Kazhdan-Laumon Categories and Representations by Morton-Ferguson, Calder

“…After Bezrukavnikov and Polishchuk’s counterexample to Kazhdan and Laumon’s original conjecture, Polishchuk made an alternative conjecture: though the counterexample shows that the Grothendieck group K₀(A) is not spanned by objects of finite projective dimension, he noted that a graded version of K₀(A) can be thought of as a module over Laurent polynomials and conjectured that a certain localization of this module is generated by objects of finite projective dimension. …”

Essays on oil price fluctuations, financial markets and international trade by Le, Thai Ha

“…The long-run causality running from oil price to overall, oil and non-oil trade balances and their short-run dynamics are investigated by applying the Toda-Yamamoto’s 1995 (TY) causality approach and generalized impulse response functions (IRFs), respectively to the monthly data spanning from January 1999 to November 2011. Three Asian economies that represent three distinct characteristics in terms of oil are chosen and examined: Malaysia as an oil exporter, Singapore as an oil refinery and Japan as an oil importer. …”
