Die Quantenspieltheorie stellt eine mathematische und konzeptuelle Erweiterung der klassischen Spieltheorie dar. Der Raum aller denkbaren Entscheidungswege der Spieler wird vom rein reellen, messbaren Raum in den Raum der komplexen Zahlen (reelle und imaginäre Zahlen) ausgedehnt. Durch das Konzept der möglichen quantentheoretischen Verschränkung der Entscheidungswege im imaginären Raum aller denkbaren Quantenstrategien können gemeinsame, durch kulturelle oder moralische Normen entstandene Denkrichtungen mit einbezogen werden. Ist die Strategienverschränkung der Spieler im imaginären Raum der denkbaren Entscheidungswege nur genügend groß, so können zusätzliche Nash-Gleichgewichte auftreten und zuvor existente dominante Strategien sich auflösen. Die der evolutionären Entwicklung zugrundeliegende Replikatordynamik besitzt in der evolutionären Quantenspieltheorie eine komplexere Struktur und die jeweiligen evolutionär stabilen Strategien können sich, abhängig vom Maß der Verschränkung, abändern. Neben einer detaillierten Darstellung der evolutionären Quantenspieltheorie werden in dieser Dissertation mehrere Anwendungsbeispiele besprochen. So wird durch eine quantentheoretische Erweiterung die aktuelle Finanzkrise mittels eines Anti-Koordinationsspiels beleuchtet, das unterschiedliche Publikationsverhalten von Wissenschaftlern erklärt und erste Ansätze einer experimentellen Bestätigung der Theorie dargestellt.
IT-driven trading innovations offer institutional investors alternative trading channels to broker delegated order handling. Motivated by the impact on intermediation relationships in securities trading and the adoption rate of such trading channels, the new option of self-directed order handling is analyzed. To capture the prerequisites for institutional investors to insource their order handling, an order-channel management (OCM) framework is introduced. It is based on a structural approach to account for the increasing complexity in comparison to traditional intermediary services. Drivers for the adoption of an OCM framework are investigated from the strategic perspective. Operational OCM is based on the business value of IT analysis of distinct trading innovations. It includes smart order router technology, low latency technology as an upgrade for existing IT-driven trading channels as well as negotiation dark pools, representing alternative trading venues. Evidence that all investigated IT-driven trading innovations generate additional business value is provided as one result. However, it is also shown that they exhibit entry barriers tightly related to investor size. Further, Task-Technology Fit is proven to be the major driver for the adoption decision. Consequently, IT-driven trading innovations should increase trading control, satisfy high anonymity and varying urgency demands.
Software updates are a critical success factor in mobile app ecosystems. Through publishing regular updates, platform providers enhance their operating systems for the benefit of both end users and third-party developers. It is also a way of attracting new customers. However, this platform evolution poses the risk of inadvertently introducing software problems, which can severely disturb the ecosystem’s balance by compromising its foundational technologies. So far, little to no research has addressed this issue from a user-centered perspective. The thesis at hand draws on IS post-adoption literature to investigate the potential negative influences of operating system updates on mobile app users. The release of Apple’s iOS 13 update serves as research object. Based on over half a million user reviews from the AppStore, data mining techniques are applied to study the impact of the new platform version. The results show that iOS 13 caused complications with a large number of popular apps, leading to a significant decline in user ratings and an uptrend in negative sentiment. Feature requests, functional complaints, and device compatibility are identified as the three major issue categories. These issue types are compared in terms of their quantifiable negative effect on users’ continuance intention. In essence, the findings contribute to IS research on post-adoption behavior and provide guidance to ecosystem participants in dealing with update-induced platform issues.
