Current projects:
NB: As a rule of thumb, I only post links to "nearly submittable" papers. However, you can get an idea on some of the projects I am currently working on by having a look at the titles below. (I am mainly working on implementation issues at the moment. In particular, I am working towards a theory of behavior-proof mechanism design. Not much success so far, I must say!!)
Recent working papers are available on arxiv; older's ones are available on my SSRN page.
