Partial and inverse extremograms for heavy-tailed processes.

現代風險管理需要對金融產品的相關結構做出刻畫,而在實際生活中,我們通常使用相關係數和自相關係數去刻畫這種結構。然而,越來越多的人意識到自相關函數在度量相關結構上面被高估了,特別是在風險管理中我們更關心極端事件。同樣的,偏自相關函數也有這樣的短板。在這篇論文中,我們在有限維分佈服從有正尾係數的正則變差的嚴平穩過程上定義了Partial Extremogram。 這個指標僅僅依賴於隨機過程中的極端值。我們給出了它的一個估計并且研究了這個估計的漸進性質。此外,为了刻畫时间序列的負相關結構,我們把 Inverse Tail Dependence 的想法推廣到了隨機過程上面並且引入了Inverse Extremogram 的概念。我們給出了Inverse Extremogram 在ARMA模型中的顯示表達式。理論推導和數據模擬都說明這個指標可以很好的刻畫出一個隨機過程的尾部的負相關結構。 / Modern risk management calls for deeper understanding of the dependence structure of financial products, which is usually measured by correlation or autocorrelation functions. More and more people realized that autocorrelation function is overvalued as a tool to measure dependence, especially when one has to deal with extremal events in risk management. Likewise, partial autocorrelation function also suffers similar shortcomings as autocorrelation function. In this thesis, an analog of the partial autocorrelation function for a strictly stationary sequence of random variables whose finite-dimensional distributions are jointly regularly varying with positive index, the partial extremogram, is introduced. This function only depends on the extremal events of the underlying process. A natural estimator of the partial extremogram is also proposed and its asymptotic properties are studied. Furthermore, to measure the negative dependence of a time series, the idea of inverse tail dependence is extended to a stochastic process and the notion of inverse extremogram is proposed. A closed form of the inverse extremogram for an ARMA model is deduced. The theoretical and simulation results show that the inverse extremogram is a useful tool for measuring the negative tail dependence of a process. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Chen, Pengcheng. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2013. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 53-56). / Abstracts also in Chinese. / Chapter 1 --- Introduction --- p.1 / Chapter 1.1 --- Tail Dependence --- p.2 / Chapter 1.2 --- Extremogram --- p.4 / Chapter 1.2.1 --- Regularly Varying Time Series --- p.4 / Chapter 1.2.2 --- Extremogram for Regularly Varying Time Series --- p.7 / Chapter 1.3 --- Motivation and Organization --- p.8 / Chapter 2 --- Partial Extremogram --- p.9 / Chapter 2.1 --- Definition of Partial Extremogram --- p.9 / Chapter 2.2 --- Applications of Partial Extremogram --- p.15 / Chapter 2.2.1 --- AR(1) Process --- p.15 / Chapter 2.2.2 --- MA(1) process --- p.17 / Chapter 2.2.3 --- Stochastic Volatility Model --- p.19 / Chapter 2.3 --- Estimation of Partial Extremogram --- p.19 / Chapter 2.4 --- Simulation Study --- p.22 / Chapter 3 --- Inverse Extremogram --- p.28 / Chapter 3.1 --- Definition of Inverse Extremogram --- p.28 / Chapter 3.2 --- Applications of Inverse Extremogram --- p.29 / Chapter 3.2.1 --- MA(q) Model --- p.29 / Chapter 3.2.2 --- MA(∞) Model --- p.35 / Chapter 3.2.3 --- ARMA Model --- p.40 / Chapter 3.2.4 --- GARCH Model and SV Model --- p.41 / Chapter 3.3 --- Simulation Study --- p.42 / Chapter 4 --- Conclusions and Further Research --- p.50 / Bibliography --- p.53
