In this paper, we obtain the optimal rate of convergence in the central limit theorem for m-dependent U-statistics under mild conditions, which is similar to that in the independent rv's.

We provide a new asymptotic theory for local time density estimation for a general class of functionals of integrated time series. This result provides a convenient basis for developing an asymptotic theory for nonparametric cointegrating regression and autoregression. Our treatment directly...

A local limit theorem is given for the sample mean of a zero energy function of a nonstationary time series involving twin numerical sequences that pass to infinity. The result is applicable in certain nonparametric kernel density estimation and regression problems where the relevant quantities...

Nonparametric estimation of a structural cointegrating regression model is studied. As in the standard linear cointegrating regression model, the regressor and the dependent variable are jointly dependent and contemporaneously correlated. In nonparametric estimation problems, joint dependence is...

This paper proposes a model specification testing procedure for parametric specification of the conditional mean function in a nonlinear time series model with long-range dependent. An asymptotically normal test is established even when long-range dependent is involved. To implement the proposed...
