Scientists Create Open Dataset for Studying Concentration
A team of Russian researchers, including scientists from HSE University–St Petersburg, has developed the first open multimodal dataset containing recordings of brain activity, heart function, and video observations to help researchers understand what happens in the human brain during deep concentration. In the future, the dataset could accelerate the development of neural interfaces, rehabilitation technologies, and AI systems. The article has been published in Scientific Data.

‘Science Is Universal-It Knows No Borders
Fuad Aleskerov, Tenured Professor and Director of the International Centre of Decision Choice and Analysis at HSE University, together with his colleagues, has developed methods of network analysis in bibliometrics that have made it possible to identify patterns in the appearance and citation of publications in academic journals, as well as their influence on each other. When one or a number of studies are frequently cited by a wide range of journals, this is an indicator that the research is of high quality. By contrast, extensive cross-citation within a limited group of journals increases the likelihood of identifying a network of predatory publications.

Mechanisms of Endogenous Allocation of Firms and Workers in Urban Area: from Monocentric to Polycentric City

P. 360–383.
Sidorov A.

The purpose of paper is to investigate how the interplay of trade, commuting and communication costs shapes economy at both inter-regional and intra-urban level. Specifically, we study how trade affects the internal structure of cities and how decentralizing the production and consumption of goods in secondary employment centers allows firms located in a large city to maintain their predominance. The feature of approach is using of two-dimensional city pattern instead of the "long narrow city'' model.

High transportation costs and the narrowness of the local market limit the development of Arctic cities, especially remote ones. However, specific demand for unique goods and services (including the so-called development services) and production of goods and services that are impractical/impossible to deliver from more southern areas (especially in the early stages of development) due ...

Trade Costs, Regional Inequality, and the Home Market Effect
Kichko S., Spatial Economic Analysis 2018 Vol. 13 No. 4 P. 387–399
We develop an economic geography framework with positive trade costs in both manufacturing and traditional sectors, mobile skilled workers, and unequal shares of unskilled labour in regions. We show that partial agglomeration always features the home market effect (HME) regardless of whether regions trade only the manufacturing good or both. Moreover, spatial factor mobility is ...

How do trade and communication costs shape the spatial organization of firms?
Kichko S., Thisse J., Gokan T., / Series WP BRP "ECONOMICS". 2018. No. 191/EC/2018.
We show how trade and communication costs interact to shape the way firms organize their activities across space. We consider the following three organizational types: (i) integrated firms in which all activities are conducted at the same location, (ii) horizontal firms, which operate several plants producing the same good at different locations, and (iii) vertical ...

Transportation Costs and the Great Divergence
Azarnert L. V., Macroeconomic Dynamics 2016 Vol. 20 P. 214–228
This work shows the asymmetric effect of the reduction in transportation costs across different sectors in the process of the Great Divergence. Specifically, the analysis indicates that reductions in transportation costs of industrial goods enhance convergence of the growth rates of trading economies. In contrast, reductions in transportation costs of non-industrial goods contribute to a ...

Pro-competitive effects and harmful trade liberalization in multi-country world
Igor Bykadorov, Ellero A., Funari S. et al., / Series 6/2015 "Working Paper Series". 2015. No. 6.
We study a multi-country trade model with two types of countries (big and small ones). The model generalizes the case of two countries and wonder whether there could be harm from trade. Monopolistic competition, iceberg type trade costs and variable elasticity of substitution (VES) are among the model assumptions. The effects of trade liberalization on price, production and welfare ...

Наблюдаемая и ненаблюдаемая ликвидность на российском рынке акций
Rodina V., Вестник Удмуртского университета 2014 № 3 С. 105–111
The present study attempts to identify explicit and implicit liquidity in the Russian stock market and to assess its impact on a stock’s expected returns. Explicit liquidity is approximated along two projections which are trading costs and trading activity. Implicit liquidity is seen as embedded in such parameter as a company’s size. It is assumed ...

Agglomeration and Spreading in an Asymmetric World
Sidorov A., Zhelobodko E., Review of Development Economics 2013 Vol. 17 No. 2 P. 201–219
We study Krugman's core–periphery (CP) model for most general cases of nonidentical regions and fully characterize instant and long-run equilibria. Assuming immobility of labor, we describe the behavior of equilibrium wages/real wages. Moreover, the relative wages/real wages of industrial workers can both increase and decrease with the population with which they are associated. Under the ...

We study multiregional extension of Krugman's Core-Periphery model. Comprehensive characterization of agglomeration stability is obtained in terms of the basic parameters of model. In particular, condition of uniqueness of the stable total agglomerated equilibrium were obtained. The main feature of this paper is that the considered model is asymmetric, i.e., uneven allocation of the immobile (agricultural) population across ...
