چکیده
Suppose that infinitesimal firms have identical variable costs but there is heterogeneity in their fixed costs. Regardless of the ordering of entry and exit, fixed costs will be minimized for a given industry size. Journal of Economic Literature Classifications: L11 & L13

Alternating fixed-point algorithm for stereophonic acoustic echo cancellation - Vision, Image and Signal Processing, IEE Proceedings-
A novel algorithm for use in stereophonic acoustic echo cancellation is introduced. The alternating fixed-point structure of the algorithm descends each of the channels alternatively and avoids nonuniqueness in the solutions by employing interand intra-channel orthogonal projections. For a noisy environment, the algorithm is shown to provide improved misalignment performance and echo cancellati...
متن کاملOn Infinitesimal Conformal Transformations of the Tangent Bundles with the Generalized Metric
Let be an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold, and be its tangent bundle with the lift metric. Then every infinitesimal fiber-preserving conformal transformation induces an infinitesimal homothetic transformation on . Furthermore, the correspondence gives a homomorphism of the Lie algebra of infinitesimal fiber-preserving conformal transformations on onto the Lie algebra of infinitesimal ...
متن کاملCalculating cost efficiency using prices dependent on time via approximate method
In the traditional cost-efficiency model, the information about each decision unit includes inputs, outputs, and the input prices are fixed and specific. In practice, the price of the inputs often fluctuates at different times, and these prices for the decision-making unit are time-dependent. By the traditional method, the efficiency of decision units is impossible in the presence of time-depen...
متن کاملPluripotential Theory, Semigroups and Boundary Behavior of Infinitesimal Generators in Strongly Convex Domains
We characterize infinitesimal generators of semigroups of holomorphic selfmaps of strongly convex domains using the pluricomplex Green function and the pluricomplex Poisson kernel. Moreover, we study boundary regular fixed points of semigroups. Among other things, we characterize boundary regular fixed points both in terms of the boundary behavior of infinitesimal generators and in terms of plu...
متن کاملOrganizational Form and Product Market Competition Are Focused Firms Weak Competitors?
We examine product market behavior of retailers to determine if diversified or focused firms behave as weak competitors and are perceived as such. We do so in three distinct ways. We first test pricing predictions of a simple switching cost model of market competition, that weaker firms charge higher prices in equilibrium (and sacrifice market share). Not surprisingly, we find higher average pr...
