Abstract
We describe a method for investigating nonlinearity in irregular fluctuations (short-term variability) of time series even if the data exhibit long-term trends (periodicities). Such situations are theoretically incompatible with the assumption of previously proposed methods. The null hypothesis addressed by our algorithm is that irregular fluctuations are generated by a stationary linear system. The method is demonstrated for numerical data generated by known systems and applied to several actual time series.
