A Distributionally Robust Random Utility Model

Kavli Affiliate: David Muller | First 5 Authors: David Müller, Emerson Melo, Ruben Schlotter, , | Summary: This paper introduces the distributionally robust random utility model (DRO-RUM), which allows the preference shock (unobserved heterogeneity) distribution to be misspecified or unknown. We make three contributions using tools from the literature on robust optimization. First, by exploiting […]

Aharonov-Bohm magnetism in open Fermi surfaces

Kavli Affiliate: Anton Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: Kostas Vilkelis, Ady Stern, Anton Akhmerov, , | Summary: Orbital diamagnetism requires closed orbits according to the Liftshiftz-Kosevich theory. Therefore, one might expect that open Fermi surfaces do not have a diamagnetic response. Contrary to this expectation, we show that open orbits in finite systems do contribute […]

Flux-Tunable Hybridization in a Double Quantum Dot Interferometer

Kavli Affiliate: Srijit Goswami | First 5 Authors: Christian G. Prosko, Ivan Kulesh, Michael Chan, Lin Han, Di Xiao | Summary: A single electron shared between two levels threaded by a magnetic flux is an irreducibly simple quantum system in which interference is predicted to occur. We demonstrate tuning of the tunnel coupling between two […]
