ON THE AGGREGATION OF MONEY MEASURES OF WELL-BEING IN APPLIED WELFARE ECONOMICS [PDF]

open access: yes
This article investigates the properties, good and bad, of social evaluations based on four money measures of well-being or changes in well-being: compensating variations, money metrics, extended money metrics, and welfare ratios.

Trace Equivalence Decision: Negative Tests and Non-determinism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We consider security properties of cryptographic protocols that can be modeled using the notion of trace equivalence. The notion of equivalence is crucial when specifying privacy-type properties, like anonymity, vote-privacy, and unlinkability.

Detection of energetic equivalence depends on food web architecture and estimators of energy use

open access: yesNature Communications
Ecologists have long debated the universality of the energetic equivalence rule, which posits that population energy use should be invariant with average body size due to negative size–density scaling.

The Comparability of Measures in the Ageism Module of the Fourth Round of the European Social Survey, 2008-2009

open access: yesSurvey Research Methods, 2020
Age is an important dimension that is used by people to categorize others. Age-based discrimination is directed toward specific age groups (young and old).

Scale efficiency and homotheticity: equivalence of primal and dual measures

open access: yes, 2013
We address the issue of equivalence of primal and dual measures of scale efficiency in general production theory framework. We find that particular types of homotheticity of technologies, which we refer to here as scale homotheticity, provide necessary ...

Inequality Measures, Equivalence Scales and Adjustment for Household Size and Composition [PDF]

open access: yes
Total household income inequality can be very different from inequality measured at the income per-capita level but only in recent years has the pattern of this divergence been investigated. In this paper, results from Coulter et al.

Equivalence and bifurcations of finite order stochastic processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This article presents an equivalence notion of finite order stochastic processes. Local dependence measures are defined in terms of ratios of joint and marginal probability densities.

Facts about the Fourier-Stieltjes Transform of Vector Measures on Compact Groups

open access: yesInternational Journal of Analysis and Applications, 2013
This paper gives an interpretation of the Fourier-Stieltjes transform of vector measures by means of the tensor product of Hilbert spaces. It also extends the Kronecker product to some operators arising from the Fourier-Stieltjes transformation and ...

Personal Assessments of Minimum Income and Expenses: What Do They Tell Us about 'Minimum Living' Thresholds and Equivalence Scales? [PDF]

open access: yes
Subjective minimum income (MIQ) and minimum spending (MSQ) are the study focus. Basic Needs Module (1995) data from the U.S. Survey of Income and Program Participation are analyzed.

Three variations of observation equivalence preserving synthesis abstraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In a previous paper we introduced the notion of synthesis abstraction, which allows efficient compositional synthesis of maximally permissive supervisors for large-scale systems of composed finite-state automata.
