    Notes: Like real polymer chains and unlike self-avoiding lattice walks, neighbor-avoiding lattice walks exhibit a reduction or mediation of the effective excluded-volume interaction, and thus merit study as a model of real polymers. For small excluded volume, we extend the perturbation series of Domb and Joyce to neighbor-avoiding walks. For large excluded volume we compute exactly the excluded volume per lattice site for short chains and estimate it by Monte Carlo for longer chains. We discuss the significance of chain stiffness for lattice models and suggest how the correct two-parameter function might be determined numerically.

    Do Out-of-State Buyers Pay More for Real Estate? An Examination of Anchoring-Induced Bias and Search Costs (2004)
    Boston, USA and Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing, Inc.
    Real estate economics 32 (2004), S. 0

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: We explore the questions of whether and why out-of-state buyers pay more for real estate than their in-state counterparts. Theoretically, we develop a model capable of explaining a premium if out-of-state buyers have high search costs, upwardly biased beliefs about prices or an unusually short time horizon to purchase. Empirically, we find that out-of-state buyers pay a statistically significant and economically meaningful premium for apartment complexes in the Phoenix area. We also find some evidence consistent with the premium being driven by high search costs, biased beliefs (anchoring) and haste associated with out-of-state buyers.

    A Metropolitan Transaction-Based Commercial Price Index: A Time-Varying Parameter Approach (2001)
    Oxford, UK and Boston, USA : Blackwell Publishers Ltd
    Real estate economics 29 (2001), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1540-6229
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: This study examines the usefulness of time-varying parameter techniques for constructing reliable transaction-based commercial price indices for metropolitan areas. Time-varying parameter techniques allow the implicit prices of differing quality characteristics to vary intertemporally, overcoming the potential bias imposed by holding implicit prices fixed and simply interpreting time dummy variables as in a conventional hedonic approach. This paper empirically investigates three time-varying parameter methods (Chained, Laspeyres, and Paasche) and considers the potential for sample selection bias. Precision measures are constructed to examine the reliability of the respective indices.

    Some Loans Are More Equal than Others: Third–Party Originations and Defaults in the Subprime Mortgage Industry (2002)
    Boston, USA and Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishers Inc.
    Real estate economics 30 (2002), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1540-6229
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: We show how agency problems between lenders (principals) and third–party originators (TPO; agents) imply that TPO–originated loans are more likely to default than similar retail–originated loans. The nature of the agency problem is that TPOs are compensated for writing loans, but are not completely held accountable for the subsequent performance of those loans. Using a hazard model with jointly estimated competing risks and unobserved heterogeneity, we find empirical support for the TPO/default prediction using individual fixed–rate subprime loans with first liens secured by residential real estate originated between January 1, 1996, and December 31, 1998. We find that apparently equal loans (similar ability to pay, option incentives and term) can have unequal default probabilities. We also find that, initially, the agency–cost risk was not priced. At first, the market did not recognize the higher channel risk, since TPO and retail loans received similar interest rates even though the TPO loans were more likely to default. We also show that this inefficiency was short–lived. As the difference in default rates became apparent, interest rates on TPO loans rose about 50 basis points above otherwise similar retail loans.

    Do Tax-Deferred Exchanges Impact Purchase Price? Evidence from the Phoenix Apartment Market (2001)
    Boston, USA and Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishers Inc
    Real estate economics 29 (2001), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1540-6229
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Many authors have commented on the compliance risk associated with tax-deferred exchanges. However, no published studies explicitly address whether the risks associated with the exchange process impact the price at which exchanged assets trade. Using a unique data set that documents transactions for nondirect exchanges, this study examines the price impact of tax-deferred exchanges on apartment transactions in the Phoenix, Arizona, market. Consistent with the price pressure hypothesis originally developed by Scholes (1972) and Kraus and Stoll (1972) and the tax capitalization hypothesis proposed by Oates (1969), the data show that exchange participants pay an economically significant premium to acquire replacement assets. A conventional hedonic price index is generated to investigate the rational bounds of the exchange premium.

    Characterization of the Jagged Stress-strain Relationships of Puffed Extrudates using the Fast Fourier Transform and Fractal Analysis (1992)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Journal of food science 57 (1992), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1750-3841
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Agriculture, Forestry, Horticulture, Fishery, Domestic Science, Nutrition , Process Engineering, Biotechnology, Nutrition Technology
    Notes: The jaggedness of the stress-strain relationship of two kinds of puffed extrudates stored under different humidity conditions was assessed by the power spectrum of the Fast Fourier Transform and the Natural Fractal dimension of normalized compression curves. Both analyses, performed with a micro-computer, provided a consistent measure of jaggedness. The apparent Fractal dimension, obtained using the Blanket algorithm, was the most convenient measure of overall ruggedness since it was expressed by a single number. The power spectrum that resulted from the Fourier transform, however, could be used to identify the length scale of structural features where fracture takes place, and its shape could be more directly related to structural features and textural properties.

    Memories, Reflections, and Dreams (1995)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Water and environment journal 9 (1995), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1747-6593
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Energy, Environment Protection, Nuclear Power Engineering
    Notes: The author draws on his career by referring to (a) the type of knowledge which engineers acquire and lose over time, and (b) the importance of socio-economic and environmental aspects of civil engineering projects.In Memories, he recalls particular incidents in thirty countries and being confronted by unfamiliar cultures, and follows two vital threads which are woven into his experience, namely human nature and mother nature. Reflections, based upon adult education, reveal aspects of the psychological understanding of human nature and the importance of biological diversity. The author finds some areas of apparently unresolved conflict between civil engineering and the environment.Finally, in Dreams, the author quotes a United Nations set of priorities which provide a satisfying guide to the broad view of world developments and which can help to show the importance of biological and cultural diversity.
