The widely used log-periodogram regression estimator of the long-memory parameter d proposed by Geweke and Porter-Hudak (1983) (GPH) has been criticized because of its finite-sample bias, see Agiakloglou, Newbold, and Wohar (1993). In this paper, we propose a simple bias-reduced log-periodogram...

The paper considers the block sampling method for long-range dependent processes. Our theory generalizes earlier ones by Hall et al. (1998) [11] on functionals of Gaussian processes and Nordman and Lahiri (2005) [16] on linear processes. In particular, we allow nonlinear transforms of linear...

The asymptotic null distribution of the nonlinear IV panel unit root test due to Chang (2002, Journal of Econometrics 110, 261-292) is examined under the assumption of an invertible general linear process with a weak summability condition. An autoregressive approximation of order p, with p...

Summary We study a model with an abrupt change in the mean and dependent errors that form a linear process. Different kinds of statistics are considered, such as maximum-type statistics (particularly different CUSUM procedures) or sum-type statistics. Approximations of the critical values for...

In this paper, we estimate the Shannon entropy S(f)=-E[log(f(x))] of a one-sided linear process with probability density function f(x). We employ the integral estimator Sn(f), which utilizes the standard kernel density estimator fn(x) of f(x). We show that Sn(f) converges to S(f) almost surely...
