Finite Lattice Hamiltonian Computations in the P-Representation: the Schwinger Model
The Schwinger model is studied in a finite lattice by means of the
P-representation. The vacuum energy, mass gap and chiral condensate are
evaluated showing good agreement with the expected values in the continuum
limit.Comment: 6 pages, 5 eps figures, espcrc
Banded Contracts, Mediating Institutions, and Corporate Governance: A Naturalist Analysis of Contractual Theories of the Firm
Fort and Noone relate business ethics to notions of transcendence found in nature and anthropology. They address the notion of contracts within corporate legal theory because contracts are used as a model both by those who advocate minimalist, agency business duties and by others who propound a broad business ethic
Test of Information Theory on the Boltzmann Equation
We examine information theory using the steady-state Boltzmann equation. In a
nonequilibrium steady-state system under steady heat conduction, the
thermodynamic quantities from information theory are calculated and compared
with those from the steady-state Boltzmann equation. We have found that
information theory is inconsistent with the steady-state Boltzmann equation.Comment: 12 page
