Der geistig-kulturelle Umgang mit der Covid-19-Pandemie und ihrer Wirtschaftskrise als Testfall
Authors: Krüger Hans-Peter 
Published: March 2021

AbstractWhy has the global West (North America, Europe) handled the covid-19 pandemic and the corresponding economic crisis so much worse than the global East (East Asia)? The crises demonstrate the degree to which the West is shaped by its forms of competition and the East by its forms of cooperation. In the West, we have become habitualised to American neoliberalism over the last two generations. In the East, varieties of neo-Confucianism and neo-Buddhism have been transformed into national cultures. The way humans understand their position in the world intellectually and react to crises according to corresponding habit makes an effective difference. The present comparison between global East and West makes use of Hannah Arendt’s conception ofpoliticsand theshared worldas well as of Helmuth Plessner’s conception ofmediated immediacyin forms ofmodern biopower. The pandemic is a catalyst within the decline of the West and the rise of the East.
Recht und Pflicht – Einschränkungen von Freiheit?
Authors: Vieweg Klaus 
Published: March 2021

AbstractCan one speak philosophically of a justified limitation of freedom? Hegel’s logically founded definition of free will and his understanding of right and duty can contribute to a clarification of the concept of freedom. Important is a precise differentiation between freedom and caprice(Willkür)– the latter being a necessary but one-sided element of the free will. In caprice, the will is not yet in the form of reason. Rational rights and duties are not a restriction of freedom. Insofar as individual rights can collide (e. g. in emergency situations), there can be a temporary and proportionate restriction of certain rights in favour of higher rights, such as the right to life. Dictatorships are instances of capricious rule which restrict freedom; the rationally designed state, by contrast, restricts only caprice. What is tobe defined are the duties and the rights of the state and the duties and the rights of the citizens.
A simple scheme for calculating the energy harvesting figures of merit of porous ceramics
Authors: Caballero-Pérez Rogelio O. , Bravo-Castillero Julián , Pérez-Fernández Leslie D. 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
We propose a scheme based on recursively applying analytical formulae for effective properties to a class of porous ceramics for calculating their energy harvesting figures of merit. We approximate the structure of freeze-cast PZT parallel laminae joined by links (or bridges) by a model that can be broken down into two directions along which the structure resembles a laminate. The effective coefficients obtained in the first step of the recursion are then used as input on the second step which gives the final effective moduli. The comparison of those with calculations via Finite Element Method (FEM) on a non-recursive model shows good agreement. Finally, we calculate the piezoelectric and pyroelectric figures of merit and compare them with experimental results. The proposed scheme is a good alternative since it relies only on known simple analytical formulae and has a very low computational cost with respect to other methods that may be applied to such a geometry.
Using the geodetic and hydroacoustic measurements toinvestigate the bathymetric and morphometric parameters ofLake Hancza (Poland)

Published: March 2021

Abstract
Most of the inland lakes do not have up-to-datebathymetry. However, a significant progress in surveyingtechnologies creates a possibility to quickly and accuratelydescribe the underwater environment. Modern geodeticand global positioning techniques integrated with hydroacousticsystems provide a great opportunity to study thebottom shape with high resolution. Our study presentsa reliable methodology for investigation of bathymetryand morphometric parameters with the use of GNSS positioningtechniques and single beam echosounder. Theresearch was implemented on the deepest, glacial reservoirin the central part of European Depression - LakeHancza. Direct hydroacoustic and geodetic measurementscompleted by sediment study were conducted by the authorsin 2010-2013. After performing a field survey the DigitalElevation Model was constructed and the new bathymetricmap and morphometric card were elaborated. Themaximum depth was confirmed to be 105.55 m. The finalconclusions show that the available bathymetric data andmorphometric parameters of lakes are highly dependenton the research methodology used, the precision and accuracyof measurement techniques, proper water level determination,digital elevation model and bathymetric mapelaboration processes.
The area under the generalized receiver-operating characteristic curve
Authors: Martínez-Camblor Pablo , Pérez-Fernández Sonia , Díaz-Coto Susana 
Published: March 2021

