  1. Dec 27, 2023 · Definition and Characteristics. The power law is a mathematical relationship that represents a nonlinear association between two variables. It is characterized by a specific form of equation, where one variable is proportional to the other raised to a certain exponent.

  2. Here I sketch the two main mechanisms that generate powers laws: 1) random growth models, which generate a power law and 2) transfer of that power law via matching and optimization (that is, the variable generated by random growth is used as an input begetting another power law in another output variable).

  4. Nov 10, 2016 · The project starts with the meaning of “power.” That term is used so promiscuously in constitutional and political discourse that it might seem hopeless to insist on a single definition. But, in fact, there is a simple and intuitive understanding of power that captures most of what concerns courts and theorists in the constitutional domain.

  5. Jan 1, 2010 · The dualism arising in political and legal philosophy between conceptions asserting the priority of power over law (or norm) 1 and conceptions that maintain the primacy of law (or norm) over power turns up again in the context of sociological theory. There are two distinct basic approaches to the relationship between law and power: an empirical ...

  6. Power laws. Consider a physical process that has inputs , , and a scalar output . Inputs and output are physical, positive quantities, such as volume, height, or temperature. In many cases, we can (at least empirically) describe such physical processes by power laws, which are non-linear models of the form. where , and the coefficients , are ...

  7. No. 3] THE ESSENTIAL MEANING OF EXECUTIVE POWER 705 thorities that flow from the clause.6 Nor will the article fully explicate what is meant by presidential control of law execution. Finally, this arti-cle will not attempt to precisely document the genesis of “executive power.” It is enough that the phrase had a well-known meaning before,

  8. The rate of decrease follows a power law. The power law emerges, because the ratio between activity at one scale and activity at the next smaller scale is constant. The power-law relationship is shown in the top panel of Figure 14. For reasons that will be explained below, activity is quantified by squared amplitude.
