Recently, Cui et al. (2018) investigated the economics of line-sitting, where a customer could hire a line-sitter to wait for her, and the line-sitting fee is paid at the completion of service. Usually, it is believed that the line-sitting firm benefits in the pre-commitment payment method, in which the customer still pays a pre-specified amount of fee for service even if the actual waiting time is less than the pre-committed wait. By comparing two payment mechanisms, we find that, surprisingly, under the optimal line-sitting rate, the revenue of firm worsens under pre-commitment case, but a better customer welfare can be obtained. 相似文献

This paper studies pricing strategies of a seller with budget constraints facing two types of strategic consumers with different search costs, and proposes three pricing strategies to motivate all consumers to visit his shop. These are the basic price strategy, differentiated compensation strategy and an improved differentiated compensation strategy. Based on the rational expectations paradigm, we characterize the rational expectations equilibrium in the game and propose a basic pricing strategy. In order to address the interplay between price and demand, we further propose a differentiated compensation strategy to improve the basic model. We then compare the differentiated compensation strategy to the basic pricing strategy when both are feasible. We find that selection of the optimal strategy is independent of composition of consumers but is dependent on the seller’s budget level and the difference between the two search costs. If the budget is large enough and the difference between the search costs is small enough, a differentiated compensation strategy can further improve the seller’s profitability. In addition to these findings, we first propose an improved differentiated compensation strategy to further enhance the firm’s profit. We find that the optimal strategy is to implement the improved differentiated compensation strategy when all three strategies are feasible. Interestingly, the firm may benefit from paying a high compensation to the consumers. 相似文献

We discuss Halpern’s convergence for nonexpansive mappings in Hilbert spaces. We prove that one of the conditions in [R. Wittmann,
Approximation of fixed points of nonexpansive mappings, Arch. Math. (Basel), 58 (1992), 486–491] is the weakest sufficient
condition among the conditions known to us. We also improve a necessary condition, which is close to Wittmann’s. This is one
step to solve the problem raised by Reich in 1974 and 1983.

In this work, we investigate relations between Malcev’s matrices of a torsion-free group G of finite rank and Malcev’s matrices of groups Hom(R,G) and Hom(G,R), where G is a locally free group and R is a torsion-free group of rank 1. 相似文献

Michael Bergmann has argued that internalist accounts of justification face an insoluble dilemma. This paper begins with an explanation of Bergmann??s dilemma. Next, I review some recent attempts to answer the dilemma, which I argue are insufficient to overcome it. The solution I propose presents an internalist account of justification through direct acquaintance. My thesis is that direct acquaintance can provide subjective epistemic assurance without falling prey to the quagmire of difficulties that Bergmann alleges all internalist accounts of justification cannot surmount. 相似文献

We prove Kantorovich’s theorem on Newton’s method using a convergence analysis which makes clear, with respect to Newton’s
method, the relationship of the majorant function and the non-linear operator under consideration. This approach enables us
to drop out the assumption of existence of a second root for the majorant function, still guaranteeing Q-quadratic convergence rate and to obtain a new estimate of this rate based on a directional derivative of the derivative of the majorant function. Moreover, the majorant function does not have to be defined beyond its first root for obtaining
convergence rate results.

In 1969 Andrunakievich asked whether one gets a ring without nonzero nil left ideals from an arbitrary ring R by factoring out the ideal A(R) which is the sum of all nil left ideals of R. Recently, it was shown that this problem is equivalent to Koethe’s problem. In this context one may consider the chain of
ideals, which starts with A
1(R) = A(R) ⊆ A
2(R), where A
2(R)/A
1(R) = A(R/A
1(R)), and extends by repeating this process. We study the properties of this chain and show that, assuming a negative solution
of Koethe’s problem, this chain can terminate at any given ordinal number. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the relationship between commission rates and a firm’s success within a corporate
strategic planning simulation experiment. Teams of students are assigned to the role of managers of a firm within a competitive
market situation. They have the task to experience the complex situation in which they act as managers to increase the performance
of a firm by setting specific parameters. Our most interesting parameter is the commission rate. The Marketing Game considers
a reasonably complex and realistic situation for the participants. We examine to what extent subjects succeed in increasing
a firm’s turnover and profit by varying the commission rates. 相似文献

A contextual and comparative analysis shows that Dedekind and Frege do not understand the terms “logic” and “arithmetic” in the same way. More specifically the meaning and the scope of the corresponding concepts are essentially different for them. Consequently Dedekind and Frege have different conceptions of the relationship between arithmetic and logic. 相似文献

Recently, Ayse Sonmez [A. Sonmez, On paracompactness in cone metric spaces, Appl. Math. Lett. 23 (2010) 494–497] proved that a cone metric space is paracompact when the underlying cone is normal. Also, very recently, Kieu Phuong Chi and Tran Van An [K.P. Chi, T. Van An, Dugundji’s theorem for cone metric spaces, Appl. Math. Lett. (2010) doi:10.1016/j.aml.2010.10.034] proved Dugundji’s extension theorem for the normal cone metric space. The aim of this paper is to prove this in the frame of the tvs-cone spaces in which the cone does not need to be normal. Examples are given to illustrate the results. 相似文献

We give a new proof of the theorem that Amitsur’s complex for purely inseparable field extensions has vanishing homology in
dimensions higher than 2. This is accomplished by computing the kernel and cokernel of the logarithmic derivativet →Dt/t mapping the multiplicative Amitsur complex to the acyclic additive one (D is a derivation of the extension field).

We provide estimates on the Bartnik mass of constant mean curvature surfaces which are diffeomorphic to spheres and have positive mean curvature. We prove that the Bartnik mass is bounded from above by the Hawking mass and a new notion we call the asphericity mass. The asphericity mass is defined by applying Hamilton’s modified Ricci flow and depends only upon the restricted metric of the surface and not on its mean curvature. The theorem is proven by studying a class of asymptotically flat Riemannian manifolds foliated by surfaces satisfying Hamilton’s modified Ricci flow with prescribed scalar curvature. Such manifolds were first constructed by the first author in her dissertation conducted under the supervision of M. T. Wang. We make a further study of this class of manifolds which we denote Ham3, bounding the ADM masses of such manifolds and analyzing the rigid case when the Hawking mass of the inner surface of the manifold agrees with its ADM mass. 相似文献
