Empirical volatility studies have discovered nonstationary, long-memory dynamics in the volatility of the stock market and foreign exchange rates. This highly persistent, infinite variance - but still mean reverting - behavior is commonly found with nonparametric estimates of the fractional...

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...
