title: Primary Dealers and the Demand for Government Debt

Year: 2020

description: "The main objectives of debt management are to raise stable and low-cost funding to meet the government’s financial needs and to maintain a well-functioning market for government securities. A challenge is determining how to sell government debt: the sale format, the choice of securities to offer and the allocation across different maturities.

This paper focuses on the allocation of debt across maturities. We propose a method for identifying dependencies in the demand for securities of different maturities. We also present a dealer-client model that captures the interplay between the primary and secondary markets. This interplay rationalizes our empirical results: that the demand of dealers across maturities at auction is complementary.

Our results point to the important role that primary dealers play in making markets and highlight how this shows up in demand in primary markets. Given that different clients demand securities of different maturities (preferred habitat), primary dealers satisfy this demand largely by bidding at auction in fixed proportions. Debt managers, therefore, need to ensure that they issue enough volume across maturities to satisfy the varied demand."

description: "La gestion de la dette a comme principaux objectifs d’obtenir un financement stable et à faible coût pour combler les besoins financiers du gouvernement et d’assurer le bon fonctionnement du marché des titres émis par l’État. Un des défis consiste à déterminer comment vendre ces titres : les modalités de la vente, le choix des titres à offrir et la répartition entre les différentes échéances.

Notre étude porte sur la répartition des titres d’emprunt entre les différentes échéances. Nous proposons une méthode pour repérer les dépendances dans la demande de titres de différentes échéances. Nous présentons aussi un modèle courtier-client qui rend compte de l’interaction entre les marchés primaire et secondaire. Cette interaction explique nos résultats empiriques : la demande des courtiers selon les différentes échéances lors des adjudications est complémentaire.

Nos résultats font ressortir le rôle important que jouent les négociants principaux dans la tenue de marché et mettent en évidence la manière dont il se manifeste dans la demande sur le marché primaire. Étant donné que les différents clients demandent des titres de différentes échéances (théorie de l’habitat préféré), les négociants principaux répondent à cette demande en grande partie en soumissionnant aux adjudications dans des proportions fixes. Les gestionnaires de dette doivent donc émettre un volume suffisant pour toutes les échéances afin de satisfaire à la demande variée."

description: High-stress silicon nitride nanostrings are a promising system for sensing applications because of their ultra-high mechanical quality factors (Qs). By performing thermomechanical calibration across multiple vibrational modes, we are able to assess the roles of the various dissipation mechanisms in these devices. Specifically, we possess a set of nanostrings in which all measured modes fall upon a single curve of peak displacement versus frequency. This allows us to rule out bulk bending and intrinsic loss mechanisms as dominant sources of dissipation and to conclude that the most significant contribution to dissipation in high-stress nanostrings occurs at the anchor points.

description: This research studies the behavior of the dispersion of a pollutant cloud, through the simulation of an eddy field velocity. To do so, a mathematical model was developed, with base in the Monte Carlo simulations, in order to analyze all statistic aspects, present in this process. A computational program was developed, so that if can be possible to establish the behavior of the cloud size, in a scale close to the beginning of the process. The reason for that is justified by the difficulty that the Models, based in the Hydrodynamic Theory, has to manage some results in the beginning of the dispersion process. The results have shown that the model satisfy the objective of the research, as well it could be the first step to analyze the process of dispersion of pollutant in large scale.
title: Non-competing Data Intermediaries

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada

description: I study a model of competing data intermediaries (e.g., online platforms and data brokers) that collect personal data from consumers and sell it to downstream firms. Competition in this market has a limited impact in terms of benefits to consumers: If intermediaries offer high compensation for their data, then consumers may share this data with multiple intermediaries, and this lowers its downstream price and hurts intermediaries. As intermediaries anticipate this problem, they offer low compensation for this data. Competing intermediaries can earn a monopoly profit if and only if firms’ data acquisition unambiguously hurts consumers. I generalize the results to include arbitrary consumer preferences and study the information design of data intermediaries. The results provide new insights into when competition among data intermediaries benefits consumers. It also highlights the limits of competition in terms of improving efficiency in the market for data.

