description: The neutron charge form factor GEn(Q**2) is investigated within a constituent quark model formulated on the light-front. It is shown that, if the quark initial motion is neglected in the Melosh rotations, the Dirac neutron form factor F1n(Q**2)$ receives a relativistic correction which cancels exactly against the Foldy term in GEn(Q**2), as it has been recently argued by Isgur. Moreover, at the same level of approximation the ratio of the proton to neutron magnetic form factors GMp(Q**2) / GMn(Q**2) is still given by the naive SU(6)-symmetry expectation, -3/2. However, it is also shown that the full Melosh rotations break SU(6) symmetry, giving rise to GEn(Q**2) =/ 0 and GMp(Q**2)/GMn(Q**2) =/ -3/2 even when a SU(6)-symmetric canonical wave function is assumed. It turns out that relativistic effects alone cannot explain simultaneously the experimental data on GEn(Q**2)$ and GMp(Q**2)/GMn(Q**2).

description: Studying the gravitational-wave sky with pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) is a key science goal for the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) and its pathfinder telescopes. With current PTAs reaching sub-microsecond timing precision, making accurate measurements of interstellar propagation effects and mitigating them effectively has become increasingly important to realise PTA goals. As these effects are much stronger at longer wavelengths, low-frequency observations are most appealing for characterizing the interstellar medium (ISM) along the sight lines toward PTA pulsars. The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) and the Engineering Development Array (EDA), which utilizes MWA technologies, present promising opportunities for undertaking such studies, particularly for PTA pulsars located in the southern sky. Such pulsars are also the prime targets for PTA efforts planned with the South African MeerKAT, and eventually with the SKA. In this paper we report on observations of two bright southern millisecond pulsars PSRs J0437-4715 and J2145-0750 made with these facilities; MWA observations sampling multiple frequencies across the 80-250 MHz frequency range, while the EDA providing direct-sampled baseband data to yield a large instantaneous usable bandwidth of $\sim$200 MHz. Using these observations, we investigate various aspects relating to pulsar emission and ISM properties, such as spectral evolution of the mean pulse shape, scintillation as a function of frequency, chromaticity in interstellar dispersion, and flux density spectra at low frequencies. Systematic and regular monitoring observations will help ascertain the role of low-frequency measurements in PTA experiments, while simultaneously providing a detailed characterization of the ISM toward the pulsars, which will be useful in devising optimal observing strategies for future PTA experiments.

Spinodal instabilities inevitably present in such systems yield a very attractive mechanism for arriving at the required equation of state at late times, while satisfying all the known constraints on models of quintessence.

Distributive Politics and Electoral Incentives: Evidence from Seven US State Legislatures

description: We study the effect of electoral incentives on the allocation of public services across legislative districts. We develop a model in which elections encourage individual legislators to cater to parochial interests and thus aggravate the common pool problem. Using unique data from seven US states, we study how the amount of funding that a legislator channels to his district changes when he faces a term limit. We fi nd that legislators bring less state funds to their district when they cannot run for re-election. Consistent with the Law of 1/N, this tendency is less pronounced in states with many legislative districts.
Controller Verification and Design with Logical Analysis Support

description: Modern computer-controlled systems deployed for safety-critical applications
are growing increasingly large and complex. Industry professionals submit their
designs to rigorous testing procedures to detect possible errors and re-design the
system as necessary. Nonetheless, design errors can go undetected and appear in the
final product. In safety-critical systems, these errors may cause severe financial and
even human losses. As a result, the modern engineering development process needs
to address safety specifications as well as performance specifications.
This dissertation proposes the use of control envelopes, which are abstractions
on the input-output relation of a controller. Control envelopes can be used to verify
safety of proposed controllers. Since the control envelope does not depend on
any specific controller implementation, it can be reused throughout the system development
cycle. As a result, safety specifications can be checked with the control
envelope by a static check on the input-output of the controller. Second, control
envelopes constitute a reusable specification. Initial effort devoted to computing a
good control pays for itself throughout the rest of the development process in terms
of flexibility and reusability.
We describe a tool called Perseus to automatically check when a controller satisfies
a control envelope. We illustrate our approach on control design case studies for
autonomous driving scenarios intended to reduce accidents at traffic intersections.
Our case studies make use of the theorem prover KeYmaera to verify plants controlled
by control envelopes. KeYmaera uses a powerful representation language
called differential dynamic logic, which supports symbolic parameters and can handle
nonlinear dynamics without resorting to approximation techniques that incur errors.
However, KeYmaera (and theorem proving approaches in general) suffer from
a lack of automation, and often require specialized knowledge to operate. We propose
the addition of a forward invariant cut proof rule to KeYmaera’s reasoning
calculus, which allows one to leverage designer insights into proofs of safety of a
closed-loop system. We describe the tool Manticore, which aids the search for forward
invariants. We illustrate our approach on a case study of a benchmark fuel
control system.

