Why Private Investment In Pakistan Has Collapsed And How It Can Be Restored
No full textThe purpose of this paper is to analyse the decline in private investment and formulate a comprehensive strategy to overcome this problem, which is the main cause of deceleration in the growth momentum of Pakistan’s economy. Due to lack of investor confidence, private investment has reached its lowest point in the recent economic history of the private sector led growth phase (1978 to 2002) in Pakistan. This paper argues that economic as well as non-economic factors are responsible for this declining investment. Economic policies are formulated in such a manner that the short-term objectives of lowering the fiscal and trade deficits were to some extent achieved but overall economic performance and investment were ignored. In order to control external trade deficits, a policy of devaluation increased the cost of production through an increase in prices of imported raw material especially of plant and machinery. Higher real interest rates due to excessive public borrowing that were due to the failure in reducing fiscal deficits has resulted in financial crowding out and has corroded the savings that might be used to finance private investment. The unexplained part of private investment that is not determined by economic factors can be attributed to non-economic factors, which include internal and external shocks. These shocks start from the sanctions which were imposed after the nuclear blast. Events following that initial shock like the freezing of foreign currency accounts, the military coup, the harassment of the partially successful accountability drive of the military government, the 9/11 incident, the Afghan war and tensions on the Pak-India border have complemented the shock. A comprehensive programme is required to boost private investment and for the restoration of investor confidence. Therefore, an economic package is recommended in this paper that consists of incentives that relax the supply side constraints by reducing cost of production as well as demand-enhancing efforts. It is the best time to introduce a strategy to increase investment activities in the economy because of the high level of foreign exchange reserves, the rescheduling of foreign debt and the drastic reduction in interest rates which have reduced the debt servicing cost. Investor confidence can be restored by accelerating economic activities through following policies that can reduce the cost of imported raw material, bring down the real interest rates in the economy, increase expenditures on infrastructural development activities and that can also increase the availability of conditional subsidised credit for the export oriented small scale industries so that there is an improvement in the quality of the final product. This would make it more competitive in foreign markets.Private Investment; Development; Growth; sector wise Investment
Normal conformal metrics on R4 with Q-curvature having power-like growth
No full textAnswering a question by M. Struwe [26] related to the blow-up behavior in the Nirenberg problem, we show that the prescribed Q-curvature equation Δ2u=(1−|x|p)e4u in R4,Λ:=∫R4(1−|x|p)e4udx<∞ has normal solutions (namely solutions which can be written in integral form, and hence satisfy Δu(x)=O(|x|−2) as |x|→∞) if and only if p∈(0,4) and [Formula presented] We also prove existence and non-existence results for the positive curvature case, namely for Δ2u=(1+|x|p)e4u in R4, and discuss some open questions
Concentration phenomena for the fractional Q-curvature equation in dimension 3 and fractional Poisson formulas
No full textWe study the compactness properties of metrics of prescribed fractional -curvature of order in . We will use an approach inspired from conformal geometry, seeing a metric on a subset of as the restriction of a metric on with vanishing fourth-order -curvature. We will show that a sequence of such metrics with uniformly bounded fractional -curvature can blow up on a large set (roughly, the zero set of the trace of a nonpositive biharmonic function in ), in analogy with a -dimensional result of Adimurthi-Robert-Struwe, and construct examples of such behaviour. In doing so, we produce general Poisson-type representation formulas (also for higher dimension), which are of independent interest

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
