In the past years, there has been an extensive investigation of the class of stochastic volatility models for the evaluation of options and complex derivatives. These models have proven to be extremely useful in generalizing the classic Black-Scholes economy and accounting for discrepancies...

An explanation of the Dunning-Kruger effect is provided which does not require any psychological explanation, because it is derived as a statistical artefact. This is achieved by specifying a simple statistical model which explicitly takes the (random) boundary constraints into account. This...

The theoretical literature on asymmetric first-price auctions has focused mainly on settings with either (1) exactly two bidders or (2) an arbitrary number of bidders with types in a common support. Even though closed form solutions are typically impossible, there is enough structure in the...
