      [For the entire collection see Zbl 0731.00019.] In multiple regression outliers cannot be identified by most of robust estimators and outlier diagnostics if several of them form a cluster. To prevent such a masking effect one needs a method that can cope with a large fraction of outliers. One such method with high breakdown point is the least trimmed squares estimator. Its exact computation, however, is quite difficult because the objective function may have a large number of local minima. The authors use an approximate algorithm based on p-subsets and prove that the algorithm shares the equivariance and good breakdown properties of the exact estimator. The same result is valid for other high- breakdown-point estimators. Finally, for the one-dimensional location model special results are given concerning half samples.
