Optimum currency area indices: evidence from the 1990s [PDF]

, 2003
In this paper the authors calculate OCA-indexes for industrial countries in an effort to estimate the benefit-cost ratio of adopting a common currency. The results correspond to the estimation of Bayoumi and Eichengreen (1997b) and show that the ranking ...

Efficient evaluation of decoherence rates in complex Josephson circuits

, 2005
A complete analysis of the decoherence properties of a Josephson junction qubit is presented. The qubit is of the flux type and consists of two large loops forming a gradiometer and one small loop, and three Josephson junctions.

Bilateral symmetry in vision and influence of ocular surgical procedures on binocular vision: A topical review

Journal of Optometry, 2016
We analyze the role of bilateral symmetry in enhancing binocular visual ability in human eyes, and further explore how efficiently bilateral symmetry is preserved in different ocular surgical procedures. The inclusion criterion for this review was strict

Parallel evolution of TCP and B-class genes in Commelinaceae flower bilateral symmetry

EvoDevo, 2012
Background Flower bilateral symmetry (zygomorphy) has evolved multiple times independently across angiosperms and is correlated with increased pollinator specialization and speciation rates.

Arming in the global economy: The importance of trade with enemies and friends [PDF]

, 2019
We analyze how trade openness matters for interstate conflict over productive resources. Our analysis features a terms-of-trade channel that makes security policies trade-regime dependent.

Symmetrical placement of bilateral percutaneous bone‐anchored hearing systems via guide‐marker

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology
Objectives To investigate the use of a novel technique to estimate the symmetrical placement of percutaneous bone‐anchored hearing systems (BAHS) with a guide‐marker in patients undergoing bilateral surgery with this device.

A maternal dorsoventral prepattern revealed by an asymmetric distribution of ventralizing molecules before fertilization in Xenopus laevis

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
The establishment of the embryonic dorsoventral axis in Xenopus occurs when the radial symmetry around the egg’s animal-vegetal axis is broken to give rise to the typical symmetry of Bilaterians.

Directed or Undirected? A New Index to Check for Directionality of Relations in Socio-Economic Networks [PDF]

, 2006
This paper proposes a simple procedure to decide whether the empirically-observed adjacency or weights matrix, which characterizes the graph underlying a socio-economic network, is sufficiently symmetric (respectively, asymmetric) to justify an ...
