Convolution copula econometrics

From MaRDI portal





The goal of the book is to gather the main concepts of copula function theory that can be applied to the analysis of time series (so-called convolution-based copulas), and some new ideas, linked to copulas, such as estimation of copula-based Markov processes. Due to the complexity of the subject, the analysis is limited to the univariate setting and the standard first-order Markov processes, that is the AR(1) model. The book consists of 5 chapters. Chapter 1 explores the use of nonparametric analysis that are typical of copula function applications to detect nonlinearities in a time series model. Chapter 2 is mainly focused on the estimation issue. The issue of representation and estimation of Markov processes with copula functions is addressed in Chapter 3. Chapter 4 develops the theory of convolution-based copulas and shows how to estimate and simulate copula of this kind. Finally, Chapter 5 presents an application to the analysis of the dynamics of the short-term interest rate. The book will be useful for the researchers working in econometrics, interest rate, Markov processes and copulas fields.
