description: Chapter 1, "Emergency Preparedness: Rare Events and the Persistence of Uncertainty," develops a framework to understand how uncertainty might spike and persist after low-probability events occur. Unexpected events can have lasting effects on financial uncertainty, which in turn affects the real economy. This chapter uses a model in which the realizations of ex-ante unlikely events endogenously result in lower levels of private information. Lower levels of information propagate within the model, as uncertainty makes it harder for agents to acquire information about future periods, resulting in uncertainty persistence. This model of uncertainty is applied to an economy with a financial market. Uncertainty reduces asset demand and expected wealth, while increasing dispersion of beliefs. It also reduces investment and output, and results in higher credit spreads. Data on financial uncertainty, dispersion of beliefs, risk appetite, and credit spreads confirm the predictions of the model.
      Chapter 2, "Inattentive Valuation and Belief Polarization," uses a similar motivation to think about how two agents can disagree on the truth after seeing the same data. Based on the recent literature in inattention, we build a model allowing identical agents, shown the same set of signals from an objective state of the world, to permanently diverge in their posteriors. The inattentive framework allows for two effects: a confirmation and a confidence effect. The former states that agents who have a bias arrange their attention to perceive signals that agree with that bias. The latter states that agents pay less attention to any signal the more biased they are. These effects allow for permanent polarization of posteriors, even on issues with objective truth.
      Chapter 3, "The Real Consequences of Countercyclical Capital Controls," looks at the consequences of capital controls on investment and consumption in Brazil. Brazil is the most preeminent case of controls being imposed countercyclically. We find that capital controls have a significant negative impact on investment. The macro analysis uses a synthetic control method and finds that investment could have been approximately 20% higher if controls had not been put in place. The micro analysis uses a panel data approach and finds that the controls reduced the investment to assets ratio by as much as 40%, with some of its effects mitigated by the extension of subsidized credit by the government through the development bank. These results indicate that the renewed support for controls since the Great Financial Crisis should be more cautiously evaluated as it might harm the potential growth rate of Emerging Economies for a long-lasting period.

description: We show that the Olami-Feder-Christensen model exhibits an effective ergodicity breaking transition as the noise is varied. Above the critical noise, the average stress on each site converges to the global average. Below the critical noise, the stress on individual sites becomes trapped in different limit cycles. We use ideas from the study of dynamical systems and compute recurrence plots and the recurrence rate. We identify the order parameter as the recurrence rate averaged over all sites and find numerical evidence that the transition can be characterized by exponents that are consistent with hyperscaling.

description: In quantum field theory there is now a well developed technique, effective field theory, which allows one to obtain low energy quantum predictions in ``non-renormalizable'' theories, using only the degrees of freedom and interactions appropriate for those energies. Whether or not general relativity is truly fundamental, at low energies it is automatically described as a quantum effective field theory and this allows a consistent framework for quantum gravity at ordinary energies. I briefly describe the nature and limits of the technique.

description: Although much progress had been made in past decades, the prospects for food and nutrition security are now deteriorating and the converging crises of climate change and Covid-19 present major risks for nutrition and health, and challenges to the development of sustainable food systems. In 2018, the InterAcademy Partnership published a report on the scientific opportunities and challenges for food and nutrition security and agriculture based on four regional reports by academy networks in Africa, Asia, the Americas and Europe. These analyses and conclusions have now been updated as briefs to the UN Food Systems Summit. The present global brief draws on new evidence from the regions to reaffirm the continuing rapid pace of science, technology and innovation and the need to act urgently worldwide to capitalise on the new opportunities to transform food systems.
We cover issues for sustainable, healthy food systems in terms of the whole food value chain, including consumption and waste, the interconnections between agriculture and natural resources, and the objectives for developing a more balanced food production strategy (for land and sea) to deliver nutritional, social and environmental benefits. Our focus is on science and we discuss a range of transdisciplinary research opportunities that can underpin the UN FSS Action Tracks, inform the introduction of game changers, and provide core resource to stimulate innovation, inform practice and guide policy decisions. Academies of science, with their strengths of scientific excellence, inclusiveness, diversity and capacity to link between national, regional and global levels, are continuing to support the scientific community in playing a key role to catalyse action. Our recommendations concentrate on priorities for building the science base – including the recognition of the importance of fundamental research – to generate diverse yet equitable solutions in providing sustainable, healthy diets, which are culturally sensitive and attend to the needs of vulnerable populations. We also urge better use of the transdisciplinary science base to advise policy making and suggest that this would be greatly advanced by constituting an international advisory Panel for Food and Nutrition Security with particular emphasis on sustainable food systems.

