Iterative Elimination of Weakly Dominated Strategies in Binary Voting Agendas with Sequential Voting
Creators: name: Hummel, Patrick
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2005
Subjects: Key words: perfect information games, extensive games, backward induction, weakly dominated strategies, iterative elimination of weakly dominated strategies, binary voting agendas, sequential voting

description: In finite perfect information extensive (FPIE) games, backward induction (BI) gives rise to all pure-strategy subgame perfect Nash equilibria, and iterative elimination of weakly dominated strategies (IEWDS) may give different outcomes for different orders of elimination. Several conjectures were recently posed in an effort to better understand the relationship between BI and IEWDS in FPIE games. Four of these problems regard binary voting agendas with sequential voting and two alternatives. Those problems are: (1) Assuming no indifferences, is the BI strategy profile, "always vote for my preferred alternative", guaranteed to survive IEWDS using exhaustive elimination? (2) Does any order of IEWDS leave only strategy profiles that generate paths of play consistent with BI? (3) Does there exist an order of IEWDS that leaves only strategy profiles that generate paths of play consistent with BI? (4) Does any order of IEWDS leave at least one strategy profile that generates a path of play consistent with BI? This paper proves all four conjectures. Moreover, the first conjecture is generalized to agendas with indifferences, the second and third conjectures are shown to not hold for binary voting agendas with more than two alternatives, and I comment on additional results related to the last three
problems.

On Estimating the Mean In Bayesian Factor Analysis
Creators: name: Rowe, Daniel B.
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2000

description: In the Bayesian factor analysis model (Press & Shigemasu, 1989), the sample size was assumed to be large enough to estimate the overall population mean by the sample mean. In this paper, the procedure of estimating the population mean by the sample mean is compared to estimating it along with the other parameters both by Gibbs sampling and Iterated Conditional Modes. Results show that even in small samples, the Gibbs sampling and iterated conditional modes estimates of the mean are for practical purposes identical to the sample mean. Thus, the population mean is adequately estimated by its sample value.

Finite Perfect Information Extensive Games with Generic Payoffs
Creators: name: Hummel, Patrick
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2005
Subjects: perfect information games, extensive games, backward induction, weakly dominated strategies, iterative elimination of weakly dominated strategies, generic payoffs

description: In finite perfect information extensive (FPIE) games, backward induction (BI) gives rise to all pure-strategy subgame perfect Nash equilibria, and iterative elimination of weakly dominated strategies (IEWDS) may give different outcomes for different orders of elimination. Duggan recently posed several conjectures in an effort to better understand the relationship between BI and IEWDS in FPIE games. One conjecture states that the unique BI strategy profile in FPIE games with generic payoffs is guaranteed to survive IEWDS when all weakly dominated strategies are eliminated at every round. This paper exhibits a counterexample to this conjecture.

Inducing Liquidity in Thin Financial Markets through Combined-Value Trading Mechanisms
Creators: name: Bossaerts, Peter
name: Fine, Leslie

Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2000
Subjects: Liquidity, Portfolio trading, Financial markets, Experimental finance

description: Previous experimental research has shown that thin financial markets fail to fully equilibrate, in contrast with thick markets. A specific type of market risk is conjectured to be the reason, namely, the risk of partial execution of desired portfolio rearrangements in a system of parallel, unconnected double auction markets. This market risk causes liquidity to dry up before equilibrium is reached. To verify the conjecture, we organized markets directly as a portfolio trading mechanism, allowing agents to better coordinate their orders across securities. The mechanism is an implementation of the combined-value trading (CVT) system. We present evidence that our portfolio trading mechanism facilitates equilibration to the same extent as thick markets do. Like in thick markets, the emergence of equilibrium pricing cannot be attributed to chance. Inspection of order submission and trade activity reveals that subjects manage to exploit the direct linkages between markets presented by the CVT system.

