Two factors having the same set of levels are said to be homologous. This paper aims to extend the domain of factorial models to designs that include homologous factors. In doing so, it is necessary rst to identify the characteristic property of those vector spaces that constitute the standard factorial models. We argue here that essentially every interesting statistical model speciied by a vec...

The Shapley value is one of the most important solution concepts in cooperative game theory. In coalitional games without externalities, it allows to compute a unique payoff division that meets certain desirable fairness axioms. However, in many realistic applications where externalities are present, Shapley’s axioms fail to indicate such a unique division. Consequently, there are many extensio...

The paper explores Paul’s engagement with the Scriptures of Israel from the point of view of (his sense of) marginality, which invites a postcolonial perspective on his hermeneutics. It first briefly considers the deployment of postcolonial criticism in biblical studies, followed by a consideration of the value of postcolonial theory for Paul’s biblical hermeneutics. Four areas where postcoloni...

Species distribution models (SDM) are widely used as indicators of different aspects geographical ranges for many purposes, from conservation to biogeographical and evolutionary analyses. However, these techniques susceptible various sources uncertainty. Data coverage, species’ ecology, the characteristics their geographic distributions can affect SDM results, often generating critical errors i...

1. Introduction Had I been more clever, and had the editors allowed it, this paper would appear entirely as marginalia, or at least with the more important points off in the margins, as in (1), where the ideal format for this paper is given:
