Popis: We consider the quasi-stationary distribution of the classical Shiryaev diffusion restricted to the interval $[0,A]$ with absorption at a fixed $A>0$. We derive analytically a closed-form formula for the distribution's fractional moment of an {\em arbitrary} given order $s\in\mathbb{R}$; the formula is consistent with that previously found by Polunchenko and Pepelyshev (2018) for the case of $s\in\mathbb{N}$. We also show by virtue of the formula that, if $s<1$, then the $s$-th fractional moment of the quasi-stationary distribution becomes that of the exponential distribution (with mean $1/2$) in the limit as $A\to+\infty$; the limiting exponential distribution is the stationary distribution of the reciprocal of the Shiryaev diffusion.