AbstractThe receiver operating-characteristic (ROC) curve is a well-known graphical tool routinely used for evaluating the discriminatory ability of continuous markers, referring to a binary characteristic. The area under the curve (AUC) has been proposed as a summarized accuracy index. Higher values of the marker are usually associated with higher probabilities of having the characteristic under study. However, there are other situations where both, higher and lower marker scores, are associated with a positive result. The generalized ROC (gROC) curve has been proposed as a proper extension of the ROC curve to fit these situations. Of course, the corresponding area under the gROC curve, gAUC, has also been introduced as a global measure of the classification capacity. In this paper, we study in deep the gAUC properties. The weak convergence of its empirical estimator is provided while deriving an explicit and useful expression for the asymptotic variance. We also obtain the expression for the asymptotic covariance of related gAUCs and propose a non-parametric procedure to compare them. The finite-samples behavior is studied through Monte Carlo simulations under different scenarios, presenting a real-world problem in order to illustrate its practical application. TheRcode functions implementing the procedures are provided as Supplementary Material.
Identification of common points in hybrid geodetic networks to determine vertical movements of the Earth’s crust
Authors: Kowalczyk Kamil , Kowalczyk Anna Maria , Rapiński Jacek 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
Simultaneous use of data repeated levelling measurements and continuous GNSS observations allows increasing the spatial resolution of geodynamics models. For this purpose, it is necessary to create a single network, a so-called hybrid network.
This paper aims at examining the possibility of using scale-free network theory to determine the most relevant common points in hybrid networks using the distance criterion. Used on European network points: UELN (United European Levelling Network) and EPN (European Permanent GPS Network) and the regional network.
In the hybrid network (UELN + EPN), 18 pseudo-nodal points with the highest number of links were identified. The accepted distance criterion shows that about 90 % of the EPN points can be used as common points. The application of the scale-free network theory allows determining the significance of points in a hybrid network.
The Quest for Certainty
Authors: Zanetti Luca 
Published: March 2021

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to vindicate the Cartesian quest for certainty by arguing that to aim at certainty is a constitutive feature of cognition. My argument hinges on three observations concerning the nature of doubt and judgment: first, it is always possible to have a doubt as towhetherpin so far as one takes the truth ofpto be uncertain; second, in so far as one takes the truth ofpto be certain, one is no longer able to genuinely wonder whetherpis true; third, to ask the question whetherpis to desire to receive a true answer. On this ground I clarify in what sense certainty is the aim of cognition. I then argue that in judging thatpwe commit ourselves top’s being certain and that certainty is the constitutive norm of judgment. The paper as a whole provides a picture of the interplay between doubt and judgment that aims at vindicating the traditional insight that our ability to doubt testifies our aspiration to know with absolute certainty.
Accurate diagnosis of prostate cancer using logistic regression
Authors: Hooshmand Arash 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
A new logistic regression-based method to distinguish between cancerous and noncancerous RNA genomic data is developed and tested with 100% precision on 595 healthy and cancerous prostate samples. A logistic regression system is developed and trained using whole-exome sequencing data at a high-level, i.e., normalized quantification of RNAs obtained from 495 prostate cancer samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas and 100 healthy samples from the Genotype-Tissue Expression project. We could show that both sensitivity and specificity of the method in the classification of cancerous and noncancerous cells are perfectly 100%.
Deterministic generation of parametrically driven dissipative Kerr soliton
Authors: Nie Mingming , Xie Yijun , Huang Shu-Wei 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
We theoretically study the nature of parametrically driven dissipative Kerr soliton (PD-DKS) in a doubly resonant degenerate micro-optical parametric oscillator (DR-DμOPO) with the cooperation of χ
(2) and χ
(3) nonlinearities. Lifting the assumption of close-to-zero group velocity mismatch (GVM) that requires extensive dispersion engineering, we show that there is a threshold GVM above which single PD-DKS in DR-DμOPO can be generated deterministically. We find that the exact PD-DKS generation dynamics can be divided into two distinctive regimes depending on the phase matching condition. In both regimes, the perturbative effective third-order nonlinearity resulting from the cascaded quadratic process is responsible for the soliton annihilation and the deterministic single PD-DKS generation. We also develop the experimental design guidelines for accessing such deterministic single PD-DKS state. The working principle can be applied to different material platforms as a competitive ultrashort pulse and broadband frequency comb source architecture at the mid-infrared spectral range.

