A prominent explanation for Europe’s long history of political fragmentation and China’s tendency towards political unification is the fractured land hypothesis made famous by Diamond (1997a). We build a model to explore the effects of geography on political fragmentation. We find that topography,...

In this talk, we consider the problem of the modeling of a mean field game (MFG) of optimal stopping. After a basic presentation of the MFG theory, we first investigate a 1 dimensional case to understand the structure of such games. We then present a general framework for such MFG. In particular,...

Dyadic data are samples indexed by two units from the same population. Examples include trade flows between countries, relationships in a network or results of sports matches. Such data exhibit particular dependence patterns, affecting the statistical properties of the estimators. We establish in...

We develop a tool akin to the revelation principle for mechanism design with limited commitment. We identify a canonical class of mechanisms rich enough to replicate the payoffs of any equilibrium in a mechanism-selection game between an uninformed designer and a privately informed agent. A corner...

We study risk and maturity transformation when bank liabilities facilitate trade in goods markets and households face aggregate liquidity shocks. Banks’ balance sheets transform aggregate investment risk providing a stable source of liquidity to households. When investments are sufficiently risky...

Information frictions play an important role in many theories of expectation formation and macroeconomic fluctuations. We use a survey experiment to generate direct evidence on how people acquire and process information. Participants can buy different information signals that could help them...
