In this paper we study estimation and inference in structural models with a jump in the conditional density, where the location and size of the jump are described by regression lines. Two prominent examples are auction models, where the density jumps from zero to a positive value, and the...

This paper reestablishes the main results in Bai (2003) and Bai and Ng(2006) for generalized factor models, with slightly stronger conditions on therelative magnitude of N(number of subjects) and T(number of time periods).Convergence rates of the estimated factor space and loading space and...
