The specificity of the self-recognition repertoire in fully allogeneic (A {arrow} B), semiallogeneic (A {arrow} A x B and A x B {arrow} A), and double donor (A + B {arrow} A) radiation bone marrow chimeras was assessed by the ability of their spleen cells to generate in vitro primary plaque-forming cell (PFC) responses to trinitrophenyl- keyhole limpet hemocyanin. In contrast to spleen cells fr...

Single potassium M-channels in rat sympathetic neurons have multiple voltage-dependent kinetic components in their activity: short, medium, and long closed times (tau(CS), tau(CM), and tau(CL)) and short and long open times (tau(OS) and tau(OL)). All five components can be detected in cell-attached patches, but only four of them (tau(CS), tau(CM), tau(OS), and tau(OL)) in excised patches (, J. ...

We argue that a semantics for counterfactual conditionals in terms of comparative overall similarity faces a formal limitation due to Arrow’s impossibility theorem from social choice theory. According to Lewis’s account, the truth-conditions for counterfactual conditionals are given in terms of the comparative overall similarity between possible worlds, which is in turn determined by various as...

I develop a noisy rational expectations equilibrium model with a continuum of states and a full set of options that render the market complete. I show a major difference in equilibrium behavior between models with constant absolute risk aversion (CARA) and non-CARA preferences. First, when informed traders have non-CARA preferences, all equilibria are fully revealing, independent of the amount ...

In this paper, we propose arrow decision logic (ADL), which combines the main features of decision logic and arrow logic. Decision logic represents and reasons about knowledge extracted from decision tables based on rough set theory, while arrow logic is the basic modal logic of arrows. The semantic models of ADL are pairwise comparison tables, which are useful in rough set-based multicriteria ...

Mouse oocytes were placed in Hepes-T6 containing 7.5 μg/ml cytochalasin B and 5μg/ml Hoechst prior to enucleation, and enucleation was performed on oocytes using the manipulator. The oocyte held in place by gentle suction of a holding pipette (oocyte diameter approx.70 μm). The metaphase spindle (arrow) is aspirated into an enucleation pipette (1).

Throughout this paper, our  main idea is to analyze the Arrovian approach in a fuzzy context, paying attention to different extensions of the classical Arrow's model arising in mathematical Social Choice to aggregate preferences that the agents define on a set of alternatives. There is a wide set of extensions. Some of them give rise to an impossibility theorem as in the Arrovian classical  mod...
