Let a process SI , ... ,ST obey the conditionally heteroskedastic equation St = Vt Et whcrc Et is a random noise and Vt is the volatility coefficient which in turn obeys an autoregression type equation log v t = w + a S t- l + nt with an additional noise nt. We consider the situation which the...

We show that the empirical process of the squared residuals of an ARCH(p) sequence converges in distribution 1,0 a Gaussirm process B(F(t)) +t f(t) e, where F is the distribution function of the squared innovations, f its derivative, {B(tl, 0 <; t>1} a Brownian bridge and e a normal random variable....</;>
