I have a question regarding the concept of cointegration. Does the concept of 
cointegration apply to any model? Or it only applies to OLS? For example, I fit 
an autoregressive error model , AR(M)

y_t=x_t*�+v_t

v_t=-�_1*v_(t-1)-...-�_m*v_(t-m)+�_t

If the ADF tests prove that both dependent variable y and independent variable 
x are stationary at I(1), and the residuals �_t are stationary at I(0), Can I 
conclude y and x are cointegrated? The residuals �_t are the prediction errors 
from the AR(M) model.

I checked the definition of cointegration, it looks like as long as the 
residuals from OLS are I(0) and both x and y are I(1), then x and y are 
cointegrated? Do I need to test stationary of the residuals from my AR(M) model 
in order to prove that x and y are cointegrated?

You help is appreciated.
