Asymptotic behavior of CLS estimators for unstable INAR(2) models
In this paper the asymptotic behavior of the conditional least squares
estimators of the autoregressive parameters , of the stability
parameter , and of the mean of the innovation
\vare_k, k \in \NN, for an unstable integer-valued autoregressive process
X_k = \alpha \circ X_{k-1} + \beta \circ X_{k-2} + \vare_k, k \in \NN, is
described. The limit distributions and the scaling factors are different
according to the following three cases: (i) decomposable, (ii) indecomposable
but not positively regular, and (iii) positively regular models.Comment: 67 pages; the CLS estimator of the mean of the innovation has been

Asymptotic behavior of unstable INAR(p) processes
In this paper the asymptotic behavior of an unstable integer-valued
autoregressive model of order p (INAR(p)) is described. Under a natural
assumption it is proved that the sequence of appropriately scaled random step
functions formed from an unstable INAR(p) process converges weakly towards a
squared Bessel process. We note that this limit behavior is quite different
from that of familiar unstable autoregressive processes of order p. An
application for Boston armed robberies data set is presented.Comment: 35 pages; corrected and extended version: a new section on an
