The inability of organisations to develop successfully and their lack of a holistic view and of relevant quantitative facts are factors that played a major role in my choice of a research area for this and my licentiate thesis (Ljungberg, 1994). These two theses together represent the work conducted for the PhD degree. There is a strong need in this research area for increased insight into the de

A game theoretical analysis of international policy is of great interest from an economist’s point of view and game theory has widely been used when analysing international trade, tariffs etc. In this thesis I will use “Cheap-Talk games” to analyse if threats from the U.S. targeting North Korea are having any impact. Cheap talk games are an application of the perfect Bayesian equilibrium of “dynam
The switch process alternates independently between 1 and −1 , with the first switch to 1 occurring at the origin. The expected value function of this process is defined uniquely by the distribution of switching times. The relation between the two is implicitly described through the Laplace transform, which is difficult to use for determining if a given function is the expected value function of
