On Extrapolation of Treatment Effects in Multiple-Cutoff Regression Discontinuity Designs
Regression discontinuity (RD) designs typically identify the treatment effect at a single cutoff point, which may not always be the primary interest. When and how, then, can we learn about treatment effects away from the cutoff? This paper addresses this question within a multiple-cutoff RD framework. We begin by examining the plausibility of the constant bias assumption proposed by Cattaneo, Keele, Titiunik, and Vazquez-Bare (2021) through the lens of rational decision-making behavior. We argu…

'Fahrrad' #FotoVorschlag "Bicycle"
Ahh that motto immediately reminded me of our bike&hike to the Schachen above #GarmischPartenkirchen in 2021.
We were pretty done when we reached our destination but it was a great ride. It would be so cool if I…

Bounds on Functionality and Symmetric Difference -- Two Intriguing Graph Parameters
Functionality ($\mathrm{fun}$) is a graph parameter that generalizes graph degeneracy defined by Alecu et al. [JCTB, 2021]. They research the relation of functionality to many other graphs parameters (tree-width, clique-width, VC-dimension, etc.). Extending their research, we completely characterize the functionality of random graph $G(n,p)$ for all possible $p$. We provide matching (up to a constant factor) lower and upper bound for a large range of $p$. It follows from our bounds for $G(n,p)$…

Assessing innovation in the nascent value chains of climate-mitigating technologies
Accelerating climate-tech innovation in the formative stage of the technology life cycle is crucial to meeting climate policy goals. During this period, competing technologies are often undergoing major technical improvements within a nascent value chain. We analyze this formative stage for 14 climate-tech sectors using a dataset of 4,172 North American firms receiving 12,929 early-stage private investments between 2006 and 2021. Investments in these firms reveal that commercialization occurs i…
