Abstract In this paper we consider a general control scheme. The control statistic Z t is equal to an arbitrary weighted sum of the past observations X t ,..., X 1 . This approach covers most of the applied control schemes like for instance moving average, EWMA and ARMA(1,1) charts. The process...

Abstract In this paper we consider the portfolio weights obtained by maximizing the expected quadratic utility function. The unknown parameters of the return process, the mean vector and the covariance matrix, are estimated by their sample counterparts. Assuming independent and multivariate...

Abstract In this paper, we consider the sample estimators for the expected return, the variance, the value-at-risk (VaR), and the conditional VaR (CVaR) of the minimum VaR and the minimum CVaR portfolio. Their exact distributions are derived. These expressions are used for studying the...

Abstract In this paper we analyse the properties of hierarchical Archimedean copulas. This class is a generalisation of the Archimedean copulas and allows for general non-exchangeable dependency structures. We show that the structure of the copula can be uniquely recovered from all bivariate...

The production of wind power as one source of renewable energy has a huge potential to serve the increasing demand for energy. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the accuracy of wind energy forecasts to increase the energy output. We focus on short-term wind speed forecasts. This article...

In this paper we derive the asymptotic distributions of the estimated weights and of estimated performance measures of the minimum value-at-risk portfolio and of the minimum conditional value-at-risk portfolio assuming that the asset returns follow a strictly stationary process. It is proved...

The purpose of this paper is to jointly monitor the mean vector and the covariance matrix of multivariate nonlinear times series. The underlying target process is assumed to be a constant conditional correlation process Bollerslev (Rev Econ Stat 72:498–505, <CitationRef CitationID="CR5">1990</CitationRef>) or a dynamic conditional...</citationref>

In this paper we deal with the problem of outliers in a multivariate ARMA-process. The location of the suspicious values is assumed to be known. In order to estimate the parameters, the maximum likelihood method is applied. The estimators are shown to be strong consistent, if the degree of...
