This chapter provides an overview of the general rules for incorporation and operation of business organizations in Mexico. It focuses on the most common form of business corporation in Mexico, the sociedad anónima, or registered stock corporation. It also explores the main characteristics of the sociedad de responsabilidad limitada (S. de R.L.), or ‘limited liability company’, which a growing number of foreign investors use to conduct business in Mexico. Finally, it discusses the formation of partnerships, which may be used as alternatives to the sociedad anónima in carrying out commercial activities.Less

This chapter discusses the relevance of reinforcement learning (RL) to its hierarchical structure. It first reviews the fundamentals of RL, with a focus on temporal-difference learning in actor-critic models. Next, it discusses the scaling problem and the computational issues that stimulated the development of hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL). The potential neuroscientific correlates of HRL are also described. The chapter also presents the results of some initial empirical tests and ends with directions for further research.Less
