We consider linearity testing in a general class of nonlinear time series models of order one, involving a nonnegative nuisance parameter that (a) is not identified under the null hypothesis and (b) gives the linear model when equal to zero. This paper studies the asymptotic distribution of the...

We establish the strong consistency and asymptotic normality of the quasi-maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE) of the parameters of a class of multivariate asymmetric generalized autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic processes, allowing for cross leverage effects. The conditions required...

The aim of this paper is the study of the path solutions of a multivariate rational expectations model. We describe several procedures for solving such dynamic systems based on either the adjoint operator method or the Smith form. As a by-product, we derive the dimension of the set of solutions...

Standard risk measures, such as the value-at-risk (VaR), or the expected shortfall, have to be estimated, and their estimated counterparts are subject to estimation uncertainty. Replacing, in the theoretical formulas, the true parameter value by an estimator based on <italic>n</italic> observations of the profit...
