Prospecting a Possible Quadratic Wormhole Between Quantum Mechanics and Plurality
Michal Fabinger, Michael H. Freedman, E. Glen Weyl
We illustrate some formal symmetries between Quadratic Funding (Buterin et al., 2019), a mechanism for the (approximately optimal) determination of public good funding levels, and…
Multi-Dimensional Pass-Through and Welfare Measures under Imperfect Competition
Takanori Adachi, Michal Fabinger
This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of welfare measures when oligopolistic firms face multiple policy interventions and external changes under general forms of market dema…
Functional Forms for Tractable Economic Models and the Cost Structure of International Trade
Michal Fabinger, E. Glen Weyl
We present functional forms allowing a broader range of analytic solutions to common economic equilibrium problems. These can increase the realism of pen-and-paper solutions or spe…
D-Sitter Space: Causal Structure, Thermodynamics, and Entropy
Michal Fabinger, Eva Silverstein
We study the entropy of concrete de Sitter flux compactifications and deformations of them containing D-brane domain walls. We determine the relevant causal and thermodynamic prope…
Stringy Resolutions of Null Singularities
Michal Fabinger, Simeon Hellerman
We study string theory in supersymmetric time-dependent backgrounds. In the framework of general relativity, supersymmetry for spacetimes without flux implies the existence of a co…
On Smooth Time-Dependent Orbifolds and Null Singularities
Michal Fabinger, John McGreevy
We study string theory on a non-singular time-dependent orbifold of flat space, known as the `null-brane'. The orbifold group, which involves only space-like identifications, is ob…
