Mean intergrated squared error properties and optimal kernels when estimating a diatribution function

Let X₁,X₂,… X_n be a sample of independent identically distributed (i.i.d)random variables having an unknown absolutely continuous distribution function f with density f the twofold aim of his paper consists in, firstly deriving asymptotic expressions of the mean intergrated squared error (MISE) of a kernel estimator of F when f is either assumed to be continuous everywhere or problem of finding optimal kernels in these two cases is studied in detail.