description: "J’examine un modèle de la concurrence entre les intermédiaires de données, comme les plateformes en ligne et les courtiers en données, qui recueillent les données personnelles des consommateurs et les vendent à des entreprises en aval. La concurrence sur ce marché a une
incidence limitée sur les consommateurs du point de vue des avantages : si les intermédiaires offraient une compensation généreuse en échange des données des consommateurs, ces derniers pourraient être tentés de transmettre leurs données à de multiples intermédiaires, ce
qui diminuerait le prix des données en aval et nuirait aux intermédiaires. Comme les intermédiaires anticipent ce problème, ils offrent une faible compensation pour les données. Les intermédiaires concurrents peuvent réaliser un profit monopolistique, mais seulement si
l’acquisition des données par les entreprises est indéniablement désavantageuse pour les consommateurs. Je généralise les résultats pour tenir compte des préférences arbitraires des consommateurs et j’analyse la conception de l’information des intermédiaires de données. Les résultats permettent de mieux comprendre dans quel contexte la concurrence entre les intermédiaires de données profite aux consommateurs. Ils révèlent aussi les limites du rôle que joue la concurrence dans l’amélioration de l’efficacité du marché des données."
Collateral Damage: The Impact on Pakistan From U.S. Sanctions Against Iran

description: Senior Scholar Richard Nephew assesses the unintended consequences of sanctions and explores to what degree such consequences should be considered when formulating statecraft. Using the case of U.S. sanctions against Iran--which were first imposed in 1996 in the Iran-Libya Sanctions Act (ILSA) and followed up by the comprehensive embargo against Iran erected by President Clinton--Nephew examines whether these sanctions had a discernible, deleterious impact on Pakistan and its energy firms, as a result of a diminished Iranian natural gas sector.
Nephew concludes that Pakistan was harmed by the imposition of sanctions against Iran, but that it is impossible to ascertain how much the effectiveness of the sanctions regime would have been impaired in their absence. Based on his analysis, he offers three over-arching recommendations for policymakers considering the use of sanctions:
When imposing sanctions, ensure preparations for action include an extensive exploration of the range of consequences that may result from those sanctions. Consider long-term economic damage, especially with respect to the interests of those beyond the sanctioned and the sanctioner.
Do more to help address the inevitable, if unintended, consequences from sanctions. This is not only fair and decent, but taking such an approach can also strengthen sanctions enforcement on the part of others.
Conduct more detailed analysis on the potential consequences of sanctions imposition, including through use of public information and comment periods.

XRPD profiles of the raw individual components used in the study, along with the t = 0 spray dried nanoparticle powder (light blue, bottom). The signal of ‘OZ439 oleate, etc.’ was obtained by physically mixing OZ439 mesylate dissolved in methanol and sodium oleate dissolved in methanol with water. The resulting solution became cloudy, indicating the formation of an insoluble OZ439:oleate complex. The solution was dried and XRPD was performed. This profile can be thought of as a physical mixture of sodium oleate, sodium mesylate, OZ439 mesylate, and OZ439 oleate. The peaks at Q = 1.3, 1.4, and 1.6 nm−1 in the NP powder align closely with similar peaks in sodium mesylate (green, second from top), suggesting these peaks are due to sodium mesylate that formed from spectator sodium and mesylate ions during drying. These sodium mesylate crystals likely formed outside the NPs and are not associated with the amorphous OZ439:oleate core.

