Free Float and Volatility Effect on Stock Liquidity in Indonesia Stock Exchange

Liquidity is one of the important things in investing in the stock market. The Indonesia Stock Exchange as a regulator makes and establishes regulations in the capital market to conduct trading in an orderly, fair and efficient manner. One of the amended provisions in the regulation is regarding the free float or the percentage of the number of shares outstanding in the public with the aim of increasing the liquidity of the listed shares. In addition to free float, the risk in investing also needs to be considered. Behind a high return there is a high risk as well. High risk in the volatility of stock returns. High volatility attracts investors to invest in the stock market. Investors with risk-taking tendencies prefer this high-volatility condition because it allows them to earn higher returns, thereby increasing liquidity through the trading volume of these shares. This study involves a number of control variables that together determine market liquidity, namely Stock Return, Firm Size and Stock Price. The analysis was carried out on property and construction sector companies listed in the 2016-2020 period. The analytical method used is multiple linear regression analysis using the E-Views 10 application. The results of the analysis found that free float and volatility have a positive effect on stock liquidity, either by including or including control variables. These results indicate that information about free float and volatility is a consideration in capital market investment decisions.
Stationary liquid drops in Lorentz-Minkowski space

This paper analyzes the configurations of shapes that shows a spacelike liquid drop in Minkowski space deposited over a spacelike plane $\Pi$. We assume the presence of a uniform gravity field directed toward $\Pi$ and that the volume of the drop is prescribed. Our interest are the liquid drops that are critical points of the energy of the corresponding mechanical system and we will say then that the liquid drop is stationary. In such case, the liquid-air interface is determined by the condition that the mean curvature is a linear function of distance from $\Pi$ and that the drop makes a constant hyperbolic angle of contact with the plate $\Pi$. As first result, we shall prove that the liquid drop must be rotational symmetric with respect to an axis orthogonal to $\Pi$. Then we prove the existence and uniqueness of symmetric solutions for a given angle of contact with $\Pi$. Finally, we shall study the shapes that a liquid drop can adopt in terms of its size. So, we shall derive estimates of its height, volume and area of the wetted surface on $\Pi$.
A SPECTROSCOPIC ANALYSIS OF THE GALACTIC GLOBULAR CLUSTER NGC 6273 (M19)

A combined effort utilizing spectroscopy and photometry has revealed the existence of a new globular cluster class. These “anomalous” clusters, which we refer to as “iron-complex” clusters, are differentiated from normal clusters by exhibiting large (≳0.10 dex) intrinsic metallicity dispersions, complex sub-giant branches, and correlated [Fe/H] and s-process enhancements. In order to further investigate this phenomenon, we have measured radial velocities and chemical abundances for red giant branch stars in the massive, but scarcely studied, globular cluster NGC 6273. The velocities and abundances were determined using high resolution (R ∼ 27,000) spectra obtained with the Michigan/Magellan Fiber System (M2FS) and MSpec spectrograph on the Magellan–Clay 6.5 m telescope at Las Campanas Observatory. We find that NGC 6273 has an average heliocentric radial velocity of +144.49 km s−1 (σ = 9.64 km s−1) and an extended metallicity distribution ([Fe/H] = −1.80 to −1.30) composed of at least two distinct stellar populations. Although the two dominant populations have similar [Na/Fe], [Al/Fe], and [α/Fe] abundance patterns, the more metal-rich stars exhibit significant [La/Fe] enhancements. The [La/Eu] data indicate that the increase in [La/Fe] is due to almost pure s-process enrichment. A third more metal-rich population with low [X/Fe] ratios may also be present. Therefore, NGC 6273 joins clusters such as ω Centauri, M2, M22, and NGC 5286 as a new class of iron-complex clusters exhibiting complicated star formation histories.
Deformation measurement within lithium-ion battery using sparse-view computed tomography and digital image correlation

Electrode deformation can cause high local strain and serious capacity degradation in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) during cycling. Risk reduction in many applications requires an understanding of the effects of the charging/discharging rate on the electrode structure during the battery life cycle. Cyclic charging/discharging experiments of wound 18 650 cylindrical LIBs were conducted at different charging/discharging rates (1C and 2C) to determine the effect of rate on electrode deformation. The charging/discharging capacity as well as battery voltage and time were analyzed during cycling. To acquire electrode deformation images and meet the requirements of computed tomography (CT) within 2 min during the charging/discharging process, sparse-view CT was performed at fixed cycle intervals. Subsequently, a sparse-view reconstruction network was proposed to generate a slice image. Finally, the electrode displacement and strain fields were calculated using the augmented Lagrangian digital image correlation algorithm. The causes of electrode deformation were analyzed and discussed from the perspective of molecular and macroscopic structure. Experimental results show that the structural similarity, peak signal-to-noise ratio and root mean square error in the reconstructed image of the axial section within the battery obtained via the proposed network were 0.9616, 38.7411 dB and 0.0108, respectively, which were better than the other methods of comparison. After 100 cycles, the capacity decay of the battery at 2C was 9.23-fold higher than that at 1C. After 100 cycles at 2C, the maximum displacement of the electrode reached 0.46 mm along the x-direction. The electrode structural deformation of the battery can be intuitively understood at different rates, which facilitates reasonable utilization and structural optimization of the battery.
Finite Dimensional Representations of Clifford Algebras of Polynomials

