Bactrian in Issyk‐Kushan Script: Additional Readings and Decipherments1
Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.Abstract This article presents additional readings of several inscriptions written in the Issyk‐Kushan script, building on the improved system of sound values recently proposed by Sims‐Williams (2025b). We propose that some further lines of Dašt‐i Nāwur inscription DN III and parts of several other inscriptions can now be read as Bactrian, add new ...

Ecotoxicology and Environmental SafetyIn probabilistic health risk assessment (HRA) of multiple soil heavy metal(loid)s (HMs), Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) typically ignores inter-element correlations during concentration simulation, potentially compromising risk estimation accuracy. In this

Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.Abstract This paper investigates the role of semantic features of noun and adjective bases in determining the grammatical behaviour of Ancient Greek denominal and deadjectival verbs in *‐ye/o‐. The paper adopts a lexicalist framework (Rappaport Hovav & Levin 1998) and examines how the event schema, actionality, telicity and voice of derived verbs are ...

Wavelet Estimation for Density and Copula Functions
MathematicsThis article investigates the problem of univariate and bivariate density estimation using wavelet decomposition techniques. Special attention is given to the estimation of copula functions, which capture the dependence structure between random variables

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Sexual cannibalism (SC), where one mating partner consumes the other in the context of mating, is especially prevalent among spiders. However, the evolution of SC in spiders is still not fully understood. We review key hypotheses for SC and explore how female‐initiated SC has driven the evolution of various male counter‐adaptations to mitigate its ...

Copulas in finance and insurance [PDF]
, 2008 Copulas provide a potential useful modeling tool to represent the dependence structure among variables and to generate joint distributions by combining given marginal distributions. Simulations play a relevant role in finance and insurance.

Managing Procurement Auction Failure: Bid Requirements or Reserve Prices?
The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines bid requirements, where the government may cancel a procurement contract unless two or more bids are received. Using a first‐price auction model with endogenous entry, we compare the bid requirement and reserve price mechanisms in terms of auction failure and procurement costs.
