Firms’ Choices of Wage-Setting Protocols

Publisher: name: Stanford Digital Repository
Year: 2022
Subjects: economics

description: We study a labor market characterized by search frictions, departing from most theoretical and quantitative studies by allowing firms to choose between posting non-negotiable wage offers and bargaining wages with individual workers. We use the model to study the positive and normative implications of heterogeneous wage-setting strategies in labor markets, as well as the potential effect of policies that seek to regulate wage-setting. We analytically derive - and empirically validate - a testable prediction from the model regarding the cross-sectional prevalence of bargaining and renegotiation of wages among workers. We then estimate the model and use it to evaluate counterfactuals in which either wage-setting procedure is mandated. We find that eliminating bargaining reduces the overall gender gap in wages by 6%, the education gap by 3%, and residual wage dispersion by 12%, while leading to welfare losses for workers. Similar numbers are observed when bargaining is mandated, with ensuing welfare gains for workers. Either policy raises output by 1-3% by eliminating inefficient job mobility, but accounting for firm responses in vacancy creation can overturn these effects.

A Model of Focusing in Political Choice

Year: 2022
Subjects: electoral competition
issue salience
bottom-up attention;
behavioral political economy
polarization
income inequality;
redistribution

description: This paper develops a model of voters’ and politicians’ behavior based on the notion that voters focus disproportionately on and, hence, overweigh certain attributes of policies. We assume that policies have two attributes—resources devoted to two distinct issues (e.g., defense and education)—and that voters focus more on the attribute in which their options differ more. First, we consider exogenous policies and show that focusing polarizes the electorate. Second, we consider the endogenous supply of policies by politicians running for office and show that focusing leads to inefficiencies: voters that are more focused are more influential; distorted attention empowers social groups that are larger and more sensitive to changes on either issue; resources are channelled towards divisive issues. Finally, we show that augmenting classical models of electoral competition with focusing can contribute to explain puzzling stylized facts such as the inverse correlation between income inequality and redistribution.

description: We consider the electron-positron pair creation by a photon in an external constant electric field. The presented treatment is based on a purely quasiclassical calculation of the imaginary part of the on-shell photon polarization operator. By using this approach we find the pair production rate for photons with polarization parallel as well as orthogonal to the external electric field in the leading order in the parameter $eE / m ^ 2$, which has been recently found by other methods. For the orthogonal polarization we also find a new contribution to the rate, which is leading in the ratio of the photon energy to the electron mass $ω/m$. We also reproduce by a purely geometrical calculation the exponential factor in the probability of the stimulated pair creation at arbitrary energy of the photon.

Subjects: search frictions
unemployment
business cycles

description: Based on patterns of employment transitions, we identify three different types of workers in the US labor market: α’s β’s and γ’s. Workers of type α make up over half of all workers, are most likely to remain on the same job for more than 2 years and, when they become unemployed, typically find a new job within 1 quarter. Workers of type γ comprise less than one-fifth of workers, have a low probability of staying on the same job for more than 2 years and, when they become unemployed, face a high probability of remaining jobless for more than 1 year. Workers of type β are in between αs and γ’s. The earnings losses caused by displacement are relatively small and transitory for α-workers, while they are large and persistent for γ-workers. During the Great Recession, excess unemployment for α-workers rose by little and was reabsorbed quickly; unemployment for γ-workers rose by 20 percentage points and was not reabsorbed 4 years after its peak. We use a search-theoretic model of the labor market to rationalize the different patterns of employment transitions across types. The model naturally explains both the variation in the consequences of job displacement across types, and the variation in the dynamics of unemployment during the Great Recession. Our view is that several puzzling micro and macro phenomena about the labor market are driven by the behavior of the small group of γ-workers.

description: Mortgage amortization schedules are illiquid savings plans comparable in size to pension programs; however, little is known about their effects on wealth accumulation. Using individual administrative data and plausibly exogenous variation in the timing of home purchase (ex. childbirth-driven) around a 2013 Dutch reform, we find a near one-forone rise in net worth for each dollar of amortization. Households leave other savings and liabilities unchanged, and instead increase labor supply and reduce consumption. Effects hold even for regular savers and older households. This has important macroprudential implications and suggests homeownership financed via amortizing mortgages is instrumental for household wealth building.

