It is a well-established fact that testing a null hypothesis on the boundary of the parameter space, with an unknown number of nuisance parameters at the boundary, is infeasible in practice in the sense that limiting distributions of standard test statistics are non-pivotal. In particular,...

This paper develops tests for the correct specification of the conditional variance function in GARCH models when the true parameter may lie on the boundary of the parameter space. The test statistics considered are of Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Cramér-von Mises type, and are based on a certain...

In a recent paper Hualde and Robinson (2011) establish consistency and asymptotic normality for conditional sum-of-squares estimators, which are equivalent to conditional quasi-maximum likelihood estimators, in parametric fractional time series models driven by conditionally homoskedastic...
