Interpolation with circular basis functions
In this paper we consider basis function methods for solving the problem of interpolating data over N distinct points on the unit circle. In the special case where the points are equally spaced we can appeal to the theory of circulant matrices which enables an investigation into the stability and accuracy of the method. This work is a further extension and application of the research of Cheney, Light and Xu ([ W. A. Light and E. W. Cheney, J. Math. Anal. Appl., 168: 110 - 130, 1992] and [ Y. Xu and E. W. Cheney, Computers Math. Applic., 24: 201 - 215, 1992]) from the early nineties
Thin plate spline interpolation on the unit interval
It is known that the unique thin plate spline interpolant to a function f is an element of C-3 (IR) sampled at the scaled integers hZ converges at an optimal rate of h(3). In this paper we present results from a recent numerical investigation of the case where the function is sampled at equally spaced points on the unit interval. In this setting the known theoretical error bounds predict a drop in the convergence rate from h 3 to h. However, numerical experiments show that the usual rate of convergence is h(3/2) and that the deterioration occurs near the end points of the interval. We will examine the effect of the boundary on the accuracy of the interpolant and also the effect of the smoothness of the target function. We will show that there exists functions which enjoy an even faster order of convergence of h(5/2)

Sustainable growth: The extraction-saving relationship
The paper presents two new results for the Dasgupta-Heal-Solow-Stiglitz model with an essential nonrenewable resource: (1) the pattern of resource extraction can be more important for sustainable growth than the pattern of saving when the Hotelling Rule modifier is not small enough; (2) the qualitative behavior of the long-run per capita consumption can be examined along any smooth enough path of extraction using the "sustainability functional" introduced in the paper.sustainable growth; modified Hotelling Rule; sustainability number; Hubbert curve consumption

“Lost Boys Found” is an ongoing, interdisciplinary project that is collecting, recording and archiving the oral histories of the Lost Boys/Girls of Sudan. The collection is a work-in-progress, seeking to record the oral history of as many Lost Boys/Girls as are willing, and will be used in a future book.Age: 27Region: LakeThis picture and bio was donated to the Lost Boys Found project from The Arizona Lost Boys Cente
Cahiers Saint-Simon
https://www.persee.fr/renderCollectionCover/simon.pngThe Société Saint-Simon was founded in 1972 in order to promote studies about the Duke of Saint-Simon (1675-1755), namely about the work, life, and thinking of the Mémoires’s author. Each year it issues a Cahier Saint-Simon. It contains the Acts of the annual Journée d’étude in Versailles, but also Notes and Documents, News of the Society and Book reviews.Fondée en 1972, la Société Saint-Simon a pour but de développer les études concernant l'oeuvre, la personne et la pensée du duc de Saint-Simon (1675-1755), l’auteur des Mémoires. Chaque année, paraît un numéro de Cahiers Saint-Simon contenant les actes de la journée annuelle de Versailles, ainsi que des Mélanges, des Notes et Documents et une Chronique bibliographique détaillée
