Hopf-Galois and Bi-Galois Extensions

Hopf-Galois extensions were introduced by Chase and Sweedler [8] (in the commutative case) and Kreimer and Takeuchi [25] (in the case of finite dimensional Hopf algebras) by axioms directly generalizing those of a Galois extension of rings, replacing the action of a group on the algebra by the coaction of a Hopf algebra H; the special case of an ordinary Galois extension is recovered by specializing H to be the dual of a group algebra. Hopf-Galois extensions also generalize strongly graded algebras (here H is a group algebra) and certain inseparable field extensions (here the Hopf algebra is the restricted envelope of a restricted Lie algebra, or, in more general cases, generated by higher derivations). They comprise twisted group rings R ∗ G of a group G acting on a ring R (possibly also twisted by a cocycle), and similar constructions for actions of Lie algebras. If the Hopf algebra involved is the coordinate ring of an affine group scheme, faithfully flat Hopf-Galois extensions are precisely the coordinate rings of affine torsors or principal homogeneous spaces. By analogy, Hopf-Galois extensions with Hopf algebra H the coordinate ring of a quantum group can be considered as the noncommutative analog of a principal homogeneous space, with a quantum group as its structure group. Apart from this noncommutative-geometric interpretation, and apart from their role as a unifying
Estimating Preference Heterogeneity in Discrete Choice Models of Product Differentiation

Discrete choice models remain a key tool for analyzing markets of differentiated products. Recent developments of these models incorporate preference heterogeneity to reflect realistic substitution patterns. Yet the identification and estimation of preference heterogeneity remains computationally challenging. I derive a new method for identifying and estimating the parameters defining heterogeneity in discrete choice models of product differentiation. I develop a multistage estimation method in which the heterogeneity preference parameters are estimated in initial stages and the average preference parameters are estimated in a final stage. A key advantage of the method is that each stage is straightforward to estimate: the initial stages are estimated with a simple closed-form expression or with a linear regression, and the final stage is estimated with instrumental variables. I apply the method to estimate parameters of new vehicle demand and to simulate the effects of new vehicle fuel economy standards on total new vehicle sales. The estimation results show a weak substitution between new and used vehicles. Therefore, the simulation results suggest that a marginal tightening of the standards has a modest impact on total new vehicle sales.

Contaminants Exposure and Impacts on Drinking Water of Johi Subdivision of Sindh , Pakistan

This study was conducted in the area of Taluka Johi, district Dadu, Sindh, Pakistan and 46 drinking water samples were collected from hand pumps. In the present study, different physicochemical parameters, including pH, electric conductance (EC), total dissolved solids (TDS), turbidity and arsenic level, microbial parameter such as Escherichia coli colony forming units (CFU) and health quotient of dermal, chronic and carcinogenic risks were determined. The physicochemical characteristics results varied within the ranges, pH 7.4-8.4, EC 1160-7125 μS/cm, TDS 743-4560 mg/l, turbidity 1.6-34 nephelometric turbidity unit (NTU) and arsenic 0-250 ppb, and microbial characteristic revealed 0-100 CFU/100ml E. coli bacterial colonies. Health quotient (HQ) (chronic) irrespective to 15 kg and 70 kg bodyweight was found more than the normal limit and HQ (carcinogenic) was also observed more than the limit from the identified arsenic contaminated water samples which shows the seriousness of the contamination level and its health impacts on local residents of Johi, Sindh, Pakistan.
Toscana Virus Infection Imported from Elba into Switzerland

and rVIV 2 primers, the A-type DNA, respectively. The genus-specifi c DNA amplifi ed both types at random. Some colleagues have experienced similar diffi culties with the primers pmk 8 and pmkr 9 in samples from Vietnam (5); 2 of 5 samples gave false positive results for P. knowlesi. Unfortunately, their report did not mention which species was actually amplifi ed (5). Until recently, we had no satisfying explanation for the 3 assumed falsepositive results. Then, in 2009, Imwong et al. reported that these P. knowlesi primers stochastically cross-react with P. vivax genomic DNA. No polymorphisms alleviating the binding of pmk8 were found; however, a new PCR for P. knowlesi was introduced (10). Given the large distribution of the vector and the natural host of P. knowlesi in Southeast Asia, it is likely that P. knowlesi will be found in other parts of Indonesia. As microscopic and molecular diagnosis of this parasite seems diffi cult, the underestimation of its distribution and clinical relevance can be assumed.
Effects of the Addition of Flaxseed and Amaranth on the Physicochemical and Functional Properties of Instant-Extruded Cereals