description: The international business cycle is very important for Latin America's economic performance as the recent global crisis vividly illustrated. This paper investigates how changes in trade linkages between China, Latin America, and the rest of the world have altered the transmission mechanism of international business cycles to Latin America. Evidence based on a Global Vector Autoregressive (GVAR) model for 5 large Latin American economies and all major advanced and emerging economies of the world shows that the long-term impact of a China GDP shock on the typical Latin American economy has increased by three times since mid-1990s. At the same time, the long-term impact of a US GDP shock has halved, while the transmission of shocks to Latin America and the rest of emerging Asia (excluding China and India) GDP has not undergone any significant change. Contrary to common wisdom, we find that these changes owe more to the changed impact of China on Latin America's traditional and largest trading partners than to increased direct bilateral trade linkages boosted by the decade-long commodity price boom. These findings help to explain why Latin America did so well during the global crisis, but point to the risks associated with a deceleration in China's economic growth in the future for both Latin America and the rest of the world economy. The evidence reported also suggests that the emergence of China as an important source of world growth might be the driver of the so called "decoupling" of emerging markets business cycle from that of advanced economies reported in the existing literature.

description: Characteristic examples are presented of scenarios of particle production and decay in supersymmetry models in which the supersymmetry breaking is transmitted to the observable world via gauge interactions. The cases are chosen to illustrate the main classes of LHC phenomenology that can arise in these models. A new technique is illustrated that allows the full reconstruction of supersymmetry events despite the presence of two unobserved particles. This technique enables superparticle masses to be measured directly rather than being inferred from kinematic distributions. It is demonstrated that the LHC is capable of making sufficient measurements so as to severely over-constrain the model and determine the parameters with great precision

description: Latin America has recently experienced three cycles of capital inflows, the first two ending in major financial crises. The first took place between 1973 and the 1982 'debt-crisis'. The second took place between the 1989 'Brady bonds' agreement (and the beginning of the economic reforms and financial liberalisation that followed) and the Argentinian 2001/2002 crisis, and ended up with four major crises (as well as the 1997 one in East Asia); Mexico (1994), Brazil (1999), and two in Argentina (1995 and 2001/2). Finally, the third inflow-cycle began in 2003 as soon as international financial markets felt reassured by the surprisingly neo-liberal orientation of President Lula's government; this cycle intensified in 2004 with the beginning of a (purely speculative) commodity price-boom, and actually strengthened after a brief interlude following the 2008 global financial crash; and at the time of writing (mid-2011) this cycle is still unfolding, although already showing considerable signs of distress. The main aim of this paper is to analyse the financial crises resulting from this second cycle (both in LA and in East Asia) from the perspective of Keynesian/ Minskyian/Kindlebergian financial economics. I will attempt to show that no matter how diversely these newly financially liberalised Developing Countries tried to deal with the absorption problem created by the subsequent surges of inflow (and they did follow different routes), they invariably ended up in a major crisis. As a result (and despite the insistence of mainstream analysis), these financial crises took place mostly due to factors that were intrinsic (or inherent) to the workings of over-liquid and under-regulated financial markets; and as such, they were both fully deserved and fairly predictable. Furthermore, these crises point not just to major market failures, but to a systemic market failure: evidence suggests that these crises were the spontaneous outcome of actions by utility-maximising agents, freely operating in friendly (light-touched) regulated, over-liquid financial markets. That is, these crises are clear examples that financial markets can be driven by buyers who take little notice of underlying values; investors have incentives to interpret information in a biased fashion in a systematic way. 'Fat tails' also occurred because under these circumstances there is a high likelihood of self-made disastrous events. In other words, markets are not always right; indeed, in the case of financial markets they can be seriously wrong as a whole. Also, as the recent collapse of 'MF Global' indicates, the capacity of 'utility-maximising' agents operating in unregulated and over-liquid financial market to learn from previous mistakes seems rather limited.

