Abstract

This paper studies nonparametric kernel type (smoothed) estimation of quantiles for long memory stationary sequences. The uniform strong consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimates with rates are established. Finite sample behaviors are investigated in a small Monte Carlo simulation study.
