A Glivenko-Cantelli Bootstrap Theorem for the Foster-Greer-Thorbecke Poverty Index
View through CrossRef
Abstract.We assume the Foster-Greer-Thorbecke (FGT) poverty index as an empirical process indexed by a particular Glivenko-Cantelli class or collection of functions and define this poverty index as a functional empirical process of the bootstrap type, to show that the outer almost sure convergence of the FGT empirical process is a necessary and sufficient condition for the outer almost sure convergence of the FGT bootstrap empirical process; that is: both processes are asymptotically equivalent respect to this type of convergence.
