By the deterministic cycle we mean the periodic or almost periodic fluctuations in the mean function in cyclical fluctuations. To construct test we formulate a multivariate non-parametric model containing the business cycle component in the unconditional mean function. The construction relies on the Fourier representation of the unconditional expectation of the multivariate Almost Periodically Correlated time series and is related to fixed deterministic cycle presented in the literature. The analysis of the existence of common deterministic business cycles for selected European countries is presented based on monthly industrial production indexes. Our main findings from the empirical part is that the deterministic cycle can be strongly supported by the data and therefore should not be automatically neglected during analysis without justification.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Non-Parametric Test for the Existence of the Common Deterministic Cycle: The Case of the Selected European Countries}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/106524/PDF-MASTER/mainFile.pdf}, doi={10.24425/cejeme.2017.122209}, keywords={testing deterministic cycles, subsampling, spectral analysis, almostperiodic mean function, Almost Periodically Correlated time series}, }
