Distribution test for a laplace distribution

Hi! I´m looking for somekind of a test for the fit of a laplace distribution i.e. whether the estimated error structure follows the laplace distribution. It´s easy for the normal distribution with the jarque-bera, but I´m not quite sure how to get one done for a laplace distribution = GED with fixed...

Re: Converging an AR-EGARCH model

ok well I did some further research on this and it seems to me that because the ar(1) and ar(2) refer to the Cochrane-Orcutt transformation for serial correction in the error term it is possible to get different results than from an initial OLS without the correction. I actually managed to ind a thr...
