Limiting Distributions of Least Squares Estimates of Unstable Autoregressive Processes
不稳定自回归过程最小二乘估计的极限分布
An autoregressive process $y_n = \beta_1y_{n-1} + \cdots + \beta_py_{n-p} + \varepsilon_n$ is said to be unstable if the characteristic polynomial $\phi(z) = 1 - \beta_1z - \cdots - \beta_pz^p$ has all roots on or outside the unit circle. The limiting distribution of the least squares estimate of $(\beta_1, \cdots, \beta_p)$ is derived and characterized as a functional of stochastic integrals under a $2 + \delta$ moment assumption on $\varepsilon_n$. Up to the present,…
