Where markets are insufficiently competitive, governments can intervene by auctioning licenses to operate or by forcing divestitures. The Dutch government has done exactly that, organizing auctions to redistribute tenancy rights for high-way gasoline stations and forcing the divestiture of...

Another reason behind the frequent utilization of open auction formats may be that they … and in the potential activation of behavioral biases: (i) the ascending Vickrey auction, a closed format; and two open … formats, (ii) the Japanese-English auction and (iii) the Oral Outcry auction.

This auction leads to the same outcome as the unregulated game (for a given market … structure), since this gives the maximum profit to transfer.

In this paper methods of mixing decision rules are investigated and applied to the so-called multiple job type assignment problem with specialized servers which is modeled as continuous time Markov decision process. Performance optimization is difficult for this assignment problem, but...

This paper features an analysis of the effectiveness of a range of portfolio diversification strategies, with a focus on down-side risk metrics, as a portfolio diversification strategy in a European market context. We apply these measures to a set of daily arithmetically compounded returns on a...

We consider a model for a serial supply chain in which production, inventory, and transportation decisions are integrated, in the presence of production capacities and for different transportation cost functions. The model we study is a generalization of the traditional single-item economic...
