We analyze a periodic review stochastic inventory model with T periods and I items. At the beginning of each period, the inventory position of each item can be adjusted by placing an order or by salvaging some of the inventory. There is a limited capacity for the total inventory held at the end...

Problem definition. Motivated by the debate around drivers' welfare in on-demand transportation, we propose a framework to evaluate current practices and also possible alternatives. We study a setting in which riders seek drivers and a platform facilitates such matches over the course of the...

We consider an online assortment optimization problem where we have n substitutable products with fixed reusable capacities c1,...,cn. In each period t, a user with some preferences (potentially adversarially chosen) arrives to the seller's platform who offers a subset of products St, from the...

We develop a model of Cournot competition between capacity-constrained firms that sell a single good to multiple regions. We provide a novel characterization for the unique equilibrium allocation of the good across regions and design an algorithm to compute it. We show that a reduction in...

One of the important limitations of the SRISK measure of systemic risk, proposed by Brownlees and Engle and Acharya, Engle and Richardson, is its reliance on stock market data without much validation against the institutions' fundamentals based on its financial statements. We propose a financial...

A realistic specification for consumer heterogeneity should allow for both multiple market segments and within-segment heterogeneity. Such a flexible heterogeneity specification, which we term as multimodal consumer heterogeneity (MCH), raises considerable modeling challenge. We propose an...
