This paper investigates the importance of the age composition in the Covid-19 pandemic. We augment a standard SIR epidemiological model with individual choices on work and non-work social distancing. Infected individuals are initially uncertain unless they are tested. We find that older individuals...

We report experimental and quasi-experimental evidence from a “sharing economy” marketplace that transitioned from decentralized to centralized pricing. Centralized pricing increased the utilization of providers’ assets, resulting in higher revenues but also higher transaction costs. Barred from...

I develop a tractable sticky-price model, where input-output linkages are formed endogenously through firms' optimizing decisions. My model delivers cyclical properties of networks that are consistent with those I estimate using aggregate, sectoral and rm-level data, both unconditionally and...

Quality regulation attempts to ensure quality and to foster price competition by reducing vertical differentiation, but may also have unintended consequences through its effects on market structure. We study this trade-off in the context of pharmaceutical bioequivalence, which is the primary...

Low carbon technologies for renewable energy are relatively intensive in critical raw materials (CRM). We investigate how this fact impacts the timing of the energy transition, when a very costly backstop technology also exists. The size of CRM reserves affects the investment in the equipment for...

In this work, we study discrete-time Markov decision processes (MDPs) under constraints with Borel state and action spaces and where all the performance functions have the same form of the expected total reward (ETR) criterion over the infinite time horizon. One of our objective is to propose a...
