A spatial Mankiw-Romer-Weil model: Theory and evidenceFischer, Manfred M. 10 1900 (has links) (PDF)
This paper presents a theoretical growth model that extends the
Mankiw-Romer-Weil [MRW] model by accounting for technological
interdependence among regional economies. Interdependence is assumed to work
through spatial externalities caused by disembodied knowledge diffusion. The
transition from theory to econometrics leads to a reduced-form empirical spatial
Durbin model specification that explains the variation in regional levels of per worker output at steady state. A system of 198 regions across 22 European countries over the period from 1995 to 2004 is used to empirically test the model. Testing is performed by assessing the importance of cross-region technological interdependence, and measuring direct and indirect (spillover) effects of the MRW
determinants on regional output. (author's abstract)

Regions, technological interdependence and growth in EuropeFischer, Manfred M. January 2009 (has links) (PDF)
This paper presents a theoretical neoclassical growth model with two kinds of capital, and
technological interdependence among regions. Technological interdependence is assumed to
operate through spatial externalities caused by disembodied knowledge diffusion between
technologically similar regions. The transition from theory to econometrics yields a reduced-form
empirical model that in the spatial econometrics literature is known as spatial Durbin model.
Technological dependence between regions is formulated by a connectivity matrix that measures
closeness of regions in a technological space spanned by 120 distinct technological fields. We use a
system of 158 regions across 14 European countries over the period from 1995 to 2004 to
empirically test the model. The paper illustrates the importance of an impact-based model
interpretation, in terms of the LeSage and Pace (2009) approach, to correctly quantify the
magnitude of spillover effects that avoid incorrect inferences about the presence or absence of
significant capital externalities among technologically similar regions. (author's abstract)

Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics, Index Theorems and Equivariant CohomologyNguyen, Hans January 2018 (has links)
In this thesis, we investigate supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSYQM) and its relation to index theorems and equivariant cohomology. We define some basic constructions on super vector spaces in order to set the language for the rest of the thesis. The path integral in quantum mechanics is reviewed together with some related calculational methods and we give a path integral expression for the Witten index. Thereafter, we discuss the structure of SUSYQM in general. One shows that the Witten index can be taken to be the difference in dimension of the bosonic and fermionic zero energy eigenspaces. In the subsequent section, we derive index theorems. The models investigated are the supersymmetric non-linear sigma models with one or two supercharges. The former produces the index theorem for the spin-complex and the latter the Chern-Gauss-Bonnet Theorem. We then generalise to the case when a group action (by a compact connected Lie group) is included and want to consider the orbit space as the underlying space, in which case equivariant cohomology is introduced. In particular, the Weil and Cartan models are investigated and SUSYQM Lagrangians are derived using the obtained differentials. The goal was to relate this to gauge quantum mechanics, which was unfortunately not successful. However, what was shown was that the Euler characteristics of a closed oriented manifold and its homotopy quotient by U(1)n coincide.
