Selman Erol is an Assistant Professor at the Tepper School of Business, Carnegie Mellon University, and Director of Undergraduate Research in Economics. His research focuses on networks in economics and finance, particularly contagion, resilience, and financial stability. He explores how regulatory interventions and network structures impact systemic risk and welfare.
Key research areas include financial networks, graphons (continuous network models), and regulatory policies. Notable awards include the Elsevier Best Paper on Financial Institutions (2020) and a Job Market Paper Runner-up prize (2016). His work spans historical analyses of the Federal Reserve’s impact on shadow banking to modern challenges like cyber-risk in financial platforms.
Publications highlight interdisciplinary approaches, blending economics, mathematics, and policy analysis. Recent contributions address network hazard (where interventions paradoxically increase risk) and the interplay between civil liberties, social structure, and surveillance.
