We show how methods from K-theory of operator algebras can be applied in a completely algebraic setting to define a bivariant, M∞-stable, homotopy-invariant, excisive Ktheory of algebras over a fixed unital ground ring H, (A, B) 7→ kk∗(A, B), which is universal in the sense that it maps uniquely to any other such theory. It turns out kk is related to C. Weibel’s homotopy algebraic K-theory, KH....

Capital Inflows , Liquidity and Bubbles Guillermo

Policymakers in Emerging Market economies (EMs) are facing a serious dilemma: while their economies are currently benefiting from a surge of capital inflows, they fear a replay of the 1990s and early 2000s when their economies underwent costly Sudden Stops (of capital inflows). A serious concern is that a capital‐inflow episode could give rise to "bubbles," i.e., an artificial or transitory inc...

U.S. airlines achieved a startling turnaround in 2009. Profits rose to $2.3 billion after a loss of $3.3 billion the year before. Also during 2009, the airlines collected $2.7 billion in baggage fees (U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics 2010). In other words, by charging separately for a service once associated with the price of a ticket, the airlines turned a potential loss into a profit....

INPAINTING THE COLORS By Guillermo Sapiro IMA

A framework for automatic image colorization, the art of adding color to a monochrome image or movie, is presented in this paper. The approach is based on considering the geometry and structure of the monochrome luminance input, given by its gradient information, as representing the geometry and structure of the whole colored version. The color is then obtained by solving a partial differential...
