description: Η εργασία επικεντρώνεται στη μελέτη του κοινωνικοπολιτικού ρόλου των Δημοσιογράφων όπως παρουσιάζεται κριτικά στα έργα της έβδομης τέχνης. Στόχος της είναι να προβληθεί το δημοσιογραφικό επάγγελμα που αποτελεί ακρογωνιαίο λίθο της Δημοκρατίας, να στηλιτευθεί η κακή δημοσιογραφία και να αναδειχθεί ο ρόλος του δημιουργού των κινηματογραφικών έργων ως ενός άλλου φύλακα της Δημοκρατίας καθώς ασκεί με το έργο του κριτική στην τέταρτη εξουσία που ελέγχει με τη σειρά της τη νομοθετική, την εκτελεστική και τη δικαστική. Γι΄ αυτό το λόγο επιλέχτηκαν ταινίες από διαφορετικούς χώρους και εποχές, με πρωταγωνιστές άντρες και γυναίκες δημοσιογράφους που είδαν το επάγγελμά τους ως λειτούργημα αλλά και δημοσιογράφους που βρήκαν μέσω του επαγγέλματός τους την ευκαιρία για πλουτισμό και δόξα χρησιμοποιώντας ποταπά μέσα και αδιαφορώντας για τις επιπτώσεις του έργου τους στο κοινωνικό σύνολο. Για την έρευνα χρησιμοποιήθηκαν ως μέθοδοι η Ανάλυση Περιεχομένου και η Σημειωτική Προσέγγιση με σκοπό τη διερεύνηση του προφανούς και του βαθύτερου νοήματος των ταινιών.
description: The present assignment focuses on the study of the socio-political role of Journalists as it is critically presented in the seventh art. Its aim is to promote the journalistic profession which is a cornerstone of Democracy, to castigate bad journalism and to highlight the role of the film creator as another guardian of Democracy, as with their work, they criticize the fourth power which in turn controls the legislative, executive and judicial power. For this reason, films from different places and eras were selected, where male and female journalists star. A part of them saw their profession as a vocation while others found through their profession the opportunity for enrichment and fame using vile means and ignoring the consequences of their work for society. The Content Analysis and the Semiotic Approach were used as methods to investigate the apparent and deeper meaning of the films.

description: Networks exhibiting "accelerating" growth have total link numbers growing faster than linearly with network size and can exhibit transitions from stationary to nonstationary statistics and from random to scale-free to regular statistics at particular critical network sizes. However, if for any reason the network cannot tolerate such gross structural changes then accelerating networks are constrained to have sizes below some critical value. This is of interest as the regulatory gene networks of single celled prokaryotes are characterized by an accelerating quadratic growth and are size constrained to be less than about 10,000 genes encoded in DNA sequence of less than about 10 megabases. This paper presents a probabilistic accelerating network model for prokaryotic gene regulation which closely matches observed statistics by employing two classes of network nodes (regulatory and non-regulatory) and directed links whose inbound heads are exponentially distributed over all nodes and whose outbound tails are preferentially attached to regulatory nodes and described by a scale free distribution. This model explains the observed quadratic growth in regulator number with gene number and predicts an upper prokaryote size limit closely approximating the observed value.

description: We analyze the influence of an impurity in the evolution of moving discrete breathers in a Klein--Gordon chain with non-weak nonlinearity. Three different behaviours can be observed when moving breathers interact with the impurity: they pass through the impurity continuing their direction of movement; they are reflected by the impurity; they are trapped by the impurity, giving rise to chaotic breathers. Resonance with a breather centred at the impurity site is conjectured to be a necessary condition for the appearance of the trapping phenomenon.

description: Herein, we demonstrate that BiCuSeO compound can be formed in bulk directly from the raw materials through reactive spark plasma sintering (RSPS) followed by ball milling and a second short spark plasma sintering step. Compared to BiCuSeO samples obtained by a conventional solid-state reaction, the electrical transport properties of the RSPS bulk were moderately affected by the sintering technique, while the lattice thermal conductivity was almost unaffected, and the figure of merit zT attained a value at 773 K comparable to state-of-the-art BiCuSeO. The results indicate a new scalable method for the preparation of oxyselenides.

