The culturally widespread verbal count list (“one, two, three...”), deployed in accord with what Gelman & Gallistel (1978) call the “counting principles,” represents the positive integers1. The counting principles provide an account of how the count list encodes the successor function; i.e. if a numeral “n” refers to cardinal value n and “p” immediately follows “n” in the count list then “p” re...

This paper uses a unique data set of monthly new vehicle sales by detailed model from 19782007, and implements a new identification strategy to estimate the effect of the price of gasoline on consumer demand for fuel economy. We control for unobserved vehicle and consumer characteristics by using within model-year changes in the price of gasoline and vehicle sales. We find a significant demand ...

A method is suggested for the calculation of the DeWitt-Seeley-Gilkey (DWSG) coefficients for the operator √ −∇2 + V (x) basing on a generalization of the pseudodifferential operator technique. The lowest DWSG coefficients for the operator √ −∇2 + V (x) are calculated by using the method proposed. It is shown that the method admits a generalization to the case of operators of the type (−∇2 + V ...
