Discrete Truncated Powers And Lattice Points In Rational Polytope ∗
Discrete truncate power is very useful for studying the number of nonnegative integer solutions of linear Diophantine equations. In this paper, some detail information about discrete truncated power is presented. To study the number of integer solutions of linear Diophantine inequations, the generalized truncated power and generalized discrete truncated power are defined and discussed respectiv...
متن کاملPowers of rationals modulo 1 and rational base number systems
A new method for representing positive integers and real numbers in a rational base is considered. It amounts to computing the digits from right to left, least significant first. Every integer has a unique such expansion. The set of expansions of the integers is not a regular language but nevertheless addition can be performed by a letter-to-letter finite right transducer. Every real number has...
متن کاملNormative and non-normative concepts: Paternalism and libertarian paternalism
This chapter concerns the normativity of the concepts of paternalism and libertarian paternalism. The first concept is central to evaluation of public health policy, but its meaning is controversial. The second concept is equally controversial and has received much attention recently. It may or may not shape the future evaluation of public health policy. In order to facilitate honest and fruitf...
متن کاملWelfare and Paternalism
Citizens’ desires to assist the poor reflect a mixture of insurance motives, altruism, and paternalism. Consequently, government policies toward the poor have always been a mixture of income supports and regulations of recipient behavior. Unfortunately, there have been very few analyses of the how these distinct motives interact to generate various policies to the poor. In this paper, we develo...
متن کاملStabilizing Powers of Monetary Policy under Rational Expectations
The potential of monetary policy to stabilize fluctuations in output and employment is demonstrated in a stochastic rational expectations model in which firms choose, considering average profitability, to set prices in advance of the period when they apply to goods sold. This lead time in pricing decisions increases the fluctuations of output about the normal employment level. But proper use of...
