Corporate Board Gender Diversity and Stock Performance: The Competence Gap or Institutional Investor Bias?
(The North Carolina Law Review Association, 2011)Women now make up a sixth of corporate board members in the Fortune 500. Some scholars suggest that women board members boost financial performance, and thus stock price, by making boards more effective. Indeed, early ... -
Corporate Financial Policy and Taxation in a Growing Economy

Corporate Ownership Around the World
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1999)We present data on ownership structures of large corporations in 27 wealthy economies, making an effort to identify ultimate controlling shareholders of these firms. We find that, except in economies with very good shareholder ... -
Correct Audit Logging: Theory and Practice
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2016)Retrospective security has become increasingly important to the theory and practice of cyber security, with auditing a crucial component of it. However, in systems where auditing is used, programs are typically instrumented ... -
Corrected placement of Mus-Rattus fossil calibration forces precision in the molecular tree of rodents
(Nature Publishing Group, 2015)Time calibration derived from the fossil record is essential for molecular phylogenetic and evolutionary studies. Fossil mice and rats, discovered in the Siwalik Group of Pakistan, have served as one of the best-known ... -
Correcting for Biases Arising in Epidemiologic Research
(2017-09-13)In chapter 1, we explore the performance of naive least squares estimators for latency parameters in linear models in the presence of measurement error. We prove that in many scenarios under a general measurement error ... -
Correction Detection and Error Type Selection as an ESL Educational Aid
(Association for Computational Linguistics, 2012)We present a classifier that discriminates between types of corrections made by teachers of English in student essays. We define a set of linguistically motivated feature templates for a log-linear classification model, ... -

Correlated insulator and Chern insulators in pentalayer rhombohedral-stacked graphene
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2023-10-05)Rhombohedral stacked multilayer graphene hosts a pair of flat bands touching at zero energy, which should give rise to correlated electron phenomena that can be further tuned by an electric field. Furthermore, when electron ... -
Correlated long-range mixed-harmonic fluctuations measured in pp, p+Pb and low-multiplicity Pb+Pb collisions with the ATLAS detector
(Elsevier BV, 2019-02)Correlations of two flow harmonics vn and vm via three- and four-particle cumulants are measured in 13 TeV pp, 5.02 TeV p+Pb, and 2.76 TeV peripheral Pb+Pb collisions with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. The goal is to ... -
Correlated Oxides: Material Physics and Devices
(2015-05-15)In this work we study the metal-insulator transition in vanadium dioxide and samarium nickelate and the application of such transitions in electronic devices. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the Mott metal-insulator ... -
Correlated Phases of Bosons in Tilted Frustrated Lattices
(American Physical Society, 2011)We study the "tilting" of Mott insulators of bosons into metastable states. These are described by Hamiltonians acting on resonant subspaces, and have rich possibilities for correlated phases with non-trivial entanglement ... -
Correlated Random Matrices
(2021-05-17)In this thesis, we investigate the appearance of random matrix statistics for correlated random matrices. The Wigner-Dyson-Mehta Universality Conjecture regarding the statistics on eigenvalue differences is one of the ... -
Correlated scattering of protons impinging as hydrogen molecules
(American Physical Society (APS), 1974)The joint energy and angular-distribution function of protons transmitted through a thin foil when incident as 2-MeV H+2 has been measured. The experimental result is compared with simple calculations and satisfactory ... -
Correlated Voting
(2016)We study the social choice problem where a group of n voters report their preferences over alternatives and a voting rule is used to select an alternative. We show that when the preferences of voters are positively correlated ... -
A Correlated-Polaron Electronic Propagator: Open Electronic Dynamics beyond the Born-Oppenheimer Approximation
(American Institute of Physics, 2012)In this work, we develop an approach to treat correlated many-electron dynamics, dressed by the presence of a finite-temperature harmonic bath. Our theory combines a small polaron transformation with the second-order ... -
Correlating chemical sensitivity and basal gene expression reveals mechanism of action
(Springer Nature, 2015)Changes in cellular gene expression in response to small-molecule or genetic perturbations have yielded signatures that can connect unknown mechanisms of action (MoA) to ones previously established. We hypothesized that ... -
Correlation between Philosophy and Politics: Complex Systems Approach to the Question
(International Federation of Philosophical Societies, 2013)The very fact of philosophical values necessitates its concretization in social life. Values are transferred through reflection of philosophical ideas in political sphere. The process proceeds as follows: philosophy → ... -
Correlation between present-day model simulation of Arctic cloud radiative forcing and sea ice consistent with positive winter convective cloud feedback
(American Geophysical Union, 2012)A positive feedback on winter sea-ice loss, based on warming due to radiative forcing caused by the onset of convective clouds in response to sea-ice loss, has recently been proposed. This feedback has thus far been ...
