Relativistic Coulomb Green's function in -dimensions
Using the operator method, the Green's functions of the Dirac and
Klein-Gordon equations in the Coulomb potential are derived for
the arbitrary space dimensionality . Nonrelativistic and quasiclassical
asymptotics of these Green's functions are considered in detail.Comment: 9 page

Copyright @ 2013 Elsevier B.V.Industrial marketing planning is a typical example of an unstructured decision making problem due to the large number of variables to consider and the uncertainty imposed on those variables. Although abundant studies identified barriers and facilitators of effective industrial marketing planning in practice, the literature still lacks practical tools and methods that marketing managers can use for the task. This paper applies fuzzy cognitive maps (FCM) to industrial marketing planning. In particular, agent based inference method is proposed to overcome dynamic relationships, time lags, and reusability issues of FCM evaluation. MACOM simulator also is developed to help marketing managers conduct what-if scenarios to see the impacts of possible changes on the variables defined in an FCM that represents industrial marketing planning problem. The simulator is applied to an industrial marketing planning problem for a global software service company in South Korea. This study has practical implication as it supports marketing managers for industrial marketing planning that has large number of variables and their cause–effect relationships. It also contributes to FCM theory by providing an agent based method for the inference of FCM. Finally, MACOM also provides academics in the industrial marketing management discipline with a tool for developing and pre-verifying a conceptual model based on qualitative knowledge of marketing practitioners.Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (Korea
On the three-person game baccara banque
Baccara banque is a three-person zero-sum game parameterized by
. A study of the game by Downton and Lockwood claimed that the
Nash equilibrium is of only academic interest. Their preferred alternative is
what we call the independent cooperative equilibrium. But this solution exists
only for certain . A third solution, which we call the correlated
cooperative equilibrium, always exists. Under a "with replacement" assumption
as well as a simplifying assumption concerning the information available to one
of the players, we derive each of the three solutions for all .Comment: 22 pages, 4 figures, and a 54-page appendix; new figure and minor
