On any compact Kähler manifold, Mabuchi [16], Semmes [17], and Donaldson [5] introduced a Weil-Peterson type metric in the space of Kähler metrics and proved that it is a formally non-positively curved symmetric space of “noncompact” type. According to [17], the geodesic equation can be transformed into a homogenous complex Monge-Ampere equation. In [5], Donaldson proposed an ambitious program ...

The essence of image texture is typically understood by two aspects. First, within a texture-pattern there is a significant variation in intensity values between nearby pixels. Second, texture is a homogenous property at some spatial scale larger than the spatial resolution of the image. Motivated by the essential aspects of image texture, this paper proposes a novel methodology that combines t...

This study aims explore how tourists perceive phenomenon this affects tourists’ purchase intention. constructs a hypothesis model relationship among perceived homogeneity, value, intention based ...

The paper suggests that the evolution of modern technologies in manufacturing, from economiesof-scale to economies-of-scope, plays a key role in the increasing outsourcing activities. It is shown that the divergence in the degrees of economies-of-scope and the attribute space of the products between different stages of production is the fundamental economic force behind the recent trend of outs...
