Strict stationarity of Poisson integer-valued ARCH processes of order infinity

Segnon, Mawuli


Abstract

This paper establishes necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a unique strictly stationary and ergodic solution for integer-valued autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (INARCH) processes. We also provide conditions that guarantee existence of higher order moments. The results apply to integer-valued GARCH model, and its long-memory versions with hyperbolically decaying coefficients and turn out to be instrumental on deriving large sample properties of the maximum likelihood estimators of the model parameters.
