    Second-price Auctions with Power-Related Distributions: Predicting Merger Effects

    No full text
    By constraining bidders to draw values from a class of power-related value distributions, we are able to derive closed-form expressions for the distribution of winning bids in a second-price, private-values asymmetric auction. We use the expressions to construct estimators of the bidders' value distributions and to construct predictors of merger effects. This paper generalizes the closed-form expressions from the logit auction model to the broader class of power-related distributions considered by Waehrer and Perry [22]. We find that predicted merger effects are dependent on the curvature of the relationship between winning bids and winning probabilities, which is related to the post merger change in variance of the merged firms' value distribution. Keywords: asymmetric auctions; second-price auctions; private-values auctions; merger; antitrust; extreme-value distributions.

    Collectors' networks and patrimonialisation in 19th century Europe : Baron Davillier, the Count of Valencia de Don Juan and Lady Schreiber

    No full text
    Cette thèse étudie le potentiel créateur de l’interaction entre plusieurs collectionneurs et se fonde sur la volonté d’éclairer la manière de faire collection du baron Charles Davillier (1823-1883), de Lady Charlotte Schreiber (1812-1895) et de Juan Crooke y Navarrot, comte de Valencia de Don Juan (1829-1904). Envisagée sous l’angle de la carrière, l’étude de leurs activités de collectionneurs montre qu’ils définissent des pratiques marchandes, savantes et patrimoniales. Réclamer un statut de créateur pour le collectionneur suppose de revendiquer sa qualité d’auteur, ambition à laquelle se prêtent particulièrement les trois protagonistes de cet essai. Davillier, Schreiber et Valencia de Don Juan permettent en effet d’envisager le lien étroit entre collectionnisme et expertise à l’époque de l’institutionnalisation de l’histoire de l’art en Europe. La méthode relationnelle qui a été plébiscitée à travers l’étude de réseaux d’influence restitue leurs rôles de premier plan dans l’histoire du collectionnisme européen de la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle. Elle est également effective pour rendre compte d’un certain nombre de phénomènes façonnés par leurs pratiques de la collection comme la naissance d’un contexte d’émulation et d’un marché des arts décoratifs espagnols, de leur historiographie et de leur patrimonialisation. La réunion de leurs intérêts en Espagne au début des années 1870 permet de mieux saisir la mise en œuvre d’un processus d’esthétisation de la consommation des arts décoratifs espagnols et de l’histoire de leur création culturelle.This thesis studies the creative potential of the interaction between several collectors and is based on the desire to shed light on the collecting methods of Baron Charles Davillier (1823-1883), Lady Charlotte Schreiber (1812-1895) and Juan Crooke y Navarrot, Count of Valencia de Don Juan (1829-1904). Analysed from the point of view of their careers, the study of their collecting activities shows that they defined commercial, scholarly and patrimonial practices. Claiming for the collector the status of creator implies asserting the status of author, an ambition to which the three protagonists of this essay particularly aspire. Davillier, Schreiber and Valencia de Don Juan indeed make it possible to consider the close link between collectionism and expertise at the time of the institutionalisation of art history in Europe. The relational method, which was favoured through the study of networks of influence, restores their leading roles in the history of European collecting in the second half of the 19th century. It is also effective in accounting for a number of phenomena shaped by their collecting practices, such as the birth of a context of emulation and a market for Spanish decorative arts, their historiography and their patrimonialisation. The gathering of their interests in Spain at the beginning of the 1870s allows us to better understand the implementation of a process of aestheticizatio

    Influence of roasting or sodium-hydroxide treatment of barley on digestion in lactating cows

    No full text
    Three cannulated, lactating cows were used in a 3 x 3 Latin square design to determine the effect of roasting or NaOH treatment of barley on ruminal fermentation and site and extent of digestion of nutrients. Experimental treatments were rolled barley, roasted (exit temperature, 135 degrees C) and rolled barley, and treated with 4% NaOH and 220 L of H2O/tonne of barley. Diets also consisted of grass silage and soybean meal. Treatment with NaOH reduced concentrations of several AA, starch, and NDF in the barley. Starch digestibility in the rumen was lower for barley that was treated with NaOH but was unaffected for roasted barley. Digestibilities of N and starch in the small intestine were reduced for barley treated with NaOH, but values for rolled and roasted barley were similar. Apparent total tract digestibility of starch was reduced for the NaOH treated barley. Treatment of barley with NaOH tended to have a detrimental effect on feed intake, digestibility, and milk production. Roasting of barley did not appear to affect the site or extent of carbohydrate digestion, but roasting protected N from ruminal degradation. The protective effect on the carbohydrate fraction would be expected to be greater if the grain were cooled prior to rolling so that the protein matrix of the starch granule remained intact.PT: J; CR: 1964, IDF29 INT DAIR FED 1982, SAS R USERS GUIDE ST 1984, OFFICIAL METHODS ANA AMAN P, 1984, SWED J AGR RES, V14, P135 BORSTING CF, 1994, J ANIM PHYSIOL AN N, V72, P132 CAMPLING RC, 1991, LIVEST PROD SCI, V28, P223 CROOKE WM, 1971, J SCI FOOD AGR, V22, P9 FERREIRA AM, 1983, ANIM FEED SCI TECH, V9, P19 HALE WH, 1973, J ANIM SCI, V37, P1075 HVELPLUND T, 1990, THESIS R VET AGR U C HVELPLUND T, 1992, ACTA AGR SCAND A-AN, V42, P34 HYDEN SA, 1955, LANTBRUKSHOGSK ANN, V22, P139 KASSEM MM, 1987, GRASS FORAGE SCI, V42, P175 KNUDSEN KEB, 1991, J AGR FOOD CHEM, V39, P689 KUNG L, 1983, CAN J ANIM SCI, V63, P15 MADSEN J, 1994, LIVEST PROD SCI, V39, P201 MASON VC, 1980, Z TIERPHYSIOL TIERER, V43, P146 MATRAS J, 1989, J ANIM SCI, V67, P1642 MCALLISTER TA, 1992, CAN J ANIM SCI, V72, P309 MCALLISTER TA, 1992, CAN J ANIM SCI, V72, P317 MCMICHAEL HB, 1968, GUT, V9, P365 MCNIVEN MA, 1994, ANIM FEED SCI TECH, V47, P31 MURPHY DB, 1984, MOL BIOL CYTOSKELETO, P59 NISHINO N, 1994, P SOC NUTR PHYSL, V3, P50 ORSKOV ER, 1977, J AGR SCI, V89, P253 ORSKOV ER, 1986, J ANIM SCI, V63, P1624 OSMAN HF, 1970, J NUTR, V100, P1133 OWENS FN, 1986, J ANIM SCI, V63, P1634 PAPASOLOMONTOS SA, 1976, OPTIMISING UTILISATI, P31 POORE MH, 1993, J DAIRY SCI, V76, P2244 RICE DA, 1986, VET REC, V118, P173 ROBINSON PH, 1994, J DAIRY SCI, V77, P3631 SCHURCH AF, 1950, J NUTR, V50, P629 VANSOEST PJ, 1963, J ASS OFF AGRIC CHEM, V46, P825 VANSOEST PJ, 1982, NUTRITIONAL ECOLOGY; NR: 35; TC: 17; J9: J DAIRY SCI; PG: 10; GA: RB45
