This paper considers the first order large sample properties of the GEL class of estimators for models specified by non-smooth indicators. The GEL class includes a number of estimators recently introduced as alternatives to the efficient GMM estimator which may suffer from substantial biases in...

Often semiparametric estimators are asymptotically equivalent to a sample average. The object being averaged is referred to as the influence function. The influence function is useful in formulating primitive regularity conditions for asymptotic normality, in efficiency comparions, for bias...

There are many interesting and widely used estimators of a functional with finite semi-parametric variance bound that depend on nonparametric estimators of nuisance func-tions. We use cross-fitting to construct such estimators with fast remainder rates. We give cross-fit doubly robust...
