open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView., 2023
In commodity futures pricing models, the commodity present price is generally considered to reflect all information in the markets and past information is not regarded important. However, there is some empirical evidence that shows that this fact is unrealistic. In this paper, we consider some stochastic models with delay for pricing commodity futures.

Switching cost and store choice

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 105, Issue 1, Page 195-218, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Switching costs are generally regarded as anticompetitive as firms can raise prices to “locked‐in” consumers, at least up to the cost of switching to a lower‐priced alternative. However, there is some evidence, both theoretical and empirical, that tends to show the opposite.

Rising Longevity, Increasing the Retirement Age, and the Consequences for Knowledge‐based Long‐run Growth

open access: yesEconomica, Volume 90, Issue 357, Page 39-64, January 2023., 2023
We assess the long‐run growth effects of rising longevity and increasing the retirement age when growth is driven by purposeful research and development. In contrast to economies in which growth depends on learning‐by‐doing spillovers, raising the retirement age fosters economic growth.
