In this paper, we consider a class of mathematical programs governed by second-order cone constrained parameterized generalized equations. We reformulate the necessary optimality conditions as a system of nonsmooth equations under linear independence constraint qualification and the strict...

Matrix conic optimization induced by spectral norm (MOSN) has found important applications in many fields. This paper focus on the optimality conditions and perturbation analysis of the MOSN problem. The Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions of the MOSN problem can be reformulated as a...

This study develops a consumption-based asset pricing model in which domestic consumers can buy goods from domestic and foreign markets but can only invest in domestic markets. In this model, the exchange rate influences asset prices through the marginal utility of consumption and increases the...

In my dissertation, I examine factors associated with firms' submission of auditor selection for shareholder ratification and test if shareholder ratification of auditor selection is associated with the extent of price competition in the audit market (as measured by audit fees) and audit quality...

This paper investigates the association between management turnover following financial restatements and the probability of subsequent restatements. We find that restating firms that replace management (CEO and/or CFO) are more likely to restate their financial statements again. We also find...

Recessions leave scars on the labor market. Over 200 million people across the globe are estimated to be unemployed at present resulting from the Great Recession of 2007–09. We assess the human cost of increased unemployment by surveying what is known about the effects of past recessions....
