This paper develops an approach based on Gram-Charlier-like expansions for modeling financial series to take in due account features such as leptokurtosis. A Gram-Charlier-like expansion adjusts the moments of interest of a given distribution via its own orthogonal polynomials. This approach,...

Provides an analysis of dynamic modelling in econometrics by bridging the unit-root gap between structural and time series approaches and focusing on representation theorems of (co)integrated processes.The book also presents an analytical setting to guide the formulation and solution in closed...
