When identical firms pay a fee to list prices at a price comparison site and can price discriminate between consumers who do and don’t use the site, prices listed at the site are dispersed but lower than at firms’ own websites. (JEL Numbers: D4, D8, M3, L13.

Measles virus induces an acute disease with rash and fever. Despite ongoing vaccination and elimination campaigns, the measles virus still sustains long-lasting transmission chains in Europe. Here we report the complete genome sequence of a wild-type measles virus isolated from a patient in Munich (MVi/Muenchen.DEU/19.13[D8]) during a German measles outbreak in 2013.

We prove the existence of a private value allocation for an economy with differential information where the commodity space may be infinite dimensional, and there is a continuum of states. We also discuss the existence, non-existence, and properties of two alternative value allocation concepts. JEL classification: D8; D82; C7; C71; C72

A 1 2 -arc-transitive graph is a vertexand edgebut not arc-transitive graph. In all known constructions of quartic 1 2 -arc-transitive graphs, vertex stabilizers are isomorphic to Z 2,Z 2 2 or to D8. In this article, for each positive integer m ≥ 1, an infinite family of quartic 1 2 -arctransitive graphs having vertex stabilizers isomorphic to Z m

In this paper we introduce a basic representation for the confluent Cherednik algebras HV, HIII, H7 III and H D8 III defined in arXiv:1307.6140. To prove faithfulness of this basic representation, we introduce the non-symmetric versions of the continuous dual qHahn, Al-Salam–Chihara, continuous big q-Hermite and continuous q-Hermite polynomials.

Hard-shell case: Using a (RKK)4 D8 peptide allows mineralization to occur under cytocompatible conditions. Thus individual Chlorella cells could be encapsulated within a SiO2 -TiO2 nanoshell with high cell viability (87 %). The encapsulated Chlorella showed an almost threefold increase in their thermo-tolerance after 2 h at 45 °C.

Transgenerational experience can affect a range of natural enemies’ life-history traits and be involved in the control developmental plasticity. As major egg parasitoid spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae), wasp Anastatus orientalis (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae) is effective at suppressing its host populations. The reproductive A. known to depend on photoperiod conditions,...
