چکیده

We study strategic transmission of rival information among individuals who share altruistic relations. Information sharing naturally takes the form of word-of-mouth communication. Yet, the social forces that promote communication can also undermine it. Indeed, larger social networks may share less information, and better-connected individuals may get less information. Therefore, when forming networks, individuals strategically cluster into groups that share information and trust by limiting other connections as a commitment to secrecy. ∗S. Lee, NYU, [email protected]; P. Persson, Columbia University, [email protected]. “Of course I can keep secrets. It’s the people I tell them to that can’t keep them.”—Anthony Haden Guest

Quaternionic Product of Circles and Cycles and Octonionic Product for Pairs of Circles

This paper concerns with a product of circles induced by the quaternionic product considered in a projective manner. Several properties of this composition law are derived and on this way we arrive at some special numbers as roots or powers of unit. We extend this product to cycles as oriented circles and to pairs of circles by using the algebra of octonions. Three applications of the given pro...

Elastic Behavior of Functionally Graded Two Tangled Circles Chamber

This paper presents the numerical elastic solution for a real problem, functionally graded chamber of hydraulic gear pumps under internal pressure. Because of the similarity and complexity for the considering geometry, a bipolar cylindrical coordinate system is used to extract the governing equations. The material properties are considered to vary along the two tangled circles with a power-law ...

Journals and conferences in discourse

It is a true pleasure to introduce this issue. It is simply interesting and insightful.
