Simulate the Ellison & Glaeser statistic using randomness alone
By using a simulation of firm sizes (using a lognormal distribution) and specified geographic regions, standard deviations and employee head count, we can compute the critical regions for the Ellison & Glaeser statistic. In the process, it also calculates herfindahl values and provides critical regions. You can also use Françoise Maurel and Béatrice Sédillot (1999)'s specification for both G and gamma.
