d2lv: Hessian of the DCC log-likelihood function

Description

This function returns the analytical Hessian of the volatility part of the DCC log-likelihood function.

Usage

d2lv(u, B, h, model)

Arguments

u

a matrix of the data data used for estimating the (E)DCC-GARCH(1,1) model $(T \times N)$

B

a GARCH parameter matrix $(N \times N)$

h

a matrix of the conditional variances $(T \times N)$

model

a character string describing the model. "diagonal" for the diagonal model and "extended" for the extended (full ARCH and GARCH parameter matrices) model

Value

the Hessian of the volatility part of the DCC log-likelihood function $(T \times N^{2})$
