Find the Cramer-Rao lower bound for the variance of unbiased estimators of θ based on a random sample of size n from a distribution with pdf f(x : θ) = 1 / (π(1 + (x - θ)^2)) for -∞ < x < ∞.

Let Y1, ..., Yn be a random sample from a distribution with pdf f(y) = (α θ^α)/(y^α+1) where 0 < θ ≤ y, θ is known, and α > 0. a) Find the maximum likelihood estimator of α. (Make sure that you prove that your answer is the MLE.)
