Willemien Kets is a Professor of Game Theory at the Mathematical Institute within Utrecht University's Faculty of Science. He holds concurrent prestigious appointments as a CEPR Research Fellow, External Professor at the Santa Fe Institute, and SAET Economic Theory Fellow. His academic profile centers on rigorous mathematical approaches to strategic interaction and decision-making under uncertainty. His research spans game theory and mathematical economics with specialized focus on strategic uncertainty, cultural diversity in economic behavior, coordination mechanisms, belief hierarchies, homophily in social networks, and ambiguity in communication. Kets investigates how individuals form beliefs and interact strategically in complex environments, bridging economics with sociology and network science to develop formal models of institutional design and social phenomena. His methodological approach combines axiomatic reasoning, equilibrium analysis, and experimental validation. Publication trends reveal consistent contributions to high-impact journals since 2001, with recent work emphasizing coordination games, cultural transmission, and robustness of equilibria. Key themes include strategic timing in dynamic games, consensus formation under ambiguous communication, and network effects on inequality. His research demonstrates exceptional continuity in advancing foundational game theory while addressing contemporary social and economic questions. Scientific recognition includes: CEPR Research Fellowship for contributions to economic theory External Professorship at Santa Fe Institute for complexity science research SAET Economic Theory Fellowship for distinguished scholarship Ray Reiter Best Paper Award for groundbreaking work on ambiguous language at KR2012 While the source material indicates active research leadership through recent publications and institutional affiliations, no specific information about student supervision, grant funding, or laboratory teams was provided. His work maintains strong collaborative patterns with scholars including Alvaro Sandroni, Wouter Kager, and Joe Halpern across multiple publications.

• Microeconomic Theory
• Contract Theory
• Mechanism Design
• +۲ مورد دیگر

Ashwin Kambhampati serves as Assistant Professor of Economics at the United States Naval Academy, where he has taught three course sections per semester since joining in Fall 2021. His teaching portfolio includes Game Theory (SE450), Industrial Organization (FE461), Mathematical Methods for Economics (SM275), and a Capstone Research Seminar in Microeconomic Theory (SE475). Dr. Kambhampati earned his PhD from the University of Pennsylvania in 2021, where he previously taught Intermediate Microeconomics (ECON101). His academic journey reflects a strong foundation in theoretical economics with practical teaching experience at both undergraduate and military academy levels. Specializing in microeconomic theory, Dr. Kambhampati's research examines contract theory, mechanism design, matching, and games of incomplete information. His innovative work investigates how economic mechanisms perform under uncertainty and information asymmetry, developing frameworks for optimal contract design when principals lack complete knowledge about agents' capabilities. Through rigorous game-theoretic modeling, he analyzes strategic interactions in principal-agent relationships and organizational structures, with particular focus on how randomization can enhance robustness in economic mechanisms and how information diversity affects team formation within organizations. Dr. Kambhampati's publication record demonstrates significant scholarly impact, with papers appearing in top-tier journals including Theoretical Economics, Journal of Economic Theory, RAND Journal of Economics, and Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization. His research shows a clear progression toward increasingly complex applications of robust mechanism design, with recent work examining monopoly screening efficiency, linear contract robustness, and informationally diverse team formation. His scholarly contributions have gained recognition through revise-and-resubmit decisions at the American Economic Review and third-round revisions at Games and Economic Behavior. Dr. Kambhampati has presented his research at major conferences including the 2024 North American Winter Meeting of the Econometric Society in San Antonio, Texas. Dr. Kambhampati actively mentors students, supervising Ryan Hoffman's AY2023 honors project that resulted in the published paper 'Pay Equality Among Heterogeneous Agents' in Economics Letters. His current research agenda includes three significant projects: 'Service Assignment at the United States Naval Academy' (with Chad Redmer and Naomi Utgoff), 'A Theory of Firm Boundaries with Long-Run Incentives and At-Will Employment' (with Gorkem Bostanci), and 'Search Committees with Disparate Costs' (with Nageeb Ali and Aislinn Bohren), indicating a robust research program with both theoretical and practical applications.
