Tracing back from Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes (1978) many approaches have been proposed to extend the DEA production model to non-convex technologies. The FDH method were introduced by Deprins, Simar and Tulkens (1984) and it only assumes a free disposal assumption of the technology. This paper...

We present a dynamic model of free riding in which n infinitely lived agents choose between private consumption and contributions to a durable public good g. We characterize the set of continuous Markov equilibria in economies with reversibility, where investments can be positive or negative; and...

We estimate willingness to pay for small reductions in the risk of suffering a range of morbid health conditions using a stated-preference survey fielded to an internet panel that is representative of the US population. The adverse health conditions are described using a generic health utility...

We study a repeated principal-agent model with subjective evaluations. We make minimal assumptions on the joint distribution of the principal's output and the agent's private signal. We show that there exists a class of perfect Bayesian equilibrium which approaches efficiency as the discount...

Competitiveness is typically measured by the performance change when going from a piece-rate scheme to a tournament or by the choice of performing in a tournament or in a piece-rate scheme. Men are often found to be more competitive than women with both measures. In this talk I will discuss to what...

There are many situations in which individuals have a choice of whether or not to observe the eventual outcome. In these instances, individuals often prefer to avoid observing the outcome. The standard von Neumann-Morgenstern (vNM) Expected Utility model cannot accommodate these cases, since it...

We characterize the optimal anticipated monetary policy in economies where agents have precautionary savings motives due to random production opportunities and the presence of borrowing constraints. Non storable production makes intrinsically useless outside money valuable to insure consumption. We...

The paper analyzes the competitive effects of vertical contracts in a situation where competition exists both upstream and downstream, and both sides have balanced and differentiated bargaining power. It devel- ops the framework of sequential bilateral negotiations between two rival manufacturers...
