 Solution

WriteExpanding $R_i^2$ gives the leading term ${\epsilon }_i^2{\xi }_i^2$ and terms of the forms treated in parts b and c, together with their versions obtained by interchanging $(\epsilon ,F)$ and $(\xi ,G)$. For example, the pure error terms are ${\epsilon }_i^2{G}_i^2$, ${\xi }_i^2{F}_i^2$, and $F_i^2{G}_i^2$, and each cross term is controlled by Cauchy-Schwarz from these. HenceAssuming this limit is positive, the continuous mapping theorem yields ${\tau }_D\stackrel{p}{\to }\{\mathbb{E}({\epsilon }_1^2{\xi }_1^2){\}}^{1/2}$. Combining this with the assumed convergence in distribution of $\sqrt{n}{\tau }_N$ and applying the Slutsky theorem givesThis is the studentization of the generalized covariance measure statistic.
