Testing power-law cosmology with galaxy clusters
Aims. Power-law cosmologies, in which the cosmological scale factor evolves as a power law in the age, a ∝ t with α >∼ 1, regardless of the matter content or cosmological epoch, is comfortably concordant with a host of cosmological observations. Methods. In this article, we use recent measurements of the X-ray gas mass fractions in clusters of galaxies to constrain the α parameter with curvatur...
متن کاملPower-law expansion in k-essence cosmology
We study spatially flat isotropic universes driven by k-essence. It is shown that Friedmann and k-field equations may be analytically integrated for arbitrary k-field potentials during evolution with a constant baryotropic index. It follows that there is an infinite number of dynamically different k-theories with equivalent kinematics of the gravitational field. We show that there is a large “w...
متن کاملThe Dynamic Power Law Model
I propose a new measure of common, time-varying tail risk for large cross sections of stock returns. Stock return tails are described by a power law in which the power law exponent is allowed to transition smoothly through time as a function of recent data. It is motivated by asset pricing theory and is estimable via quasi-maximum likelihood. Estimates indicate substantial time variation in sto...
متن کاملA Qualitative Comparison of Power Law Generators
Several topology generator algorithms have been proposed to match the heavy-tailed behavior of the real Internet AS-level Topology. Although evaluation studies have been presented for each topology generator, each of these studies assumes a different framework. Therefore, it is difficult to compare the differences between the topology generator algorithms. The objective of this paper is to fill...
متن کاملRobust Statistical Detection of Power-Law Cross-Correlation
We show that widely used approaches in statistical physics incorrectly indicate the existence of power-law cross-correlations between financial stock market fluctuations measured over several years and the neuronal activity of the human brain lasting for only a few minutes. While such cross-correlations are nonsensical, no current methodology allows them to be reliably discarded, leaving resear...
