Fighting Uncertainty with Uncertainty: A Baby Step [PDF]
Theoretical Economics Letters, 2017 We can overcome uncertainty with uncertainty. Using randomness in our choices and in what we control, and hence in the decision making process, could potentially offset the uncertainty inherent in the environment and yield better outcomes. The example we

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 2014 We offer a new explanation as to why international trade is so volatile in response to economic shocks. Our approach combines the idea of uncertainty shocks with international trade. Firms order inputs from home and foreign suppliers. In response to an uncertainty shock firms disproportionately cut orders of foreign inputs due to higher fixed costs ...

The uncertainty of valuation [PDF]
Journal of Property Investment & Finance, 2003 Valuation is often said to be “an art not a science” but this relates to the techniques employed to calculate value not to the underlying concept itself. Valuation is the process of estimating price in the market place. Yet, such an estimation will be affected by uncertainties.

The Quarterly Journal of Economics, 2014 Abstract We develop a theory of endogenous uncertainty and business cycles in which short-lived shocks can generate long-lasting recessions. In the model, higher uncertainty about fundamentals discourages investment. Since agents learn from the actions of others, information flows slowly in times of low activity and uncertainty remains ...

Maxallent: Maximizers of all Entropies and Uncertainty of Uncertainty [PDF]
, 2013 The entropy maximum approach (Maxent) was developed as a minimization of the subjective uncertainty measured by the Boltzmann--Gibbs--Shannon entropy. Many new entropies have been invented in the second half of the 20th century.

Analysis of Product Sampling for New Product Diffusion Incorporating Multiple-Unit Ownership
Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014 Multiple-unit ownership of nondurable products is an important component of sales in many product categories. Based on the Bass model, this paper develops a new model considering the multiple-unit adoptions as a diffusion process under the influence of ...
