For estimating under squared-error loss the mean of a p-variate normal distribution when this mean lies in a ball of radius m centered at the origin and the covariance matrix is equal to the identity matrix, it is shown that the Bayes estimator with respect to a uniformly distributed prior on the bo

A minimax variance (in the Huber sense) estimator of a correlation coe cient for -contaminated bivariate normal distributions is given by the trimmed correlation coe cient. Consistency and asymptotic normality of this estimator are established, and the explicit expression for its asymptotic variance
