## ABSTRACT This paper examines the degree of persistence in the volatility of financial time series using a Long Memory Stochastic Volatility (LMSV) model. Specifically, it employs a Gaussian semiparametric (or local Whittle) estimator of the memory parameter, based on the frequency domain, propos
We investigate the probability distribution of the volatility return intervals ฯ for the Chinese stock market. We rescale both the probability distribution P q (ฯ ) and the volatility return intervals ฯ as P q (ฯ ) = 1/ฯ f (ฯ /ฯ ) to obtain a uniform scaling curve for different threshold value q. Th
