We consider population games played by procedurally rational players who, when revising their current strategy, test each of available strategies independently in a series random matches –i.e., battery tests–, and then choose the strategy that performed best this tests. This revision protocol leads to so-called payoff-sampling dynamics (aka test-all Best Experienced Payoff dynamics). In paper w...

We give a new proof of theorem Lo Faro concerning minimal counterexamples to the union-closed conjecture, and we prove some results “ε-version” maximal frequency in families.

We study electron transport through a single-molecule magnet (SMM) and the interplay of its anisotropic spin with quantized vibrational distortions of the molecule. Based on numerical renormalization group calculations we show that, despite the longitudinal anisotropy barrier and small transverse anisotropy, vibrational fluctuations can induce quantum spin-tunneling (QST) and a QST-Kondo effect...

Objective To estimate the extent to which psychophysical quantitative sensory test (QST) and patient factors (gender, age and comorbidity) predict pain, function and health status in people with shoulder disorders. To determine if there are gender differences for QST measures in current perception threshold (CPT), vibration threshold (VT) and pressure pain (PP) threshold and tolerance. Design...
