BUNDLED REBATES AS EXCLUSION RATHER THAN PREDATION

Quantization as Selection Rather than Eigenvalue Problem

Deprenyl Can Mediate Neuronal Protection Rather than Neuronal Rescue

Background and Objective: Deprenyl is a drug for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, where the dopaminergic neurons are the target of this drug. Several reports also documented that deprenyl has an effect on the sensory and motor neurons. There are some reports about the mode of action of deprenyl on m...

Ecology rather than psychology explains co-occurrence of predation and border patrols in male chimpanzees.

The intense arousal and excitement shown by adult male chimpanzees, Pan troglodytes, during territorial attacks on other chimpanzees and predation upon monkeys suggest that similar psychological mechanisms may be involved. Specifically, it has been proposed that hunting behaviour in chimpanzees evolved from intraspecies aggression. Over 32 years, chimpanzees at Gombe National Park, Tanzania wer...

Quantity “forcing” and Exclusion: Bundled Discounts and Nonlinear Pricing

Quantity “forcing” refers to pricing schemes that reward a buyer for purchasing some threshold quantity from a firm. When there are significant scale economies and buyers are unable to coordinate, economic theory shows that a firm can profitably use quantity forcing to exclude rivals, reducing overall welfare and harming some buyers. Inducements to reach the quantity threshold may be provided t...

It is also imprecise, once it does not refer to the fluids and structures being considered. By contrast, the term perihemorheology implies the rheology of flui...
