This paper presents likelihood analysis of the I(2) cointegrated vector autoregression with piecewise linear deterministic terms. Limiting behavior of the maximum likelihood estimators are derived, which is used to further derive the limiting distribution of the likelihood ratio statistic for...

Based on Cox and Reid (1987) adjustments of likelihood ratio (LR) tests for unit roots in higher-order autoregressive models are proposed. While unit root inference does not fit directly into the framework of Cox and Reid, the ideas are applied in models with multi-dimensional parameters of...

We establish consistency and asymptotic normality of the quasi-maximum likelihood estimator in the linear ARCH model. Contrary to existing literature we allow the parameters to be in the region where no stationary version of the process exists

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,...

In this paper we discuss the general application of the bootstrap as a tool for statistical inference in econometric time series models. We do this by considering the implementation of bootstrap inference in the class of double-autoregressive [DAR] models discussed in Ling (2004). DAR models are...
