Understanding and modeling dependence structures for multivariate extreme values are of interest in a number of application areas. One of the well-known approaches is to investigate the Pickands dependence function. In the bivariate setting, there exist several estimators for estimating the...

Fan and Yao (1998) proposed an efficient method to estimate the conditional variance of heteroskedastic regression models. Chen, Cheng, and Peng (2009) applied variance reduction techniques to the estimator of Fan and Yao (1998) and proposed a new estimator for conditional variance to account...

Modeling portfolio credit risk involves the default dependencies between the individual securities in a portfolio. The copula is a common approach to construct it. It parameterizes the joint distribution of individual defaults independently of their marginal distributions. The current market...

China’s urban agricultural development takes on stage evolution, and functional structure, customer structure, industrial organization, innovation activity, spatial form and industrial value of each stage has significant difference. Using the system variable analysis method, this paper...

This paper uses a set of unique data from Chinese listed companies to examine the influence of analyst coverage on corporate philanthropy. Results show that companies followed by more analysts engage in more philanthropy, which provides support for the reputational capital view of corporate...

The mathematical model is often used for fitting the trend of changes in cultivated land resources in the land use planning, but the fitting effect is different in different study areas. In this paper, we take two geographically adjacent cities with great differences in the economic development...

Since high temperature superconducting magnetic energy storage system (HT SMES) has attracted significant attention for their fast response in milliseconds, high efficiency (cyclic efficiency over 95%) and unlimited times of charging and discharging cycles, it can be used for system stabilizing...
