报告摘要1：

When individuals’ peers exert significant influence over their treatment choice, ones need to account for the interference when using matching methods to estimate treatment effects. Accounting for peer influence in treatment choice, however, is not straightforward due to complex interactions in networks. We propose an easily implementable solution and using them to match individuals and compute treatment effects.

报告摘要2：

A major issue with cross-holdings is whether they facilitate collusion. It is well known that firms tend to be more collusive in static oligopolies. For repeated oligopolies, however, behavioral implications of cross-holdings depend on their impacts on both the incentive to defect from tacit collusive agreements and punishment that would follow after defection has taken place. We analyze repeated oligopolistic competition with product differentiation and cross-holdings.
