A note on unit root tests with heavy-tailed GARCH errors

Author

Listed:
  • Wang, Gaowen

Abstract

In this paper, we derive the asymptotic distributions of Dickey-Fuller tests for unit root processes with GARCH(1,1) errors when the fourth moment condition is not satisfied. Particularly, the fourth moment condition on the scaled conditional errors is weakened.
