...There are 3 main economic costs associated with the imposition of a large scale and long term price support like the CAP.

It has become the underpinning of evolutionary theory, economics, business processes, international relations and is the subject of major motion pictures, like `A Beautiful Mind'.  In this course we will discover the laws underpinning every game and study specific examples of different types of games taken using examples from literature, the movies, board games, economics, molecular biology, international politics, business studies, dating, game shows, government funding opportunities and, of all things, fuel injection mechanisms in cars and the songs of the Dunes in the Sahel.

AbstractThe Goodwin growth model is a particular dynamical system exhibiting limit cycle behaviour.  I wish to add a measure of search and selection into the basic model by adapting one of the parameters of the model to be affected by an operator, such that the search process itself is a function of the relative slackness of the labour market summarised by the Phillips curve relationship modelled within the Goodwin model, and a new operator defined below, following Kauffman (1993) NK model of search and selection along fitness landscapes.

I'll put up the readings when I get back, hopefully having read them!Mechanisms of Inequality: Theory and EmpiricsA one-day workshop at the New School for Social Research, New York20 November, 2006, Wolff conference room, 65 5th Avenue, NY, 10003, The New School for Social ResearchThe IdeaThe study of inequality and its relationship to the debate over the potential effects of the increased integration of the global economy has never been more relevant....  The purpose of the workshop is primarily educational: each speaker would be lecturing at some length to the students on different approaches to the study of inequality, and students would be free to ask questions and clarify technical points to get the most out of each session.

Design, Setting, and Participants: Retrospective analysis of quality assurance data from 37 patients that presented to the emergency department (ED) of an academic, tertiary care hospital with ‘positive’ ED ultrasounds of the RUQ from June 1, 2005 to February 30, 2006....  Secondary outcomes were the hypothetical cost-savings achieved with singular use of ED ultrasound, without additional radiographic modalities, to identify and diagnose cholecystitis as extrapolated to the hospital, state, and national level.

Please answer the following questions:(a) (5 points) Write down the two fundamental equations of the Solow growth model, briefly explaining each symbol, and graph their relationship.  (b) (20 points) Use the Solow growth model to explain how one-off efficiency gains due to closer EU integration might be amplified by an increase in investment and savings.
