i found:

E(\widetilde{\theta})=\theta+\frac{1}{n} \ \ \ \ \ var(\widetilde{\theta})=\frac{1}{n^{2}}

so i guess we need n goes to infinity to make theta an unbiased estimator.

what about the last two questions

What is this \widetilde{\theta}?

The MLE of \theta is the smallest order statistic.

If this problem was assigned, then your teacher should have covered order stats. This is just the minimum of the data in this case.

Order statistic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
