Where science and spirituality enter the practical domain
A research area for welfare economics, financial economics, and related questions at the intersection of values, institutions, incentives, and human flourishing.
This note proposes a partial differential equation for individual personal finance decisions and shows how aggregating across many such individual PDEs recovers the classical Black-Scholes equation of option pricing.
This note argues that sustained investment in science and engineering education and research is a more durable response to trade shocks like tariffs than short-term protectionist measures.
This note connects the information-theoretic notion of structured atypical sets to questions in information economics, exploring how deviations from typical outcomes carry economic value.
This note develops a utility-theoretic version of the asymptotic equipartition property from information theory, and applies the resulting geometric coding perspective to the analysis of risk.
This note reflects on entropy as an economic good in its own right, considering what it means for order, disorder, and information to be produced, exchanged, and valued.
Economics is included as a practical research area for studying welfare, finance, institutions, and values-based decision making without separating material systems from ethical and contemplative questions.
