Pure Component Pricing in a Duopoly
2002
In this paper, we focus on price competition between several multiproduct firms which produce differentiated systems, each consisting of two complementary products. It is shown here that if firms are restricted to pure component pricing (bundling is not allowed) whenever components produced are compatible, pure strategy equilibrium may not exist. With the use of bundling strategies, pure strategy equilibrium always exists. For the pure component pricing case we provide a full characterization for the existence of a pure strategy equilibrium.
Sport entrepreneurs’ performance in business

Entrepreneurial orientation (EO) is one of the performance measurements in the research on sport entrepreneurship. Another measure of performance studied is coopetition (simultaneous collaboration ...
Variation and change in English resultative constructions
2010
AbstractThe system of English resultative constructions is in a state of flux characterized by variation between two of its most prominent competitors,way-constructions as inShe worked herwayto the topand reflexive structures as inShe worked herselfto the top.Although this competition has occasionally been addressed in the literature (cf. Jackendoff, 1990:213; Kirchner, 1951:158; Salkoff, 1988:54ff.), the present findings reveal that the long-standing rivalry between these structures has resulted in an increased use of theway-construction at the expense of reflexive structures. In addition, the coexistence ofway-constructions with semantically overlapping reflexive structures eventually cul…

Institutional Path Dependence in Competitive Dynamics: The Case of Paper Industries in Finland and the USA
2016
Prior research on competitive dynamics has failed to offer tools to understand distorted patterns of competition that emerge from distinct institutional and historical contexts. Our analysis suggests that a joint effect of institutional rules, governance structures, and shared cognition plays a pivotal role in firm-level competitive behavior and capability development. We show how globally significant market positions can result from specific institutional arrangements between firms and governments, especially if coupled with interfirm contractual commitments. Our results call for more attention to these interfirm commitments that are built on formal rules and governmental support, but whos…
LE AREE INTERNE PER LO SVILUPPO DEL TERRITORIO E LA COMPLEMENTARITÀ DI PROGRAMMI E STRUMENTI FRA LE POLITICHE EUROPEE DI SVILUPPO RURALE E DI COESIONE
Le Aree Interne rappresentano un tema particolarmente importante per la programmazione e la spesa dei fondi comunitari nel periodo 2014-2020 perché costituiscono il più grande esempio di complementarità fra le Politiche europee di sviluppo rurale e di coesione. Per lo sviluppo di queste Aree è stata creata una Strategia Nazionale per le Aree Interne (SNAI) che mira alla valorizzazione ed al recupero di tutti quei territori (rurali, montuosi, svantaggiati) dal carattere marginale rispetto alla disponibilità e all’offerta di servizi essenziali. La peculiarità di tale Strategia è quella di promuovere lo sviluppo di aree che sono uniformemente distribuite in tutto il comprensorio nazionale a di…
Strict compliance with ESC therapeutic guidelines after myocardial infarction treated with invasive strategy correlates with improved 18-month outcom…
2020
Abstract Background Despite improved early outcomes in patients (pts) with acute myocardial infarction (MI) in Poland with prevalent strategy of primary angioplasty by radial access, mid- and long-term outcomes are unsatisfactory. Objective We hypothesized that strict implementation of secondary prevention ESC guidelines in post-infarction management may be related with improved mid-term clinical outcomes Methods We compared 18-month outcomes of pts treated for MI with primary invasive strategy in a tertiary university hospital (NSTEMI 470/47%, or STEMI 535/53%; N=1005; Gr-L) with similar subset from national databases AMI-PL and PL-ACS (N=117307; NSTEMI 50966/43%, STEMI 64078/57%; Gr-Pol).…
A general equilibrium analysis of climate change impacts on tourism
2006
This paper studies the economic implications of climate-change-induced variations in tourism demand, using a world CGE model. The model is first re-calibrated at some future years, obtaining hypothetical benchmark equilibria, which are subsequently perturbed by shocks, simulating the effects of climate change. We portray the impact of climate change on tourism by means of two sets of shocks, occurring simultaneously. The first set of shocks translate predicted variations in tourist flows into changes of consumption preferences for domestically produced goods. The second set reallocate income across world regions, simulating the effect of higher or lower tourists' expenditure. Our analysis h…
A saturated strategy robustly ensures stability of the cooperative equilibrium for Prisoner's dilemma
2016
We study diffusion of cooperation in a two-population game in continuous time. At each instant, the game involves two random individuals, one from each population. The game has the structure of a Prisoner's dilemma where each player can choose either to cooperate (c) or to defect (d), and is reframed within the field of approachability in two-player repeated game with vector payoffs. We turn the game into a dynamical system, which is positive, and propose a saturated strategy that ensures local asymptotic stability of the equilibrium (c, c) for any possible choice of the payoff matrix. We show that there exists a rectangle, in the space of payoffs, which is positively invariant for the syst…
Population Games with Vector Payoff and Approachability
2016
This paper studies population games with vector payoffs. It provides a new perspective on approachability based on mean-field game theory. The model involves a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation which describes the best-response of every player given the population distribution and an advection equation, capturing the macroscopic evolution of average payoffs if every player plays its best response.
