(Vanderbilt University, Department of History, 2016)For decades, tensions flared between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland with little recognition or action on the part of American presidents. Even in the face of human rights atrocities and political oppression, ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2005)We introduce a concept of status equilibrium for local public good economies. A status equilibrium specifies one status index for each agent in an economy. These indices determine agents' cost shares in any possible ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2001)The term "new economy" has, more than anything, come to mean a technological transformation, and in particular its embodiment in the computer and the internet. These technologies are more human capital intensive than earlier ...

(Vanderbilt University, 2005)We make four main contributions to the theory of network formation. (1) The problem of network formation with farsighted agents can be formulated as an abstract network formation game. (2) In any farsighted network formation ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2006)Given the preferences of players and the rules governing network formation, what networks are likely to emerge and persist? And how do individuals and coalitions evaluate possible consequences of their actions in forming ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2011)This paper shows that parallel import policy can act as an instrument of strategic trade policy. We demonstrate this result in two-country international duopoly where a domestic monopolist competes with a rival firm in the ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2010)Abstract: We develop a strategic model of network interdiction in a non-cooperative game of flow. A security agency operates a network with arc capacities. An adversary, endowed with a bounded quantity of bads, chooses a ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2008)The Nash equilibria of a tax-setting game between two governments who can set nonlinear income tax schedules for a perfectly mobile workforce whose members differ in unobserved skill levels are examined. Each government ...
-
(Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Economics, 2004-04)A social choice function satisfies the tops-only property if the chosen alternative only depends on each person's report of his most-preferred alternatives on the range of this function. On many domains, strategy-proofness ...
-
(Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2022-12-30)BackgroundThough deep brain stimulation (DBS) shows increasing potential in treatment-resistant depression (TRD), the underlying neural mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we investigated functional and structural connectivities ...
-
(Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics & Astronomy, 2008-04-27)Blazars AP Librae and 3c279 are analyzed for microvariability using a technique known as structure function analysis. AP Librae was observed in April of 2005 and 3c279 was observed in April of 2007. The data for AP Librae ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2010)Abstract: This paper brings together two of the most important solution concepts of game theory –subgame-perfect Nash equilibrium of a non-cooperative game and the core of a cooperativegame. Our approach rests on two ...
-
(Springer Verlag, 1984)The results of a subjective reaction test on a sample of 440 Costa Ricans indicate that in societies where educational levels are not generally high, social status groups may be differentiated phonologically by the use of ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2004)This paper uses a recursive time-non-separable expected utility function to separate between the intertemporal elasticity of substitution (IES) and a measure of relative risk aversion to bets in terms of money (RAM). Risk ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2008)The standard power utility function is widely used to explain asset prices. It assumes that the coefficient of relative risk aversion is the inverse of the elasticity of substitution. Here I use the Kihlstrom and Mirman ...
