This paper considers three distinct hypothesis testing problems that arise in the context of identification of some nonparametric models with endogeneity. The first hypothesis testing problem concerns testing necessary conditions for identification in some nonparametric models with endogeneity...

The importance of forecasting wind power has grown in parallel with the increase in penetration of wind power generation on power systems. It can be loosely said, for the short term, that the uncertainty in wind power prediction is higher than in load forecasting. This very fact has strong...

We consider equilibrium timing decisions in a model with informational externalities. A number of players have private information about a common payoff parameter that determines the optimal time to invest. The players learn from each other in a continuous-time multi-stage game by observing the...

When investors disagree about the common factor of cashows, high beta assets are more sensitive to this aggregate disagreement than low beta ones and hence experience a greater divergence-of-opinion about their cashows...

Many countries regulate the supply of doctors by centrally fixing the number of places in medical schools. We estimate the return to gaining access to medical school in such a setting, by exploiting that admittance to medical school in the Netherlands is determined by a lottery. The earnings gain...
