This paper proposes simple Hausman-type tests to check for bias in the log-periodogram regression of a time series believed to be long memory. The statistics are asymptotically standard normal on the null hypothesis that no bias is present, and the tests are consistent. The use of the tests in...

In this paper we consider the asymptotic distribution of S -estimators in the nonlinear regression model with long-memory error terms. S - estimators are robust estimates with a high breakdown point and good asymptotic properties in the i.i.d case. They are constructed for linear regression. In...

We investigate the behaviour of S - estimators in the linear regression model, when the error terms are long-memory Gaussian processes. It turns out that under mild regularity conditions S - estimators are still normally distributed with a similar variance - covariance structure as in the i.i.d...

This paper proposes an estimator that accounts for time variation in a regression relationship with stochastic regressors exhibiting long-range dependence, covering weak fractional cointegration as a special case. An interesting application of this estimator is its ability to handle situations...

We consider hypothesis testing in a general linear time series regression framework when the possibly fractional order of integration of the error term is unknown. We show that the approach suggested by Vogelsang (1998a) for the case of integer integration does not apply to the case of...
