• Since Wilkie’s result [9] (which established that the elementary theory Texp of (R, exp) is model complete and o-minimal), many o-minimal expansions of the reals have been investigated. The problem of constructing nonarchimedean models of Texp (and more generally, of an ominimal expansion of the reals) gained much interest. • In [2] it was shown that fields of generalized power series cannot ...

The Extraordinary Magnetoresistance (EMR) effect is a change in the resistance of a device upon the application of a magnetic field in hybrid structures, consisting of a semiconductor and a metal. The underlying principle of this phenomenon is a change of the current path in the hybrid structure upon application of a magnetic field, due to the Lorentz force. Specifically, the ratio of current, ...

The usual focus in authorship studies is on authorship attribution, i.e. determining which author (of a given set) wrote a piece of unknown provenance. The usual setting involves a small number of candidate authors, which means that the focus quickly revolves around a search for features that discriminate among the candidates. Whether the features that serve to discriminate among the authors ar...

We have recently had the pleasure of travelling through several of the Pacific Island countries, looking at joint-venture development opportunities for pearl culture within the Small Island States on behalf of the Forum Secretariat. Part of this work involved examination of various tax and investment regimes, as they apply to pearl culture. The results were surprising for the dramatic differenc...
