Abstract: In this work, we analyse the long-run correlations of the seismic catalogue and of its clusters, by means of the Diffusion Entropy Analysis (DEA) and the value of the Hurst exponent. First we calculate the values for the whole catalogue, for the rate and the inter-event times and distance distribution over time, and subsequently we calculate the values for the declustered catalogue and the main clusters. We find a wide variety of behaviours, which depart from the Poisson statistics.
