We consider semi parametric estimation of the long-memory parameter of a stationaryprocess in the presence of an additive nonparametric mean function. We use a semi parametric Whittle type estimator, applied to the tapered, differenced series. Since the mean function is not necessarily...

We consider the asymptotic behavior of log-periodogram regression estimators ofthe memory parameter in long-memory stochastic volatility models, under the nullhypothesis of short memory in volatility. We show that in this situation, if theperiodogram is computed from the log squared returns,...
