Bilateral assignment and optimal desegregation
We develop a model of bilateral assignment under capacity constraints, under the relevant version of the celebrated Consistency axiom: every submatrix of an optimal assignment matrix must be optimal as well. When the unconstrained proportional assignment is the ideal assignment, the only consistent approximation under our constraints minimizes the entropy of the assignment matrix; exactly like ...
متن کاملAdministrative rationing and multiple equilibria
In this paper, we introduce non-interest profit/loss sharing (PLS) banks into a three-period overlapping generations model. Two types, (low- and high quality) investments are assumed and capital accumulation and level of output in the steady state is considered. Then, administrative rationing is introduced to the model. It is shown that the level of capital accumulation and output in equilibriu...
متن کاملEssays on Residential Desegregation
Many ethnically diverse countries have policies that encourage integration across ethnic groups. This dissertation investigates the impact and welfare implications of a residential desegregation policy in Singapore, the ethnic housing quotas. I employ both reduced form and structural form methods. In Chapter 1, I use regression discontinuity analysis to estimate the impact of the quota on price...
متن کاملEducation Desegregation and Cognitive Change in African American Older Adults.
OBJECTIVES The present study examined the relationship between desegregated schooling and cognitive change in a sample of 420 community-dwelling African American elders (mean age = 68.6; SD = 9.1). METHOD Participants were recruited for the Baltimore Study of Black Aging - Patterns of Cognitive Aging. Cognitive measures from six domains of function were administered at baseline and follow-up ...
متن کاملAIDS and Drug Rationing
Financial shortage in resource-limited and poor countries restricts treatment in HIV-infected patients especially in poor countries. Higher HIV prevalence in poorer countries makes drug rationing a real concern. Different countries solve the problem with different methods regarding WHO guidelines, but fairness and equity should be a major consideration in drug rationing. This paper is aimed at ...
