“…Businesses differentiate themselves from one another through their internal core knowledge and unique capabilities, which are valuable, difficult for competitors to imitate, and non-replicable. Their profitability and competitive advantage stem from their enterprise heterogeneity, which is fueled by factors like productivity, enterprise size, ownership, and industry (Jia et al, 2021;Li et al, 2023;Rege & Lee, 2022;Zaman & Zaccour, 2021).…”

This investigation explores the intricate relationship between government support, foreign investment, and research and development (R&D) commitment in China's strategic sectors, with a focus on the crucial role of government assistance in spurring innovation in small-scale enterprises. Utilizing advanced deep learning and data mining techniques, the impact of government subsidies and tax incentives on R&D dedication in burgeoning strategic firms is meticulously analyzed, particularly in the context of varying levels of external financing. The findings reveal a significant, multifaceted influence of government financial aid and foreign capital on R&D endeavors. A pronounced, positive correlation between government financial backing and R&D activities emerges, with the magnitude of this relationship being substantially modulated by the degree of external investment. This underscores the importance of strategic financial orchestration in nurturing research and innovation within pivotal sectors. Insights gleaned from this study are of paramount importance for policy formulators and business leaders, offering a refined comprehension of the synergistic interplay between government incentives, foreign investment, and R&D commitment. These findings are pivotal for promoting economic growth and technological progress in China's key industries.

“…Guo et al [40] propose that the government provide two types of subsidies to reduce disruption: manufacturer and supplier subsidies. Zaman and Zaccour [41] determine the optimal subsidy levels to encourage consumers to upgrade their vehicles quickly in a two-period game between strategic consumers and the government. J. Lee and Choi [42] investigate a supply chain with carbon-emitting suppliers and buyers and a social planner assigning the carbon footprint to supply chain participants.…”

To maintain a competitive advantage, manufacturers of household appliances should promote energy efficiency, considering the impact on customer purchasing behavior. Since energy efficiency and pricing policies influence customers' purchasing decisions, manufacturers confront significant challenges in balancing costs and demand since they must consider their profit-maximizing objective and government regulations. The Stackelberg game framework represents the interactions between the government, the leader, and a manufacturer, the follower, incorporating the government's involvement in environmentally dependent social welfare under a tax structure. This paper proposes closed-form equilibrium by utilizing a game theory approach and geometric programming (GP) to solve the government's and manufacturer's non-linear decision models. The analytical results offer insight into the management's approach to energy efficiency. The findings demonstrate that when clients' concerns about energy-saving grow, the ratio of net payoff to total manufacturer revenue always decreases. The outcomes imply that the manufacturer must allocate a more significant portion of the revenue to tax expenditures in markets with more price-sensitive clients.

Municipal solid waste (MSW) is gradually rising along with residents' living conditions, which boosts the demand of the waste incineration. However, environment and public health are seriously threatened by incineration pollution. In this study, we present a model of third-party enterprise supervision and build a differential game model among the government, third-party supervision enterprise, and waste incinerator. We investigate how to encourage third-party enterprises to increase their supervision and avoid the collision. The results show that: (1) In the long run, the third-party supervision mode is more conducive to reducing incineration pollution. (2) The governments must set a higher penalty for third-party enterprises to avoid the collision. Meanwhile, compared with the supervision approach, we suggest governments in large cities implement penalty mechanisms to prevent collusion. (3) As the amount of MSW increases, compared with the supervision of third-party enterprises on incinerators, the government's punishment policy is more effective in promoting incineration plants to increase pollution control input. The paper offers policy recommendations to the government that can assist to lessen waste incineration pollution and improve MSW management efficiency.
