The Outflow Ranking Method for Weighted Directed Graphs
van den Brink, René; Gilles, Robert P. - 2006
A ranking method assigns to every weighted directed graph a (weak) orderingof the nodes. In this paper we axiomatize the ranking method that ranksthe nodes according to their outflow using four independent axioms. This outflowranking method generalizes the ranking by outdegree for directed...

The game of negotiations: Ordering issues and implementing agreements
Busch, Lutz-Alexander; Horstmann, Ignatius J. - 2000
We use a two-issue bargaining model with asymmetric information to study agent choice of how to structure bargaining. We uncover the settings in which different agenda structures are chosen in equilibrium, how the order in which issues are bargained over matters, and what impact the rules for...

Slippery slopes of stress: ordered failure events in German banking
Koetter, Michael; Kick, Thomas - 2007
Outright bank failures without prior indication of financial instability are very rare. Supervisory authorities monitor banks constantly. Thus, they usually obtain early warning signals that precede ultimate failure and, in fact, banks can be regarded as troubled to varying degrees before...

Statistical tests and estimators of the rank of a matrix and their applications in econometric modelling
Camba-Méndez, Gonzalo; Kapetanios, George - 2008
Testing and estimating the rank of a matrix of estimated parameters is key in a large variety of econometric modelling scenarios. This paper describes general methods to test for and estimate the rank of a matrix, and provides details on a variety of modelling scenarios in the econometrics...

Implementation and Orderings of Public Information
Campbell, Colin M. - 2003
We explore the relationship between public information and implementable outcomes in an environment characterized by random endowments and private information. We show that if public signals carry no information about private types, then an exact relationship holds: a more informative public...

Small sample properties of the Wilcoxon signed rank test with discontinuous and dependent observations
Chlaß, Nadine; Krüger, Jens J. - 2007
This Monte-Carlo study investigates sensitivity of the Wilcoxon signed rank test to certain assumption violations in small samples. Emphasis is put on within-sample-dependence, between-sample dependence, and the presence of ties. Our results show that both assumption violations induce severe...
