Estimation and testing for varying coefficients in additive models with marginal integration
Yang, Lijian; Härdle, Wolfgang; Park, Byeong U. - 2002
We propose marginal integration estimation and testing methods for the coefficients of varying coefficient multivariate … regression model. Asymptotic distribution theory is developed for the estimation method which enjoys the same rate of convergence … as univariate function estimation. For the test statistic, asymptotic normal theory is established. These theoretical …

Testing for short and long-run causality : the case of the yield spread and economic growth
Breitung, Jörg; Candelon, Bertrand - 2001
To assess the predictive content of the interest rate term spread for future economic growth, we distinguish short-run from long-run predictability by using two different approaches. First, following Dufour and Renault (1998) a test procedure is proposed to test for causality at different...

Multiple politico-economic regimes, inequality and growth
Desdoigts, Alain; Moizeau, Fabien - 2001
In this paper, we abandon the stylized median voter and study (i) how distributional tensions can act in many different ways depending on social affinity and on the prospect of upward or downwardmobility of the different income classes, (ii) income distribution dynamics, intergenerational...

Semiparametric analysis of German East-West migration intentions : facts and theory
Burda, Michael C.; Härdle, Wolfgang; Müller, Marlene; … - 1997
East-West migration in Germany peaked at the beginning of the 90s although the average wage gap between Eastern and Western Germany continues to average about 25%. We analyze the propensity to migrate using microdata from the German Socioeconomic Panel. Fitting a parametric Generalized Linear...

The Beveridge-Nelson decomposition : a different perspective with new results
Gómez, Víctor; Breitung, Jörg - 1998
We show in the paper that the decomposition proposed by Beveridge and Nelson (1981) for models that are integrated of order one can be generalized to seasonal Arima models by means of a partial fraction decomposition. Two equivalent algorithms are proposed to optimally (in the mean squared...

A note on stochastic volatility, GARCH models, and hyperbolic distributions
Jaschke, Stefan R. - 1997
We establish a relation between stochastic volatility models and the class of generalized hyperbolic distributions. These distributions have been found to fit exceptionally well to the empirical distribution of stock returns. We review the background of hyperbolic distributions and prove...
