Coordinating a bi‐level blood supply chain with interactions between supply‐side and demand‐side operational decisions

International Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 1971-2015, May 2026.
Abstract In most blood supply chains, blood centers and hospitals make individual decisions, resulting in an inefficient structure of the blood supply chain, which in turn renders supply and demand matching a challenging exercise. In this work, we make the very first attempt to optimize the interaction between blood centers and hospitals.

Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 266-279, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT We compare the merger participants' profits under a merger and under cross ownership (CO) in an oligopolistic industry with horizontally differentiated products. We show under Cournot competition that the merger participants would be better off under a symmetric CO than a merger.

Noncompensatory consideration and compensatory choice: an application to Stackelberg competition [PDF]

Economic Theory Bulletin, 2014
Unlike standard models of choice, experimental evidence suggests that individuals avoid tradeoffs when choice problems are complex. I analyze the implications of consumers using noncompensatory choice heuristics in a simple Stackelberg game in which firms offer menus of multi-attribute alternatives and influence the attribute considered to be salient ...

Buyer Power and the Effect of Vertical Integration on Innovation

Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 294-310, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT Our article investigates the impact of vertical integration (without foreclosure) on innovation. We compare cases where either (i) two manufacturers or (ii) a manufacturer and a vertically integrated retailer invest. Then, the independent manufacturer(s) and the retailer bargain over nonlinear contracts before selling to consumers.

Order Routing and Market Quality: Who Benefits From Internalization?

Mathematical Finance, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 397-421, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Does retail order internalization benefit (via price improvement) or harm (via reduced liquidity) retail traders? To answer this question, we compare two market designs that differ in their mode of liquidity provision: In the setting capturing retail order internalization, liquidity is provided by market makers (wholesalers) competing for the ...
