Expertise
My research interests are Econometric Theory, Time Series Analysis, Generalized Method of Moments, Empirical Process Theory. In particular, I am interested in estimation and inference methods for time series models in the presence of breaks, outliers, nonlinearity, nonstationarity and long memory, without necessarily considering these as competing alternatives. My current research is on detecting and locating breaks in linear models with endogenous regressors and nonlinear models, on nonstationarity, and on empirical macro- and monetary economics.
