In nonparametric instrumental variables estimation, the mapping that identifies the function of interest, g say, is … discontinuous and must be regularised (that is, modified) to make consistent estimation possible. The amount of modification is … in applications are not yet available. This paper presents such a method for use in series estimation, where the …

This paper is concerned with inference about an unidentified linear function, L(g), where the function g satisfies the relation Y=g(X)+U; E(U |W)=0. In this relation, Y is the dependent variable, X is a possibly endogenous explanatory variable, W is an instrument for X and U is an unobserved...
