Middle‐Status Conformity: Theoretical Restatement and Empirical Demonstration in Two Markets

Damon J. Phillips, Ezra W. Zuckerman
2001 American Journal of Sociology  
This article aims to reestablish the long-standing conjecture that conformity is high at the middle and low at either end of a status order.  ...  It also validates the conjecture in two settings that both meet such conditions and allow for the elimination of confounding effects: the Silicon Valley legal services market and the market for investment  ...  , and Value Line.  ...

When–and how–can a cellular automaton be rewritten as a lattice gas?

Tommaso Toffoli, Silvio Capobianco, Patrizia Mentrasti
2008 Theoretical Computer Science  
The tradeoff between dissipation rate and structural complexity implied by the above results have compelling implications for the thermodynamics of computation at a microscopic scale.  ...  Following a conjecture by Toffoli and Margolus, it had been proved by Kari that any invertible CA, at least up to two dimensions, can be rewritten as an isomorphic LG.  ...  Acknowledgments We owe much to a generous referee for correcting a serious misunderstanding we had about one cited result and for many useful comments and suggestions. One of us (T.  ...

Evaluating models for lithospheric loss and intraplate volcanism beneath the Central Appalachian Mountains

2021 Journal of Geophysical Research - Solid Earth  
Contrary to the expectations for this setting, a region of the Central Appalachian Mountains centered near the boundary between the U.S. states of Virginia and West Virginia exhibits atypical properties  ...  Our preferred models invoke a combination of (perhaps episodic) lithospheric loss via Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities and subsequent small-scale mantle flow in combination with shear-driven upwelling that  ...  Section 6 focuses on a description of possible models and Section 7 presents a comparison between predictions and observations.  ...

Understanding protein kinase CK2 mis-regulation upon F508del CFTR expression

Andrea Venerando, Mario A. Pagano, Kendra Tosoni, Flavio Meggio, Diane Cassidy, Michelle Stobbart, Lorenzo A. Pinna, Anil Mehta
2011 Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's Archives of Pharmacology  
We conclude that a latent path may exist between mutation of this conserved sequence, CK2 hyperactivity and disease pathogenesis that might also explain the heterozygote advantage for the common F508del  ...  We review areas of overlap between nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDPK; nm23) and two proteins manifesting an equivalent diversity of action, each with many thousands of publications.  ...  This work would not have been possible without the generosity of cell line and reagent provision from Margarida Amaral, Carlos Farinha and Giulio Cabrini.  ...

Agility, Improvisation, or Enacted Emergence

Tony Cornford, William Venters, Yingqin Zheng
2007 International Conference on Information Systems  
There has long been a debate in system development centered on the dichotomy between control and innovation. In recent years this has been exemplified by the movement for agile methods.  ...  Our findings show that a combination of top-down coordination and bottom-up innovation is at work in this domain.  ...  Acknowledgements We would like to thank the GridPP collaboration for providing generous access and assistance to our research, and to thank Edgar Whitley and the four anonymous reviewers for reading earlier  ...

Selective Tuning for Contrast in Macaque Area V4

I. Sani, E. Santandrea, A. Golzar, M. C. Morrone, L. Chelazzi
2013 Journal of Neuroscience  
Visually responsive neurons typically exhibit a monotonic-saturating increase of firing with luminance contrast of the stimulus and are able to adapt to the current spatiotemporal context by shifting their  ...  Crucially, we found that contrast tuning emerges after a considerable delay from stimulus onset, likely reflecting the contribution of inhibitory mechanisms.  ...  Adapting to a texture of fixed contrast elements impairs the visibility of textures composed of element with straddling contrasts, indicating the presence of a contrastselective mechanism (Wolfson and  ...

Emergence is a profound subject that straddles many scientific disciplines, including the formation of galaxies and how consciousness arises from the collective activity of neurons.  ...  Here we summarise, elaborate on, and extend a recent formal theory of causal emergence based on information decomposition, which is quantifiable and amenable to empirical testing.  ...  P.M. and D.B. are funded by the Wellcome Trust (grant no. 210920/Z/18/Z).
