| dc.description.abstractEn | This paper deals with the numerical approximation of normalizing constants produced by particle methods, in the general framework of Feynman-Kac sequences of measures. It is well-known that the corresponding estimates satisfy a central limit theorem for a fixed time horizon n as the number of particles N goes to infinity. Here, we study the situation where both n and N go to infinity in such a way that lim n→∞ . In this context, Pitt et al. \cite{pitt2012} recently conjectured that a lognormal central limit theorem should hold. We formally establish this result here, under general regularity assumptions on the model. We also discuss special classes of models (time-homogeneous environment and ergodic random environment) for which more explicit descriptions of the limiting bias and variance can be obtained. | |
