Excited to have my first paper appearing soon in REStud - five years in the making! Paul Milgrom and I show how to extend Walrasian mechanisms to nonconvex markets - with only one additional parameter needed to assure existence.

Also Paul’s first REStud paper, if you can believe it!

The Review of Economic Studies (REStud) @reveconstudies.bsky.social · Aug 4
In their paper, recently accepted to #REStud, Milgrom & Watt @MitchLWatt introduce “Walrasian markup mechanisms”—feasible, nearly efficient, and nearly incentive compatible mechanisms for nonconvex markets using linear prices.

I’m on the #EconJobMarket, and my tremendous co-author @ziyangkang.bsky.social has shared an excellent summary of my #JMP about subsidies and redistribution and our companion paper both written over a (very busy!) summer. Check out the thread (and the far-too-generous things he says about me!) here

1/ My co-author @mitchwatt.bsky.social is on the #EconJobMarket this year.

Mitch is an applied theorist interested in market design, IO, and public policy.

I happen to know his #JMP and its companion paper very well. 😇
