Behavioural Asset Pricing: A Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Economics and Financial Issues, 2019
Neoclassical asset pricing is built on the premise investors are rational and there are unlimited arbitrage opportunities. Behavioural implications of irrational investors led to the development of the counter paradigm, behavioural asset pricing.

An adjoint method for neoclassical stellarator optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Stellarators are a promising route to steady-state fusion power. However, to achieve the required confinement, the magnetic geometry must be highly optimized. This optimization requires navigating high-dimensional spaces, often necessitating the use of gradient-based methods.

Correspondence: Neoclassical Realism and Its Critics

open access: yesInternational Security, 2018
In his article “On Systemic Paradigms and Domestic Politics,” Kevin Narizny criticizes neoclassical realism for incorporating domestic variables that are inconsistent with realist assumptions.1 Below, I argue that Narizny’s understanding of realism is ...

CEO's Early‐life Experience of Disasters and Corporate Environmental Performance

open access: yesAbacus, EarlyView.
We investigate the nexus between the early‐life disaster experiences of chief executive officers (CEOs) and their firms’ environmental performance metrics. We hypothesize that first‐hand experience of the adversities of natural disasters in the formative years of a CEO can catalyze a transformation in their environmental cognizance and perspective ...

Temporary Migration Decisions and Effects on Household Income and Diets in Rural Bangladesh

open access: yesAgricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Temporary migration is a widely observed phenomenon among poor rural households, yet often overlooked by policy‐makers and not captured well in standard household surveys. Although temporary migration is often related to agricultural seasonality, household preferences for temporary over longer‐term migration, and the differential effects of ...

Turbulent momentum transport due to neoclassical flows [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
Intrinsic toroidal rotation in a tokamak can be driven by turbulent momentum transport due to neoclassical flow effects breaking a symmetry of turbulence. In this paper we categorize the contributions due to neoclassical effects to the turbulent momentum transport, and evaluate each contribution using gyrokinetic simulations.

Neoclassical Pitch-Angle Scattering of Runaway Electrons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
It is discovered that the tokamak field geometry generates a pitch-angle scattering effect for runaway electrons. This neoclassical pitch-angle scattering is much stronger than the collisional scattering and invalidates the gyro-center model for runaway electrons.

Understanding Behavioral Explanations of the WTP-WTA Divergence Through a Neoclassical Lens: Implications for Environmental Policy

open access: yes, 2015
The often observed empirical divergence between WTA and WTP measures of welfare change continues to be a topic of interest to both theoretical and applied economists. The divergence has particularly important implications for environmental policy.
