TL;DR: A matheuristic algorithm based on the corridor method is presented, to develop a general algorithm for a number of variants of the CFLP, which exploits solutions obtained via Lagrangean relaxation and builds corridors around such solutions via the introduction of constraints around the incumbent solution.
Abstract: The Capacitated Facility Location Problem (CFLP) is a well-known optimisation problem with applications in a number of fields, such as distribution system planning, telecommunication network design...

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors link the profitability of diversification with the existence of transaction costs, as predicted by resource theory, and show that transaction costs strongly influence diversification dynamics.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the impact of knowledge externalities across players in an apprenticeship relationship, and show that the inefficiencies arise from the expert's artificially slowing down the rate of knowledge transfer rather than reducing the total amount of knowledge eventually transferred.
Abstract: An expert must train a novice. The novice initially has no cash, so he can only pay the expert with the accumulated surplus from his production. At any time, the novice can leave the relationship with his acquired knowledge and produce on his own. The sole reason he does not is the prospect of learning in future periods. The profit-maximizing relationship is structured as an apprenticeship, in which all production generated during training is used to compensate the expert. Knowledge transfer takes a simple form. In the first period, the expert gifts the novice a positive level of knowledge, which is independent of the players' discount rate. After that, the novice's total value of knowledge grows at the players' discount rate until all knowledge has been transferred. The inefficiencies that arise from this contract are caused by the expert's artificially slowing down the rate of knowledge transfer rather than by her reducing the total amount of knowledge eventually transferred. We show that these inefficiencies are larger the more patient the players are. Finally, we study the impact of knowledge externalities across players.

TL;DR: This paper showed that recourse mortgages, by discouraging default, magnify the impact of nominal rigidities and cause deeper and more persistent recessions, and this mechanism can account for up to 40% of the recovery gap during the Great Recession between the U.S. and European economies with recourse mortgage systems.
Abstract: We show that mortgage recourse systems, by discouraging default, magnify the impact of nominal rigidities and cause deeper and more persistent recessions. This mechanism can account for up to 40% of the recovery gap during the Great Recession between the U.S. (mostly a non-recourse economy) and European economies with recourse mortgage systems. Recourse mortgages also generate larger welfare inequality following credit shocks. General equilibrium effects cause most of the differences across mortgage systems. Liquid assets play a larger role in explaining default with recourse mortgages.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore a different type of hypothesis based on the concept of affordance landscape, emphasizing the ability of living beings to prefigure landscapes of potential affordances in order to reach specific goals.
Abstract: A significant part of the current literature considers the representational abilities as the core ingredient of decision-making about innovation. In this chapter, we explore a different type of hypothesis based on the concept of affordance landscape, emphasizing the ability of living beings to prefigure landscapes of potential affordances in order to reach specific goals. The notion of affordance landscape helps us to shed light on the ability of living beings to reconceive, through top-down processes, the existing affordances to discover new uses of artifacts.
