内容简介：

We fully characterize the possible outcomes of exploration and stopping: all state-time distributions corresponding to stopping some martingale process with bounded variation. Utilizing this characterization, we provide a general methodology for solving an optimal exploration-stopping problem where the stopping utility depends on state and time arbitrarily. We reveal the close relation between the pattern of exploration and time preference and apply it to study competitive exploration contests.
