Paul David Klemperer FBA (born 15 August 1956)〔(KLEMPERER, Prof. Paul David’ ), ''Who's Who 2014'', A & C Black, 2014; online edn, Oxford University Press, 2014〕 is an economist and the Edgeworth Professor of Economics at Oxford University. He is a member of the Klemperer family. Klemperer has an engineering degree from Cambridge University, and an MBA and an economics PhD from Stanford University. He was elected John Thomson Fellow and Tutor of St Catherine's College, Oxford in 1984, and a Professorial Fellow of Nuffield College, Oxford in 1995, when he became Edgeworth Professor in succession to Nobel prizewinner James Mirrlees. He works on industrial economics, competition policy, auction theory, and climate change economics and policy. He was a Member of the UK Competition Commission from 2001–5. He was elected a Fellow of the Econometric Society in 1994, a Fellow of the British Academy in 1999, and a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2005. == Academic contributions == His 1985 papers (with Jeremy Bulow and John Geanakoplos) developed the concept – and invented the terminology – of "strategic complements" that is now commonly used in game theory, industrial organisation and elsewhere.〔(Multimarket Oligopoly, JPE )〕 His PhD thesis, and independent work by Carl Christian von Weizsacker, began the study of consumer switching costs.〔(Switching Costs, QJE )〕 His paper on supply function equilibria (with Margaret Meyer) developed a standard model for the analysis of privatised electricity markets, and has been important in developing the theory of multiunit auctions.〔(Supply Functions, Econometrica )〕 His papers (many of which are co-authored with Jeremy Bulow) apply ideas from auction theory to other economic contexts, including finance and political economy.〔(Rational Frenzies and Crashes, JPE )〕〔(War of Attrition, AER )〕〔(Auctions versus negotiations, AER )〕 He has also invented new auction designs, including the "Product Mix Auction" that is now in regular use by the Bank of England (currently used monthly).〔(Product-Mix Auction, JEEA )〕 This new auction for differentiated products has similarities to a simultaneous multiple-round auction, but runs instantaneously, is said to be more robust against collusion, and allows sellers, as well as buyers, to specify how the quantities they trade will depend on the auction prices. His other innovations include the Anglo-Dutch auction,〔(Anglo-Dutch, EER )〕 and (with Aytek Erdil) Reference-Rule Pricing for package auctions.〔(Payment Rule, JEEA )〕 He has also worked (with Elizabeth Baldwin) on applying tropical geometry to economics and auctions, including the Product Mix auction. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paul Klemperer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
