Normality: A Consistency Condition for Concurrent Objects

Linearizability is a consistency condition for concurrent objects (objects shared by concurrent processes) that exploits the semantics of abstract data types. It provides the illusion that each operation applied by concurrent processes takes eeect instantaneously at some point between the beginning and the end of its execution. When compared with other consistency conditions (such as sequential...

Normality Condition in Elasticity

Strong local minimizers with surfaces of gradient discontinuity appear in variational problems when the energy density function is not rank-one convex. In this paper we show that stability of such surfaces is related to stability outside the surface via a single jump relation that can be regarded as interchange stability condition. Although this relation appears in the setting of equilibrium el...

A utility representation theorem with weaker continuity condition

We prove that a preference relation which is continuous on every straight line has a utility representation if its domain is a convex subset of a finite dimensional vector space. Our condition on the domain of a preference relation is stronger than Eilenberg (1941) and Debreu (1959, 1964), but our condition on the continuity of a preference relation is strictly weaker than theirs. JEL classific...

Geometric Equivalences to the Asymptotic Normality Condition

The asymptotic normality of the sample mean of iid rv 's is equivalent to the well known conditions of Levy or Feller. More recently, additional equivalences have been developed in terms of the quantile function (qf). And other useful probabilistic equivalences could be cited. The emphasis here is on equivalences, and many other useful and informative equivalences will be developed. Many depend...
