Trans-Planckian Physics and Inflationary Cosmology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Due to the quasi-exponential red-shifting which occurs during an inflationary period in the very early Universe, wavelengths which at the present time correspond to cosmological lengths are in general sub-Planckian during the early stages of inflation ...

Women's engagement in agriculture and income inequality in sub-Saharan Africa

open access: yesSocial Sciences and Humanities Open
Women play a significant role in economic development in Africa, notably in agriculture, where their engagement is substantial. This study analyses the effect of women's engagement in agriculture (WEA) on income inequality in sub-Saharan Africa, using ...

Progressivity and Inequality

open access: yesLSE Public Policy Review, 2022
The concept of justice in taxation has been associated with the concepts underlying income inequality and its measurement. I take a fresh look at this connection in the light of recent UK experience and of results in the field of inequality measurement.

Model Independent Primordial Power Spectrum from Maxima, Boomerang, and DASI Data

open access: yes, 2002
A model-independent determination of the primordial power spectrum of matter density fluctuations could uniquely probe physics of the very early universe, and provide powerful constraints on inflationary models.

How Does the European Union's Pluralistic Institutional System Influence Policy Change? The Case of the European Union Regulation on Deforestation‐Free Products

open access: yesSustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue S1, Page 1362-1378, January 2026.
ABSTRACT How did policy actors use the European Union's (EU's) political system to achieve policy changes in regulating the sustainability and legality of transnational forest and agricultural commodity supply chains? We qualitatively analysed the development of the new EU Regulation on Deforestation‐free products (EUDR) from actor‐centred and ...

Choice or competition: Does integration benefit everyone?

open access: yesTheoretical Economics, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 1-21, January 2026.
Matching markets are often fragmented, organized at a small local level. While integration of matching markets may lead to welfare gains by expanding choice, it may also harm some market participants by increasing competition for the same resources. We show that every “good” mechanism fails the monotonicity requirement that no individuals be hurt by ...

Conformally Invariant Brane-universe and the Cosmological Constant

open access: yes, 2004
A relativistic 3-brane can be given a conformally invariant, gauge-type, formulation provided the embedding space is six-dimensional. The implementation of conformal invariance requires the use of a modified measure, independent of the metric in the ...
