Asymptotic behavior of weakly dependent aggregated processes

Aggregated processes appear in many areas of statistics, natural sciences and economics and studying their behavior has a considerable importance from a purely probabilistic point of view as well. Granger (1980) showed that aggregating processes of simple structure can lead to processes with much more complex dynamics, in particular, aggregating random coefficient AR(1) processes can result in long memory processes. This opens a new way to analyze complex processes by constructing such processes from simple ‘building blocks’ via aggregation.
