Rediefining the Government-University Relationship using the Principal-Agent Theory
Government–university relationship has always been challenging. Many theories have emerged to explain this relationship. Among them, the principal-agent theory (PAT) has mainly developed in recent decades. This research aims to utilize PAT as a theoretical framework to redefine the government-university relationship to discover the insights agency theory can offer in this context. From the view...
متن کاملComputational principal agent problems
Collecting and processing large amounts of data is becoming increasingly crucial in our society. We model this task as evaluating a function f over a large vector x = (x1, . . . , xn), which is unknown, but drawn from a publicly known distribution X. In our model learning each component of the input x is costly, but computing the output f(x) has zero cost once x is known. We consider the proble...
متن کاملDynamic Principal-Agent Problems
We consider a continuous-time setting, in which the agent can control both the drift and the volatility of the underlying process. The principal can observe the agent’s action and can offer payment at a continuous rate, as well as a bulk payment at the end of the fixed time horizon. In examples, we show that if the principal and the agent have the same CRRA utility, or they both have (possibly ...
متن کاملDynamic Principal Agent Models∗
This paper contributes to the theoretical and numerical analysis of discrete time dynamic principal agent problems with continuous choice sets. We first provide a new and simplified proof for the recursive reformulation of the sequential dynamic principal agent relationship. Next we prove the existence of a unique solution for the principal’s value function, which solves the dynamic programming...
متن کاملThe principal-agent approach to testing experts
Recent literature on testing experts shows that it is difficult, and often impossible, to determine whether an expert knows the stochastic process that generates data. Despite this negative result, we show that often exist contracts that allow a decision maker to attain the first-best payoff in the following sense: in the case in which the expert knows the stochastic process, the decision maker...
