xtbreakcoint: Panel Cointegration Tests with Structural Breaks

Implements panel cointegration tests allowing for structural breaks and cross-section dependence following the methodology of Banerjee and Carrion-i-Silvestre (2015) <doi:10.1002/jae.2348>. The package provides iterative factor-break estimation, individual ADF tests on defactored residuals, standardized panel test statistics, and the Bai and Ng (2004) <doi:10.1111/j.1468-0262.2004.00528.x> MQ test for identifying common stochastic trends. Supports five model specifications with varying deterministic components and break structures.
