Country size and tax competition for foreign direct investment
- Journal of Public Economics
, 1999
"... We analyse tax competition between two countries of unequal size trying to attract a foreign-owned monopolist. When national governments have only a lump-sum profit tax (subsidy) at their disposal, but face exogenous and identical transport costs for imports, then both countries will be willing to o ..."

to offer a subsidy to the firm. At the same time, the firm prefers to locate in the larger market where it will be able to charge a higher producer price. In equilibrium the large country receives the investment and may even be able to charge a positive tax, if the difference in the sizes of the national
Recovering Preferences from a Dual-Market Locational Equilibrium.” Manuscript
, 2007
"... ABSTRACT: This paper develops a new structural estimator that uses the properties of a market equilibrium, together with information on households and their observed location choices, to recover horizontally differentiated preferences for a vector of local public goods. The estimation is consistent ..."

Ordered Search and Equilibrium Obfuscation
, 2008
"... Abstract. This paper demonstrates the incentives for an oligopolist to obfuscate by deliberately increasing the cost with which consumers can locate its product and price. Consumers are allowed to choose the optimal order in which to search rms and
rms are able to inuence this order through their c ..."

Assessing the Productivity of Public Capital with a Locational Equilibrium Model
, 2000
"... This paper employs Roback’s locational-equilibrium model of public-goods pricing, crosssectional data from the Census of Population and Housing, and SMSA-level estimates of public capital stocks in order to examine the productive contribution of public capital. I find that public capital has a small ..."

Economic Geography, Industry Location and Trade
- The Evidence”, The World Economy
, 1998
"... General-equilibrium models based on increasing returns, product differentiation and monopolistic competition have attained a prominent position in trade theory and, more recently, in economic geography. This paper surveys empirical studies on issues raised by the new wave of theoretical thinking. Th ..."

Recovering Preferences for Public Goods from a DualMarket Locational Equilibrium
, 2006
"... This research extends the existing literature on revealed preference models of location choice by developing a “dual-market ” sorting framework that uses information on households and their location choices in the housing and labor markets to infer their demand for local public goods. It also recogn ..."

Embedding Consumer Taste for Location into a Structural Model of Equilibrium
, 2005
"... Given that brands (products) are location specific in terms of cover-age of retail stores, we allow consumers to have preferences over location and products to carry distribution costs, alongside preferences and costs over other observable and unobservable product characteristics. We em-bed these co ..."

points of first order complex differential equations consisting of the iteration of rational func-tions. Rational functions which we deal with have the unit circle or the extended real line as Julia sets. Properties of Julia sets and the Euler-Jacobi formula lead to alternate locations of equilibrium

, 2008
"... This paper identifies two notions of substitutes for auction and equilibrium analysis. Weak substitutes, the usual price-theory notion, guarantees monotonicity of tâtonnement processes and convergence of clock auctions to a pseudo-equilibrium, but only strong substitutes, which treats each unit trad ..."
