A Unifying model of strategic network formation
Olaizola Ortega, María Norma
; Valenciano Llovera, Federico (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2015-02-17)
We provide a model that merges two basic models of strategic network formation and incorporates them as extreme cases: Jackson and Wolinsky' s connections model based on bilateral formation of links, and Bala and Goyal' s ... -
Efficiency vs. Stability in a Mixed Network Formation Model
Olaizola Ortega, María Norma; Valenciano Llovera, Federico (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, 2015-03-26)
The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, the incomplete results relative to effciency in a transitional model introduced in a previous paper, distinguishing two types of links, strong or doubly-supported and weak or ... -
From bilateral two-way to unilateral one-way flow link-formation
Olaizola Ortega, María Norma; Valenciano Llovera, Federico (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, 2014-11-26)
We provide a model that bridges de gap between the simplest variation of two benchmark models of strategic network formation: Bala and Goyal s one-way ow model without decay, where links can be unilaterally formed, and a ... -
Geographical mobility and the labour market
(Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I. UPV-EHU, 2015-05)This paper studies the e ect of home-owners' migration costs on migration and unemployment in an economy where workers move both for work- and nonwork- related reasons. To this end, a search model with heterogeneous locations ... -
Human Capital and Market Size
(Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU I, 2016-07)This paper studies how the size of the labour market aff ects workers' decision to invest in human capital. We consider a model of mismatch where firms rank workers according to their level of skills. The matching process ... -
Network formation under institutional constraints
Olaizola Ortega, María Norma; Valenciano Llovera, Federico (2011-05)
We study the effects of institutional constraints on stability, efficiency and network formation. An exogenous "societal cover" consisting of a collection of possibly overlapping subsets covering the set of players specifies ... -
Relocation and Investment in R&D by Firms
; Garzón San Felipe, María Begoña (2011)
The literature on foreign direct investment has analyzed firms’ location decisions when they invest in R&D to reduce production costs. Such firms may set up new plants in other developed countries while maintaining their ... -
The impact of liberalizing cost-saharing on basic models of network formation
Olaizola Ortega, María Norma; Valenciano Llovera, Federico (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2015-09-12)
This paper studies the impact of "liberalizing " the cost-sharing of links on some basic models of network formation. This is done in a setting where both doubly supported and singly supported links are possible, and which ... -
Timing of Wage Setting when Firms Invest in R&D
; Campo Corredera, María Luz (2003-12)
In this paper, we analyze the effect that the timing of wage setting (i. e. whether wages set sequentially or simultaneously) has on the investment in R&D of firms, when that investment increases the productivity of labor, ... -
Unilateral vs. Bilateral link-formation: Bridging the gap
Olaizola Ortega, María Norma; Valenciano Llovera, Federico (Departamento de Fundamentos del Análisis Económico I, UPV/EHU, 2014-05-28)
We provide a model that bridges the gap between two benchmark models of strategic network formation: Jackson and Wolinsky' s model based on bilateral formation of links, and Bala and Goyal's two-way fl ow model, where links ...
