This study presents a three-stage game demonstrating how consumer demands for products and trees and net-zero emission requirements can affect a firm's incentive to undertake carbon capture, utilization, and storage technology (CCUS) efforts. On the policy front, the regulator sets a combination...

How do pandemics affect for-profit and not-for-profit organizations differently? To address this question, we analyze optimal lockdowns in a two-sector continuous-time individual-based mean-field epidemiological model. We uncover a unique solution that depends on network structure, lockdown...

We consider the problem of valuing inputs in a production environment in which input supply is uncertain. Inputs can be workers in a firm, risk factors for a disease, securities in a financial market, or nodes in a networked economy. Each input takes its values from a finite set, and uncertainty...

We study the Shapley wage function, a wage scheme in which a worker's pay depends both on the number of hours worked and on the output of the firm. We then provide a way to measure the distance of an arbitrary wage scheme to this function in limited datasets. In particular, for a fixed...

Aguiar, Pongou, and Tondji (2018) propose the Shapley distance as a measure of the extent to which output sharing among the stakeholders of an organization can be considered unfair. It measures the distance between an arbitrary pay profile and the Shapley pay profile under a given technology,...

We examine whether owners' decisions to delegate responsibilities to overconfident managers improve welfare. We develop a duopoly model with product differentiation, where firms compete in research and development (R&D) and output . Before firms compete, each owner makes a strategic decision...

We study procedures that embed clauses granting agents the right to oppose actions that are not in their interest, retract actions that face opposition, and punish harmful actions. Our analyses show that coalitional strategic behaviors under these procedures lead to reciprocal actions. We then...
