Recent research on firm level productivity and organizational performance has highlighted the importance of complementarity among organizational practices. A number of studies have developed methods to test the existence of complementarity among such organizational variables. However, despite these advances in the study of industrial organization and management, our understanding of the complem...

It is known that complementarity functions play an important role in dealing with complementarity problems. The most well known complementarity problem is the symmetric cone complementarity problem (SCCP) which includes nonlinear complementarity problem (NCP), semidefinite complementarity problem (SDCP), and second-order cone complementarity problem (SOCCP) as special cases. Moreover, there is ...

In this paper, we propose a new linear complementarity problem named as bi-linear complementarity problem (BLCP) and the method for solving BLCP. In addition, the algorithm for error estimation of BLCP is also given. Numerical experiments show that the algorithm is efficient. Keywords—Bi-linear complementarity problem, Linear complementarity problem, Extended linear complementarity problem, Err...

We consider the Fold Complementarity Problem, which is one of the recent subjects in complementarity theory. It is a mathematical model used in economics in the study of distributive problems (cf. [25], [5]). A particular case is the k-Fold Complementarity Problem, studied using a variant of the notion of Z-function by A. Villar [25]. In this way, Villar obtained the solution of this problem as...

We use a dissipative particle dynamic simulation to investigate the effects of shape complementarity on the protein-protein interactions. By monitoring different kinds of protein shape-complementarity modes, we gave a clear mechanism to reveal the role of the shape complementarity in the protein-protein interactions, i.e., when the two proteins with shape complementarity approach each other, th...