The addition of flaxseed and amaranth on the physicochemical, functional and microstructural changes of instant-extruded cereals was evaluated. Six different mixtures were made with additions of amaranth (30%–50%) and flaxseed (10% and 15%) using maize grits and minor additives as supplementary ingredients and then extruded in a twin-screw extruder. The extrudates evaluated, had insoluble and soluble fiber contents increased with the proportion of amaranth and flaxseed. The mixture 4 (higher flaxseed content) presented highest soluble fiber percentage (1.9%). Extruded cereals had the lowest viscosity (<99.5 cp) and highest hardness values (5.2 N) whereas the dietary fiber content was highest. Fiber content increase, resulted in a higher water solubility index (WSI) (0.5) and decrease the water absorption index (WAI) (2.5). Amaranth and flaxseed incorporation increased crystallinity, resulting in a larger, and more compact laminar structure. Amaranth and flaxseed addition resulted in extruded cereals with acceptable physicochemical and functional properties.
1 REMITTANCES AND THE PREVALENCE OF WORKING POOR

This paper focuses on the relationships between remittances and the share of individuals working for less than 2$ US per day. It is based on an original panel dataset containing information related to remittances in about 80 developing countries and to the number of workers being paid less than 2 dollars per day as well. Even after factoring in the endogeneity of remittance inflows the results suggest that remittances lead to a decrease in the prevalence of working poor in receiving economies. This effect is stronger in a context of high macroeconomic volatility but is mitigated by the unpredictability of remittances: remittances are more effective to decreasing the share of working poor when they are easily predictable. Moreover, domestic finance and remittances appear as substitutes: remittances are less efficient in reducing the prevalence of working poor whenever finance is available.

Hyperuricemia Associated with Thiazide Diuretics in Hypertensive Adults

Introduction Thiazide diuretics are essential first-line anti-hypertensive drugs which not only maintain blood pressure but also reduce stroke and congestive heart failure associated with morbidity and mortality in hypertensive patients. However, thiazide diuretics are associated with elevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of thiazide diuretic use on their SUA levels among hypertensive individuals of Pakistan. Methods In this cross-sectional, prospective study, adult hypertensive patients were recruited. They were divided into two groups - thiazide diuretic group and non-thiazide group. Demographic characteristics, hypertension-related characteristics, and SUA levels were included. Data were then entered and analysed using SPSS for Windows version 22.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). Results In the thiazide group, 24.5% were hyperuricemic as compared to 15.3% in the non-thiazide group (p=0.03). The overall mean SUA levels in the thiazide group were significantly higher than those in the non-thiazide group (5.9 ± 2.1 vs. 5.3 ± 2.7 mg/dL; p=0.02). Males in the thiazide group also showed a similar pattern (5.9 ± 2.3 vs. 5.1 ± 2.1 mg/dL; p=0.02); however, the differences were insignificant in females. Patients using thiazide diuretics for one to three years were more non-hyperuricemic than hyperuricemic (p=0.000). Among hyperuricemic patients, 36.5% were taking thiazides for three to four years and 46% were taking them for more than four years (p<0.05). Conclusion Hyperuricemia is a more common occurrence in thiazide diuretic users as compared to non-users. The overall sample, and men using thiazide diuretics, reported a higher mean SUA as compared to non-users. As the years of thiazide usage advanced, the number of hyperuricemic participants also significantly increased.
Dental prosthetic status and needs of the residents of geriatric homes in Madhya Pradesh , India

Objective: To assess the dental prosthetic status and prosthetic needs among the residents of geriatric homes of Bhopal city. Materials and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was undertaken, and 117 subjects aged 50 years and above were examined (61.5% males and 38.5% females). Results: Majority of the subjects 86.3% and 88.0% had no prosthesis in upper arch and lower arch respectively and only 4.2% had complete dentures. Need for any prosthesis was among 66.6% and 76.0% subjects for upper and lower arches and nearly 35% subjects required one-unit prosthesis. Conclusion: Dental prosthetic status of people living in geriatric homes is very poor and there is high unmet need for prosthetic care.
Human Based Benchmark for Robot Navigation Assessment

This paper proposes the use of a human based benchmark for mobile robot navigation architectures. In order to do so, a simulator was developed to allow the realization of experiments in which both humans and automatic controllers should perform the very same task using the same mobile platform (with the same holonomic restrictions) and using the same sensorial information, considering that there is no previous knowledge about the environment. Four hypotheses were proposed and some experiments were performed to evaluate them. The obtained results are presented and discussed.
Effect of Seed Coating with Boron and Zinc of Zea mays for Various Yield Traits

