In this paper we propose a direct testing procedure to detect the presence of linear unit root against geometrically ergodic process defined by self exciting threshold autoregressive (SETAR) model with three regimes. Assuming that the process follows the random walk in the corridor regime, the...

This paper generalizes the existing cointegration analysis literature in two respects. Firstly, the problem of efficient estimation of vector error correction models containing exogenous (1) variables is examined. The asymptotic distributions of the (log- )likelihood ratio statistics for testing...
