ABSTRACT We propose a statistical duality among the preferences and endowments of agents. Under this duality, logarithmic prices random trades agents in decentralized economy converge expectation to logarithm Walrasian equilibrium price centralized economy.
Planning is paramount in sport. Among different philosophical approaches to planning, periodization a highly popular concept that refers structured training periods with ensuing programs encompassing moments of progressively-loaded training, followed by recovery; it normally deemed optimize adaptations and performance. While planning provides generic guidelines, the sequencing/ordering enforce given plan, therefore referring longer temporal scales, programming more micro-scale aspects. In...
Load is a multifactorial construct, but usually reduced to parameters of volume and intensity. In the last decades, other constructs have been proposed for assessing load, also relying on relationships between For example, Foster's Training Monotony has used in athletes' load management simply by computing mean weekly divided its standard deviation, often multiplied session rate perceived exertion. Meanwhile, Acute Chronic Workload Ratio (ACWR) debated sport scientists as useful monitoring...
The consequences of regulatory T cell (Treg) inhibition interleukine 2 secretion are examined by mathematical modelling. We find a transcritical bifurcation that might explain two alternative scenarios: in one case the appearance autoimmune responses and another suppression immune response.
Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) imaging has now a well-established position in the subject of spectral imaging, leveraging multi-element detection capabilities and fast acquisition rates to support applications both at academic technological levels. In current applications, standard processing pipeline explore LIBS data sets revolves around identifying an element that is suspected exist within sample generating maps based on its characteristic emission lines. Such approach...
We study the effects of product differentiation in a Stackelberg model with demand uncertainty for first mover.We do an ex-ante and ex-post analysis profits leader follower firms terms uncertainty.We show that even small about demand, firm can achieve greater than leader, if their products are sufficiently differentiated.We also compute probability second having higher profit leading firm, subsequently showing advantages disadvantages being either or firm.
We use d'Aspremont and Jacquemin's strategic optimal R&D investment in a duopoly Cournot competition model to construct myopic discrete continuous dynamics. show that for some high initial production costs, the success or failure of firm is very sensitive small variations its strategies.
We present a new R&D investment function in Cournot competition model inspired the logistic equation. do full characterization of associated game and study short- long-term economical effects derived from using this function. In particular, we find existence regions with multiple Nash equilibria. For low production costs, that can correspond to old technologies, are not very sensitive small changes efficiency programmes neither market structure. However, for high also
Introdução: O controlo da dor no pós-operatório de cirurgia abdominal major é um desafio para o Anestesiologista. A otimização analgesia melhora prognóstico e a evolução clínica contribuindo igualmente satisfação do doente redução morbimortalidade. objetivo principal deste estudo randomizado efetuar análise comparativa em termos eficácia uma técnica pouco convencional ainda implementada, infusão contínua ferida cirúrgica, atualmente considerada gold standard, via epidural, major.Material...
We study the problem faced by a wage earner with an uncertain lifetime who has access to Black–Scholes-type financial market consisting of one risk-free security and risky asset. His preferences relative consumption, investment life insurance purchase are described robust expected utility. rewrite this in terms two-player zero-sum stochastic differential game we derive optimal strategies for general class utility functions, studying case discounted constant risk aversion functions more detail.
