Let {j}, {j} and {Zj}, j = 1,0,1, be three doubly infinite, mutually independent sequences
Question:
Let {ϵj}, {ϵ′j} and {Zj}, j = … − 1,0,1,… be three doubly infinite, mutually independent sequences of independent unit exponential random variables. The bivariate sequence {Xj
,Yj}, j = … − 1,0,1,…, defined by is known as a bivariate exponential recurrence process. Show that
(i) Xj and Yj are unit exponential random variables.
(ii) cov(Xj
,Xj+h) = 2−h where h ≥ 0.
(iii) Xi is independent of Yj
.
(iv) Xi is independent of the sequence {Yj}.
Hence deduce that all third-order mixed cumulants involving both Xs and Ys are zero.
Show also that cum (Xj
, Xj+1, Yj
, Yj+1) = 1/12
