Stationary ARCH models: Dependence structure and central limit theorem

This paper studies a broad class of nonnegative ARCH(co) models. Sufficient conditions for the existence of a stationary solution are established and an explicit representation of the solution as a Volterra type series is found. Under our assumptions, the covariance function can decay slowly like a power function, falling just short of the long memory structure. A moving average representation in martingale differences is established, and the central limit theorem is proved.
