Incentive-compatible debt contracts: The one-period problem
- Review of Economic Studies
, 1985
"... In a simple model of borrowing and lending with asymmetric information we show that the optimal, incentive-compatible debt contract is the standard debt contract. The second-best level of investment never exceeds the first-best and is strictly less when there is a positive probability of costly bank ..."

ON NON-CONTRACTIBLE PERIODIC ORBITS FOR SURFACE HOMEOMORPHISMS
"... Abstract. In this work we study homeomorphisms of closed orientable sur-faces homotopic to the identity, focusing on the existence of non-contractible periodic orbits. We show that, if g is such a homeomorphism, and if g ̂ is its lift to the universal covering of S that commutes with the deck transf ..."

The Determinants of Credit Spread Changes.
- Journal of Finance
, 2001
"... ABSTRACT Using dealer's quotes and transactions prices on straight industrial bonds, we investigate the determinants of credit spread changes. Variables that should in theory determine credit spread changes have rather limited explanatory power. Further, the residuals from this regression are ..."

from Lehman Brothers via the Fixed Income (or Warga) Database. We use only quotes on non-callable, non-puttable debt of industrial firms; quotes are discarded whenever a bond has less than four years to maturity. Monthly observations are used for the period July 1988 through December 1997. Only
Non-contractible periodic orbits of Hamiltonian flows on twisted cotangent bundles
, 2008
"... For many classes of symplectic manifolds, the Hamiltonian flow of a function with sufficiently large variation must have a fast periodic orbit. This principle is the base of the notion of Hofer-Zehnder capacity and some other symplectic invariants and leads to numerous results concerning existence o ..."

NON-CONTRACTIBLE PERIODIC TRAJECTORIES OF SYMPLECTIC VECTOR FIELDS, FLOER COHOMOLOGY
"... Abstract. For a closed symplectic manifold (M,ω), a compatible almost complex structure J, a 1-periodic time dependent symplectic vector field Z and a homotopy class of closed curves γ we define a Floer complex based on 1-periodic trajectories of Z in the homotopy class γ. We suppose that the closed ..."

be non-trivial. Using the first fact we conclude results about non-contractible 1-periodic trajectories of 1-periodic symplectic vector fields. In this version we will only prove the statements for closed weakly monotone manifolds, but note that they remain true

Guaranteeing service availability in SLAs; a study of the risk associated with contract period and failure process
- IEEE Latin America Transactions
"... Abstract—Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are a common means to define the obligations of network/service providers and users in business relationships. The terms that define the guaranteed availability for a given period are an important element of these contracts. The appropriate values selection i ..."
