Aging Reduces Intestinal Stem Cell Activity in Killifish and Intermittent Fasting Reverses Intestinal Gene Expression Patterns. [PDF]
Intestinal stem cells occur in clusters, and the cycle time of stem cells increases with age. The age‐dependent decline in structural intestinal tissue homeostasis is associated with a decline in stem cell activity. Aging causes significant changes in intestinal gene expression; intermittent fasting from adulthood onwards results in a gene expression ...

Dr. Arthur Laffer is often associated with supply-side economics, i.e., the idea that low taxes and sound money foster economic growth. He could be seen as the best example of a late 20th century economist who reached policymakers, notably with his easy ...

Laffer points, area of fiscal contradictions and taxpayers’ acceptance power
The Laffer curve is the eternal problem of mathematical economics. Attempts to find the Laffer curve functions lead to new results that do not give the function in coordinates “tax burden - tax revenues” but give results in larger dimensions.

Debt Overhang and Lack of Lender's Commitment
Abstract The debt overhang of sovereigns or firms is modeled in the recent literature as a constrained efficient outcome of dynamic debt contracts under the lack of the borrower's commitment, where debt relief is not Pareto‐improving. The early literature observes another type of debt overhang where the borrower is discouraged from expending effort ...

Royalty taxation under tax competition and profit shifting
Abstract Multinational corporations increasingly use royalty payments for intellectual property rights to shift profits globally. This not only threatens the tax base of countries worldwide but also affects the nature of tax competition. Against this background, our theoretical analysis suggests a surprising solution to the problem of curbing profit ...

On the limits of rational expectations for policy analysis
Abstract In this lecture, I review work addressing three questions. First, are predictions about macro stabilization policies robust to reasonable departures from rational expectations? Second, do people's expectations converge to a particular set of rational expectations? Third, if they do converge, how quickly?

The Laffer Effect of Contribution Rate: The Case Study of Iranian Social Security Organization [PDF]
The Laffer curve represents a parabola relationship between tax revenues and tax rates, and identifies the tax rate that maximizes tax revenues for the government. The aim of this paper is to test whether there is such a relationship between contribution

The Horizontally S-Shaped Laffer Curve [PDF]
In a neoclassical growth model with incomplete markets and heterogeneous, liquidity-constrained agents, the properties of the Laffer curve depend on whether debt or transfers are adjusted to balance the government budget constraint. The Laffer curve conditional on public debt is horizontally S-shaped. Two opposing forces explain this result.

How do Laffer Curves Differ Across Countries? [PDF]
We seek to understand how Laffer curves differ across countries in the US and the EU-14, thereby providing insights into fiscal limits for government spending and the service of sovereign debt. As an application, we analyze the consequences for the permanent sustainability of current debt levels, when interest rates are permanently increased e.g.
