More on preference and freedom [PDF]
, 1998 The paper seeks to formalize the notion of effective freedom or freedom to realize meaningful choices. The definition of meaningful choice used in this paper is based on the preference orderings of a reasonable person in a society.

Human otopathology in scleroderma
Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1657-1665, December 2023., 2023 Scleroderma is a complex chronic progressive immune‐mediated disease. To date, there is a lack of information about how middle and inner ear may be affected by this disorder. Herein we described three otopathology cases of patients with scleroderma onset during life.

Determinants of rural creative microclustering: Evidence from web‐scraped data for England
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 102, Issue 5, Page 903-943, October 2023., 2023 Abstract This study aims to compare the drivers of clustering of rural and urban creative industries in England. We use pre‐pandemic web‐scraped data from 154,618 creative industry organizations in England, and use a novel technique to identify 71 distinct rural creative “microclusters” of geographically proximate creative firms.

Time‐consistent fair social choice
Theoretical Economics, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 941-964, July 2023., 2023 In this paper, we study intertemporal social welfare evaluations when agents have heterogeneous preferences that are interpersonally noncomparable. We first show that even if all agents share the same preferences, there is a conflict between the axioms of Pareto principle, time consistency, and equity requiring society to reduce inequality regardless ...

The limits of ex post implementation without transfers
Theoretical Economics, Volume 18, Issue 2, Page 463-479, May 2023., 2023 We study ex post implementation in collective decision problems where monetary transfers cannot be used. We find that deterministic ex post implementation is impossible if the underlying environment is neither almost an environment with private values nor almost one with common values.

P-wave Pentaquark and its Decay in the Quark Model with Instanton Induced Interaction
, 2005 P-wave pentaquarks with strangeness +1, I=0 and J^P=1/2^+ are studied in the non-relativistic quark model with instanton induced interaction (III). We present their mass splittings and orbital-spin-isospin-color structures.

Efficient and strategy‐proof mechanism under general constraints
Theoretical Economics, Volume 20, Issue 2, Page 481-509, May 2025.This study investigates efficient and strategy‐proof mechanisms for allocating indivisible goods under constraints. First, we examine a setting without endowments. In this setting, we introduce a class of constraints—ordered accessibility—for which the serial dictatorship (SD) mechanism is Pareto‐efficient (PE), individually rational (IR), and group ...

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2025.Abstract N‐Methylation of the peptide backbone confers pharmacologically beneficial characteristics to peptides that include greater membrane permeability and resistance to proteolytic degradation. The borosin family of ribosomally synthesized and post‐translationally modified peptides offer a post‐translational route to install amide backbone α‐N ...

Multi-Profile Intertemporal Social Choice [PDF]
, 2012 We provide a brief survey of some literature on intertemporal social choice theory in a multi-profile setting. As is well-known, Arrow’s impossibility result hinges on the assumption that the population is finite.

Experimental Study of Spatiotemporal Variations in Lab‐Scale Fire Whirls
Journal of Combustion, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.This study focused on the unsteady behavior of fire whirls. A laboratory‐scale fire whirl was generated, and temporal variations in flame height were measured from images taken by a high‐speed camera and subjected to frequency analysis. The flame height fluctuations of the fire whirl also showed intermittent behavior, such as the puffing of a pool ...
