      A Behavioral Foundation for Models of Evolutionary Drift 

      Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón ORCID (2005-07)
      Binmore and Samuelson (1999) have shown that perturbations (drift) are crucial to study the stability properties of Nash equilibria. We contribute to this literature by providing a behavioural foundation for models of ...

      A common axiom for classical division rules for claims problems 

      Albizuri Irigoyen, Miren Iosune; Santos López, Juan Carlos ORCID (Departamento de Economía Aplicada IV, UPV/EHU, 2015)
      In this paper we introduce a new axiom, denoted claims separability, that is satisfied by several classical division rules defined for claims problems. We characterize axiomatically the entire family of division rules that ...

      A detailed investigation of classification methods for vowel speech imagery recognition 

      Santana Hermida, Roberto ORCID (2013-12-18)
      Accurate and fast decoding of speech imagery from electroencephalographic (EEG) data could serve as a basis for a new generation of brain computer interfaces (BCIs), more portable and easier to use. However, decoding of ...

      A factor model of seasonality in stock returns 

      Gardeazabal, Javier ORCID; Regúlez Castillo, Marta ORCID (University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2002)
      Most empirical evidence on stock market seasonality is based on the Dummy Variable Approach (DVA). Typically, the DVA leaves too much variability of stock returns unexplained and inference usually leads to weak or null ...

      A Fundamental Contradiction in Keynes' Conception of Income 

      Ormazabal Sánchez, Kepa Mirena ORCID (2003-02)
      I contend that Keynes provides two contradictory definitions of aggregate income. According to the first definition, which is the dominant in Keynes as well as the standard in current Macroeconomics, the full value of ...

      A Fundamental Contradiction in Standard Rent Theory: A Case Study on Varian's "Intermediate Microeconomics" 

      Ormazabal Sánchez, Kepa Mirena ORCID (2004)
      In this paper, I examine Varian’s treatment of rent in his textbook on Microeconomics. I argue that he holds contradictory conceptions: sometimes rent is defined as surplus over cost whereas sometimes it is defined as cost, ...

      A Marginalist Model of Network Formation 

      Olaizola Ortega, María Norma ORCID; Valenciano Llovera, Federico ORCID (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2016-08-18)
      We develop a network-formation model where the quality of a link depends on the amount invested in it and is determined by a link-formation "technology" , an increasing strictly concave function which is the only exogenous ...

      A Measure of Gender Wage Discrimination at Quantiles 

      Gardeazabal, Javier ORCID; Ugidos Olazabal, Arantza ORCID (University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2002)
      The literature provides several scalar measures of gender wage discrimination that cannot identify whether discrimination is greater among high earners or among low earners. Furthermore, two populations may exhibit the ...

      A methodology for the semiautomatic annotation of EPEC-RolSem, a basque corpus labeled at predicative level following the PropBank-Verb Net model 

      Aldezabal Roteta, Izaskun ORCID; Aranzabe Urruzola, María Jesús ORCID; Díaz de Ilarraza Sánchez, Arantza ORCID; Estarrona Ibarloza, Ainara (2013)
      In this article we describe the methodology developed for the semiautomatic annotation of EPEC-RolSem, a Basque corpus labeled at predicate level following the PropBank-VerbNet model. The methodology presented is the product ...

      A Model of Evolutionay Drift 

      Uriarte Ayo, José Ramón ORCID (2003-02)
      Drift appears to be crucial to study the stability properties of Nash equilibria in a component specifying different out-of-equilibrium behaviour. We propose a new microeconomic model of drift to be added to the learning ...

      A monotonic core concept for convex games: The SD-prenucleolus 

      Arin Aguirre, Francisco Javier; Katsev, Ilya (Departamento de Fundamentos dle Análisis Económico I, 2013-02-26)
      We prove that the SD-prenucleolus satisfies monotonicity in the class of convex games. The SD-prenucleolus is thus the only known continuous core concept that satisfies monotonicity for convex games. We also prove that for ...

      A new look at Marx's refutation of Ricardo's refutation of the labor theory of value 

      Ormazabal Sánchez, Kepa Mirena ORCID (2011)
      In this paper, I would like to bring back to light the forgotten critique of Marx to the widely accepted view that Ricardo succeeded in refuting the universal validity of the labor theory of value in "Principles", chapter ...

      A new solution for the roommate problem: The Q-stable matchings 

      Biró, Péter; Iñarra García, María Elena ORCID; Molis Bañales, Elena (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, 2014-09-16)
      The aim of this paper is to propose a new solution for the roommate problem with strict preferences. We introduce the solution of maximum irreversibility and consider almost stable matchings (Abraham et al. [2])and maximum ...

      A Non-Parametric Dimension Test of the Term Structure 

      Gil Bazo, Javier; Rubio Irigoyen, Gonzalo (University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2002)
      In an economy with multiple sources of risk, the short-term interest rate does not capture all the information that determines the conditional distribution of bond yields. This is also true for path-dependent term structure ...

      A noncooperative view on two consistent aiport cost sharing rules 

      Arin Aguirre, Francisco Javier; Iñarra García, María Elena ORCID; Luquin, Paloma (2006-07)
      This paper provides a noncooperative understanding of the nucleolus and the egalitarian allocation for airport cost problems. We find that every Nash equilibrium of the noncooperative game has the nucleolus as outcome while ...

      A note on bargaining power and managerial delegation in multimarket oligopolies 

      Ciarreta Antuñano, Aitor ORCID; García Enríquez, Javier ORCID; Gutiérrez Hita, Carlos (University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2012-11)
      In a two-stage delegation game model with Nash bargaining between a manager and an owner, an equivalence result is found between this game and Fershtman and Judd's strategic delegation game (Fershtman and Judd, 1987). ...
