On the equivalence between labor and consumption taxation
This article studies the equivalence between labor and consumption taxes in a stochastic context, where the government can undertake an active portfolio management strategy by investing in both risk-free and risky assets. Using a two-period model we have shown that such taxes let consumers make the same decisions and can finance the same amount of government spending in each period.consumption and labor taxation, equivalence, risk.

Comment on: "Analytical approximations for the collapse of an empty spherical bubble"
We analyze the Rayleigh equation for the collapse of an empty bubble and
provide an explanation for some recent analytical approximations to the model.
We derive the form of the singularity at the second boundary point and discuss
the convergence of the approximants. We also give a rigorous proof of the
asymptotic behavior of the coefficients of the power series that are the basis
for the approximate expressions
On feedback stabilization of linear switched systems via switching signal control
Motivated by recent applications in control theory, we study the feedback
stabilizability of switched systems, where one is allowed to chose the
switching signal as a function of in order to stabilize the system. We
propose new algorithms and analyze several mathematical features of the problem
which were unnoticed up to now, to our knowledge. We prove complexity results,
(in-)equivalence between various notions of stabilizability, existence of
Lyapunov functions, and provide a case study for a paradigmatic example
introduced by Stanford and Urbano.Comment: 19 pages, 3 figure
