In this paper we discuss different aspects of long memory behavior and applicable parametric models. We discuss the confusion that can arise when the empirical autocorrelation function decreases in a hyperbolic way.

Multiple Frame Survey has been originally proposed, according to an optimality approach, in order to persecute survey cost savings, especially in the case of a complete list available but expensive to sample. In the modern sampling practice it is frequent the case where a total and up-to-date...

There is a continuing need to use recent and consistent multisectoral economic data to support policy analysis and the development of economywide models. Updating and estimating input-output tables and Social Accounting Matrices (SAMs) for a recent year is a difficult and a challenging problem....

We investigate some statistical properties of the new k-factor Gegenbauer process with heteroscedastic noises One of the goals of the paper is to give tools which permit to use this model to explain the behaviour of certain data sets in finance and in macroeconomics. Monte Carlo experiments are...

Using Archimedean copulas, we investigate the dependence structure existing between several series of financial assets log-returns that come from different markets. These series are considered as components of a portfolio and they are investigated on a long period including high shocks. To...

Some crucial time series of market data, such as electricity spot prices, exhibit long memory, in the sense of slowly-decaying correlations combined with heteroscedasticity. To e able to model such a behaviour, we consider the k-factor GIGARCH process and we propose two methods to address the...

In this article, we specify the different approaches followed by the economists and the financial economists in order to use chaos theory. We explain the main difference using this theory with other research domains like the mathematics and the physics. Finally, we present tools necessary for...