Finite dimensional representations of Clifford algebras of polynomials are built using generalized Clifford algebras, and their matricial representations are explicitly constructed. The aim of this note is to make a comparison between Clifford algebras of polynomials [1-9] and generalized Clifford algebras [10-15]. The latter ones can be considered as the basic tools for a systematic construction of a finite dimensional (but not faithful) representation of the former [15]. In the sequel such a representation Lm(f, n, p) is named the linearizing algebra of f , m is the dimension of the representation and f is a polynomial of degree n with p indeterminates defined on I C(a more general field can also be considered). We just consider homogeneous polynomials, because inhomogeneous polynomials can be mapped into homogeneous ones using the projective coordinates (
Renoprotective effect of Tanshinone IIA against kidney injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion in obese rats

Objective: Obesity enhances the frequency and severity of acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR). Tanshinone IIA (TIIA) pre-treatment was used to alleviate renal injury induced by renal IR, and whether TIIA can attenuate renal cell apoptosis via modulating mitochondrial function through PI3K/Akt/Bad pathway in obese rats was examined. Methods: Male rates were fed a high-fat diet for 8 weeks to generate obesity, followed by 30 min of kidney ischemia and 24 h reperfusion induced AKI. The male obese rates were given TIIA (5 mg/kg.d, 10 mg/kg.d, and 20 mg/kg.d) for 2 weeks before renal IR. Results: TIIA alleviated the pathohistological injury and apoptosis induced by IR. In addition, TIIA improved renal function, inflammatory factor, and balance of oxidation and antioxidation in obese rats after renal IR. At the same time, TIIA can inhibit cell apoptosis by improving mitochondrial function through the PI3K/Akt/Bad pathway. Mitochondrial dysfunction was supported by decreasing intracellular ATP, respiration controlling rate (RCR), mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and mitochondrial respiratory chain complex enzymes, and by increasing ROS, the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), and the mtDNA damage. The injury to mitochondrial dynamic function was assessed by decreasing Drp1, and increasing Mfn1/2; and the injury of mitochondrial biogenesis was assessed by decreasing PGC-1, Nrf1, and TFam. Conclusions: Renal mitochondrial dysfunction occurs along with renal IR and can induce renal cell apoptosis. Obesity can aggravate apoptosis. TIIA can attenuate renal cell apoptosis via modulating mitochondrial function through PI3K/Akt/Bad pathway in obese rats.
ACGAN: Age-compensated makeup transfer based on homologous continuity generative adversarial network model

The authors focus on the makeup transformation problem, which refers to the transfer of makeup from a reference face to a source face image while maintaining the source makeup ‐ free face image. In recent years, makeup transformation has become a hot issue and a lot of research has been conducted on this basis, but there are some limitations in the existing methods, mainly due to the lack of consideration of age factor
REFLECTIONS ON THE USE OF CONJOINT ANALYSIS AS A DUAL METHODS IN NEUROMARKETING RESEARCH

Neuromarketing techniques provide valuable insights regarding consumer’s subconscious decision-making experience. However, there are traditional methods well-favoured for its ability to explain consumer’s conscious trade-offs known as conjoint analysis. Although the two methods differ greatly, both possess qualities that benefits and limits researchers the entire duration of a study. Therefore, comparison of the methods could provide opportunities for improvement. Recently, integration of neuromarketing techniques and conjoint analysis are utilized under one study simultaneously and resulted in a more holistic understanding of a controlled situation. Further analysis on neuromarketing techniques, conjoint analysis, and dual method may enlighten researchers on an effective and efficient alternative of data collection to obtain higher quality of information. This mini review articulate characteristics of both methods and identifies significance of a dual method in research efforts.
Notes on hyperscaling violating Lifshitz and shear diffusion

