Chronic silencing of subsets of layer 5 projection neurons has distinct effects on the laminar distribution of PV interneurons and the perineuronal nets in the adult primary motor and somatosensory cortex. Abstract Neural networks are established throughout cortical development, which require the right ratios of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons ...

Feedback and Contagion through Distressed Competition
ABSTRACT Firms tend to compete more aggressively when facing financial distress. This intensified competition reduces profit margins, pushing them further into distress and adversely affecting their industry peers. To study such feedback and contagion effects, we incorporate strategic competition in a dynamic model with long‐term defaultable debt ...

Asymmetric Pass‐Through and Competition
ABSTRACT We study the retail price pass‐through of four major tax changes in petroleum products using daily pricing data from gas stations on small Greek islands. We find that (i) the pass‐through of the tax hikes is five times higher than for the tax decrease, (ii) the pass‐through of the tax hikes increases with competition, while that of the tax ...

Monopoly Versus Dual‐Channel Distribution With Multiple Retailers
ABSTRACT This paper examines how downstream competition shapes a manufacturer's decision to adopt a dual‐channel structure—supplying independent retailers via secret two‐part tariff contracts while also operating a direct channel. We show that the shape of the inverse demand function plays a key role in this decision.

When indemnity insurance fails: Parametric coverage under binding budget and risk constraints
Abstract In high‐risk environments, traditional indemnity insurance is often unaffordable or ineffective, despite its well‐known optimality under expected utility. We compare excess‐of‐loss indemnity insurance with parametric insurance within a common mean‐variance framework, allowing for fixed costs, heterogeneous premium loadings, and binding budget ...

Networked Regional Resilience: Diffusion of Risk and Adaptation Across Interconnected Regions
ABSTRACT Regions face not only direct exposure to economic and physical shocks but also indirect consequences of actions in interconnected regions. This paper examines how socio‐spatial networks shape regional resilience to contagious shocks through dynamic feedback between risk diffusion and adaptation diffusion.

Peer Effects on Climate Change Beliefs
ABSTRACT Understanding how climate change beliefs are shaped by peer networks is critical for designing effective climate communication strategies, yet the degree of peer influence across spatial and political contexts remains insufficiently understood.
