Can robust pro-female policies be identified when the true mod

چکیده
This paper seeks to identify parameter changes which are robust in the sense that they benefit women relative to men in a wide range of household models. The models considered are unitary, Nashbargaining and non-cooperative with and without cash transfers. Reductions in the relative price of ‘female’ consumer goods prices are robust; increases in relative wages are highly non-robust. Increases in the relative returns to domestic activities and transfers of financial, physical, and human assets to women are weakly robust in that they are unlikely to hurt women and benefit them in some cases though they make no difference in others. 1

Frame Design Using Focuss with Method of Optimal Directions (mod)
The equation b = Ax + n where the columns of A form an overcomplete set, i.e. the system is underdetermined, and with a sparsity constraint on x can be important to solve in many applications. It can be used as a convenient signal representation model useful for compression, and it can also be a model for the true underlying system that produced the available dataset b. It is hard enough to sol...
متن کاملFermat’s Test
Fermat’s little theorem says for prime p that ap−1 ≡ 1 mod p for all a 6≡ 0 mod p. A naive extension of this to a composite modulus n ≥ 2 would be: for a 6≡ 0 mod n, an−1 ≡ 1 mod n. Let’s call this “Fermat’s little congruence.” It may or may not be true. When n is prime, it is true for all a 6≡ 0 mod n. But when n is composite it usually has many counterexamples. Example 1.1. When n = 15, the t...
متن کاملA note on the new basis in the mod 2 Steenrod algebra
The Mod $2$ Steenrod algebra is a Hopf algebra that consists of the primary cohomology operations, denoted by $Sq^n$, between the cohomology groups with $mathbb{Z}_2$ coefficients of any topological space. Regarding to its vector space structure over $mathbb{Z}_2$, it has many base systems and some of the base systems can also be restricted to its sub algebras. On the contrary, in ...

The aim of this paper is robust identification of smart foam, as an electroacoustic transducer, considering unmodeled dynamics due to nonlinearities in behaviour at low frequencies and measurement noise at high frequencies as existent uncertainties. Set membership estimation combined with model error modelling technique is used where the approach is based on worst case scenario with unknown but...

Expended Abstract Introduction: An issue which is often recurring in discussion on development is whether the main focus of development strategies should be on growth or on poverty and/or inequality. The goal of development strategies can be put in two statements. “First, the rapid elimination of absolute poverty, under all forms, is a meaningful goal for development Second, the reduction of a...
