Abstract
We consider the problem of L-p-consistent density estimation from the initial segments of strongly dependent processes. It is shown that no procedure can consistently estimate the one-dimensional marginal densi ty of every stationary ergodic process for which such a density exists . A similar result is established for the problem of estimating the su pport of the marginal distribution of an ergodic process.
