Stable distribution and application to finance
No full textTitle: Stable distributions and application to finance Author: Vadym Omelchenko Department: Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics Supervisor: Prof. Lev Klebanov, DrSc. Supervisor's e-mail address: [email protected] Abstract: This work deals with the theory of the stable distributions, their parameter estimation, and their financial application. There arc given the methods of characteristic function and method of projections, which is rel- ative to ML-methodology, for estimation of the parameters of stable dis- tributions. We compare these methods with the conventional estimators. The quality of estimators is verified by the simulation of the sample having stable distribution with known parameters and comparing the estimates of these parameters with their real values. The aim of this work is estima- tion of parameters of the stable laws which iy applicable for modification of AHCH/GAHCH models with stable innovations. Keywords: stable distribution, ARGII/GARCII models, characteristic func- tion (CF) based estimators, maximum likelihood projection (MLP) estima- tors
