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...

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...

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the maxima of a general class of deterministic chaotic processes –including the Tent map and the Logistic map -, of noisy chaotic processes, and of the Gaussian long memory k-factor Genebauer processes.

Let {X1,X2,...} be a sequence of independent and identically distributed positive random variables of Pareto-type and let be a mixed Poisson process independent of the Xi's. For any fixed t[greater-or-equal, slanted]0, define:if N(t)[greater-or-equal, slanted]1 and TN(t):=0 otherwise. We...