description: Pure Yang-Mills theory has a finite-temperature phase transition, separating the confined and deconfined bulk phases. Svetitsky and Yaffe conjectured that if this phase transition is of second order, it belongs to the universality class of transitions for particular scalar field theories in one lower dimension. We examine Yang-Mills theory with the symplectic gauge groups Sp(N). We find new evidence supporting the Svetitsky-Yaffe conjecture and make our own conjecture as to which gauge theories have a universal second order deconfinement phase transition.

description: We present Chandra observations of 2106 radio-quiet quasars in the redshift range 1.799.99% level) between $α_{ox}$ and these emission-line parameters, as well as between $Δα_{ox}$ and CIV EW. Slight correlations are found between $Δα_{ox}$ and CIV blueshift, MgII EW, and the CIV EW to MgII EW ratio. The best-fit trend in each parameter space is used to compare the X-ray weakness ($Δα_{ox}$) and optical/UV emission properties of typical quasars and weak-line quasars (WLQs). The WLQs typically exhibit weaker X-ray emission than predicted by the typical quasar relationships. The best-fit relationships for our typical quasars are consistent with predictions from the disk-wind quasar model. The behavior of the WLQs compared to our typical quasars can be explained by an X-ray "shielding" model.

description: In the present work we investigate the behavior of a vortex in a long superconducting cylinder near to a columnar defect at the center. The derivations of the local magnetic field distribution and the Gibbs free energy will be carried out for a cylinder and a cavity of arbitrary sizes. From the general expressions, it considered two particular limits: one in which the radius of the cavity is very small but the radius of the superconducting cylinder is kept finite; and one in which the radius of the superconducting cylinder is taken very large (infinite) but the radius of the cavity is kept finite. In both cases the maximum number of vortices which are allowed in the cavity is determined. In addition, the surface barrier field for flux entrance into the cavity is calculated.

description: Excerpts from the report: This report presents an analysis of the market organization and structure for "surplus" milk in the south central area of the United States. This "surplus" is milk which qualifies for, but is excess to, sales of Class I, or fluid, milk under the Federal milk marketing orders. At the time of the study, these markets were Kansas City and Neosho Valley, in Kansas and Missouri j Topeka and Wichita, in Kansas; and Oklahoma City and Tulsa-Muskogee, in Oklahoma. The facilities available for processing milk into nonfluid products reflect the accumulated past decisions of processors. The extent to which such facilities are currently used, on the other hand, measures the nature of the handlers’ responses to current prices for milk and the market for nonfluid products. This study was made to determine these past and current factors, as well as other pertinent information such as procurement and disposition practices. A knowledge of these components, combined with findings in other phases of this overall project, will provide a better understanding of the problems involved in improving the pricing and marketing of milk in this area.

description: Purpose: Sub-acute recovery-oriented facilities offer short-term residential support for people living with mental illness. They are generally highly regarded by consumers, with emerging evidence indicating that these services may support recovery. The aim of the current study was to explore the relationship between personal recovery and consumers’ satisfaction with sub-acute residential services, and consumers’ views about service features that aid recovery. Methods: Consumers at 19 adult Prevention and Recovery Care Services in Victoria, Australia, were invited to complete measures containing sociodemographic information and measures on personal recovery and wellbeing. After going home, participants were invited to complete measures on service satisfaction and experience. Results: Total and intrapersonal scores on the personal recovery measure increased significantly between Time 1 and Time 2, indicating marked improvement. Personal recovery and satisfaction measures were moderately to strongly correlated. Thematically analysed open-ended responses revealed themes of feeling connected, finding meaning and purpose, and self-empowerment as important aspects of these services, with some recommendations for improvements. Conclusion: Sub-acute residential mental health care may support individuals’ personal recovery; consumer satisfaction indicates these services also offer an acceptable and supportive environment for the provision of recovery-oriented care. Further exploring consumers’ experiences of sub-acute residential services is essential to understand their effectiveness, opportunities for improvement and intended impacts on personal recovery.

