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,...

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...

This paper proposes a class of origin-smooth approximators of indicators underlying the sum-of-negative-part statistic for testing multiple inequalities. The need for simulation or bootstrap to obtain test critical values is thereby obviated. A simple procedure is enabled using fixed critical...

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 …

We study identification and estimation in a binary response model with random coefficients B allowed to be correlated with regressors X. Our objective is to identify the mean of the distribution of B and estimate a trimmed mean of this distribution. Like Imbens and Newey (2009), we use...
