We develop results for the use of LASSO and Post-LASSO methods to form first-stage predictions and estimate optimal instruments in linear instrumental variables (IV) models with many instruments, p, that apply even when p is much larger than the sample size, n. We rigorously develop asymptotic...

The instrumental variable quantile regression (IVQR) model (Chernozhukov and Hansen, 2005) is a popular tool for …-convexity of the IVQR GMM objective function. This paper shows that the IVQR estimation problem can be decomposed into a set of … conventional quantile regression sub-problems which are convex and can be solved efficiently. This reformulation leads to new …

This paper studies simultaneous equations models for two or more discrete outcomes. These models may be incoherent, delivering no values of the outcomes at certain values of the latent variables and covariates, and they may be incomplete, delivering more than one value of the outcomes at certain...

This paper demonstrates the use of bounds analysis for empirical models of market structure that allow for multiple equilibria. From an econometric standpoint, these models feature systems of equalities and inequalities for the determination of multiple endogenous interdependent discrete choice...

This paper provides sufficient conditions for the nonparametric identification of the regression function m(.) in a … regression model with an endogenous regressor x and an instrumental variable z. It has been shown that the identification of the … regression function from the conditional expectation of the dependent variable on the instrument relies on the completeness of …
