This study investigates an under-researched complex communicative act called “cancellation of an obligation”, produced by Chinese, Danish and British business professionals in both L1 and ELF contexts. It is embedded in an implicitly meta-interactional context consisting of a speaker’s...

Self-propelled autonomous devices have great significance in energy, environment, and biomedical engineering, and thus vast achievements have been made in recent years. However, conventional propulsion often requires special chemicals or external energy, which restricts their practical...

This work deals with the weighted excesses of players in cooperative games which are obtained by summing up all the weighted excesses of all coalitions to which they belong. We first show that lexicographically minimizing the individual weighted excesses of players gives the same minimal...

In this paper, we introduce a new approach to measure the dissatisfaction for coalitions of players in cooperative transferable utility games. This is done by considering affine (and convex) combinations of the classical excess and the proportional excess. Based on this so-called alpha-excess,...
