“…To cover uniform inference for local polynomial estimators over a general index set with bias correction of any arbitrary order, uniform validity of Bahadur representation over the set is essential. For classes of nonparametric kernel regressions on which our method relies, Masry (1996), Kong, Linton, and Xia (2010) and Fan and Liu (2016) develop uniform Bahadur representations over regressors. Furthermore, Guerre and Sabbah (2012), Qu and Yoon (2015a), Lee, Song, and Whang (2015), Fan and Guerre (2016) develop uniform validity over quantiles as well.…”
