Semiparametric estimation in perturbed long memory series
(2005-05)
The estimation of the memory parameter in perturbed long memory series has recently attracted attention motivated especially by the strong persistence of the volatility in many financial and economic time series and the ...
Bayesian learning in mis-specified models
(2000-02)
A central unanswered question in economic theory is that of price formation in disequilibrium. This paper lays down the methodological groundwork for a model that has been suggested as an answer to this question (Arrow, ...
La Educación Ocupacional y la Salida del Paro en España
(1999-10)
[EN] This paper considers the estimation of the effect of vocational education on the probability of employment using Spanish data from the linked Active Population Survey (EPA) since 1992 to 1997. After allowing for ...
Sole Ownership and Common Property Under Management Flexibility: Valuation, Optimal Exploitation and Regulation
(2001-01)
If one were to examine the institutional configurations under which real world fisheries operate, one would find virtually no fisheries operating under either pure open access or rent maximizing conditions. Instead, most ...
Gaussian Semiparametric Estimation in Long Memory in Stochastic Volatility and Signal Plus Noise Models
(2002-04)
This paper considers the persistence found in the volatility of many financial time series by means of a local Long Memory in Stochastic Volatility model and analyzes the performance of the Gaussian semiparametric or local ...
Transboundary Externalities in the Environmental Transition Hypothesis
(1999-01)
The Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) is a hypothesis which implies that it is possible to "grow out of environmental degradation." Most theoretical models of the EKC relation have not accounted for transboundary and ...
Competition, regulation, and pricing behavior in the Spanish retail gasoline market
(2006)
The restructuring of the Spanish oil industry produced a highly concentrated oligopoly in the retail gasoline market. In June 1990 the Spanish government introduced a system of ceiling price regulation in order to ensure ...
Uncertainty and Real Options. Investment and Development of Fishing Resources (II)
(2000-01)
[EN] The irreversibility of the investment expenditures in a fishery and the high degree of uncertainty attaching to the price of the fishing resources make the evaluation of investment opportunity in a fishery particularly ...
Uncertainty and Real Options. Investment and Development of Fishing Resources (I)
(2000-01)
[EN] The valuation of development opportunity of a fishery is made particularly difficult by the high degree of uncertainty attaching to the price of the fishing resource. The net-present-value and other discounted cash-flows ...
Semiparametric inference in correlated long memory signal plus noise models
(2010-04)
This paper proposes an extension of the log periodogram regression in perturbed long memory series that accounts for the added noise, also allowing for correlation between signal and noise, which represents a common situation ...
