A general framework for analyzing estimates in nonlinear time series is developed. General conditions for strong consistency and asymptotic normality are derived both for conditional least squares and maximum likelihood types estimates. Ergodie strictly stationary processes are studied in the...

Various parameters for measuring the deviation from stationarity for processes belonging to two classes of nonstationarity processes are proposed. Several new results for the two types of processes are obtained. Points of contact are established with the class of oscillatory processes and with...
