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.

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

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])

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
