We consider a regression relation of the from wherein y(t) and x(t) are real (column) vectors of q and p components and e(t) is real and is generated by a stationary generalised vector process of q components with zero mean and covariance function (a q rowed matrix) Γ(t–s) = E{x(s)x(t)′}. (See Hannan (1970; pages 23–26, 91–94) and references therein for definitions of terms used.) We assume e(t) to be independent of x(s) for all s, t. Thus we may regard x(t) as a fixed time function and not stochastic and we shall henceforth do that. We take Γ(t) to be continuous and to correspond to an absolutely continuous spectral function with spectral density which is uniformly bounded and continuous. Then we have We do not exclude the possibility that for theyth diagonal element, fjj, of fwe have
