We examine the effect of risk tolerance downstream firms (i.e., customers) on investment inefficiency upstream suppliers). Using pilot licensing status CEOs as a proxy for their inherent tolerance, we find that customer led by are associated with suppliers’ inefficiency, where is more pronounced when suppliers have less bargaining power over customers. Our dynamic analysis confirms causative re...

We studied the relationship between the use of three detoxification pathways and urine pH and the tolerance of desert woodrats from two populations to a mixture of naturally occurring plant secondary metabolites (mostly phenolics) in resin from creosote bush (Larrea tridentata). The two populations of desert woodrats came from the Mojave desert (Mojave woodrats), where woodrats consume creosote...

This study is a first attempt to investigate the impact of urban contamination on metal tolerance of heterotrophic river biofilms using a short-term test based on β-glucosidase activity. Tolerance levels to Cu, Cd, Zn, Ni and Pb were evaluated for biofilms collected at three sites along an urban gradient in the Seine river (France). Metallic pollution increased along the river, but concentratio...

Classical structure of rough set theory was first formulated by Z. Pawlak in [6]. The foundation of its object classification is an equivalence binary relation and equivalence classes. The upper and lower approximation operations are two core notions in rough set theory. They can also be seenas a closure operator and an interior operator of the topology induced by an equivalence relation on a u...

An algebra A is tolerance trivial if Tol A = ConA where Tol A is the lattice of all tolerances on A. If A contains a Mal'cev function compatible with each T Tol A, then A is tolerance trivial. We investigate nite algebras satisfying also the converse statement. Let R be a binary relation on a set A and f be an n-ary function on A. We say that f is compatible with R or that R is compatible with ...

To test whether hypertension can cause hyperinsulinemia or insulin resistance, we performed intravenous glucose tolerance tests at 1 month and euglycemic clamps at 3 months after induction of two-kidney, one clip renovascular hypertension in rats. At 1 month, systolic pressure was higher in 21 clipped than in 12 control animals (161 +/- 5 mm Hg, range 134-187 mm Hg versus 119 +/- 3 mm Hg, range...
