Opioid utility function: methods and implications

Properties of utility function for Barles and Soner model

The nonlinear Black-Scholes equation has been increasingly attracting interest over the last two decades, because it provides more accurate values by considering transaction costs as a viable assumption. In this paper we review the fully nonlinear Black-Scholes equation with an adjusted volatility which is a function of the second derivative of the price and then we prove two new theorems in th...

compactifications and function spaces on weighted semigruops

chapter one is devoted to a moderate discussion on preliminaries, according to our requirements. chapter two which is based on our work in (24) is devoted introducting weighted semigroups (s, w), and studying some famous function spaces on them, especially the relations between go (s, w) and other function speces are invesigated. in fact this chapter is a complement to (32). one of the main fea...

Utility and Treatment Implications

Opioid peptides and pituitary function.

A number of in-vitro model systems have been introduced for the study of the action of morphine-like drugs. Their usefulness depends on their relative simplicity, compared to the brain and central nervous system, and on the good correlation observed between potencies in the models and potencies in the whole animal. For example, the contractions of the isolated guinea\x=req-\ pig ileum and mouse...

Implications for Utility Analysis

Utility analysis suggests that human resources policies can have an economically significant impact on business organizations. Confidence in such conclusions, however, requires an accurate estimate of SDy. This article provides a validity check on prevailing subjective methods of SDy estimation by directly estimating SDy from unique field data. Using both simulated and field data, we first illu...
