This book begins with a review of basic results in optimal search for a stationary target. It then develops the theory of optimal search for a moving target, providing algorithms for computing optimal plans and examples of their use. Next it develops methods for computing optima…

Set-valued optimization is a vibrant and expanding branch of mathematics that deals with optimization problems where the objective map and/or the constraints maps are set-valued maps acting between certain spaces. Since set-valued maps subsumes single valued maps, set-valued opt…
Chapter 1: Using a novel combination of administrative and proprietary data from 2007 to 2011 on King County, WA (metro Seattle), I estimate the effect of owner-occupants' home equity on their probability of sale and, indirectly, mobility. I exploit plausibly exogenous variation…