A study of seed coating of micronutrients on Maize (Zea mays L.) was arranged to check the effect of Boron and Zinc Sulphate on germination, growth and yield. Experiment was carried out at Agricultural Research Area and Environment of, Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan, Pakistan. The lab experiment was laid out using randomized complete design with 4 replications and randomized complete block desing with 3 replications in the field experiment. It was concluded from prescribed study that application of Boron increased toxicity and inhibit the germination of maize crop. Application of 3.6 g ZnSO kg seed with suggested amount 4 1 of Nitrogen, Phosphorous and Potassium can improve corn produce in the field condition greater than the solitary addition of NPK, under the agro-metrological circumstances of Multan, Pakistan.
Optimal Policy under Dollar Pricing

Empirical evidence shows that most international prices are sticky in dollars. This paper studies the policy implications of this fact in the context of an open economy model with general preferences, technologies, asset markets, nominal rigidities, and a rich set of shocks. We show that although monetary policy is less efficient and cannot implement the flexible-price allocation, inflation targeting and a floating exchange rate remain robustly optimal in non-US economies. The capital controls cannot unilaterally improve the allocation and are useful only when coordinated across countries. International cooperation benefits other economies, but is not in the self-interest of the United States. (JEL E31, E52, F14, F31, F38, F41)
Growth , yield and economy of papaya as influenced by organic and integrated nutrient management farming system under South Gujarat condition

The results of pool data of two year revealed that among the organic treatments, O 4 showed superiority with respect to growth and yield parameters over O 1 and O 2 but it was closely followed by O 3 . The values recorded with O 4 treatment of plant height at harvest (123.06 cm), stem girth at harvest (35.64 cm), petiole length (46.33 cm), number of leaves/plant (33), number of fruits/plant (22.33), average fruit weight (0.956 kg), fruit yield/plant (21.68 kg) and fruit yield (68.83 t/ha) were significantly higher as compared to rest of the organic treatments. However, application of sap @ 8 l/plant in 8 equal splits (S 1 ) increased the plant height, girth, number of fruits/plant and fruit yield (t/ha) by 12.3, 17.0, 6.8 and 11.2 per cent, respectively over no application of sap (S 0 ). Similarly, the yield attributes viz., average fruit weight, number of fruits per plant and fruit yield (t/ha) were also differed significantly between the mean of organics treatments and INM control. Under both the farming system, the economics was computed in two way i.e. selling price same for organic as well as INM fruit and premium price for fruits of organic nutrient management system. At same price of fruit (Rs 5/kg), the net profit realized with INM was Rs. 3, 07,520/ha with BCR of 3.3 as against the net profit of Rs. 1,32,224/ha with BCR of 0.77 with organic treatment mean. The best organic treatment O 4 the net profit (1, 61, 788 Rs/ha) was almost half of the INM. Alternative scenario generated by considering premium price for organic product (Rs 10/kg), the net income realized was raised to Rs. 4,36,674/ha with BC of 2.53. This was also true for S 0 and S 1 , where S 1 recorded net profit of Rs. 4,47,914/ha with premium price as against Rs. 4, 08,506/ha with S 0 .
Blood parameters, carcass yield, organ weight and villi morphometrics of broilers fed low protein diet in excess of dietary lysine

One hundred and fifty day-old Abor-acre strain broilers chicks were used to evaluate the blood parameters, carcass yield, organ weight and villi morphometrics of broilers fed low protein diet in excess of dietary lysine. The chicks were weighed on the eight day and then randomly assigned to five experimental diets in such a way that each dietary treatment had 30 birds replicated thrice. Diet 1 was the control with 22.22% crude protein (CP) while diets 2, 3, 4 and 5 contained 16.6% CP each at both starter and finisher phases with varying levels of lysine ranging from 0.50 to 0.90%. They all had the same level of methionine. Results showed that the birds fed diet 4 (16.6% CP and 0.8% lysine inclusion level) had a significantly (p<0.05) higher breast, villi height, crypt depth and muscle thickness while the lymphocyte count, total protein, abdominal fat and back size increased linearly with lysine inclusion unlike decreases in heterophil among birds fed LCP diets. It can be concluded that increased villi morphology enhanced breast yield due to enhanced absorption with increased abdominal fat as observed in birds fed 16.6% CP and 0.8% lysine inclusion level.
Probing Word and Sentence Embeddings for Long-distance Dependencies Effects in French and English

The recent wide-spread and strong interest in RNNs has spurred detailed investigations of the distributed representations they generate and specifically if they exhibit properties similar to those characterising human languages. Results are at present inconclusive. In this paper, we extend previous work on long-distance dependencies in three ways. We manipulate word embeddings to translate them in a space that is attuned to the linguistic properties under study. We extend the work to sentence embeddings and to new languages. We confirm previous negative results: word embeddings and sentence embeddings do not unequivocally encode fine-grained linguistic properties of long-distance dependencies.

