Abstract
This work explores new classes of nonstationary stochastic sequences associated with polynomial hypergroups. Their covariance structures are analyzed through positive definite kernels and corresponding Hilbert spaces. Novel consistent estimators are introduced for deriving covariance structures from sequence realizations. A comprehensive prediction theory is developed, including a fast Levinson-type algorithm for efficiently calculating best linear predictors. Wiener-type theorems are established, enabling the detection of spectral measure atoms via generalized periodograms. Additional advancements, such as prediction with supplementary information, further enhance the scope of this study.
