Dynamic economics with quantile preferences
This paper studies a dynamic quantile model for intertemporal decisions under uncertainty, in which the decision maker maximizes the τ‐quantile of the stream of future utilities, for τ ∈ (0,1). We present two sets of contributions. First, we generalize existing results in directions that are important for applications.

RAZOR‐THIN MASS ELECTIONS WITH HIGH TURNOUT
Abstract We argue that traditional voting models fail to fully explain the frequency of very close mass elections with high turnout. Instead, we model elections as a competition between incentive schemes to mobilize voters. We elucidate conditions under which parties might prefer close elections, as the potential to be pivotal motivates voters instead ...

Fighting terrorism: How to position rapid response teams?
Abstract In light of recent terrorist attacks, we introduce and study a Stackelberg game between a government and a terrorist. In this game, the government positions a number of heavily‐armed rapid response teams on a line segment (e.g., a long boulevard or shopping avenue) and then the terrorist attacks a location with the highest potential impact of ...

Dynamics of market making algorithms in dealer markets: Learning and tacit collusion
Abstract The widespread use of market‐making algorithms in electronic over‐the‐counter markets may give rise to unexpected effects resulting from the autonomous learning dynamics of these algorithms. In particular the possibility of “tacit collusion” among market makers has increasingly received regulatory scrutiny.

Existence results for a class of hemivariational-like inequality problems
In this work, we establish existence results for a class of hemivariational-like inequality problems driven by a trifunction and perturbed by a bifunction.

Optimal delegation and information transmission under limited awareness
We study the delegation problem between a principal and an agent, who not only has better information about the performance of the available actions but also superior awareness of the set of actions that are actually feasible. We provide conditions under which the agent finds it optimal to leave the principal unaware of relevant options.

On Hemicontinuity, Hype, and Hemorrhaging Humanity: A Survivor's Guide to Economics
You know what this really is? It's me trying to make sense of something that's been bothering me for years. I'm writing this with whatever wit I can muster, some precision I hope, and, I'll admit, more than a touch of philosophical irreverence. What keeps me up at night is this question: what happens when we build models that forget minds, when ...
