The set of stable payoffs in assignment games is often large. We seek to refine this set in the spirit of the Nash (1953) program, where an idealized (or “cooperative”) (the work is joint with Mihai Manea.) solution is also supported by a non-cooperative mechanism whose Nash equilibria (possibly...

We analyze the sustainability of collusion in infinitely repeated symmetric first-price procurement auctions with complete information. We show that strategies combining on-path price randomization with dynamic market-share reallocations facilitate collusion at discount factors below the threshold...

I study a preference relation on risky long run public projects induced by a large maturity limit of expected present values. Under common assumptions this relation has a variational representation that is related to a well known model of ambiguity aversion; it is non-probabilistic in general....

Combining administrative data on credit, mortgages, and construction in Rwanda, this paper shows that technology helps overcome imperfections in property rights and foster the development of the mortgage market. Exploiting quasi-experimental variation in 3G internet coverage and a land title reform...

I study how third-party firms respond when a platform owner enters its own marketplace, analyzing Apple's entries into App Store submarkets from 2016-2021. Using text embeddings to define markets and a staggered difference-indifferences design, I find that Apple's entry deters new competitors and...

This paper investigates some theoretical properties of the Partial Least Square (PLS) method. We focus our attention on the single component case, that provides a useful framework to understand the underlying mechanism. We provide a non-asymptotic upper bound on the quadratic loss in prediction...

While immigration of unskilled workers often generates controversy in the political arena, there is often more consensus in favor of selec tive immigration policies. This paper studies the effects of selective immigration policies on the labor market. High skilled immigration introduces two...

Households’ inflation expectations depend on their financial conditions, even after controlling demographic factors and expectations about the economic outlook. Specifically, savers report higher inflation expectations than borrowers. We establish these regularities using individual level data from...
