We study the effect of ex-ante information asymmetries on revenue in common-value secondprice auctions (SPA). The motivating application of our results is to online advertising auctions in the presence of \cookies," which allow individual advertisers to recognize advertising opportunities (...

Dealing with the erosion of terrestrial biodiversity has become of key importance in order to ensure ecosystems sustainability. Agricultural and forestry activities are one major anthropogenic driver of this decline. The underlying land-use changes result in the alteration of species habitats....

Regression models have been developed for the case where the dependent variable is a vector of shares. Some of them, from the marketing literature, are easy to interpret but quite simple (Model A). Other models, from the compositional data analysis literature, allow a large complexity but their...

Public employment programs play a large role in many developing countries' anti-poverty strategies, but their net impact on the incomes of the poor will depend on both direct program earnings as well as indirect effects through changes induced in market wages and employment. We estimate this...

Technical standards, especially for telecommunications, are the foundation of the modern economy and play a fundamental role in everyday life. Their importance will only increase as we move into the age of the so-called "Internet of Things". In this presentation, we will discuss how modern telecom...

We develop a model of matching frictions in international good markets and study its implications for individual and aggregate trade flows. The model is an extension of the Eaton and Kortum (2002) framework to matching frictions. At the aggregate level, matching frictions have a monotonic and...

This paper studies inference on fixed effects in a linear regression model estimated from network data. An important special case of our setup is the two-way regression model, which is a workhorse method in the analysis of matched data sets. Networks are typically quite sparse and it is difficult...

We study robust decision making in sequential search. The searcher is unaware of the distribution of values of unexplored alternatives. Her decision rule should be dynamically robust, in the sense that it should perform close to Bayesian-optimal under any prior, at each point of time, and after...
