This study addresses the question of what is the relative input relationship between coauthors in economics. Using the direct addilog production function, the partial elasticities of substitution between coauthors are estimated. The empirical results suggest that coauthors in economics are...

This article examines the empirical performance of alternative frontier estimators' ability to replicate a known underlying technology and economic measures such as multi-product and product-specific economies of scale, and economies of scope. A cross sectional Monte Carlo procedure to simulate...
