International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract We propose the novel p‐branch‐and‐bound method for solving two‐stage stochastic programming problems whose deterministic equivalents are represented by non‐convex mixed‐integer quadratically constrained quadratic programming (MIQCQP) models. The precision of the solution generated by the p‐branch‐and‐bound method can be arbitrarily adjusted by

A new family of models with generalized orientation in data envelopment analysis
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract In the framework of data envelopment analysis, we review directional models and show that they are inadequate when inputs and outputs are improved simultaneously under constant returns to scale. Conversely, we introduce a new family of quadratically constrained models with generalized orientation and demonstrate that these models overcome this

Integrated location–inventory planning for slow‐moving demands with waiting time limitations
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract This paper studies a stochastic facility location problem integrated with inventory and transportation decisions (SFLPIT) for supply chains with slow‐moving stock‐keeping units (SKUs). Local stores often avoid maintaining such SKUs, resulting in customer demand being fulfilled directly by a central distribution center (DC), where the ...

Monetary Policy When Preferences Are Quasi‐Hyperbolic
Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.Abstract We study discretionary monetary policy in an economy where economic agents have quasi‐hyperbolic discounting. We demonstrate that a benevolent central bank is able to keep inflation under control for a wide range of discount factors. If the central bank, however, does not adopt the household's time preferences and tries to discourage early ...

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract The majority of planetary impacts occur at oblique angles. Impact structures on Earth are commonly eroded or buried, rendering the identification of the direction and angle of impact—using methods such as asymmetries in ejecta distribution, surface topographic expression, central uplift structure, and geophysical anomalies—challenging. In this

Informal Firms' Adoption and Use of Mobile Money Under Uncertain Times: Evidence From Burkina Faso
Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates how uncertainty affects mobile money adoption and use by informal businesses. Despite the prevalence of the informal sector in developing countries and the recognized potential of mobile money for financial inclusion, empirical research on its adoption and usage among unregistered businesses is limited.