COMMENTS: The holotype is the only Legge specimen of this form that came to AMNH with the Rothschild collection. As noted by Vaurie (1949b: 247), it is immature and was marked ‘‘juv ♂’’ by Legge. Two other AMNH specimens that are undated are not considered paratypes. However, inclusive measurements were given by Stuart Baker for minimus, and such specimens in other institutions measured by him would be paratypes.

description: Magnetic proximity effects are crucial ingredients for engineering spintronic, superconducting, and topological phenomena in heterostructures. Such effects are highly sensitive to the interfacial electronic properties, such as electron wave function overlap and band alignment. The recent emergence of van der Waals (vdW) magnets enables the possibility of tuning proximity effects via designing heterostructures with atomically clean interfaces. In particular, atomically thin CrI3 exhibits layered antiferromagnetism, where adjacent ferromagnetic monolayers are antiferromagnetically coupled. Exploiting this magnetic structure, we uncovered a layer-resolved magnetic proximity effect in heterostructures formed by monolayer WSe2 and bi/trilayer CrI3. By controlling the individual layer magnetization in CrI3 with a magnetic field, we found that the spin-dependent charge transfer between WSe2 and CrI3 is dominated by the interfacial CrI3 layer, while the proximity exchange field is highly sensitive to the layered magnetic structure as a whole. These properties enabled us to use monolayer WSe2 as a spatially sensitive magnetic sensor to map out layered antiferromagnetic domain structures at zero magnetic field as well as antiferromagnetic/ferromagnetic domains near the spin-flip transition in bilayer CrI3. Our work reveals a new way to control proximity effects and probe interfacial magnetic order via vdW engineering.

description: In many cases a nonlinear scalar field with potential $V$ can lead to accelerated expansion in cosmological models. This paper contains mathematical results on this subject for homogeneous spacetimes. It is shown that, under the assumption that $V$ has a strictly positive minimum, Wald's theorem on spacetimes with positive cosmological constant can be generalized to a wide class of potentials. In some cases detailed information on late-time asymptotics is obtained. Results on the behaviour in the past time direction are also presented.

HOLOTYPE: AMNH 672024, adult female, collected at Rungarum (as on label), 5700 ft, Darjeeling, India, on 25 April 1900, by C.T. Bingham. From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: In the original description, Stuart Baker designated as type of stevensi a female specimen in the Rothschild Collection collected on 25 April 1900 in Darjeeling by Bingham. He did not enumerate his paratypes. Vaurie (1949b: 249) discussed this form at length and concluded that the type was intermediate between his beavani and Stuart Baker’s hopwoodi and arbitrarily decided to synonymize it with hopwoodi. Vaurie’s beavani is now considered a synonym of longicaudatus (see Dicrurus leucophaeus beavani above).
This name is sometimes spelled steveni, but it was spelled stevensi in the original description and was named for Herbert Stevens.

description: Efforts are underway to study ways via which the power of deep neural networks can be extended to non-standard data types such as structured data (e.g., graphs) or manifold-valued data (e.g., unit vectors or special matrices). Often, sizable empirical improvements are possible when the geometry of such data spaces are incorporated into the design of the model, architecture, and the algorithms. Motivated by neuroimaging applications, we study formulations where the data are {\em sequential manifold-valued measurements}. This case is common in brain imaging, where the samples correspond to symmetric positive definite matrices or orientation distribution functions. Instead of a recurrent model which poses computational/technical issues, and inspired by recent results showing the viability of dilated convolutional models for sequence prediction, we develop a dilated convolutional neural network architecture for this task. On the technical side, we show how the modules needed in our network can be derived while explicitly taking the Riemannian manifold structure into account. We show how the operations needed can leverage known results for calculating the weighted Fréchet Mean (wFM). Finally, we present scientific results for group difference analysis in Alzheimer's disease (AD) where the groups are derived using AD pathology load: here the model finds several brain fiber bundles that are related to AD even when the subjects are all still cognitively healthy.

