A two-period counterterrorism model is developed. One special case without terrorist sponsoring enables the government to degrade the terrorist's resources substantially, especially with low unit counterterrorism cost or high asset valuations. If the terrorist in a second special case is...

We examine the effects of endogenous sequences on the fairness in round-robin tournaments with four players, multiple prizes, and general contest technologies. A tournament is called horizontally ex-ante fair if symmetric contestants have the same expected payoffs (odds) before the tournament...
