Kernel entropy estimation for long memory linear processes with infinite variance

Abstract

Let X={Xn:nN}X=\{X_n: n\in\mathbb{N}\} be a long memory linear process with innovations in the domain of attraction of an α\alpha-stable law (0<α<2)(0<\alpha<2). Assume that the linear process XX has a bounded probability density function f(x)f(x). Then, under certain conditions, we consider the estimation of the quadratic functional Rf2(x)dx\int_{\mathbb{R}} f^2(x) \,dx by using the kernel estimator \[ T_n(h_n)=\frac{2}{n(n-1)h_n}\sum_{1\leq j<i\leq n}K\left(\frac{X_i-X_j}{h_n}\right). \] The simulation study for long memory linear processes with symmetric α\alpha-stable innovations is also given.
