Optimal Linear Commodity Taxation Under Optimal Non-Linear Income Taxation [PDF]
Abstract This paper analyzes optimal linear commodity taxes joint with non-linear income taxes. We provide optimal tax rules based on empirically observable elasticities, earnings and commodity demands. We demonstrate that commodities should be taxed/subsidized if – conditional on earnings – doing so boosts labor supply as the critical role of ...

A polynomial-time algorithm for linear optimization based on a new kernel function with trigonometric barrier term [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a large-update interior-point algorithm for linear optimization based on a new kernel function. New search directions and proximity measure are defined based on this kernel function.
