Quaternary dichotomous voting rules
(2010-01)
In this paper we provide a general model of "quaternary" dichotomous voting rules (QVRs), namely, voting rules for making collective dichotomous decisions (to accept or reject a proposal), based on vote profiles in which ...
Information, stability and dynamics in networks under institutional constraints
(2010-07)
In this paper we study the effects of institutional constraints on stability, efficiency and network formation. More precisely, an exogenous "societal cover" consisting of a collection of possibly overlapping subsets that ...
Unraveling Public Good Games: The Role of Priors
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2010-02)
This paper provides experimental evidence on how players predict end game effects in a linear public good game. Our regression analysis yields a measure of the relative importance of priors and signals on subjects\' beliefs ...
Strategic Interaction and Conventions
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2010-06)
The scope of the paper is the literature that employs coordination games to study social norms and conventions from the viewpoint of game theory and cognitive psychology. We claim that those two alternative approaches are ...
Discounting future pain: Effects on self-reported pain
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2010-07)
Empirical results are presented showing that people who acknowledge pain anticipation when expecting an injury experience higher sensitivity to pain (GREP, Robinson et al., 2001). The positive correlation between sensitivity ...
Semiparametric inference in correlated long memory signal plus noise models
(2010-04)
This paper proposes an extension of the log periodogram regression in perturbed long memory series that accounts for the added noise, also allowing for correlation between signal and noise, which represents a common situation ...
Lagrangean decomposition for large-scale two-stage stochastic mixed 0-1 problems
(2010-07)
In this paper we study solution methods for solving the dual problem corresponding to the Lagrangean Decomposition of two stage stochastic mixed 0-1 models. We represent the two stage stochastic mixed 0-1 problem by a ...
Fractional Integration Analysis and its Implications on Profitability: the Case of the Mackerel Market in the Basque Country
(2010)
This paper analyses weekly prices for mackerel landed by the inshore fleet at the ports of the Basque Country in 1995-2008, using new econometric techniques never before applied to the fishing market. The idea is to learn ...
A note on the implementation of the BFC-MSMIP algorithm in C++ by using COIN-OR as an optimization engine
(2010)
The aim of this technical report is to present some detailed explanations in order to help to understand and use the algorithm Branch and Fix Coordination for solving MultiStage Mixed Integer Problems (BFC- MSMIP). We have ...
On downloading and using COIN-OR for solving linear/integer optimization problems
(2010)
The aim of this technical report is to present some detailed explanations in order to help to use the open source software for optimization COIN-OR. In particular, we describe how to download, install and use the corresponding ...
