Talk:Lead-lag effect

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I agree. I've replaced it with an article describing the real use of lead-lag effect in science, as far as I can tell: just as a generic term describing correlations between two variables at separate times. I did a 40-year literature search on INSPEC to make sure that there's no common use of the term for the trivial differential equation that the article previously contained. (One has to read between the lines in Reddi's articles to figure out what concept he is garbling; it seems like those equations may have come from lead-lag compensators in control theory.) Steven G.
