This paper investigates the convergence of local price levels within Japan, using long-run data spanning six decades … and based on a pairwise approach. The analysis investigates convergence of all binary combinations of local price levels …, rather than choosing a particular city as reference.

In this paper we examine long-run house price convergence across US states using a novel econometric approach advocated … convergence based on the percentage of unit root rejections among all state house price differentials. Using a sieve bootstrap … procedure, we construct confidence intervals and find evidence in favour of convergence. We also conclude that speed of …

This paper empirically examines whether there exists stochastic convergence of income inequality among 48 contiguous … evidence in support of the hypothesis of inter-state inequality convergence. Moreover, the results are robust to alternative … inequality measures applied, different notions of stochastic convergence defined, and alternative panel stationary test employed. …

This paper analyzes the time stability of the GDP beta convergence in two subsamples: EU27 countries during 1993 … compared with the widely cited 2% rate of convergence.
