It is well known that confidence intervals for weakly identified parameters are unbounded with positive probability (e.g. Dufour, Econometrica 65, pp. 1365-1387 and Staiger and Stock, Econometrica 65, pp. 557-586), and that the asymptotic risk of their estimators is unbounded (Pötscher, Econometrica 70, pp.1035-1065). In this note we extend these “impossibility results” and show that uniformly ...

Audio compression is the lossy compression technique of converting audio signal into an efficiently encoded bitstream that can be decoded to produce a close approximation of the original signal. For the purpose of improving the coding this work attempts to combine psychoacoustic model for perceptual evaluation of audio quality (PEAQ) in BS.1387 with perceptual audio coder. The implementation of...

2014 Anomalous diffusion in presence of a (fractal) boundary is investigated. Asymptotic behaviour of the survival probability and current through an absorbing boundary are exactly calculated in specific examples. They agree with recent findings related with anomalous Warburg impedance experiments. The autocorrelation function for sites near the boundary is carefully discussed ; in presence of ...

In the title compound, [Ru(C(5)H(4)NO)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)]PF(6)·0.5C(6)H(6), the Ru(2+) cation has a distorted octa-hedral RuN(5)O coordination environment. This complex is more distorted than the closely related ruthenium complex containing a pyridine-2-thiol-ate ligand [Santra et al. (1997 ▶). J. Chem. Soc. Dalton Trans. pp. 1387-1393]. The distortion is caused by the difference in size betwee...

This paper generalizes the sufficient conditions for stability of monotone economies and time series models due to Hopenhayn and Prescott (Econometrica, 60, p. 1387–1406, 1992). We introduce a new order-theoretic mixing condition and characterize stability for monotone economies satisfying this condition. We also provide a range of results that can be used to verify our mixing condition in appl...
