About
David Miller is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Michigan. He received his Ph.D. from Stanford University in 2004, and was previously an Assistant Professor at the University of California, San Diego.
His main research area is repeated game models of cooperative behavior, with a particular focus on methods for narrowing the set of relevant equilibria, motivated by a concern for realism. His research has explored how the potential for renegotiation and disagreement influences the design of optimal self-enforcing contracts, how social networks help communities support cooperative behavior, and how asymmetric information constrains the extent to which cartels can robustly collude.
