This paper presents an interactive study on the relationship between the foreign trade structure, opening degree and economic growth of the provinces in western China (except Tibet). It shows that the export of primary products and labor-intensive products has a positive impact on the external...

This paper examines the growth performance and income inequality in eight Chinese provinces during the period of 1989-2004 using the China Health and Nutrition Survey data. It shows that income grew for all segments of the population, and as a result, poverty incidence has fallen. However,...

In this paper we propose a new class of tests for the martingale difference hypothesis based on the moment conditions derived by Bierens (1982). In contrast with the existing consistent tests, the proposed test has a standard limiting distribution and is easy to implement. Comparing with the...

Within the context of strategic interaction, we provide a unified framework for analyzing information, knowledge, and the "stable" pattern of behavior. We first study the related interactive epistemology and, in particular, show an equivalence theorem between a strictly dominated strategy and a...

We offer a definition of iterated elimination of strictly dominated strategies (IESDS) for games with (in)finite players, (non)compact strategy sets, and (dis)continuous payoff functions. IESDS is always a well-defined order independent procedure that can be used to solve Nash equilibrium in...

Porous organic polymers (POPs) have become a class of promising photocatalytic materials for solar water splitting due to their high structural adjustability, multiple active sites and high stability against water corrosion. However, because of the complex transfer process involved and the large...

We introduce the notion of a Conditional Hypothesis Testing System (CHTS) that specifies the concrete mode of non-Bayesian reactions for unexpected news in a conditional world. We show that Ortoleva's (2012) Hypothesis Testing Model (HTM) gives rise to a CHTS and thus provides an axiomatic...
