This paper studies a one-shot, simultaneous-move bargaining game. Each bargainer makes a partial commitment (a share of the unit size cake that she would like to get), which can later be revoked at some cost to the player. The payoffs are defined, in part, by the Nash bargaining solution, where the feasible utility set is affected by the players' partial commitments. Under certain assumptions o...

the nain and ashin ophiolites are located in northeastern isfahan province, in western central-east iranian microplate. pillow lavas are one of the most significant cretaceous rock units. the lower partial melting degree in mantle peridotites of ashin ophiolite, and the derived melt by melting their clinopyroxene caused a more basic (basalt) and enriched nature for the ashin pillow lavas, where...

A previous research demonstrates the profitability of partial refund policies in a monopoly setting, there is a certain lack of ubiquity in practice about these refunds in competitive service markets. This raises the question of how a partial refund policy may work and whether it is even sustainable in a competitive environment. This study investigates how competition may influence the profitab...

the solubility of co2 in the primary, secondary, tertiary and sterically hindered amine aqueous solutions at various conditions was studied. in the present work, the modified kent-eisenberg (m-ke), the extended debye-hückel (e-dh) and the pitzer models were employed to study the solubility of co2 in amine aqueous solutions. two explicit equations are presented to evaluate the concentration of h...

A method is described for the simultaneous measurement of partial specific volumes and molecular weights of proteins and other substances by sedimentation equilibrium experiments in Hz0 and D20 (or D2018) solutions. In effect, the method is a differential sedimentation equilibrium technique based upon the change produced in the equilibrium concentration distribution when the density of the solu...

I examine, in a controlled, experimental laboratory setting, the acceptance of a secondary currency when a primary currency already circulates in an economy. The underlying model is an indivisible good / indivisible money, dual currency search model similar to that in Kiyotaki and Wright (1993) and Craig and Waller (2000). In such models, there are two pure Nash equilibria total acceptance or t...

In this paper we develop an analytical framework for the study of electrochemical impedance of mixed ionic and electronic conductors (MIEC). The framework is based on non-equilibrium thermodynamics and it features the coupling of electrochemical reactions, surface transport and bulk transport processes. We utilize this work to analyze two-dimensional systems relevant for fuel cell science via t...

In this short note, we investigate extensions of Nash equilibria when players have some uncertainties upon their payoffs mappings, the behavior (or the type, number or any other characteristics) of their opponents. These solutions are qualified either as robust, ambiguous, partially specified or with uncertainty aversion, depending on the context. We provide a simple necessary and sufficient co...