We explore in greater detail our investigations of shear diffusion in hyperscaling violating Lifshitz theories in arXiv:1604.05092 [hep-th]. This adapts and generalizes the membrane-paradigm-like analysis of Kovtun, Son and Starinets for shear gravitational perturbations in the near horizon region given certain self-consistent approximations, leading to the shear diffusion constant on an appropriately defined stretched horizon. In theories containing a gauge field, some of the metric perturbations mix with some of the gauge field perturbations and the above analysis is somewhat more complicated. We find a similar near-horizon analysis can be obtained in terms of new field variables involving a linear combination of the metric and the gauge field perturbation resulting in a corresponding diffusion equation. Thereby as before, for theories with Lifshitz and hyperscaling violating exponents $z, \theta$ satisfying $z<4-\theta$ in four bulk dimensions, our analysis here results in a similar expression for the shear diffusion constant with power-law scaling with temperature suggesting universal behaviour in relation to the viscosity bound. For $z=4-\theta$, we find logarithmic behaviour.
An Examination of the Role of Sluggish Cognitive Tempo as a Moderator of the Relationship Between ADHD and Nicotine Use

Objective: ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by executive dysfunction and functional impairments including nicotine consumption. Sluggish cognitive tempo (SCT) has been associated with ADHD and posited as an independent construct. The present study hypothesized that SCT would moderate the relationships between ADHD and nicotine-related behaviors. Method: Participants (n = 309) were recruited using Mechanical Turk and completed measures of ADHD symptoms, SCT, and smoking history. Results: ADHD was associated with age of initiation of smoking and more severe withdrawal symptoms for both combustible and electronic cigarettes. SCT significantly moderated the relationship between ADHD and withdrawal symptom severity (both electronic and combustible cigarettes). Conclusion: The results of the present study suggest that SCT plays an important role in the complex relationship between ADHD and smoking withdrawal. Future research should further explore the construct of SCT to better understand its role in psychopathology and intervention strategies.
UV LUMINOSITY FUNCTIONS AT REDSHIFTS z ∼ 4 TO z ∼ 10: 10,000 GALAXIES FROM HST LEGACY FIELDS

The remarkable Hubble Space Telescope (HST) data sets from the CANDELS, HUDF09, HUDF12, ERS, and BoRG/HIPPIES programs have allowed us to map the evolution of the rest-frame UV luminosity function (LF) from z ∼ 10 ? > to z ∼ 4 ? > . We develop new color criteria that more optimally utilize the full wavelength coverage from the optical, near-IR, and mid-IR observations over our search fields, while simultaneously minimizing the incompleteness and eliminating redshift gaps. We have identified 5859, 3001, 857, 481, 217, and 6 galaxy candidates at z ∼ 4 ? > , z ∼ 5 ? > , z ∼ 6 ? > , z ∼ 7 ? > , z ∼ 8 ? > , and z ∼ 10 ? > , respectively, from the ∼1000 arcmin2 area covered by these data sets. This sample of >10,000 galaxy candidates at z ≥ 4 ? > is by far the largest assembled to date with HST. The selection of z ∼ ? > 4–8 candidates over the five CANDELS fields allows us to assess the cosmic variance; the largest variations are at z ≥ 7 ? > . Our new LF determinations at z ∼ 4 ? > and z ∼ 5 ? > span a 6 mag baseline and reach to –16 AB mag. These determinations agree well with previous estimates, but the larger samples and volumes probed here result in a more reliable sampling of > L * ? > galaxies and allow us to reassess the form of the UV LFs. Our new LF results strengthen our earlier findings to 3.4 &sgr; ? > significance for a steeper faint-end slope of the UV LF at z > 4 ? > , with α evolving from &agr; = − 1.64 ± 0.04 ? > at z ∼ 4 ? > to &agr; = − 2.06 ± 0.13 ? > at z ∼ 7 ? > (and &agr; = − 2.02 ± 0.23 ? > at z ∼ 8 ? > ), consistent with that expected from the evolution of the halo mass function. We find less evolution in the characteristic magnitude M* from z ∼ 7 ? > to z ∼ 4 ; ? > the observed evolution in the LF is now largely represented by changes in φ * ? > . No evidence for a non-Schechter-like form to the z ∼ 4–8 LFs is found. A simple conditional LF model based on halo growth and evolution in the M/L ratio ( ∝ ( 1 + z ) − 1.5 ) ? > of halos provides a good representation of the observed evolution.