description: This paper describes a procedure grouping streamflow patterns across Turkey that exhibit similar annual flow behaviors. Streamflow information is the integrated response of the river basin, such as topography, soil and vegetation to external impacts such as climate. A regionalization of annual data is carried out using k-means analysis. Streamflow series from 80 gauging stations were chosen to characterize geographic differences in year to year streamflow variability. The eight-cluster solutions of k-means analysis are stable and interpretable with reference to spatial and temporal variations. It was shown that western Turkey is dominated by a relatively large cluster, indicating strong influences of the Mediterranean dynamics. The resultant map was given at the 8-cluster level, showing the spatial variability of homogeneous streamflow regions.
SDSS quasars in the WISE preliminary data release and quasar candidate selection with optical/infrared colors

description: We present a catalog of 37,842 quasars in the SDSS Data Release 7, which have counterparts within 6" in the WISE Preliminary Data Release. The overall WISE detection rate of the SDSS quasars is 86.7%, and it decreases to less than 50.0% when the quasar magnitude is fainter than $i=20.5$. We derive the median color-redshift relations based on this SDSS-WISE quasar sample and apply them to estimate the photometric redshifts of the SDSS-WISE quasars. We find that by adding the WISE W1- and W2-band data to the SDSS photometry we can increase the photometric redshift reliability, defined as the percentage of sources with the photometric and spectroscopic redshift difference less than 0.2, from 70.3% to 77.2%. We also obtain the samples of WISE-detected normal and late-type stars with SDSS spectroscopy, and present a criterion in the $z-W1$ versus $g-z$ color-color diagram, $z-W1>0.66(g-z)+2.01$, to separate quasars from stars. With this criterion we can recover 98.6% of 3089 radio-detected SDSS-WISE quasars with redshifts less than four and overcome the difficulty in selecting quasars with redshifts between 2.2 and 3 from SDSS photometric data alone. We also suggest another criterion involving the WISE color only, $W1-W2>0.57$, to efficiently separate quasars with redshifts less than 3.2 from stars. In addition, we compile a catalog of 5614 SDSS quasars detected by both WISE and UKIDSS surveys and present their color-redshift relations in the optical and infrared bands. By using the SDSS $ugriz$, UKIDSS YJHK and WISE W1- and W2-band photometric data, we can efficiently select quasar candidates and increase the photometric redshift reliability up to 87.0%. We discuss the implications of our results on the future quasar surveys. An updated SDSS-WISE quasar catalog consisting of 101,853 quasars with the recently released WISE all-sky data is also provided.

description: A role of a particle-particle p-wave spin interaction in Fermi liquids with s-wave pairing is studied. Depending on the sign of the interaction there arises either the new exciton collective mode below the pair-breaking threshold or the diffusive excitation mode above the threshold. The Landau parameters which control the interaction strength are evaluated for various systems: the dilute fermion gases, degenerate electron liquid, metals, atomic nuclei and neutron matter. The interaction removes also the square-root singularity in the phase space of pair breaking processes. It is shown how these effects influence the neutrino emissivity in the neutron Cooper-pair recombinations in neutron stars.

description: Motivated by the recent prediction that uniaxially compressed aerogel can stabilize the anisotropic A phase over the isotropic B phase, we measure the pressure dependent superfluid fraction of 3He entrained in 10% axially compressed, 98% porous aerogel. We observe that a broad region of the temperature-pressure phase diagram is occupied by the metastable A phase. The reappearance of the A phase on warming from the B phase, before superfluidity is extinguished at Tc, is in contrast to its absence in uncompressed aerogel. The phase diagram is modified from that of pure 3He, with the disappearance of the polycritical point (PCP) and the appearance of a region of A phase extending below the PCP of bulk 3He, even in zero applied magnetic field. The expected alignment of the A phase texture by compression is not observed.

Economic Indicators as Public Interventions

description: This essay argues that the term public intellectual is too narrow for historical research about the public influence of economists and economic expertise. We propose, instead, the concept of public interventions to inform a more comprehensive approach that broadens the analytical frame by multiplying the relevant actors, modes, and targets of intervention yet could still include within it research on public intellectuals narrowly construed. As an empirical example, we suggest that the design and diffusion of economic indicators—specifically, the GDP and the myriad indicators compiled in recent years as part of proposals to replace it with a better representation of human welfare—could be analyzed as a specific mode by which economists intervene in and shape the public sphere.
Evidence of an interaction from resolved stellar populations: The curious case of NGC1313

