Current projects: Asymptotics for partially identified models, Testing shape restrictions on nonparametric regressions, Competition in oligopolistic markets Arie Beresteanu came to Duke in the Fall, 2001, after receiving his Ph.D from Northwestern University. He received his B.S. in Mathematics (1994) and M.A. in Economics (1997) from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. His specialty is cross-sectional econometrics and, in particular, estimation under shape restrictions and partially identified models. He is interested both in theoretical issues and in applying the theory to fields like industrial organization and public finance. Professor Beresteanu's current research focuses on (1) estimation and testing for partially identified models (2) imposing restrictions coming from economic theory on nonparametric estimators and on testing. Professor Beresteanu's interests in applied Industrial Organization include the telecommunications industry and estimating dynamic models of entry and exit for retail industries.
