This paper provides the first in-depth investigation into the evolution of the wealth gap between CCP and non-CCP households in urban China from 1995 to 2017. We apply unconditional quantile regression (UQR) to analyze the variations in the premiums of party membership across the wealth...

In this paper, for solving the nonlinear semidefinite programming problem, a homotopy is constructed by using the parameterized matrix inequality constraint. Existence of a smooth path determined by the homotopy equation, which starts from almost everywhere and converges to a...

The mean-risk stochastic mixed-integer programs can better model complex decision problems under uncertainty than usual stochastic (integer) programming models. In order to derive theoretical results in a numerically tractable way, the contamination technique is adopted in this paper for the...

By the field experiment, we research the rice nutrient use efficiency. And the results show that the formulated fertilization can improve the fertilizer nutrient use rate, and N, P2O5, and K2O are improved by 121%, 38%, and 64%, respectively; soil nitrogen level and application rate of nitrogen...
