Limit properties of the monotone rearrangement for density and regression function estimation

Anevski, Dragi LU and Fougeres, Anne-Laure (2019) In Bernoulli 25(1). p.549-583
Abstract
The monotone rearrrangement algorithm was introduced by Hardy, Littlewood and Po ́lya as a sorting device for functions. As- suming that x is a monotone function and that an estimate xn of x is given, consider the monotone rearrangement xˆn of xn. This new estimator is shown to be uniformly consistent. Under suitable as- sumptions, pointwise limit distribution results for xˆn are obtained. The framework is general and allows for weakly dependent and long range dependent stationary data. Applications in monotone density and regression function estimation are detailed.
