Minimax solutions in sampling from finite populations
This monograph is centered around minimax solutions for three types of parameter spaces: permutation invariant spaces, the cuboid space and spaces described by quadratic forms related to the Hansen-Hurwitz estimator. The main emphasis is on a modified minimax rule and conditional minimax rules. The monograph provides some new results and insights in addition to surveying the field.
