description: I consider gravity induced over a smooth (finite thickness) soliton. Graviton kinetic term is coupled to bulk scalar that develops solitonic vacuum expectation value. Couplings of Kaluza-Klein modes to soliton-localized matter are suppressed, giving rise to crossover distance $r_c=M_{P}^2/M_{*}^3$ between 4D and 5D behavior. This system can be viewed as a finite thickness brane regularization of the model of Dvali, Gabadadze and Porrati.

description: Climate variability, the short-term fluctuations in average weather conditions and agriculture affect each other. Climate variability affects the agro ecological and growing conditions of crops and livestock, and is believed to be the greatest impediment to the realisation of the first Millennium Development Goal of reducing poverty and food insecurity in arid and semi-arid regions of developing countries. Conversely, agriculture is a major contributor to climate variability and change by emitting greenhouse gases and reducing the agro ecology’s potential for carbon sequestration. What however, is the empirical evidence of this inter-dependence of climate variability and agriculture in Sub-Sahara Africa? In this paper, we provide some insight into the long run relationship between inter-annual variations in temperature and rainfall versus annual yields of the most important staple food crops in Northern Ghana. Applying pooled panel data of rainfall, temperature and yields of selected crops from 1976 to 2010 to co-integration and Granger causality models, there is cogent evidence of co-integration between seasonal, total rainfall and crop yields; and causality from rainfall to crop yields in the Sudano-Guinea Savannah and Guinea Savannah zones of Northern Ghana. This suggests that inter-annual yields of the crops have been influenced by the total mounts of planting season rainfall. Temperature variability over the study period is however stationary, and is expected to have minimal effect if any on crop yields. Overall, the results confirm the fitness of our model of long-term relationships between climate and crop yield variables, and have implications for production decisions on croplivestock integration by smallholder farming systems.

description: Levy walks (LWs) define a fundamental class of finite velocity stochastic processes that can be introduced as a special case of continuous time random walks. Alternatively, there is a hyperbolic representation of them in terms of partial probability density waves. Using the latter framework we explore the impact of aging on LWs, which can be viewed as a specific initial preparation of the particle ensemble with respect to an age distribution. We show that the hyperbolic age formulation is suitable for a simple integral representation in terms of linear Volterra equations for any initial preparation. On this basis relaxation properties and first passage time statistics in bounded domains are studied by connecting the latter problem with solute release kinetics. We find that even normal diffusive LWs may display anomalous relaxation properties such as stretched exponential decay. We then discuss the impact of aging on the first passage time statistics of LWs by developing the corresponding Volterra integral representation. As a further natural generalization the concept of LWs with wearing is introduced to account for mobility losses.

description: Food and nutritional insecurity are responsible for poverty and low livelihoods of about 33% of people living in western part of Kenya. This is against MDG1. The production of sorghum which is a staple food crop is below 0.5 t/ha, against the potential of 3-4 t/ha. Drought is a major factor responsible for the low and declining yields of sorghum, especially in the smallholder farms where agricultural inputs including improved cultivars are not normally utilized. Drought tolerant sorghum variety has been developed and deployed to western Kenya and its uptake remains low. The study aimed at assessing factors influencing adoption of drought tolerant sorghum variety. The research was carried out in various sites in Nyanza and Western Provinces. Data was collected using structured questionnaires. Systematic random sampling was employed in selected sites to identify 100 small scale sorghum farmers. The results showed that about 88 percent of farmers used uncertified sorghum seed. About 41 percent of farmers were aware of drought tolerant sorghum. Despite the significant level of awareness, only 7 percent had adopted drought tolerant sorghum. The probit model identified age, gender, social capital, sorghum farm size, income, extension, and total land holding as significant factors affecting adoption of drought tolerant sorghum. It is recommended that technology disseminators in sorghum should target the older farmers; farmers to operate in groups to access technology, farmers to increase the land size allocated to sorghum, and extension agents should strengthen their role as the link between research and the farmer.

description: Visual object tracking is a fundamental task in the field of computer vision. Recently, Siamese trackers have achieved state-of-the-art performance on recent benchmarks. However, Siamese trackers do not fully utilize semantic and objectness information from pre-trained networks that have been trained on the image classification task. Furthermore, the pre-trained Siamese architecture is sparsely activated by the category label which leads to unnecessary calculations and overfitting. In this paper, we propose to learn a Domain-Aware, that is fully utilizing semantic and objectness information while producing a class-agnostic using a ridge regression network. Moreover, to reduce the sparsity problem, we solve the ridge regression problem with a differentiable weighted-dynamic loss function. Our tracker, dubbed DomainSiam, improves the feature learning in the training phase and generalization capability to other domains. Extensive experiments are performed on five tracking benchmarks including OTB2013 and OTB2015 for a validation set; as well as the VOT2017, VOT2018, LaSOT, TrackingNet, and GOT10k for a testing set. DomainSiam achieves state-of-the-art performance on these benchmarks while running at 53 FPS.