Linking Phytoplankton Activity in Polynyas and Sulfur Aerosols over Zhongshan Station, East Antarctica

AbstractMultiple year-round aerosol samplings were conducted from February 2005 to October 2008 at Zhongshan Station, a research base in East Antarctica, to study methanesulfonic acid (MSA) and non-sea-salt sulfate (nss-SO42−). The concentrations of atmospheric sulfur species exhibited a seasonal cycle; the maximum and minimum concentrations occurred in austral summer and austral winter, respectively. Significant correlations between chlorophyll a (Chl a) in offshore polynyas and both MSA (r = 0.726, n = 52, and p < 0.01) and nss-SO42− (r = 0.724, n = 48, and p < 0.01) were found, indicating that the phytoplankton activity had a crucial effect on the sulfur aerosols. The sea ice dynamics in the polynyas and the variations in the polynya area may indirectly influence the sulfur aerosols in austral spring and summer. In austral winter, the sulfur compounds in the atmosphere are primarily originating in long-range transported by-products from remote regions because nearly no phytoplankton activity occurred i.
Ginger Root Extract Improves GI Health in Diabetic Rats by Improving Intestinal Integrity and Mitochondrial Function

Background Emerging research suggests hyperglycemia can increase intestinal permeability. Ginger and its bioactive compounds have been reported to benefit diabetic animals due to their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. In this study, we revealed the beneficial effect of gingerol-enriched ginger (GEG) on intestinal health (i.e., barrier function, mitochondrial function, and anti-inflammation) in diabetic rats. Methods Thirty-three male Sprague Dawley rats were assigned to three groups: low-fat diet (control group), high-fat-diet (HFD) + streptozotocin (single low dose 35 mg/kg body weight (BW) after 2 weeks of HFD feeding) (DM group), and HFD + streptozotocin + 0.75% GEG in diet (GEG group) for 42 days. Glucose tolerance tests (GTT) and insulin tolerance tests (ITT) were conducted at baseline and prior to sample collection. Total pancreatic insulin content was determined by ELISA. Total RNA of intestinal tissues was extracted for mRNA expression using qRT-PCR. Results Compared to the DM group, the GEG group had improved glucose tolerance and increased pancreatic insulin content. Compared to those without GEG (DM group), GEG supplementation (GEG group) increased the gene expression of tight junction (Claudin-3) and antioxidant capacity (SOD1), while it decreased the gene expression for mitochondrial fusion (MFN1), fission (FIS1), biogenesis (PGC-1α, TFAM), mitophagy (LC3B, P62, PINK1), and inflammation (NF-κB). Conclusions Ginger root extract improved glucose homeostasis in diabetic rats, in part, via improving intestinal integrity and mitochondrial dysfunction of GI health.
Diagnostic Performance of Multiplex PCR for Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex in Presumptive Pulmonary Tuberculosis Patients and Its Utility in Smear Negative Specimens

Abstract Objective The primary objective of this study was to assess the diagnostic performance of multiplex polymerase chain reaction (mPCR) for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) in presumptive pulmonary TB patients, in the setting of a tertiary level teaching hospital in central India, in comparison to liquid culture using BACTEC mycobacteria growth indicator tubes (MGIT) 960 TB system as the gold standard. The secondary objective was to assess the performance of mPCR for Ziehl Neelsen smear negative samples and ascertain the utility of this assay in smear negative samples. Materials and Methods Sputum or bronchoalveolar lavage samples were collected from patients who were adults, aged 18 years or older, presenting with presumptive pulmonary TB, and subjected to three microbiological investigations, that is, Ziehl Neelsen staining, mycobacterial culture using mycobacterial growth indicator tubes in the BD BACTEC MGIT 960 instrument, and the mPCR. Statistical Analysis For statistical analysis, 2 × 2 contingency tables were prepared and analyzed separately for all samples and for smear-negative samples using GraphPad and MedCalc tools. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value (NPV) of mPCR were calculated by taking MGIT culture as the reference standard. Results For all samples ( n = 114), sensitivity of mPCR for the detection of (MTBC) was 93.48% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 82.10–98.63%), specificity was 95.59% (95% CI: 87.64–99.08%), positive predictive value (PPV) was 93.48% (95% CI: 82.54–97.75%), and NPV was 95.59% (95% CI: 87.87–98.48%). For smear negative samples ( n = 80), sensitivity was 80.00% (95% CI: 51.91–95.67%), specificity was 98.46% (95% CI: 91.72–99.96%), PPV was 92.31% (95% CI: 62.80–98.84%), and NPV was 95.52% (95% CI: 88.57–98.33%). Conclusion In this study, we were able to demonstrate the good performance characteristics of the mPCR for the detection of MTBC from clinical samples of patients with presumptive pulmonary tuberculosis, with MGIT liquid culture as the reference standard. It may be concluded that mPCR can be considered equivalent to MGIT culture in terms of clinical decision making and yield of positivity, owing to the good sensitivity and specificity for the detection of MTBC.
