We examine the interactions between growth in CO 2 emissions, economic production, and energy use at the global and multi-regional levels over the period 1990-2014. Methodologically, we use causal discovery that relies on linear and nonlinear tests of conditional independence to study their...

: This paper analyzes the dynamics of the US inflation time series using two classes of models: structural change models and long memory processes. For the first class, the Markov Switching Autoregressive (MS-AR) model of Hamilton (1989) and the Structural Change-Autoregressive (SCH-AR) model...

This paper develops a method for pricing bivariate contingent claims under General Autoregressive Conditionally Heteroskedastic (GARCH) process. As the association between the underlying assets may vary over time, the dynamic copula with time-varying parameter offers a better alternative to any...

Business surveys are an important element in the analysis of the short-term economic situation because of the timeliness and nature of the information they convey. Especially, surveys are often involved in econometric models in order to provide an early assessment of the current state of the...

We identify and examine the presence of the long memory in equity returns and more generally in specific transformations of these returns, on both the US and European stock markets. Taking into account the persistence phenomenon, we analyze the effect of the splitting of the sample period on the...

In order to measure the interdependence between different markets, we investigate and compare different measures of dependence including cross-correlation, conditional correlation, concordance and correlation in tails. In the latter case, we use the notion of copula and we define two kinds of...
