We apply ideas from fiscal federalism to derive new results on how fiscal authority should be delegated within a monetary union. We consider a monetary-economy model, in which governments finance their expenditures with nominal debt and inflation has a negative effect on productivity. If the...

Self-play via online learning is a leading paradigm for solving large-scale games and has enabled recent superhuman performance (e.g., Go, Poker). This work clarifies that different convergence notions in self-play (last iterate, best iterate, and a randomly sampled iterate) can behave...

Mortality research has traditionally treated death as an individual event measured through annualised rates. While this approach is essential for monitoring population-level mortality, it reveals little about how mortality is experienced by individuals. In practice, individuals encounter death not...

Schools shape skills that matter beyond academic achievement. Teachers are central to this process, yet whether these effects arise from fixed teacher attributes or from malleable instructional practices remains unclear. We investigate this question through a randomized intervention in Spanish...

Optimal stopping problems lie at the interface of probability, statistics, and sequential decision theory. They model situations in which decisions must be made online, using only the information revealed so far and without access to future outcomes. After briefly discussing a few motivating...
