Henning, A.M. and H.C. Swart, Bounds relating generalized domination parameters, Discrete Mathematics 120 (1993) 933105. The domination number r(G) and the total domination number y,(G) of a graph G are generalized to the K,-domination number 7x,(G) and the total K,-domination number y;_(G) for n>2, where y(G)=y,,(G) and Y~(G)=~~~(G), K,-connectivity is defined and, for every integer n >2, the ...

The differences between electronics design through artificial evolution and through conventional methods have the consequence that evolved circuits may take unusual leverage from the physics of their medium of implementation. This can occur even if there is no tractable analytical model to predict how the overall behaviour will emerge from the interactions of the components. This is alluring fo...

Over the last decade we have witnessed the rise and fall of the so-called new economy stocks. One central question is to what extent these new firms differ from traditional firms. Empirical evidence suggests that stock returns are not normally distributed. In this article we investigate whether this also holds for portfolios of stocks from a growth industry. Furthermore, we will compare this ty...

A false feedback paradigm was used to produce a discrepancy between expected and "actual" tumescence among 57 sexually dysfunctional and 58 sexually functional men randomly assigned to one of four false tumescence feedback conditions: negative (NEG), neutral (NEU), positive (POS), or no (NO) feedback. Participants predicted an erection score before viewing an erotic film and then received false...
