Smart Contracts Contracts [PDF]
Frontiers in Blockchain, 2020 This paper explores the connection between software contracts and smart contracts. Despite the assonance, these two terms denote quite different concepts: software contracts are logical properties of software components, while smart contracts are programs executed on blockchains. What is the relation between them?

Proceedings of the 24th ACM Conference on Economics and Computation, 2023 We explore the deliberate infusion of ambiguity into the design of contracts. We show that when the agent is ambiguity‐averse and hence chooses an action that maximizes their minimum utility, the principal can strictly gain from using an ambiguous contract, and this gain can be arbitrarily high.

The Complexity of Contracts [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Computing, 2020 We initiate the study of computing (near-)optimal contracts in succinctly representable principal-agent settings. Here optimality means maximizing the principal's expected payoff over all incentive-compatible contracts---known in economics as "second-best" solutions. We also study a natural relaxation to approximately incentive-compatible contracts. We

Pseudo-contractibility Of Weighted Lp -Algebras
Analele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2013 Let G be a locally compact group, 1 < p < ∞ and let ω be a weight function on G. Recently, we introduced the Lebesgue weighted Lp-algebra L1pω(G).

Various notions of module amenability on weighted semigroup algebras
Demonstratio Mathematica, 2022 Let SS be an inverse semigroup with the set of idempotents EE. In this article, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for the weighted semigroup algebra l1(S,ω){l}^{1}\left(S,\omega ) to be module approximately amenable (contractible) and module ...

Forum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2023 The action on the trace space induced by a generic automorphism of a suitable finite classifiable ${\mathrm {C}^*}$ -algebra is shown to be chaotic and weakly mixing.

Clinics in Colon and Rectal Surgery, 2006 Residents completing colon and rectal surgery training should take seriously the terms of contracts offered to them. Contracts should specify how and how much salary will be paid, what benefits the surgeon will receive, and what services are to be provided.

Proceedings of the 19th Australasian conference on Computer-Human Interaction: Entertaining User Interfaces, 2007 This paper presents data and analysis from a long term ethnographic study of the design and development of an electronic patient records system in a UK hospital Trust. The project is a public private partnership (PPP) between the Trust and a US based software house (OurComp) contracted to supply, configure and support their customizable-off-the-shelf ...
