Several researchers have decomposed sales promotion elasticities based on household scanner panel data.A key result is that the majority of the sales promotion elasticity, about 74 percent on average, is attributed to secondary demand effects (brand switching) and the remainder to primary demand...

ISOLA software has been used to determine moment tensor solutions by using the single-station three-component seismogram data. This will be useful and worthwhile for analysis of the earthquakes occurred in Himalayan region, where well azimuthal coverage data are not available. Two earthquakes...

In this paper, a new pair of second-order multiobjective symmetric dual programs over arbitrary cones is formulated and appropriate duality theorems are then established under K-η-bonvexity assumptions. We identify a function lying exclusively in the class of K-η-bonvex and not in class of...

In the Indian Himalaya, a 15 km stretch of the North Sikkim Highway that is exceptionally susceptible to landsliding is characterized by fine-grained, low permeability debris material. Lanta Khola is one of the major debris slides in this stretch and is active every year during the monsoons....

This paper reviews income distribution in developing countries in recent decades. On average, before-tax income distribution is less unequal in developing countries than it is in industrial countries. However, unlike industrial countries, developing countries in general have not been able to use...
