This is Niles Eldredge. He was the co developer with Stephen Jay Gould of the theory of punctuated equilibrium.

Speciation events are important in the theory of punctuated equilibrium, which accounts for the pattern in the fossil record of short bursts of evolution interspersed with relatively long periods of stasis, where species remain relatively unchanged.

In the 1970s Stephen Jay Gould and Niles Eldredge proposed the theory of punctuated equilibrium which holds that stasis is the most prominent feature of the fossil record, and that most evolutionary changes occur rapidly over relatively short periods of time.

The theory holds that financial markets do not tend towards equilibrium.

So economists talk about game theory that every two person game has a Nash equilibrium.

Otherwise, we can expect a long period of stagnation, punctuated by periodic financial crises.

His reign was punctuated by a series of internal conflicts which he managed to overcome.

For decades, open conflict and simmering hostility have been punctuated by periods of short lived bonhomie.

Thus, each strategy in a Nash equilibrium is a best response to all other strategies in that equilibrium.

We all have good reason to be grateful that US Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is an expert on the Great Depression and the authorities flawed policy responses then, rather than in the finer points of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium theory.

Number theory is the theory of the positive integers.

But Keynes s theory was incomplete his was a theory of employment, interest, and money. It was not a theory of prices.

The first development of set theory was a naive set theory.

That equilibrium lies at the heart of the potential of those mechanisms.

Number theory Farisi made a number of important contributions to number theory.

A theory of truth for a language can serve as a theory of meaning.

The equilibrium yuan dollar rate is a chimera not because China s trade could never be balanced, but because the exchange rate alone does not determine equilibrium.

It's a picturesque village on the edge of the Sahara desert, whose serenity is punctuated by five ritual daily calls to prayers.

These changes are likely to make today s attempts to find an equilibrium yuan dollar exchange rate seem just as chimerical in hindsight as previous calculations of the yen dollar equilibrium rate.

The God theory is not just a bad theory.

Pessimistic observers foresee a continual decline of freedom rather than a liberal equilibrium.

The new government s fragile equilibrium only reinforces this sober interpretation.

Observers debate whether it will eventually reach a new equilibrium.

Indeed, at least in the arena of financial economics, a vulgar version of equilibrium theory rose to dominance in the years before the financial crisis, portraying market completion as the cure to all problems, and mathematical sophistication decoupled from philosophical understanding as the key to effective risk management.

Overall, after almost 25 years of stunning prosperity, punctuated by only two mild recessions, most Americans feel pretty confident about their economic situation.

Instead, it tends to be punctuated by major developments battles, assassinations, breakthroughs that have consequences that are felt for years.

However, there is an equilibrium between dissolved calcium bicarbonate and dissolved calcium carbonate Ca2 2HCO3 Ca2 CO32 CO2 H2Owhere the equilibrium is driven by the carbonate bicarbonate, not the calcium.

In the context of explaining price, the marginal utility theory is not a normative theory of value.

Balance of nature (biological fallacy) A discredited concept of natural equilibrium in predator prey dynamics.

They have applications in many areas of mathematics, including Galois theory, invariant theory, group theory, combinatorics, as well as further applications outside mathematics, including general relativity.

The theory of plate tectonics explains all this, including the movement of the continents, better than Wegener's theory.

253 (1984) (critical of theory) Klein, supra at 111 et seq. and 122 et seq. (critical of theory)).

So, when the free energy change is large (more than about 30 kJ mol 1), then the equilibrium constant is large (log K 3) and the concentrations of the reactants at equilibrium are very small.

Some Empiricist theories of language acquisition include the statistical learning theory Charles F. Hockett of language acquisition, Relational Frame Theory, functionalist linguistics, social interactionist theory, and usage based language acquisition.
