    Dynamic partial correlation models

    Full text link
    We introduce a new scalable model for dynamic conditional correlation matrices based on a recursion of dynamic bivariate partial correlation models. By exploiting the model’s recursive structure and the theory of perturbed stochastic recurrence equations, we establish stationarity, ergodicity, and filter invertibility in the multivariate setting using conditions for bivariate slices of the data only. From this, we establish consistency and asymptotic normality of the maximum likelihood estimator for the model’s static parameters. The new model outperforms benchmarks like the t-cDCC and the multivariate t-GAS, both in simulations and in an in-sample and out-of-sample asset pricing application to US stock returns

    Gymnetron vulpes Lucas Gymnetron vulpes Lucas, 1849: 459; Brisout 1862: 659; Reitter 1908: 17. This taxon was described from a single specimen collected at Milah (Constantine province, Algeria) and is now housed in the general collection of the MNHN. It corresponds exactly to the original description and illustration and is labelled as follows " 756 [handwritten under a blue round label] / Gymnetron vulpes, Lucas [handwritten white rectangular label] / Museum Paris, Algérie, coll. H. Lucas 78 - 49 [typewritten grey rectangular label] / TYPE [typewritten red rectangular label]". It is a male and here designated as the lectotype of Gymnetron vulpes Lucas, 1849 (des. Caldara). Lucas (1849) referred to the fact that, according to the opinion of Roussel, this species is also common in the environs of Alger, where the larva develops on Celsia cretica L. (syn. of Verbascum creticum (L.) Cav.). Brisout (1862) believed erroneously that this specimen was only a teneral individual of G. p i l o s u m and therefore synonymised these two taxa. In fact, it is a junior synonym of the species called Gymnetron marmota Fairmaire, 1883 by Reitter (1908), presently placed in Mecinus (Caldara 2001). Moreover, the specimens collected on Celsia cretica actually belong to R. tetra (Fabricius, 1792).Published as part of Caldara, Roberto, Ić, Milana Desan Č, Gassmann, Andre, Legarreta, Lorenza, Emerson, Brent C. & Toševski, Ivo, 2008, On the identity of Rhinusa hispida (Brullé) and its current synonyms (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), pp. 61-68 in Zootaxa 1805 on page 63, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18265

    Andre Gide and the Negro, 1940

    No full text
    Because it is generally known that Andre Gide is one of France's most influential contemporary writers, there is no need to justify a study based on his works. Desirous of obtaining the opinion of an influential white author concerning Negroid people and learning his activities in their behalf, the writer of this thesis undertook the study, Andre Gide end the Negro. The value of such a study to the American Negro lies primarily in (1) a better acquaintance with and appreciation for one whose interest in darker people has resulted in a tangible contribution; (2) a knowledge of the condition of a people, who, though distant in territory, are kindred in race, and (3) a challenge for scholastic accomplishment. The method of procedure was a careful analysis of Voyage au Congo and Retour du Tchad supplemented by collateral readings. To secure information concerning Mr. Gide's official investigation in 1938 of the natives' educational facilities in Senegal, a letter was sent him. Despite the anxiety which must be his because of the present war in which his country is involved, the eminent author found time to respond. His reply is quoted on page thirty-one of this study. Grateful acknowledgment is hereby given both Mr. Gide for his amicable letter and Professor Cook, who made such a contact possible. The various factors for the evolution of Gide's interest in Negroid people are shown in Chapter I. Chapter II contains a discussion of the colonial abuses existing in French Equatorial Africa exposed by Gide and his efforts to eradicate these. Through Chapter III one learns the author's personal impression of the morale and intelligence of Negroid people. In Chapter IV an interpretation of Gide's literary art in Voyage au Gang and Retour du Tchad is presented. The results are summarized in the conclusion
