β¦ Synopsis
We estimate the common density function of n i.i.d. observations, at a ΓΏxed point, over Sobolev classes of functions having regularity ΓΏ. We prove that the optimal rate of convergence cannot be attained in adaptive estimation, i.e. uniformly over ΓΏ in some interval B n. A slower rate is shown to be adaptive.

We estimate the common probability density function of n i.i.d, observations at a fixed point, valued in an infinite-dimensional Banach space. A kernel estimator is proposed. Convergence in mean square is proved. Application to process of diffusion type is considered. (~) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All righ
