چکیده

Manski (1997) and Manski and Pepper (2000) gave sharp bounds on causal effects under the assumptions of monotone treatment response (MTR) and monotone treatment selection (MTS). VanderWeele (2008) provided bounds for binary treatment under an assumption of monotone confounding (MC). We discuss the relation between MC and MTS and provide bounds under various combinations of these assumptions. We show that MC and MTS coincide for a binary treatment, but MC does not imply MTS for a treatment variable with more than two levels.

Some results on $L$-complete lattices

The paper deals with special types of $L$-ordered sets, $L$-fuzzy complete lattices, and fuzzy directed complete posets.First, a theorem for constructing monotone maps is proved, a characterization for monotone maps on an $L$-fuzzy complete lattice is obtained, and it's proved that if $f$ is a monotone map on an $L$-fuzzy complete lattice $(P;e)$, then the least fixpoint of $f$ is meet of a spe...

Weak differentiability of solutions to SDEs with semi-monotone drifts

‎In this work we prove Malliavin differentiability for the solution to an SDE with locally Lipschitz and semi-monotone drift‎. ‎To prove this formula‎, ‎we construct a sequence of SDEs with globally Lipschitz drifts and show that the $p$-moments of their Malliavin derivatives are uniformly bounded‎.

A Hybrid Proximal Point Algorithm for Resolvent operator in Banach Spaces

Equilibrium problems have many uses in optimization theory and convex analysis and which is why different methods are presented for solving equilibrium problems in different spaces, such as Hilbert spaces and Banach spaces. The purpose of this paper is to provide a method for obtaining a solution to the equilibrium problem in Banach spaces. In fact, we consider a hybrid proximal point algorithm...
