A Fock space is introduced which admits an action of a quantum group of type A supplemented with some extra operators. The canonical and dual canonical basis of the Fock space are computed and then used to derive the finite-dimenisonal tilting and irreducible characters for the Lie superalgebra osp(2|2n). We also determine all the composition factors for the symmetric tensors of the natural osp...

It has been found part icularly valuable for cutting around trees, boulders, t raps, creek-bottoms, and other golf course obstructions which formerly required hand cutt ing.

We consider a symmetric information voting model where a group of uninformed voters must collectively choose a policy. An individual (information controller) can influence voters’ choices by designing the information content of a public signal. We characterize the controller’s optimal signal, and how it varies with the electoral rules and the distribution of voters’ preferences. We show that un...

In a symmetric information voting model, an individual (information controller) can influence voters’ choices by designing the information content of a public signal. We characterize the controller’s optimal signal. With a non-unanimous voting rule, she exploits voters’ heterogeneity by designing a signal with realizations targeting di↵erent winning-coalitions. Consequently, under simple-majori...
