Numerical modular symbols for elliptic curves (2017)
Journal Article
Wuthrich, C. (2018). Numerical modular symbols for elliptic curves. Mathematics of Computation, 87(313), 2393-2423. https://doi.org/10.1090/mcom/3274

We present a detailed analysis of how to implement the computation of modular symbols for a given elliptic curve by using numerical approximations. This method turns out to be more effcient than current implementations as the conductor of the curve i... Read More about Numerical modular symbols for elliptic curves.

Is emission intensity or output U-shaped in the strictness of environmental policy? (2017)
Journal Article
Dijkstra, B. R., & Gil-Moltó, M. J. (in press). Is emission intensity or output U-shaped in the strictness of environmental policy?. Journal of Public Economic Theory, https://doi.org/10.1111/jpet.12277

We show that, in a range of market conditions, an ever stricter environmental policy does not always lead to ever cleaner production methods and ever lower production of polluting goods. We consider an integrated technology, where firms can reduce th... Read More about Is emission intensity or output U-shaped in the strictness of environmental policy?.
