Xr. Chen, CONSISTENCY OF LS ESTIMATES OF MULTIPLE-REGRESSION UNDER A LOWER ORDER MOMENT CONDITION, Science in China. Series A, Mathematics, Physics, Astronomy & Technological Sciences, 38(12), 1995, pp. 1420-1431
Consider the multiple regression model Y-i=x'(i) beta+e(i), 1 less tha
n or equal to i less than or equal to n, n greater than or equal to 1.
Suppose that the random errors e(1), e(2),... are independent, distri
buted identically or not, and possess finite moment of order r, 1 less
than or equal to r<2. This paper gives the necessary and sufficient c
onditions on {x(i)) for weak consistency of <(beta(n))over bar> the LS
estimate of beta.
