No full textCompetitive Nonlinear Taxation and Constitutional Choice
No full textIn an economy where agents are characterized by different productivities (vertical types) and different abilities to move (horizontal types), we compare a unified nonlinear optimal taxation schedule with the equilibrium taxation schedule that would be chosen by two competing tax authorities if the same economy were divided into two States. The overall level of progressivity and redistribution is unambiguously lower under competitive taxation than under unified taxation; the “rich” are always in favor of competing authorities and local governments, whereas the “poor” are always in favor of unified taxation. The constitutional choice between fiscal regimes depends on the preferences of the middle class, which in turn depend on the initial conditions in terms of the distribution of abilities (incomes), the relative power of the various classes, and mobility costs. In particular, as mobility increases, it becomes increasingly likely that a reform in the direction of unification of fiscal policies in a federation will receive majority support, while a decreased average wealth can have the opposite effect
Martial arts fiction : translational migrations east and west
No full textThis thesis was motivated by Robert Chard's puzzlement over the translational
phenomenon of martial arts fiction in the West. It proposes to address how the
translational migration of martial arts fiction took place, first to other Asian countries in the
1920's, but to the West only after a lapse of a few decades beginning in the early 1990's.
Adopting a descriptive approach as described by Gideon Toury, the thesis is intended to
add further to the limited inventory of case studies in urgent demand to test the polysystem
theory propounded by Even-Zohar.
The thesis is made up of two parts. Part I is a macro-level study of martial arts fiction,
intended to contribute to testing the limits of the polysystem theory. After examining
Chinese fiction as a low form in the Chinese literary polysystem and its weak function as
translated literature in the Western literary polysystem, the study explores the translational
phenomenon of martial arts fiction in the West as well as the concurrent phenomenon as to
why so little of martial arts fiction has been translated into Western languages, compared to
the copious amount into other Asian languages, to the extent of stimulating a new literary
genre or (re)writing martial arts fiction in indigenous languages in Indonesia, Vietnam and
Korea, sinicized countries or countries boasting large overseas Chinese communities.
Issues and problems related to these translational activities and cultural phenomena are
presented as tools to test the limits of the polysystem theory.
Part II is a micro-level study focussing on the specifics of rendering Fox Volant of the
Snowy Mountain by Jin Yong into English. I will argue, in the main, that many difficulties,
inherent in both the translating and reading processes, can be constructed within the
theoretical framework of Andre Lefevere's concept of "constraint", particularly that of the
universe of discourse. Lefevere's connotation of the universe of discourse will be expanded
to embrace different cultural presuppositions and literary assumptions underlying two
divergent world cultures, hence different reader expectations in the reading process.
It is hoped that the findings and results of this descriptive case history of martial arts fiction
as a literary genre in translational migrations will contribute to the accumulation of
knowledge

High Index Contrast Subwavelength-scale Optofluidic Waveguide in MOFs
No full textMicrostructured optical fibers (MOFs) have been widely utilized for optofluidicwaveguides, in which the micro-holes along the MOFs act as microfluidic channels for various applications such as supercontiuum sources and aqueous solution sensors. The air hole diameter of MOFs is generally several microns to tens of microns, which is much smaller compared with traditional fluid-core fiber waveguide. However, for specific applications such as ultra-trace analysis and low-threshold fluidic lasers, this channel dimension is still relatively large. The slot waveguide could confine light in a subwavelength-scale channel, however, the short propagation length and high loss of the waveguide may limit its applications
Continuous price and flow dynamics of tradable mobility credits with price regulation
No full textYe and Yang (2013) discussed the price and flow dynamics of tradable mobility credits in a general network. The violation of feasibility condition and instability of the credit price may arise when the time horizon is not long enough. To solve these problems, this paper introduces the price regulation method and models the dynamics of price and flow under the price regulation. Under some mild and reasonable conditions, the equilibrium state under price regulation is the same as the original one in Ye and Yang (2013). A numerical example is also used to elucidate our result.</p
