Incentive compatibility and pricing under moral hazard [PDF]

, 2003
We study a simple insurance economy with moral hazard, in which random contracts overcome the non-convexities generated by the incentive-compatibility constraints.

Characterizations of Lifetime Distributions Using Two Relative Reliability Measures

Journal of Function Spaces, 2022
In this paper, a general characterization property considering two new dynamic relative reliability measures is obtained. The new dynamic relative reliability measures are expressed as the ratio of hazard rates and as the ratio of reversed hazard rates ...

The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.

Definition of seismic and tsunami hazard scenarios by exploiting EU-India Grid e-infrastructures [PDF]

, 2012
Seismic hazard assessment can be performed following a neo-deterministic approach (NDSHA), which allows to give a realistic description of the seismic ground motion due to an earthquake of given distance and magnitude.

Impact of Site-Response Characterization on Probabilistic Seismic Hazard in the Po Plain (Italy)

, 2023
We present a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) for the entire Po Plain sedimentary basin (Italy)—one of the widest Quaternary alluvial basins of Europe, to evaluate the impact of site‐response characterization on hazard estimates.

Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We

A Dual Characterization of Incentive Efficiency [PDF]

, 2001
We show that incentive e cient allocations in economies with adverse se- lection and moral hazard can be determined as optimal solutions to a linear programming problem and we use duality theory to obtain a complete charac- terization of the optima.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Publications in Uremic Toxins From 1991 to 2024

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Uremic toxins are a growing area of research in nephrology, with significant implications in the progression and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the management of end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). This bibliometric analysis aims to evaluate the global research trends, key contributors, and the impact of publications in ...

Preliminary hazard assessment and site characterization of Meşelik campus area, Eskişehir-Turkey [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013
Limited knowledge of ground conditions, such as geotechnical parameters, is one of the main causes of foundation failure. Unknown ground conditions can also cause additional burden costs.

Orderings and Ageing of Reliability Systems with Dependent Components Under Archimedian Copulas

Revstat Statistical Journal, 2023
In this paper, we have considered systems with dependent components having a joint distribution modeled by an Archimedean copula and with component lifetimes following accelerated failure time and modified proportional hazards distributions.
