Scientific Methodology: A View from Early String Theory [PDF]
This paper addresses the question as to whether the methodology followed in building and assessing string theory can be considered scientific in the same sense, say, that the methodology followed in building and assessing the Standard Model of particle ...

D-brane Spectrum and K-theory Constraints of D=4, N=1 Orientifolds [PDF]
We study the spectrum of stable BPS and non-BPS D-branes in Z_2 x Z_2 orientifolds for all choices of discrete torsion between the orbifold and orientifold generators.

Building Theories of Economic Process
In the previous chapters we have provided proofs of principle for representing institutions as the carriers of process , using strategic market game models highly related in form to those of general equilibrium, but with extra constraints imposed by the institutions sufficient to carry process. Nevertheless, except in Chapter 6 we have avoided explicit
