Proximity to bait and social interactions influence individual wild pig (Sus scrofa) visitation at bait sites

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Individual wild pig bait site visitation and time to initial detection is primarily influenced by space use (i.e., proximity to bait) and whether wild pigs from other social groups visited before. Specifically, females are less likely to visit a bait site if an adult male visits a site before them.

National Oligopolies and Economic Geography [PDF]

We replace monopolistic competition with national oligopolies in a model of "new economic geography". There are many possible bifurcation diagrams but, unlike in monopolistic competition, the symmetric equilibrium is always stable for low trade costs ...

Mean‐Variance Payoff Applied to Stackelberg Games

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyse a Stackelberg duopoly in which the leader faces uncertainty about the intercept demand, while the follower observes the realised demand and decides whether to enter the market after the uncertainty is resolved. The leader evaluates the uncertainty by maximising a mean‐variance utility function that captures its risk aversion.

Quality Distortions in Monopolistic Competition

Economic Modelling
In this paper, we explore how heterogeneous firms decide on vertical and horizontal qualities of their products. We show that if increasing the product qualities appears to be relatively costly, more productive firms choose higher vertical quality but lower horizontal quality. We also document distortions that arise in our framework.

Dynamic Effects of Regulation and Deregulation in Goods and Labour Markets [PDF]

Modern macroeconomic models with a Keynesian flavour usually involve nominal rigidities in wages and goods prices. A typical model is static and combines wage bargaining in the labour markets and monopolistic competition in the goods markets.
