Given a process with independent increments X (not necessarily a martingale) and a large class of square integrable r.v. H = f(X T ), f being the Fourier transform of a finite measure μ, we provide a direct expression for Kunita-Watanabe and Föllmer-Schweizer decompositions of H. The...

The assumption of linearity is implicitly accepted in the process which generates a time series condition submitted to a ARIMA. That is why, in this paper, we shall discuss the research of long memory in the processes: the fractional ARIMA models, denoted as ARFIMA, where d and D, the degree of...
