In this paper we obtain bounds under weaker nonparametric assumptions and explore how the bounds with assumptions imposed.

We study a panel structure with n subjects/entities being observed over T periods. We consider a class of models for each subject's data generating precess, and allow the unknown heterogeneity. In other words, we do not know many types we have, what the types are, and which subjects belong to...

Examining the accuracy of the monopolistic competition theory's predictions for import volumes, we assess whether this theory accounts for the empirical success of the gravity equation. Since certain factor-endowment based theories have the same prediction for import volumes, we employ...

This paper puts forth a concept of Adptivety Rational Equilibrium (A.R.E) where agents base decisions upon predictions of future values of endogenous variables whose actual values are determined by equilibrium equations.
