By using a semiparametric specification, we examine the impact of urban concentration in economic growth on different groups of countries that we classify according to a geographical criterion or according to their level of development. Facing a significant proportion of missing data, we handle...

Judgment (or logical) aggregation theory is logically more powerful than social choice theory and has been put to use to recover some classic results of this field. Whether it could also enrich it with genuinely new results is still controversial. To support a positive answer, we prove a social...

IRP involves the distribution of one or more products from a supplier to a set of clients over a discrete planning horizon. Each client has a known demand to be met in each period and can only hold a limited amount of stock. The product is shipped through a distribution network by one or more...

We investigate how to solve several classical network flow problems using secure multi-party computation. We consider the shortest path problem, the Minimum Mean Cycle problem and the Minimum Cost Flow problem. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time the two last problems have been...

The Ramsey model of economic growth is revisited from the point of view of viability. A viable state is a state from which there exists at least one tra jectory that remains in the set of constraints of minimal consumption and positive wealth. Viability is presented with a constraint of minimal...

In this paper I develop an empirical framework to estimate the role of agglomeration externalities, especially those stemming from input-output linkages, in the location process of US manufacturing plants. Furthermore, drawing on the model of Holmesand Stevens (2004b), I propose a way to...

A community faces the obligation of providing an indivisible public good. Each member is capable of providing it at a certain cost and the solution is to rely on the player who can do it at the lowest cost. It is then natural that he or she be compensated by the other players. The question is to...

We consider the problem of specifying Fair, Reasonable And Non-Discriminatory agreements faced by standard-setting organizations. Along with Layne-Farrar, Padilla and Schmalensee (2007), we model the problem as a cooperative game with transferable utility, allowing for patents to be weak in the...
