We develop powerful new size-correction procedures for nonstandard hypothesis testing environments in which the asymptotic distribution of a test statistic is discontinuous in a parameter under the null hypothesis. Examples of this form of testing problem are pervasive in econometrics and...

We document and study the strategy and performance of two distinct types of investors in Los Angeles between 1988-2009 who purchased homes with the intention of quickly re-selling: middlemen buy at below-market prices from motivated sellers and re-sell quickly; speculators target periods and areas...

In 2007, countries in the Euro periphery were enjoying stable growth, low deficits, and low spreads. Then the financial crisis erupted and pushed them into deep recessions, raising their deficits and debt levels. By 2010, they were facing severe debt problems. Spreads increased and, surprisingly,...

We use the citizen-candidate model to study the differential incentives that alternative voting rules provide for candidate entry, and their effect on policy polarization. In particular, we show that allowing voters to cast multiple votes leads to equilibria which support multiple candidate...

In most archaeological and anthropological applications, time series data on frequency changes of different cultural traits (e.g. different types of pots found in the archaeological record) are the only available information about past cultural patterns. Researchers in these fields would benefit...

Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) necessary to commercialize a product are frequently controlled by many firms. Therefore, they are often sold together through patent pools. Traditional policy towards pools focused on the difficult assessment of multiple marginalisation, in the case of...
