We consider various MIDAS (Mixed Data Sampling) regression models to predict volatility. The models differ in the specification of regressors (squared returns, absolute returns, realized volatility, realized power, and return ranges), in the use of daily or intra-daily (5-minute) data, and in...

In this paper we provide a systematic study of the robustness of probability limits and central limit theory for realised multipower variation when we add finite activity and infinite activity jump processes to an underlying Brownian semimartingale.

This paper presents the study of a structure composed of a wind turbine, a speed multiplier and an asynchronous generator coupled to the infinite power network through a line of energy transfer electric modelled by an R–L circuit. After modelling of the global system, the behaviour of the...

In this paper we provide a systematic study of the robustness of probability limits and central limit theory for realised multipower variation when we add finite activity and infinite activity jump processes to an underlying Brownian semimartingale.

In this paper we provide an asymptotic analysis of generalised bipower measures of the variation of price processes in financial economics. These measures encompass the usual quadratic variation, power variation and bipower variations which have been highlighted in recent years in financial...

This paper analyses multivariate high frequency financial data using realised covariation. We provide a new asymptotic distribution theory for standard methods such as regression, correlation analysis and covariance. It will be based on a fixed interval of time (e.g. a day or week), allowing the...

In this paper we review some recent work on limit results on realised power variation, that is sums of powers of absolute increments of various semimartingales. A special case of this analysis is realised variance and its probability limit, quadratic variation. Such quantities often appear in...

This paper considers 100 stocks from 10 sectors over the period 2000 to 2010 to examine the impact of market conditions, sector type and horizon on the forecasting performance of various volatility models. Out-of-sample forecasts are generated with standard daily GARCH and with ARFIMA/HAR models...

We develop the asymptotic theory for the realised power variation of the processes X = f • G, where G is a Gaussian process with stationary increments. More specifically, under some mild assumptions on the variance function of the increments of G and certain regularity condition on the path of...

This paper provides limit distribution results for power variation, that is sums of powers of absolute increments, for certain types of time-changed Brownian motion and $\alpha $-stable processes. Special cases of these processes are stochastic volatility models used extensively in financial...
