TO THE EDITOR—We read with interest the letter by Bauer and colleagues commenting on the need for cost-justification of new diagnostic tests in the field of infectious diseases [1], such as the recently US Food and Drug Administration–approved T2Candida panel for diagnosis of candidemia [2]. Indeed, the new alternatives for disease diagnosis [3] contribute to the exponential rise of healthcare ...

We study the optimal combination of corporate tax rate and tax base in a model of a small open economy with heterogeneous firms. We show that it is optimal for the small country’s government to effectively subsidize capital inputs by granting a tax allowance in excess of the true costs of capital. Economic integration reduces the optimal capital subsidy and drives low-productivity firms from th...

A Volume Maximizing Canonical Surface in 3-space I. C. Bauer and F. Catanese

At the onset of surface theory surfaces in 3-space, and especially canonical surfaces in 3-space, occupied a central role. In particular, this study led to the famous Noether inequality K ≥ 2pg − 4, while Castelnuovo observed that if the canonical map of a minimal smooth surface S is birational (obviously then pg ≥ 4) the inequality K ≥ 3pg − 7 must hold true. These are the lower bounds for sur...

Bauer-Berson-Feiertag attack revisited

We show that Shoup and Rubin’s protocols are not secure against the BBF attack proposed by Bauer, Berson, and Feiertag, and propose an amendment. Furthermore, our results indicate that both Bellare and Rogaway’s security and Paulson’s security do not imply the security against the BBF attack.
