Seminar: Jaume Vives-i-Bastida (Stanford)

Part of the Econometrics Seminar Series, hosted by Jackson Bunting Title: Synthetic IV Estimation in Panels, Abstract: We propose a Synthetic Instrumental Variables (SIV) estimator for panel data that combines the strengths of instrumental variables and synthetic controls to address unmeasured confounding. We derive conditions under which SIV is consistent and asymptotically normal, even when the standard IV estimator is not. Motivated by the finite sample properties of our estimator, we introduce an ensemble estimator that simultaneously addresses multiple sources of bias and provide a permutation-based inference procedure. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our methods through a calibrated simulation exercise, two shift-share empirical applications, and an application in digital economics that includes both observational data and data from a randomized control trial. In our primary empirical application, we examine the impact of the Syrian refugee crisis on Turkish labor markets. Here, the SIV estimator… Event interval: Single day event.

Seminar: Sudipta Sarangi (Virginia Tech)

Part of the Microeconomics Seminar Series, Hosted by Xu Tan Title: Influence and Counter-influence in Networks Abstract: We study competition for agents' votes between an influencer, who shapes interaction networks and influences agents, and a counter-influencer, who counter-influences at a cost. Agents’ votes depend on both the influence of the two players and the opinions of their neighboring agents. If the influencer has the better technology, the equilibrium networks become more centralized; if the counter-influencer has the better technology, they become decentralized. We also study situations where random links are added to the influencer’s network. Extensions include allowing multiple interaction periods before voting and requiring only a majority for the influencer to win. In both extensions, the influencer needs fewer resources to win. We use all of these extensions to demonstrate that our model is sufficiently flexible to accommodate all the key drivers of influence competition and can be adapted… Event interval: Single day event.

Seminar: Jeffrey Linn (Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia)

Part of the Macroeconomics and International Economics Seminars Series, Hosted by Brian Greaney Title: Spreading Out Across Expanding Idea Space Abstract: This paper investigates how the expanding frontier of knowledge reshapes innovation. If the space of possible inventions grows as knowledge accumulates, inventors could work on increasingly different things, facing less direct competition. However, a growing spread between an invention and its applications could force greater investment in every invention — with implications for whether collective research effort translates into growth. We find that US inventions have indeed become increasingly dissimilar over nearly two centuries (1836–2023), corroborated by 150 years of declining patent interference rates. Documenting this spreading-out requires measuring similarity correctly, as standard text approaches yield the opposite conclusion. Our validation framework, the first systematic comparison for patent text, identifies which representations are accurate… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Savery Hall (SAV).

Seminar: Xuetao Shi (Sydney)

Part of the Econometrics Seminar Series, Hosted by Yanqin Fan Title: Partial Identification in Moment Models with Incomplete Data--A Conditional Optimal Transport Approach   Abstract: In this paper, we develop a unified approach to study partial identification of a finite-dimensional parameter defined by a general moment model with incomplete data. We establish a novel characterization of the identified set for the true parameter in terms of a continuum of inequalities defined by conditional optimal transport. For the special case of an affine moment model, we show that the identified set is convex and that its support function can be easily computed by solving a conditional optimal transport problem. For parameters that may not satisfy the moment model, we propose a two-step procedure to construct its identified set. Finally, we demonstrate the generality and effectiveness of our approach through several running examples.   Here is the link of the paper:   https://arxiv.org/abs/2503.16098v2.

Seminar: Treb Allen (Dartmouth)

Part of the Macroeconomics and International Economics Seminars Series, Hosted by Brian Greaney Title: The Economic Geography of American Slavery Abstract: What would the antebellum American economy have looked like without slavery? Using new micro-data on the U.S. economy in 1860, we document that where free and enslaved workers live and how much they earn correlates strongly—but differently—with geographic proxies for agricultural productivity, disease, and ease of slave escape. To explain these patterns, we build a quantitative spatial model of slavery, where slaveholders coerce enslaved workers into supplying more labor, capture the proceeds of their labor, and assign them to sectors and occupations that maximize owner profits rather than worker welfare. Combining theory and data, we then quantify how dismantling the institution of slavery affected the spatial economy. We find that the economic impacts of emancipation are substantial, generating welfare gains for the enslaved of roughly 1,200%, while… Event interval: Single day event.

Seminar: Matt Jackson (Stanford)

Part of the Microeconomics Seminar Series, Hosted by Xu Tan Title: AI Behavioral Science: Using Games to Study AI and AI to Study Human Behavior Abstract: By varying prompts to a large language model, we can elicit the range of human behaviors in a variety of different scenarios in classic economic games. By analyzing which prompts elicit which behaviors, we can categorize and compare different strategic situations, which can also help provide insight into what different economic scenarios induce people to think about, and how complex human behavior is. We discuss how this provides a step towards a non-standard method of inferring (deciphering) the motivations and complexity behind human  behaviors. We also show how this deciphering process can be used to categorize differences in the behavioral tendencies of different populations.

Seminar: Akhil Vohra (University of Exeter)

Part of the Microeconomics Seminar Series, hosted by Xu Tan Title: Matching with Costly Interviews Abstract: In many matching markets, matches are formed after costly interviews. We develop a model of worker-firm matching that incorporates this feature, and examine the trade-offs between a centralized matching system and a decentralized one, where matches can occur at any time. Centralized matching with a common offer date leads to coordination issues in the interview stage. Each firm must incorporate the externality imposed by the interview decisions of the firms ranked above it when deciding on its interview list. As a result, low-ranked firms often fail to interview some candidates that ex-ante have high match quality. In a decentralized setting with exploding offers, the set of candidates who receive interviews differs, but the welfare generated is weakly greater than in the centralized setting. Total welfare is highest with a system that ensures firms interview and match in sequence, clearing the… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Savery Hall (SAV). Campus room: SAV 410.