An Explanation of Inefficient Redistribution: Transfers Insure Cohesive groups
Creators: name: Echenique, Federico
name: Eguia, Jon X.
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2005
Subjects: Inefficient redistribution, Cohesion, Insurance, Sectoral subsidies, Trade Policy, Collective Action

description: Redistributive policies often sustain inefficient economic sectors. Economists routinely argue that governments should let the sectors collapse, and compensate the affected agents. We explain why governments may instead prefer the inefficient redistribution. If income shocks in a given sector are more correlated than in the rest of the economy, and redistribution is related to individuals' income, then by sustaining a sector, the government is also providing its agents with insurance. The agents would lose this insurance if they relocate to another sector. Government transfers to sectors with correlated in- comes are therefore worth more than their monetary value. A preliminary analysis of the publicly-available data suggests that indeed agents in sectors that receive transfers are subject to more correlated income shocks. Our results imply that buying out inefficient sectors may not be the second-best policy when agents cannot fully insure themselves (markets are incomplete).

Citizen Candidates Under Uncertainty

Subjects: Citizen Candidates, Uncertainty, Strategic Voting, Sincere Voting

description: In this paper we make two contributions to the growing literature on "citizen-candidate" models of representative democracy. First, we add uncertainty about the total vote count. We show that in a society with a large electorate, where the outcome of the election is uncertain and where winning candidates receive a large reward from holding office, there will be a two-candidate equilibrium and no equilibria with a single candidate. Second, we introduce a new concept of equilibrium, which we term "sincere-strategic," and we show that with this refinement, the two equilibrium candidates will not be too extreme, one will lean to the left and the other one to the right.

The Approximation of Efficient Public Good Mechanisms by Simple Voting Schemes

Subjects: public goods

simple mechanisms

description: This paper compares the performance of simple voting rules, called referenda, to the performance of interim efficient mechanisms for the provision of a public good. In a referendum, voters simply vote for or against the provision of the public good, and production of the public good depends on whether or not the number of yes votes exceeds a prespecified threshold. Costs are shared equally. We show that in large populations for any interim efficient allocation rule, there exists a corresponding referendum that yields approximately the same total welfare when there are many individuals. Moreover, if there is a common value component to the voters' preferences, then there is a unique approximating referendum.

Trade rules for uncleared markets

Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2005
Subjects: market disequilibrium, trade rule, efficiency, strategy proofness, anonymity, no-envy, renegotiation proofness, voluntary trade

description: We analyze markets in which the price of a traded commodity is such that the supply and the demand are unequal. Under standard assumptions, the agents then have single peaked preferences on their consumption or production choices. For such markets, we propose a class of Uniform Trade rules each of which determines the volume of trade as the median of total demand, total supply, and an exogenous constant. Then these rules allocate this volume "uniformly" on either side of the market. We evaluate these "trade rules" on the basis of some standard axioms in the literature. We show that they uniquely satisfy Pareto optimality, strategy proofness, no-envy, and an informational simplicity axiom that we introduce. We also analyze the implications of anonymity, renegotiation proofness, and voluntary trade on this domain.

description: We investigate the construction of more precise estimates of a collection of population means using information about a related variable in the context of repeated sample surveys. The method is illustrated using poll results concerning presidential approval rating (our related variable is political party identification). We use post-stratification to construct these improved estimates, but since we don't have population level information on the post-stratifying variable, we construct a model for the manner in which the post-stratifier develops over time. In this manner, we obtain more precise estimates without making possibly untenable assumptions about the dynamics of our variable of interest, the presidential approval rating.

Subjects: scoring rule, proper scoring rule, subjective expected utility, Choquet expected utility, multiple priors, implementation, probability elicitation

description: On the domain of Choquet expected utility preferences with risk neutral lottery evaluation and totally monotone capacities, we demonstrate that proper scoring rules do not exist. This implies the non-existence of proper scoring rules for any larger class of preferences (CEU with convex capacities, multiple priors). We also show that if an agent whose behavior conforms to the multiple priors model is faced with a scoring rule for a subjective expected utility agent, she will always announce a probability belonging to her set of priors; moreover, for any prior in the set, there exists such a scoring rule inducing the agent to announce that prior.

