By design a wavelet's strength rests in its ability to localize a process simultaneously in time-scalespace. The wavelet's ability to localize a time series in time-scale space directly leads to the computationalefficiency of the wavelet representation of a N £ N matrix operator by allowing...

It has been argued by several authors that the inflationary dynamics in Brazil follow a unit root process, thus displaying some inertia. Indeed, Cati, et al. (Journal of Applied Econometrics, 1999) have found that the inflationary dynamics in Brazil are nearly fully inertial. We estimate the...

Empirical support for the long-run Fisher effect, a hypothesis that a permanent change in inflation leads to an equal change in the nominal interest rate, has been hard to come by. This paper provides a plausible explanation of why past studies have been unable to find support for the long-run...
