Three public goods and lexicographic preferences : replacement principle
(Centre interuniversitaire de recherche en économie quantitative, 2021-03)
We study the problem of locating multiple public goods for a group of agents
with single-peaked preferences over an interval. An alternative specifies for each
public good a location. In Miyagawa (1998) each agent consumes ...
How are wages determined? : a quasi-experimental test of wage determination theories
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques, 2023-01-02)
We use novel quasi-experimental variation to (i) test whether firm-specific demand shocks impact wages, and (ii) to disentangle predictions coming from wage
bargaining and firm upward sloping labor supply curve (wage ...
Respecting improvement in markets with indivisible goods
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques, 2023-09-17)
We study markets with indivisible goods where monetary compensations are fixed (or are
not possible). Each individual is endowed with an object and a preference relation over all objects. Respect for improvement means ...
Accident-Induced absence from work and wage growth
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques, 2024-01-14)
How do short absences from work affect workers’ labor trajectory? We use linked
employer-employee administrative data from Hungary, with rich administrative
health records, and use unexpected and mild accidents with no ...
Nonparametric estimation of the density of a change-point
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques, 2024-01)
The paper considers a panel model where the regression coe¢ cients
undergo changes at an unknown time point, di§erentfor each series. The timings
of changes are assumed to be independent, identically distributed, and ...
Student-optimal interdistrict school choice : district-based versus school-based admissions
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques, 2022)
Hafalir, Kojima and Yenmez (2022) introduce a model of interdistrict school choice:
each district consists of a set of schools and the district’s admission rule places applicants to the schools in the district. We show ...
On the constrained efficiency of strategy-proof random assignment
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2023-04-25)
We study random assignment of indivisible objects among a set of agents with strict
preferences. Random Serial Dictatorship is known to be only ex-post efficient and
there exist mechanisms which Pareto-dominate it ex-ante. ...
