GCC Countries Strategic Options in a Global Transition to Zero-Net Emissions

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

Using a multi-level perspective approach combined with top-down macroeconomic models, we analyze the situation of the GCC countries in the perspective of a global transition to zero-net emissions before the end of the century. Based on these analyses, we p ...

Essays in macro-finance and deep learning

Goutham Gopalakrishna

This thesis studies the origins and consequences of financial crises, and computational techniques to solve continuous-time economic models that explain such crises. The first chapter shows that financial recessions are typically characterised by a large ...

Processing load, and not stimulus evidence, determines the duration of unconscious visual feature integration

Michael Herzog, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer, Lukas Vogelsang

Integration across space and time is essential for the analysis of motion, low contrast, and many more stimuli. A crucial question is what determines the duration of integration. Based on classical models of decision-making, one might expect that integrati ...

Two coupled chains are simpler than one: field-induced chirality in a frustrated spin ladder

Joël Mesot, Shuang Wang

Although the frustrated (zigzag) spin chain is the Drosophila of frustrated magnetism, our understanding of a pair of coupled zigzag chains (frustrated spin ladder) in a magnetic field is still lacking. We address this problem through nuclear magnetic reso ...

Classical nucleation theory predicts the shape of the nucleus in homogeneous solidification

Michele Ceriotti, Bingqing Cheng

Macroscopic models of nucleation provide powerful tools for understanding activated phase transition processes. These models do not provide atomistic insights and can thus sometimes lack material-specific descriptions. Here, we provide a comprehensive fram ...

The triangular value of patents

Albina Khairullina

This thesis addresses the question of a patent value from three different angles. It comprises three papers on the patent valuation methods. The patent valuation issues are well-known to the world of research and practice. However, the debates over what th ...

Controlling oscillations in high-order Discontinuous Galerkin schemes using artificial viscosity tuned by neural networks

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Deep Ray, Niccolo' Discacciati

High-order numerical solvers for conservation laws suffer from Gibbs phenomenon close to discontinuities, leading to spurious oscillations and a detrimental effect on the solution accuracy. A possible strategy to reduce it comprises adding a suitable amoun ...

Financial Stability and the Macroeconomy : the Role of Bank Liquidity Regulation and Deposit Insurance

Corinne Dubois

The financial crisis of 2007-2009 drew attention to the essential role of banks for the macroeconomy and to the importance of having a resilient financial sector. A vulnerability in the financial sector spills over to the real economy and can drive it into ...

Asset Pricing When 'This Time Is Different'

Pierre Collin-Dufresne

Recent evidence suggests that younger people update beliefs in response to aggregate shocks more than older people. We embed this generational learning bias in an equilibrium model in which agents have recursive preferences and are uncertain about exogenou ...

Entrepreneurial Behavior: A Reconceptualization and Extension Based on Identity Theory

Marc Gruber

Research summaryEntrepreneurial behavior is core to our understanding of entrepreneurship. Yet, research progress is hindered because most studies adopt a traditional perspective of the construct that is embedded in economic rationality and focused on for- ...

Parameter Learning in General Equilibrium: The Asset Pricing Implications

Pierre Collin-Dufresne

Parameter learning strongly amplifies the impact of macroeconomic shocks on marginal utility when the representative agent has a preference for early resolution of uncertainty. This occurs as rational belief updating generates subjective long-run consumpti ...

Pressure dependence of the magnetization plateaus ofSrCu2(BO3)2

Frédéric Mila

We show that the critical fields of the magnetization plateaus of the Shastry-Sutherland model decrease significantly upon increasing the ratio of inter- to intradimer coupling and accordingly that the magnetization plateaus of SrCu2(BO3)2 shift to lower f ...

Essays in Empirical Corporate Finance

Stefano Colonnello

This dissertation consists of three chapters. The first chapter examines whether the availability of credit default swaps (CDS) has consequences for creditor governance. CDSs offer creditors the opportunity to hedge credit risk and may impact their willing ...

Are French Households Car-Use Addicts? A microeconomic perspective

Matthieu Marie Cochon de Lapparent

This article presents a microeconometric analysis of household car use in France. To characterize car use dependence, the myopic and rational addiction models are estimated using panel data drawn from the French "Car Fleet" survey. Significantly, the assum ...

Macroeconomic conditions and a firm's investment decisions

We propose a model of a firm's reversible investment decision with macroeconomic conditions based on optimal switching of a diffusion regime. The switching costs and the cash flow generated from the firm depend on a business cycle alternating via a Markov ...

Rhodium(III)/Copper(II)-Promoted trans-Selective Heteroaryl Acyloxylation of Alkynes: Stereodefined Access to trans-Enol Esters

Nicolai Cramer, Van Manh Pham

Enol esters are versatile synthetic building blocks which can be elaborated by a wide variety of transformations. The classical synthesis by O-selective enolate acylation often hampers control of the E/Z selectivity with highly substituted substrates. A rh ...

Expectation-Driven Cycles in the Housing Market: Evidence from Survey Data

Luisa Lambertini

Using a vector-autoregression (VAR) model and data from the University of Michigan Survey of Consumers, we provide evidence on the importance of news and consumers' beliefs for housing-market dynamics and aggregate fluctuations. We document that innovation ...

Geomorphic signatures on brutsaert base flow recession analysis

Andrea Rinaldo, Marc Parlange, Enrico Bertuzzo, Steven Vincent Weijs, Raphaël Mutzner, Ludovico Nicotina, Serena Ceola

This paper addresses the signatures of catchment geomorphology on base flow recession curves. Its relevance relates to the implied predictability of base flow features, which are central to catchment-scale transport processes and to ecohydrological functio ...

Global simulations of tokamak microturbulence: finite beta effects and collisions

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Trach-Minh Tran, Alberto Bottino, Sébastien Jolliet, Ben McMillan, Thibaut Vernay

In this paper, we present global nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations including finite beta effects and collisions in tokamak geometry. Global electromagnetic simulations using conventional delta-f particle in cell methods are very demanding, with respect to ...
