description: Stochastic networks based on random point sets as nodes have attracted considerable interest in many applications, particularly in communication networks, including wireless sensor networks, peer-to-peer networks and so on. The study of such networks generally requires the nodes to be independently and uniformly distributed as a Poisson point process. In this work, we venture beyond this standard paradigm and investigate the stochastic geometry of networks obtained from \textit{directed spanning forests} (DSF) based on randomly perturbed lattices, which have desirable statistical properties as a models of spatially dependent point fields. In the regime of low disorder, we show in 2D and 3D that the DSF almost surely consists of a single tree. In 2D, we further establish that the DSF, as a collection of paths, converges under diffusive scaling to the Brownian web.
description: We improved the exposition of our approach to cover lattice perturbations that are uniform in the unit Euclidean cube. In this version we added many figures to explain our argument better

description: We set out a simple four sector macro model of the economy of the Roman Empire during a period of considerable economic prosperity. Our focus is on gold coins as currency and the seignor- age which the government used to fund its activities. We solve numerically for a balanced growth representation of the economy of the empire, a solution that captures the intricacies of money creation, currency expansion and seignorage. We subscribe to the view that the exhaustion of low-cost gold and silver deposits contributed significantly to the ending of the economic prosper- ity enjoyed by Roman Italy and its provinces during the so-called Pax Romana (31 BC to 165 CE) and we attempt to capture sig- nificant shifts in variables during the decline.

description: The cluster robust variance estimator (CRVE) relies on the number of clusters being sufficiently large. Monte Carlo evidence suggests that the “rule of 42” is not true for unbalanced clusters. Rejection frequencies are higher for datasets with 50 clusters proportional to U.S. state populations than with 50 balanced clusters. Using critical values based on the wild cluster bootstrap performs much better. However, this procedure fails when a small number of clusters is treated. We explain why CRVE t statistics and the wild bootstrap fail in this case, study the “effective number” of clusters, and simulate placebo laws with dummy variable regressors.

description: Many empirical projects involve estimation with clustered data. While esti- mation is straightforward, reliable inference can be challenging. Past research has suggested a number of bootstrap procedures when there are few clusters. I demonstrate, using Monte Carlo experiments, that these bootstrap procedures perform poorly with fewer than eleven clusters. With few clusters, the wild cluster bootstrap results in p-values that are not point identified. I suggest two alternative wild bootstrap procedures. Monte Carlo simulations provide evidence that a 6-point bootstrap weight distribution improves the reliability of inference. A brief empirical example concerning education tax credits highlights the implications of these findings.

description: The objective of this paper is to develop predictive models to classify Brazilian legal proceedings in three possible classes of status: (i) archived proceedings, (ii) active proceedings, and (iii) suspended proceedings. This problem's resolution is intended to assist public and private institutions in managing large portfolios of legal proceedings, providing gains in scale and efficiency. In this paper, legal proceedings are made up of sequences of short texts called "motions." We combined several natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning techniques to solve the problem. Although working with Portuguese NLP, which can be challenging due to lack of resources, our approaches performed remarkably well in the classification task, achieving maximum accuracy of .93 and top average F1 Scores of .89 (macro) and .93 (weighted). Furthermore, we could extract and interpret the patterns learned by one of our models besides quantifying how those patterns relate to the classification task. The interpretability step is important among machine learning legal applications and gives us an exciting insight into how black-box models make decisions.

description: The civil conflict literature explains the emergence and longevity of rebel movements by describing the structural factors in states coincident to conflict onset and extended conflict duration. In Uganda, the Lord's Resistance Army rebellion is in its third decade of existence and while the conflict literature provides some insight into the origins and endurance of the rebellion, the literature does not explain the responses of the government of Uganda to the rebellion. Instead, the actions and intentions of the Ugandan government are best explained by Uganda's status as an electoral authoritarian regime.

description: The influx of calcium ions into the dendritic spines through the N-metyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) channels is believed to be the primary trigger for various forms of synaptic plasticity. In this paper, the authors calculate analytically the mean values of the calcium transients elicited by a spiking neuron undergoing a simple model of ionic currents and back-propagating action potentials. The relative variability of these transients, due to the stochastic nature of synaptic transmission, is further considered using a simple Markov model of NMDA receptos. One finds that both the mean value and the variability depend on the timing between pre- and postsynaptic action-potentials. These results could have implications on the expected form of synaptic-plasticity curve and can form a basis for a unified theory of spike time-dependent, and rate based plasticity.