description: In this paper, we consider the competitive facility location problem as a version of n-round Manhatan-metric Voronoi game with two players, where the distance measure is the Man- hattan metric. Players alternate placing points, one at a time, into the playing arena that is a symmetric polygon, until each of them has placed n points. The arena is then subdivided according to the nearest-neighbor rule under the Manhattan distance, and the player whose points control the larger area wins. We study a winning strategy for the second player in a special version of the game.

description: In this brief report I introduce a yet another class of geometries for which semi-classical chronology protection theorems are of dubious physical reliability. I consider a ``Roman ring'' of traversable wormholes, wherein a number of wormholes are arranged in a ring in such a manner that no subset of wormholes is near to chronology violation, though the combined system can be arbitrarily close to chronology violation. I show that (with enough wormholes in the ring) the gravitational vacuum polarization (the expectation value of the quantum stress-energy tensor) can be made arbitrarily small. In particular the back-reaction can be kept arbitrarily small all the way to the ``reliability horizon''---so that semi-classical quantum gravity becomes unreliable before the gravitational back reaction becomes large.

A risk assessment / risk management perspective on mercury contaminated sediments in mining affected Pinchi Lake, BC

description: The Pinchi Mine, located on the merciferous Pinchi Fault region of BC, produced metallic mercury from 1940 to 1944 (historical operation) and from 1968 to 1975 (modern operation). Between 2010 and 2012, the mine underwent decommissioning and reclamation to ensure that the terrestrial areas affected by the mine do not pose unacceptable risks to ecological resources. The historical operations included placement of roasted ores (calcines) in Pinchi Lake adjacent to the site, resulting in highly elevated mercury concentrations in nearshore sediments (subsurface calcines). This source, as well as aerial deposition of elemental Hg during the roasting process during both operations, broadly elevated sediment mercury concentrations throughout the lake. In 1997, inorganic and methylmercury concentrations were measured in pore water and sediment at different depths in sediment cores and showed that subsurface calcine sediment was a significant contributor of inorganic mercury to the lake, notwithstanding slow burial by cleaner sediments. In 2001, a sediment quality triad (chemistry, toxicity, benthos) study showed no correlation between sediment inorganic mercury concentration, toxicity or benthic community structure. However, benthic organisms living in subsurface calcine sediment were elevated in total and methylmercury concentrations relative to benthos elsewhere in the lake. This paper reviews and integrates historical sediment investigations using a risk assessment and risk management framework to guide further investigations and support long-term decision-making regarding Pinchi Lake sediment.

description: In the limit of low particle density, electrons confined to a quantum dot form strongly correlated states termed Wigner molecules, in which the Coulomb interaction causes the electrons to become highly localized in space. By using an effective model of Hubbard-type to describe these states, we investigate how an oscillatory electric field can drive the dynamics of a two-electron Wigner molecule held in a square quantum dot. We find that, for certain combinations of frequency and strength of the applied field, the tunneling between various charge configurations can be strongly quenched, and we relate this phenomenon to the presence of anti-crossings in the Floquet quasi-energy spectrum. We further obtain simple analytic expressions for the location of these anti-crossings, which allows the effective parameters for a given quantum dot to be directly measured in experiment, and suggests the exciting possibility of using ac-fields to control the time evolution of entangled states in mesoscopic devices.

