Simulate Random Drift Matrices from the Multivariate Normal Distribution

This function simulates random drift matrices from the multivariate normal distribution. The function ensures that the generated drift matrices are stable using TestPhi().

Usage

SimPhiN(n, phi, vcov_phi_vec_l)

Arguments

n

Positive integer. Number of replications.

phi

Numeric matrix. The drift matrix (\(\boldsymbol{\Phi}\)).

vcov_phi_vec_l

Numeric matrix. Cholesky factorization (t(chol(vcov_phi_vec))) of the sampling variance-covariance matrix \(\mathrm{vec} \left( \boldsymbol{\Phi} \right)\).
