• Monetary policy, macroprudential policy, and banking stability: evidence from the euro area

  Maddaloni, Angela; Peydró, José-Luis (European Central Bank, 2013)

  We analyze the impact on lending standards of monetary policy rates and macroprudential policy before the 2008 crisis, and of monetary rates and long-term public liquidity during the crisis. Exploiting the euro-area ...

• Neural mechanisms mediating degrees of strategic uncertainty

  Nagel, Rosemarie; Brovelli, Andrea; Heinemann, Frank; Coricelli, Giorgio (Oxford University Press, 2018)

  In social interactions, strategic uncertainty arises when the outcome of one’s choice depends on the choices of others. An important question is whether strategic uncertainty can be resolved by assessing subjective ...
• Matching information

  Chade, Hector; Eeckhout, Jan (Wiley, 2018)

  We analyze the optimal allocation of experts to teams, where experts differ in the precision of their information, and study the assortative matching properties of the resulting assignment. The main insight is that in ...
• Power-law partial correlation network models

  Barigozzi, Matteo; Brownlees, Christian, 1979-; Lugosi, Gábor (The Institute of Mathematical Statistics and the Bernoulli Society, 2018)

  We introduce a class of partial correlation network models whose network structure is determined by a random graph. In particular in this work we focus on a version of the model in which the random graph has a power-law ...
• A nearest neighbor estimate of the residual variance

  Devroye, Luc; Györfi, László; Lugosi, Gábor; Walk, Harro (The Institute of Mathematical Statistics and the Bernoulli Society, 2018)

  We study the problem of estimating the smallest achievable mean-squared error in regression function estimation. The problem is equivalent to estimating the second moment of the regression function of Y on X∈Rd. We introduce ...
• Moment bounds for some fractional stochastic heat equations on the ball

  Nualart, Eulàlia (The Institute of Mathematical Statistics and the Bernoulli Society, 2018)

  In this paper, we obtain upper and lower bounds for the moments of the solution to a class of fractional stochastic heat equations on the ball driven by a Gaussian noise which is white in time and has a spatial correlation ...

  Willem Bolderdijk, Jan; Brouwer, Claire; Cornelissen, Gert (Frontiers, 2018)

• “Betting on nature” or “betting on others”: anti-coordination induces uniquely high levels of entropy

  Chierchia, Gabriele; Nagel, Rosemarie; Coricelli, Giorgio (Nature Research, 2018)

  Uncertainty in the form of risk or ambiguity can arise from the interaction with nature and other players, while strategic uncertainty arises only in interactions with others. Here, we systematically compare binary decisions ...
