自回归运动规律的通解AI 解读

We provide a complete description of the set of all solutions to a vector autoregressive law of motion. Every solution is shown to be the sum of three components, each corresponding to a directed flow of time. One component flows forward from the arbitrarily distant past, one flows backward from the arbitrarily distant future, and one flows outward from time zero. The three components are obtained by applying three complementary spectral projections to the solution, these…

马尔可夫调制下停止 Lévy 过程的尾部行为AI 解读

This article concerns the tail probabilities of a light-tailed Markov-modulated Lévy process stopped at a state-dependent Poisson rate. The tails are shown to decay exponentially at rates given by the unique positive and negative roots of the spectral abscissa of a certain matrix-valued function. We illustrate the use of our results with an application to the stationary distribution of wealth in a simple economic model in which agents with constant absolute risk aversion are…

改进的洛伦兹占优非参数自助检验AI 解读

One income or wealth distribution is said to Lorenz dominate another when the Lorenz curve for the former is nowhere below that of the latter, indicating a (weakly) more equitable allocation of resources. Existing tests of the null of Lorenz dominance based on pairs of samples of income or wealth achieve the nominal rejection rate asymptotically when the two Lorenz curves are equal, but are conservative at other null configurations. We propose new nonparametric bootstrap…

Copula 对称性的随机化检验AI 解读

New nonparametric tests of copula exchangeability and radial symmetry are proposed. The novel aspect of the tests is a resampling procedure that exploits group invariance conditions associated with the relevant symmetry hypothesis. They may be viewed as feasible versions of randomization tests of symmetry, the latter being inapplicable due to the unobservability of marginals. Our tests are simple to compute, control size asymptotically, consistently detect arbitrary forms of…

I(1) 与 I(2) 自回归希尔伯特空间过程的表示AI 解读

We develop versions of the Granger–Johansen representation theorems for I(1) and I(2) vector autoregressive processes that apply to processes taking values in an arbitrary complex separable Hilbert space. This more general setting is of central relevance for statistical applications involving functional time series. An I(1) or I(2) solution to an autoregressive law of motion is obtained when the inverse of the autoregressive operator pencil has a pole of first or second…

定价核单调性的实证检验AI 解读

Summary A large class of asset pricing models predicts that securities which have high payoffs when market returns are low tend to be more valuable than those with high payoffs when market returns are high. More generally, we expect the projection of the stochastic discount factor on the market portfolio—that is, the discounted pricing kernel evaluated at the market portfolio—to be a monotonically decreasing function of the market portfolio. Numerous recent empirical studies…

密度比序的非参数检验AI 解读

We study a family of nonparametric tests of density ratio ordering between two continuous probability distributions on the real line. Density ratio ordering is satisfied when the two distributions admit a nonincreasing density ratio. Equivalently, density ratio ordering is satisfied when the ordinal dominance curve associated with the two distributions is concave. To test this property, we consider statistics based on the L p -distance between an empirical ordinal dominance…

基于 Copula 的时间不可逆 Markov 模型AI 解读

Economic and financial time series frequently exhibit time irreversible dynamics. For instance, there is considerable evidence of asymmetric fluctuations in many macroeconomic and financial variables, and certain game theoretic models of price determination predict asymmetric cycles in price series. In this paper, we make two primary contributions to the econometric literature on time reversibility. First, we propose a new test of time reversibility, applicable to stationary…

阿基米德 Copula 与时间依赖AI 解读

We study the dependence properties of stationary Markov chains generated by Archimedean copulas. Under some simple regularity conditions, we show that regular variation of the Archimedean generator at zero and one implies geometric ergodicity of the associated Markov chain. We verify our assumptions for a range of Archimedean copulas used in applications.
