چکیده
We derive a nonparametric test for constant beta over a fixed time interval from high-frequency observations of a bivariate Itô semimartingale. Beta is defined as the ratio of the spot continuous covariation between an asset and a risk factor and the spot continuous variation of the latter. The test is based on the asymptotic behavior of the covariation between the risk factor and an estimate of the residual component of the asset, that is orthogonal (in martingale sense) to the risk factor, over blocks with asymptotically shrinking time span. Rate optimality of the test over smoothness classes is derived.

A Generalized Itô’s Formula in Two-Dimensions and Stochastic Lebesgue-Stieltjes Integrals
A generalized Itô formula for time dependent functions of two-dimensional continuous semi-martingales is proved. The formula uses the local time of each coordinate process of the semi-martingale, left space and time first derivatives and second derivative ∇1 ∇ − 2 f only which are assumed to be of locally bounded variation in certain variables, and stochastic Lebesgue-Stieltjes integrals of two...
متن کاملTime-Varying Modeling of Systematic Risk: using High-Frequency Characterization of Tehran Stock Exchange
We decompose time-varying beta for stock into beta for continuous systematic risk and beta for discontinuous systematic risk. Brownian motion is assumed as nature of price movements in our modeling. Our empirical research is based on high-frequency data for stocks from Tehran Stock Exchange. Our market portfolio experiences 136 days out of 243 trading days with jumps which is a considerable rat...
متن کاملSemi-martingales and rough paths theory
Abstract: We prove that the theory of rough paths, which is used to define path-wise integrals and path-wise differential equations, can be used with continuous semi-martingales. We provide then an almost sure theorem of type Wong-Zakai. Moreover, we show that the conditions UT and UCV, used to prove that one can interchange limits and Itô or Stratonovich integrals, provide the same result when...
متن کاملEvidence for dysregulated high-frequency oscillations during sensory processing in medication-naïve, first episode schizophrenia.
INTRODUCTION High-frequency oscillations are important for sensory processing and dysfunctions in the amplitude and synchrony of beta- and gamma-band oscillations have been demonstrated in schizophrenia (ScZ). However, the presence of aberrant high-frequency oscillations in first-episode (FE), medication-naive patients during sensory processing is unclear. METHODS Magnetoencephalographic (MEG...
متن کاملClassification of hydrometeors using microwave brightness temperature data from AMSU-B over Iran
The Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-B (AMSU-B) installed on the NOAA-15, 16, and 17 satellites, is the new generation of a series of microwave imagers/sounders that can sense atmospheric moisture and other hydrometeors through clouds. This paper demonstrates the potential of multi-frequency AMSU-B data for classifying different types of hydrometeors. Ten types of these hydrometers have been co...