Universal Spectra and Tijdeman's Conjecture on Factorization of Cyclic Groups

description: A spectral set in R^n is a set X of finite Lebesgue measure such that L^2(X) has an orthogonal basis of exponentials. It is conjectured that every spectral set tiles R^n by translations. A set of translations T has a universal spectrum if every set that that tiles by translations by T has this spectrum. A recent result proved that many periodic tiling sets have universal spectra, using results from factorizations of abelian groups, for groups for which a strong form of a conjecture of Tijdeman is valid. This paper shows Tijdeman's conjecture does not hold for the cyclic group of order 900. It formulates a new sufficient conjecture for a periodic tiling set to have a universal spectrum, and uses it to show that the tiling sets for the counterexample above do have universal spectra.

description: We study the dynamics of anisotropic Bianchi type-IX models with matter and cosmological constant. The models can be thought as describing the role of anisotropy in the early stages of inflation. The concurrence of the cosmological constant and anisotropy are sufficient to produce a chaotic dynamics in the gravitational degrees of freedom, connected to the presence of a critical point of saddle-center type in the phase space of the system. The invariant character of chaos is guaranteed by the topology of the cylinders emanating from unstable periodic orbits in the neighborhood of the saddle-center. We discuss a possible mechanism for amplification of specific wavelengths of inhomogeneous fluctuations in the models. A geometrical interpretation is given for Wald's inequality in terms of invariant tori and their destruction by increasing values of the cosmological constant.

description: The research missions of the German Marine Research Alliance (DAM) focus on highly relevant topics for society and support science-based decisions for the sustainable use and management of coastal areas and oceans. In these large-scale, transdisciplinary and cross-institutional projects, effective data management is an important prerequisite to ensure the long-term preservation and reusability of research data. Our working group supports scientists involved in the DAM research missions to make their research data FAIR - Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable. We regularly discuss various challenges in research data management such as reservation towards data sharing, or a lack of knowledge, personnel and resources to implement sustainable data management. Consequently, we develop and offer solutions, formulate recommendations and organize informational and training events. We highlight the advantages of FAIR data handling, promote the connection to DAM-related activities such as the project “Underway” Research Data and the Marine Data Portal, and support data publishing and archiving e.g. in PANGAEA - Data Publisher for Earth & Environmental Science. We found that existing and dedicated data managers, good communication and training, as well as practical technical solutions are key to supporting scientists to manage their data FAIRly.

description: The effect of noise on self-similar set is studied. The iteratie procedure used to generate the self-similar set is moidified by adding a stochastic variable to the diameter of generating sets at each iteration. The noise may causes the generating set to collapse to a point. Distribution functions are found describing the probability that any generating set collapse. The effect of chaotic disturbance on the iteration of self-similar set is studied. It is shown that the iterative procedure which describes the self-similar set is truncated under the influence of disturbance generated by the tent map. Conditions which lead to truncation of any chaotic map are also obtained.

description: Numerical study of order parameter dynamics in the course of second order (Landau-Ginzburg) symmetry breaking transitions shows that the density of topological defects, kinks, is proportional to the fourth root of the rate of the quench. This confirms the more general theory of domain-size evolution in the course of symmetry breaking transformations proposed by one of us \cite{Zurek85}. Using these ideas, it is possible to compute the density of topological defects from the quench timescale and from the equilibrium scaling of the correlation length and relaxation time near the critical point.

To prevent collisions with the patient and the environment, the robot needs to move respecting Cartesian constraints.

description: A recent experiment by Shimizu et al. has provided evidence of a superconducting phase in hcp Fe under pressure. To study the pressure-dependence of this superconducting phase we have calculated the phonon frequencies and the electron-phonon coupling in hcp Fe as a function of the lattice parameter, using the linear response (LR) scheme and the full potential linear muffin-tin orbital (FP-LMTO) method. Calculated phonon spectra and the Eliashberg functions $α^2 F$ indicate that conventional s-wave electron-phonon coupling can definitely account for the appearance of the superconducting phase in hcp Fe. However, the observed change in the transition temperature with increasing pressure is far too rapid compared with the calculated results. For comparison with the linear response results, we have computed the electron-phonon coupling also by using the rigid muffin-tin (RMT) approximation. From both the LR and the RMT results it appears that electron-phonon interaction alone cannot explain the small range of volume over which superconductivity is observed. It is shown that ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations as well as scattering from magnetic impurities (spin-ordered clusters) can account for the observed values of the transition temperatures but cannot substantially improve the agreeemnt between the calculated and observed presure/volume range of the superconducting phase. A simplified treatment of p-wave pairing leads to extremely small ($\leq 10^{-2}$ K) transition temperatures. Thus our calculations seem to rule out both $s$- and $p$- wave superconductivity in hcp Fe.

