Racial intermarriage pairings

Racial intermarriage pairings.

Most studies of racial intermarriage rely on the prevalence of intermarriage to measure the strength of group boundaries, without scrutinizing the nature of intermarriage pairings. Examination of intermarried couples' characteristics reveals (1) that intermarriages and endogamous marriages follow different patterns, and (2) that intermarriage pairings for some groups reflect a generalized racia...

Hyperelliptic Pairings

We survey recent research on pairings on hyperelliptic curves and present a comparison of the performance characteristics of pairings on elliptic curves and hyperelliptic curves. Our analysis indicates that hyperelliptic curves are not more efficient than elliptic curves for general pairing applications.

Residential Segregation and Black-White Intermarriage

Spatial separation of racial and ethnic groups may reduce the probability that mutually acceptable singles of di¤erent races meet each other in the marriage market, or it may have no e¤ect if market participants segments themselves. I …nd that people in more segregated cities are signi…cantly less likely to end up in a racially mixed marriage. I control for reverse causality and endogenous migr...

Height Pairings

generalizing the Neron-Tate pairing on abelian varieties. Note that our cycles are of a dimension where their expected intersection has dimension −1. Example 1.1 ([9], [3]) Let C/K be a smooth projective curve, with ∞ ∈ C(K) giving i : C ↪→ Pic(C). Let 〈·, ·〉NT : Pic(C)(K)×Pic(C)(K)→ R be the Neron-Tate height pairing, identifying P̂ic(A) ∼= Pic(A) via the theta divisor. Then, once we have defin...
