Meanings in context

Article-grounded definition

the stock of cultural complexity in circulation at time t.

Article-grounded definition

usable cultural complexity.

C_{t+1} = \rho_t C_t + I_t - L_t

This equation states an equality: the expressions on both sides have the same value under the article’s assumptions.

C_t

the stock of cultural complexity in circulation at time t.

C_t

the stock of cultural complexity in circulation at time t.

C_{t+1} = \rho_t C_t + I_t - L_t + M_t

This equation states an equality: the expressions on both sides have the same value under the article’s assumptions.

S_{t+1} = (1-\delta)\,S_t + H_t - C_t - T_t,

This equation states an equality: the expressions on both sides have the same value under the article’s assumptions.

C_t

This mathematical expression combines the displayed quantities; its precise role follows from the surrounding article text.

\mathcal C_t = (\pi_{\theta,t}, H_t, \mathcal T_t, P_t, E_t, V_t, U_t),

This equation states an equality: the expressions on both sides have the same value under the article’s assumptions.

C_{t+1}=\rho_t C_t + I_t - L_t,

This equation states an equality: the expressions on both sides have the same value under the article’s assumptions.

C_t

usable cultural complexity.
