This House Proves That Debating is Harder Than Soccer
During the last twenty years, a lot of research was conducted on the sport elimination problem: Given a sports league and its remaining matches, we have to decide whether a given team can still possibly win the competition, i.e., place first in the league at the end. Previously, the computational complexity of this problem was investigated only for games with two participating teams per game. I...
متن کاملEvolution: An exception that proves the rule
A careful comparative analysis suggests a simple explanation for a category of exceptions to the general correlation between separate sexes in plants -- dioecy -- and self-incompatibility. In some genera, polyploidy causes failure of self-incompatibility, and dioecy may then evolve.
متن کاملHow fat is the top tail of the wealth distribution?
Differential unit non-response in household wealth surveys biases estimates of top tail wealth shares downward. Using Monte Carlo evidence, I show that adding only a few extreme observations to wealth surveys is sufficient to remove the downward bias. Combining extreme wealth observations from Forbes World’s billionaires with the Survey of Consumer Finances, the Wealth and Assets survey and the...
متن کاملEffect of Fat-Tail Docking on the Reproductive Performance in Ghezel and Mehraban Sheep
78 Ghezel and 76 Mehraban sheep were used to evaluate the effect of fat-tail docking on reproductive performance. Within two days after birth the tails of 32 Ghezel female lambs and 28 Mehraban female lambs were docked using a tight rubber ring. The lambs were allowed to reproduce for three lambing opportunities and their reproductive performances were evaluated. The effect of docking on the fe...
متن کاملMulti-Tail Elliptical Distributions
In this paper we present a new type of multivariate distributions for asset returns which we call the multi-tail elliptical distributions. Multi-tail elliptical distribution can be thought to be an extension of the elliptical distributions that allow for varying tail parameters. We present a two-step random mechanism leading to this new type of distributions. In particular, this mechanism is de...
