Random Carbon Tax Policy and Investment Into Emission Abatement Technologies
ABSTRACT We analyze the problem of a profit‐maximizing electricity producer, subject to carbon taxes, who decides on investments into CO2$\rm CO_2$ abatement technologies. We assume that the carbon tax policy is random and that the investment in the abatement technology is divisible, irreversible, and subject to transaction costs.

Relative Arbitrage Opportunities With Interactions Among N Investors
ABSTRACT The relative arbitrage portfolio outperforms a benchmark portfolio over a given time‐horizon with probability one. With market price of risk processes depending on the market portfolio and investors, this paper analyzes the multi‐agent optimization of relative arbitrage opportunities in the coupled system of market and wealth dynamics.

Uniform Central Limit Theorem for martingales [PDF]
We study some sufficient conditions imposed on the sequence of martingale differences (m.d.) in the separable Banach spaces of continuous functions defined on the metric compact set for the Central Limit Theorem in this space.

Inference on the Attractor Space via Functional Approximation
ABSTRACT This paper discusses semiparametric inference on hypotheses on the cointegration and the attractor spaces for I(1)$$ I(1) $$ linear processes with moderately large cross‐sectional dimension. The approach is based on sample canonical correlations and functional approximation of Brownian motions, and it can be applied both to the whole system ...

Confidence Intervals for Price Discovery
ABSTRACT This paper discusses asymptotic and bootstrap confidence intervals for multivariate permanent‐transitory decompositions of cointegrated vector autoregressive I(1) systems, with a focus on price discovery. Alternative estimators of the permanent components are compared in terms of efficiency also under separable linear restrictions on the ...

Least Trimmed Squares: Cointegration and Outliers
ABSTRACT When applying the cointegrated autoregressive distributed lag model it is common to include indicator variables for outliers. This is often done in a somewhat ad hoc way. Least Trimmed Squares estimation provides a more systematic approach. This estimator is robust to a large number of outliers of many types.

ABSTRACT Forecasting economic activity during institutional collapse requires nowcasts derived exclusively from alternative data sources. Such sources are abundant yet theoretically unanchored and potentially weakly informative. This study examines whether sparse supervised dimension reduction extracts reliable signals in a context rich in data but ...

On the Foundational Arguments of Sufficient Dimension Reduction
Contemporary Sufficient Dimension Reduction, a versatile method for extracting material information from data, can serve as a preprocessor for classical modeling and inference, or as a standalone theory that leads directly to statistical inference. ABSTRACT Sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) refers to supervised methods of dimension reduction that ...

ABSTRACT Traditional short‐rate models introduce volatility directly into the instantaneous rate via Brownian shocks. However, empirical data suggest that short‐term interest rates exhibit smoother behavior than such models imply. We propose a two‐factor Gaussian short‐rate model in which the short rate is a deterministic exponential filter of a ...

Change Point Analysis for Functional Data Using Empirical Characteristic Functionals
ABSTRACT We develop a new method to detect change points in the distribution of functional data based on integrated CUSUM processes of empirical characteristic functionals. Asymptotic results are presented under conditions allowing for low‐order moments and serial dependence in the data establishing the limiting null‐distribution of the proposed test ...