description: Purpose: Medication non-adherence is a well-recognised problem in cancer care, negatively impacting health outcomes and healthcare resources. Patient-related factors influencing medication adherence (MA) are complicated and interrelated. There is a need for qualitative research to better understand their underlying interaction processes and patients’ needs to facilitate the development of effective patient-tailored complex interventions. This study aimed to explore experiences, perceptions, and needs relating to MA and side effect management of patients who are self-administering anti-cancer treatment. Methods: Semi-structured audio-recorded interviews with patients who have haematological cancer were conducted. A comparative, iterative, and predominantly inductive thematic analysis approach was employed. Results: Twenty-five patients from a specialist cancer hospital were interviewed. While self-administering cancer medications at home, patients’ motivation to adhere was affected by cancer-related physical reactions, fears, cancer literacy and beliefs, and healthcare professional (HCP) and informal support. Patients desired need for regular follow-ups from respectful, encouraging, informative, responsive, and consistent HCPs as part of routine care. Motivated patients can develop high adherence and side effect self-management over time, especially when being supported by HCPs and informal networks. Conclusion: Patients with cancer need varied support to medically adhere to and manage side effects at home. HCPs should adapt their practices to meet the patients’ expectations to further support them during treatment. We propose a multi-dimensional and technology- and theory-based intervention, which incorporates regular HCP consultations providing tailored education and support to facilitate and maintain patient MA and side effect self-management.

description: Magnet-superconductor hybrid (MSH) structures represent one of the most promising platforms to realize, control and manipulate Majorana modes using scanning tunneling methods. By depositing either chains or islands of magnetic atoms on the surface of a conventional, elemental superconductor such as Pb or Re, topological superconducting phases can emerge. They feature either localised Majorana bound states at the chain ends or dispersing chiral Majorana modes at the island's boundary. Yet some of these experiments have not reached the spectral resolution to clearly distinguish between topological Majorana and trivial Shiba states due to very small superconducting gap sizes and experiments performed at sub-Kelvin temperatures. Here we consider superconducting substrates with unconventional spin-singlet pairing, including high-temperature d-wave and extended s-wave superconductors. We derive topological phase diagrams and compute edge states for cylinder and island geometries and discuss their properties. Several time-reversal invariant topological superconducting phases of the Zhang-Kane-Mele type are found and discussed. Moreover, we study one-dimensional MSH structures and show that parameters to realize topologically non-trivial magnetic chains embedded into a larger, two-dimensional substrate differ from the purely one-dimensional case. Quite generally we find that unconventional superconducting substrates work as well as the conventional s-wave substrates to realize topological phases. In particular, iron-based pnictide and chalcogenide superconductors are the most promising class of substrates for future high-temperature MSH systems.

description: The current master thesis is a study of quantum entropies in finite quantum systems. Specifically, we use examples of experimentally produced quantum states, to emphasize properties of the various quantum entropies while demonstrating analytic calculations and programming techniques. We start by establishing some important aspects of the spectral theorem. We discuss the modern literature regarding different definitions of entropies, focusing on von Neumann, Renyi and Tsallis entropies, quantum conditional entropies and the quantum relative entropy. Furthermore, we rewrite heuristic forms of the known definitions that have a clear algorithmic interpretation, thus simplifying the programmability of each entropy. Finally, we exploit the described techniques and emphasize properties of quantum entropies in classes of quantum systems such as pure states, mixed states, Werner states and entangled states.

title: Three Essays in Financial Economics

Subjects: subject: 330 Economics

description: This thesis consists of three chapters on financial economics.
The first chapter discusses anomalies in the US Treasury market, with a particular focus on the on-the-run premium. I explain this anomaly using a model in which primary dealers hold inventories of Treasuries. Because there is less inventory uncertainty for on-the-run Treasuries, they fail to settle less frequently, which I also observe in the data. They are preferred and trade at a premium. I use the model to analyse the effects of granting access to central bank facilities to non-banks active in the Treasury market.
The second chapter, co-authored with Ragnar Juelsrud, Plamen Nenov and Olav Syrstad, takes a broader macroeconomic view. It focuses on safe assets in general and not "just" on US government bonds. We examine the drivers of the cross-section of convenience yields. We identify an equilibrium object, which we call the "price of convenience", that measures the degree of liquidity risk sharing in the economy. Changes in the supply or transaction cost of a single safe asset affect aggregate liquidity and the returns on all assets through this price of convenience. As in the first chapter, we use data from the US Treasury market to test our theoretical predictions.
The third and final chapter is motivated by the rise of decentralised finance. It analyses how unsecured lending can be sustained despite anonymity. Anonymity is a preferred feature of many modern decentralised finance applications. We assume the availability of a public ledger, as a blockchain can provide. We show that when agents use pseudonyms to trade (to maintain anonymity), the reputation built up over time through non-defaulting behaviour with these pseudonyms can support the continuation of credit.

