Absolute Moments of Generalized Hyperbolic Distributions and Approximate Scaling of Normal Inverse Gaussian Lévy-Processes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Expressions for (absolute) moments of generalized hyperbolic and normal inverse Gaussian (NIG) laws are given in terms of moments of the corresponding symmetric laws. For the (absolute) moments centred at the location parameter l explicit expressions as series containing Bessel functions are provided. Furthermore, the derivatives of the logarithms of absolute l-centred moments with respect to the logarithm of time are calculated explicitly for NIG Lévy processes. Computer implementation of the formulae obtained is briefly discussed. Finally, some further insight into the apparent scaling behaviour of NIG Lévy processes is gained.

Modelling Financial Data Using Generalized Hyperbolic Distributions
This note describes estimation algorithms for generalized hyperbolic hyperbolic and nor mal inverse Gaussian distributions These distributions provide a better t to empirically observed log return distributions of nancial assets than the classical normal distributions Based on the better t to the semi heavy tails of nancial assets we can compute more realistic Value at Risk estimates The modell...
متن کاملComparison of Semimartingales and Lévy Processes
In this paper we derive comparison results for terminal values of d-dimensional special semimartingales and also for finite-dimensional distributions of multivariate Lévy processes. The comparison is with respect to non-decreasing, (increasing) convex, (increasing) directionally convex and (increasing) supermodular functions. We use three different approaches. In the first approach we give suff...
متن کاملRecurrence Relations for Moment Generating Functions of Generalized Order Statistics Based on Doubly Truncated Class of Distributions
In this paper, we derived recurrence relations for joint moment generating functions of nonadjacent generalized order statistics (GOS) of random samples drawn from doubly truncated class of continuous distributions. Recurrence relations for joint moments of nonadjacent GOS (ordinary order statistics (OOS) and k-upper records (k-RVs) as special cases) are obtained. Single and product moment gene...
متن کاملEstimation of Value at Risk (VaR) Based On Lévy-GARCH Models: Evidence from Tehran Stock Exchange
This paper aims to estimate the Value-at-Risk (VaR) using GARCH type models with improved return distribution. Value at Risk (VaR) is an essential benchmark for measuring the risk of financial markets quantitatively. The parametric method, historical simulation, and Monte Carlo simulation have been proposed in several financial mathematics and engineering studies to calculate VaR, that each of ...
متن کاملHessian Stochastic Ordering in the Family of multivariate Generalized Hyperbolic Distributions and its Applications
In this paper, random vectors following the multivariate generalized hyperbolic (GH) distribution are compared using the hessian stochastic order. This family includes the classes of symmetric and asymmetric distributions by which different behaviors of kurtosis in skewed and heavy tail data can be captured. By considering some closed convex cones and their duals, we derive some necessary and s...
