In industrial resource allocation problems, an initial planning stage may solve a nominal problem instance and subsequent recovery intervene to repair inefficiencies infeasibilities due uncertainty, e.g. machine failures job processing time variations. this context, we investigate the minimum makespan scheduling problem, a.k.a. P||Cmax, under uncertainty. We propose two-stage robust approach wh...

If there are more than two firms, prices may be higher under price competition than under quantity competition. This will be the case if quality differences are large and goods are complements.

Then, granted convex preferences and technologies, the core is proven nonempty. In fact, under natural assumptions, a specific, computable core solution comes in terms of shadow prices on the said aggregates. Such prices may, in large ...
