| Research Abstract |
This paper considers a puzzling phenomenon that is observed in some semiparametric estimation problems. In some cases, using estimated values of the nuisance parameters provides a more efficient estimator for the parameters of interest than does using the true values. This phenomenon takes place even in cases of semi-nonparametric models in which the nuisance parameters are infinite dimensional and can not be estimated at the parametric rate. We examine the structure and present the necessary and sufficient condition for the occurrence of this puzzle. We also provide a simple sufficient condition. It shows that the puzzle occurs when the term accounting for the effect of estimation of nuisance parameters is included in the tangent space.