DESCRIPTION
Shell medium, thin but solid, rather fragiform and inequilateral with posterior slope higher, more flattened and truncated than medio-posterior and anterior shell regions; anterior margin well rounded.
Lunular area narrow, short, very slightly depressed, smooth, with margins slightly raised but not touching umbo, no sublunule.
External colour white to light yellow on the umbonal area; interior white with yellow to yelloworange spots in the umbonal cavity.
Cardinals connected in the right valve, unconnected in the left valve.
Ribs approximately 80.
Ribs on posterior slope divided into two regions (PT1 and PT2, Fig. 2B) of comparable size, separated by a very slight depression on the margin. Posterior zone (PT2) with 9 or 10 flatly triangular ribs, ornamented with serried tubercular scales on rib tops. Anterior zone (PT1) with approximately 9 or 10 ribs, wider and more triangular than ribs of PT2 and without ornaments. Median region with more than 60 narrow, flat to rounded ribs, with no indication of periostracal insertions.
Ocular organs absent.
ANATOMY
Siphonal area with two elongated apertures surrounded with thin, white tentacles.
MICROHABITAT
The single, live-collected specimen was recovered from 100- 107 m.
REMARKS
This taxon shares one character with the genus Fulvia, stronger ribs on the posterior slope than on the median and anterior shell regions. However, unlike most other Fulvia studied so far, Pseudofulvia arago n. sp. has a “fragiform” outline, with a relatively pronounced keel or carina, very thin ribs in the median and anterior shell regions, posterior ribs and interstices very strong and triangular, no periostracal insertions on any shell region, no granulations on the exterior shell surface and finally, no ocular organs on siphonal tentacles. Pseudofulvia arago n. sp. is distinguished from P. caledonica n. sp. by its larger adult size, absence of exterior granulations, connected cardinals in the right valve and unconnected cardinals in the left valve, no sublunule and the complete absence of periostracal insertions.

description: Rainwater harvesting is increasingly seen as a strategy for enhancing agricultural productivity and boosting farm income in many drought prone areas. While extensive efforts are going on in constructing and providing smallholder farmers with water harvesting structures, such as ponds in Rwanda, there is limited knowledge of the factors that influence adoption of such structures and their impact on households’ input use and farm income. This study applied propensity score matching technique to assess the impact of rainwater harvesting ponds on farm income of small scale farmers in Rwanda. The study also assesses the factors that influence adoption of rainwater harvesting ponds by using a binary logit model. Results show that households with rainwater harvesting ponds are significantly better off in terms of achieving higher income than those without ponds, even though they are comparable in essential household characteristics. The study finds that household size, physical and financial asset endowments, group membership are significant in explaining the household decision to adopt rainwater harvesting ponds. It discusses the implications of these findings for policy.

description: We reveal the cooperative effect of coherent and dissipative magnon-photon couplings in an open cavity magnonic system, which leads to nonreciprocity with a considerably large isolation ratio and flexible controllability. Furthermore, we discover unidirectional invisibility for microwave propagation, which appears at the zero-damping condition for hybrid magnon-photon modes. A simple model is developed to capture the generic physics of the interference between coherent and dissipative couplings, which accurately reproduces the observations over a broad range of parameters. This general scheme could inspire methods to achieve nonreciprocity in other systems.

description: Unitary representations of kinematical symmetry groups of quantum systems are fundamental in quantum theory. We propose in this paper its generalization to quantum kinematical groups. Using the method, proposed by us in a recent paper (olmo01), to induce representations of quantum bicrossproduct algebras we construct the representations of the family of standard quantum inhomogeneous algebras $U_λ(iso_ω(2))$. This family contains the quantum Euclidean, Galilei and Poincaré algebras, all of them in (1+1) dimensions. As byproducts we obtain the actions of these quantum algebras on regular co-spaces that are an algebraic generalization of the homogeneous spaces and $q$--Casimir equations which play the role of $q$--Schrödinger equations.

description: Many developing countries today are facing major challenges with regard to food security due to changes in rural land use, coupled with population pressure. One of the ways countries like Kenya has responded to this is by teaching agriculture at various levels of education especially secondary school level. Little has been done however; to establish whether there is any significant difference in agricultural productivity between farmers who graduate with secondary school agriculture knowledge and those without as a way of building farm capability hence the study. The sampling procedure adopted by this study was proportionate sampling technique, where a sub-sample of farmers from a target population of those farmers with secondary school agriculture knowledge and those without this knowledge and a total of 200 farmers where interviewed. Results show that farmers with secondary school agriculture knowledge perform significantly better than those without the secondary school agriculture knowledge and thus have higher levels of food security indicators in crop productivity, and level of household food security. It is concluded that farmers with secondary school agriculture knowledge perform significantly better in all farming aspects as compared to farmers without. The secondary school agriculture knowledge not only broadens farmers’ capacity, but also makes them more effective, self reliant, resourceful and capable of solving farming problems and as a result, significantly improves their crop productivity and hence guarantee food security for the family. The challenge for the teaching profession is finding out the best teaching methods as approaches both in and out of class.

