Rezumat	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 Levin-Lin-Chu (LLC) test, introduced by Levin, Lin, and Chu (2002), is a first-generation panel unit-root test that pools cross-sectional information to test whether all units in a panel share a common autoregressive unit root. It is widely used in applied economics and finance when researchers work with balanced or near-balanced panels and require a powerful test against a homogeneous stationary alternative.
