We consider kernel density and regression estimation for a wide class of nonlinear time series models. Asymptotic normality and uniform rates of convergence of kernel estimators are established under mild regularity conditions. Our theory is developed under the new framework of predictive...

We consider asymptotic properties of curve-crossing counts of linear processes and nonlinear time series by curves. Central limit theorems are obtained for curve-crossing counts of short-range dependent processes. For the long-range dependence case, the asymptotic distributions are shown to be...

We present two general results that can be used to obtain asymptotic properties for statistical functionals based on linear long-memory sequences. As examples for the first one we consider L- and V-statistics, in particular tail-dependent L-statistics as well as V-statistics with unbounded...

The paper considers the block sampling method for long-range dependent processes. Our theory generalizes earlier ones by Hall et al. (1998) [11] on functionals of Gaussian processes and Nordman and Lahiri (2005) [16] on linear processes. In particular, we allow nonlinear transforms of linear...

This paper establishes a central limit theorem and an invariance principle for a wide class of stationary random fields under natural and easily verifiable conditions. More precisely, we deal with random fields of the form Xk=g(εk−s,s∈Zd), k∈Zd, where (εi)i∈Zd are iid random variables...

Estimation of an unstructured covariance matrix is difficult because of its positive-definiteness constraint. This obstacle is removed by regressing each variable on its predecessors, so that estimation of a covariance matrix is shown to be equivalent to that of estimating a sequence of...

We prove the equivalence of the almost sure and complete convergence of a particular weighted sum of independent, identically distributed random variables investigated by [Chow]. Limiting behavior of weighted sums of independent random variables. Ann. Probab. 1, 810-824.

We consider the robust estimation of regression parameters in linear models with long memory and heavy-tailed errors. Asymptotic Bahadur-type representations of robust estimates are developed and their limiting distributions are obtained. It is shown that the limiting distributions are very...