description: This paper aims to provide new insights on the origin of the TeV source VER J1907+062 through new high-quality radio observations. We used the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to observe the whole extension of VER J1907+062 at 1.5 GHz with a mosaicking technique and the PSR J1907+0602 in a single pointing at 6 GHz. These data were used together with $^{12}$CO and atomic hydrogen observations obtained from public surveys to investigate the interstellar medium in the direction of VER J1907+062. The new radio observations do not show any evidence of a pulsar wind nebula (PWN) driven by the pulsars present in the field and no radio counterpart to the proposed X-ray PWN powered by PSR J1907+0602 is seen in the new VLA image at 6 GHz down to a noise level of 10 $μ$Jy/beam. Molecular clouds were discovered over the eastern, southern, and western borders of the radio shell of G40.5$-$0.5, suggesting an association with this supernova remnant. We explored several scenarios for the origin of VER J1907+062. We propose as the most probable scenario one in which the TeV emission is produced by two separated gamma-ray sources located at different distances: one of leptonic origin and associated with a PWN powered by PSR J1907+0602 at $\sim 3.2$ kpc and another of hadronic origin and produced by the interaction between G40.5$-$0.5 and the surrounding molecular gas at $\sim 8.7$ kpc.

description: We address the component-based regularisation of a multivariate Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GLMM). A set of random responses Y is modelled by a GLMM, using a set X of explanatory variables, a set T of additional covariates, and random effects used to introduce the dependence between statistical units. Variables in X are assumed many and redundant, so that regression demands regularisation. By contrast, variables in T are assumed few and selected so as to require no regularisation. Regularisation is performed building an appropriate number of orthogonal components that both contribute to model Y and capture relevant structural information in X. To estimate the model, we propose to maximise a criterion specific to the Supervised Component-based Generalised Linear Regression (SCGLR) within an adaptation of Schall's algorithm. This extension of SCGLR is tested on both simulated and real data, and compared to Ridge- and Lasso-based regularisations.

description: Recent advances illustrate the power of reservoir engineering in applications to many-body systems, such as quantum simulators based on superconducting circuits. We present a framework based on kinetic equations and noise spectra that can be used to understand both the transient and long-time behavior of many particles coupled to an engineered reservoir in a number-conserving way. For the example of a bosonic array, we show that the non-equilibrium steady state can be expressed, in a wide parameter regime, in terms of a modified Bose-Einstein distribution with an energy-dependent temperature.

Nonlinear Band Gap Transmission in Optical Waveguide Arrays

Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)

description: The effect of nonlinear transmission in coupled optical waveguide arrays is theoretically investigated via numerical simulations on the corresponding model equations. The realistic experimental setup is suggested injecting the beam in a single boundary waveguide, linear refractive index of which ($n_0$) is larger than one ($n$) of other identical waveguides in the array. Particularly, the effect holds if $ω(n_0-n)/c>2Q$, where $Q$ is a linear coupling constant between array waveguides, $ω$ is a carrier wave frequency and $c$ is a light velocity. Making numerical experiments in case of discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation it is shown that the energy transfers from the boundary waveguide to the waveguide array above certain threshold intensity of the injected beam. This effect is explained by means of the creation and propagation of gap solitons in full analogy with the similar phenomenon of nonlinear supratransmission [F. Geniet, J. Leon, PRL, {\bf 89}, 134102, (2002)] in case of discrete sine-Gordon lattice.

description: This study analyzes factors influencing growth of small and medium-large food-manufacturing establishments in the United States. The results provide evidence suggesting that small food manufacturing establishments tend to grow in areas with a relatively low per-capita income and in areas where the number of small establishments is large relative to the number of medium-large establishments. Incontrast, the number of medium-large establishments tends to increase in areas with a relatively high per-capita income and in areas where the number of small establishments is small relative to the number of medium-large establishments.

