Pricing kernels implicit in option prices play a key role in assessing the risk aversion over equity returns. We deal with nonparametric estimation of the pricing kernel (Empirical Pricing Kernel) given by the ratio of the risk-neutral density estimator and the subjective density estimator. The...

We consider theoretical bootstrap coupling techniques for nonparametric robust smoothers and quantile regression, and verify the bootstrap improvement. To cope with curse of dimensionality, a variant of coupling bootstrap techniques are developed for additive models with both symmetric error...

This study considers the theoretical bootstrap “coupling” techniques for nonparametric robust smoothers and quantile regression, and we verify the bootstrap improvement. To handle the curse of dimensionality, a variant of “coupling” bootstrap techniques is developed for additive models...
