Non-extensive thermodynamics is one of the most intriguing physics new frontiers. A large number of researchers have been successfully finding connections between the new concepts introduced by this new field and other complex systems already presented. In particular, Borland [Phys. Rev. E 57...

Foreign currency exchange rate policies of ASEAN member countries have undergone tremendous changes following the 1997 Asian financial crisis. In this paper, we study the fractal and long-memory characteristics in the volatility of five ASEAN founding members’ exchange rates with respect to US...

We explore the correlation-structure of a large class of random processes, driven by non-Gaussian Lévy noise sources with possibly infinite variances. Examples of such processes include Lévy motions, Lévy-driven Ornstein–Uhlenbeck motions, Lévy-driven moving-average processes, fractional...

This paper develops a multivariate long-memory stochastic volatility model which allows the multi-asset long-range dependence in the volatility process. The motivation is from the fact that both autocorrelations and cross-correlations of some proxies of exchange rate volatility exhibit strong...

We demonstrate that continuous-time FARIMA processes with α-stable noise provide a new stochastic tool for studying the solar flare phenomenon in the framework of fractional Langevin equation. Simple computer tests to check the origins of α-stability and self-similarity are implemented for...

Here we present a theoretical study on the main properties of Fractionally Integrated Exponential Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedastic (FIEGARCH) processes. We analyze the conditions for the existence, the invertibility, the stationarity and the ergodicity of these processes....

The presence of long-range memory in financial time series is a puzzling fact that challenges the established financial theory. We study the effect of liquidity on the efficiency (measured by the Hurst’s exponent) of the Thai Stock Market. According to our study, we find that: (i) the R/S...

The detection of long-range dependence in time series analysis is an important task to which this paper contributes by showing that whilst the theoretical definition of a long-memory (or long-range dependent) process is based on the autocorrelation function, it is not possible for long memory to...

This paper tests whether volatility for equity returns for emerging markets possesses long-range dependence. Furthermore, the assertion of whether long-range dependence is time-varying is checked through a rolling sample approach. The empirical results suggest that there exists long-range...

This paper describes an analysis of IP-network traffic in terms of the time variation of self-similarity. To get a comprehensive view of network traffic conditions in analyzing the degree of long-range dependence (LRD) of IP-network traffic, this paper used a self-organizing scheme-based...
