The serial dependency of multivariate financial data will often be filtered by considering the residuals of univariate GARCH models adapted to every single series. This is the correct filtering strategy if the multivariate process follows a so-called copula based multivariate dynamic model...

The wavelet transform is used to identify a biannual and an annual seasonalityin the Phelix Day Peak and to separate the long-term trend from its short-termmotion. The short-term/long-term model for commodity prices of Schwartz &Smith (2000) is applied but generalised to account for weekly...

Zhang (2008) defines the quotient correlation coefficient to test for dependence and tail dependence of bivariate random samples. He shows that asymptotically the test statistics are gamma distributed. Therefore, he called the corresponding test gamma test. We want to investigate the speed of...

We generalize the results for statistical functionals given by [Fernholz, 1983] and [Serfling, 1980] to M estimates for samples drawn for an ergodic and stationary martingale sequence. In a first step, we take advantage of some recent results on the uniform convergency of the empirical...

We proof that Hadamard differentiability in addition with usual assumptions on the loss function for M estimates implies differentiability in quadratic mean. Thus both concepts are exchangeable. -- Hadamard differential ; Differentiability in quadratic mean

In this article consistency and asymptotic normality of the quasi-maximum likelihood esti- mator (QMLE) in the class of polynomial augmented generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity models (GARCH) is proven. The result extend the results of (Berkes et al., 2003) and (Francq and...
