R&D Policy in Economies with Endogenous Growth and Non-Renewable Resources
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2007-10)The aim of this paper is to analyze how active R&D policies affect the growth rate of an economy with endogenous growth and non-renewable resources. We know from Scholz and Ziemens (1999) and Groth (2006) that in infinitely ... -
Rationing Rules and Stable Coalition Structures
(Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2016-10-05)We consider a coalition formation model in which agents have the possibility of forming part of several coalitions but are limited to participate in only one of them. Coalitions of agents produce outputs to be distributed ... -
Reconciling yield stability with international fisheries agencies precautionary preferences: the role of non constant discount factors in age structured models
(2015)International fisheries agencies recommend exploitation paths that satisfy two features. First, for precautionary reasons exploitation paths should avoid high fishing mortality in those fisheries where the biomass is ... -
Reconstructing Chi-squared Intra-table Distances in the Analysis of a Set of Contingency Tables
(2007-07)To study similarities among the set of rows -and columns- of a contingency table, Correspondence Analysis uses chi-squared distances between row profiles -and column profiles- of that table. This article presents a factor ... -
Reference Points and Optimal Management in Stochastic Age-Structured Fisheries Models
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2009-07)The purpose of this article is to characterize dynamic optimal harvesting trajectories that maximize discounted utility assuming an age-structured population model, in the same line as Tahvonen (2009). The main novelty of ... -
Reference Points Based on Dynamic Optimisation: A Versatil Algorithm for Mixed Fishery Management with Bio-economic Agestructured Models
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2012)Single-species management objectives may not be consistent within mixed fisheries. They may lead species to unsafe situations, promote discarding of over-quota and/or misreporting of catches. We provide an algorithm for ... -
Reform of Spain's profesional services market: Implementation of the EU Services Directive
(FUNCAS, 2014-07)The implementation of the European Commission Services Directive initiated the modernization process of services markets within the European Union. The objective was to guarantee the creation of a single market by ensuring ... -
Relocation and Investment in R&D by Firms
(2011)The literature on foreign direct investment has analyzed firms’ location decisions when they invest in R&D to reduce production costs. Such firms may set up new plants in other developed countries while maintaining their ... -
Replicator Dynamics and Evolutionary Stable Strategies in Heterogeneous Games
(2011-12)We generalise and extend the work of Iñarra and Laruelle (2011) by studying two person symmetric evolutionary games with two strategies, a heterogenous population with two possible types of individuals and incomplete ... -
Resale in Auctions with Financial Constraints
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2012)This paper analyzes auctions where bidders face nancial constraints that may force them to resell part of the property of the good (or subcontract part of a project) at a resale market. First we show that the ine¢ cient ... -
Risk management for mathematical optimization under uncertainty
(2016)We present a general multistage stochastic mixed 0-1 problem where the uncertainty appears everywhere in the objective function, constraints matrix and right-hand-side. The uncertainty is represented by a scenario tree ... -
Roaming in the Mobile Internet: when coverage sharing agreements call for regulation
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2003-06)We examine competition in Mobile Internet services, when operators bargain over the coverage sharing and their reciprocal roaming charge. Results show that in equilibrium operators cover the overall territory entirely and ... -
Royalty Licensing
(2009-09)A patent provides its holder the monopolist´s right to sell licenses that allow the use of new technology. Empirically, most of the patent licensing agreements that are observed include royalties, in particular per unit ... -
Sampling and learning the Mallows and Generalized Mallows models under the Cayley distance
(2014-01-22)[EN]The Mallows and Generalized Mallows models are compact yet powerful and natural ways of representing a probability distribution over the space of permutations. In this paper we deal with the problems of sampling and ... -
Sampling and learning the Mallows and Weighted Mallows models under the Hamming distance
(2014-01-22)[EN]In this paper we deal with distributions over permutation spaces. The Mallows model is the mode l in use. The associated distance for permutations is the Hamming distance. -
Sampling and learning the Mallows model under the Ulam distance
(2014-01-22)[EN]In this paper we deal with probability distributions over permutation spaces. The Probability model in use is the Mallows model. The distance for permutations that the model uses in the Ulam distance. -
Scenario Cluster Lagrangian Decomposition in two stage stochastic mixed 0-1 optimization
(2012)In this paper we introduce four scenario Cluster based Lagrangian Decomposition (CLD) procedures for obtaining strong lower bounds to the (optimal) solution value of two-stage stochastic mixed 0-1 problems. At each iteration ... -
Seasonal Stability Tests in gretl. An Application to International Tourism Data
(2013-09)The seasonal stability tests of Canova & Hansen (1995) (CH) provide a method complementary to that of Hylleberg et al. (1990) for testing for seasonal unit roots. But the distribution of the CH tests are unknown in small ... -
Second-best tax policy in a growing economy with externalities
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2006-10)This paper investigates the exploitation of environmental resources in a growing economy within a second-best scal policy framework. Agents derive utility from two types of consumption goods one which relies on an ... -
Selecting random parameters in discrete choice experiment for environmental valuation: A simulation experiment
(2010)This paper examines the various tests commonly used to select random parameters in choice modelling. The most common procedures for selecting random parameters are: the Lagrange Multiplier test as proposed by McFadden and ...
