This paper proposes Pearson-type statistics based on implies probabilities to detect structural change. The class of generalized empirical likelihood estimators (see Smith (1997)) assigns a set of probabilities to each observation such that moment conditions are satisfied. These restricted...

This paper examines the implications of using VARs in levels under the Max Share identification approach when variables exhibit unit or near-unit roots. We derive the asymptotic distributions of the Max Share estimator, demonstrating that it converges to a random matrix, resulting in...
