Tax cuts and tax compliance: evidence from grants to Green municipalities
Abstract This work examines whether a reduction in a salient local tax can increase tax compliance. To achieve identification, we leverage a quasi‐natural experiment occurring in Italy: since 2016, a regional law has granted a reduction in the waste tax burden for inhabitants of municipalities with an efficient waste collection system.

Variational inequalities associated with the semigroups generated by fractional Kolmogorov operators
In this paper we consider fractional Kolmogorov operators defined, in $\mathbb{R}^d$, by \[Λ_κ=(-Δ)^{α/2}+\fracκ{|x|^α} x\cdot \nabla,\] with $α\in (1,2)$, $α<(d+2)/2$ and $κ\in \mathbb{R}$. The operator $Λ_α$ generates a holomorphic semigroup $\{T_t^α\}_{t>0}$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ provided that $κ<κ_c$ where $κ_c$ is a critical coupling ...

Using home‐equity release to strengthen retirement incomes: potential and challenges
Abstract Using comprehensive administrative data on Danish retirees’ wealth, this paper documents how home‑equity holdings vary across age, income and wealth groups. We show – using simulated equity‑extraction scenarios – that accessing home equity could substantially increase retirement replacement rates throughout the socio‐economic distribution ...

Real Effects of Subjectivity in Measuring Fair Values
ABSTRACT This study examines how the subjectivity in measuring fair values of assets without readily observable market prices affects investment efficiency and shareholder value. When fair values are objective measures of asset value, they facilitate efficient investment decisions that align with shareholder interests.

Dutch dilemma: Housing prices and flood risk exposure
Abstract This article studies the impact of flood risk exposure on housing prices in a major river delta. Analyzing 1.8 million property transactions from 1998 to 2023 in the Netherlands, we find an average price discount of 1.1%. We observe considerable heterogeneity in price effects driven by exposure intensity, institutional settings that vary ...

A hybrid Tiebout model with vintage housing
Abstract This article examines how spatial variation in housing ages affects income segregation in US cities. We develop a dynamic general equilibrium hybrid Tiebout model with durable housing that combines local public finance and urban land use theories.

Home foreclosure discounts in auctions without reserve prices
Abstract This article estimates foreclosure discounts in Cape Town, South Africa, where, until 2019, foreclosure auctions occurred without reserve prices. Using newly constructed data linking sheriff auction notices to the universe of property transactions, rich property characteristics, and municipal service‐request records, I document large ...

On the sharp Hardy inequality in Sobolev–Slobodeckiĭ spaces
We study the sharp constant in the Hardy inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces defined on open subsets of the Euclidean space. We first list some properties of such a constant, as well as of the associated variational problem.
