Subtle Discrimination

open access: yesThe Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We introduce the concept of subtle discrimination—biased acts that cannot be objectively ascertained as discriminatory. When candidates compete for promotions by investing in skills, firms' subtle biases induce discriminated candidates to overinvest when promotions are low‐stakes (to distinguish themselves from favored candidates) but ...

Anselm's Temporal‐Ontological Proof

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In his Reply to Gaunilo, Anselm presented two additional arguments for the existence of God beyond those that appear in the Proslogion. In “The Logical Structure of Anselm's Argument,” Robert M. Adams isolates each. One, he develops into a modal ontological argument along the lines of other 20th century ontological arguments (e.g., those of ...

Geodetic numbers of tensor product and lexicographic product of graphs

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics
A shortest [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text] path between two vertices u and v of a graph G is a [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text] geodesic of G.

L(2, 1)-coloring and irreducible no-hole coloring of lexicographic product of graphs

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2022
An L(2, 1)-coloring (or labeling) of a graph G is a mapping [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text] The span of an L(2, 1)-coloring is the maximum color assigned by it.

WE, ELF and ELT: Perspectives on English and applied linguistics

open access: yesWorld Englishes, EarlyView.
Abstract In a paper which originally set the scene for WE study, Braj Kachu argued that the ‘global diffusion of English’ called for a new paradigm of enquiry which recognized the independent status of varieties of English used by communities other than those of Inner Circle native speakers.

The affine automorphism group of A^3 is not a maximal subgroup of the tame automorphism group

open access: yes, 2014
We construct explicitly a family of proper subgroups of the tame automorphism group of affine three-space (in any characteristic) which are generated by the affine subgroup and a non-affine tame automorphism. One important corollary is the titular result

Sharp Upper Bounds for Generalized Edge-Connectivity of Product Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2016
The generalized k-connectivity κk(G) of a graph G was introduced by Hager in 1985. As a natural counterpart of this concept, Li et al. in 2011 introduced the concept of generalized k-edge-connectivity which is defined as λk(G) = min{λ(S) : S ⊆ V (G) and |

Operations on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Graph Structures

open access: yesFuzzy Information and Engineering, 2016
An intuitionistic fuzzy graph structure (IFGS) is a generalization of an intuitionistic fuzzy graph. The concept of intuitionistic fuzzy graph structure is introduced and investigated in this paper.

Functional Equations for Lexicographic Products

open access: yes, 2001
We generalize the main result of math.RA/9608214 concerning the convex embeddings of a chain Gamma in a lexicographic power Delta^Gamma. For a fixed nonempty chain Delta, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of nonempty solutions Gamma to each of the lexicographic functional equations (Delta^Gamma)^{<=0} simeq Gamma ...