description: The Kondo semiconductor $Yb B_{12}$ exhibits a spin and charge gap of approximately 15 meV. Close to the gap energy narrow dispersive collective excitations were identified by previous inelastic neutron scattering experiments. We present a theoretical analysis of these excitations. Starting from a periodic Anderson model for crystalline electric field (CEF) split 4f states we derive the hybridized quasiparticle bands in slave boson mean-field approximation and calculate the momentum dependent dynamical susceptibility in random phase approximation (RPA). We show that a small difference in the hybridization of the two CEF (quasi-) quartets leads to the appearance of two dispersive spin resonance excitations at the continuum threshold. Their intensity is largest at the antiferromagnetic (AF) zone boundary point and they have an upward dispersion which merges with the continuum less than halfway into the Brillouin zone. Our theoretical analysis explains the most salient features of previously unexplained experiments on the magnetic excitations of $Yb B_{12}$.

The Geography of Job Creation and Job Destruction

Year: 2022
Subjects: economics

description: Spatial differences in unemployment rates are large and persistent. Our objective is to develop a quantitative theory of these differences. Considering the local unemployment rate as an (equilibrium) outcome between workers and firms, we document facts on both sides of the labor market. First, we confirm recent findings that differences in separation rates (unemployment inflows) are more important than differences in job-finding rates (unemployment outflows) in accounting for local unemployment differences. Second, we present novel facts on the differences in job-creation and job-filling rates. We document that local labor markets with lower unemployment rates are tighter, have lower vacancy filling rates, and higher average vacancy duration. These facts constitute empirical regularities in the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom. On the theory side, we demonstrate that a Diamond-Mortensen-Pissarides model with endogenous separations quantitatively accounts for all the documented facts on the geography of job creation and job destruction. Furthermore, we demonstrate that this model not only matches labor market differences across space but also over the business cycle.

description: The Casimir forces between two plates moving parallel to each other are found by calculating the vacuum electromagnetic stress tensor. The perpendicular force between the plates is modified by the motion but there is no lateral force on the plates. Electromagnetic vacuum fluctuations do not therefore give rise to "quantum friction" in this case, contrary to previous assertions. The result shows that the Casimir-Polder force on a particle moving at constant speed parallel to a plate also has no lateral component.

Comparison of the e-h correlations from these colliding systems allows one to study the system-size dependence of heavy quark jet-medium interactions. We also report on the relative charm and bottom contributions to non-photonic electrons extracted from correlations measured in pp collisions. Our results, when combined with $R_{AA}$ measurements of non-photonic electrons, constrain the charm and bottom energy loss in the dense medium.

title: Population genetics and epidemiological effects on Venturia inaequalis from mixed cultivar apple orchards
Creators: name: Passey, Thomas A. J.
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2019

description: The apple industry in the UK produces half a million tonnes of fruit a year; its most economically important disease is apple scab caused by the fungal pathogen Venturia inaequalis. Mixing cultivars with differing resistance to the pathogen, in the same orchard, has been shown to reduce the levels of apple scab. In this study we investigated the population genetics and epidemiology of apple scab in mixed cultivar orchards. Using molecular techniques, populations of V. inaequalis differed on the hosts present in an orchard, this difference remained over time. This indicates a “super race” of the pathogen that can infect all of the cultivars present has not emerged and become dominant, therefore making the concept of mixed cultivar orchards more feasible. The lack of emergence of a super race might be, in part, due to asexual conidia spores forming a proportion of primary inoculum as opposed to being purely from sexually produced ascospores. Conidia accounted for 20-50% of the primary inoculum in the orchard studied. The importance of conidia is likely to be heavily dependent on local conditions. For a reduction in levels of apple scab in a mixed cultivar orchard it is important that the cultivars present have differing resistance. Comparing scab populations on a number of desert and cider cultivars showed that populations on cider cultivars are most different. An assembled V. inaequalis genome is presented and was used to align isolates from different cultivars within the same orchard. Looking at differences between these isolates has indicated that there is a lack of mating occurring between isolates from the different cultivars present within the same orchard. This indicates that mating is most likely initiated between isolates on the same leaf. The findings of this thesis could contribute to apple orchard practises, regarding apple scab control, in the short, medium and long term.

