Instead of considering the worst case, we aim to construct a private mechanism whose error rate is adaptive to the easiness of estimation of the minimum. ...
We will prove that no locally differentially private mechanism consistently estimates the minimum under the worst-case users' data distribution. ...

Public-Sector Wage Comparability: The Role of Earnings Dispersion
2004
Public Finance Review
Economists use average wage differentials to examine whether public-and private-sector workers have comparable earnings. ...
In short, if average earnings in the public and private sectors are identical, earnings need not be comparable. ...
Thus, individual earnings differentials favor the public sector at the bottom of the earnings distribution and the private sector at the top of the distribution. ...
