In what follows, $w_t$ always denotes the white noise which is normally distributed about 0, with constant variance $\sigma^2$ and $E(w_t w_s) = 0$ for all $t \neq s$. 2 (4 points) Let $X_t = 5t^2 + t + w_t$. Let $\nabla$ denotes the differencing operator, i.e., $\nabla X_t = X_t - X_{t-1}$. (a) Show that the stochastic process $Y_t := \nabla^2 X_t$ is covariance stationary. (b) Describe $Cov(Y_t, Y_{t+h})$ for all integer values of $h \geq 0$.

Step 1

We know that $\nabla X_t = X_t - X_{t-1}$. Therefore, $\nabla^2 X_t = \nabla (\nabla X_t) = \nabla (X_t - X_{t-1}) = (X_t - X_{t-1}) - (X_{t-1} - X_{t-2}) = X_t - 2X_{t-1} + X_{t-2}$. Show more…
