This article attempts to verify the presence of long memory in volatility in the Indian foreign exchange market using daily bilateral returns of the Indian Rupee against the US dollar from 17/02/1994 to 08/11/2013. In the first part of the analysis the presence of long-term dependence is...

In this article, we analyze informational efficiency in daily returns of NASDAQ, DJIA and S&P 500 indices ranging from 04-01-1980 to 12-09-2013.We replace the traditional coarse graining method used in multi-scale entropy analysis by a Maximal Overlap Discreet Wavelet Transform decomposition and...

In this paper we derive the closed loop form of the Expected Optimal Feedback rule, sometimes called passive learning stochastic control, with time varying parameters. As such this paper extends the work of Kendrick (Stochastic control for economic models, <CitationRef CitationID="CR13">1981</CitationRef>; Stochastic control for economic...</citationref>

This paper con?rms that, as originally reported in Seneta (2004, p. 183), it is impossible to replicate Madan et al.?s (1998) results using log daily returns on S&P 500 Index from January 1992 to September 1994. This failure leads to a close investigation of the computational problems associated...

Comparisons of various methods for solving stochastic control economic models can be done with Monte Carlo methods. These methods have been applied to simple one-state, one-control quadraticlinear tracking models; however, large outliers may occur in a substantial number of the Monte Carlo runs...

As pointed out in Amin e Mabe (2000, p. 1), the journal impact factor (IF) “has moved in recent years from an obscure bibliometric indicator to become the chief quantitative measure of the quality of a journal, its research papers, the researchers who wrote those papers, and even the...

In this paper we derive, by using dynamic programming, the closed loop form of the Expected Optimal Feedback rule with time varying parameter. As such this paper extends the work of Kendrick (1981, 2002, Chapter 6) for the time varying parameter case. Furthermore, we show that the Beck and...
