Abstract

We prove the long standing conjecture of Ding and Granger (1996) about the existence of a stationary Long Memory ARCH model with finite fourth moment. This result follows from the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of covariance stationary integrated AR(∞), ARCH(∞), and FIGARCH models obtained in the present article. We also prove that such processes always have long memory.
