Abstract

Based on the maximal invariant principle, we derive two ratio tests (locally best invariant test and point optimal test) for a unit root and compare them with previously proposed ratio tests. We also show that our ratio tests tend to have better powers than the Dickey-Fuller test and the modified Dickey-Fuller test.
