Heterogeneity in decentralized asset markets

We study a canonical model of decentralized exchange for a durable good or asset, where agents are assumed to have time-varying, heterogeneous utility types. Whereas the existing literature has focused on the special case of two types, we allow agents' uti ...

Improving hydropower flexibility by synergizing independently managed utilities

Giovanni De Cesare, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Sabine Chamoun, Vincent Gaertner, Steve Crettenand

Increasing the flexibility of hydropower allows operators to produce at optimal time ranges, not only dependent on the demand flow but also on the price trends. However, the possibility to improve hydropower flexibility can be hindered when assets are mana ...

Equilibrium analysis in multi-echelon supply chain with multi-dimensional utilities of inertial players

Naoufel Cheikhrouhou, Matthias Gurtner, Gajanan Bhanudas Panchal

In a supply chain, the importance of information elicitation from the supply chain players is vital to design supply chain network. The rationality and self-centredness of these players causes the information asymmetry in the supply chain and thus situatio ...
