Slepian and Sudakov-Fernique type inequalities, which com- pare expectations of maxima of Gaussian random vectors under certain restrictions on the covariance matrices, play an important role in probability theory, especially in empirical process and extreme value theories. Here we give explicit...

This paper investigates the asymptotic properties of the Gaussian quasi-maximum-likelihood estimators (QMLE.s) of the GARCH model augmented by including an additional explanatory variable - the so-called GARCH-X model. The additional covariate is allowed to exhibit any degree of persistence as...
