High resolution simulations within the GOY shell model are used to study various scaling relations for turbulence. A power-law relation between the second-order intermittency correction and the crossover from the inertial to the dissipation range is confirmed. Evidence is found for the intermediate viscous dissipation range proposed by Frisch and Vergassola. It is emphasized that insufficient d...

Recent analyses of transaction-level data sets have generated new stylized facts on price setting and greatly in‡uenced the empirical openand closed-economy macroeconomics literatures. This work has uncovered marked heterogeneity in price stickiness, demonstrated that even non-zero price changes do not fully "pass through" exchange rate shocks, and o¤ered evidence of synchronization in the timi...

The Method of Model Microfields proposed by Brissaud and Frisch is applied to calculate Stark broadened profiles of hydrogen lines in the static ion approximation. Numerical results for L-a, H-a, and H-ß are found to be in good agreement with those derived from the unified theory by Vidal, Cooper, and Smith over a wide range of plasma densities and temperatures. This demon­ strates that reliabl...

Lexically specific constraints are indexed versions of constraints that apply only when a morpheme that bears that index is evaluated by the grammar. They have been used in Optimality Theory to deal with exceptions (e.g. Hammond 1995, Kraska-Szlenk 1997, Pater 2000), and have also been applied to the lexical strata of Japanese and other languages (Fukuzawa 1999, Itô and Mester 1999, 2001, Gelba...

Flow typing is becoming a popular mechanism for typing existing programs written in untyped languages (e.g. JavaScript, Racket, Groovy). Such systems require intersections for the true-branch of a type test, negations for the false-branch, and unions to capture the flow of information at meet points. Type systems involving unions, intersections and negations require a subtype operator which is ...

This draft chapter, prepared for inclusion in the (prospective) Handbook of Production Economics, Vol. 1 (Theory), edited by Subash Ray, Robert Chambers, and Subal Kumbhakar, analyses recent developments in the modeling of pollution-generating technologies. We first lay out the inadequacies of the traditional, single-equation representations of models of such technologies prominently associated...

Some earlier studies demonstrate that the size distribution of stratus cloud particles can be retrieved using radar reflectivity factor from millimeter-wave cloud radar and liquid water path estimated from microwave radiometer radiance measurements (White et al. 1991; Frisch et al. 1995, 1998). One source of error in these retrievals is the use of a climatological value for the geometric standa...
