Multidimensional Approaches to Ranking State‐Level Rurality to Enhance Comparisons Across States

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Single indicators such as rural population percentage can misrepresent a state's rural character, leading to flawed policy comparisons and resource allocation. This study introduces a multidimensional rurality index that combines population share, land area, and population density to create a more comprehensive ranking of US states ...

A Bivariate Extension of Type-II Generalized Crack Distribution for Modeling Heavy-Tailed Losses

Mathematics
As an extension of the (univariate) Birnbaum–Saunders distribution, the Type-II generalized crack (GCR2) distribution, built on an appropriate base density, provides a sufficient level of flexibility to fit various distributional shapes, including heavy ...

Asymmetric Platform Oligopoly

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a tractable model of asymmetric platform oligopoly with logit demand in which users from two distinct groups are subject to within‐group and cross‐group network effects and decide which platform to join. We characterize the equilibrium when platforms manage user access by setting participation fees for each user group.

Buyer‐Optimal Platform Design

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A platform matches a unit mass of sellers, each owning a single product of heterogeneous quality, to a unit mass of buyers with differing valuations for unit‐quality. After matching, sellers make take‐it‐or‐leave‐it price‐offers to buyers. Initially, valuations of buyers are only known to them and the platform, but sellers make inferences from
