Abstract

For estimators of parameters defined as minimisers of Q(θ)=Ef(θ,X), we study the asymptotic and generalised bootstrap properties. We concentrate on the case where Q does not have adequate smoothness for standard analysis to work. We describe the properties required by Q as well as bootstrap weights for consistency of the bootstrap.
