Poszukiwanie dobrych odpowiedzi na źle postawione pytania, rzecz o przedsiębiorczości kobiet
PublicationWomen entrepreneurship has been the subject of research for many years and its results are often compared against the men entrepreneurship results. The conducted research has often been aimed at identification/recognition of the differences between the entrepreneurs of opposite gender. The lack of satisfactory proof for the existence of the differences has been attributed by some determined researchers to inappropriate research...

Different aspects of women’s participation in self-employment with particular reference to the costs
PublicationOver the last twenty years a growing number of researchers have been interested in female entrepreneurship. It is wort noting that being a self-employed person, for certain women, is the only chance to participate actively in social and economic life. Women choose self-employment because of flexibility of schedule and family-related reasons. This study aims to increase knowledge about self-employment as one of multiple labor market...

Entrepreneurship Vulnerability to Business Cycle. A New Methodology for Identification Pro-cyclical and Counter-cyclical Patterns of Entrepreneurial Activity
PublicationIn literature, there is ongoing discussion whether entrepreneurial activity, approximated by, for instance, changes in self-employment, tends to behave pro-cyclically, counter-cyclically or rather is a-cyclical. Thus far, both theoretical and empirical evidence, where various multiple methodological approaches are used, does not provide clear answer to the latter; while widely offered explanations are scattered and lack robustness....

Inseparability criteria based on matrices of moments
PublicationInseparability criteria for continuous and discrete bipartite quantum states based on moments of annihilationand creation operators are studied by developing the idea of Shchukin-Vogel criterion Phys. Rev. Lett. 95,230502 2005. If a state is separable, then the corresponding matrix of moments is separable too. Thus, wederive generalized criteria based on the separability properties of the matrix of moments. In particular, acriterion...

Potential energy curves, transition and permanent dipole moments of KRb
PublicationWe present extensive calculations of 48 adiabatic potential energy curves of the KRb molecule. Efforts have been focused on preparing the appropriate basis sets. Compared to previous approaches, the set of new potential energy curves is extended to higher excitations, including the single-excited K(4s2S)+Rb(5d2D) and double-excited K(4p2P)+Rb(5p2P) atomic limits. Larger distances between nuclei are also taken into account. New...

Quasirelativistic potential energy curves and transition dipole moments of NaRb
PublicationWe report on extensive calculations of quasi-relativistic potential energy curves and, for the first time, transition dipole moments including spin-orbit and scalar-relativistic effects of the NaRb molecule. The calculated curves of the 0+, 0-, 1, 2 and 3 molecular states correlate for large internuclear separation with the fourteen lowest atomic energies up to the Na(3s ^2S_{1/2}) + Rb(7s ^2S_{1/2}) atomic limit. Several new features...
