A Family of Non-Gaussian Martingales with Gaussian Marginals
نویسندگان
چکیده
We construct a family of martingales with Gaussian marginal distributions. We give a weak construction as Markov, inhomogeneous in time processes, and compute their infinitesimal generators. We give the predictable quadratic variation and show that the paths are not continuous. The construction uses distributions Gσ having a logconvolution semigroup property. Further, we categorize these processes as belonging to one of two classes, one of which is made up of piecewise deterministic pure jump processes. This class includes the case where Gσ is an inverse log-Poisson distribution. The processes in the second class include the case where Gσ is an inverse log-gamma distribution. The richness of the family has the potential to allow for the imposition of specifications other than the marginal distributions.

From an Itô type calculus for Gaussian processes to integrals of log-normal processes increasing in the convex order
In this paper, we present an Itô type formula for a Gaussian process, in which only the one-marginals of the Gaussian process are involved. Thus, this formula is well adapted to the study of processes increasing in the convex order, in a Gaussian framework. In particular, we give conditions ensuring that processes defined as integrals, with respect to one parameter, of exponentials of two-param...
متن کاملSpatial Interpolation Using Copula for non-Gaussian Modeling of Rainfall Data
‎One of the most useful tools for handling multivariate distributions of dependent variables in terms of their marginal distribution is a copula function‎. ‎The copula families capture a fair amount of attention due to their applicability and flexibility in describing the non-Gaussian spatial dependent data‎. ‎The particular properties of the spatial copula are rarely ...
متن کاملSimulation of multivariate non-gaussian autoregressive time series with given autocovariance and marginals
A semi-analytic method is proposed for the generation of realizations of a multivariate process of a given linear correlation structure and marginal distribution. This is an extension of a similar method for univariate processes, transforming the autocorrelation of the non-Gaussian process to that of a Gaussian process based on a piece-wise linear marginal transform from non-Gaussian to Gaussia...
متن کاملSpatial Latent Gaussian Models: Application to House Prices Data in Tehran City
Latent Gaussian models are flexible models that are applied in several statistical applications. When posterior marginals or full conditional distributions in hierarchical Bayesian inference from these models are not available in closed form, Markov chain Monte Carlo methods are implemented. The component dependence of the latent field usually causes increase in computational time and divergenc...
متن کاملOn Gaussian Marginals of Uniformly Convex Bodies
We show that many uniformly convex bodies have Gaussian marginals in most directions in a strong sense, which takes into account the tails of the distributions. These include uniformly convex bodies with power type 2, and power type p > 2 with some additional type condition. In particular, all unit-balls of subspaces of Lp for 1 < p < ∞ have Gaussian marginals in this strong sense. Using the we...
