Aims

This course is the sequel of MATH 2440 "Analyse statistique". Its objective is to provide to
students who intend to obtain a doctor degree the necessary basic tools in order to perform
statistical research.

Main themes

1. Asymptotic Theory in Parametric Inference : M-and Z-Estimators, Contiguity and Local
Asymptotic Normality.
2. U-Statistics.
3. Empirical Processes
4. Von Mises Differentiable Statistical Function : Nonparametric M-Estimators.
5. Functional Delta Method
