Monotonicity and Continuity of the Critical Capital Stock in the Dechert-Nishimura Model
No full textWe show that the critical capital stock of the Dechert-Nishimura (1983) model is a decreasing and continuous function of the discount factor. We also show that the critical capital stock merges with a nonzero steady state as the discount factor decreases to a certain boundary value, and that the critical capital stock converges to the minimum sustainable capital stock as the discount factor increases to another boundary value.Dechert-Nishimura model, Nonconvexity, Optimal growth, critical capital stock

Interpretationes Iuris Antiqui ::Dankesgabe für Shigeo Nishimura /
No full textDie Exegese ist die Königin der Wissenschaftsmethoden. Sie vereint in sich Erkenntnis, Erklärung und Anwendung in einer immer tiefer greifenden Konzentrierung, die am Ende zum Verständnis führt. Traditionell wird sie verbunden mit dem Lesen von juristischen und theologischen Texten und hat hierin eine lange Tradition.0Ein Großmeister der juristischen Exegese ist Shigeo Nishimura. Er hat unzählige römischrechtliche Texte scharfsinnig bearbeitet und seine Ergebnisse anderen Wissenschaftlern, in Japan und Europa, zugänglich gemacht. Zum Dank bieten ihm nun eine Reihe europäischer Wissenschaftler eine Sammlung von Exegesen dar, die schwierige Texte aus dem klassischen0römischen Recht behandeln. Auf diese Weise entstehen neue Einblicke in bekannte und weniger bekannte Stellen. Die Dankesgabe enthält Beiträge von F. Brandsma, A. Bürge, C.A. Cannata, T.J. Chiusi, Th. Finkenauer, É. Jakab, W. Kaiser, R. Knütel, S. Lohsse, U. Manthe, C. Masi Doria, M. Pennitz, P. Pichonnaz, J. Platschek, J.M. Rainer, G. Ries, M. Schermaier, G. Schiemann, B. Sirks, H.-D. Spengler, G. Thür, A. Wacke und L.

Letter from Sojiro Nishimura to Mr. S. Okine, November 26, 1946 [in Japanese]
No full textA letter from Sojiro Nishimura to his uncle, Seiichi Okine. He writes about his visit in the Okines' place in California and appreciation for their courtesy and generosity. He also notes that he has found the monetary gift of 15 dollars included in a gift from the Okines but would like to take only 5 dollars and return the rest to Seiichi.The Okine Collection contains materials collected by Seiichi and Tomeyo Okine who were Issei flower growers in Whittier, California. It includes correspondence, photographs, financial documents, and a photo album. A large portion of the collection consists of family correspondence with Seiichi and Tomeyo Okine, including letters from their Nisei children, Masao and Makoto Okine, both soldiers overseas during World War II, to their Issei parents incarcerated in the Rohwer incarceration camp in McGehee, Arkansas. The correspondence also includes letters from their relatives and friends who are former incarcerees in the camps during the war and have “resettled” in Chicago, Illinois as well as letters from the Okines’ family members in Hiroshima, Japan during the Allied occupation of Japan. In addition, the collection includes a family photo album compiled by Dorothy Ai Aoki, a Nisei daughter to the Okines

Supplementary Material for: Report on a Case with Moreno-Nishimura-Schmidt Overgrowth Syndrome: A Clinically Delineated Disease Yet of an Unknown Origin!
No full textIntroduction: Overgrowth syndromes are a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders characterized by excessive growth, often accompanied by additional clinical features, such as facial dysmorphism, hormonal imbalances, cognitive impairment, and increased risk for neoplasia. Moreno-Nishimura-Schmidt (M-N-S) overgrowth syndrome is a very rare overgrowth syndrome characterized by severe pre- and postnatal overgrowth, dysmorphic facial features, kyphoscoliosis, large hands and feet, inguinal hernia, and distinctive skeletal features. The clinical and radiological features of the disorder have been well delineated, yet its molecular pathogenesis remains unclear. Case Presentation: We report on a Lebanese boy with M-N-S syndrome, whose clinical manifestations were compared with those of previously reported 5 affected individuals. Whole-exome sequencing combined with comparative genome hybridization analysis failed to delineate the molecular basis of the phenotype. However, epigenetic studies revealed a different methylation status of several CpG sites between him and healthy controls, with methyltransferase activity showing the most significant enrichment. Conclusion: An additional case of M-N-S syndrome recapitulated the clinical and radiological manifestations described in the previous reports. The data in the epigenetic studies implicated that abnormal methylations might play an essential role in development of the disease phenotype. However, additional studies in a clinically homogeneous cohort of patients are crucial to confirm this hypothesis
On the extremely low polarization in Comet C/2023 P1 (Nishimura)
No full textOn September 6 and 7 of 2023, we measured the degree of linear polarization of Comet C/2023 P1 (Nishimura) with the R filter. Our observations reveal an extremely low amplitude of positive polarization. Our modelling suggests Mg-rich silicate dust particles are the dominant species in the coma; whereas, an alternative explanation is that such low positive polarization in comets is attributed to the depolarizing effect of their gaseous emission. These two alternative explanations predict dramatically different polarimetric responses at small phase angle that can be discriminated in future polarimetric observations of Comet C/2023 P1 (Nishimura). © 2023 The Author(s).

Two recursive theorems on n-extendibility
No full textAbstractWe give two recursive theorems on n-extendible graphs. A graph G is said to be (k, n)-extendible if every connected induced subgraph of G of order 2k is n-extendible. It is said to be [k, n]-extendible if G - V(H) is n-extendible for every connected induced subgraph H of G of order 2k. In this note we prove that every (k, n)-extendible graph is (k + 1, n + 1)-extendible and that every [k, n]-extendible graph is [k - 1, n]-extendible. Both are natural generalizations of recent results by Nishimura ([1, 2])
