We show that the countervailing power possessed by a large retailer can lead to an increase in retail prices for consumers and a loss in social welfare. We consider a set-up with vertical contracting between a supplier and a retail industry where a large retailer competes with smaller retailers...

“After inanimate matter and “biophysics”, physics now applies its methods and tools to the understanding of human and animal groups. Its explanatory and predictive power can help understanding many complex problems: collective motion (spontaneous formation of pedestrian lines, fish schools, road...

We use Kantar WorldPanel Homescan data to examine the incidence of the French soft-drink tax on consumer prices and welfare. The French soda tax is a unit excise tax of 0.076 Euro/Liter on sugar-sweetened beverages, which was implemented in January 2012. We first construct theoretically founded...

For linear inverse problems $Y=\mathsf{A}\mu+\xi$, it is classical to recover the unknown function $\mu$ by an iterative scheme $(\widehat \mu^{(m)}, m=0,1,\ldots)$ and to provide $\widehat\mu^{(\tau)}$ as a result, where $\tau$ is some stopping rule. Stopping should be decided adaptively, that is...

The Kimura Equations was introduced in the 60's by the Japanese geneticist Motoo Kimura and is considered one of the most important models in population genetics. It is a degenerated partial differential equation of drift diffusion type modelling the evolution of the probability distribution among...