Published: March 2021

Abstract
We demonstrate a simple, cost-effective method to enhance the photoluminescence intensity of monolayer MoS2. A hexagonal symmetric Au metasurface, made by polystyrene nanosphere lithography and metal coating, is developed to enhance the photoluminescence intensity of monolayer MoS2. By using nanospheres of different sizes, the localized surface plasmon resonances of the Au metasurfaces can be effectively tuned. By transferring monolayer MoS2 onto the Au metasurface, the photoluminescence signal of the monolayer MoS2 can be significantly enhanced up to 12-fold over a square-centimeter area. The simple, large-area, cost-effective fabrication technique could pave a new way for plasmon-enhanced light-mater interactions of atomically thin two-dimensional materials.
Donor Advised Funds in Canada, Australia and the US: Differing Regulatory Regimes, Differing Streams of Policy Drift
Authors: D. Phillips Susan , Dalziel Katherine , Sjogren Keith 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) are the fastest growing destination for charitable giving, and subject to vigorous debate over whether they should be more tightly regulated. Virtually all of the research on DAFs and the arguments for increased regulation emanate from the US. This article compares regulation in Canada and Australia with the US to demonstrate how different regimes lead to different uses of DAFs and different ‘market’ configurations. The conceptual framework presents three motivational scenarios for their use: as pseudo foundations, tax savings and protection of privacy. The differential effects of regulation on these donor scenarios explains why total DAF assets in Australia are proportionately much lower than its North American counterparts, mainly because its regime is not skewed as heavily toward the tax savings motivated donor. The findings raise serious questions as to whether DAFs have actually democratized philanthropy, as is so often claimed. In terms of policy change, all three countries have experienced policy drift, although for different reasons. However, COVID-19 pandemic may have created new windows of opportunity for regulatory reform.

Authors: Yusuf Tunde L. , Akintemi Eric O. , Olagboye Sulaimon , Tolufashe Gideon F. 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
Schiff base ligands have wide varieties of application in several fields. One of which is the biological actions they possess such as anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, anti-malarial, and anti-viral characteristics. In this study, some synthesized phenylimino-based Schiff bases were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) to unravel their biological descriptors. The gas-phase quantum chemical calculation was done on the Schiff base 3-((E)-(phenylimino)methyl)benzene-1,2-diol and other synthesized analogues to evaluate their reactivity and stability properties including the substituent effect on the basic molecule. The Coulomb-attenuating method (CAM-B3LYP) functional was employed for the theoretical calculations. The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Fourier Transform-Infrared (FT-IR), Ultraviolet/visible spectroscopies calculated agrees with the experimental values. The obtained charge transfer and electronic features provide useful information regarding the active sites for biological application in the compounds.
The 5 P’s to success in intrapreneurial programs
Authors: Feldmann Anna 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
In recent years, established companies have made increasing use of intrapreneurship programs – often in combination with innovation activities – in order to combine the advantages of large companies with the speed of start-ups. However, it remains unclear under what conditions such intrapreneurship endeavours work best. This paper therefore examines the meaning of success in this context and investigates what factors influence the success of such programs. By using a mixed-methods approach that includes a comprehensive literature analysis, an interview study with twelve intrapreneurs from the Fiducia & GAD IT AG, and developed guidelines, the paper outlines the success factors of intrapreneurship programs. Furthermore, the 5 P’s (People, Program, Product, Process, and Place) of successful intrapreneurship programs are classified in a model that builds on the 3-horizons-model of innovation. This model enables recommendations to be given for managers regarding how to contribute to the success of intrapreneurship programs.
Temperature-induced structural phase transitions in RERhSn (RE = Y, Gd-Tm, Lu)
Authors: Engelbert Simon , Hoffmann Rolf-Dieter , Kösters Jutta , Klenner Steffen , Pöttgen Rainer 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
The structures of the equiatomic stannides RERhSn with the smaller rare earth elements Y, Gd-Tm and Lu were reinvestigated on the basis of temperature-dependent single crystal X-ray diffraction data. GdRhSn crystallizes with the aristotype ZrNiAl at 293 and 90 K. For RE = Y, Tb, Ho and Er the HP-CeRuSn type (approximant with space group R3m) is already formed at room temperature, while DyRhSn adopts the HP-CeRuSn type below 280 K. TmRhSn and LuRhSn show incommensurate modulated variants with superspace groups P31m(1/3; 1/3; γ) 000 (No. 157.1.23.1) (γ = 3/8 for TmRhSn and γ = 2/5 for LuRhSn). The driving force for superstructure formation (modulation) is a strengthening of Rh–Sn bonding. The modulation is expressed in a 119Sn Mössbauer spectrum of DyRhSn at 78 K through line broadening.

