Aggregation and the Structure of Value
ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles.

How Well Can Words Capture Facial Appearance? A Cross‐Linguistic Exploration
Abstract When describing faces, people often struggle with verbalizing facial features. Free descriptions seem to focus predominantly on aspects of faces that are inferred, for example, psychological traits, age, attractiveness, and so on, whereas facial features themselves are often described in a limited and imprecise fashion.

On Kotzig's Perfect Set Problem of Hamiltonian Cycle Decompositions of the Complete Graph
ABSTRACT A Hamiltonian cycle decomposition (HCD) of K n is a set of Hamiltonian cycles in which each 1‐path of K n appears exactly once. A Dudeney set of K n is a set of Hamiltonian cycles in which each 2‐path of K n appears exactly once. Kotzig's perfect set of HCDs of K n is a set of HCDs whose union forms a Dudeney set.
