Taiwan has seen decreasing levels of inequality, but faces challenges relating to its novel-products innovational capacity.
Thus {y n } is a positive decreasing solution of inequality (2.4), a contradiction.
Case 2: Assume that Δz n < 0. Clearly Δy n < 0. Then as in case 2 of Theorem 2.4, we find that {y n } is a positive decreasing solution of inequality (2.20).
For the flux model (3), we immediately obtain (18) d G dt = - ∫ ∑ α, β L α β ∇ μ α ∇ μ β d 3 r Furthermore, using Eq. (7), we transform Eq. (18) to the form d G dt = 1 2 ∑ α, β ∫ L α β 2 d 3 r < 0 and conclude that G (t ) permanently decreases because of inequality (5).
If our concern lies with absolute differences, the yellow pill preserves, whereas the green decreases the level of inequality.
There was a 14.5% decrease in the Gini coefficient between the first year and the last year of study, implying decreasing overall inequality between these two points of time.
But, the fact of the matter is, there cannot be a sustained decrease of poverty if the root causes of inequality are not addressed.
The HSR lines also increased the average centrality of the city network and the inequality of nodal centrality according to the WCC indicator, but they decreased the inequality of nodal centrality with regard to the WDC and WBC indicators.
This review aims to find which interventions were effective in reducing maternal or child health inequalities, so we focused more on the direction of the interventions' effect on inequality (i.e. if the intervention decreased or increased inequality), but not the extent of inequality changed by the interventions.
However, this should not be construed as a call for higher levels of inequality, since the marginal effect of inequality is decreasing.