Asymmetries in Exchange Behavior Incorrectly Interpreted as Evidence of Prospect Theory
Creators: name: Plott, Charles R.
name: Zeiler, Kathryn
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2005
Subjects: endowment effect, experimental methods, valuation, exchange

description: Systematic asymmetries in exchange behavior have been widely interpreted as support for endowment effect theory, that loss aversion associated with ownership creates an asymmetry in valuations and exchange behavior. According to this theory, which is an application of prospect theory, parting with an endowed object produces a loss that is greater than the gain from acquiring another object of otherwise equal value. The results also have been cited as general support for prospect theory, of which loss aversion is a fundamental component. The experiments reported here suggest that such interpretations of observed exchange asymmetries are incorrect. While exchange asymmetries are readily observable, the data reported here support the claim that measurements of preferences are confounded by experimental procedures. In other words, the data suggest that experimental procedures lead to observed exchange asymmetries. In treatments for which endowment effect theory would predict exchange asymmetries, we observe no asymmetries when we eliminate alternative explanations related to procedures. Therefore, our results do not support the use of observed exchange asymmetries as evidence of loss aversion, endowment effect theory or prospect theory and call into question normative legal analyses grounded in these theories of decision making.

Regulation, Taxation, and the Development of the German Universal Banking System, 1884-1913
Creators: name: Fohlin, Caroline
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2001

description: Previous researchers argue that the legal and regulatory environment helped shape the German financial system in the nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, with particular emphasis on the damaging effects of the stock-exchange law of 1896. This paper finds that the stock exchange law of 1896 exerted little measurable impact on the growth and concentration of the universal banking system or on the business turnover of universal banks relative to securities markets. The paper also shows that the English commercial banking sector and the German universal banking sector underwent similar movements toward concentration between 1884 and 1920 (both accelerating after 1912), despite no corresponding regulatory changes in England–further suggesting that consolidation of universal banking resulted from factors other than the 1896 law.

Policy Uncertainty, Electoral Securities and Redistribution
Creators: name: Mattozzi, Andrea
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2005
Subjects: Policy Uncertainty, Financial Markets, Redistribution

description: This paper investigates how uncertainty about the adoption of a redistribution policy affects political support for redistribution when individuals can trade policy contingent securities in the stock market. We show that the demand for redistribution is always smaller than in the case where no "policy-insurance market" is available. Consistent with the empirical evidence, our analysis implies that in economies with well-developed financial markets the level of redistribution decreases with the level of participation in these markets and with income inequality. We show that the existence of a policy insurance market may increase future expected inequality even if a majority of individuals are redistributing resources through private transfers.

Sophisticated EWA Learning and Strategic Teaching in Repeated Games
Creators: name: Camerer, Colin F.
name: Ho, Teck-Hua
name: Chong, Juin-Kuan
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2001

description: Most learning models assume players are adaptive (i.e., they respond only to their own previous experience and ignore others' payoff information) and behavior is not sensitive to the way in which players are matched. Empirical evidence suggests otherwise. In this paper, we extend our adaptive experience-weighted attraction (EWA) learning model to capture sophisticated learning and strategic teaching in repeated games.

The generalized model assumes there is a mixture of adaptive learners and sophisticated players. An adaptive learner adjusts his behavior the EWA way. A sophisticated player rationally best-responds to her forecasts of all other behaviors. A sophisticated player can be either myopic or farsighted. A farsighted player develops multiple-period rather than single-period forecasts of others' behaviors and chooses to "teach" the other players by choosing a strategy scenario that gives her the highest discounted net present value.

We estimate the model using data from p-beauty contests and repeated trust games with incomplete information. The generalized model is better than the adaptive EWA model in describing and predicting behavior. Including teaching also allows an empirical learning-based approach to reputation formation which predicts better than a quantal-response extension of the standard type-based approach.

