Short-term effects of monetary policy on generational inequality

Cogent Economics & Finance
This article investigates the impact of monetary policy shocks on income, consumption and wealth inequality within three generations – the young, middle-aged and pensioners using a vector autoregressive (VAR) model. The empirical results show that in the

Estimation of Sobolev embedding constant on a domain dividable into bounded convex domains

Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2017
This paper is concerned with an explicit value of the embedding constant from W 1 , q ( Ω ) $W^{1,q}(\Omega)$ to L p ( Ω ) $L^{p}(\Omega)$ for a domain Ω ⊂ R N $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{N}$ ( N ∈ N $N\in\mathbb{N}$ ), where 1 ≤ q ≤ p ≤ ∞ $1\leq q\leq p ...

Housing as Asset‐Based Welfare in Australia: An Investigation Through a Consumption Lens

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Housing asset‐based welfare has long been a key component of Australia's social policy. This resonates with a parallel literature identifying a trade‐off between homeownership and the size of nations' welfare states, wherein owner‐occupiers in smaller welfare states tend to come to rely on housing wealth to meet many of their welfare needs ...

‘We Are Australia’: Unpacking Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People's Understandings and Experiences of Australian Identity

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are the oldest living custodians in the world. However, Australian identity has been purposefully established to exclude Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, contributing to systemic oppression and harmful consequences. Understanding the perspectives and experiences of Aboriginal and Torres

Two variables functionals and inequalities related to measurable operators

Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2017
In this paper, we introduce two variables norm functionals of τ-measurable operators and establish their joint log-convexity. Applications of this log-convexity will include interpolated Young, Heinz and Trace inequalities related to τ-measurable ...

On Young's Inequality and its Reverse for Bounding the Lorenz Curve and Gini Mean

, 2009
The performance of the Young integral inequality is investigated for bounding the Lorenz curve and the Gini index. The study relies on a comparison of reverse Young type integral inequalities. The resulting approximation and bounds for the Lorenz curve

Artificial Intelligence and Access to Justice at the ‘Shop Front’: The Potential and Limitations of Meeting Legal Need Through Technology

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Australia, governments fund Community Legal Centres (CLCs) as part of the legal assistance sector (LAS) to meet the ‘legal needs’ of people experiencing disadvantage who cannot afford private legal services. Persistent unmet demand for CLCs is well‐documented. As artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in private legal practice to

Strong F $\mathcal {F}$ -convexity and concavity and refinements of some classical inequalities

Journal of Inequalities and Applications
The concept of strong F ${\mathcal {F}}$ -convexity is a natural generalization of strong convexity. Although strongly concave functions are rarely mentioned and used, we show that in more effective and specific analysis this concept is very useful, and ...
