In this paper we study the dynamic general equilibrium path of an economy and the associated optimal growth path in a two-sector overlapping generation model with a stock pollutant. A sector (power generation) is polluting, and the other (final good) is not. Pollution is regulated by tradable...

We study comparative statics of Nth-degree risk increases within a large class of problems that involve bidimensional payoffs and additive or multiplicative risks. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for unambiguous impact of Nth-degree risk increases on optimal decision making. We...

The goal of our research is to gain a better understanding of organizational death, by looking at it as a process. This topic of research, with such an apprroach, is not very common in the litterature. The topic of organizational decline has received very little attention from researchers in...

Many empirical and behavioral studies identify a decreasing slope in the term structure of subjective discount rates. Using an experimental methodology based on “free-time” relative comparisons, this paper aims to identify in individual behaviors whether agents see their psychological value...

ELECTRE TRI is a method designed to sort alternatives evaluated on several criteria into ordered categories. The original method uses limiting profiles. A recently introduced variant uses central profiles. We study the relations between these two variants. We do so by investigating if an ordered...

This article provides an overview of the literature on the psychological value of time. It discusses various determinants of the discount rate and the possibility of hyperbolic discounting. The historical approach helps us to trace the origins of the concept of psychological value of time. This...

Strategy is made of moves, counter-moves, adjustments, actions and reactions. It is founded on an ever-changing external and internal context where numerous actors continuously modify the rules of the game. In these contexts, managers can’t rely on effective planned processes. They have to...

Many empirical and behavioral studies underline the idea of a non-flat term structure of subjective interest rates with a decreasing slope. Using an empirical test, this paper aims at identifying in individual behaviors whether agents see their psychological value of time decreasing or not. We...
