On the equivalence between subgame perfection and sequentiality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We identify the maximal set of finite extensive forms for which the sets of subgame perfect and sequential equilibrium strategies coincide for any possible assignment of the payoff function.

A Multiperiod Equilibrium Pricing Model

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2014
We propose an equilibrium pricing model in a dynamic multiperiod stochastic framework with uncertain income. There are one tradable risky asset (stock/commodity), one nontradable underlying (temperature), and also a contingent claim (weather derivative ...

A Test of the Coase Conjecture Using Prices of Electronic Books

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Coase Conjecture predicts that a durable‐goods monopolist without commitment will rapidly cut price toward marginal cost. We test this prediction in the electronic‐book market using release‐day prices. To proxy for marginal cost, we use competitive prices of public‐domain electronic books on the same platforms.

Subgame‐perfect equilibrium in games with almost perfect information: Dispensing with public randomization

open access: yesTheoretical Economics, 2017
Harris, Reny, and Robson (1995) added a public randomization device to dynamic games with almost perfect information to ensure existence of subgame perfect equilibria (SPE). We show that when Nature's moves are atomless in the original game, public randomization does not enlarge the set of SPE payoffs: any SPE obtained using public randomization can be

Optimal Portfolio Selection of Mean-Variance Utility with Stochastic Interest Rate

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces, 2020
In order to tackle the problem of how investors in financial markets allocate wealth to stochastic interest rate governed by a nested stochastic differential equations (SDEs), this paper employs the Nash equilibrium theory of the subgame perfect ...

Economic Harmony—A Rational Theory of Fairness and Cooperation in Strategic Interactions

open access: yesGames, 2022
Experimental studies show that the Nash equilibrium and its refinements are poor predictors of behavior in non-cooperative strategic games. Cooperation models, such as ERC and inequality aversion, yield superior predictions compared to the standard game ...

Adding Realism to Theories of Taxpayer Compliance

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Explaining why people pay taxes has not been a central focus in the many important contributions of Jim Cox. Even so, I argue here that his work has greatly affected the way that we think about taxpayer compliance, by adding both directly and indirectly much needed realism to the theories and the applications of compliance. These contributions

Is the rent too high? Land ownership and monopoly power

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Pricing power in real estate markets can reduce housing supply and redevelopment relative to the social optimum. We show how pricing power interacts with popular redevelopment subsidies and zoning regulations. Using building‐level rental income data from NYC, we find that increased concentration is correlated with increased rents.

Resource Competition in Blockchain Networks Under Cloud and Device Enabled Participation

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Blockchain technology is a promising resource management architecture due to its ability of building trust in a decentralized transaction. Block mining participants, i.e. miners, are incentivized with reward for successfully mining blocks. Unfortunately,
