Minimax estimation problems with restricted parameter space reached increasing interest within the last two decades Some authors derived minimax and admissible estimators of bounded parameters under squared error loss and scale invariant squared error loss In some truncated estimation problems the most natural estimator to be considered is the truncated version of a classic...

A module MR is called right principally quasi-Baer (or simply right p.q.-Baer) if the right annihilator of a principal submodule of R is generated by an idempotent. Let R be a ring. Let α be an endomorphism of R and MR be a α-compatible module and T = R[[x;α]]. It is shown that M [[x]]T is right p.q.-Baer if and only if MR is right p.q.-Baer and the right annihilator of any countably-generated ...
