All, I am working on a research project and I am using Performance Analytics to calculate VaR and CVaR. I am also using the modified (Cornish Fisher) methods. I was hoping someone could provide references for mES.MM and Ipower methods in the multivariatemoments.R file. I am really interested in the part that call the Ipower method. The references in the online docs at braverock, cover most of these functions, but not the call to Ipower and the use of its results. It may be in Scherer's book, which I do not have a reference. Thanks Joe
