This paper studies the properties of the sieve bootstrap for a class of linear processes which exhibit strong dependence. The sieve bootstrap scheme is based on residual resampling from autoregressive approximations the order of which increases slowly with the sample size. The first-order...

We estimate a unit root bilinear process using the Maximum Likelihood method with log-likelihood function constructed by means of the Kalman filter, and evaluate the finite sample properties of this estimator.One hundred and five world-wide price series are tested for unit root bilinearity...

This paper considers a partially linear model of the form y = x beta + g(t) + e, where beta is an unknown parameter vector, g(.) is an unknown function, and e is an error term. Based on a nonparametric estimate of g(.), the parameter beta is estimated by a semiparametric weighted least squares...

In this paper, we derive the asymptotic distributions of Augmented-Dickey-Fuller (ADF) tests under very mild conditions. The tests were originally proposed and investigated by Said and Dickey (1984) for testing unit roots in finite-order ARMA models with i.i.d. innovations, and are based on a...
