This licentiate thesis consists of three separate papers that investigate the effects of negotiation and renegotiation in Bertrand games. The first paper investigates collusion in an infinitely repeated Bertrand duopoly where firms have different discount factors. In order to study how a collusive agreement is reached we model the equilibrium selection as an alternating-offer bargaining game. The
The free energy of interaction between two nanometric clay platelets immersed in an electrolyte solution has been calculated using Monte Carlo simulations as well as direct integration of the configurational integral. Each platelet has been modeled as a collection of charged spheres carrying a unit charge-the face of a platelet contains negative charges, and the edge, positive charges. The calcula
Daily-deal websites have recently been a new and successful way of attracting product service providers since they offer ‘‘free’’ advertising and at the same time the opportunity to sell products and services via certain promotional campaigns. However, research on the concept of daily deal consumer behaviour has been somewhat limited in the context of online shopping, especially regarding empirica

The fight against climate change has reached a crossroads, necessitating critical assessment of the means designed to mitigate the ongoing crisis. This thesis examines the impact of the Market Stability Reserve (MSR) on installation-level emissions and emissions intensities in Norway. The MSR, introduced in 2019, was designed to address the surplus of emissions allowances in the EU Emissions Tradi

The purpose of this study is to contribute to the expanding literature that associates early childhood conditions to future outcomes. Using the Cebu Longitudinal Health and Nutrition Survey, we will try to provide further empirical evidence to the question whether early-life health and nutritional status has impact on earnings into young adulthood for the case of the metropolitan area of Cebu in P
Access to water is a necessity for farmers for them to be able to produce food. This poses a problem in Jordan, one of the world’s driest countries, but also in Sweden, where after a drought in the summer of 2018 the state of the water levels was more critical than ever. Virtual reality (VR) has shown to be a tool with a good effect on students’ learning. In this work VR has been taken advantage o
The comfortable garment is about creating a comfortable experience with all that it implies, both physiologically and psychologically. The project describes the interaction between expectations and needs, in and across situations, in order to be and feel prepared, relaxed, and while still well dressed. The Expectation of this project is that it should be an eye opener to take get new knowledge abo
Popular Abstract in English Sugar is the main source of energy in our bodies. If your blood sugar drops below a certain level, it can cause serious damage to your brain. On the other hand, having a very high blood sugar level for a long time can cause diabetes. For this reason, blood sugar levels in our bodies are maintained within a certain range by a group of hormones that work together. These hIslet dysfunction is central to the development and progression of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Epigenetic modifications are essential for establishing and maintaining cell identity and function in normal circumstances. Exposure to adverse environmental factors may alter the epigenome, and result in changes of gene expression and the resulting phenotype. The aim of this thesis was to analyze DNA methyla
The current state of the water and sanitation sector has put water-related innovations high on the global policy agenda. However, the systemic complexity that typically surrounds such contexts call for actionable knowledge of how to enable and orchestrate innovative solutions by connecting different players via organized networks. In this study we explore and analyse the Water Innovation Accelerat

How can design be used to minimize negative environmental impact? I strongly believe that we, human beings, are facing an unavoidable paradigm shift. The world we have created for ourselves is a ticking bomb and we need to rethink the fundamental system in order to have a future at all. In this project the goal was to understand what role design can play in the process of reaching a more sustaina

The profane choir - finds and traces in the choir stalls of Lunds cathedral. When the choir in Lunds cathedral was being rebuilt in 1833 the choir-stalls were moved. Beneath them a surprising amount of well preserved artefacts were found. This included pencils, sandals, a large amount of coins, papers with writing and half a deck of playing cards. For almost 200 years these finds have received lit
