OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Recovering Preferences from Finite Data (with Christopher P. Chambers, Federico Echenique and Nicolas Lambert)
This seminar will take place on Zoom
We study preferences recovered from finite choice experiments and provide sufficient conditions for convergence to a unique underlying “true” preference. Our conditions are weak, and therefore valid in a wide range of economic environments. We develop applications to expected utility theory, choice over consumption bundles, menu choice and intertemporal consumption. Our framework unifies the revealed preference tradition with models that allow for errors.
