We study Tikhonov Regularized estimation of quantile structural effects implied by a nonseparable model. The nonparametric instrumental variable estimator is based on a minimum distance principle. We show that the minimum distance problem without regularization is locally ill-posed, and consider...

We consider asymmetric kernel density estimators and smoothed histogramswhen the unknown probability density function f is defined on [0, +∞). Uniform weak consistency on each compact set in [0, +∞) is proved for these estimators when "f" is continuous on its support. Weak convergence in L...
