This paper examines the limiting properties of the estimated parameters in the random field regression model recently proposed by Hamilton (Econometrica, 2001). Though the model is parametric, it enjoys the flexibility of the nonparametric approach since it can approximate a large collection of...

In this paper consistency and asymptotic normality of the quasi maximum like-lihood estimator in the level-effect ARCH model of Chan, Karolyi, Longstaff and Sanders (1992) is established. We consider explicitly the case where the parameters of the conditional heteroskedastic process are in the...