McGuiness, Adam (2018)Facebook-mediated social support in the transgen- der community: a thematic analysis of user experiences. UNSPECIFIED

The transgender community has unique social support needs due to the myriad of issues surrounding their physical and psychological transition, however identification and discussion of these needs has been neglected in previous literature, which has had an almost exclusively quantitative focus. The present study aimed to explore the ways in which social support was given and received through the medium of Facebook groups, developed by and for transgender users of the social networking site. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with seven transgender participants and the data were subjected to analysis using the principles of thematic analysis established by Braun and Clarke (2006). The analysis led to the uncovering of three main themes – the types of social support on offer, the features of transgender specific Facebook groups, and the role of interpersonal interaction in the perceptions of social support. Previous definitions of social support are expanded upon, suggesting that minority groups may provide social support to peers in a manner specific to that group's needs. Facebook also provides a unique space in which to provide support in a manner more suited to the needs of the transgender community. Implications and limitations of the findings are discussed.
Does Bank Competition Increase Bank Liquidity Creation? A State-level Perspective

The proper role of regulations regarding bank competition is to encourage depressed local credit market. Does enhanced competition through bank deregulation revive local economy? Exploiting staggered bank deregulation events in the United States, I document that state-level bank deregulation does, on average, not significantly affect state-level bank liquidity creation, which is an explicit bank-side channel to add value to local market. In addition, state-level subsample analysis and bank-level analysis show that states and banks respond to the state-level deregulation events differently. My results suggest that the policy, that is applied to all heterogeneous banks and states in the same way, does not fit all.
Generalized linear models for network analysis

Network modelling appear in a variety of disciplines, we can find them among other disciplines in computer science, sociology, economics and biology. Exponential random graph models are widely used to model these networks. We will focus on generalized linear models as a new approach to analyse the data. The derived approach by generalized linear models is implemented in R and is used to analyse a gene regulatory network. The results with generalized linear models is compared with an already existing model: Network Enrichment Analysis Test. The data analysis with generalized linear models gives results that are partly in line with the results achieved by Network Enrichment Analysis Test.
MAIN COMPLICATIONS AND CLINICAL OUTCOMES OF ELDERLY TRAUMA VICTIMS ADMITTED TO INTENSIVE THERAPY UNIT *

Objective: To identify the main complications and the clinical outcome of elderly trauma victims admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of a referral hospital of Distrito Federal between July 2012 and July2014. Method: Retrospective analytical study that uses medical records. Data were analyzed using Chi-Square and Mann-Whitney tests, and a significance value of p <0.05 was considered. Results: Most of the 91 elderly were men, whose mechanism of injury was falls from standing height. The main complications were pulmonary infection, tracheostomy due to prolonged intubation and septic shock. There was a high mortality rate: 38 (41.7%), associated with male gender (p = 0.029), other external causes (p = 0.03), septic shock (p = 0.039) and dialysis (p = 0.015). Conclusion: The severe condition of the patients favored the occurrence of multiple complications during hospitalization in intensive care. However, despite the worst prognosis, the elderly may survive the trauma and its associated complications.
THUEE SYSTEM FOR DCASE 2019 CHALLENGE TASK 2 Technical Report

In this report, we described our submission for the task 2 of Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events (DCASE) 2019 Challenge: Audio tagging with noisy labels and minimal supervision. Our methods are mainly based on two types of deep learning models: Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network (CRNN) and DenseNet. In order to prevent overfitting, we adopted data augmentation using mixup strategy and SpecAugment. Besides, we designed a staged loss function to train our models using both curated and noisy data. We also used various acoustic features, including log-mel energies and perceptual Constant-Q transform (p-CQT), and tried an ensemble of multiple subsystems to enhance the generalization capability of our system. Our final system achieved a lwlrap score of 0.742 on the public leaderboard in Kaggle.
