sim_de_stat(size, a = log, b = log, use_kernel_var = FALSE,
  kernel = "ba", bandwidth = "and", n = 500, gen_func = rnorm,
  args = NULL, parallel = FALSE)

`size`	Number of realizations to simulate
`a`	The function that will be composed wit l(x) = (2 \log(x))^{1/2}
`b`	The function that will be composed with u(x) = 2 \log(x) + \frac{1}{2} \log(\log(x)) - \frac{1}{2}\log(pi)
`use_kernel_var`	Set to `TRUE` to use kernel-based long-run variance estimation (`FALSE` means this is not employed)
`kernel`	If character, the identifier of the kernel function as used in the cointReg (see documentation for `cointReg::getLongRunVar`); if function, the kernel function to be used for long-run variance estimation (default is the Bartlett kernel in cointReg); this parameter has no effect if `use_kernel_var` is `FALSE`
`bandwidth`	If character, the identifier of how to compute the bandwidth as defined in the cointReg package (see documentation for `cointReg::getLongRunVar`); if function, a function to use for computing the bandwidth; if numeric, the bandwidth to use (the default behavior is to use the \insertCiteandrews91b;textualCPAT method, as used in cointReg); this parameter has no effect if `use_kernel_var` is `FALSE`
`n`	The sample size for each realization
`gen_func`	The function generating the random sample from which the statistic is computed
`args`	A list of arguments to be passed to `gen_func`
`parallel`	Whether to use the foreach and doParallel packages to parallelize simulation (which needs to be initialized in the global namespace before use)

If use_kernel_var is set to TRUE, long-run variance estimation using kernel-based techniques will be employed; otherwise, a technique resembling standard variance estimation will be employed. Any technique employed, though, will account for the potential break points, as described in \insertCitehorvathricemiller19;textualCPAT. See the documentation for stat_de for more details.

The parameters kernel and bandwidth control parameters for long-run variance estimation using kernel methods. These parameters will be passed directly to stat_de.
