Limit Orders and Knightian Uncertainty
A range of empirical puzzles in finance has been explained as a consequence of traders being averse to ambiguity. Ambiguity averse traders can behave in financial portfolio problems in ways that cannot be rationalized as maximizing subjective expected utility. However, this paper shows that when traders have access to limit orders, all investment behavior of an ambiguity-averse decision-maker is observationally equivalent to the behavior of a subjective expected utility maximizer with the same risk preferences; ambiguity aversion has no additional explanatory power.

Arbitrage-free modeling under Knightian Uncertainty
We study the Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing for a general financial market under Knightian Uncertainty. We adopt a functional analytic approach which require neither specific assumptions on the class of priors $\ma…
Cursed Equilibria and Knightian Uncertainty in a Trading Game
We introduce a novel equilibrium concept that incorporates Knightian uncertainty into the cursed equilibrium (Eyster and Rabin, 2005). This concept is then applied to a two-player game in which agents can engage in trade…
Viability and Arbitrage under Knightian Uncertainty
We reconsider the microeconomic foundations of financial economics. Motivated by the importance of Knightian Uncertainty in markets, we present a model that does not carry any probabilistic structure ex ante, yet is base…
An ontological investigation of unimaginable events
We show that, under mild assumptions, some unimaginable events - which we refer to as Black Swan events - must necessarily occur. It follows as a corollary of our theorem that any computational model of decision-making u…