Classification and characterization of quantum parametric models in quantum estimation theory

description: In this paper, we characterize quantum parametric models into different classes based on the estimation error bound, known as the Holevo bound. These classes are given by the classical, quasi-classical, D-invariant, and asymptotically classical models. We first explore the relationships among these four models and show that: i) The classical model having the diagonal elements only is characterized by the intersection of the D-invariant and asymptotically classical models. ii) There exists a gap between the classical model and the quasi-classical model, where all logarithmic derivative operators commute with each other. Further, we characterize each class with several equivalent conditions. This result then reveals the geometrical understanding of quantum statistical models.

description: New SAPHIR p(gamma,K+)Lambda total cross section data show a resonance structure at a total c.m. energy around 1900 MeV. We investigate this feature with an isobar model and find that the structure can be well explained by including a new D_{13} resonance at 1895 MeV. Such a state has been predicted by a relativistic quark model at 1960 MeV with significant gamma-N and K-Lambda branching ratios. We demonstrate how the measurement of the photon asymmetry can be used to further study this resonance. In addition, verification of the predicted large decay widths into the eta-N and eta'-N channels would allow distinguishing between other nearby D_{13} states.

description: We study the interplay between an isostructural critical point and dislocation mediated two-dimensional melting, using a combination of Landau and continuum elasticity theory. If dislocations are excluded, coupling to the elastic degrees of freedom leads to mean field critical exponents. When dislocations are allowed, modified elastic constants lead to a new phase buried in the solid state near the critical point. Consistent with a proposal of Bladon and Frenkel, we find an intervening hexatic phase near the critical point of the first-order isostructural transition line. Very close to the critical point, a transition from the hexatic phase to a modulated bond angle state is possible. Ising transitions in symmetrically confined two dimensional colloidal crystals with attractive wall potentials require a different model free energy, which we also discuss.

description: Pion and kaon correlations in relativistic nuclear collisions are studied in the framework of boost-invariant, cylindrically symmetric hydrodynamics. It is investigated how the inverse widths of the two-particle correlation functions in out- and side-direction depend on the average transverse momentum of the particle pair, the initial energy density, and the equation of state of the system. The QCD transition leads to a time delay in the expansion of the system and consequently to an enhancement of the ratio of inverse widths in out- and side-direction. This time-delay signal is found to be particularly strong for large average transverse momenta of order 1 GeV and initial energy densities accessible at RHIC. Neutral kaon pair correlation functions, which are not influenced by final state Coulomb effects and less contaminated by resonance decays than pion correlation functions, seem to be the ideal tool to detect this collective time-delay signature of the QCD transition.

description: The fluctuation spectrum of membranes in nematic solvents is altered by the boundary condition imposed on the bulk nematic director by the curved membrane. We discuss some properties of single and multi-membrane systems in nematic solvents, primarily based on the Berreman-de~Gennes model. We show that: membranes in nematic solvents are more rigid and less rough than in their isotropic counterparts; have a different Helfrich steric stabilization energy, proportional to $d^{-3}$, and hence a different compression modulus in the lamellar state; and can exhibit phase separation via unbinding during a quench into the nematic state. We also discuss the preparation and possible experimental effects of nematic-mediated surfactant membrane system.

