| Research Abstract |
We have made significant contributions to the development of the search-theoretic approach to monetary economics, labor economics, and macroeconomics. We have regularly held the Search Theory Workshop (STW) to provide opportunities for leading researchers to develop their search-theoretic models. The research outputs by the organizers of STW are only a part of the contributions of the entire project.
Imai considers the interaction between the frictionless new good market and the frictional resale market, and explores the welfare implication of search friction in the resale market and the role of middlemen. In the standard theory, traders meet randomly and prices are determined through negotiations, or sellers deirect search by posting prices to attract buyers. Kudo develops a model in which traders meet randomly but prices are posted. He also make tentative models to integrate search theory with international trade to consider the effects of trade liberalization on employment.
