An unexpected separation result in Linearly Bounded Arithmetic

The theories Si1(α) and T i 1(α) are the analogues of Buss’ relativized bounded arithmetic theories in the language where every term is bounded by a polynomial, and thus all definable functions grow linearly in length. For every i, a Σbi+1(α)-formula TOP (a), which expresses a form of the total ordering principle, is exhibited that is provable in S 1 (α), but unprovable in Ti1(α). This is in co...

Parity and Fermions in Front-Form: An Unexpected Result

We show that under the operation of parity the front-form (1/2, 0) and (0, 1/2) Weyl spinors (massive or massless) do not get interchanged. This has the important consequence that if a frontform theory containing (1/2, 0)⊕ (0, 1/2) representation space has to be parity covariant then one must study the evolution of a physical system not only along x but also along the x direction. As a result o...

An Unexpected Result of Obesity Treatment: Orlistat-Related Acute Pancreatitis

Orlistat is a pancreatic lipase inhibitor which is used to treat obesity. Due to the increasing prevalence of obesity, orlistat use is thought to rise progressively. We report an interesting case caused by orlistat use caught in the early stages of acute pancreatitis through imaging; in addition, the case had significantly elevated serum amylase levels. A 54-year-old male who had a history of o...

Unexpected Banking Loan Losses in an Estimated DSGE Model

  In spite of realizing more loss than expected and reserved provision in loaning process, some of our banks avoid recognizing the losses, through extension of the loan contracts and consequently do not shift the realized losses to their capital. With this in mind, the major objective of this study is to design a frame-work, through which we can explain the differences between the results of t...
