The fraction of women in economics has grown significantly over the last forty years. In spite of this, the differences in research output between men and women are large and persistent. These output differences are related to differences in the co-authorship networks of men and women: women have...

We study the implications of consumer switching costs on prices when price adjustments are costly. We develop a dynamic pricing model in a multiproduct oligopoly setting, in which consumers exhibit inertia in their choices and firms face costly price adjustments. Motivated by the empirical...

This paper is devoted to the non-asymptotic control of the mean-squared error for the Ruppert-Polyak stochastic averaged gradient descent introduced in the seminal contributions of [Rup88] and [PJ92]. In our main results, we establish non-asymptotic tight bounds (optimal with respect to the Cramer-...

Aircraft generate enormous amounts of data: an Airbus A320 generates the equivalent of two high-definition movies every hour. Integrating and analysing this data make flying cheaper, safer, and greener. However, aviation data is highly fragmented, with airlines, manufacturers, airports, and many...

We present a dynamic lifecycle model of women’s choices with respect to partnership sta- tus, labour supply and fertility when a male partner’s true tendency for abusive behaviour is unobserved. The model is estimated by the method of simulated moments using longitudinal data from the Avon...
