Transition Modeling and Econometric Convergence Tests [PDF]

open access: yes
A new panel data model is proposed to represent the behavior of economies in transition allowing for a wide range of possible time paths and individual heterogeneity.

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

Asymptotic properties of a goodness-of-fit test based on maximum correlations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We study the efficiency properties of the goodness-of-fit test based on the Qn statistic introduced in Fortiana and Grané (2003) using the concepts of Bahadur asymptotic relative efficiency and Bahadur asymptotic optimality.

CLTs and asymptotic variance of time-sampled Markov chains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
For a Markov transition kernel P and a probability distribution μ on nonnegative integers, a time-sampled Markov chain evolves according to the transition kernel Pμ = Σkμ(k)Pk.

The role of venture‐financed startups in innovation for US agriculture

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract To evaluate the role played by startup companies in the innovation ecosystem of US agriculture, we compile a unique dataset of 6024 new entrants founded 1987–2019 that details their financing lifecycles, annual economic performance, and patenting activities.

Mann iteration and fixed point theorems for multidimensional matrix transforms with asymptotic properties

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications
Fixed point theorems for nonexpansive mappings are extended to double sequences using four-dimensional matrix transforms. Asymptotic dominance is introduced to unify iteration schemes, including a Mann iteration for Pringsheim convergence, and asymptotic

A difference-based approach in the partially linear model with dependent errors

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2018
We study asymptotic properties of estimators of parameter and non-parameter in a partially linear model in which errors are dependent. Using a difference-based and ordinary least square (DOLS) method, the estimator of an unknown parametric component is ...

Maximal uniform convergence rates in parametric estimation problems [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper considers parametric estimation problems with i.i.d. data. It focusses on rate-effciency, in the sense of maximal possible convergence rates of stochastically bounded estimators, as an optimality criterion, largely unexplored in parametric ...

Characterization of the asymptotic distribution of semiparametric M-estimators

open access: yes, 2010
This paper develops a concrete formula for the asymptotic distribution of two-step, possibly non-smooth semiparametric M-estimators under general misspecification.

Pollination by long‐proboscid horseflies and its implications for reproductive isolation among coflowering Satyrium orchids in South Africa

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Floral adaptations to pollinators can drive lineage diversification and promote coexistence of species. We investigated the reproductive biology of Satyrium longicolle, a South African orchid that we hypothesized to belong to a long‐proboscid horsefly pollination guild and examined overlap of pollinators and floral traits among ...
