On the optimal control of interbank contagion in the euro area banking system

Fukker, Gábor; Kok Sørensen, Christoffer - 2021

financial system to minimize potential contagion losses. Building on ideas from combinatorial optimization tailored to … controlling contagion in case of complete information about an interbank network, we augment the model with three plausible types … contagion losses and the policy authority's ability to control them depend on the assumed fire sale mechanism and the fiscal …

Spatial dynamics of green corridors

Boulanger, Vincent; Bruchiamacchie, Max; Chauchard, Sandrine - Département Sciences Sociales, Agriculture et … - 2013

Forest management aims at building ecological networks that minimize the impacts on timber production. We formalize the construction of ecological networks in forest environments as the optimal control dynamic graph-theoretic problem. The ecological network is based on a set of bioreserves and...

Models on CO2 abatement under uncertainty

Thomas S. Lontzek - 2009

The major goal of this thesis is to contribute answering the question how changes in economic actions affect the climate and at the same time, how do changes in the climate affect the economy. This thesis consists of three parts. In the first part (Chapter 2) we stress the role of the oceans as...

The economics of urban water policy : infrastructure, scarcity, and conservation

Hansen, Jason - 2009

This research focuses on urban water policy. The three papers extend the literature through economic application, taking theory in a direction that informs water resource managers on optimal decision-making or a better approach to management. Three primary results are: first, that the optimal...

Service-level agreements in call centers: Perils and prescriptions

Milner, JM; Olsen, TL - 2008

Acall center with both contract and noncontract customers was giving priority to the contract customers only in off-peak hours, precisely when having priority was least important. In this paper, we investigate whether this is rational behavior on the part of the call center and what the...

A Theory of Education and Health

Galama, Titus J.; van Kippersluis, Hans - 2015

This paper presents a unified theory of human capital with both health capital and, what we term, skill capital endogenously determined within the model. By considering joint investment in health capital and in skill capital, the model highlights similarities and differences in these two...

Convex monotone semigroups and their generators with respect to Г-convergence

Blessing, Jonas; Denk, Robert; Kupper, Michael; Nendel, Max - 2022

We study semigroups of convex monotone operators on spaces of continuous functions and their behaviour with respect to Γ-convergence. In contrast to the linear theory, the domain of the generator is, in general, not invariant under the semigroup. To overcome this issue, we consider different...

Optimal vaccination in a SIRS epedemic model

Federico, Salvatore; Ferrari, Giorgio; Torrente, Maria-Laura - 2022

We propose and solve an optimal vaccination problem within a deterministic compartmental model of SIRS type: the immunized population can become susceptible again, e.g. because of a not complete immunization power of the vaccine. A social planner thus aims at reducing the number of susceptible...

Sinking Land: Optimal Control of Subsidence

Sen, Suphi; Verhoeven, Dewy; Weikard, Hans-Peter - 2023

Land subsidence threatens the living conditions of roughly 1.2 billion people worldwide in deltaic regions characterized by soft top soil. Economic activity in deltaic regions requires lowering the groundwater levels to keep the land sufficiently dry to maintain productivity, which, however,...
