Relative errors for bootstrap approximations of the serial correlation coefficient
序列相关系数 Bootstrap 近似的相对误差
We consider the first serial correlation coefficient under an $\operatorname{AR}(1)$ model where errors are not assumed to be Gaussian. In this case it is necessary to consider bootstrap approximations for tests based on the statistic since the distribution of errors is unknown. We obtain saddle-point approximations for tail probabilities of the statistic and its bootstrap version and use these to show that the bootstrap tail probabilities approximate the true values with…
