We consider estimation and inference in panel data models with additive unobserved individual specific heterogeneity in a high dimensional setting. The setting allows the number of time varying regressors to be larger than the sample size. To make informative estimation and inference feasible,...

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 …

High-dimensional linear models with endogenous variables play an increasingly important role in recent econometric literature. In this work we allow for models with many endogenous variables and many instrument variables to achieve identification. Because of the high-dimensionality in the second...

The instrumental variable quantile regression (IVQR) model of Chernozhukov and Hansen (2005, 2006) is a flexible and …. Estimation, however, is computationally burdensome because the GMM objective function is non-smooth and non-convex. This paper … shows that the IVQR estimation problem can be decomposed into a set of conventional quantile regression sub-problems, which …

Efficient estimators and uniformly valid confidence intervals for regression coefficients on target variables (e.g., treatment … or policy variable) in a high-dimensional approximately sparse regression model, for average treatment effect (ATE) and … heteroscedastic and non-Gaussian errors are implemented. Moreover, joint/ simultaneous confidence intervals for regression …

This paper develops characterizations of identified sets of structures and structural features for complete and incomplete models involving continuous or discrete variables. Multiple values of unobserved variables can be associated with particular combinations of observed variables. This can...

As with mean-regression models, an erroneous assumption that the explanatory … whose structural function is identified through a conditional quantile restriction. Quantile regression models are … variables in a quantile regression model are exogenous can lead to highly misleading results. In addition, a test of exogeneity …

This paper considers the finite sample distribution of the 2SLS estimator and derives bounds on its exact bias in the presence of weak and/or many instruments. We then contrast the behavior of the exact bias expressions and the asymptotic expansions currently popular in the literature, including...
