Wrede, Matthias - 2010
all levels of the supply chain. The paper studies the effects on segmentation and agglomeration of interregional trade in …. It shows that the interplay of heterogenous skills and relatively homogeneous land demand triggers skill segmentation and … agglomeration. The core region, being more attractive to high skilled workers, has a disproportionately large share of production at …

Heterogeneous skills and homogeneous land: Segmentation and agglomeration
Wrede, Matthias - 2012
briefly studies how trade in intermediate goods and endogenous land demand affect segmentation and agglomeration. …. It shows that the interplay of heterogeneous skills and comparatively homogeneous land demand triggers skill segmentation … and agglomeration. The core region that is more attractive to high skilled workers has a disproportionately large share of …

Unemployment, commuting, and search intensity
Wrede, Matthias - 2011
Employing a standard matching unemployment model extended by within-labor-market-regions commuting, this paper analyzes the tradeoff between commuting costs and unemployment. Depending on whether commuters are able to bargain for fringe benefits, search may or may not be biased towards distant...

Wages, Rents, Unemployment, and the Quality of Life
Wrede, Matthias - 2013
Combining a spatial equilibrium model with a search-matching unemployment model, this paper analyzes the willingness to pay for regional amenities and the regional quality of life when wages, rents, and unemployment risk compensate for local amenities and disamenities. The results are compared...

Continuous Logit Polycentric City Model
Wrede, Matthias - 2014
This paper analyzes a closed linear polycentric city with homogenous households who probabilistically select their workplace and residence locations. The study utilizes a continuous logit model to describe household location choices. In contrast to the classic urban model with deterministic...

Wages, rents, unemployment, and the quality of life
Wrede, Matthias - 2012
Combining a spatial equilibrium model with a matching unemployment model, this paper analyzes the regional quality of life when wages, rents, and unemployment risk compensate for local amenities and disamenities. In particular, the paper shows for quasi-linear utility that the effects of any...

Continuous Logit Polycentric City Model
Wrede, Matthias - 2014
This paper analyzes a closed, essentially linear polycentric city with homogenous households who probabilistically select their workplace and residence locations. The study utilizes a continuous logit model to describe household location choices. In contrast to the classic urban model with...

Working from Home: Too Much of a Good Thing?
Behrens, Kristian; Kichko, Sergey; Thisse, Jacques-Francois - 2021
We develop a general equilibrium model with three primary production factors—land, skilled, and unskilled labor—and three sectors—construction, intermediate inputs, and final consump-tion—to study how different intensities of telecommuting affect the efficiency of firms that embrace home...
