Summary It has long been established that if a panel dataset suffers from attrition, auxiliary (refreshment) sampling restores full identification under additional assumptions that still allow for nontrivial attrition mechanisms. Such identification results either rely on implausible assumptions about the attrition process or lead to theoretically and computationally challenging estimation procedures. We propose an alternative identifying assumption that, despite its…

We study the bias of classical quantile regression and instrumental variable quantile regression estimators. While being asymptotically first-order unbiased, these estimators can have non-negligible second-order biases. We derive a higher-order stochastic expansion of these estimators using empirical process theory. Based on this expansion, we derive an explicit formula for the second-order bias and propose a feasible bias correction procedure that uses finite-difference…

For an $N \times T$ random matrix $X(\beta )$ with weakly dependent uniformly sub-Gaussian entries $x_{it}(\beta )$ that may depend on a possibly infinite-dimensional parameter $\beta \in \mathbf {B}$ , we obtain a uniform bound on its operator norm of the form $\mathbb {E} \sup _{\beta \in \mathbf {B}} ||X(\beta )|| \leq CK \left (\sqrt {\max (N,T)} + \gamma _2(\mathbf {B},d_{\mathbf {B}})\right )$ , where C is an absolute constant, K controls the tail behavior of (the…
