Interplay between positive feedbacks in the generalized CEV process

The dynamics of the {\em generalized} CEV process $dX_t = aX_t^n dt+ bX_t^m dW_t$ $(gCEV)$ is due to an interplay of two feedback mechanisms: State-to-Drift and State-to-Diffusion, whose degrees are $n$ and $m$ respectively. We particularly show that the gCEV, in which both feedback mechanisms are {\sc positive}, i.e. $n,m>1$, admits a stationary probability distribution $P$ provided that $n<2m-1$, which asymptotically decays as a power law $P(x) \sim \frac{1}{x^μ}$ with tail exponent $μ= 2m > 2$. Furthermore the power spectral density obeys $S(f) \sim \frac{1}{f^β}$, where $β= 2 - \:\frac{1+ε}{2(m-1)}$, $ε>0$. Bursting behavior of the gCEV is investigated numerically. Burst intensity $S$ and burst duration $T$ are shown to be related by $S\sim T^2$.
