Spectral analysis of business cycles in Poland and its major trading partners
Journal Title: Operations Research and Decisions - Year 2017, Vol 27, Issue 1
Abstract
The properties of business cycles in Poland and its major trading partners have been examined. The business cycle synchronization (BCS) between Poland and other countries was studied in order to assess the impact of international trade on BCS. The author applies a modification of the Fourier anal-ysis to the estimation of cycle amplitudes and frequencies. This allows more precise estimation of the cycle characteristics than the traditional approach. Cross-spectral analysis of the cyclical components of GDP for Poland and its major trading partners enables us to study the relationships between business cycles in these countries. Comparing the international structure of Polish trade with that of EU members with the cross-spectral characteristics of GDP series allows us to investigate the links between interna-tional trade and business cycle synchronization.

On the performance of modified EWMA charts using resampling schemes
Two popular sampling schemes have been used to design control charts by means of a modified exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) statistic. The structures of the proposed charts, using repetitive group sampling a...
Solving linear fractional multilevel programs
The linear fractional multilevel programming (LFMP) problem has been studied and it has been proved that an optimal solution to this problem occurs at a boundary feasible extreme point. Hence the Kth-best algorithm can b...
Probabilistic characteristics supporting the management of a production-supply system
The construction of a model and quantitative measures have been presented aimed at improving the efficiency of a production-supply system described by a three-dimensional stochastic process. For this purpose, the laws go...
A theoretical framework for determining the appropriate level of subsidy in an economy
A framework has been developed for determining the subsidy that, in the long run, serves to equalize the per capita income shares across income classes. The framework characterizes the income dynamics by the Markov proce...
