چکیده
We apply the Hurst exponent idea for investigation of DJIA index time-series data. The behavior of the local Hurst exponent prior to drastic changes in financial series signal is analyzed. The optimal length of the time-window over which this exponent can be calculated in order to make some meaningful predictions is discussed. Our prediction hypothesis is verified with examples of '29 and '87 crashes, as well as with more recent phenomena in stock market from the period 1995-2003. Some interesting agreements are found.

The use of the multi-cumulant tensor analysis for the algorithmic search for safe investment portfolios
The cumulant analysis plays an important role in non Gaussian distributed data analysis. The shares’ prices returns are good example of such data. The purpose of this research is to develop the cumulant based algorithm and use it to determine eigenvectors that represent investment portfolios with low variability. Such algorithm is based on the Alternating Least Square method and involves the si...
متن کاملN ov 2 00 6 Trees and asymptotic developments for fractional stochastic differential equations
In this paper we consider a n-dimensional stochastic differential equation driven by a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter H > 1/3. After solving this equation in a rather elementary way, following the approach of [10], we show how to obtain an expansion for E[f (X t)] in terms of t, where X denotes the solution to the SDE and f : R n → R is a regular function. With respect to [2], ...

Let L (x, t) = 2H R t 0 δ(B s − x)s ds be the weighted local time of fractional Brownian motion B with Hurst index 1/2 < H < 1. In this paper, we use Young integration to study the integral of determinate functions R R f(x)L (dx, t). As an application, we investigate the weighted quadratic covariation [f(B), B ] ) defined by [f(B), B ] (W ) t := lim n→∞ 2H n−1
متن کاملAre fractional Brownian motions predictable?
We provide a device, called the local predictor, which extends the idea of the predictable compensator. It is shown that a fBm with the Hurst index greater than 1/2 coincides with its local predictor while fBm with the Hurst index smaller than 1/2 does not admit any local predictor.

Critical behaviour of the 2D scalar field theory in the LC framework is reviewed. The notion of dynamical zero modes is introduced and shown to lead to a non trivial covariant dispersion relation only for Continuous LC Quantization (CLCQ). The critical exponent η is found to be governed by the behaviour of the infinite volume limit under conformal transformations properties preserving the local...