Burmese Tree Rat
Chiromyscus chiropus
French: Rat de Fea / German: Burma-Fea-Baumratte / Spanish: Rata arboricola de Birmania
Other common names: Fea's Tree Rat, Indochinese Chiromyscus
Taxonomy. Mus chiropus Thomas, 1891,
Carin Hills, Burma (= Myanmar).
Chiromyscus chiropus was characterized by
a “masked” face for a long time before
A. E. Balakirev and colleagues in 2014
determined that the type specimen of C. chiropus did not have a face mask and that masked specimens belonged to a previously unnamed species, C. thomast. The true C. chiropus has been misidentified as Niviventer cremoriventer, especially in southern Vietnam. Because of recent taxonomic changes, specimens from regions previously included under C. chiropus (south-western China, northern Laos, northern and central Vietnam, and northern and central Thailand) need to be examined to determine their specific status as either C. chiropus, C. thomasi or C. langbianis. Monotypic.
Distribution. E Myanmar and S Vietnam, but range limits still unknown.
Descriptive notes. Head-body 138-160 mm, tail 200-233 mm, ear 19-20 mm, hindfoot 27-29 mm. No specific data are available for body weight. The Burmese Tree Rat is medium-sized, with bright ocherous dorsum that fades into venter with intermediate zone of orange buff and seems to extend onto chest and chin region. Venteris creamy white, with orange hue that extends onto inner thighs. Tail is long, unicolored, and dark brown proximally. Vibrissae are long, extending behind head, and ears are small, rounded, and pale brown on top. Claws are long and curved, although hallux has nail instead of claw. Skull is robust and has more convex profile when viewed from the side compared with other species of Chiromyscus. Diploid numberis 2n = 22.
Habitat. Moist tropical deciduous and evergreen forests, mosaic scrub areas and degraded or secondary regrowth.
Food and Feeding. No information.
Breeding. No information.
Activity patterns. The Burmese Tree Rat is nocturnal and arboreal.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. No information.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Burmese Tree Rat is in need of further study because there are so few museum specimens representing it, despite apparently being locally abundant. It may be found in degraded habitat, suggesting it can withstand some human pressure.

The Kariba Case Study
Creators: name: Scudder, Thayer
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2005
Subjects: Kariba Dam, resettlement, impoverishment, government policy, environmental degradation

description: The Kariba Dam, completed during the second half of the 1950s, was the first mainstream dam built on the Zambezi River. Its construction was partially financed by the largest loan that the World Bank had given up until that time. Considered a successful project even by affected people based on cost benefit analysis, Kariba also involved unacceptable environmental and social impacts. The involuntary resettlement of 57,000 people within the reservoir basin and immediately downstream from the dam was responsible for serious environmental degradation which was one of a number of factors that left a majority of those resettled impoverished. Other factors included inadequate institutional capacity, inadequate opportunities, adverse rural-urban terms of trade, the war for Zimbabwes independence and the bankruptcy of the political economy of Zambia.
Built as a single purpose hydro project, Karibas construction drastically altered, and regularized, the Zambezis natural regime. That adversely affected the flood recession agriculture of Zambian villagers living below the dam as well as the size and biodiversity of the Zambezi delta and the productivity of Mozambiques offshore fishery. Failure to properly drawdown the Kariba and Cahora Bassa reservoirs prior to increased rainfall during the 1999-2000 and 2000-2001 rainy seasons caused significant downstream loss of life, crops, and village and urban infrastructure in February-March 2000 and 2001.

Subjects: matching markets, core, lattice, Gale-Shapley Algorithm

description: We study many-to-one matchings, such as the assignment of students to colleges, where the students have preferences over the other students who would attend the same college. It is well known that the core of this model may be empty, without strong assumptions on agents' preferences. We introduce a method that finds all core matchings, if any exist. The method requires no assumptions on preferences. Our method also finds certain partial solutions that may be useful when the core is empty.
