Strategic analysis of the Russian crab quota auction in 2019
Marine Policy. 2020.
Kalinin N., Vershinin M.
The distribution of natural resources such as fish or forest, among many others, is an everyday political, economic, and ecological issue. Auctions are a possible alternative for grandfathering (historical rights). As many economists believe, an auction is the most efficient procedure to distribute quotas for resources. In 2019, the auction for Russian crab quotas yielded the largest revenue (more than 2 bln. euros) among world auctions, except for spectrum auctions. We analyse the strategic behavior of its participants and propose a better scheme of auction which is more favorable for newcomers and small companies, and potentially generates more revenue (up to 40% on 19 out of 31 lots) for the government.

The higher Green's functions Gk/2(z,w) on the modular curve are real-valued eigenfunctions of the hyperbolic Laplacian in each variable, with logarithmic singularities along the diagonal. Gross and Zagier conjectured that their values at CM points, after multiplication by suitable powers of the discriminants, are logarithms of absolute values of algebraic numbers. The conjecture was proved ...

The modular curves serve as excellent objects for testing conjectures in arithmetic geometry. They possess a natural geometric definition in contrast with rather nontrivial structure. On the other hand, they are well-studied from the perspective of number theory. Furthermore, there is a well-developed and powerful analytic technique available. We will use the square of the ...

We study Axiom A diffeomorphisms (in the sense of Smale) on a closed orientable $n$-manifold $M^n$, $n\ge 4$, whose non-wandering sets consist of codimension one orientable attractors, repellers, and isolated saddle periodic orbits with the same Morse index. Such systems combine chaotic dynamics on basic sets with regular dynamics near trivial periodic orbits. We prove ...

We show that any orientable closed 3-manifold $M$ admits structurally stable non-singular flow $f^t$ whose non-wandering set $NW(f^t)$ consists of a 2-dimensional expanding attractor and finitely many repelling periodic trajectories. For $M=\mathbb{S}^3$, we prove that the set of repelling periodic trajectories can be an arbitrary link provided that this link contains the figure eight knot. ...

On a closed orientable surface, we consider the set of axiom A diffeomorphisms whose non-wandering sets consist of connected one-dimensional expanding attractors and contracting repellers (any attractor/repeller is locally homeomorphic to the product of segment and Cantor set). This set consists of $\Omega$-stable diffeomorphisms and structurally unstable diffeomorphisms. We classify such diffeomorphisms up to the ...

The optimal implementation of quantum gates for closed $N$-qubit systems is one of the key challenges for practical realization of many quantum information processing tasks. In the present article, based on the generalized Bloch vectors formalism [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 54, 195301 (2021)] for a finite-dimensional quantum system, we develop a new \emph{general} model for the ...

We study perturbations of an integrable Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom that possesses a saddle-focus equilibrium with a homoclinic skirt—a one-parameter family of homoclinic orbits of the saddle-focus whose stable and unstable invariant manifolds coincide. The perturbations are dissipative, and we consider those that split the skirt completely (i.e., no intersections remain). We are interested ...

В работе построен дискретный q-аналог одевающей цепочки Веселова–Шабата (являющейся обобщением гармонического осциллятора). Показано, что, как и в непрерывном случае, соответствующие операторные соотношения позволяют полностью определить дискретный спектр операторов цепочки: в данном случае он состоит из нескольких q-арифметических прогрессий. В этой работе удалось реализовать циклическую q-цепочку ограниченными разностными самосопряженными операторами, причем спектр каждого из них дискретен, а собственные векторы образуют ...

We study the spatial overlap of successive spin configurations generated by Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations of the Baxter–Wu model. Using the Novotny–Evertz sublattice-freezing single-cluster update, we track the mean and variance of the algorithmic overlap across the critical region. We show that, even in this three-spin model, the overlap acts as an algorithmic observable ...

This study compares two estimation approaches for the stochastic volatility (SV) model,
namely quasi-maximum likelihood (QML) and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). A simulation exercise shows that MCMC delivers markedly more accurate parameter estimates than
QML. However, QML remains substantially faster and far less computationally demanding,
which makes it attractive in large-scale empirical applications. To the best of ...

The collective dynamics of spiking networks of neurons has been of central interest to both computational
neuroscience and network science. Over the past years, a new generation of neural
population models based on exact reductions (ER) of spiking networks have been developed.
However, most of these efforts have been limited to networks of neurons with simple dynamics

A prototypical example of categorial grammars are those based on Lambek calculus, i.e. noncommutative intuitionistic linear logic. However, it has been noted that purely noncommutative operations are often not sufficient for modeling even very simple natural language phenomena. Therefore a number of alternative formalisms are considered in the literature: those using purely ``commutative'' linear logic ...

Abstract
Safety-aligned language models often encode that a request is harmful yet still comply with it. We turn this gap between internal recognition and observable behavior into an inference-time defense. The proposed activation-steering method uses a multiplicative operator that amplifies the residual-stream component along a harm-recognition direction. Intervention strength scales with the model’s own assessment of ...

Camera traps are a key tool for non-invasive wildlife monitoring, yet models trained on existing benchmarks often generalize poorly to new regions due to domain shift, class imbalance, and natural variability in illumination, season, and background. We introduce PACTraD, a benchmark of 116,973 annotated camera trap images collected in a protected area of the Baikal ...

We consider the interaction of two solitary waves in the modified Benjamin–Bona–Mahony

modified Korteweg–de Vries (mKdV) equation. A regular perturbation method is used to
analyze the modification of the two-soliton wave field induced by the weak non-integrability of
the mBBM equation. We show that, ...

In the circular restricted three-body problem, families of periodic and quasi-periodic orbits exist in the vicinity of the libration points and are of significant interest for practical applications. This work presents a neural network-based algorithm for orbit construction and station-keeping, applicable to both periodic and quasi-periodic orbits near collinear libration points. The method employs a ...

The impact of state subsidies on Russia's post-Soviet dairy output remains controversial; this study provides an empirical analysis of that relationship. Using an unbalanced panel dataset of 123 dairy enterprises in the Leningrad Region spanning the period from 2010 to 2023, we employ stochastic frontier analysis to assess these relationships. The results indicate that subsidies ...

The paper is the first attempt in the Russian literature to assess returns to platform employment in the Russian labor market. The theory offers no clear predictions regarding its impact on workers’ earnings: there might be both a premium and a penalty.
