We show that Booth et al.'s Horn contraction based on infra-remainder sets corresponds exactly to kernel contraction for belief sets. This result is obtained via a detour thro...
Abstract: In any r-uniform hypergraph H for 2 t r we define an runiform t-tight Berge-cycle of length , denoted by C(r,t) , as a sequence of distinct vertices v1, v2, . . . , v ,...
Convergence results are presented for rank-type difference equations, whose evolution rule is defined at each step as the kth largest of p univariate difference equations. If t...
A contract algorithm is an algorithm which is given, as part of the input, a specified amount of allowable computation time. The algorithm must then compute a solution within the ...
We study an economic setting in which a principal motivates a team of strategic agents to exert costly effort toward the success of a joint project. The action taken by each agent...
