Korzinov, Vladimir; Savin, Ivan - 2016
We propose a novel model of knowledge discovery shedding light on the emergence of General Purpose Technologies (GPTs), the process which has been largely neglected in the literature on technological change. We demonstrate that GPTs emerge only when certain conditions with regard to the...

Replicator dynamics in value chains: Explaining some puzzles of market selection
Cantner, Uwe; Savin, Ivan; Vannuccini, Simone - 2016
The pure model of replicator dynamics though providing important insights in the evolution of markets has not found much of empirical support. This paper extends the model to the case of firms vertically integrated in value chains. We show that i) by taking value chains into account, the...
