Revealed preference theory equates choices with preferences over the consequences these choices induce. Nevertheless, if a decision criterion prescribes an act for reasons unrelated to its consequences, the inference drawn regarding preferences can be misleading. I study the behaviour of non-...

Invariant coordinate selection (ICS) is a dimension reduction method, used as a preliminary step for clustering and outlier detection. It has been primarily applied to multivariate data. This work introduces a coordinate-free definition of ICS in an abstract Euclidean space and extends the method...

A scan method for functional data indexed in space has been developed. The scan statistic is derived from the Hotelling test statistic for functional data, extending the univariate and multivariate Gaussian spatial scan statistics. This method consistently outperforms existing techniques in...

This study examines the underadoption of digital wallets as network goods through a field experiment conducted in Jordan. We elicit consumers’ and merchants’ willingness-to-pay (WTP) for interoperable mobile wallets using an incentive-compatible mechanism and measure their expectations regarding...

We introduce a non-zero-sum game between a government and a legislative body to study the optimal level of debt. Each player, with different time preferences, can intervene on the stochastic dynamics of the debt-to-GDP ratio via singular stochastic controls, in view of minimiz-ing non-continuously...

The presence of zeroes in Compositional Data (CoDa) is a thorny issue for Aitchison’s classical log-ratio analysis. Building upon our previous geometric approach (Faugeras (2023)), we study the full CoDa simplex from the perspective of affine geometry. This view allows to regard CoDa as points (and...

This paper uses a reform to Chile’s school choice system to study student socioeconomic segregation with a focus on student demand and school selectivity. The reform increases the subsidies that schools receive for low socioeconomic status students. I exploit this shock to schools’ incentives to...

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has received broad criticism for its role in spreading misinformation (1–5). In its 2024 Global Risks Report, the World Economic Forum ranked AI-amplified misinformation as one of the most severe risks that the world currently faces (6). In this context,...
