We prove that the type structure constructed in [Epstein, L., Wang, T., 1996. 'Belief about belief' without probabilities. Econometrica 64, 1343-1373] is a universal/terminal type structure into which every suitably regular type structure can be embedded. Moreover, it is unique up to a...

Due to the connections of energy uses, carbon emissions and climate, this study investigates the interactions, volatility spillovers, and long memory effects for carbon, oil, natural gas and coal markets by using FIEC-HYGARCH model. It also discusses the mediating effect of extreme weather. The...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to find the key innovative principles for evaluating the long-term care (LTC) cloud system by exploring contradictory and complex points in its development. Design/methodology/approach The theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ) and the decision-making...

We say that a social choice rule is implementable with (small) transfers if one can design a mechanism whose set of equilibrium outcomes coincides with that specified by the rule but the mechanism allows for (small) ex post transfers among the players. We then show in private-value environments...
