Abstract
Abstract. This paper considers the long memory Gegenbauer autoregressive movingaverage (GARMA) process that generalizes the fractionally integrated ARMA (ARFIMA) process to allow for hyperbolic and sinusoidal decay in autocorrelations. We propose the conditional sum of squares method for estimation (which is asymptotically equivalent to the maximum likelihood estimation) and develop the asymptotic theory. Many results are in sharp contrast to those of the ARFIMA model. Simulations are conducted to assess the performance of the proposed estimators in small sample applications. Two applications to the sunspot data and the US inflation rates based on the wholesale price index are provided.
