This paper analyzes players’ long run behavior in evolutionary coordination games with local interaction and imitation. Players are assumed to interact only with their neighbors, and to imitate the successful actions taken by their neighbors or themselves. It is found that the payoff-dominant equilibrium could prevail in the long run. We also derive the conditions under which both risk–dominant...

The local H i mass function (HiMF), like the optical luminosity function, is an important observational input into models of cosmology and galaxy evolution. It is a helpful framework for assessing the number density of gas rich dwarf galaxies, which are easily missed in optically selected galaxy samples, as well as for determining the cosmological density of neutral gas at the present epoch. Fo...

‎let $m$ be a non-zero finitely generated module over a commutative noetherian local ring $(r,mathfrak{m})$ with $dim_r(m)=t$‎. ‎let $i$ be an ideal of $r$ with $grade(i,m)=c$‎. ‎in this article we will investigate several natural homomorphisms of local cohomology modules‎. ‎the main purpose of this article is to investigate when the natural homomorphisms $gamma‎: ‎tor^{r}_c(k,h^c_i(m))to kotim...

0. Introduction. A. Summary. A significant problem in topology is the classification of wild arcs in S3. The first fundamental paper in this area was written by Fox and Artin in 1948 [13]. There the authors developed rigorous algebraic means for demonstrating the nontameness of arcs. Some time later (1962) Fox and Harrold [14] succeeded in completely classifying a special class of wild arcs, th...

M ost local governments in the United States manage and maintain streets and roads as part of their everyday duties. How well are local governments handling their responsibilities with respect to nationally accepted traffic engineering procedures and standards? To find out how local agencies in Tennessee were doing, a survey of every city and county in the state was conducted during the fall of...

I-WLAN: Intelligent Wireless Local Area Networking by Mustafa Ergen Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering-Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences University of California, Berkeley Professor Pravin Varaiya, Chair Future wireless networks require intelligent components that can automate, scale and manage the network in order to handle the demand for ubiquitous access. In this dissertation, we...

This commentary addresses the statement that “the authors believe that the HRH [Human Resources for Health] Program can serve as a model for other initiatives that seek to address the shortage of qualified health professionals in low-income countries and strengthen the long-term capacity of local academic institutions.” I adopt the position of the devil’s advocate and ask whether a country, wit...
