The subject of this paper is to estimate adaptively the common probability density of independent, identically distributed random variables. The estimation is done at a fixed point , over the density functions that belong to the Sobolev class . We consider the adaptive problem setup, where the regularity parameter is unknown and varies in a given set . A sharp adaptive estimator is obtained, and the explicit asymptotical constant, associated to its rate of convergence...
