This paper studies efficient estimation of partial linear regression in time series models. In particular, it combines two topics that have attracted a good deal of attention in econometrics, viz. spectral regression and partial linear regression, and proposes an efficient frequency domain...

The presence of conditional heteroskedasticity invalidates standard autocorrelation tests such as the Durbin-Watson statistic and its many variants, and reduces the power of standard unit root tests like the Dickey-Fuller test. This paper addresses the problem of testing for AR(1) and AR(p)...
