Impact Score
Score Reasoning
- Importance
- Application of (rho,gamma) plane to classify market types. Useful taxonomy but builds on increasing-returns and curvature results.
- Novelty
- New connection: (rho,gamma) plane organizes all standard IO market structures. CES markup formula unifies pricing across structures.
- Quality
- Clear classification table, good empirical examples. Well-connected to firm-scope and increasing-returns.