Mechanisms of behavioural variance and plasticity in the desert locust
Creators: name: Cooper, Ben
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2021
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Individual behavioural variability is widespread and well-studied, but evidence of underlying mechanisms remains scarce. The desert locust has evolved the capacity to express two very distinct eco-phenotypes; a lone-living, cryptic ‘solitarious phase’ and a swarming ‘gregarious phase’ that aggregates into very large and dense groups, in response to contrasting selection pressures that change rapidly. In this thesis, I use this ‘phase polyphenism’ to provide much-needed empirical evidence of evolutionary and proximate mechanisms which underpin individual behavioural variability. In Chapter 1, I review between- and within-individual behavioural variability and discuss implications of variability and plasticity for selection and evolution. I suggest how the molecular chaperone Hsp90, which has been shown to reduce morphological variability, may also regulate both behavioural variability and plasticity in the form of polyphenisms.In Chapter 2, I demonstrate that gregarious locusts show reduced between- and withinindividual behavioural variability in a novel locomotor hesitation assay. Analyses of an archive of locomotor tracks from a different behavioural assay validate this finding. This provides empirical evidence supporting the hypothesis that group-living animals express lower behavioural variability than lone-living animals.In Chapter 3, I inhibit Hsp90 activity and expression using pharmacology and RNAi and show that this increases within- and between-individual behavioural variability in locomotor hesitation. This provides the first evidence that Hsp90 reduces behavioural variability analogous to its role in morphology.In Chapter 4, immuno-dot blot analysis of dissected central nervous systems reveals Hsp90 protein expression is comparable between the two phases and does not change during phase transition. Additionally, inhibition of Hsp90 prior to phase transition does not affect behavioural phase state. This indicates that Hsp90 is not involved in canalising behaviour in locust phase polyphenism.In Chapter 5, I synthesize these findings, suggest avenues for future research, and discuss mechanistic and evolutionary insights gained from my work.

In the semimetal, the band structure holds point nodes at the $Γ$ and R points in the Brillouin zone and more than three bands touch at the nodes. Around the nodes, electronic states are predicted to be described as the multifold chiral fermion, a new class of fermion. We show that the dynamical conductivity exhibits a characteristic spectrum corresponding to the band structure and the chiral fermionic states. The dynamical conductivity of CoSi is calculated as a function of photon energy by using the first-principles band calculation and linear response theory. We show that a dip structure in the low photon-energy region is attributed to not only the band structure but also the chirality of electronic states. The chirality leads to the prohibition of transition between the lower and upper bands of threefold chiral fermion and thus the transition between the middle and lower bands is relevant to the dynamical conductivity. This transition property is different from the Dirac and Weyl semimetals, the other point-nodal semimetals, where the excitation between the upper and lower bands is relevant to the dynamical conductivity. We discuss the relation between the prohibition and the dip structure by using an effective Hamiltonian describing threefold chiral fermion.

The effect of site preparation on the establishment of native grassland species in southern interior

description: New Gold’s New Afton Mine, located near Kamloops in the BC southern interior grasslands, is committed to ecosystem restoration through stakeholder consultation and research, including restoration of native grassland. Our objective was to study restoration potential of 24 selected native species from the BC interior grasslands, including those of cultural significance to First Nations. We applied a controlled experimental manipulation on the top of a flattened top soil stockpile to test germination and establishment of 12 native forb and 12 native graminoid species seeded on plots that were raked, hydroseeded or seeded with no manipulation. Raking resulted in greater establishment and count data for both native forb and graminoid species; however, it also increased the number of ‘volunteer’ non-native forbs. Hydroseeding had a negative effect on native graminoid species overall and on non-native forb species. Plant diversity, calculated as Shannon’s diversity index, was greatest in the seeded plots that had been hydroseeded and hydroseeded + raked. As well, species richness was highest in the raked + seeded treatments. In terms of management, raking appears to result in positive seed germination for many native species; whereas hydroseeding was less effective.
Apple Leaf Disease Identification through Region-of-Interest-Aware Deep Convolutional Neural Network

