For a particular conditionally heteroscedastic nonlinear (ARCH) process for which the conditional variance of the observable sequence rt is the square of an inhomogeneous linear combination of rs, s < t, we give conditions under which, for integers 1 > 2, r' has long memory autocorrelation and normalized partial sums of ri converge to fractional...</t,>

We consider the long memory and leverage properties of a model for the conditional variance of an observable stationary sequence, where the conditional variance is the square of an inhomogeneous linear combination of past values of the observable sequence, with square summable weights. This...

Smoothed nonparametric estimates of the spectral density matrix at zero frequency have been widely used in econometric inference, because they can consistently estimate the covariance matrix of a partial sum of a possibly dependent vector process. When elements of the vector process exhibit long...

Semiparametric estimates of long memory seem useful in the analysis of long financial time series because they are consistent under much broader conditions than parametric estimates. However, recent large sample theory for semiparametric estimates forbids conditional heteroscedasticity. We show...

Much time series data are recorded on economic and financial variables. Statistical modeling of such data is now very well developed, and has applications in forecasting. We review a variety of statistical models from the viewpoint of "memory", or strength of dependence across time, which is a...

The semiparametric local Whittle or Gaussian estimate of the long memory parameter is known to have especially nice limiting distributional properties, being asymptotically normal with a limiting variance that is completely known. However in moderate samples the normal approximation may not be...

This paper develops methods of investigating the existence and extent of cointegration in fractionally integrated systems. We focus on stationary series, with some discussion of extension to nonstationarity. The setting is semiparametric, so that modelling is effectively confined to a...
