Investigating Effect of Oil Revenues on Social Capital in Oil Rentier Countries: An Extreme Bounds Analysis Approach (EBA)
The volatility of oil revenues in rentier countries, due to the large share of oil revenue in their economies, affects many variables. Oil revenues can also affect social behavior and culture. Therefore, social capital, as the result of social networks and institutions, can be directly and indirectly affected by oil rents. The review of economic literature suggests that oil revenues could poten...
متن کاملMaking Architectural Analysis Reasonable
Software systems that integrate a set of concurrent and possibly distributed components are becoming increasingly common. One architectural style that is often used in such systems is implicit invocation[1, 2]. In this style, a component communicates and passes control by announcing events, and these events are multicast to a set of consuming components that perform actions in response to event...
متن کاملMinimax Risk Bounds in Extreme Value Theory
Asymptotic minimax estimators of a positive extreme value index under zero-one loss are investigated in the classical i.i.d. setup. To this end, we prove the weak convergence of suitable local experiments with Pareto distributions as center of localization to a white noise model, which was previously studied in the context of nonparametric local density estimation and regression. From this resu...
متن کاملWhich Variables Explain Decisions on IMF Credit? An Extreme Bounds Analysis
This paper analyses which economic and political factors affect the chance that a country receives IMF credit or signs an agreement with the Fund. We use a panel model for 128 countries over the period 1972-1998. Our results, based on Extreme Bounds Analysis, suggest that it are mostly economic variables that are robustly related to IMF lending activity, while most political variables that have...
متن کاملBounds for the Average Lp-Extreme and the L∞-Extreme Discrepancy
The extreme or unanchored discrepancy is the geometric discrepancy of point sets in the d-dimensional unit cube with respect to the set system of axis-parallel boxes. For 2 ≤ p < ∞ we provide upper bounds for the average Lp-extreme discrepancy. With these bounds we are able to derive upper bounds for the inverse of the L∞-extreme discrepancy with optimal dependence on the dimension d and explic...