description: In this article, we analyze a 7-dimensional $BF$ theory that, upon dimensional reduction, transforms into an effective 4-dimensional action in which a generic metric is involved. A constraint is imposed in such a way that this is the Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker metric characterized by a scale factor $a(t)=\mathrm{exp}(H_0 t)$ with a Hubble constant $H_{0}=67.70 \,\rm [km\, s^{-1}\,Mpc^{-1}]$. We also compute the barotropic parameter $ω\equiv p/ρ$ from our solutions. Three different scenarios are explored, in which the model transitions from quintessence to phantom regimes, crossing the theoretical phantom divide line. Consequently, the effective action represents a quintom-like scenario. Moreover, we derive some analytic solutions for the scale factor by treating it as a dynamical variable in the effective action. In this case, different outcomes are obtained, where the model can transit from a cosmological constant to a quintessence regime; however, it cannot cross the theoretical phantom divide line. However, this simplistic model successfully captures distinct phases of cosmic expansion.

Present Bias Amplifies the Balance-Sheet Channels of Macroeconomic Policy

Subjects: economics

description: We study the effect of monetary and fiscal policy in a heterogeneous-agent model where households have present-biased time preferences and naive beliefs. The model features a liquid asset and illiquid home equity, which households can use as collateral for borrowing. Because present bias substantially increases households' marginal propensity to consume (MPC), present bias increases the impact of fiscal policy. Present bias also amplifies the effect of monetary policy but, at the same time, slows down the speed of monetary transmission. Interest rate cuts incentivize households to conduct cash-out refinances, which become targeted liquidity-injections to high-MPC households. But present bias also introduces a motive for households to procrastinate refinancing their mortgages, which slows down the speed with which this monetary channel operates.

description: The multiscale variance stabilization Transform (MSVST) has recently been proposed for Poisson data denoising. This procedure, which is nonparametric, is based on thresholding wavelet coefficients. We present in this paper an extension of the MSVST to 3D data (in fact 2D-1D data) when the third dimension is not a spatial dimension, but the wavelength, the energy, or the time. We show that the MSVST can be used for detecting and characterizing astrophysical sources of high-energy gamma rays, using realistic simulated observations with the Large Area Telescope (LAT). The LAT was launched in June 2008 on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope mission. The MSVST algorithm is very fast relative to traditional likelihood model fitting, and permits efficient detection across the time dimension and immediate estimation of spectral properties. Astrophysical sources of gamma rays, especially active galaxies, are typically quite variable, and our current work may lead to a reliable method to quickly characterize the flaring properties of newly-detected sources.

Masking on the high-frequency side of a masking tone : effects on masked threshold of selectively masking low-frequency combination tones of different types formed by signal and masker
Creators: name: Krammer, Franz Georg
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: When signals are presented on the immediate high-frequency side of a pure-tone masker, it is not the signal, but rather combination tones, that are detected at masked threshold (Greenwood, 1971b. At low to moderate masker intensities, the detected combination tone is 2f1 minus f2, where f1 is the masker frequency and is the signal frequency. At higher masker levels, the combination tone f2-f1 becomes large enough to play a role. To investigate this role, the combination tones f2-f1 and 2f1-f2 were selectively masked in different low-frequency regions, to identify their effects. As has been known, the notch region on the high side of the pure-tone masking pattern creates a secondary peak, which shifts upward in frequency and height as masker intensity is raised. Results indicate that the frequency location of this secondary peak has an upper limit at 1.85f1, and that the secondary peak marks the beginning of signal-determined masked thresholds. At masker levels sufficient to shift this secondary peak upward, beyond 1.5 times the masker frequency (f1), both 2f1-f2 (or C1) and f2-f1 (or Dl) are deleted with about equal likelihood when signals are in the higher-frequency part of the notch region, at frequencies between l.5f1 and the secondary peak,, That is, either C1 or D1, or both, may be detected since their intensities become quite similar at higher levels, as supported by more direct estimates (Greenwood, 1971b, 1972a,b,c; Hall, 1971, 1972a,b).

