The Ratchet E¤ect Re-examined: A Learning Perspective
We examine the ratchet e¤ect in a situation where both principal and agent are uncertain about the di¢ culty of the job, and must learn this over time. Since the agent can always increase his future continuation value by shirking, this must be deterred by higher powered incentives today. However, with a continuum of e¤ort levels, high powered incentives provide an incentive for the agent to ove...
متن کاملRegular-expression derivatives re-examined
Regular-expression derivatives are an old, but elegant, technique for compiling regular expressions to deterministic finite-state machines. It easily supports extending the regular-expression operators with boolean operations, such as intersection and complement. Unfortunately, this technique has been lost in the sands of time and few computer scientists are aware of it. In this paper, we reexa...
متن کاملVacuum charge fractionization re-examined
We consider a model of a quantized fermion field that is based on the Dirac equation in one dimensional space and re-examine how the fermion number of the vacuum, or the vacuum charge, varies when an external potential is switched on. With this model, fractionization of the vacuum charge has been illustrated in the literature by showing that the external potential can change the vacuum charge f...
متن کاملCerebral arteriovenous shunts re-examined.
Cerebral A rteriovenous Shunts Re-examined • Cerebral arteriovenous (A-V) shunts have been described in some histological studies, but their existence has been denied in others. Previous attempts to detect the presence and amount of A-V shunting using radioactive microspheres have suggested that large amounts of blood could bypass cerebral capillaries in this fashion. A reappraisal seemed indic...
متن کاملNaturalness Re-examined: Implications for Supersymmetry Searches
We discuss the origin of ”focus points” in the scalar mass RGEs of the MSSM and their implications for collider searches. We present a new exact analytic solution to the homogeneous system of scalar mass RGEs in the MSSM for general tan β. This is then used to prove that the focus point for m2Hu depends only on the value of the top Yukawa coupling at the weak scale (not its value at the GUT sca...
