    • A general stochastic calculus approach to insider trading 

      Biagini, Francesca; Øksendal, Bernt (Discussion paper, Working paper, 2002-12)
      The purpose of this paper is to present a general stochastic calculus approach to insider trading. In a market driven by a standard Brownian motion B(t) on a filtered probability space (Ω, F, {F}t>0, P), by an insider we ...
    • Gibbard-Satterthwaite and an Arrovian Connection 

      Stensholt, Eivind (Discussion paper, Working paper, 2008-06)
      A very close link of G-S, the Gibbard-Satterthwaite theorem to Arrow’s "impossibility" theorem is shown. G-S is derived as a corollary: from a strategy-proof singleseat election method F is constructed an election method ...
    • Give and take in dictator games 

      Cappelen, Alexander Wright; Nielsen, Ulrik H.; Sørensen, Erik Øiolf; Tungodden, Bertil; Tyran, Jean-Robert (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      It has been shown that participants in the dictator game are less willing to give money to the other participant when their choice set also includes the option to take money. We examine whether this effect is due to the ...

    • The global minimum tax raises more revenues than you think, or much less 

      Janeba, Eckhard; Schjelderup, Guttorm (Discussion paper;6/22, Working paper, 2022-02-07)
      The OECD’s proposal for a global minimum tax (GMT) of 15% aims for a reversal of a decline of corporate tax rates. We study the revenue effects of the GMT by focusing on strategic tax setting effects. The direct effect ...
