Als Manuskript gedruckt Technische Universität Dresden Herausgeber: Der Rektor Models with Variable Strip Widths for Two-Dimensional Two-Stage Cutting

We consider several formulations of two-dimensional two-stage constrained cutting, where the number of variables is polynomial. Some new models with variable strip widths are developed. Symmetries in the search space are eliminated by lexicographic constraints which are already known from the literature. However, previously known models with fixed strip widths are shown to be more effective. Th...

This paper provides a simple model of corruption dynamics with the ratchet effect. Corrupt officials have ex post the incentive to price discriminate entrepreneurs based on the entry decisions made in an earlier period. The inability of government officials to commit to future money demands induces entrepreneurs to delay entry in order to receive a discount in the permit price later. Even thoug...

To clarify the causal links between financial activity and economic growth, three theoretical models are analyzed and a structural equation path models is estimated. In the modeling part, poverty traps result from large fixed costs or high proportions of real investment to run a financial sector. Human capital allocated to financial activities will improve long-run levels but may reduce growth ...
