This paper proposes a new class of nonlinear interval models for interval-valued time series (ITS). By matching the interval model with interval observations, we develop a nonlinearminimum-distance estimation method for the proposed models, and establish the asymptotictheory for the proposed...

We explore buyback contracts in a supplier–retailer supply chain where the retailer faces a price-dependent downward-sloping demand curve subject to uncertainty. Differentiated from the existing literature,this work focuses on analytically examining how the uncertainty level embedded in market...
