Technology, Work Intensification and Burnout*

open access: yesEconomic Record, EarlyView.
We model how technologies that allow managers to directly communicate with and more closely monitor employees can lead to an intensification of work, heightening employee vulnerability to burnout. When multiple managers assign tasks simultaneously, like in a matrix organisation, employees can become overburdened, decreasing their productivity and well ...

Approximation of Isomorphic Infinite Two-Person Non-Cooperative Games by Variously Sampling the Players’ Payoff Functions and Reshaping Payoff Matrices into Bimatrix Game

open access: yesApplied Computer Systems, 2016
Approximation in solving the infinite two-person non-cooperative games is studied in the paper. An approximation approach with conversion of infinite game into finite one is suggested. The conversion is fulfilled in three stages.

Network Structure and the Efficiency Gains from Mergers: Evidence from U.S. Freight Railroads

open access: yesThe RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The trade‐off between market power and efficiency gains is central to antitrust analyses of mergers, but empirical evidence quantifying efficiencies remains limited. Using transaction‐level data from U.S. freight railroads (1985–2005), this article quantifies merger‐induced cost efficiencies, driven mainly by eliminating inter‐railroad ...

Bureaucrat assignments as instruments of political control: Theory and evidence from land administration officials in India

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates how politicians use the assignment of officials to geographical posts—a personnel system found in many countries—as a system of incentives to control, and possibly corrupt, bureaucratic behavior. The argument is developed with a matching model and tested with a nationwide survey of Indian officials who administer land ...

Spite in litigation

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper studies how litigation and settlement behaviour is affected by agents motivated by spiteful preferences under the American fee‐shifting rule compared to the English one. We conduct an experiment and find that litigation expenditures are overall higher under the English rule compared to the American rule—even for low‐merit cases ...

Game-Based Resource Allocation Mechanism in B5G HetNets with Incomplete Information

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Ultra-dense and highly heterogeneous network (HetNet) deployments make the allocation of limited wireless resources among ubiquitous Internet of Things (IoT) devices an unprecedented challenge in 5G and beyond (B5G) networks.

Implementation in mixed Nash equilibrium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A mechanism implements a social choice correspondence f in mixed Nash equilibrium if at any preference profile, the set of all pure and mixed Nash equilibrium outcomes coincides with the set of f-optimal alternatives at that preference profile.

The effects of minimum wage regulation in inter‐regional oligopoly competition

open access: yesContemporary Economic Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine how minimum wage regulation affects firm profit when labor‐market power interacts with product‐market competition. A binding wage floor reduces the regulated firm's marginal labor cost, inducing it to expand production. This expansion can induce rivals to contract production when relevant strategic variables are strategic ...