description: We study the effects of the addition of the charm quark on the QCD equation of state at zero and nonzero chemical potential on lattices with $N_t=6$. Our ensembles are quenched with respect to charm and the charm quark is a valence staggered quark. Along the trajectory of constant physics the ratio $m_s/m_c$ is kept constant after tuning the charm quark mass at a lattice spacing of about 0.09 fm. We find that the charm quark has a significant contribution to the equation of state at zero chemical potential already at temperatures between about $1.2T_c$ and $2T_c$. The additional contribution at nonzero chemical potential vanishes within the current statistical uncertainty.

Tracing the International Transmission of a Crisis through Multinational Firms

Year: 2022
Subjects: economics

description: We study how shocks to individual firms propagate globally, beyond countries where shocked firms operate. We identify a shock to one firm, a German bank, which resulted in a lending cut to German firms. Multinational parent firms located in Germany were directly harmed by the lending cut. International affiliates of affected multinationals supported their parents through internal lending and their real growth fell sharply. The total impact in foreign countries was large. The findings reveal that shocks to individual firms can impact growth internationally, even if firms operate only in one country, and that global internal capital markets propagate shocks.

description: The increased multidrug resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) to the present-day known antibiotics has stimulated academic and industrial efforts globally for the development of novel antibacterial agents. Natural compounds as potential drug leads are gaining significant attention due to their less toxic and more tolerant nature. In the current study, the natural product-based compounds were explored as probable inhibitors of UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine:D-glutamate (MurD) ligase from A.baumannii (AbMurD) to provide a new class of drug leads. The prepared natural library of 3,16,714 compounds from ZINC database was screened into the active site of AbMurD using in silico high-throughput virtual screening which resulted in 100 compounds having high binding affinities. Further screening through flexible molecular docking yielded four potential compounds selected on the basis of estimated binding affinity (ΔG) and favorable protein-ligand interactions. MD simulation of these four compounds under physiological conditions and free binding energy calculations using MM/PBSA (molecular mechanics with Poisson- Boltzmann and surface area solvation) approach revealed three compounds ZINC08879777, ZINC30726863, and ZINC95486217 as potential binders of AbMurD. The calculated physicochemical and ADME properties of these compounds revealed that they can be exploited and modified to improve their binding affinity with the enzyme. Two compounds were purchased and tested against bacterial cell cultures of A. baumannii, Salmonella Typhi, and Staphylococcus aureus to determine their broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. The results suggest that the identified compounds can be exploited as potential herbal leads to target both Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma

description: Language Processing systems such as Part-of-speech tagging, Named entity recognition, Machine translation, Speech recognition, and Language modeling (LM) are well-studied in high-resource languages. Nevertheless, research on these systems for several low-resource languages, including Bodo, Mizo, Nagamese, and others, is either yet to commence or is in its nascent stages. Language model plays a vital role in the downstream tasks of modern NLP. Extensive studies are carried out on LMs for high-resource languages. Nevertheless, languages such as Bodo, Rabha, and Mising continue to lack coverage. In this study, we first present BodoBERT, a language model for the Bodo language. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first such effort to develop a language model for Bodo. Secondly, we present an ensemble DL-based POS tagging model for Bodo. The POS tagging model is based on combinations of BiLSTM with CRF and stacked embedding of BodoBERT with BytePairEmbeddings. We cover several language models in the experiment to see how well they work in POS tagging tasks. The best-performing model achieves an F1 score of 0.8041. A comparative experiment was also conducted on Assamese POS taggers, considering that the language is spoken in the same region as Bodo.

