Hedonic price equilibria, stable matching, and optimal transport: Equivalence, topology, and uniqueness

Chiappori, Pierre-André; McCann, Robert J.; Nesheim, Lars - 2007

Hedonic pricing with quasilinear preferences is shown to be equivalent to stable matching with transferable utilities and a participation constraint, and to an optimal transportation (Monge-Kantorovich) linear programming problem. Optimal assignments in the latter correspond to stable matchings,...

Vertical integration and operational flexibility

Moretto, Michele; Rossini, Gianpaolo - 2008

The main aim of the paper is to highlight the relation between flexibility and vertical integration. To this purpose, we go through the selection of the optimal degree of vertical disintegration of a flexible firm which operates in a dynamic uncertain environment. The enterprise we model enjoys...

Stochastic linear programming with a distortion risk constraint

Bazovkin, Pavel; Mosler, Karl - 2011

Linear optimization problems are investigated whose parameters are uncertain. We apply coherent distortion risk measures to capture the violation of restrictions. Such a model turns out to be appropriate for many applications and, principally, for the mean-risk portfolio selection problem. Each...

Profit-oriented shift scheduling of inbound contact centers with skills-based routing, impatient customers, and retrials

Helber, Stefan; Henken, Kirsten - 2007

This paper presents a profit-oriented shift scheduling approach for inbound contact centers. The focus is on systems in which multiple agent classes with different qualifications serve multiple customer classes with different needs. We assume that customers are impatient, abandon if they have to...

Using linear programming to analyze and optimize stochastic flow lines

Helber, Stefan; Schimmelpfeng, Katja; Stolletz, Raik; … - 2008

This paper presents a linear programming approach to analyze and optimize flow lines with limited buffer capacities and stochastic processing times. The basic idea is to solve a huge but simple linear program that models an entire simulation run of a multi-stage production process in discrete...

The method of endogenous gridpoints for solving dynamic stochastic optimization problems

Carroll, Christopher D. - 2005

This paper introduces a method for solving numerical dynamic stochastic optimization problems that avoids rootfinding operations. The idea is applicable to many microeconomic and macroeconomic problems, including life cycle, buffer-stock, and stochastic growth problems. Software is provided.
