Abstract

In this section, we consider nonlinear processes with long memory. We will mainly focus on volatility models: stochastic volatility (see Definitions 2.3–2.4 and Sect. 4.2.6 for limit theorems), ARCH(∞) processes (see Definition 2.1 and Sect. 4.2.7) and LARCH(∞) models (see (2.47) and (2.48), and Sect. 4.2.8). Statistical inference for traffic models is not well developed yet (see Faÿ et al. in Queueing Syst. 54(2):121–140, 2006, Bernoulli 13(2):473–491, 2007; Hsieh et al. in J. Econom. 141(2):913–949, 2007 for some results in this direction).
