    Cyclical Mackey Glass Model for Oil Bull Seasonal

    No full text
    In this article, we propose an innovative way for modelling oil bull seasonals taking into account seasonal speculations in oil markets. Since oil prices behave very seasonally during two periods of the year (summer and winter), we propose a modification of Mackey Glass equation by taking into account the rhythm of seasonal frequencies. Using monthly data for WTI oil prices, Seasonal Cyclical Mackey Glass estimates indicate that seasonal interactions between heterogeneous speculators with different expectations may be responsible for pronounced swings in prices in both periods. Moreover, the seasonal frequency  / 3(referring to a period of 6 months) appears to be persistent over time.Oil bull seasonal, Seasonal speculations, Heterogeneous agents model, Seasonal Cyclical Mackey Glass models.

In this paper, we first prove that B(S) is the nom dual of the space rca(S) of all regular and bounded Borel measure on S. Then we show that the closed unit ball of B(S) is compact in the Mackey topology τ (B(S), rca(S)). We also provide a short presentation of an economic application for an intertemporal allocation of resources.S est un ensemble équipé avec la topologie discrète et B(S) est l'espace normé des fonctions bornées sur S mini de la norme sup. Dans ce papier, nous démontrons tout d'abord B(S) est le dual pour la topologie de la norme de l'espace rca(S) des mesures de Borel régulières et bornées sur S. Ensuite, nous montrons que la boule unité fermée de B(S) est compacte pour la topologie de Mackey τ (B(S), rca(S)). Nous proposons aussi une courte présentation d'une application économique concernant l'allocation inter-temporelle de ressources

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Fused Mackey functors

    No full text
    Let GG be a finite group. In [HTW], Hambleton, Taylor and Williams have considered the question of comparing Mackey functors for GG and biset functors defined on subgroups of GG and bifree bisets as morphisms. This paper proposes a different approach to this problem, from the point of view of various categories of GG-sets. In particular, the category of fused GG-sets is introduced, as well its category of spans. The fused Mackey functors for GG over a commutative ring RR are defined as RR-linear functors from this (RR-linearized) category of spans to RR-modules. They form an abelian subcategory of the category of Mackey functors for GG over RR, equivalent (for R=ZR=Z) to the category to the category of conjugation Mackey functors of [HTW]. The category of fused Mackey functors is also equivalent to the category of modules over the fused Mackey algebra, which is a quotient of the usual Mackey algebra of GG over RR. Reference: [HTW] I.

    On Morita and derived equivalences for cohomological Mackey algebras

    No full text
    By results of the second author, a source algebra equivalence between two p-blocks of finite groups induces an equivalence between the categories of cohomological Mackey functors associated with these blocks, and a splendid derived equivalence between two blocks induces a derived equivalence between the corresponding categories ofcohomological Mackey functors. The main result of this paper proves a partial converse: an equivalence (resp. Rickard equivalence) between the categories of cohomological Mackey functors of two blocks of finite groups induces a permeable Morita (resp. derived) equivalence between the two block algebras
