I am given the following definition of a point estimator.



Definition: $hattheta$ is point estimator of $theta$ if $hattheta = g(X_1,...,X_n)$ where $X_1,...,X_n$ are iid distributed with parameter $theta$ and $g$ is some function that estimates $theta$.



My question is whether this definition implies that we are only considering $thetain mathbbR$ (since a function is not a vector) instead of $theta in mathbbR^m$ which is in general the case.

    The definition is in general $m$ dimensional since a function can be a vector, i.e., $g:mathbbR^ntomathbbR^m$ in general. It usually coincides with the dimensionality of $X_1$ or maybe you could have a function which estimates both parameters of a Gamma distribution for example.
