Contest architecture

A contest architecture specifies how the contestants are split among several subcontests whose winners compete against each other (while other players are eliminated). We compare the performance of such dynamic schemes to that of static winner-take-all contests from the point of view of a designer who maximizes either the expected total effort or the expected highest effort. For the case of a l...

Fifth Force from Fifth Dimension

Using a novel coordinate system, we rederive the eld equations and equations of motion for 5-dimensional relativity in the general case where the metric can depend on all 5 coordinates (i.e., Kaluza-Klein theory without the cylinder restriction). We show that in general the fth dimension produces a new dynamical force in 4-dimensional spacetime. This timelike fth force is proportional to the 4-...