description: The galaxy NGC1313 has attracted the attention of various studies due to the peculiar morphology observed in optical bands, although it is classified as a barred, late-type galaxy with no apparent close-by companions. However, the velocity field suggests an interaction with a satellite companion. Using resolved stellar populations, we study different parts of the galaxy to understand further its morphology. Based on HST/ACS images, we estimated star formation histories by means of the synthetic CMD method in different areas in the galaxy. Incompleteness limits our analysis to ages younger than ~100Myr. Stars in the red and blue He burning phases are used to trace the distribution of recent star formation. Star formation histories suggest a burst in the southern-west region. We support the idea that NGC1313 is experiencing an interaction with a satellite companion, observed as a tidally disrupted satellite galaxy in the south-west of NGC1313. However, we do not observe any indication of a perturbation due to the interaction with the satellite galaxy at other locations across the galaxy, suggesting that only a modest-sized companion that did not trigger a global starburst was involved.

Educators' dilemmas : post high school transitions for students without documentation
Creators: name: Radoff, Sara A.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Through an institutional ethnography in two secondary public schools in northwest Washington State, this research explores the web of social relations coordinating the lived experiences of students without legal immigration status and the educators who taught them. The U.S. Supreme Court decision, Plyler v. Doe, guarantees students’ access to a public K-12 education, regardless of immigration status. However, without a pathway to legalize their residency, unauthorized status inevitably denies these students full social membership in a polity, which excludes them from assuming paid professional careers, presents significant obstacles in pursuing higher education, and precludes their full social and political participation. Those without authorized status are unable to fully actualize the dreams, knowledge and skills developed throughout their education. Situated in this tension, I examined educators’ everyday schooling activities that prepared students for life after graduation. Educators’ daily practices groomed students to become college-bound and career-driven. To pursue these goals, my research suggests that ruling relations positioned educators to enact depoliticized discourses of meritocracy and a decontextaulized student-centered practice, as well as practices that silenced the social, political and economic contexts of students’ lives. Situated in a contradictory intersection of education and immigration policy, I argue that redressing the root cause of the injustice that students without legal status experience requires political action. This research suggests that educators dedicated to a socially just education grounded in human rights would commit to political action, express passionate and informed encouragement to their students, and acknowledge and engage status as a lived experience in their students’ lives.

description: In this paper, modification of Anaerobic Digestion Model No. 1 (ADMl), developed by the International Water Association (IWA) Task Group, to accommodate effects of accumulation of waste in the digester is explained. The modification includes incorporation of a physically-based methodology to ADMl to account for an unsteady state. The methodology is used to estimate the disease in the operating volume and the increase in retention time consecutively due to biomass recycling in the reactor caused by the accumulation of particulate matter and operational variations. The methodology considers both the reduction in the operating volume, and the increase in retention time due to the accumulation, and accompanied biomass recycling. By the evaluation of The Modified Model outputs and comparison with the Original Model outputs, the methodology, developed in the research, is found to be necessary and suitable for simulation of the anaerobic digestion in a Colorado Pork anaerobic digester.

description: How do individuals maintain a sense of efficacy and purpose in the face of high levels of ambiguity and uncertainty? In research on medical uncertainty, sociologists often discuss the strategies health practitioners employ to control uncertainties relating to diagnosis and treatment. Over six months of ethnographic field work at an autism-only therapy school, we observed seventy-five students and forty-seven instructors and formally interviewed ten instructors and four parents. While other studies on medical uncertainty have focused on controls over external circumstances, we demonstrate that another management strategy is for individuals to perform ethical work on themselves in order to adjust how they conduct themselves in uncertain situations. Despite the ambiguity of both the autism diagnosis and the therapeutic method employed at the school, instructors are able to maintain a sense of efficacy and to recognize themselves as “doing floortime” by transforming themselves to become “child directed.”

