Low-rank structures are common in modern data analysis, and they play essential roles in various applications. It is challenging to recover low-rank structures reliably and efficiently from corrupted…
Elicitation is the study of mechanisms which incentivize the truthful reporting of private
information from self-minded agents. In this talk I will present a general theory of elicitation
grounded in…
Motivated by today’s cloud computing capabilities in large server farms, we present a queueing
model where jobs are split into a number of pieces which are then randomly routed to…
Selective Inference is the problem of testing hypotheses that are chosen or suggested by the
data. Inference after variable selection in high-dimensional linear regression is a common
example of…
Natural hazards such as floods, heatwaves and windstorms can cause havoc for the people affected and typically result in huge financial losses. Drug-induced liver injury is a major public health and…

There are currently over 33,000 clinical trials being conducted worldwide according to the registry clinicaltrial.gov. These are very expensive, often costing tens or even hundreds of millions of…
Abstract:
A general discrete-time framework for deriving equilibrium prices of financial assets is
proposed. It allows for heterogenous agents, unspanned random endowments and convex
trading…
