Abstract:
Let
be a stationary moving average with long-range dependence.
Suppose
and
for some
.
When the
are Gaussian, then
the Hermite polynomials play a fundamental role in the study of
non-central limit theorems for functions of
.
When the
are not Gaussian, the relevant
polynomials are Appell polynomials. They satisfy a multinomial type
expansion that can be used to establish non-central limit theorems.
