In this article, we study the tripartite Ramsey numbers of paths. We show that in any two-coloring of the edges of the complete tripartite graph K(n, n, n) there is a monochromatic path of length (1− o(1))2n. Since R(P2n+1,P2n+1) = 3n, this means that the length of the longest monochromatic path is about the same when two-colorings of K3n and K(n, n, n) are considered. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals,...

We show how to fix the newly discovered gauge-invariant string field theory to the light-cone gauge. We prove that this procedure leads to the well-known lightcone formulation of string field theory, with no additional propagating degrees of freedom.

Professor Joshua Schwartz’s theory can be a useful tool for integrating law & development (L&D) and comparative law, despite its limitations. He argues that exceptionalism tendency can be found in contract performance phase in US, which can be explained by the central role of the military procurement in the US public procurement law. He further suggests that developing countries should learn fl...

An adaptive service e-contract is an electronic agreement which is required to enable adaptive or agile service sourcing and provisioning. There are a number of e-contract metamodels that can be used to create a context speci c adaptive service e-contract. The challenge is which one to choose and adopt for adaptive services. This paper presents a review and comparison of well-known e-contract m...
