Consistent Nonparametric Tests for Lorenz Dominance [PDF]
This paper proposes a test for Lorenz dominance. Given independent samples of income or other welfare related variable, we propose a test of the null hypothesis that the Lorenz curve for one population is dominated by the Lorenz curve for a second ...

Soliton dynamics for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with magnetic field
, 2009 The semiclassical limit of a nonlinear focusing Schr\"odinger equation in presence of nonconstant electric and magnetic potentials V,A is studied by taking as initial datum the ground state solution of an associated autonomous elliptic equation.
