Bilevel programming methods for computing single-leader-multi-follower equilibria in normal-form and polymatrix games

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2020
The concept of leader-follower (or Stackelberg) equilibrium plays a central role in a number of real-world applications bordering on mathematical optimization and game theory.

Pharmaceutical Pricing and R&D as a Global Public Good

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the international variation in the prices of branded pharmaceuticals. We consider short‐run profits, or quasi‐rents, as representing each country's contribution toward the global public good of therapeutic information embodied in new pharmaceuticals.

Payoff Shares in Two-Player Contests

open access: yesGames, 2016
In imperfectly discriminating contests with symmetric valuations, equilibrium payoffs are positive shares of the value of the prize. In contrast to a bargaining situation, players’ shares sum to less than one because a residual share of the value is lost

Variational Inequality and Distributed Learning for a Bidding Game in Electricity Supply Markets

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
This study uses a game-theoretic analysis of bid-based electricity supply market equilibrium. Electricity supply markets are modeled as strategic interactions of bidders that supply electric power to the market and the bidders' pure strategies are the ...

Tactical and Strategic Risks From Supply Disruptions in Competing Supply Chains

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Supply chain disruptions can lead to both tactical (i.e., loss of short‐term sales during a disruption) and strategic (i.e., loss of long‐term market share) consequences. We model the impact of a supply disruption on competing supply chains in which two firms compete for a limited backup supply.

Seeing like a citizen: Experimental evidence on how empowerment affects engagement with the state

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Building a strong and effective state requires revenue. Yet, in many low‐income countries, citizens do not make formal payments to the state or forego engaging with the state altogether due to vulnerability to opportunistic demands by state agents. We study two randomized interventions in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, designed to

Applied theory makeovers

open access: yesEconomica, EarlyView.
Abstract I argue that economists' distinction between ‘pure’ and ‘applied’ economic theory is often based on papers' stylistic markers rather than their methodology or scope. I illustrate this point with a model of price competition for boundedly rational consumers, due to Piccione and Spiegler. I first present its original, ‘pure style’ version.

Political Partisanship and State‐Level Bank Efficiency

open access: yesFinancial Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the relationship between political partisanship and commercial bank efficiency in the United States from 1972 to 2020, assessing the persistent influence of political affiliations at the state and District of Columbia levels. Bank efficiency scores are estimated using a double‐bootstrap approach, and the analysis is conducted within
