Local limit theorems for transition densities are proved. The observation time [0,T] may be fixed or lim n T = 0, where nh = T and h is a mesh between two neighboring observation points.ProbabilityStatistics Theory62G07, 60G60Small time asymptotics in local limit theorems for Markov chains converging to diffusionstext
