Structural analysis deals with economic systems as defined by the set of industries and the relationships between them. However, multi-sectoral models are often limited: when studying economic systems empirically it is difficult to distinguish a priori the subset of basic or important...

We consider a discrete time finite Markov decision process (MDP) with the discounted and weighted reward optimality criteria. In [1] the authors considered some decomposition of limiting average MDPs. In this paper, we use an analogous approach for discounted and weighted MDPs. Then, we...

Arc routing problem being one of the well known problems in combinatorial optimization is handled in this paper. The Chinese postman problem which is an arc routing problem, has many applications in real life problems such as mail delivery, road maintenance, routing of patrol cars and snow...

Vector autoregressions (VARs) are economically interpretable only when identified by being transformed into a structural form (the SVAR) in which the contemporaneous variables stand in a well-defined causal order. These identifying transformations are not unique. It is widely believed that...
