Abstract We examine the effects of postulated metric on measurement well-being, by comparing, in (income, lifetime) space, two indexes: equivalent income index and lifetime index. The conditions under which exists are more restrictive than ones exists, but it is possible to define an alternative index, based reference levels, for non-existence problem less acute. Those indexes also shown satisf...

Joyce observed that the Alexander invariant and medial quandle of a classical knot are equivalent to each other, as invariants. In this paper, we discuss rather complicated extension Joyce’s observation several different quandles reduced (one-variable) modules associated with links. The theme is for links, provide stronger invariants than modules.

We make two observations on the motion of coupled particles in a periodic potential. Coupled pendula, or space-discretized sine-Gordon equation is an example this problem. Linearized spectrum synchronous turns out to have hidden asymptotic periodicity its dependence energy; gist first observation. Our second observation discovery special property purely sinusoidal potentials: linearization arou...

In this chapter the results are presented of estimating eq. (3.9) under the expectational hypotheses discussed above. These basic results are discussed in detail in this chapter, and then inch. 5, using eq. (3.9) as a starting point, various hypotheses regarding other possible determinants of short-run fluctuations in the number of workers employed are presented and tested. The data used in thi...

As long as eq. (4) is satisfied we can then perform a gauge transformation to set to 0 some components of h̄μν . Note that this would not be possible if Tμν 6= 0 (it would appear on the right hand side of eq. (1)), as ξ and h̄μν would then satisfy different equations. Let us thus choose a specific ξ to impose 4 conditions on h̄μν . In particular h̄→ h̄′ = h̄+ ξ ,μ μ so one can choose ξ0, say, to set ...

Some of the difficulties and misunderstandings that happen in accounting theory, practice, regulation and education are grounded in language and linguistics. As an illustration of this the Persian equivalent of 'accounting' is linguistically analysed to reveal how a mistranslation may cause difficulties in understanding and improving Iranian Accounting. This paper shows how Hesaabdaaree is not ...
