An application of the Choquet theorem to the study of randomly-superinvariant measures [PDF]
Opuscula Mathematica, 2012 Given a real valued random variable \(\Theta\) we consider Borel measures \(\mu\) on \(\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R})\), which satisfy the inequality \(\mu(B) \geq E\mu(B-\Theta)\) (\(B \in \mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R})\)) (or the integral inequality \(\mu(B) \geq ...

REGIONAL GROWTH IN PORTUGAL: ASSESSING THE CONTRIBUTION OF EARNINGS AND EDUCATION INEQUALITY [PDF]
Zbornik Radova: Geografski institut "Jovan Cvijić", 2015 Regional economic growth in Portugal has mainly been studied from the perspective of convergence with data ending by the early 2000’s. The country as a whole has stopped converging to the output levels of the richest European countries by this period and
