Competitive rivalry, social disposition, and subjective well-being: An experiment
Journal of Public Economics, 2009Co-Authors: Jordi Brandts, Arno Riedl, Frans Van WindenAbstract:This paper experimentally studies the effects of competitive rivalry in a social dilemma where people's actions cannot be contractually fixed. We find that, in comparison with no rivalry, the presence of rivalry does neither increase efficiency nor does it yield any gains in earnings for the short side of the Exchange Relation. Moreover, rivalry has a clearly negative impact on the disposition towards others and on the experienced well-being of those on the long side. Since subjective well-being improves only for those on the short side rivalry contributes to larger inequalities in experienced well-being. All in all rivalry does not show up as a positive force in our environment.

On tilting modules over cluster-tilted algebras
Illinois Journal of Mathematics, 2008Co-Authors: David SmithAbstract:In this paper, we show that the tilting modules over a clustertilted algebra A lift to tilting objects in the associated cluster category CH . As a first application, we describe the induced Exchange Relation for tilting Amodules arising from the Exchange Relation for tilting object in CH . As a second application, we exhibit tilting A-modules having cluster-tilted endomorphism algebras. Cluster algebras were introduced by Fomin and Zelevinsky [FZ02] in the context of canonical basis of quantized enveloping algebras and total positivity for algebraic groups, but quickly turned out to be related to many other fields in mathematics. In the representation theory of finite dimensional algebras, the so-called cluster categories were introduced in [BMR06] (and also in [CCS06] for the An case) as a natural categorical model for the combinatorics of the corresponding cluster algebras of Fomin and Zelevinsky. The construction is as follows. Let Q be a quiver without oriented cycles. There is then, for a field k, an associated finite dimensional hereditary path algebra H = kQ. Since H has finite global dimension, its bounded derived category D(H) of the finitely generated modules has almost split triangles [Hap88]. Let τ be the corresponding translation functor. Denoting by F the composition τ[1], where [1] is the shift functor in D(H), the cluster category CH was defined as the orbit category D(H)/F , and was shown to be canonically triangulated [Kel05] and have almost split triangles [BMR06]. In this model, the exceptional objects are associated with the cluster variables of [FZ02] while the tilting objects correspond to the clusters. Remarkably, one also defines an Exchange Relation on the tilting objects in CH , corresponding to the Exchange Relation on the clusters of [FZ02]. More precisely, an almost complete tilting object T in CH has exactly two nonisomorphic indecomposable complements M and M, and these are related by triangles M g //B f //M //M[1] and M f∗ //B g∗ //M //M [1] where f, g are minimal right addT -approximations and f , g are minimal left addT -approximations (see [BMR06]). In view of the importance of tilting theory in the representation theory of finite dimensional algebras, the (opposite) endomorphism algebras of these tilting objects, called cluster-tilted, were then introduced and studied in [BMR07] (see also [CCS06]). Their module theory was shown to be to a large extent determined by the cluster categories in which they arise. Indeed, given a cluster category CH and a 1991 Mathematics Subject Classification. 16G20, 18E30.

On tilting modules over cluster-tilted algebras
arXiv: Representation Theory, 2007Co-Authors: David SmithAbstract:In this paper, we show that the tilting modules over a cluster-tilted algebra $A$ lift to tilting objects in the associated cluster category $\mathcal{C}_H$. As a first application, we describe the induced Exchange Relation for tilting $A$-modules arising from the Exchange Relation for tilting object in $\mathcal{C}_H$. As a second application, we exhibit tilting $A$-modules having cluster-tilted endomorphism algebras.

mutual commitment to support Exchange Relation specific it system as a substitute for managerial hierarchy
Southern Medical Journal, 2006Co-Authors: Sung Min Kim, Joseph T. MahoneyAbstract:This paper examines the effects of Information Technology (IT) on the governance structure of vertically-related firms that are applying IT in search of competitive advantage via superior efficiency. By adopting transaction costs and resource-based perspectives on IT and governance, this paper examines how different types of IT systems change the boundary of the firm. It is proposed that a highly Relation-specific IT system in inter-firm transactions plays a key role in the resulting inter-firm governance as a mutual sunk-cost commitment, in terms of both less integration (i.e., change in governance mode as a first-order effect) and a smaller number of suppliers (i.e., change within a governance mode as a second-order effect). As a result, this specific IT system can be an alternative governance mode of electronic integration as a substitute for managerial hierarchy. In addition, if a firm-specific IT system improves efficiency of internal transactions complementarily with other firm-specific resources, it can result in a larger scale of operations conducted within the firm as a co-specialized asset. From a strategic management perspective, this paper provides transaction costs and resource-based explanations for the organizational boundary decision and for sustainable competitive advantage of the firm. The strategic intent of searching for improved governance in acquiring and processing information while simultaneously managing economic incentives effectively continues to provide challenges for strategic management By analyzing the effects of a Relation-specific IT system on the governance of supplier-buyer Relationships, this paper extends studies in organizational economics and strategic management.
