Categorizing networked services The role of intrinsic-, user network- and complement network attributes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)Purpose – This paper aims to investigate the properties and attributes of networked services and to propose a general categorization scheme for such services. Design/methodology/approach – Two separate studies were ... -
The Economic Geography of Regional Differentiation - Studies in Sogn og Fjordane, Norway
(Doctoral thesis, 1975)The central concern of this thesis is with the degree of freedom of action which peripheral areas retain in directing their own development. The evolution of regional policy in Norway is described in detail, with close ... -
Las locuciones adjetivas y verbales en un diccionario fraselógico de producción
(Journal article, 2008)En el presente trabajo se parte del concepto de que la fraseología es, posiblemente, una de las parcelas de la lengua que mayores dificultades presenta en el aprendizaje de una lengua extranjera. Por esta razón, los ... -
Business models for open innovation: Matching heterogeneous open innovation strategies with business model dimensions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Research on open innovation suggests that companies benefit differentially from adopting open innovation strategies; however, it is unclear why this is so. One possible explanation is that companies' business models are ... -
Strategic Pricing of Commodities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)We consider a setting where a large number of agents are trading commodity bundles. Assuming that agents of the same type have a certain utility attached to each transaction, we construct a statistical equilibrium which ... -
Climate Policy and the steel industry: achieving global emission reductions by an incomplete climate agreement
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2004)The steel industry is one of the largest sources of global CO 2 emissions and hence a candidate for climate policies. A carbon tax on emissions in industrialized countries, however, will cause relocation of steel production ... -
The tyranny puzzle in social preferences: an empirical investigation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)When forming their preferences about the distribution of income, rational people may be caught between two opposite forms of “tyranny.” Giving absolute priority to the worst-off imposes a sort of tyranny on the rest of the ... -
Modeling Freight Markets for Coal
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)In this paper we study bulk shipping of coal between the central regions in the world. We compare the performance of cost-minimizing models with a gravity model approach. The main finding in the paper is that cost minimizing ... -
A note on upward pricing pressure: the possibility of false positives
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Joseph Farrell and Carl Shapiro proposed a simple test of the possible upward pricing pressure (UPP) following a merger. They showed that the test may give false negatives—that is, indicate that a merger may not give an ... -
Give and take in dictator games
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)It has been shown that participants in the dictator game are less willing to give money to the other participant when their choice set also includes the option to take money. We examine whether this effect is due to the ... -
Single-product versus uniform SSNIPs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)It is common to apply a SSNIP test with a uniform price increase on all products in the candidate market. We show that in situations with asymmetries – for example variations in revenues – a uniform SSNIP test may suggest ... -
Diffusion of pharmaceuticals: cross-country evidence of anti-TNF drugs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This article studies the diffusion of biopharmaceuticals across European countries, focusing on anti-TNF drugs, which are used to treat autoimmune diseases (e.g., rheumatism, psoriasis). We use detailed sales information ... -
Merger simulations with observed diversion ratios
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)One approach to merger simulations used in antitrust cases is to calibrate demand from market shares and a few additional parameters. When the products involved in the merger case are differentiated along several dimensions, ... -
Callable risky perpetual debt with protection period
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)Issuances in the USD 260 Bn global market of perpetual risky debt are often motivated by capital requirements for financial institutions. We analyze callable risky perpetual debt emphasizing an initial protection (‘grace’) ... -
Responsibility for what? Fairness and individual responsibility
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)What should individuals be held responsible for? This is a fundamental question in much of the contemporary debate on distributive justice. Different fairness ideals, such as strict egalitarianism, and different versions ... -
The tyranny of non-aggregation versus the tyranny of aggregation in social choices: a real dilemma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)Can a tiny gain to sufficiently many well-off justify imposing a much larger sacrifice on the worst-off? We show that if one answers negatively to such a question and endorses replication invariance, one is forced to accept ... -
Company taxation and tax spillovers: Separate accounting versus formula apportionment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)It is observed in the real world that taxes matter for location decisions and that multinationals shift profits by transfer pricing. The US and Canada use so-called formula apportionment (FA) to tax corporate income, and ... -
A New Latent Class to Fit Spatial Econometrics Models with Integrated Nested Laplace Approximations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The new slm latent model for estimating spatial econometrics models using INLA has recently been introduced. It will be described briefly and its use will be demonstrated in the accompanying poster. -
Implementing Approximations to Extreme Eigenvalues and Eigenvalues of Irregular Surface Partitionings for use in SAR and CAR Models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Good approximations of eigenvalues exist for the regular square and hexagonal tessellations. To complement this situation, spatial scientists need good approximations of eigenvalues for irregular tessellations. Starting ... -
Quota Enforcement and Capital Investment in Natural Resource Industries
(Discussion paper;21/15, Working paper, 2015-08)We investigate the relationship between quota enforcement, compliance, and capital accumulation in ITQ regulated fisheries. Over-extraction and over-capacity represent two of the main fisheries management challenges, and ...
