Abstract

We consider the estimation of a one-dimensional parameter in a linear model with an ultra-high number of independent variables. We argue that the standard assumptions on the design matrix are essentially technical and can be relaxed. Conversely, the assumptions on the sparsity of the nuisance parameters are unverifiable, too strong, and unavoidable.
