A Faithful Distributed Implementation of Dual Decomposition and Average Consensus Algorithms
, 2013 We consider large scale cost allocation problems and consensus seeking problems for multiple agents, in which agents are suggested to collaborate in a distributed algorithm to find a solution. If agents are strategic to minimize their own individual cost

Chlorella vulgaris biorefineries: sustainable biofuels and high‐value carbon capture
Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Global reliance on fossil fuels has created urgent economic and environmental challenges, yet large‐scale use of algal biomass remains limited by production costs. Industrial scaling is constrained by inefficient harvesting and the technical challenges of processing recalcitrant cell walls.

Bunching and Non-Bunching at Kink Points of the Swedish Tax schedule [PDF]
The compensated taxable income elasticity at a given income level is proportional to the number of individuals who bunch at a convex kink point. This holds true even in the presence of optimization frictions if the jump in marginal tax rates is suciently

, 2011 This paper provides a methodology to derive simple formulas that facilitate interpretation of the forces behind the optimal taxation results in dynamic settings. The formulas easily connect to empirically observable data and extend the analysis of Diamond (1998) and Saez (2001) to the dynamic settings.

The Efficiency of Optimal Taxes [PDF]
, 2005 It is well known that the selfish behavior of users in a network can be regulated through the imposition of the so-called optimal taxes on the network edges. Any traffic equilibrium reached by the selfish users who are conscious of both the travel latencies and the taxes will minimize the social cost, i.e., will minimize the total latency.

Investor Perception of ESG in Earnings Calls
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines how the communicator's role and the framing of ESG statements affect investor capital allocation in the context of earnings calls. Based on a virtual asset market experiment, the analysis identifies that the assurance and reinforcement of ESG messages have a positive effect of up to 8% on capital allocation, with especially