description: Solid-state single-photon emitters are attractive for realization of integrated quantum systems due to their experimental convenience and scalability. Unfortunately, however, their complex mesoscopic environments cause photons from different emitters to be spectrally distinguishable. Here we demonstrate spectral alignment of two solid-state single-photon emitters by utilizing the strain gradient. Multiple germanium vacancy (GeV) color centers in diamond are created in fabricated diamond microcantilevers using focused ion beam implantation. The strain response of the electronic energy levels of the GeV is measured by inducing an electrically controlled strain in the device. Leveraging the large strain gradient, we tune two GeVs in the spot to emit at the same optical wavelength. Simultaneous resonant excitation of two spectrally aligned GeVs is demonstrated using a narrow linewidth laser. This strain gradient tuning can be used to realize spectrally identical quantum emitters for on-chip integrated quantum systems.

description: Classification of remotely sensed images into land cover or land use is highly dependent on geographical information at least at two levels. First, land cover classes are observed in a spatially smooth domain separated by sharp region boundaries. Second, land classes and observation scale are also tightly intertwined: they tend to be consistent within areas of homogeneous appearance, or regions, in the sense that all pixels within a roof should be classified as roof, independently on the spatial support used for the classification. In this paper, we follow these two observations and encode them as priors in an energy minimization framework based on conditional random fields (CRFs), where classification results obtained at pixel and region levels are probabilistically fused. The aim is to enforce the final maps to be consistent not only in their own spatial supports (pixel and region) but also across supports, i.e., by getting the predictions on the pixel lattice and on the set of regions to agree. To this end, we define an energy function with three terms: 1) a data term for the individual elements in each support (support-specific nodes); 2) spatial regularization terms in a neighborhood for each of the supports (support-specific edges); and 3) a regularization term between individual pixels and the region containing each of them (intersupports edges). We utilize these priors in a unified energy minimization problem that can be optimized by standard solvers. The proposed 2LCRF model consists of a CRF defined over a bipartite graph, i.e., two interconnected layers within a single graph accounting for interlattice connections.

No entanto, no presente tratar-se-á apenas dos subjetivos, os quais têm papel fundamental no momento da prolação das decisões judiciais, eis que diretamente atrelados à definição do valor da compensação por dano moral a ser fixada. Primeiramente, tem-se o transtorno vivenciado pelo ofendido, a extrapolação do limite da normalidade e a barreira do mero aborrecimento, tornando-se imperioso, portanto, discernir o que é o mero aborrecimento, de quando, efetivamente, ocorre o rompimento do limite da normalidade, ensejador de uma lesão moral passível de compensação. Em relação ao papel da reparação pecuniária, buscar-se-á identificar os métodos da sua adequada quantificação, visando trazer novas luzes para o sistema jurídico, com vistas a determinar a reparação de modo proporcional à intensidade da dor, todavia, e este é o diferencial, a partir da mensuração prévia da intensidade da dor do ofendido. Não obstante, buscar-se-á realizar ainda, uma análise correlacionada ao sentido punitivo da indenização, ou seja, o que se busca com a punição. E além disso, sob o prisma do seu caráter pedagógico, como se determinar um quantum suficiente para evitar a reincidência. E por fim, no que tange ao arbitrium boni viri do magistrado, tem-se em vista compreender os critérios e princípios basilares que nortearão o magistrado na decisão mais justa, em atenção aos princípios da equidade, razoabilidade e proporcionalidade, que igualmente serão objeto de análise.

