We consider a market economy that is composed of separate regions, each endowed with linear supply and demand curves and represented as a point on a transportation network. The problem addressed is to determine an equilibrium price in each region so that regional price differences do not exceed...

Traditionally, most applications in the initial stage of forest supply chain deal with sawlogs to sawmills, pulpwood to pulp or paper mills and forest residues to heating plants. However, in the past decades, soaring prices of fossil fuel, global awareness about CO2 emission and increasing...

We derive empirical tests for the mean-variance efficiency of a given portfolio. The tests can be computed using straightforward linear programming, and they give substantial flexibility in modeling the investment possibilities. Using this test, we can reject the hypothesis that the S&P 500...

Optimal solutions of interior point algorithms for linear and quadratic programming and linear complementarity problems provide maximal complementary solutions. Maximal complementary solutions can be characterized by optimal (tri)partitions. On the other hand, the solutions provided by...

In this paper we deal with sensitivity analysis in convex quadratic programming, without making assumptions on nondegeneracy, strict convexity of the objective function, and the existence of a strictly complementary solution. We show that the optimal value as a function of a right--hand side...

Theoretical part of this article examines the impact of information on the stochastic model of generating returns of assets (vector autoregressive model) on the optimal structure of assets allocation of the investment portfolio. Article includes theoretical basis for construction and...
