Research Interests: Dr. Thomas’s work examines how policy interventions and market structures influence firm behavior. His studies on carve-out markets and airline alliances highlight the interplay between regulatory frameworks and economic outcomes, particularly in competitive environments. His research bridges theoretical economic models with empirical analyses of real-world market dynamics.
Publications Trends: His two major publications (2015–2016) emphasize policy impact assessments and industry-specific market behaviors. The first explores carve-out markets’ regulatory effects, while the second analyzes how international airline alliances and domestic mergers affect product quality under antitrust immunity.