description: High-bit-rate nanocavity-based single photon sources in the 1,550-nm telecom band are challenges facing the development of fibre-based long-haul quantum communication networks. Here we report a very fast single photon source in the 1,550-nm telecom band, which is achieved by a large Purcell enhancement that results from the coupling of a single InAs quantum dot and an InP photonic crystal nanocavity. At a resonance, the spontaneous emission rate was enhanced by a factor of 5 resulting a record fast emission lifetime of 0.2 ns at 1,550 nm. We also demonstrate that this emission exhibits an enhanced anti-bunching dip. This is the first realization of nanocavity-enhanced single photon emitters in the 1,550-nm telecom band. This coupled quantum dot cavity system in the telecom band thus provides a bright high-bit-rate non-classical single photon source that offers appealing novel opportunities for the development of a long-haul quantum telecommunication system via optical fibres.

title: Managing GDP Tail Risk
Creators: name: Duprey, Thibaut

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2020

description: Models for macroeconomic forecasts do not usually take into account the risk of a crisis—that is, a sudden large decline in gross domestic product (GDP). However, policy-makers worry about such GDP tail risk because of its large social and economic costs. Our practical framework provides monetary and macroprudential policy-makers with guidance on the trade-off between GDP tail risk and the most likely growth path for future GDP.

Focusing on Canada, we compare the effectiveness of monetary and macroprudential policies. We first show that monetary and macroprudential policies can manage GDP tail risk by influencing household credit. Specifically, we find that household credit growth is the main driver of GDP tail risk in the medium term: more credit today ultimately increases the risk of a crisis.

We then estimate the trade-off policy-makers face and show that a tighter monetary or macroprudential policy reduces GDP tail risk at the expense of macroeconomic stability in normal times. So policy-makers worried about GDP tail risk would choose a tighter policy stance than a standard macroeconomic forecasting model suggests. Since it is practical, our framework can add crisis risk to macroeconomic forecasts that usually ignore it and give policy-makers a tool to effectively communicate the trade-offs they face.

description: La plupart des modèles de prévisions macroéconomiques ne tiennent pas compte du risque de crise, soit le risque d’une baisse marquée et soudaine du produit intérieur brut (PIB). Pourtant, les décideurs se préoccupent de ce type de risque extrême étant donné les coûts socioéconomiques substantiels qui en découleraient. Notre cadre pratique oriente les autorités monétaires et macroprudentielles sur l’arbitrage entre ce risque extrême et le profil de croissance le plus probable du PIB.

En nous penchant particulièrement sur le cas du Canada, nous comparons l’efficacité des politiques monétaire et macroprudentielle. Nous commençons par montrer que celles-ci peuvent permettre de gérer le risque extrême pour le PIB en influant sur le crédit aux ménages. Plus précisément, nous constatons que la croissance du crédit aux ménages est le principal facteur contribuant à ce risque à moyen terme : plus le crédit est élevé, plus le risque de crise augmente.

Nous estimons ensuite l’arbitrage qui s’impose aux décideurs et montrons qu’une politique monétaire ou macroprudentielle plus restrictive réduit le risque extrême pour le PIB au détriment de la stabilité macroéconomique en conditions normales. Ainsi, les décideurs préoccupés par le risque extrême pour le PIB choisiraient de mener une politique plus restrictive que l’indiquent les modèles de prévisions macroéconomiques traditionnels. Comme notre cadre se veut pratique, il permet d’intégrer le risque de crise aux prévisions macroéconomiques qui en font habituellement abstraction et donne aux décideurs un outil pour communiquer efficacement les arbitrages auxquels ils sont confrontés.

description: Utilizing rich data on nearly 11,000 educators over 17 academic years in a highly diverse context, we examine the career paths of teachers to determine whether and when they transition into the principalship. We utilize a variety of event history analyses, including discrete-time hazard modeling, to determine how an individual’s race, gender, and their combination—among other characteristics—contribute to their likelihood of making this transition. We found that inequitable pathways to the principalship are not explained by systematic differences in personal and contextual characteristics along lines of race and gender but rather that the selection of school leaders may be a process influenced by systemic bias.