description: A new method of recognizing apple leaf diseases through region-of-interest-aware deep convolutional neural network is proposed in this paper. The primary idea is that leaf disease symptoms appear in the leaf area whereas the background region contains no useful information regarding leaf diseases. To realize this idea, two subnetworks are first designed. One is for the division of the input image into three areas: background, leaf area, and spot area indicating the leaf diseases, which is the region of interest, and the other is for the classification of leaf diseases. The two subnetworks exhibit the architecture types of an encoder-decoder network and VGG network, respectively; subsequently, they are trained separately through transfer learning with a new training set containing class information, according to the types of leaf diseases and the ground truth images where the background, leaf area, and spot area are separated. Next, to connect these subnetworks and subsequently train the connected whole network in an end-to-end manner, the predicted ROI feature map is stacked on the top of the input image through a fusion layer, and subsequently fed into the subnetwork used for the leaf disease identification. The experimental results indicate that correct recognition accuracy can be increased using the predicted ROI feature map. It is also shown that the proposed method obtains better performance than the conventional state-of-the-art methods: transfer-learning-based methods, bilinear model, and multiscale-based deep feature extraction, and pooling approach.
Preservation Through The Self-Help Housing Movement

description: Older, multi-family, residential buildings were threatened by abandonment, landlord neglect, demolition, and fire in New York City’s most distressed neighborhoods before, during, and following the 1975 fiscal crisis. However, several of these resources survived this period through the value that tenants, communities and housing advocates saw in them. In this thesis, I sought to answer these questions: What role did tenants have in the preservation of distressed buildings? How did city agencies and housing advocates enable and help them? How did these actors perceive the preservation of distressed residential buildings through self-help? To what extent have the physical characteristics of the buildings been preserved? How have these actions preserved other aspects such as affordability, community, and continuity of residents? What lessons can be learned from New York City’s history of self-help housing? The thesis is organized into three parts. Part I provides background information about housing issues in the city during this period, the tenant movement, and rehabilitation and low-income tenant ownership policies. Part II presents a narrative of self-help housing experiences—from squatting, sweat equity, and urban homesteading—in Morningside Heights and Manhattan Valley neighborhoods that are connected through key actors and organizations. In Part III, I asses my research findings regarding physical, community, and affordable housing preservation. I argue that through the self-help housing movement, tenants in New York City preserved physical built characteristics of their residences and neighborhoods. Their collective actions brought and held together communities. They generated affordable housing for themselves and others. These occurrences may not have been possible without the support of advocacy groups and government bodies who provided support, financing, and formality. Most buildings discussed are still standing and attractive neighborhood resources. Yet, not all have been able to preserve their social integrity—the collaborative spirit that saved them and affordability to the lower-income residents they served.
On the Integrability of Bianchi Cosmological Models

description: In this work, we are investigating the problem of integrability of Bianchi class A cosmological models. This class of systems is reduced to the form of Hamiltonian systems with exponential potential forms. The dynamics of Bianchi class A models is investigated through the Euler-Lagrange equations and geodesic equations in the Jacobi metric. On this basis, we have come to some general conclusions concerning the evolution of the volume function of 3-space of constant time. The formal and general form of this function has been found. It can serve as a controller during numerical calculations of the dynamics of cosmological models. The integrability of cosmological models is also discussed from the points of view of different integrability criterions. We show that dimension of phase space of Bianchi class A Hamiltonian systems can be reduced by two. We prove vector field of the reduced system is polynomial and it does not admit any analytic, or even formal first integral.

description: Fuzzy clustering of 238 TNBC. Distribution of patients based on probability of belonging to cluster: C1, n = 55 (blue); C2, n = 98 (red) and C3, n = 85 (green). Each vertex of the triangle represents a cluster and each point represents a patient, placed as the barycenter of the triangle, weights being the probabilities of belonging to each of the clusters. The closer a point is to one of the vertices, the greater is the probability of the patient to belong to the corresponding cluster. (PDF 86 kb)
