Maultsby’s Rational Behavior Therapy: Background, Description, Practical Applications, and Recent Developments

Recent Developments in Matching Theory and Its Practical Applications

In recent years, many developments have been made in matching theory and its applications to market design. This paper surveys them and suggests possible research directions. The main focus is on the advances in matching theory that try to solve market design problems in practical markets where the classic theory is inapplicable. Specifically, we discuss the recent theory of matching in large m...

Superstatistics: Recent developments and applications

We review some recent developments which make use of the concept of ‘superstatistics’, an effective description for nonequilibrium systems with a varying intensive parameter such as the inverse temperature. We describe how the asymptotic decay of stationary probability densities can be determined using a variational principle, and present some new results on the typical behaviour of correlation...

Rational Points on Hyperelliptic Curves: Recent Developments

We give an overview over recent results concerning rational points on hyperelliptic curves. One result says that ‘most’ hyperelliptic curves of high genus have very few rational points. Another result gives a bound on the number of rational points in terms of the genus and the Mordell-Weil rank, provided the latter is sufficiently small. The first result relies on work by Bhargava and Gross on ...

Phytoestrogens: recent developments

Phytoestrogens are polyphenolic non-steroidal plant compounds with estrogen like activity exerted through estrogen receptors. These receptors are distributed in several tissues such as male and female reproductive systems, bones, cardiovascular and central nervous systems. These natural phenolic compounds include isoflavonoids, flavonoids, lignans and stilbenes. Isoflavonoids are the most studi...
