An assignment of students to schools displays zero-segregation if all schools have the same distribution of the different types of students (ethnic, geographical, gender). We axiomatize the choice of an optimally desegregated assignment under arbitrary capacity constraints. The celebrated Consistency axiom, together with standard rational choice requirements, identify the choice rule minimizing a canonical index of pro-portional fairness: the entropy of the assignment matrix. This is an alternative vindication of the Mutual Information index of segregation recently characterized in Frankel and Volij(2011).
A similar result holds in the capacity-constrained extension of the bipartite rationing model: there we must minimize the entropy of the rationing matrix augmented by individual deficits.

Various members of the class of weighted insurance premiums and risk capital allocation rules have been researched from a number of perspectives. Corresponding formulas in the case of parametric families of distributions have been derived, and they have played a pivotal role when establishing parametric statistical inference in the area. Nonparametric inference results have also ...

The direct relationship between thermodynamic entropy and economic scarcity is only valid for a thermodynamically isolated economy. References to the second law of thermodynamics in economics within the context of scarcity ignore the fact that the earth is not an isolated system. The earth interacts with external sources and sinks of entropy and the resulting ...

The Markov-Switching Dynamic Factor Model (MS-DFM) has been used in different applications, notably in the business cycle analysis. When the cross-sectional dimension of data is high, the Maximum Likelihood estimation becomes unfeasible due to the excessive number of parameters. In this case, the MS-DFM can be estimated in two steps, which means that in the ...

We study ex-post fairness and efficiency in the object allocation problem. A matching is individually
fair if it minimizes the number of envying agents, we call it minimal envy matching, and conditional
on being minimal envy also minimizes the number of envying agents in a reduced problem, we call it
minimal envy-2 matching. A matching is socially fair ...

This paper axiomatically studies bankruptcy problems with nontransferable utility by focusing on generalizations of consistency and the contested garment principle. On the one hand, we discuss several consistency notions and introduce the class of parametric bankruptcy rules which contains the proportional rule, the constrained relative equal awards rule, and the constrained relative equal losses rule. ...

The institutional aspect of post-crisis banking regulation reform (Basel III) remains unsettled, and as such undermines regulators’ efforts to shape a seamless platform for international financial intermediation. The lack of global acceptance of the Basel III standards amid the internationalization of banking activities is one of the main reasons for regulatory asymmetries which are difficult ...

Социально-экономическое развитие территории – от отдельного муниципалитета до региона, страны и межгосударственных коалиций – определяется огромным количеством факторов, условий и обстоятельств. История, природа, географическое положение, ранее принятые и реализованные решения в тесном взаимодействии с культурными особенностями населения образуют колоссальный веер возможностей и траекторий такого развития.
В этой связи чужой успешный опыт часто мало применим на практике. Он, скорее, показывает нам, в каких направлениях можно развиваться и какие возможные подходы целесообразно рассматривать при выборе своего пути. Например, сегодня ...
