We derive new theoretical results on the properties of the adaptive least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (adaptive lasso) for time series regression models. In particular we investigate the question of how to conduct finite sample inference on the parameters given an adaptive lasso...

This paper studies robustness of bootstrap inference methods under moment conditions. In particular, we compare the uniform weight and implied probability bootstraps by analyzing behaviors of the bootstrap quantiles when outliers take arbitrarily large values, and derive the breakdown points...

We introduce a nonparametric block bootstrap approach for Quasi-Likelihood Ratio type tests of nonlinear restrictions. Our method applies to extremum estimators, such as quasi-maximum likelihood and generalized method of moments estimators. Unlike existing parametric bootstrap procedures for...

We introduce a wild multiplicative bootstrap for M and GMM estimators in nonlinear models when autocorrelation structures of moment functions are unknown. The implementation of the bootstrap algorithm does not require any parametric assumptions on the data generating process. After proving its...

We study the validity of the pairs bootstrap for Lasso estimators in linear regression models with random covariates and heteroscedastic error terms. We show that the naive pairs bootstrap may have some issues in approximating the sampling distribution of the Lasso estimator. In particular, we...

We study the asymptotic refinements of a fully nonparametric bootstrap approach for quasi-likelihood ratio type tests of nonlinear restrictions. This bootstrap method applies to extremum estimators, such as quasi-maximum likelihood and generalized method of moments estimators. Unlike existing...