O mesmo tempo por escopo estudar o processo de tomada de decisão de consumidores em um cenário específico de crise, qual seja, o já citado desabastecimento. Com efeito, as intermináveis filas em postos de gasolina que inclusive levaram diversas pessoas a dormir por mais de um dia dentro de seus automóveis, tudo com o intuito de conseguir um pouco de combustível, serviram a mostrar que, quando o assunto é a tomada de decisão dos consumidores em um cenário de crise, esta é não racional, estando calcada em elementos essencialmente emocionais, como por exemplo o medo. Estas decisões emocionais, logo, não raciocinadas, e potencializadas por emoções como pavor, medo, angustia e outros, tem o condão de causar distorções cognitivas que se refletirão no agir impensado, irrefletido e compulsivo. No caso do desabastecimento de combustíveis, observou-se um claro efeito manada de pessoas que, mesmo sem precisar abastecer seus automóveis, correram desesperadas aos postos de gasolina, causando, além de tumulto, filas e brigas, o completo esgotamento dos combustíveis em menos de 24 horas. Contribuíram decisivamente para a ocorrência destes problemas, a mídia impressa e televisionada que, no tratamento jornalístico da crise, adotou um teor pessimista, ameaçador e amedrontador de um cenário pacífico a curto e médio prazo. Também ajudou no agravamento da questão o fato de não ter havido, por parte de postos de gasolina, qualquer critério de controle ou filtro na hora do abastecimento; inclusive, várias pessoas a pé formaram filas enormes portando galões não mão, apenas para fazer estoque de combustível, algo que é, inclusive, vedado pela legislação brasileira. Desta forma, muitas pessoas que realmente necessitavam do combustível, porque seus automóveis estavam muito próximo da “reserva” ou de ficar sem ter como rodar, ficaram obliteradas de abastecer seus veículos. A título de exemplo, importante citar episódios onde diversas ambulâncias, viaturas de polícia e automóveis de serviços essenciais ficaram parados, sem prestar serviços à população Com a falta de combustíveis, um importante efeito reflexo começou a ser sentido: diversas empresas, faculdades, escolas e organizações foram obrigadas a encerrar ou suspender suas atividades temporariamente, ampliando o cenário de crise e contribuindo para o caos e insegurança que, a esta altura, já se encontravam instalados em todo o território nacional.

description: In Mexico, 25 per cent of the urban population now lives in informal settlements with varying degree of depravity. Although some informal neighbourhoods have contributed to the upward mobility of the inhabitants, the majority still lack basic services. Mexico City and the conurbation around it, form a mega city of 21 million people that has been growing in a manner qualified as "highly unproductive, (that) deepens inequality, raises pollution levels" and contains the largest slum in the world, Neza-Chalco-Izta. Urban reforms are now aiming to better the conditions in these slums and therefore it is very important to have reliable measurement tools to assess the changes that are undergoing. In this paper, we use exploratory factor analysis to define an index of depravity in Mexico City, namely the Slum Severity Index (SSI), based on the UN-HABITATs definition of a slum. We apply this novel approach to the Census survey of Mexico and measure the housing deprivation levels types from 1990 - 2010. The analysis highlights high variability in housing conditions within Mexico City. We find that the SSI decreased significantly between 1990 - 2000 due to several policy reforms, but increased between 2000 - 2010. We also show correlations of the SSI with other social factors such as education, health and migration. We present a validation of the SSI using Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) features extracted from Very-High Resolution (VHR) remote-sensed satellite images. Finally, we show that the SSI can present a cardinally meaningful assessment of the extent of the difference in depravity as compared to a similar index defined by CONEVAL, a government institution that studies poverty in Mexico.

description: The relativistic structure of the self-energy of a nucleon in nuclear matter is investigated including the imaginary and real components which arise from the terms of first and second order in the NN interaction. A parameterized form of Brueckner $G$ matrix is used for the NN interaction. The effects of the terms beyond the DBHF approximation on quasiparticle energies and the optical potential for nucleon-nucleus scattering are discussed.

description: Each dataset is identified by a strain name and condition, e.g. AML32_moving, and is wrapped in a .tar.gz archive. After extracting an archive, you will find subfolders corresponding to individual recordings. Additionally, a text file, e.g. AML32_moving_datasets.txt, indicates which datasets should be used for analysis. For recordings of the AML310 strain, these files also contain the volume number at which the BFP laser was turned on to identify AVA. The part of the recording after this volume number is excluded for behavior analysis. Within each dataset folder, there are five files: * centerline.mat * heatData.mat * heatDataMS.mat * pointStatsNew.mat * positionDataMS.mat These are the output of the neuron registration pipeline described in https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005517.

