Abstract

Recently, Pennings and Smidts (2003) showed a relationship between organizational behavior and the global shape of the utility function. Their results suggest that the shape of the utility function may be related to β€˜higher‐order’ decisions. This research examines the relationship between financial strategic decisions and the global shape of the utility function of real decision makers. We assess the shape of utility functions of portfolio managers and show that the global shape is related to their strategic asset allocation. The findings demonstrate the informational content of the shape of utility functions in the context of financial strategic behavior. Copyright Β© 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Shape-memory polyurethanes (PUs) were synthesized by 4,4 -diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), 1,4-butanediol (BD), and poly(tetramethyl oxide)glycol (PTMO). The morphology of PUs was studied using DSC, DMA, and TEM. The results indicated that the PUs would show different morphology by changing the m

## Abstract A nonorbital representation of the many‐electron atomic systems is proposed. It is obtained by considering a certain equivalence class of mappings Ζ’: Ο΅ β†’ Ξ  from the set Ο΅ of __N__ electrons into the set Ξ  of __Z__ protons. Total binding energy of the systems (__Z__ = 3,4,…, 18; __Z__ βˆ’
