This article studies an asymptotic framework for conducting inference on parameters of the form ϕ(θ₀), where ϕ is a known directionally differentiable function and θ₀ is estimated by θ̂n. In these ...

Let X be a normed linear space, Un an n-dimensional Chebyshev subspace of X. For f ∈ X denote by p(f) ∈ Un its best approximation in Un. The problem of strong unicity consists in estimating how fast ...
