Non-constant discounting, social welfare and endogenous growth with pollution externalities
We analyze the effect of non-constant discounting on economic growth and social welfare in an endogenous growth model with pollution externalities. For ti...

In this paper, we focus on the problem that has been described in the second international nurse rostering competition: a personalized nurse scheduling prob...
BibTeX reference
In this paper, we describe an algorithm for the personalized nurse scheduling problem. We focus on the deterministic counterpart of the specific problem t...

We consider the solution of derivative-free optimization problems with continuous, integer, discrete and categorical variables in the context of costly black...
BibTeX referenceExistence and uniqueness of optimal dynamic pricing and advertising controls without concavity
We consider a pricing and advertising dynamic-optimization problem where the goodwill dynamics evolve à la Nerlove-Arrow. The firm maximizes its profit ov...

This work studies the strategic impact of a region's investment in adaptation measures on the equilibrium outcomes of a transboundary pollution dynamic gam...
BibTeX reference
We consider a dynamic game model of ride-sourcing, where a large number of private car owners provide rides to randomly appearing customers. Free drivers c...

Counterfeiting, which is defined as illegally copying genuine goods with a brand name, is a widespread phenomenon and is imposing a huge cost on owners of tr...
BibTeX reference
We examine the stability of international environmental agreements when they include both adaptation and mitigation policies. We assume that adaptation req...