The processes live on the one-dimensional lattice and their correlation kernels correspond to projection operators in the l^2 Hilbert space on the lattice. Moreover, these projections are spectral projections associated to certain selfadjoint second order difference operators on the lattice. The aim of the note is to demonstrate that the difference operators in question can be efficiently employed in the study of limit transitions inside the family {P}.

description: This paper uses new bond-level data on sovereign borrowing and defaults during 1869-1914 to quantify a channel of contagion via banks’ reputation for monitoring borrowers. Concerns over reputation incentivized Britain’s merchant banks (who underwrote sovereign bonds) to monitor and exert influence over sovereigns. Default signaled to investors that a bank was less willing or able to write and support quality issues, indicating that its other bonds may underperform in the future. Consistent with reputation-based contagion, I find that comovement between defaulting and non-defaulting bonds is six times larger when the bonds share an underwriter. To isolate the causal effect of a shared underwriter, I exploit within-country variation in bonds’ underwriters. Testing predictions from a dynamic game where underwriters build a reputation for monitoring, I find further evidence supporting reputation as the mechanism – as opposed to alternative explanations such as wealth effects. These findings highlight that the reputation of intermediaries that monitor and intervene in crises can be a powerful source of contagion unrelated to a borrower’s fundamentals.

Non-Abelian Strings: From Weak to Strong Coupling and Back via Duality

description: The crossover transition from weak coupling at large ξto strong coupling at small ξis studied in N=2 supersymmetric gauge theory with the U(N) gauge group and N_f>N (here ξis the Fayet--Iliopoulos parameter). We find that at strong coupling a dual non-Abelian weakly coupled N=2 theory exists which describes low-energy physics at small ξ. The dual gauge group is U(N_f-N). The dual theory has N_f flavors of light dyons, to be compared with N_f quarks in the original U(N) theory. Both theories support non-Abelian strings. In each of these two regimes there are two varieties of physical excitations: elementary fields and nonperturbative composite states bound by confining strings. These varieties interchange upon transition from one regime to the other. We conjecture that the composite stringy states can be related to Seiberg's M fields.

What Money Can Buy: How Market Exchange Promotes Values

Subjects: market exchange

description: This paper studies market participants’ concerns about the moral and social values of their counterparts in market exchange. Using a survey, a laboratory experiment, and an online experiment, we investigate whether consumers prefer to purchase from counterparts whose behavior indicates support for the consumers’ values—even when those values are orthogonal to the product or transaction—and whether sellers anticipate and respond to such concerns accordingly. We document two key findings supporting these relationships. First, we find that consumers prefer exchanging and are willing to pay more to exchange with counterparts whose actions express support for the consumers’ values, even when the consumers’ purchasing decisions have no instrumental impact on the promotion of those values. Second, when sellers anticipate the possibility of such exchange, they change their behavior to reflect greater support for the values held by buyers. Our findings thus question the typical assumption of impersonality in market exchange and suggest that the presence of opportunities for gain through market transactions may promote and shape the values that individuals publicly support.
title: Unfolding the legitimation of breakthrough technological innovations: a framework for analysis through the lenses of technological innovation systems
Creators: name: Talvera Fabra, Irene
Publisher: name: University of Reading

