    • On the resource allocation for political campaigns 
      Morales, Sebastián; Thraves Cortés-Monroy, Charles Mark (Wiley, 2021)
      In an election campaign, candidates must decide how to optimally allocate their efforts/resources optimally among the regions of a country. As a result, the outcome of the election will depend on the players' strategies ...
