Stochastic Recursive Zero-Sum Differential Game and Mixed Zero-Sum Differential Game Problem
Under the notable Issacs’s condition on the Hamiltonian, the existence results of a saddle point are obtained for the stochastic recursive zero-sum differential game and mixed differential game problem, that is, the agents can also decide the optimal stopping time. Themain tools are backward stochastic differential equations BSDEs and double-barrier reflected BSDEs. As the motivation and applic...
متن کاملHealth Care System Reforms in Developing Countries
This article proposes a critical but non-systematic review of recent health care system reforms in developing countries. The literature reports mixed results as to whether reforms improve the financial protection of the poor or not. We discuss the reasons for these differences by comparing three representative countries: Mexico, Vietnam, and China. First, the design of the health care system re...
متن کاملHealth-care-associated infections in developing countries.
Health-care-associated infections in developing countries are a serious issue that is scarcely addressed in the scientifi c literature. Hence, the systematic review and meta-analysis in The Lancet by Benedetta Allegranzi and colleagues from WHO, which assessed the epidemiology of health-care-associated infections, is impressive. In this study, the investigators analysed pooled data from 220 sel...
متن کاملEducation and Health Care in Developing Countries
This thesis is a collection of three essays on education and health in developing countries. Chapter 1 shows that increasing perceived returns to education strengthens incentives for schooling when agents underestimate the actual returns. I conducted a field experiment in Madagascar to study alternative ways to provide additional information about the returns to education. I randomly assigned s...
متن کاملAging theories and the zero-sum game.
For generations programmed mammal aging was widely thought to be theoretically impossible. However, new evolutionary mechanics concepts have led to renewed interest in programmed aging resulting in a schism between programmed and non-programmed proponents. This article argues that this lack of consensus is damaging medical research and therefore steps should be taken to pro-actively resolve the...
