This note explores the persistence properties of a class of models proposed by Jones, Manuelli and Siu (2000) where growth stems from purposeful human capital accumulation. In doing so, we adopt Cogley and Nason's (1995) definition of output persistence. The propagation mechanism exhibited by...

We apply the measure of dynamic correlation developed by Croux, Forni and Reichlin (2001) [A measure of comovement for economic variables: theory and empirics. Review of Economics and Statistics 83, 232-241] to the relation between the quarterly rates of unemployment and labor productivity...

In this paper an original estimator of long memory is considered. It is based on the scaling function directly extracted from multifractal formalism. Monte Carlo simulations show that the scaling function gives interesting results, notably in terms of confidence intervals, which are smaller than...
