We investigate the impact that uniform "one-size-fits-all" tax policies have on shaping the retail landscape. An entry model demonstrates that tax effects on retailer entry can amplify market concentration. Using data about retail establishments in the United States, we show that while they are more likely to open in markets with favorable state tax policies, these markets become more concentrated as entry is dominated by the largest chains.

This paper examines the effect of a safe housing program that has greatly improved housing conditions for the poor in a most impoverished ethnic minority region in China, where almost half of the labour force had no formal schooling in 2010.

Last year, researchers in the UK and China co-published over 19,000 research papers. Behind that extraordinary number is an extraordinary story, one of finding common purpose across cultures and domains. If the exchange of knowledge, thought and practice across divides has become an integral part of the academic life of the modern university, then how do universities equip our students with these ‘interface’ competencies?

A recommendation platform sequentially collects information on a new product revealed from past consumer trials and uses it to better guide later consumers. Because consumers do not internalize the value of information they bring to others, their incentive for trying out the product can be socially insufficient.

With the theme of Engineering Innovation Shaping the Future of Humanity, the symposium focuses on sustainable smart cities, cutting-edge technologies in artificial intelligence, etc.

To find unknown convex body $K$ such that $\mu=\mathcal{M}(K,\cdot)$, where $\mu$ is a pregiven Borel measure on the unit sphere $S^{n-1}$ and $\mathcal{M}(K,cdot)$ is a Borel measure on $S^{n-1}$ depending on $K$ is an important problem in convex geometry. Such a problem is called the Minkowski type problem and has found many applications in other areassuch aspartial differential equations computer science, etc.

As aconsequence, it is not wrong for Nozick to deny that if I know that I have hands, then I know that I am not a BIV, even though he and Dretske fail to provide an independent reason for doing so. I then argue that in the famous red-barn thought experiment, my
