A Theoretical Comparison Between Integrated and Realized Volatilies
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2001)
In this paper, we provide both qualitative and quantitative measures of the cost of measuring the integrated volatility by the realized volatility when the frequency of observation is fixed. We start by characterizing for ...
Exact Nonparametric Two-Sample Homogeneity Tests for Possibly Discrete Distributions
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2001)
In this paper, we study several tests for the equality of two unknown distributions. Two are based on empirical distribution functions, three others on nonparametric probability density estimates, and the last ones on ...
An Eigenfunction Approach for Volatility Modeling
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2001)
In this paper, we introduce a new approach for volatility modeling in discrete and continuous time. We follow the stochastic volatility literature by assuming that the variance is a function of a state variable. However, ...