description: The international operation in Afghanistan has exposed distinct government and coalition approaches. Despite growing support of so-called Whole-of-Government (WoG) approaches amongst nations, little convergence is observed on the ground. This thesis "what explains the content and configuration of WoG approaches by state actors engaged in international peace operations"? Six hypotheses are presented to answer this question. These hypotheses were generated from the case study of the Norwegian WoG approach to Afghanistan post-2001. The findings presented here determine that the type of Whole-of-Government system that a government establishes in an international peace operation is greatly dependent on the domestic political and institutional environment of that country. It also establishes certain avenues through which WoG systems change and/or enabled. The hypotheses have great potential for advancing knowledge and understanding about how, why and in what configuration states engage.

description: We study the out-of-equilibrium properties of a classical integrable non-relativistic theory, with a time evolution initially prepared with a finite energy density in the thermodynamic limit. The theory considered here is the Non-Linear Schrodinger equation which describes the dynamics of the one-dimensional interacting Bose gas in the regime of high occupation numbers. The main emphasis is on the determination of the late-time Generalised Gibbs Ensemble (GGE), which can be efficiently semi-numerically computed on arbitrary initial states, completely solving the famous quench problem in the classical regime. We take advantage of known results in the quantum model and the semiclassical limit to achieve new exact results for the momenta of the density operator on arbitrary GGEs, which we successfully compare with ab-initio numerical simulations. Furthermore, we determine the whole probability distribution of the density operator (full counting statistics), whose exact expression is still out of reach in the quantum model.

title: Understanding socio-demographic change and sustainability in Scotland’s coastal communities
Creators: name: Duffy, Paula
Publisher: name: University of St Andrews
Year: 2019

description: The original contribution that this work offers is the understandings of demographic (un)sustainability of places and communities, and in particular, coastal communities with ties to marine related economies. This research considers population and social change in Scottish coastal communities using a relational approach and contributes to a growing field of coastal social research that seeks to inform marine planning policy. A relational approach was implemented by deploying a mixed-method research design in two phases. Phase one, applies a traditional population geography approach to develop a geodemographic profile, in order to characterise 149 coastal localities in Scotland. It builds on existing approaches by formulating a multi-level, dynamic typology. Phase two, focuses on coastal localities with economic ties to the marine industries. It employs a case study research design of three coastal localities (Banff, Cruden Bay and Peterhead) located on Scotland’s North East coast. The case study design focussed around the qualitative methods of in-depth interviews and ethnography, in order to explore the mobility practices influencing demographic change in the Scottish coastal context. The findings demonstrate the significance of local context, economy, opportunity and coastal identity to the socio-demographic sustainability of Scottish coastal populations, as shaped through the processes of mobility and immobility. The approach has created a working definition of the social coast that is applicable across localities in Scotland, and can be deployed to provide a taxonomic analysis for use in policy and planning more widely. The research also addresses a gap in the coastal geography literature, which has previously focussed on economic or cultural identity of coastal places, by considering the implications of population change to the construction of coastal places. Finally, the thesis was responsive to the ways of knowing traditionally mobilised in population geography and was able to critically reflect on the limitations that underpin them within the research process. The relational, mixed methods approach taken enabled a greater understanding of the importance of context, and the internal relationship between the characteristics of place and a population’s capacity to ‘answer back’.

description: The merger of close binary systems containing two neutron stars should produce a burst of gravitational waves, as predicted by the theory of general relativity. A reliable estimate of the double-neutron-star merger rate in the Galaxy is crucial in order to predict whether current gravity wave detectors will be successful in detecting such bursts. Present estimates of this rate are rather low, because we know of only a few double-neutron-star binaries with merger times less than the age of the Universe. Here we report the discovery of a 22-ms pulsar, PSR J0737-3039, which is a member of a highly relativistic double-neutron-star binary with an orbital period of 2.4 hours. This system will merge in about 85 Myr, a time much shorter than for any other known neutron-star binary. Together with the relatively low radio luminosity of PSR J0737-3039, this timescale implies an order-of-magnitude increase in the predicted merger rate for double-neutron-star systems in our Galaxy (and in the rest of the Universe).

description: While magnetic solid-state memory has found commercial applications to date, magnetic logic has rather remained on a conceptual level so far. Here, we discuss open challenges of different spintronic logic approaches, which use magnetic excitations for computation. While different logic gate designs have been proposed and proof of concept experiments have been reported, no nontrivial operational spintronic circuit has been demonstrated due to many open challenges in spintronic circuit and system design. Furthermore, the integration of spintronic circuits in CMOS systems will require the usage of transducers between the electric (CMOS) and magnetic domains. We show that these transducers can limit the performance as well as the energy consumption of hybrid CMOS-spintronic systems. Hence, the optimization of transducer efficiency will be a major step towards competitive spintronic logic system.

