The role of the United States in international negotiations, including Kyoto, has always been central as an economic and a political power and also as a polluter. In the absence so far of federal regulation, different states were very dynamic. Since the election of President Obama, energy and...

In this paper we consider a class of BSDEs with drivers of quadratic growth, on a stochastic basis generated by continuous local martingales. We first derive the Markov property of a forward-backward system (FBSDE) if the generating martingale is a strong Markov process. Then we establish the...

This paper examines the evolution of wealth distribution in France during the urbanization process of the nineteenth century, based on a comprehensive dataset of individual inheritances. It presents a spatial decomposition between rural and urban areas, distinguishing Paris from the rest of...

Since the end of the eighties, the European electric sector has been progressively liberalised. This phenomenon has given a growing part to the financial markets in the valuation and the control of the firm's activities. With the privatisation, the management's efficiency has become the main...

It is not known to what extent welfare measures result from seasonal and geographical price differences rather than from differences in living standards across households. Using data from Rwanda in 1983, we show that the change in mean living standard indicators caused by local and seasonal...

In any fee-for-service system, doctors may be encouraged to increase the number of services (private activity) they provide to receive a higher income. Studying private activity determinants helps to predict doctors’ provision of care. In the context of strong feminization and heterogeneity in...

We consider the probabilistic numerical scheme for fully nonlinear PDEs suggested in [12], and show that it can be introduced naturally as a combination of Monte Carlo and finite differences scheme without appealing to the theory of backward stochastic differential equations. Our first main...

La gestion du bien d'une personne vulnérable peut être interne ou externalisée. La société civile s'avère être un outil utile d'externalisation de la gestion du patrimoine de l'incapable. Ce transfert des pouvoirs de gestion vers la société civile offre aux personnes vulnérables...
