We construct a competitive model of innovation and growth under constant returns to scale. Previous models of growth under constant cannot model technological innovation. Current models of endogenous innovation rely on the interplay between increasing returns and monopolistic markets. In fact, established wisdom claims monopoly power to be instrumental for innovation and sees the non-rivalrous ...

Innovations in information and communication technology (ICT) have dramatically influenced the nature and quality of government-to-constituent interactions all over the world. However the underlying structural, organizational and institutional components upon which technological innovation is superimposed are as widely divergent as the cultures from which they derive. As a result, the successes...

Efficient delivery of light into nanoscale volumes by converting free photons into localized charge-density oscillations (surface plasmons) enables technological innovation in various fields from biosensing to photovoltaics and quantum computing. Conventional plasmonic nanostructures are designed as nanoscale analogs of radioantennas and waveguides. Here, we discuss an alternative approach for ...

The history of antitrust policy in the US as it relates to technological innovation exhibits major swings every few decades between favoring concentration and favoring deconcentration. This paper sketches for each period the contending ideas that frame antitrust-technology policy debates, the salience of these ideas in the larger antitrust policy process, the institutions for agenda-setting and...

C. Merle Crawford is a professor of marketing at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor; Gerard J. Tellis, formerly a sales development manager for Johnson & Johnson, is a research assistant and Ph.D. candidate at Michigan. This exhaustive listing and classification of the literature and arguments on technological innovation contributes toward the discussion of an issue vital to the United Sta...

This paper offers insights into the diffusion and impact of artificial intelligence in science. More specifically, we show that neural network-based technology meets essential properties emerging technologies scientific realm. It is novel, because it shows discontinuous innovations originating domain put to new uses many application domains; quick growing, its dimensions being subject rapid cha...

submerged breakwaters are one of the shore protective structures. any discontinuity in these breakwaters causes changes on current parameters including speed and water surface profile. in this paper, discontinuous submerged breakwaters were modelled to investigate the changes in the wave and flow pattern.to investigate the phenomenon, three models including a shore with constant slope, a shore ...

this paper deals with the boundary value problem involving the differential equationbegin{equation*}    ell y:=-y''+qy=lambda y, end{equation*} subject to the standard boundary conditions along with the following discontinuity  conditions at a point $ain (0,pi)$ begin{equation*}    y(a+0)=a_1 y(a-0),quad y'(a+0)=a_1^{-1}y'(a-0)+a_2 y(a-0),end{equation*}where $q(x),  a_1 , a_2$ are  real, $qin l...
