This work extends to processes with finite moments or order p, 1 < P < 2 and to symmetric a-stable processes, 1 < a < 2, some of the basic linear theory known for processes with finite second moments (p=2) and for Gaussian processes (a=2). Here the IIcovariationll plays a role analogous to the covariance. Specifically, stochastic integrals of two types are introduced and studied for p-th order ...

The use of the partial least squares (PLS) approach for structural equation modeling (SEM) has been experiencing explosive growth, particularly in the last few years. The calculation of P values is extensively used for hypothesis testing in PLS-SEM. Such calculation typically relies on standard errors estimated via bootstrapping. This leads to unstable P values and prohibitive computational dem...

We consider operations between two multiplicative, complex orientable cohomology theories. Under suitable hypotheses, we construct a map from unstable to stable operations, left-inverse to the usual map from stable to unstable operations. In the main example, where the target theory is one of the Morava K-theories, this provides a simple and explicit description of a splitting arising from the ...

The stable marriage problem and its extensions have been extensively studied, with much of the work in the literature assuming that agents fully know their own preferences over alternatives. This assumption however is not always practical (especially in large markets) and agents usually need to go through some costly deliberation process in order to learn their preferences. In this paper we ass...

2-level polytopes naturally appear in several areas of pure and applied mathematics, including combinatorial optimization, polyhedral combinatorics, communication complexity, and statistics. In this paper, we present a study of some 2-level polytopes arising in combinatorial settings. Our first contribution is proving that f0(P )fd−1(P ) ≤ d2 for a large collection of families of such polytopes...

BACKGROUND Myocardial ischemia is one of several causes of prolonged QT dispersion. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect that percutaneous coronary intervention has on the depolarization and repolarization parameters of surface electrocardiography in patients with chronic stable angina. METHODS We assessed the effects of full revascularization in patients with chronic stable angin...

Given an instance I of the classical Stable Marriage problem with Incomplete preference lists (smi), a maximum cardinality matching can be larger than a stable matching. In many large-scale applications of smi, we seek to match as many agents as possible. This motivates the problem of finding a maximum cardinality matching in I that admits the smallest number of blocking pairs (so is “as stable...

Let G be a connected complex semi-simple group, B ⊂ G a Borel subgroup, and T ⊂ B a maximal torus. We construct a class of smooth T stable subvarieties inside the flag variety G/B, each of which is an embedding of a product of projective lines.
