cajo.test-class: Representation of class cajo.test

Description

This class contains the relevant information by estimating and testing a VAR under linear restrictions on \(\bold{\alpha}\) and \(\bold{\beta}\).

Arguments

Slots

Z0:

Object of class "matrix": The matrix of the differenced series.

Z1:

Object of class "matrix": The regressor matrix, except for the lagged variables in levels.

ZK:

Object of class "matrix": The matrix of the lagged variables in levels.

ecdet:

Object of class "character": Specifies the deterministic term to be included in the cointegration relation. This can be either "none", "const", or "trend".

H:

Object of class "ANY": The matrix containing the restrictions placed upon \(\bold{\beta}\).

A:

Object of class "ANY": The matrix containing the restrictions placed upon \(\bold{\alpha}\).

B:

Object of class "ANY": The matrix orthogonal to matrix \(\bold{A}\).

type:

Object of class "character": The test type.

teststat:

Object of class "numeric": The value of the test statistic.

pval:

Object of class "vector": The p-value and the degrees of freedom.

lambda:

Object of class "vector": The eigenvalues of the restricted model.

Vorg:

Object of class "matrix": The matrix of eigenvectors, such that \(\hat V_{\dots}'(H'S_{\dots}H)\hat V_{\dots} = I\).

V:

Object of class "matrix": The matrix of the restricted eigenvectors, normalised with respect to the first variable.

W:

Object of class "matrix": The matrix of the corresponding loading weights.

PI:

Object of class "matrix": The coefficient matrix of the lagged variables in levels.

DELTA:

Object of class "ANY": The variance/covarinace matrix of \(\bold{V}\).

DELTA.bb:

Object of class "ANY": The variance/covarinace matrix of the marginal factor \(\bold{B}'\bold{R}_{0t}\).

DELTA.ab:

Object of class "ANY": The variance/covarinace matrix of the conditional distribution of \(\bold{A}'\bold{R}_{0t}\) and \(\bold{R}_{kt}\).

DELTA.aa.b:

Object of class "ANY": The variance/covarinace matrix of the restricted loading matrix.

GAMMA:

Object of class "matrix": The coefficient matrix of \(\bold{Z1}\).

test.name:

Object of class "character": The name of the test, i.e. `Johansen-Procedure'.

Extends
