Abstract:

This paper establishes a new concentration inequality for large autocovariance matrices constructed from high dimensional structural time series that extends the inequality for product measures of Rudelson. The method is based on the Cantor-set blocking argument put forward by Merlevede et al. (2011) and Banna et al. (2016) in case of geometrically strongly mixing scalar-valued or absolutely regular matrix-valued sequences. Applications include linear VAR(d) and vector-valued ARCH models.
