Unemployed individuals face pecuniary search costs when looking for a job. A the same time, it is well documented that unemployed face binding liquidity constraints. We develop a quantitative incomplete markets search-and-matching model featuring such search costs and employ it as a policy...

We study the effect of Amazon's dual role, as a marketplace and retailer, on product recommendations. We find that products sold by Amazon receive substantially more ``Frequently Bought Together” recommendations across product categories and popularity deciles. To establish causality, we exploit...

Actively choosing to learn tends to involve market failure: if the new knowledge is not shared with everyone else, learning produces asymmetric information; if the new knowledge is welfare relevant and shared with everyone, learning essentially amounts to private provision of a public good,...

Deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon has fallen sharply since the early 2000s. Better enforcement of environmental law is believed to play a major role in this success story, and the literature provides support to this theory. Deforestation is one of the greatest culprits of carbon emissions in...

In the talk we will discuss Poisson reduced rank models for low-dimensional summaries of high-dimensional Poisson vectors that allow for inference on the location of individuals in a low-dimensional space. We show that under weak dependence assumptions, the locations can be consistently estimated...

In this talk, I will introduce a new multilevel-Langevin method dedicated to the Gibbs sampling. More precisely, this procedure both inspired by [Szpruch et al., 2016] et [Pagès-Panloup, 2018] is based on a multilevel combination of pathwise averages of discretized schemes of overdamped-Langevin...