On Price Recognition and Computational Complexity in a Monopolistic Model
Creators: name: Rubinstein, Ariel
name: Rubinstein, Ariel
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 1991
Subjects: Financial Economics

description: The paper introduces a simple economic model in which the decision makers differ in their ability to recognize price offers. The cornerstone of the model is a market for an indivisible good produced by a monopolist who receives exclusive information on the state of nature affecting the production costs and the consumers' evaluation of the good. The market operates so that the monopolist has to commit himself to a price and each consumer has to decide whether he accepts or rejects the offer. The monopolist has an interest in only a fraction of the consumers accepting the offer. The heterogeneity of the consumers is modelled first, in terms of the limits on the fineness of the price recognition and second, in terms of the limits on the complexity of the computations they can make. In the second submodel, tools are borrowed from the parallel computation literature. In equilibrium, the monopolist announces a price scheme which is sufficiently complicated that only some of the consumers (the more "sophisticated" ones) can decode all the information contained in the prices. Such pricing strategies enable the monopolist to increase his profits relative to those he could derive from a set of homogeneous consumers.

description: Even if massive ($10\,M_\odot \lesssim M \lesssim 10^4 M_\odot$) primordial black holes (PBHs) can only account for a small fraction of the dark matter (DM) in the universe, they may still be responsible for a sizable fraction of the coalescence events measured by LIGO/Virgo, and/or act as progenitors of the supermassive black holes (SMBHs) observed already at high redshift ($z\gtrsim 6$). In presence of a dominant, non-PBH DM component, the bounds set by CMB via an altered ionization history are modified. We revisit the cosmological accretion of a DM halo around PBHs via toy models and dedicated numerical simulations, deriving updated CMB bounds which also take into account the last Planck data release. We prove that these constraints dominate over other constraints available in the literature at masses $M\gtrsim 20-50\,M_\odot$ (depending on uncertainty in accretion physics), reaching the level $f_{\rm PBH}<3\times 10^{-9}$ around $M\sim 10^{4}\,M_\odot$. These tight bounds are nonetheless consistent with the hypothesis of a primordial origin of the SMBH massive seeds.

description: We suggest a new adiabatic approach for description of three charged particles in the continuum. This approach is based on the Coulomb-Fourier transformation (CFT) of three body Hamiltonian, which allows to develop a scheme, alternative to Born-Oppenheimer one. The approach appears as an expansion of the kernels of corresponding integral transformations in terms of small mass-ratio parameter. To be specific, the results are presented for the system $ppe$ in the continuum. The wave function of a such system is compared with that one which is used for estimation of the rate for triple reaction $ p+p+e\to d+ν, $ which take place as a step of $pp$-cycle in the center of the Sun. The problem of microscopic screening for this particular reaction is discussed.

description: The aim of the article was to assess input-output in agribusiness in China in the 2000-2014 period. Examined the size and structure and the share of gross value added and global production output agribusiness in the creation of the Chinese economy, the directions for input-output structure and material supply in the Middle Kingdom agribusiness. The calculations were made on the basis of analysis of input-output tables which were created as part of the World Input-Output Database project. The analysis shows that in the years 2000-2014, the value of output of the entire agri-food sector in China increased more than 7.5 times, primarily due to the growth in the food industry. The main source of material flows to agriculture is the supply sphere, in turn to the food industry agriculture itself. The study also showed that Chinese agribusiness is characterized, inter alia, by low level of imported input. / Synopsis. Celem artykułu było ocena przepływów międzygałęziowych w agrobiznesie w Chinach w latach 2000-2014. Przebadano wielkość i strukturę oraz udział wyników produkcyjnych i dochodowych agrobiznesu w tworzeniu gospodarki chińskiej, określono kierunki przepływów międzygałęziowych oraz strukturę zaopatrzenia materiałowego w agrobiznesie Państwa Środka. Obliczenia zostały wykonane na podstawie tabel przepływów międzygałęziowych stworzonych w ramach projektu World Input-Output Database (WIOD). Główną zastosowaną metodą badawczą była analiza nakładów i wyników. Z przeprowadzonej analizy wynika, że w latach 2000-2014 wartość produkcji globalnej całego sektora rolno-żywnościowego w Chinach wzrosła ponad 7,5-krotnie przede wszystkim za sprawą wzrostu w przemyśle spożywczym. Głównym źródłem przepływów materiałowych do rolnictwa jest sfera zaopatrzenia, z kolei do przemysłu spożywczego samo rolnictwo. Ponadto badanie wykazało, że chiński agrobiznes cechuje między innymi niska importochłonność.

description: Energy transport can reveal information about interacting many-body systems beyond other transport probes. In particular, in one dimension it has been shown that the energy current is directly proportional to the central charge, thus revealing information about the degrees of freedom of critical systems. In this work, we explicitly verify this result in two cases for translationally invariant systems based on explicit microscopic calculations. More importantly, we generalise the result to non-translation invariant setups and use this to study a composite system of two subsystems possessing different central charges. We find a bottleneck effect meaning the smaller central charge limits the energy transport.

