Nonparametric likelihood based estimation for a multivariate Lipschitz density

We consider a problem of nonparametric density estimation under shape restrictions. We deal with the case where the density belongs to a class of Lipschitz functions. Devroye [L. Devroye, A Course in Density Estimation, in: Progress in Probability and Statistics, vol. 14, Birkhäuser Boston Inc., Bos...
