Strategic trade policy in a Cournot oligopoly with convex cost (2024)
Journal Article
Mukherjee, A., & Sinha, U. B. (2024). Strategic trade policy in a Cournot oligopoly with convex cost. Foreign Trade Review, https://doi.org/10.1177/00157325241266040

We provide a simple reason for export tax in a third-country model of strategic trade policy. We show that the optimal policy under Cournot competition could be export tax in the presence of convex production costs. This happens whether or not the im...

Older adults do not show enhanced benefits from multisensory information on speeded perceptual discrimination tasks (2024)
Journal Article
Atkin, C., Stacey, J. E., Allen, H. A., Henshaw, H., Roberts, K. L., & Badham, S. P. (2024). Older adults do not show enhanced benefits from multisensory information on speeded perceptual discrimination tasks. Neurobiology of Aging, 142, 65-72. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2024.08.003

Some research has shown that older adults benefit more from multisensory information than do young adults. However, more recent evidence has shown that the multisensory age benefit varies considerably across tasks. In the current study, older (65 – 8...

Geometry of Spin(10) symmetry breaking (2024)
Journal Article
Krasnov, K. (2024). Geometry of Spin(10) symmetry breaking. Journal of Mathematical Physics, 65(8), Article 082302. https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0210073

We provide a new characterisation of the Standard Model gauge group GSM as a subgroup of Spin(10). The new description of GSM relies on the geometry of pure spinors. We show that GSM ⊂ Spin(10) is the group that stabilises a pure spinor Ψ1 and projec... Read More about Geometry of Spin(10) symmetry breaking.

Bahr and Hutton recently developed an approach to compiler calculation that allows a wide range of compilers to be derived from specifications of their correctness. However, a limitation of the approach is that it results in compilers that produce tr... Read More about Beyond Trees: Calculating Graph-Based Compilers (Functional Pearl).

Damping wing absorption associated with a giant Ly α trough at z < 6: direct evidence for late-ending reionization (2024)
Journal Article