description: Number-conserving cellular automata (NCCA) are particularly interesting, both because of their natural appearance as models of real systems, and because of the strong restrictions that number-conservation implies. Here we extend the definition of the property to include cellular automata with any set of states in $\Zset$, and show that they can be always extended to ``usual'' NCCA with contiguous states. We show a way to simulate any one dimensional CA through a one dimensional NCCA, proving the existence of intrinsically universal NCCA. Finally, we give an algorithm to decide, given a CA, if its states can be labeled with integers to produce a NCCA, and to find this relabeling if the answer is positive.

description: The International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL) satellite has yielded unprecedented measurements of the soft gamma-ray spectrum of our Galaxy. Here we use those measurements to set constraints on dark matter (DM) that decays or annihilates into photons with energies $E\approx 0.02-2$ MeV. First, we revisit the constraints on particle DM that decays or annihilates to photon pairs. In particular, for decaying DM, we find that previous limits were overstated by roughly an order of magnitude. Our new, conservative analysis finds that the DM lifetime must satisfy $τ\gtrsim 5\times 10^{26}\,{\rm s}\times (m_χ/\rm MeV)^{-1}$ for DM masses $m_χ=0.054-3.6$ MeV. For MeV-scale DM that annihilates into photons INTEGRAL sets the strongest constraints to date. Second, we target ultralight primordial black holes (PBHs) through their Hawking radiation. This makes them appear as decaying DM with a photon spectrum peaking at $E\approx 5.77/(8πG M_{\rm PBH})$, for a PBH of mass $M_{\rm PBH}$. We use the INTEGRAL data to demonstrate that, at 95\% C.L., PBHs with masses less than $1.2\times 10^{17}$ g cannot comprise all of the DM, setting the tightest bound to date on ultralight PBHs.

description: Purpose: Sub-acute recovery-oriented facilities offer short-term residential support for people living with mental illness. They are generally highly regarded by consumers, with emerging evidence indicating that these services may support recovery. The aim of the current study was to explore the relationship between personal recovery and consumers’ satisfaction with sub-acute residential services, and consumers’ views about service features that aid recovery. Methods: Consumers at 19 adult Prevention and Recovery Care Services in Victoria, Australia, were invited to complete measures containing sociodemographic information and measures on personal recovery and wellbeing. After going home, participants were invited to complete measures on service satisfaction and experience. Results: Total and intrapersonal scores on the personal recovery measure increased significantly between Time 1 and Time 2, indicating marked improvement. Personal recovery and satisfaction measures were moderately to strongly correlated. Thematically analysed open-ended responses revealed themes of feeling connected, finding meaning and purpose, and self-empowerment as important aspects of these services, with some recommendations for improvements. Conclusion: Sub-acute residential mental health care may support individuals’ personal recovery; consumer satisfaction indicates these services also offer an acceptable and supportive environment for the provision of recovery-oriented care. Further exploring consumers’ experiences of sub-acute residential services is essential to understand their effectiveness, opportunities for improvement and intended impacts on personal recovery.
Dynamically and thermodynamically stable black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton gravity

description: We consider Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton gravity with the non-minimal exponential coupling between the dilaton and the Maxwell field emerging from low energy heterotic string theory. The dilaton is endowed with a potential that originates from an electromagnetic Fayet-Iliopoulos (FI) term in $\mathcal{N}=2$ extended supergravity in four spacetime dimensions. For the case we are interested in, this potential introduces a single parameter $α$. When $α\rightarrow 0$, the static black holes (BHs) of the model are the Gibbons-Maeda-Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger (GMGHS) solutions. When $α\rightarrow \infty$, the BHs become the standard Reissner-Nordström (RN) solutions of electrovacuum General Relativity. The BH solutions for finite non-zero $α$ interpolate between these two families. In this case, the dilaton potential regularizes the extremal limit of the GMGHS solution yielding a set of zero temperature BHs with a near horizon $AdS_2\times S^2$ geometry. We show that, in the neighborhood of these extremal solutions, there is a subset of BHs that are dynamically and thermodynamically stable, all of which have charge to mass ratio larger than unity. By dynamical stability we mean that no growing quasi-normal modes are found; thus they are stable against linear perturbations (spherical and non-spherical). Moreover, non-linear numerical evolutions lend support to their non-linear stability. By thermodynamical stability we mean the BHs are stable both in the canonical and grand-canonical ensemble. In particular, both the specific heat at constant charge and the isothermal permittivity are positive. This is not possible for RN and GMGHS BHs. We discuss the different thermodynamical phases for the BHs in this model and comment on what may allow the existence of both dynamically and thermodynamically stable BHs.