Tendências Analíticas Acerca da Obrigatoriedade da Pré-escola: 10 anos da Promulgação da EC nº 59/09
Authors: Silva Denise Madeira de Castro 
Published: March 2021

Este artigo tem por objetivo produzir uma interpretação das análises oriundas de pesquisas publicadas em periódicos, teses e dissertações acerca da temática da obrigatoriedade da pré-escola, no período compreendido entre 2010 a 2020. Trata-se de um estudo teórico que buscou por intermédio do estudo sistemático dessa produção ir além de encontrar recorrências quantitativas, sendo assim, a interpretação permitiu delinear três tendências analíticas de forma qualitativa. A primeira refere-se à discussão de que a obrigatoriedade da pré-escola veio no bojo de outras leis que ampararam o ensino fundamental de nove anos e, por conseguinte, o encurtamento do período dedicado à educação infantil e às questões que envolvem o exercício de vivência do direito à infância das crianças. A segunda relaciona-se às agendas dos organismos multilaterais que buscam por intermédio do status conferido a determinadas evidências científicas, sobretudo àquelas advindas das neurociências, vincular a frequência na pré-escola a um bom resultado no ensino fundamental. A terceira apresenta as principais estratégias que os municípios lançaram mão para o alcance da universalização da pré-escola, entre elas o aumento dos convênios, a inserção de turmas de pré-escolas em escola de ensino fundamental, a oferta em turno parcial e a privatização da educação.
Fear of Falling among Community-dwelling Sedentary and Active Older People
Authors: Araya Alejandra-Ximena , Iriarte Evelyn 
Published: March 2021

Objective. The study sought to compare community-dwelling older people with respect to their level of physical activity and to the fear of falls between a group of sedentary elderly and a group of active elderly.
Methods. Cross-sectional descriptive study carried out with 113 community-dwelling older people (45 sedentary and 48 active), users of an outpatient care center of the private health system with a geriatric program in Santiago, Chile. The study measured socio-demographic variables, state of health, comprehensive geriatric assessment, exercise, depression with the Yesavage scale, and fear of falling with the Short Falls Efficacy Scale - International (Short FES-I).
Results. Sedentary older people have significantly higher scores in the Yesavage depression scale compared with active older people (4.2 versus 0.8). No statistically significant differences were found when comparing both groups of sedentary and active participants in terms of socio-demographic variables along with health, and functional and cognitive capacity. Regarding the fear of falling, the sedentary had a slightly higher score than the active (12 versus 11), although not significant.
Conclusion. This study showed that fear of falling was equal in sedentary and active older people who live in the community, although it was found that sedentary individuals had a higher risk of having a positive screening for geriatric depression in those participants who do not perform physical activity.