description: Economists draw important lessons for modern development from the medieval Maghribi traders who, according to Greif, enforced contracts multilaterally through a closed, private-order ‘coalition’. We show that this view is untenable. The Maghribis used formal legal mechanisms and entered business associations with non-Maghribis. Not a single empirical example adduced by Greif shows that any ‘coalition’ actually existed. The Maghribis cannot be used to argue that the social capital of exclusive networks will facilitate exchange in developing economies. Nor do they provide any support for the cultural theories of economic development and institutional change for which they have been mobilised.

description: We investigate the relation between the invariant correlators of random matrix theory and correlators of the integrable one-dimensional systems. Starting from the relation between correlators for the coupling strengths $λ=1/ 2$, $1$, and $2$, we explore the local current-density mapping applicable to arbitrary $λ$ including {\em irrational\/} values, which results from the novel structure of the Calogero-Sutherland model. We find an interesting and novel relationship between equal time current and density correlations for any coupling, which exist {\em in addition} to the usual Ward Identities for this class of systems.

Beta Functions of Orbifold Theories and the Hierarchy Problem

description: We examine a class of gauge theories obtained by projecting out certain fields from an N=4 supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory. These theories are non-supersymmetric and in the large N limit are known to be conformal. Recently it was proposed that the hierarchy problem could be solved by embedding the standard model in a theory of this kind with finite N. In order to check this claim one must find the conformal points of the theory. To do this we calculate the one-loop beta functions for the Yukawa and quartic scalar couplings. We find that with the beta functions set to zero the one-loop quadratic divergences are not canceled at sub-leading order in N; thus the hierarchy between the weak scale and the Planck scale is not stabilized unless N is of the order 10^28 or larger. We also find that at sub-leading orders in N renormalization induces new interactions, which were not present in the original Lagrangian.

description: In most supersymmetric theories, charginos $\tildeχ^\pm_{1,2}$, mixtures of charged color-neutral gauginos and higgsinos, belong to the class of the lightest supersymmetric particles. They are easy to observe at $e^+e^-$ colliders. By measuring the total cross sections and the left-right asymmetries with polarized electron beams in $e^+e^-\to\tildeχ_i^-\tildeχ_j^+ [i,j=1,2]$, the chargino masses and the gaugino-higgsino mixing angles can be determined. From these observables the fundamental SUSY parameters can be derived: the SU(2) gaugino mass $M_2$, the modulus $|μ|$ and $\cos Φ_μ$ of the higgsino mass parameter, and $\tanβ= v_2/v_1$, the ratio of the vacuum expectation values of the two neutral Higgs doublet fields. The solutions are unique; the CP-violating phase $Φ_μ$ can be determined uniquely by analyzing effects due to the normal polarization of the charginos.

description: O objetivo do presente resumo expandido é refletir como as decisões judiciais nos contratos de seguro podem alterar a oferta de serviços securitários e formação dos prêmios, gerando os chamados custos de transação, para os demais integrantes do grupo que são usuários desse tipo de contrato e que não figuraram na demanda judicial. O tema é relevante, porque o Poder Judiciário, vinculado às regras, define quais serão aplicadas, quando podem ou não ser violadas, abrindo exceções para a sua quebra por determinados agentes, e criando incentivos tanto positivos quanto negativos, às pessoas seguirem ou não as determinações desse jogo, inclusive com relação aos contratos[1].

description: Dimethylammonium zinc formate (DMAZnF) is the precursor for a large family of multiferroics, materials which display co-existing magnetic and dielectric ordering. However, the mechanism underlying these orderings remains unclear. While it is generally believed that the dielectric transition is related to the freezing of the order-disorder dynamics of the dimethylammonium (DMA+) cation, no quantitative data on this motion are available. We surmise that this is due to the fact that the timescale of this cationic motion is on the borderline of the timescales of experimental techniques used in earlier reports. Using multifrequency EPR, we find that the timescale of this motion is ~ 5 x 10 -9 s. Thus, S-band (4 GHz) EPR spectroscopy is presented as the technique of choice for studying these motional dynamics. This work highlights the value of the lower-frequency end of EPR spectroscopy. The data are interpreted using DFT calculations and provide direct evidence for the motional freezing model of the ferroelectric transition in these metal-organic frameworks with the ABX3 perovskite-like architecture.
