We analyze the consequences of payoff externalities in social learning. The leading example is innovation adoption under network effects. When choosing whether to adopt a new innovation, an individual agent faces uncertainty about the quality of the innovation and about its popularity in the future...

Interactions between overlapping air quality regulations can have unintended impacts on polluting activities. We document one such potentially important interaction. Local regulators in areas constrained by one type of regulation—e.g., threshold-based local air quality standards—are incentivized to...

This paper proposes the establishment of a European Debt Agency (EDA) as a tool for the efficient management of Eurozone public debt , to address two primary risks: roll-over and sustainability risk. The proposed EDA would price its loans using a transparent formula that would anchor the price to...

In this paper we consider a SEIRD epidemic model for a population composed by two groups of individuals with asymmetric interaction. Given an approximate solution for the two-group model, we estimate the error of this approximation to the unknown solution to the second group based on the known...

This paper concerns how trade mechanism choice affects how decentralized markets respond to shocks and policy choices. We consider this issue in the context of housing market search. We pose a dynamic search model in which agents can trade by auction or negotiation, both featuring two-sided...

We study the Ramsey optimal monetary policy within the Golosov and Lucas (2007) state-dependent pricing framework. The model provides microfoundations for a nonlinear Phillips curve: the sensitivity of inflation to activity increases after large shocks due to an endogenous rise in the frequency of...

It can be difficult to predict market conditions, like consumer demand and production costs. Are there regulations, for monopolistic markets, that remain effective even when market conditions are unpredictable? Drawing from the literature on online optimization, I address this question using a new...

Should people's concern for the wellbeing of their descendants affect policy decisions? I consider a model in which people's dynastic utilities depend on the consumption of their descendants. The social welfare function is a discounted sum of past, present and future dynastic utilities. I establish...
