A low-complexity ESPRIT algorithm for direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation is devised in this work. Unlike the conventional subspace based methods, the proposed scheme only needs to calculate two sub-matrices of the sample covariance matrix, that is, R11∈C K and R21∈C K , avoiding its complete computation. Here,M is the number of sensors of the array, K satisfies P≤K≤minðM;NÞ with P being the ...

The title compound, C12H11NO3, is an inter-mediate used in the synthesis of many drug-like mol-ecules. The mol-ecule is almost planar, with the phenyl ring inclined to the isoxazole ring by 0.5 (1)°. The ester moiety has an extended conformation and is almost in the same plane with respect to the isoxazole ring, as indicated by the O-C-C-N torsion angle of -172.86 (18)°. In the crystal, mol-ecu...

This paper quantitatively investigates the optimal capital income taxation in the general equilibrium overlapping generations model, which incorporates characteristics of housing and the U.S. preferential tax treatment for owner-occupied housing. Housing tax policy is found to have a substantial effect on how capital income should be taxed. Given the U.S. preferential tax treatment for owner-oc...

Like other macroeconomic variables, residential investment has become much less volatile since the mid-1980s (recent experience notwithstanding.) This paper explores the role of structural change in this decline. Since the the early 1980s there have been many changes in the underlying structure of the economy, including those in the mortgage market which have made it easier to acquire a home. W...

Different statistical multifragmentation models have been used to study isoscaling, i.e., the factorization of the isotope ratios from two reactions, into fugacity terms of proton and neutron number, R21(N ,Z) 5Y 2(N ,Z)/Y 1(N ,Z)5C exp(aN1bZ). Even though the primary isotope distributions are quite different from the final distributions due to evaporation from the excited fragments, the values...

Portland, Oregon, is well known for its relatively unique urban growth boundary (UGB), a very tight form of zoning designed to control sprawl. The UGB has recently been criticized for raising housing prices. From a theoretical perspective, the UGB will put upward pressure on land and thus housing prices, but the magnitude of this effect is uncertain. Increasing density should substitute for hig...

We explore the impact of local economic conditions on the type and size of newly constructed housing. A slightly modified standard open monocentric city model predicts that, as long as land use regulation is relatively lax, positive local income shocks cause construction of more multifamily housing and smaller units. Exploiting metro area-level American Housing Survey (AHS) data from 1984 to 20...

The main objective of this paper is to give an overview of the most commonly used housing policies and to illustrate their economic impact. To facilitate the analysis, we first introduce a simple two-period housing demand model for owner-occupied houses and rental houses. We then add a standard stock-flow housing supply model. Using this modelling framework, we explain the qualitative effects o...

Immigrant Homeownership and Immigration Status: Evidence from Spain Because of the many advantages of homeownership for immigrants and for the communities where immigrants reside, a variety of countries have implemented policies that facilitate immigrant homeownership. Although these policies hinge on immigration status, the link between immigration status and homeownership is yet to be careful...
