Biogas production is one of the most promising pathways toward fully utilizing green energy within a circular economy. The anaerobic digestion process is the industry standard technology for biogas production due to its lowered energy consumption and its reliance on microbiology. Even in such an...

In this paper we study a class of evolutionary models of industrial agglomeration with local positive feedbacks, which allow for a wide set of empirically-testable implications. Their roots rest in the Generalized Polya Urn framework. Here, however, we build on a birth-death process over a...

This paper provides a description of the production process by comparing different frameworks in which to analyze the relations between inputs and output. The analyses are performed on a representative sample of Italian manufacturing firms. We employ both parametric and non-parametric analysis....

This work explores the spatial distribution of productive activities in the Italian manufacturing industry. We propose an econometric model which tries to disentangle locationspecific from sectoral drivers in the dynamic process of spatial agglomeration. The basic idea is that the former...

We consider an economy in which a heterogeneous population of agents have to choose among a common set of alternatives. The utilities associated to the different alternatives posses a common component and an individual component, which reflect differences in the underlying structure of agents...

In this study we specify and estimate a structural model of multiproduct firms for the semiconductor industry. In addition, we explicitly consider dynamics over the product life cycle. We find that these two aspects have important implications and provide evidence that (i) Spillover and...

In this paper, we specify a theoretical dynamic oligopoly model with regard to asymmetric firms. We then estimate a structural dynamic model of demand and pricing relations for the semiconductor industry. Using quarterly firm-level output and cost data as well as industry prices from 1974 to...