Genus Ctenocardia H. Adams & A. Adams, 1858
REMARKS
Before description of new taxa allied to the genus Ctenocardia can occur, a brief discussion concerning the genus and closely similar genera is necessary,as the genus Ctenocardia, like all Fraginae, has never been formally revised.Although the original description by H. Adams & A. Adams (1858) is brief, Ctenocardia was first recognized as distinct from other cardiids due to a heart-shaped form, an abruptly truncate anterior, a carinate beak and spinose ribs, this latter character being the main character differentiating the genus from other subfamily members. Much later, Habe (1951) described the genus Microfragum as having a small, flabelliform shell, with a more or less lobate posterior margin, not noticeably convex and without spikes on the radial ribs. This genus was erected in order to differentiate the type species, Cardium festivum Deshayes, 1855, from other members of the subfamily Fraginae.However, similarities among some members of Ctenocardia and Microfragum were evident and first recognized by Prashad (1932). Although Prashad (1932) did not include M. festivum in the subgenus Ctenocardia, the form and general facies of M. festivum were noted as similar to Cardium (Ctenocardia) fornicatum Sowerby, 1841. After examination of the type specimens of both genera by us, it is clear that these taxa share many shell features in common, yet are still distinct. The rib lamellae though similar to other members of Ctenocardia in being “mosaistracal” (sensu Vokes 1977) in nature, are distinct in being less spinose, thinner and more flattened and serried.Similarly, the somewhat quadrate and keeled gross shell shape,most pronounced in juvenile specimens of M. festivum, is reminiscent of other Ctenocardia members, but adult M. festivum are less keeled and more flabelliform (although see C. translatum (Prashad, 1932)) than Ctenocardia. Finally, the presence of a second posterior lateral on the right valve is present in Microfragum, but less pronounced and less blade-like than in other Ctenocardia species, where it forms a pocket with the anterior lateral.To formally recognize both these similarities and differences, we propose relegating Microfragum to a subgenus of Ctenocardia, with C. (M.) festivum and C. (M.) subfestivum n. sp. the only taxa presently allied to this subgenus. “ Microfragum ” erugatum (Tate, 1889) is not a member of this group and belongs in Fragum, as recognized by Vidal (2001), but in contrast with Schneider (1998a).“ Microfragum ” ebaranum (Yokoyama, 1927) belongs in the genus Afrocardium, and is a synonym of A. richardi (Audouin, 1827) (see Vidal 2000b).

description: SLE is a random growth process based on Loewner's equation with driving parameter a one-dimensional Brownian motion running with speed $κ$. This process is intimately connected with scaling limits of percolation clusters and with the outer boundary of Brownian motion, and is conjectured to correspond to scaling limits of several other discrete processes in two dimensions. The present paper attempts a first systematic study of SLE. It is proved that for all $κ\ne 8$ the SLE trace is a path; for $κ\in[0,4]$ it is a simple path; for $κ\in(4,8)$ it is a self-intersecting path; and for $κ>8$ it is space-filling. It is also shown that the Hausdorff dimension of the SLE trace is a.s. at most $1+κ/8$ and that the expected number of disks of size $\eps$ needed to cover it inside a bounded set is at least $\eps^{-(1+κ/8)+o(1)}$ for $κ\in[0,8)$ along some sequence $\eps\to 0$. Similarly, for $κ\ge 4$, the Hausdorff dimension of the outer boundary of the SLE hull is a.s. at most $1+2/κ$, and the expected number of disks of radius $\eps$ needed to cover it is at least $\eps^{-(1+2/κ)+o(1)}$ for a sequence $\eps\to 0$.

description: We report the discovery of 28 quasars and 7 luminous galaxies at 5.7 $\le$ z $\le$ 7.0. This is the tenth in a series of papers from the Subaru High-z Exploration of Low-Luminosity Quasars (SHELLQs) project, which exploits the deep multi-band imaging data produced by the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program survey. The total number of spectroscopically identified objects in SHELLQs has now grown to 93 high-z quasars, 31 high-z luminous galaxies, 16 [O III] emitters at z ~ 0.8, and 65 Galactic cool dwarfs (low-mass stars and brown dwarfs). These objects were found over 900 deg2, surveyed by HSC between 2014 March and 2018 January. The full quasar sample includes 18 objects with very strong and narrow Ly alpha emission, whose stacked spectrum is clearly different from that of other quasars or galaxies. While the stacked spectrum shows N V 1240 emission and resembles that of lower-z narrow-line quasars, the small Ly alpha width may suggest a significant contribution from the host galaxies. Thus these objects may be composites of quasars and star-forming galaxies.

description: This study provides a framework for describing the profiles of consumers who are more likely to use nutrition labels and to pay attention to serving-size information. Inan online survey, food consumers were asked about the importance of nutrition labels and how often they read the serving-size information. Results from ordered logit models indicate that overweight people think that nutrition labels are important but they are less likely to pay attention to serving-size information, which may explain the overweight problem. Based on various demographic characteristics, the findings also show that food consumers do not always link the importance of nutrition labels and the frequency of reading serving-size information.