Good Samaritans with big bucks: How funding sources and organizational identities shape the behavior of humanitarian organizations
Creators: name: Poertner, Mathias
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Even when faced with the same humanitarian crisis, it appears quite puzzling how different humanitarian organizations respond so differently to the same situation and needs on the ground. This research project aims to answer the question of what explains the variation in the behavior of different humanitarian organizations in response to humanitarian crises during armed conflicts. Drawing on different strands of organization theory, this thesis proposes two competing hypotheses that distinguish between external and internal factors as main determinants of the variation in organizational behavior. Combing quantitative analysis of budgetary data with interviews with representatives of different international humanitarian organizations working in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the results show that not external demands and resources but institutionalized rules, typifications, and identities are the main determinant of the variation in behavior. While donors might have some influence on humanitarian organizations, this power is far less wide reaching than expected.

description: Most approaches to emotion analysis of social media, literature, news, and other domains focus exclusively on basic emotion categories as defined by Ekman or Plutchik. However, art (such as literature) enables engagement in a broader range of more complex and subtle emotions. These have been shown to also include mixed emotional responses. We consider emotions in poetry as they are elicited in the reader, rather than what is expressed in the text or intended by the author. Thus, we conceptualize a set of aesthetic emotions that are predictive of aesthetic appreciation in the reader, and allow the annotation of multiple labels per line to capture mixed emotions within their context. We evaluate this novel setting in an annotation experiment both with carefully trained experts and via crowdsourcing. Our annotation with experts leads to an acceptable agreement of kappa = .70, resulting in a consistent dataset for future large scale analysis. Finally, we conduct first emotion classification experiments based on BERT, showing that identifying aesthetic emotions is challenging in our data, with up to .52 F1-micro on the German subset.

A Model of Electron Transport in Dense Plasmas Spanning Temperature Regimes

description: We present a new model of electron transport in warm and hot dense plasmas which combines the quantum Landau-Fokker-Planck equation with the concept of mean-force scattering. We obtain electrical and thermal conductivities across several orders of magnitude in temperature, from warm dense matter conditions to hot, nondegenerate plasma conditions, including the challenging crossover regime between the two. The small-angle approximation characteristic of Fokker-Planck collision theories is mitigated to good effect by the construction of accurate effective Coulomb logarithms based on mean-force scattering, which allows the theory to remain accurate even at low temperatures, as compared with high-fidelity quantum simulation results. Electron-electron collisions are treated on equal footing as electron-ion collisions. Their accurate treatment is found to be essential for hydrogen, and is expected to be important to other low-Z elements. We find that electron-electron scattering remains influential to the value of the thermal conductivity down to temperatures somewhat below the Fermi energy. The accuracy of the theory seems to falter only for the behavior of the thermal conductivity at very low temperatures due to a subtle interplay between the Pauli exclusion principle and the small-angle approximation as they pertain to electron-electron scattering. Even there, the model is in fair agreement with ab initio simulations.

description: Mexico has tried to alleviate problems in the delivery and treatment of water for its population in an even and sustainable manner for nearly 100 years. Despite this effort, the country is still grappling with these problems. The focus of this research will be on laws and reforms enacted since country's decentralization process that started after the 1982 debt crisis. Particular attention will be paid to the 1992 National Water Law and why its model of horizontal, participatory management is largely failing. The city of Oaxaca will be used as a case study. Solutions will be proposed to address both administration challenges and economical ways to improve water access and treatment.

Non-stationary Spectra of Local Wave Turbulence

description: The evolution of the Kolmogorov-Zakharov (K-Z) spectrum of weak turbulence is studied in the limit of strongly local interactions where the usual kinetic equation, describing the time evolution of the spectral wave-action density, can be approximated by a PDE. If the wave action is initially compactly supported in frequency space, it is then redistributed by resonant interactions producing the usual direct and inverse cascades, leading to the formation of the K-Z spectra. The emphasis here is on the direct cascade. The evolution proceeds by the formation of a self-similar front which propagates to the right leaving a quasi-stationary state in its wake. This front is sharp in the sense that the solution remains compactly supported until it reaches infinity. If the energy spectrum has infinite capacity, the front takes infinite time to reach infinite frequency and leaves the K-Z spectrum in its wake. On the other hand, if the energy spectrum has finite capacity, the front reaches infinity within a finite time, t*, and the wake is steeper than the K-Z spectrum. For this case, the K-Z spectrum is set up from the right after the front reaches infinity. The slope of the solution in the wake can be related to the speed of propagation of the front. It is shown that the anomalous slope in the finite capacity case corresponds to the unique front speed which ensures that the front tip contains a finite amount of energy as the connection to infinity is made. We also introduce, for the first time, the notion of entropy production in wave turbulence and show how it evolves as the system approaches the stationary K-Z spectrum.
