  • The impact of institutions on innovation networks: empirical evidence from Poland

    Publikacja

    - Technological and Economic Development of Economy - Rok 2022

    Innovation networks may accelerate and improve the innovation process, while institutional pathologies may hamper it. This study employs the Kruskal-Wallis H test and regression analysis to determine if the relationship between institutions and innovation networks does exist among the investigated variables. The purpose of the study was to find out whether cooperation with special local institutions influences the innovative behaviour...

  • Wspólnota mieszkańców - passé?

    Publikacja

    Local community - a term associated with the notion of neighbourhood and the quality of living environment - do not seem attractive to architects in Poland nowadays. Following years of collectivism enforced by top-down political decisions, one can currently observe bottom-up movements - attempts of building local communities. This paper presents research of chosen case studies (both Polish and foreign) illustrating the above approach....

  • Falling accident risk in Poland.

    Publikacja

    For the last few years we observe optimistic tendencies in traffic risk development in Poland the number of fatalities decreases about 10% per year, bringing Poland closer to European Union standards. Nevertheless in 2001 we observed the unexpected, and bigger than forecasted, casualty reduction. The reason was the economic downturn suffered across the country, resulting in reduced demand for transportation. The danger lies in...

  • Imitating Quantum Probabilities: Beyond Bell’s Theorem and Tsirelson Bounds

    Local hidden-variable model of singlet-state correlations discussed in M. Czachor, Acta Phys. Polon. A 139, 70, is shown to be a particular case of an infinite hierarchy of local hidden-variable models based on an infinite hierarchy of calculi. Violation of Bell-type inequalities can be interpreted as a `confusion of languages' problem, a result of mixing different but neighboring levels of the hierarchy. Mixing of non-neighboring...

  • Arithmetic Loophole in Bell's Theorem: Overlooked Threat to Entangled-State Quantum Cryptography

    Publikacja

    Bell’s theorem is supposed to exclude all local hidden-variable models of quantum correlations.
