β¦ Synopsis
For the pth-order linear ARCH model, St = gt~/O{O q-~lXt2_l q-0~2 X.2_2 +-.-q-o~pXtLp, where c~0 > 0, c~i~>0, i = 1, 2, ..., p, {et} is an i.i.d, normal white noise with E~, = 0, Ee~ = 1, and et is independent of {X~, s < t}, Engle (1982) obtained the necessary and sufficient condition for the second-order stationarity, that is, ~1 + c~2 -... + ~p < 1. In this note, we assume that et has the probability density function p(t) which is positive and lower-semicontinuous over the real line, but not necessarily Gaussian, then the geometric ergodicity of the ARCH(p) process is proved under Eet 2 = 1. When e, has only the first-order absolute moment, a sufficient condition for the geometric ergodicity is also given.

Recent developments in multivariate volatility modeling suggest that the conditional correlation matrix can be described by a time series recursion, where the total number of parameters grows by the power-of-two of the dimension of financial returns. The power of two computational requirement makes
We examine the Markov chain Xt = q~(Xt-i )+etb, where Xt = (x,, ..., x,\_p+~ )~, b = ( 1,0 ..... 0)L Under some appropriate conditions on q~, we show the ergodicity for {X,} when Eet 2 is suitable small, and the geometric ergodicity when Ee I~' 1 is suitably small.
In this note, the condition to ensure the L1 geometric ergodicity of a multivariate nonlinear AR model mixed with an ARCH term (also called conditional heteroscedastic autoregressive nonlinear model) is investigated. Under some mild conditions on the white noise process with ΓΏrst absolute moment, a
## ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate the performance of a class of Mβestimators for both symmetric and asymmetric conditional heteroscedastic models in the prediction of valueβatβrisk. The class of estimators includes the least absolute deviation (LAD), Huber's, Cauchy and Bβestimator, as well
