Title: Stochastic Stability in Binary Choice Coordination Games Author(s): STAUDIGL, Mathias Date: 2011 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI MWP Abstract: Recent literature in evolutionary game theory is devoted to the question of robust equilibrium selection under noisy best-response dynamics. In this paper we present a complete picture of equilibrium selection for asymmetric ...

Title: Stock Prices and Economic Fluctuations: A Markov Switching Structural Vector Autoregressive Analysis Author(s): LANNE, Markku; LUETKEPOHL, Helmut Date: 2008 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: The role of expectations for economic fluctuations has received considerable attention in recent business cycle analysis. We exploit Markov regime switching models to identify shocks in cointegrated structural vector ...

Title: Strategic Bidding in Multi-unit Auctions with Capacity Constrained Bidders: The New York capacity market Author(s): SCHWENEN, Sebastian Date: 2012 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI RSCAS Abstract: This paper employs a simple model to describe bidding behavior in multi-unit uniform price procurement auctions when firms are capacity constrained. Using data from the New York City capacity auctions, I find that capacity ...

Title: Strategic Campaigning with Vote and Turnout Buying: Theory and evidence Author(s): CASAS, Agustin Date: 2012 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI MWP Abstract: In this paper, I model the relationship between potential voters and a politician, who can pay citizens to vote for him – vote buying – or to show up to vote – turnout buying. This model is used to explore the optimal ...

Title: Strategic Mass Killings Author(s): ESTEBAN, Joan; MORELLI, Massimo; ROHNER, Dominic Date: 2010 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: Since World War II there have been about fifty episodes of large-scale mass killings of civilians and massive forced displacements. They were usually meticulously planned and independent of military goals. We provide a ...

Title: Strategic Wage Bargaining, Labor Market Volatility and Persistence Author(s): HERTWECK, Matthias S. Date: 2006 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: This paper modifies the standard Mortensen-Pissarides job matching model in order to explain the cyclical behavior of vacancies and unemployment. The modifications include strategic wage bargaining (Hall and Milgrom, ...

Title: A Structural Solution to Roaming in Europe Author(s): SHORTALL, Tony Date: 2010 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI RSCAS Abstract: This paper suggests that international roaming markets suffer from structural flaws in the way that roaming agreements are established in Europe. The initial roaming interventions by the European Commission in 2007 have ...

Title: Structural Vector Autoregressions with Markov Switching Author(s): LANNE, Markku; LUETKEPOHL, Helmut; MACIEJOWSKA, Katarzyna Date: 2009 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: Abstract. It is argued that in structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) analysis a Markov regime switching (MS) property can be exploited to identify shocks if the reduced form error covariance matrix varies across regimes. ...

Title: Structural Vector Autoregressions with Markov Switching: Combining conventional with statistical identification of shocks Author(s): HERWARTZ, Helmut; LUETKEPOHL, Helmut Date: 2011 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: In structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) analysis a Markov regime switching (MS) property can be exploited to identify shocks if the reduced form error covariance matrix varies across regimes. Unfortunately, these shocks ...

Title: Structural Vector Autoregressions with Nonnormal Residuals Author(s): LANNE, Markku; LUETKEPOHL, Helmut Date: 2005 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: Structural Vector Autoregressive Analysis for Cointegrated Variables Author(s): LUETKEPOHL, Helmut Date: 2005 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO

Title: Structural versus Behavioral Measures in the Deregulation of Electricity Markets: An Experimental Investigation Guided by Theory and Policy Concerns Author(s): VAN KOTEN, Silvester; ORTMANN, Andreas Date: 2011-02-25 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI RSCAS Abstract: We try to better understand the comparative advantages of structural and behavioral measures of deregulation in electricity markets, an eminent policy issue for which the experimental evidence is scant and problematic. ...

Title: The Structure of Multiple Credit Relationships: Evidence from US Firm Author(s): GUISO, Luigi; MINNETTI, Raul Date: 2007 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI ECO Abstract: When firms borrow from multiple concentrated creditors such as banks they appear to differentiate their allocation of borrowing. In this paper, we put forward hypotheses for this borrowing pattern based on incomplete ...

Title: The Structure of the Lattices of Pure Strategy Nash Equilibria of Binary Games of Strategic Complements Author(s): RODRIGUEZ BARRAQUER, Tomas Date: 2012 Type of Publication: Working Paper Series/Report no.: EUI MWP Abstract: It has long been established in the literature that the set of pure strategy Nash equilibria of any binary game of strategic complements among a set N of players can be seen as a lattice on the set of all subsets of N under ...
