Slavery, Education, and Inequality [PDF]

We investigate the impact of slavery on the current performances of the US economy. Over a cross section of counties, we find that the legacy of slavery does not affect current income per capita, but does affect current income inequality. In other words,

Newton's method for stochastic functional differential equations

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2012
In this article, we apply Newton's method to stochastic functional differential equations. The first part concerns a first-order convergence. We formulate a Gronwall-type inequality which plays an important role in the proof of the convergence theorem

Further finite-time stability analysis of neural networks with proportional delay

Franklin Open
Different from fixed delays between neurons, proportional delay is a time-varying unbounded delay. In this paper, the issue of finite-time stability of fractional-order neural networks with proportional delay is investigated.

Inequality and Growth Revisited [PDF]

In recent years, a vast literature on the links between inequality and growth has flourished. The emerging consensus is that equality enhances growth, but disagreement exists on the underlying mechanisms.

Global inequality and global inequality extraction ratio: The story of the last two centuries [PDF]

Using social tables, we make an estimate of global inequality (inequality among world citizens) in early 19th century. We then show that the level and composition of global inequality have changed over the last two centuries.

Urban Inequality [PDF]

What impact does inequality have on metropolitan areas? Crime rates are higher in places with more inequality, and people in unequal cities are more likely to say that they are unhappy.

Introduction Inequality - A Multifaceted Phenomenon

Inequality is ubiquitous in time and space. It is often measured simply as differences in incomes between various groups, but the phenomenon is more complex than so. Inequality is a many-faceted phenomenon that manifests itself in a number of ways.

Nonlinear singular integral inequalities for functions in two and independent variables

Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2000
In this paper nonlinear integral inequalities with weakly singular kernels for functions in two and independent variables are solved. The obtained results are related to the well known Gronwall–Bihari and Henry inequalities for functions in one ...

GLOBAL INCOME INEQUALITY: WHAT IT IS AND WHY IT MATTERS? [PDF]

The paper presents a non-technical summary of the current state of debate on the measurement and implications of global inequality (inequality between citizens of the world). It discusses the relationship between globalization and global inequality.
