Using generalized functions of random variables and generalized Taylor series expansions, we provide quick demonstrations of the asymptotic theory for the LAD estimator in a regression model setting. The approach is justified by the smoothing that is delivered in the limit by the asymptotics, whereby the generalized functions are forced to appear as linear functionals wherein they become real valued. Models with fixed and random regressors, and autoregressions with infinite variance errors are studied. Some new analytic results are obtained including an asymptotic expansion of the distribution of the LAD estimator.

Necessary And Sufficient

abstractNecessary and sufficient analytical conditions are given for homogeneous multiple Wiener-Itô integral processes (MWIs) to be mixing, and sufficient conditions are given for mixing of general square-integrable Gaussian-subordinated processes. It is shown that every finite or infinite sum Y of MWIs (i.e. every real square-integrable stationary polynomial form in the variables of an underlying weakly mixing Gaussian process) is mixing if the process defined separately by each homogeneous-order term is mixing, and that this condition is necessary for a large class of Gaussian-subordinated processes. Moreover, for homogeneous MWIs Y1, for sums of MWIs of order ≤ 3, and for a large class of square-integrable infinite sums Y1, of MWIs, mixing holds if and only if Y2 has correlation-function decaying to zero for large lags. Several examples of the criteria for mixing are given, including a second-order homogeneous MWI, i.e. a degree two polynomial form, orthogonal to all linear forms, which has auto-correlations tending to zero for large lags but is not mixing.

Data Points

The least squares estimators β i(N), j = 1, …, p, from N data points, of the autoregressive constants for a stationary autoregressive model are considered when the disturbances have a distribution attracted to a stable law of index α < 2. It is shown that N1/δ(β i(N) – β) converges almost surely to zero for any δ > α. Some comments are made on alternative definitions of the βi (N).

AbstractThe main purpose of the paper is to give necessary and sufficient conditions for the almost sure boundedness of (Sn – αn)/B(n), where Sn = X1 + X2 + … + XmXi being independent and identically distributed random variables, and αnand B(n) being centering and norming constants. The conditions take the form of the convergence or divergence of a series of a geometric subsequence of the sequence P(Sn − αn > a B(n)), where a is a constant. The theorem is distinguished from previous similar results by the comparative weakness of the subsidiary conditions and the simplicity of the calculations. As an application, a law of the iterated logarithm general enough to include a result of Feller is derived.
