    • Behavioral implications of shortlisting procedures 

      TYSON, CJ (Springer Berlin-Heidelberg, 2013-10)
      We consider two-stage “shortlisting procedures” in which the menu of alternatives is first pruned by some process or criterion and then a binary relation is maximized. Given a particular first-stage process, our main result ...
    • Modeling M-phase control in Xenopus oocyte extracts: the surveillance mechanism for unreplicated DNA 

      TYSON, CJ; Marlovits, G; Novak, B; Tyson, JJ (1998-05)
      Alternating phases of DNA synthesis and mitosis, during the first 12 cell divisions of frog embryos, are driven by autonomous cytoplasmic oscillations of M-phase promoting factor (MPF). Cell-free extracts of frog eggs ...
    • Preference symmetries, partial differential equations, and functional forms for utility 

      TYSON, CJ (Elsevier/Science Direct, 2013)
      A discrete symmetry of a preference relation is a mapping from the domain of choice to itself under which preference comparisons are invariant; a continuous symmetry is a one-parameter family of such transformations that ...
    • Rationalizability of menu preferences 

      TYSON, CJ (Springer Verlag, 2018-05-18)
      The class of preferences over opportunity sets ("menus") rationalizable by underlying preferences over the alternatives is characterized for the general case in which the dataset is unrestricted. In particular, both the ...
    • Satisficing behavior with a secondary criterion 

      TYSON, CJ (2015-03)
      Using the techniques of revealed preference analysis, we study a two-stage model of choice behavior. In the first stage, the decision maker maximizes a menu-dependent binary relation encoding preferences that are imperfectly ...
