Determinantal point processes were introduced by physicists and probabilists in the 70's. They reappeared in the mathematical landscape at the beginnig of this century in the context of random matrices theory. Recently, they also attracted the attention of the statistical community, notably because...

We estimate the demand for health insurance in the California Affordable Care Act marketplace (Covered California) without using parametric assumptions about the unobserved components of utility. To do this, we develop a computational method for constructing sharp identified sets in a nonparametric...

Partial equilibrium mechanism design separates the problem at hand from the rest of the economy and tries to solve it, assuming ceteris paribus (other things remain equal). This assumption is false in general, since it holds only when preferences are indeed separable across sectors. Thus, if we...

Should there be limits on startup acquisitions by dominant firms? Efficiency requires that startups sell their technology to the right incumbents, that they develop the right technology, and that they invest the right amount in R&D. In a model of differentiated oligopoly, we show distortions...

We study the effect of the predictability of order imbalance on market quality. We measure the degree of predictability by using the predictive likelihood from a dynamic linear model where the dependent variable is the day-ahead order imbalance. Empirically, we show that increasing order imbalance...

We use two randomized controlled trials in Bangladesh to study a simple water conservation technology for rice production called \Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD)." Despite proven results in agronomic trials, our first experiment shows that AWD only saves water and increases profits in villages...