Effects of Metallic Gates on ac Measurements of the Quantum Hall Resistance

description: Using a sample with a split back-gate, a linear frequency dependence of the ac quantum Hall resistance was observed. The frequency coefficient, which is due to dielectric losses produced by leakage current between the 2DEG and the back-gates, can be turned from a positive to a negative values by increasing the back-gate voltage. More interestingly, by removing theses back-gates, the losses can be considerably reduced leading to a residual frequency coefficient on the order of (0.03+-0.03) ppm/kHz. Moreover, at 1 kHz, an extremely flat plateau was observed over a magnetic field range of 1.4 T. These results clearly indicate that the audio frequency dependence of the QHR is to a large extend related to the measurement apparatus and does not originate from the physical transport properties of the 2DEG.

description: Among many approaches to increase the computational efficiency of semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation for quadratic constrained quadratic programming problems (QCQPs), exploiting the aggregate sparsity of the data matrices in the SDP by Fukuda et al. (2001) and second-order cone programming (SOCP) relaxation have been popular. In this paper, we exploit the aggregate sparsity of SOCP relaxation of QCQPs. Specifically, we prove that exploiting the aggregate sparsity reduces the number of second-order cones in the SOCP relaxation, and that we can simplify the matrix completion procedure by Fukuda et al. in both primal and dual of the SOCP relaxation problem without losing the max-determinant property. For numerical experiments, QCQPs from the lattice graph and pooling problem are tested as their SOCP relaxations provide the same optimal value as the SDP relaxations. We demonstrate that exploiting the aggregate sparsity improves the computational efficiency of the SOCP relaxation for the same objective value as the SDP relaxation, thus much larger problems can be handled by the proposed SOCP relaxation than the SDP relaxation.

description: We show that two initially non-resonant quantum dots may be brought into resonance by the application of a single detuned laser. This allows for control of the inter-dot interactions and the generation of highly entangled excitonic states on the picosecond timescale. Along with arbitrary single qubit manipulations, this system would be sufficient for the demonstration of a prototype excitonic quantum computer.

description: Youth-specific digital mental health interventions (DMHI) represent an emerging field of study, and aim to increase access, improve socioemotional outcomes, and, where required, support triage to targeted interventions. However, prior reviews have reported inconsistent findings on the clinical effectiveness of such interventions in young adults (12–25 years). Further, shortfalls remain for the impact of guided interventions based on the mode of delivery and the type of human support personnel (e.g., professional or peer) guiding the intervention. In response, this systematic review, co-designed with Australia’s leading mental health organization, aims to assess the effectiveness of guided digital programs in improving youth socioemotional outcomes. Included studies involve young people experiencing mental ill-health, receiving brief (i.e., 1–12 sessions), digitally delivered (at least partially) psychological interventions that were guided or partially guided, tested in a type of experimental study, with a socioemotional outcome. Specific socioemotional outcomes examined were depression, anxiety, stress, wellbeing, mindfulness, and quality of life. A systematic search of the contemporary published and grey literature identified 22,482 records with 32 relevant records published between 2018 and 2023. A narrative synthesis guided integration of findings. Results demonstrated strong evidence for the effectiveness of guided interventions on socioemotional outcomes (i.e., depression, anxiety, stress) yet these effects were short-lived. When factoring in the use of different control groups (i.e., active vs. inactive), inconsistent effects were observed for the socioemotional outcomes of depression, anxiety, and stress. The mode of delivery (i.e., asynchronous, synchronous, combined) and the type of human support personnel did not appear to impact socioemotional outcomes. Results indicate efficacious brief digital interventions for depression and anxiety include refresher/follow-up content, goal setting content, and relapse prevention content. In contrast, poor efficacy is associated with interventions that include homework tasks, self-monitoring, and log-keeping content. PROSPERO, ID CRD42023405812.
