Proof of Theorem 1: The proof is similar to that of Bierens (1990). Suppose mo is
suchthat Jr g(s)em°φ(s)ds = 0. Noticethat
A [{s : φ)em°φ^ = 0}] = A [{s : g(s) = 0}] > 0.
By Lemma A, there is δ > 0 such that Jr [g(s)em°φ(s)] emφs',ds = 0, for 0 < ∖m∖ < δ.
Therefore, Jr q(s)emφs'1 ds = 0, for 0 < ∖m — mo∖ < δ. Hence, infmeM,m=mo ∖m — mo∖ >
0. This implies that M is a set of isolated points of the real line, and therefore is
countable. It is also straightforward to show that is non-dense in R.B
Proof of Lemma 4: By Lemma 3.1 of Chang et. al. (2001) the result can be proved
along the lines of Lemma 2 in Bierens (1990). ■
Proof of Theorem 2: We start with the limit result under H0. By Lemma 3.1
of Chang et. al. (2001), the terms An(a.m) and Cn(a) have well defined limits,
A(a.m), C (a) say. Set D(a.m) = A'(a.m)C 1 (a. m) and notice that D(a.m) can be
partitioned as D(a.m) = [D1(a1.m1)...... Dj(aj.mj)]. Let an, an be mean values of
à and ao. By Lemma 2, Lemma 3.1 of Chang et. al. (2001) and the mean value
theorem, the numerator of B(m) rescaled by n 1/2 is

by Lemma 3.1 of Chang et. al. (2001), the denominator of B(m) rescaled by n
1/2 is

The result follows from (A1) and (A2).
