In this talk we introduce the semi-discrete optimal transport (OT) problem with entropic regularization. We characterize the solution using a governing, well-posed ordinary differential equation (ODE). This naturally yields an algorithm to solve the problem numerically, which turns out to be...

We document pervasive frictions in news consumption on social media, and test interventions designed to address them through a large field experiment on Facebook. We find that a simple, platform-integrated interface prompting active choice significantly and persistently reduces the partisan slant...

This paper highlights the importance of finding all roots for the Continuously Updating Generalized Method of Moments (CU-GMM) estimator and Likelihood Ratio (LR)-based tests. Traditional numerical optimization methods often fail to locate global minima due to the non-convexity of objective...

With the monetary policy lower bound a re-emerging concern in some locations, we present new insights on the impact of negative policy rates. We develop a new theoretical model to match the empirical evidence on their effects. It features a heterogeneous, oligopolistic banking sector where loan...

Low Emission Zones (LEZs) —restricted areas for vehicles that fail to meet certain environmental standards— are becoming an increasingly popular policy tool to encourage the adoption of low emission vehicles. Despite this, little is known about their optimal design, particularly regarding which...

This paper documents the malleability of prosocial behavior and trust in response to economic shocks. We focus on a low-income setting where prosociality is central to the integration of refugees into ultra-poor host communities. We generate an exogenous positive shock to financial security through...

This study investigates how different methods of communicating monetary policy uncertainty affect public understanding and expectation formation. Using two complementary experiments, we assess both interpretation and behavioral responses to forecast uncertainty. In Part A, 300 members of the UK...