description: This thesis constitutes a pioneering effort to explore the mechanisms of innovation legitimation, a critical process in enabling movement of breakthrough innovations from the formative phase to a wider adoption. Guided by the importance of understanding why most breakthrough technological innovations fail to move beyond the formative phase of adoption and acquire critical mass on one hand, and the paucity of studies on the early phases of the innovation phenomena on the other, this research reviews the most relevant innovation theories and models in search of solid theoretical and analytical starting points to conduct the empirical study. Technological innovation systems (TISs) is selected as the most appropriate lens to explain the early phases of the innovation phenomena. Built on general system theory and coevolutionary perspectives of innovation, TIS views technological innovation as a collective endeavour of actors, networks and institutions. Legitimation is identified in TIS literature as a critical process to move innovation from formative phases to wider diffusion. However, surprisingly, legitimation is largely under-researched in TIS literature. Taking a critical realist perspective, this research explores TIS legitimation through qualitative research across two case studies for two different breakthrough technological innovations, in which document analysis and participant observation complements 33 semistructured interviews with high profile experts. This thesis' findings advance knowledge on how legitimation is built across different institutional contexts. The findings reveal the critical role of system builders along the legitimation process. The research identifies the extent of their transformative capacity when acting individually or in alliance with incumbent firms. Moreover, this thesis evidences the relevance of the pragmatic legitimacy dimension, largely ignored in TIS literature. In relation to this, this thesis partially supports the idea that societal problems and public debates contribute to legitimate breakthrough innovations, as research data suggests that adopters will additionally perform pragmatic evaluations in search of appropriable benefits. Finally, this research discloses new relevant mechanisms for the legitimation of TISs, like the need to align the different organising visions in the TIS or the criticality to co-create knowledge. The findings of this thesis have important implications for theory and practice. On the theoretical side, the research validates the principles of TIS for innovations outside the energy sector and it offers a set of propositions and a framework that contribute to unfold the mechanisms of innovation legitimation. Moreover, the framework and the developed propositions provide innovation practitioners with a practical tool to develop successful innovation strategies.

Dynamic Preference "Reversals" and Time Inconsistency

Subjects: economics

description: This paper studies social learning and information pooling within the household using a lab experiment with 400 married couples in Chennai, India. Participants are asked to guess the fraction of red balls in an urn after each spouse privately receives draws from the urn and then has a chance to learn their spouse’s draws through a face-to-face discussion. Guesses are paid for accuracy and the payoff is split equally between the spouses, aligning their incentives. We find that husbands’ beliefs respond less than half as much to information that was collected by their wives, relative to ‘own’ information. This failure of learning is not due to communication frictions: when we directly share their wife’s information with husbands, they continue to under-weight it relative to their own draws. Wives do not display this behavior, and instead equally weight their own and their spouse’s information. In a follow-up experiment with pairs of strangers, individuals of both genders put more weight on their own information than on their partner’s. We conclude that people have a general tendency to under-weight others’ information relative to their own, and speculate that a norm of wives deferring to their husbands may play a countervailing role in our context.
Post-Newtonian expansions for perfect fluids

description: We prove the existence of a large class of dynamical solutions to the Einstein-Euler equations that have a first post-Newtonian expansion. The results here are based on the elliptic-hyperbolic formulation of the Einstein-Euler equations used in \cite{Oli06}, which contains a singular parameter $\ep = v_T/c$, where $v_T$ is a characteristic velocity associated with the fluid and $c$ is the speed of light. As in \cite{Oli06}, energy estimates on weighted Sobolev spaces are used to analyze the behavior of solutions to the Einstein-Euler equations in the limit $\ep\searrow 0$, and to demonstrate the validity of the first post-Newtonian expansion as an approximation.
Generalized refraction using lenslet arrays

description: We have recently started to investigate 2D arrays of confocal lens pairs. Miniaturization of the lens pairs can make the array behave ray-optically like a homogeneous medium. Here we generalize the geometry of the lens pairs. These generalisations include a sideways shift of the lens centres and a change in the orientation of both lenses in each pair. We investigate the basic ray optics of the resulting arrays, and illustrate these with movies rendered using ray-tracing software. We suggest that confocal lenslet arrays could be used to realize ray-optically some recent metamaterials concepts such as the coordinate-transform design paradigm.

Private Renegotiations and Government Interventions in Debt Chains

description: We propose a model of strategic debt renegotiation in which businesses are sequentially interconnected through their liabilities. This financing structure, which we refer to as a debt chain, gives rise to externalities, as a lender’s willingness to provide concessions to its privately informed borrower depends on how the lender’s own liabilities are expected to be renegotiated. Our analysis reveals how government interventions that aim to prevent default waves should account for these private renegotiation incentives and their interlinkages. Our results shed light on the effectiveness of subsidies and debt reduction programs following economic shocks such as pandemics or financial crises.
