1. 1. Svensk och finsk upphinnartillväxt : Faktorpris- och produktivitetsutjämning mellan Finland och Sverige 1950-2000

   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economic history; Sweden; Finland; Convergence; Catch-Up Growth; Productivty; Factor Prices; Wage moderation; Shift-Share analysis; growth accounting; neo-classical growth theory; Economic history; Ekonomisk historia; ekonomisk historia; Economic History;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to gain improved understanding of the income convergence between Finland and Sweden 1950-2000 with a focus on catch-up growth, wage formation, productivity growth, migration and structural change in a setting of structural and institutional differences on the factor markets. Earlier studies of Finnish and Swedish convergence has overlooked the international perspective and therefore missed the general European – US convergence during the period. LÄS MER

3. 2. European bioenergy markets : integration and price convergence

   Författare :Olle Olsson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Energy market integration is beneficial in several ways: it can increase competition, reduce the risk of local shortages or oversupply and can also reduce price volatility. As demand for renewable energy is growing, bioenergy from solid biomass fuels is changing from its traditional role as a locally utilized form of energy into an internationally traded energy commodity.

   Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of an introduction and five articles devoted to optimal stopping problems of American type options. In article A, we get general convergence results for the American option rewards for multivariate Markov price processes. These results are used to prove convergence of tree approximations presented in papers A, B, C and E. LÄS MER
