The benefit that consumers derive from experience goods depends on how well they understand attributes of the choice set prior to purchase, and pre-purchase ignorance can lead to inefficient purchases.

In the seventies, Frank Spitzer introduced interacting particle systems to the mathematics community. These systems consist of particles evolving randomly according to Markovian dynamics that conserve certain quantities. Interacting particle systems were already known in the physics and biophysics...

Standard methods for estimating production functions in the Olley and Pakes (1996) tradition require assumptions on input choices. We introduce a new method that exploits (increasingly available) data on a firm’s expectations of its future output and inputs that allows us to obtain consistent...
