Commodity taxation and social welfare: the generalised Ramsey rule
Coady, David; Dreze, Jean - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2000
Commodity taxes have three distinct roles: (1) revenue collection, (2) interpersonal redistribution, and (3) resource allocation. The paper presents an integrated treatment of these three concerns in a second-best general equilibrium framework, which leads to the 'generalised Ramsey rule' for...

A nonparametric regression estimator that adapts to error distribution of unknown form
Linton, Oliver; Xiao, Zhijie - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2001
We propose a new estimator for nonparametric regression based on local likelihood estimation using an estimated error score function obtained from the residuals of a preliminary nonparametric regression. We show that our estimator is asymptotically equivalent to the infeasible local maximum...

Testing the capital asset pricing model efficiently under elliptical symmetry : a semiparametric approach
Hodgson, Douglas J; Linton, Oliver; Vorkink, Keith - London School of Economics (LSE) - 2000
We develop new tests of the capital asset pricing model which are valid under the assumption that the distribution generating returns is elliptically symmetric; this assumption is necessary and sufficient for the validity of the CAPM. Our test is based on semiparametric efficient estimation...

How do domestic attributes affect international spillovers of CO2-efficiency?
