Abstract

Abstract. The restricted likelihood ratio test, RLRT, for the autoregressive coefficient in autoregressive models has recently been shown to be second-order pivotal when the autoregressive coefficient is in the interior of the parameter space and so is very well approximated by the distribution. In this article, the non-standard asymptotic distribution of the RLRT for the unit root boundary value is obtained and is found to be almost identical to that of the in the right tail. Together, these two results imply that the distribution approximates the RLRT distribution very well even for near unit root series and transitions smoothly to the unit root distribution.
