Some Observations on Dirac Measure-Preserving Transformations and their Results
Dirac measure is an important measure in many related branches to mathematics. The current paper characterizes measure-preserving transformations between two Dirac measure spaces or a Dirac measure space and a probability measure space. Also, it studies isomorphic Dirac measure spaces, equivalence Dirac measure algebras, and conjugate of Dirac measure spaces. The equivalence classes of a Dirac ...
متن کاملFormal Methods of Transformations
The goal of this Dagstuhl seminar was to gather researchers working on the theory and practice of transformations (also know as transductions) of word and tree structures, which are realised by transducers (automata with outputs). This seminar was motivated by recent advances and breakthrough results, both in the settings of words and trees. Seminar April 2–5, 2017 – http://www.dagstuhl.de/1714...
متن کاملPregnancy-related dropouts and gender inequality in education: a life-table approach and application to Cameroon.
In this study, I used a life-table approach to estimate how much hypothetical reductions in pregnancy-related dropouts would help close the gender gap in educational attainment. Using the schooling histories of 6,686 pupils, I partitioned Cameroon's gender gap in education into "pregnancy-related" and "non-pregnancy-related" components and simulated the impact of reductions in pregnancy-related...
متن کاملGrowth, Inequality and Poverty Relationships
Growth, Inequality and Poverty Relationships This paper examines the causal relationship between inequality and a number of macroeconomic variables frequently found in the inequality and growth literature. These include growth, openness, wages, and liberalisation. We review the existing cross-country empirical evidence on the effects of inequality on growth and the extent to which the poorest i...
متن کاملInequality measures and equitable locations
While making location decisions, the distribution of distances (outcomes) among the service recipients (clients) is an important issue. In order to comply with the minimization of distances as well as with an equal consideration of the clients, mean-equity approaches are commonly used. They quantify the problem in a lucid form of two criteria: the mean outcome representing the overall efficienc...
