While virtually all elements of the original agenda of the ‘Washington Consensus’ have become global policy norms over the course of the past twenty years, the case of free capital mobility stands out as an outlier. In his ...

To every n-dimensional lens space L, we associate a congruence lattice L in ℤm, with n=2m - 1 and we prove a formula relating the multiplicities of Hodge-Laplace eigenvalues on L with the number of lattice elements of a ...

We characterize the sets of norm one vectors x1, ..., xk in a Hilbert space H such that there exists a k-linear symmetric form attaining its norm at (x1, ..., xk). We prove that in the bilinear case, any two vectors satisfy ...

Responses to norm violators are poorly understood. On one hand, norm violators are perceived as powerful, which may help them to get ahead. On the other hand, norm violators evoke moral outrage, which may frustrate their ...
