This paper proposed a novel long-distance combined transmission system, in which LNG (liquefied natural gas) is transported in the pipeline and electricity is transmitted through a high-temperature superconducting cable refrigerated by LNG. Through this system, electricity and LNG could be...

Uncertainties are intrinsic features of dynamic economic systems, and this paper considers the dynamic implications of factor endowment (labor, capital) uncertainties for a small growing trading economy. The stochastic growth models presented extend the open neoclassical two-sector growth model...

type="main" <title type="main">ABSTRACT</title> <p>We investigate odd-lot trades in equity markets. Odd lots are increasingly used in algorithmic and high-frequency trading, but are not reported to the consolidated tape or in databases such as TAQ. In our sample, the median number of odd-lot trades is 24% but in some stocks...</p>

In this paper, by using the theories and methods of ecology and ordinary differential equation, an ecological model with impulsive control strategy and distributed time delay is established. By using the theories of impulsive equation, small amplitude perturbation skills and comparison...

We examine how fragmentation is affecting market quality in US equity markets. We use newly available trade reporting facilities (TRFs) data to measure fragmentation, and we use a variety of empirical approaches to compare execution quality and efficiency of stocks with more and less fragmented...

In the emerging age of electronic commerce, it is of paramount importance to design mechanisms that ensure timely and reliable transactions in cyberspace. This is an important problem given the bursty nature of Internet congestion, which leads to large variability in the risk and cost of...

We seek to isolate in the laboratory factors that encourage and discourage the sunk cost fallacy. Subjects play a computer game in which they decide whether to keep digging for treasure on an island or to sink a cost (which will turn out to be either high or low) to move to another island. The...

A distinguishing feature of the information era is the saliency of people's attention as a scarce resource. Unlike an earlier time when information was a valuable resource, its easy availability has shifted the focus to the limited bandwidth that people can devote to ubiquitous media and news....
