Stable Price Dispersion under Heterogeneous Buyer Consideration
The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study the pricing of homogeneous products sold to customers who consider different sets of suppliers. We identify prices that are stable in the sense that no firm wishes to undercut a rival or to raise its price when rivals are able to respond by offering special deals.

Why Is Exclusivity in Broadcasting Rights Prevalent and Why Does Simple Regulation Fail?
The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pay‐TV firms compete both downstream to attract viewers and upstream to acquire broadcasting rights. Because profits inherited from downstream competition satisfy a convexity property, allocating rights to the dominant firm maximizes the industry profit.

STbayes: An R package for creating, fitting and understanding Bayesian models of social transmission
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract A critical consequence of joining social groups is the possibility of social transmission of information related to novel behaviours or resources. Network‐based diffusion analysis (NBDA) has emerged as a leading frequentist framework for inferring and quantifying social transmission, particularly in non‐human animal populations.

Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...

Multivariate generalized Pareto distributions along extreme directions
ExtremesWhen modeling a vector of risk variables, extreme scenarios are often of special interest. The peaks-over-thresholds method hinges on the notion that, asymptotically, the excesses over a vector of high thresholds follow a multivariate generalized Pareto distribution.

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract The National School Lunch Program, the largest child nutrition initiative in the United States, provides free or reduced‐price lunches to low‐income children. However, the current eligibility criteria are based on household‐level metrics, potentially causing bias that does not adequately protect children in need.
