How does memory shape individuals’ financial decisions? We find experimental evidence of a self-serving memory bias. Subjects over-remember their own positive investment outcomes and under-remember negative ones. In contrast, subjects who did not invest but merely observed outcomes do not have this...

Dans cet exposé, nous présenterons un panorama des questions et résultats mathématiques classiques et récents concernant les “limites de champ moyen” et la "propagation du chaos" selon Kac. Nous nous intéresserons tout particulièrement aux modèles de type McKean-Vlasov et de type Boltzmann-Kac...

The paper considers a good for which conception determines two design dimensions: durability and the environmental quality during production. The theoretical model studies how design dimensions are impacted by the firm's ability to commit to future prices, and by an expected technological progress...

Social scientists have shown how easily individuals are moved to exclude outgroup members. Can we foster inclusion instead? This study leverages one of the most significant humanitarian crises of our time to test whether, and under what conditions, American citizens adopt more inclusionary behavior...

The goal of quantization is to find the best approximation of a probability distribution by a discrete measure with finite support. When dealing with empirical distributions, this boils down to finding the best summary of the data by a smaller number of points, and automatically yields a K-means-...

Attitudes towards social groups such as women and racial minorities have been shown to be important determinants of individual’s decisions but are hard to measure for those in policymaking roles. We propose a way to address the challenge in the case of U.S. appellate court judges, for whom we have...
