The news-shock literature interprets empirical news-shock identifications as signals about future productivity. Under this view, changes in productivity cause changes in expectations. I investigate an alternative interpretation whereby changes in expectations cause changes in productivity. I...

Celem artykułu jest próba systematyzacji ekonomicznych skutków eksploatacji gazu łupkowego, a także omówienie różnorodnych podejść metodycznych i narzędzi stosowanych w analizach dotyczących tego zagadnienia. Podstawą analizy jest przegląd literatury przedmiotu, dokonywany pod...

This paper explore how simulation results change with different choice of trade specification, and the strength of preference for traded variety by economic agent differs, utilizing two types of three-region, three-sector AGE model that includes the Armington-Krugman-Melitz Encompassing module...

We examine linkages between aggregate household income, distribution of that income, and aggregate cross-country expenditure patterns. We are able to decompose income effects into international income dispersion effects (from variations in average income) and national income dispersion (income...

This discussion paper resulted in a publication in 'Discrete Optimization', 2007, 4, 315-321.<P> In this paper an algorithm is proposed to find an integral solution of (nonlinear) complementarity problems. The algorithm starts with a nonnegative integral point and generates a unique sequence of...</p>

We examine the effect of railway travel on urban spatial structure in a polycentric urban land use model. We focus on the role of access to the railway network. We find that if the number of train stations is limited, the degree of urbanization is higher around train stations, but the effect of...

This discussion paper led to a publication in <A href="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0377221711004498">'European Journal of Operational Research'</A>, 214(3), 493-500.<P>We study the existence problem of a zero point of a function defined on a finite set of elements of the integer lattice of the n-dimensional Euclidean space. It is assumed that the set is...</p></a>

This discussion paper resulted in a publication in the 'SIAM Journal on Optimization', 2007, 18, 290-308. <P> In this paper we present two general results on the existence of a discrete zero point of a function from the n-dimensional integer lattice Zn to the n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn. Under...</p>
