and Zhang.

Conjecture that the extreme value index influences jump-detection rates and thresholds
An extreme value index describes the tail behavior of the noise distribution at its minimum; the conjecture concerns how this index affects the statistical analysis of high-frequen…

The news-driven volatility-jump correlation conjecture
Consider news effects that trigger contemporaneous price and volatility jumps. Call a price jump upward or downward according to its sign, and call a volatility jump upward when vo…

The truncation-bound conjecture for discontinuous leverage estimation
Let denote the truncation parameter in the estimator for the discontinuous leverage effect, and suppose the estimator is considered under the assumptions and finite-jump-a…

Conjecture on efficiency of parametric estimators in the local parametric model
Let be a parametric estimator that achieves the Cramér–Rao efficiency bound, and suppose the local parametric model satisfies the assumptions leading to the ce…

Asymptotic efficiency of the quasi-likelihood estimator for general diffusion processes
The paper considers parametric inference for diffusion processes observed nonsynchronously and contaminated by market microstructure noise. It constructs a quasi-likelihood estimat…

The general lower-bound conjecture for noisy high-frequency volatility estimation
General lower-bound conjecture. The analogous asymptotic variance determined for the general model should constitute the general lower bound.
