OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

This paper explores a semiparametric version of a time varying regression, where a subset of the regressors have a fixed coefficient and the rest a time varying one. We provide an estimation method and establish associated theoretical properties of the estimates. In particular, we show that the estimator of the fixed regression coefficient preserves the parametric rate of convergence. Theoretical properties of the estimator are confirmed by Monte Carlo experiments and illustrated by an empirical example.
