Abstract: We consider least squares estimators for linear regression models with long-memory dependence, continuous time, and nonlinear inequality constraints imposed on the parameter. We study the solution of the problem of minimization of the least squares functional in the linear regression with a given (long) radius of dependence and nonlinear inequality constraints imposed on the parameter. We prove that the solution being appropriately centered and normalized converges in distribution to the solution of the quadratic programming problem. The latter solution is non-Gaussian in contrast to known results for long-memory dependence without constraints for which an analogous transform of the solution of the minimization problem is asymptotically Gaussian in many typical cases.
