Exclusive Intermediation [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2014 In this paper, we argue that an important function fulfilled by intermediaries is to facilitate trust by enabling social pressure towards the enforcement of informal agreements. To that end, we develop a new model that uses network theory to show that intermediaries who have exclusivity over a large enough number of interaction opportunities are able ...

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2005 Two paradigms for the origin of electroweak superconductivity are a weakly coupled scalar condensate, and a strongly coupled fermion condensate. The former suffers from a finetuning problem unless there are cancelations to radiative corrections, while the latter presents potential discrepancies with precision electroweak physics.

Intermediated implementation [PDF]
European Economic Review, 2020 We examine problems of ``intermediated implementation,'' in which a single principal can only regulate limited aspects of the consumption bundles traded between intermediaries and agents with hidden characteristics. An example is sales, in which retailers offer menus of consumption bundles to customers with hidden tastes, whereas a manufacturer with a ...

International Journal of Industrial Organization, 2005 Abstract The paper offers a new theoretical framework to examine the role of intermediaries between creators and users of new inventions. We find that uncertainty about the profitability of investing in new inventions generates a basis for intermediation.

The Quarterly Journal of Economics, 2011 This paper develops a simple model of international trade with intermediation. We consider an economy with two islands and two types of agents, farmers and traders. Farmers can produce two goods, but in order to sell these goods in centralized (Walrasian) markets, they need to be matched with a trader, and this entails costly search.

Journal of Algebra, 1995 This is the fifth paper in the authors' series on the theme of integral closure and ramification of prime ideals in infinite algebraic field extensions. The first part includes a ring version of the structure theorem on the integral closure of a noetherian domain in a finite algebraic extension of its quotient field. A quasilocal domain \(R\) is called
