Resumen	The Breitung test, introduced by Jörg Breitung in 2000, is a nonparametric panel unit-root test designed to assess whether all cross-sectional units in a balanced panel share a common unit root. Unlike competing first-generation tests, it avoids bias-correction terms that depend on lag selection or kernel bandwidth estimation, thereby preserving local power under a homogeneous alternative. It is widely used in macroeconometrics and finance when the researcher suspects cross-sectional homogeneity in the autoregressive structure.	The Fisher-type (Maddala-Wu) panel unit-root test, introduced in 1999, combines individual-level ADF unit-root p-values using Fisher's chi-squared meta-analytic framework to produce a single panel-level test statistic. Unlike the Levin-Lin-Chu approach, it does not impose a common autoregressive parameter across cross-sections, making it a natural choice for heterogeneous panels in macroeconomics, finance, and regional economics.
