Measuring the Stringency of Building Height Regulations
ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel methodology to measure the stringency of building height regulations. This measure gauges the difference in building heights with and without regulations. The primary challenge is to recover unobserved building heights in the absence of regulations.

Connectivity and Selective Rural Migration
ABSTRACT How does infrastructure shape rural development? Using household panel data from a nationally representative sample of Chinese villages, matched to high‐resolution highway maps, we find that road expansion between 2000 and 2015 operates mainly through reallocation, with less productive farmers scaling down or exiting and more productive ...

OVERLAPPING MULTIGRID METHODS AS AN EFFICIENT APPROACH FOR SOLVING THE BLACK-SCHOLES EQUATION
In this paper the modification of a two-level multigrid method by allowing an overlap between adjacent subdomains and its application to a one-dimensional Black-Scholes equation is described.

The Causal Effect of Parents' Education on Children's Earnings
ABSTRACT We develop and estimate a model of endogenous schooling and earnings to isolate the causal effect of parents' education on children's outcomes. Identification uses earnings differences among children with equal schooling whose parents have different schooling.

A Quantile Model of Firm Investment
ABSTRACT Are firms risk averse? We propose a dynamic model of firm investment under uncertainty that captures firms' risk attitudes through quantile preferences. The firm maximizes its present value, defined as current profits and investment plus the discounted value of the τ$\tau$‐quantile of its value next period.

The Evolution of Interest‐Rate Models: From the Yield Curve to the Swaption Cube
ABSTRACT Interest‐rate modelling is often taught as a catalogue of competing stochastic equations, obscuring why models were created and why modern sell‐side desks use several simultaneously. This survey reorganises the field around five layers of a pricing architecture: curve construction; arbitrage‐free dynamics; volatility‐smile representation ...

Explicit and linearly implicit peer methods for the solution of the compressible Euler equations
Wir entwickeln neue Verfahren für die Lösung der der numerischen Wettervorhersage zugrundeliegenden Gleichungen. Die erste Schwierigkeit dabei ist, dass Schallwellen auf Grund der Kompressibilität auftreten. Wenn man ein explizites Verfahren benutzt, beschränken Schallwellen die maximale Zeitschrittweite auf Grund der CFL-Bedingung.
