Physical Decline Rates: Men Versus Women, Ray C. Fair

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

This paper uses world records by age in running, swimming, and rowing to estimate a biological frontier of decline rates for both men and women. Decline rates are assumed to be linear in percent terms up to a certain age and then quadratic after that, where the transition age is estimated. For both men and women decline rates are smallest for rowing, followed by swimming and then running.

Decline rates for women are roughly the same as those for men for the short swimming events. They are slightly larger for the longer swimming events and for the rowing events. They …

Efficiency And Distributional Effects Of Federal College Subsidies During The Great Depression, Gerald Jaynes, Alexander B. Kane

Discussion Papers

We conduct the first quantitative assessment of federal college subsidies during the 1930s. Overlapping generation households invest in children’s education to maximize multigenerational utility, and the government subsidizes college to maximize enrollment subject to a budget constraint and recipients satisfying ability and income qualifications. A modelling innovation assigns children educational ability through a random regression to the population mean correlated with father’s presumed ability ranking via his percentile in fathers’ earnings distribution. Simulating the theoretical model, the equilibrium that replicates actual education distributions estimates federal college subsidies increased graduation rates of the cohort of White Americans reaching college age during …

Managing Persuasion Robustly: The Optimality Of Quota Rules, Dirk Bergemann, Tan Gan, Yingkai Li

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

We study a sender-receiver model where the receiver can commit to a decision rule before the sender determines the information policy. The decision rule can depend on the signal structure and the signal realization that the sender adopts. This framework captures applications where a decision-maker (the receiver) solicit advice from an interested party (sender). In these applications, the receiver faces uncertainty regarding the sender’s preferences and the set of feasible signal structures. Consequently, we adopt a unified robust analysis framework that includes max-min utility, min-max regret, and min-max approximation ratio as special cases. We show that it is optimal for …

Leverage Cycle Theory Of Economic Crises And Booms, John Geanakoplos

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Traditionally, booms and busts have been attributed to investors' excessive or insufficient demand, irrational exuberance and panics, or fraud. The leverage cycle begins with the observation that much of demand is facilitated by borrowing, and that crashes often occur simultaneously with the withdrawal of lending.

Lenders are worried about default, and therefore attach credit terms like collateral or minimum credit ratings to their contracts. The credit surface, depicting interest rates as a function of the credit terms, emerges in leverage cycle equilibrium. Investors and lenders (and regulators) choose where on the credit surface they trade. The leverage cycle …

Deciphering The Habitability Of The Early Earth: Insights From The Coupled Evolution Of The Crust-Mantle-Atmosphere-Ocean System, Meng Guo

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

Life on Earth traces back to the planet's early geological eons, namely the late Hadean and early Archean. However, direct geological evidence from this period is scarce, necessitating reliance on understanding crust-mantle differentiation and the evolution of atmosphere and oceans to study early Earth habitability. Despite its importance, significant debate surrounds the specific characteristics of Earth's early environment. In this dissertation, we focus on deciphering the chemical and physical evolution of the coupled crust-mantle-atmosphere-ocean system throughout Earth's history, providing insights into continental formation, atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, and ocean pH—essential factors influencing the emergence and development of life on Earth. …

Harnessing Haystac For Hidden Photons And Advancing Rydberg Atom-Based Axion Detection, Sumita Ghosh

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

\textit{Dark matter} is the name that we give to the 85\% of matter in the universe that interacts via gravity but negligibly with any of the other known forces. One compelling model for dark matter is the \textit{axion}, as it simultaneously solves the existence of dark matter and the strong CP problem in QCD. Axions can interact with a strong magnetic field through the \textit{Primakoff effect}, wherein the axion can spontaneously convert into a photon in the presence of a strong magnetic field. The traditional experiment used for this purpose is called a \textit{haloscope}, which consists of the aforementioned strong …

New Developments In Sequential, Multicomponent C–H Functionalization, Daniel Solomon Brandes

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

Sequential, multicomponent C–H bond functionalization is a powerful approach for the rapid, modular generation of molecular complexity in a single reaction. The first chapter reviews existing literature in this area. The second and third chapters describe multicomponent carboamidations of bridged bicyclic alkenes and terminal alkenes, respectively, to provide pharmaceutically relevant α-branched amine products. The fourth chapter details in progress work for the synthesis of challenging β-amino quaternary centers from C−H bond substrates, internally-substituted dienes, and formyl imine surrogates. Finally, the fifth chapter presents a concise and general method for the synthesis of N-acylsulfenamides, which have application in the preparation of …

Greener Routes To Biomass Valorization: Lignin Upgrading Using Electrochemical Method, Fang Lin

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

Due to the concerns over the global environmental impact of fossil fuel use, the conversion of renewable biomass to fuels and useful chemicals has attracted increasing attention. Lignin has emerged as a promising candidate due to its unique aromatic backbone structure and its natural abundance coupled with its underutilization as a feedstock. The growing interest in lignin as a renewable feedstock for aromatic platform chemicals has led to increased research efforts into its valorization, particularly through controlled depolymerization into smaller aromatic building blocks. One of the most common bonds in lignin’s complex structure is the C-O bond, and these bonds …

Biopsychosocial Markers Of Social Adversity As Risk Factors For Mental Illness, Meghan Alexandra Collins

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

Stress and adversity are strong predictors of poor mental health outcomes among individuals at clinical high-risk for psychosis (CHR). Furthermore, atypical neurodevelopment during adolescence has been proposed as a biological mechanism that contributes to psychosis onset. Approximately 20% of youth who meet CHR criteria will go on to develop a psychotic disorder within two years. Thus, delineating the mechanisms linking adversity and neurodevelopment with conversion to psychosis is important for enhanced risk identification and early intervention. There is a lack of clarity in the existing literature regarding which types of adversity are most predictive of poor clinical outcomes among CHR, …

Going Urban: The Jewish Experience Of The Metropolis In Early 20th Century Literature, Ariel Yehudith Pridan

Yale Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Dissertations

This study delves into urban Jewish praxis and its impact on the production of urban space in three literary texts composed within the first four decades of the 20th century: the novella “Min HaMeitzar” [“Out of the Depths”] (1908) by Hebrew writer Yosef Haim Brenner, the novel Nokh alemen [“The End of Everything”] (1913) by Yiddish writer Dovid Bergelson, and the novel Hiob: Roman eines einfachen Mannes [“Job: The Story of a Simple Man”] (1930) by German-Jewish writer Joseph Roth. The literary readings presented in this study strive to elucidate the literary production of urban space as a means of …
