If the dependence is sufficiently weak Hariz [J. Multivariate Anal. 80 (2002) 191--216] showed that $Z_t^f/t^{1/2}$ converges in distribution to a multiple of standard Brownian motion as $t\\to\\infty$. If the dependence is sufficiently strong, then $Z_t/(EZ_t(1)^2)^{1/2}$ converges in distribution to a higher order Hermite process as $t\\to\\infty$ by a result by Taqqu [Wahrsch. Verw. Gebiete 50 (1979) 53--83]. When passing from weak to strong dependence, a unique situation encompassed by neither results is encountered. In this paper, we investigate this situation in detail and show that the limiting process is still a Brownian motion, but a nonstandard norming is required. We apply our result to some functionals of fractional Brownian motion which arise in time series. For all Hurst indices $H\\in(0,1)$, we give their limiting distributions. In this context, we show that the known results are only applicable to $H<3/4$ and $H>3/4$, respectively, whereas our result covers $H=3/4$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-02-27T09:55:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60F05", "60F17", "60G15", "60J65", "62E20", "62F12" ], "keywords": [ "fractional processes", "integrated functionals", "higher order hermite process", "distribution", "standard brownian motion" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0902.4784B" } } }
