This paper develops a framework for estimating preferences in a many-to-one matching market using only observed matches. I use pairwise stability and a vertical preference restriction on one side to identify preferences on both sides of the market. Counterfactual simulations are used to analyze the antitrust allegation that the centralized medical residency match is responsible for salary depre...

background and aims. occlusal rims are used to determine the jaw relationships in the transverse and vertical dimensions and estimate the inter-occlusal distance in edentulous patients. it is important to find ways to determine the height and shape of the occlusal rims correctly. the aim of the present study was to determine the exact distance between the oral cavity floor and the incisal edges...

to effectively design daylight in buildings, daylight availability data are necessary. although there is a great potential for daylight energy in iran, its use has been hampered by the absence of measured data. in this paper the illuminance data on the vertical south facing surfaces of tehran were estimated using the iesna model. for this propose an illuminance measuring set was used in order t...

It has been debated whether the Global Fund (GF), which is supporting the implementation of programs on the prevention and control of HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis (TB) and malaria, should consider the value-for-money (VFM) for programs/interventions that they are supporting. In this paper, we critically analyze the uses of economic information for GF programs, not only to ensure accountability to the...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of vertical prism induced stress on binocular visual evoked potentials. methods: using checkerboard stimulus patterns in two spatial frequencies (sfs) of 0.48 cpd as a low sf and 2.18 cpd as a moderate sf reversing with temporal frequency of 4 hz, the effect of increasing visual stress using vertical prisms of 0, 1, 2 and 3 prism diopters on binocular visual evok...

As much as vertical transmission of microbial symbionts requires their deep integration into the host reproductive and developmental biology, symbiotic lifestyle might profoundly affect bacterial growth and proliferation. This review describes the reproductive oddities displayed by bacteria associated - more or less intimately - with multicellular eukaryotes.

My main area of research is combinatorics. I like not only its beauty as a subject but also its wide applicability throughout mathematics and science. I have diverse mathematical interests, and combinatorics is the bridge that connects them. Even though I have a predilection for enumerative questions, I have also worked on algebraic combinatorics, computational biology, number theory, and combi...

Vertical convection (VC) under the action of vertical vibration in a square cavity has been investigated using direct numerical simulation. The simulations are conducted with Prandtl number Pr fixed at 4.38 and Rayleigh Ra ranging from [Formula: see text] to text]. To examine influence vibration, dimensionless frequency is varied range small amplitude First, for low frequency, trivial results o...
