This thesis has two objectives. The first objective is to better understand the value of energy efficiency in buildings and its relationship to secondary market real estate prices. The second objective is to understand the cost of the implied insurance inc ...
We show that Li's criterion equivalent to the Riemann hypothesis, i.e., the statement that the sums k(n) = Sigma(rho)(1-(1-1/rho)(n)) over zeros of the Riemann xi-function and the derivatives lambda(n) equivalent to 1/(n-1)! d(n)/dz(n)(z(n-1) ln (xi(z)))ve ...
A new approach for the estimation of bid-rent functions for residential location choice is proposed. The method is based on the bid-auction approach and considers that the expected maximum bid of the auction is a latent variable that can be related to obse ...
While the question of the specification of spatial weight matrix is now largely discussed in the spatial econometrics literature, the definition of distance has attracted less attention. The choice of the distance measure is often glossed over, with the ul ...
