MIXING AND MOMENT PROPERTIES OF VARIOUS GARCH AND STOCHASTIC VOLATILITY MODELS
为广义随机系数自回归和隐马尔可夫模型提供结果,进而给出多种GARCH、随机波动率等模型满足β混合和有限高阶矩的易验证条件,对统计推断有重要价值。
This paper first provides some useful results on a generalized random coefficient autoregressive model and a generalized hidden Markov model. These results simultaneously imply strict stationarity, existence of higher order moments, geometric ergodicity, and β-mixing with exponential decay rates, which are important properties for statistical inference. As applications, we then provide easy-to-verify sufficient conditions to ensure β-mixing and finite higher order moments for various linear and nonlinear GARCH(1,1), linear and power GARCH( p , q ), stochastic volatility, and autoregressive conditional duration models. For many of these models, our sufficient conditions for existence of second moments and exponential β-mixing are also necessary. For several GARCH(1,1) models, our sufficient conditions for existence of higher order moments again coincide with the necessary ones in He and Terasvirta (1999, Journal of Econometrics 92, 173–192).
