Citizen Laboratories as Scenarios of Cultural and Political Democratization

open access: yesSocial Sciences, 2023
The inefficiency of states in meeting their populations’ needs poses a deterrent to citizen participation. Within this context, an inquiry into the impact of citizen laboratories on urban governance becomes pertinent. Democracy necessitates innovation to

Inefficient Equilibrium Unemployment in a Duocentric Economy with Matching Frictions [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
This article examines unemployment disparities and efficiency in a densely populated economy with two job centers and workers distributed between them. We introduce commuting costs and search-matching frictions to deal with the spatial mismatch between workers and firms.

Common-Pool Resources are intrinsically unstable

open access: yesInternational Journal of the Commons, 2017
Efficient allocations in common-pool resources cannot be accomplished when appropriators are selfish. In addition, we find that a system of a common-pool resource is locally unstable if there are four or more appropriators.

Inefficient equilibria in transition economy

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 1999
The paper studies a general equilibrium in an economy where all market participants face a bid-ask spread. The spread may be caused by indirect business taxes, middlemen rent-seeking, delays in payments or liquidity constraints or price uncertainty ...

Analysis of choked two-phase flows of gas and particle in a C-D nozzle

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2017
Particle–gas two-phase flows show significantly different behaviors compared to single gas flow through a convergent–divergent nozzle. Non-equilibrium effects, thermal and velocity lag results to the inefficiency of nozzle performance.

Maximizing Efficiency in the Suez Canal: A New Approach to Evaluate the Impact of Optimal Time-Varying Tolls on Ship Arrival Times

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
In the existing literature, an optimal time-varying toll scheme has been proposed for the Suez Canal to address the inefficiency of numerous ships queuing and waiting at the anchorage area to enter the canal.

Absolute vs. relative success: Why overconfidence is an inefficient equilibrium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Overconfidence is one of the most ubiquitous biases in the social sciences, but the evidenceregarding its overall costs and benefits is mixed. To test the possibility that overconfidence mightyield important relative benefits that offset its absolute costs, we conducted an experiment (N=298university students) in which pairs of participants bargain ...
