Abstract This paper presents a dilemma for the additive model of reasons. Either accommodates disjunctive cases in which one ought to perform some act $$\phi $$ just case at least two factors obtains, or it conjunctive both obtains. The also arises revised that imprecisely weighted There exist and cases. Hence is extensionally inadequate. upshot most influential accounts how reasons accrue dete...

A simple and deep standard mathematical theorem asserts the existence, for any oneparameter differentiable group, of an additive parameter, such as the angle for rotations and the rapidity parameter for Lorentz transformations. The importance of this theorem for the applications of group theory in physics is stressed, and an elementary proof is given. The theorem then is applied to the construc...

Meiotic drive systems are associated with low-frequency chromosomal inversions. These expected to accumulate deleterious mutations due reduced recombination and low effective population size. We test this prediction using the ‘sex-ratio’ (SR) meiotic system of Malaysian stalk-eyed fly Teleopsis dalmanni. SR is a large inversion (or inversions) on X chromosome. In particular, we study eyespan in...

A possible experimental design for combination experiments is to compare the dose-response curve of a single agent with the corresponding curve of the same agent using either a fixed amount of a second one or a fixed dose ratio. No interaction is then often defined by a parallel shift of these curves. We have performed a systematic study for various types of dose-response relations both for the...

This article provides an elementary introduction to Gaussian channels and their capacities. We review results on the classical, quantum, and entanglement assisted capacities and discuss related entropic quantities as well as additivity issues. Some of the known results are extended. In particular, it is shown that the quantum conditional entropy is maximized by Gaussian states and that some imp...

We define and characterize the class of all weighted solidarity values. Our first characterization employs the classical axioms determining the solidarity value (except symmetry), that is, efficiency, additivity and the A-null player axiom, and two new axioms called proportionality and strong individual rationality. In our second axiomatization, the additivity and the A-null player axioms are r...

In this article we propose a test for additivity of a nonlinear conditionally heteroscedastic autoregressive model. A test is based on the unequal variance unbalanced design ANOVA scheme. Asymptotic distribution of the test statistic is derived and the test performance in finite samples is studied using simulation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first additivity test for a conditiona...

The generalized fuzzy valued θ-Choquet integrals will be established for the given μ-integrable fuzzy valued functions on a general fuzzy measure space, and the convergence theorems of this kind of fuzzy valued integral are being discussed. Furthermore, the whole of integrals is regarded as a fuzzy valued set function on measurable space, the double-null asymptotic additivity and pseudo-double-...
