Does Classical Competition Explain the Statistical Features of Firm Growth ?
We express the idea of classical competition in a statistical equilibrium model, where the tendency for competition to equalize profit rates results in an exponential power (or Subbotin) distribution. The model supports and extends recent evidence on the Laplace distribution of growth rates in firm size. We also find tent-shaped distributions in the size growth rates of Forbes Global 2000 compa...
متن کاملDoes quantum chaos explain quantum statistical mechanics?
If a many-body quantum system approaches thermal equilibrium from a generic initial state, then the expectation value 〈ψ(t)|Ai|ψ(t)〉, where |ψ(t)〉 is the system’s state vector and Ai is an experimentally accessible observable, should approach a constant value which is independent of the initial state, and equal to a thermal average of Ai at an appropriate temperature. We show that this is the c...
متن کاملthe impact of skopos on syntactic features of the target text
the present study is an experimental case study which investigates the impacts, if any, of skopos on syntactic features of the target text. two test groups each consisting of 10 ma students translated a set of sentences selected from advertising texts in the operative and informative mode. the resulting target texts were then statistically analyzed in terms of the number of words, phrases, si...
15 صفحه اولHow arousal influences neural competition: What dual competition does not explain.
We argue that although the "dual competition" model is useful when considering interactions between emotional and neutral stimuli, it fails to account for the influence of emotional arousal on perceptual or goal-directed behavior involving neutral stimuli. We present the "arousal-biased competition" framework as an alternative that accounts for both scenarios.
متن کاملDeterminants of New Firm Formation: Does Location Matter?
The link between location features and the propensity to start a new firm is a subject that did not get much attention in Iran until recently. This paper is the first attempt on this proposition and is concerned with deliberating the effect of demographical and industrial characteristics of location on start-up rates in Iranian manufacturing industries. To fulfill this aim, regional panel data ...
