This paper analyzes the cyclical behavior of Dow Jones by testing the existence of long memory through a new class of semiparametric ARFIMA models with HYGARCH errors (SEMIFARMA-HYGARCH); this class includes nonparametric deterministic trend, stochastic trend, short-range and long-range...

In this article, we propose two new semiparametric estimators in the wavelet domain in order to estimate the parameter of nonstationary long memory models. Compared to the Fourier transform, the advantage of the wavelet approach to analyze the behavior of nonstationary time series is that it can...

We give the limiting distribution of the least squares estimator in the polynomial regression model driven by some long memory processes. We prove that with an appropriate normalization, the estimation error converges, in distribution, to a random vector which components are a mixture of...

The aim of this paper is to study the dynamics of the US real effective exchange rate by capturing nonlinearity and long memory features. In this context, we use the family of fractionally integrated STAR (FISTAR) models proposed by van Dijk, Franses and Paap (2002) in the case when the...
