Testing For A Unit Root In Time Series Regression, Peter C.B. Phillips, Pierre Perron Jul 1986

Testing For A Unit Root In Time Series Regression, Peter C.B. Phillips, Pierre Perron

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

This paper proposes some new tests for detecting the presence of a unit root in quite general time series models. Our approach is nonparametric with respect to nuisance parameters and thereby allows for a very wide class of weakly dependent and possibly heterogeneously distributed data. The tests accommodate models with a fitted drift and a time trend so that they may be used to discriminate between unit root nonstationarity and stationarity about a deterministic trend. The limiting distributions of the statistics are obtained under both the unit root null and a sequence of local alternatives. The latter noncentral distribution theory …


Weak Convergence To The Matrix Stochastic Integral Bdb, Peter C.B. Phillips Jul 1986

Weak Convergence To The Matrix Stochastic Integral Bdb, Peter C.B. Phillips

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

The asymptotic theory of regression with integrated processes of the ARIMA type frequently involves weak convergence to stochastic integrals of the form ∫ 0 1 WdW , where W ( r ) is standard Brownian motion. In multiple regressions and vector autoregressions with vector ARIMA processes the theory involves weak convergence to matrix stochastic integrals of the form ∫ 0 1 BdB ’, where B ( r ) is vector Brownian motion with non scalar covariance matrix. This paper studies the weak convergence of sample covariance matrices to ∫ 0 1 BdB ’ under quite general conditions. The theory is …


Quasirents, Influence And Organization Form, Paul R. Milgrom Jul 1986

Quasirents, Influence And Organization Form, Paul R. Milgrom

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

When changing jobs is costly, efficient employment arrangements are characterized by complex contracts, rather than simply wages. Under these contracts, workers are not generally fully compensated for the effects of post-employment events or decisions. As a consequence, if there is a central office executive with discretionary authority to make decisions, employees will be led to waste valuable time in attempts to influence his decisions. Efficient organization design balances these “influence costs” against the benefits of improved appraisal, coordination, and planning that such an executive can provide. Identifying influence costs requires first identifying the kinds of decisions about which employees will …

Gene Expression During The Latent And Replicative States Of The Epstein-Barr Virus, Ronald John Weigel May 1986

Gene Expression During The Latent And Replicative States Of The Epstein-Barr Virus, Ronald John Weigel

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

Gene expression of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was examined during the latent and lytic viral cycles. During latency the virus expresses two small RNAs (EBERs) and the EB nuclear antigen (EBNA). A gene encoding one peptide of the EBNA complex was mapped using S1 nuclease analysis. EBNA peptide is encoded by a 2028 base exon contained within the EBV Bam HI K fragment; the 3' end of this exon occurs 30 bp after the polyadenylation signal AATAAA and the 5' end occurs within a splice acceptor site. The latent state was disrupted experimentally by treatment with phorbol ester or superinfection …


Survey Evidence On Diffusion Of Interest Among Institutional Investors, Robert J. Shiller, John Pound May 1986

Survey Evidence On Diffusion Of Interest Among Institutional Investors, Robert J. Shiller, John Pound

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Contagion or epidemic models of financial markets are proposed in which interest in or attention to individual stocks is spread by word of mouth. The models give alternative interpretations of the random walk character of stock prices. A questionnaire survey of institutional investors was undertaken to ascertain the relevance of such models. Questions elicited what fraction of these investors were unsystematic and allowed themselves to be influenced by word-of-mouth communications or other salient stimuli. Rough indications of the infection rate and removal rate were produced. Investors in stocks whose price had recently increased dramatically to a high P/E ratio were …

Resources, Technology, And Development: Will The Table Be Bare When Poor Countries Get There?, William D. Nordhaus

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

This paper discusses the net effect of these two economic forces on developing countries: Is the drag to economic advance from dwindling resources outweighed by the accompanying technological advances? Or will the potential scarcity of resources during the next century on balance weigh down the pace of economic progress?
