Irreversibility of financial time series: A graph-theoretical approach

Abstract: The relation between time series irreversibility and entropy production has been recently investigated in thermodynamic systems operating away from equilibrium. In this work we explore this concept in the context of financial time series. We make use of visibility algorithms to quantify in graph-theoretical terms time irreversibility of 35 financial indices evolving over the period 1998-2012. We show that this metric is complementary to standard measures based on volatility and exploit it to both classify peri… Show more

“…A stochastic process is said to be time reversible if its probabilistic properties are invariant with respect to time reversal, other-wise it is directional or irreversible [1,2,3]. Recent reports describe the time irreversibility from different perspectives such as temporal asymmetry [4,5], complex network [6], visibility graph [7,8], entropy production [9,10], symbolic methods [11,12], and others. Based on the theoretical definitions [3], measures for time irreversibility generally target on the divergences in joint probability distributions between the forward and backward time series [9,13,14] or the probabilistic differences between symmetric distributions [5,15,16,17].…”

“…Using the time series T = [3,5,9,11,14,1,7,10] as an example, the algorithm first divides the sequence into the odd and even parts iteratively. This steps enables the generation of a new ordered sequence T ′ = [3,14,9,7,5,1,11,10]. Finally, the butterfly operation is performed on T ′ , and this generates a new sequence, as shown in Figure 3…”

“…Using the sample time series T = [3,5,9,11,14,1,7,10], according to Figure 4, we get the original indices for each element in T as [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7] and their binary codes. Specifically, for element 11 with index =3, the binary code (3) is '110.'…”

“…Similarly, the graph-theoretical description of canonical routes to chaos [8][9][10][11] and some classical stochastic processes [6,12] have been discussed recently under this approach, as well as the exploration of relevant statistical properties such as time irreversibility [13,14]. From an applied perspective, these methods are routinely used to describe in combinatorial and topological terms experimental signals emerging in different fields including physics [15][16][17][18][19][20][21], neuroscience [22][23][24][25] or finance [26] to cite a few examples where analysis and classification of such signals is relevant.…”
