THE LUXURY AXIOM, THE WEALTH PARADOX, AND CHILD LABOR [PDF]
Basu and Van (1998) present a fundamental framework of child labor with two important axioms: the luxury axiom and the substitution axiom. A number of empirical studies, however, reveal a ¡°wealth paradox¡±. The current paper has two aims.

Machine Learning for Thermodynamic States of Notional Nonideal Energetic Mixtures
Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.. ABSTRACT Currently, modeling the thermodynamic states in the reaction zone of a detonating energetic mixture entails iteratively solving a set of coupled differential equations that require detailed material property information or models whose empirical parameters must be physically measured.

Toward a theory of Bayesian experimentation in early‐stage ventures
Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Research Summary The entrepreneurship literature has established the benefits of experimentation but has paid comparatively little attention to its costs. We develop a Bayesian model to illustrate the entrepreneurial choice between direct and experimental entry.

Salient Rewards, Payoff Protocols and Biased Data
Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Paying salient rewards to subjects is expensive. Is it worth it? We describe previous data from otherwise identical treatments with hypothetical or salient payoffs that indicate opposite conclusions about the central research question in a paper. If we are going to pay salient rewards, how should we? The answer depends on the theoretical model

Subconvexity for additive equations: Pairs of undenary cubic forms [PDF]
, 2014 We investigate pairs of diagonal cubic equations with integral coefficients. For a class of such Diophantine systems with 11 or more variables, we are able to establish that the number of integral solutions in a large box is at least as large as the ...

Humidity Ramp Protocols Systematically Underestimate Human Heat Tolerance Limits
Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.Short dwell times in humidity‐ramp protocols (Δt/τ≪1 ${\Delta }t/\tau \mathit{\ll }1$) prevent human core temperature from reaching equilibrium, causing premature inflection points and systematic underestimation of critical environmental limits by ∼3°C–4°C.
