This paper presents an extension of the Fisher Separation Theorem applicable in multiperiod, "partially complete" markets where some, but not all, risks may be hedged by trading securities. Given necessary and sufficient conditions on preferences, an investor contemplating investments in productive opportunities (or projects) and financial securities can decompose this problem into production a...

Previous reports have suggested that the level of serious violence In psychiatric patients Is low (Pearson et al, 1986). However, there Is now concern that the level of violence Is Increasing (James et al, 1990; Omérovet al, 1990). Violence has obvious undesirable effects (eg. Increased staff and patient stress and a generally poor atmosphere on the ward), and may also be associated with alter...

This study was undertaken to investigate the protective effect of Liv.52, a herbal formulation, on various serum and liver marker enzymes, lipid peroxidation and histological changes in the liver of male albino rats suffering long-term carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) poisoning. It was observed that the activities of serum marker enzymes, hepatic enzymes and NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation were s...

Oral administration of Septilin was found to protect mice from cyclophosphamide-induced leukopenia. Total leukocyte counts in Septilin treated animals on day 12 were 2400 cells/mm which was significantly higher (p<0.005) compared to controls (700 cells/mm) and reached the base line value on day 16 (12,000 cells/mm). The bone marrow cellularity was also significantly higher compared to controls....

Purpose: To determine the extent to which personal characteristics and “person factors” predict symptom distress during the first cycle

cently, the idea and the emphasis of probiotics has become more and more important. Probiotics can be applied to humans or other animals solely or by the mixture of living strains to ameliorate the balance of the indigenous microbial phase in the host (Marteau and Boutron-Ruault, 2002; Sanders, 1998). The most popular probiotics used commercially are lactic acid bacteria (Shortt, 1999). Lactic ...

n e−βEn 〈n| T O(x)O†(0) |n〉 . Here Zβ ≡ tre−βH is the thermal partition function. Check that the zero temperature (β →∞) limit reproduces our previous result. Assume that O = O† if you wish. The idea is again to insert a resolution of the identity in between the operators. All the steps as for the vacuum correlators go through, the only difference being that instead of arriving at a sum of squa...

We study dynamic committee bargaining over an infinite horizonwith discounting. In each period, a committee proposal is generated by a random recognition rule, the committee chooses between the proposal and a status quo by majority rule, and the voting outcome in period t becomes the status quo in period t + 1. We study symmetric Markov equilibria of the resulting game and conduct an experiment...
