Computing Best-Response Strategies in Infinite Games of Incomplete Information∗ 2004-5-24 21:40

We describe an algorithm for computing bestresponse strategies in a class of two-player infinite games of incomplete information, defined by payoffs piecewise linear in agents’ types and actions, conditional on linear comparisons of agents’ actions. We show that this class includes many well-known games including a variety of auctions and a novel allocation game. In some cases, the best-respons...

40-De­oxy-40(S)-iodo­rapamycin

The title compound, C(51)H(78)INO(12), contains a 29-membered ring incorporating amide, lactone and ester groups. It contains a total of 15 stereogenic centres. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming C(8) chains propagating in [100]. A weak intra-molecular O-H⋯O inter-action also occurs.

Two papers in the Journal this month report on results from the Christchurch Psychotherapy of Depression Study, a randomised controlled trial of interpersonal psychotherapy and cognitive–behavioural therapy (CBT) involving an out-patient sample. Luty et al (pp. 496–502) found no significant difference in efficacy between the two treatment groups, with overall improvements in depressive symptoma...

Specific stimulation of simian virus 40 late transcription in vitro by a cellular factor binding the simian virus 40 21-base-pair repeat promoter element.

We have identified a cellular transcription factor from uninfected HeLa cells that stimulates the simian virus 40 (SV40) late mode of transcription and specifically binds the SV40 21-base-pair repeat promoter element. In particular, the late SV40 transcription factor (LSF) stimulates transcription at initiation sites L325 and L264 of the SV40 late promoter, which are the major transcription sit...
