Game-Theory Modeling for Social Welfare Maximization in Smart Grids
Energies, 2018 In this paper, we study the Stackelberg game-based evolutionary game with two players, generators and energy users (EUs), for monetary profit maximization in real-time price (RTP) demand response (DR) systems.

Insights into a long life without cancer: The case of the bowhead whale
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Long‐lived, large‐bodied organisms have evolved powerful anticancer mechanisms that preserve cellular and tissue integrity across extended lifespans. A recent study by Firsanov et al. shows that greater genome stability is a key factor underlying the remarkable longevity and cancer resistance of one such species, the bowhead whale.

Molecular cancer prevention: Intercepting disease
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Oncological practice must evolve, from treating established tumours to proactive cancer interception before clinical manifestation. This will require mechanistic insight into tumour initiation, validated biomarkers of early disease development and redesigned clinical trials, enabling cancer interception to become a core pillar of oncology with the ...

Arrow's theorem, Weglorz' models and the axiom of choice [PDF]
Applying Weglorz' models of set theory without the axiom of choice, we investigate Arrow-type social welfare functions for infinite societies with restricted coalition algebras.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Both cg12821679MAPRE3 methylation and MAPRE3 expression are significantly associated with overall survival (OS) of non‐small cell lung cancer. Meanwhile, MAPRE3 expression significantly modified the effect of smoking cessation on OS. Smoking cessation benefits OS merely for patients with high MAPRE3 expression.

A Dual Characterization of Incentive Efficiency [PDF]
, 2001 We show that incentive e cient allocations in economies with adverse se- lection and moral hazard can be determined as optimal solutions to a linear programming problem and we use duality theory to obtain a complete charac- terization of the optima.

Curriculum Theory and the Welfare State
Espacio, Tiempo y Educación, 2017 How do states make citizens? The question is as old as states themselves. Surprisingly, however, the approaches to answering it have emerged as a form of parallel play, uncoordinated (and poorly understood) across fields. This essay attempts to reconcile disparate realms of social research that address the question.
