description: A szerződéses kapcsolatoknak egyre nagyobb jelentősége van a modern élelmiszer- gazdaságban. Az élelmiszer-gazdaság hatékony működéséhez szükséges, hogy a szerződő fe-lek betartsák szerződésben vállalt kötelességeiket. Az elméleti modellek különböző módon hangsúlyozzák a bíróságok szerepét a szerződések kikényszerítésében. A cikk a szerződések kikényszeríthetőségének problémáját vizsgálja a magyar élelmiszer-gazdaságban egy kérdőíves felmérés segítségével. Legfontosabb eredményeink a következők. A válaszadók egyöntetűen úgy vélték, hogy a szerződések bírósági úton történő kikényszerítése hosszú ideig tart és nagyon költséges. Ugyanakkor csak a cégek kis része fordult bírósághoz szerződések kikény-szerítésének a céljával. A beszállítók védelméről alkotott törvényt a cégek pozitívan fogadták, noha ennek hatékonyságáról megoszlik a véleményük. A termelő, a kisebb méretű és exportáló cégek nagyobb arányban jelezték a gazdasági válság negatív hatását, mint a feldolgozó, nagyméretű és hazai piacra termelő vállalatok. -------------------------------------------------- Contractual relationships play an increasingly important role in the modern food chain. The efficient working of the food chain requires the fulfilment of contracts between partners. Theoretical models emphasise different aspects of courts in contract enforcement. This article investigates the enforcement of contracts in the Hungarian food chain by means of a survey. Our main results are as follows. The majority of respondents believe that contract enforcement via the court is very time-consuming and costly. But a minority of firms goes to the court in order to enforce their contracts. Respondents evaluate positively the regulations, but they have some doubts about their efficiency. Producers and small exporter firms are more sensitive to the negative impact of the economic crisis than are large and domestic market oriented firms.

description: Shull et al. (1999) have asserted that the contribution of stars, relative to quasars, to the metagalactic background radiation that ionizes most of the baryons in the universe remains almost completely unknown at all epochs. The potential to directly quantify this contribution at low redshift has recently become possible with the identification by GALEX of large numbers of sparsely distributed faint ultraviolet galaxies. Neither STIS nor FUSE nor GALEX have the ability to efficiently survey these sparse fields and directly measure the Lyman continuum radiation that may leak into the low redshift (z < 0.4) intergalactic medium. We present here a design for a new type of far ultraviolet spectrograph, one that is more sensitive, covers wider fields, and can provide spectra and images of a large number of objects simultaneously, called the Far-ultraviolet Off Rowland-circle Telescope for Imaging and Spectroscopy (FORTIS). We intend to use a sounding rocket flight to validate the new instrument with a simple long-slit observation of the starburst populations in the galaxy M83. If however, the long-slit were replaced with microshutter array, this design could isolate the chains of blue galaxies found by GALEX over an ~30' diameter field-of-view and directly address the Lyman continuum problem in a long duration orbital mission. Thus, our development of the sounding rocket instrument is a pathfinder to a new wide field spectroscopic technology for enabling the potential discovery of the long hypothesized but elusive Lyman continuum radiation that is thought to leak from low redshift galaxies and contribute to the ionization of the universe.

description: The nonlinear interaction of a time-harmonic acoustic wave with an anisotropic particle gives rise to the radiation force and torque effects. These phenomena are at the heart of the acoustofluidics technology, where microparticles such as cells and microorganisms are acoustically manipulated. We present a theoretical model considering a generic acoustic beam interacting with a subwavelength spheroidal particle in a nonviscous fluid. Concise analytical expressions of the radiation force and torque are obtained in the scattering dipole approximation. The radiation force is given in terms of a gradient and scattering force; while the radiation torque has two fundamental contributions, namely, the momentum arm and acoustic spin (spin-torque effect). As a practical example, we use the theory to describe the interaction of two crossed plane waves and a prolate spheroidal particle. The results reveal the particle is transversely trapped in a pressure node and is axially pushed by the radiation force. Also, the momentum arm aligns the particle in the axial direction. At certain specific positions, only the spin-torque occurs. Our findings are remarkably consistent with finite-element simulations. The success of our model enables its use as an investigation tool for the manipulation of anisotropic microparticles in acoustofluidics.

description: New expressions for the multipole moments of an isolated post-Newtonian source, in the form of surface integrals in the outer near-zone, are derived. As an application we compute the ``source'' quadrupole moment of a Schwarzschild solution boosted to uniform velocity, at the third post-Newtonian (3PN) order. We show that the consideration of this boosted Schwarzschild solution (BSS) is enough to uniquely determine one of the ambiguity parameters in the recent computation of the gravitational wave generation by compact binaries at 3PN order: zeta=-7/33. We argue that this value is the only one for which the Poincaré invariance of the 3PN wave generation formalism is realized. As a check, we confirm the value of zeta by a different method, based on the far-zone expansion of the BSS at fixed retarded time, and a calculation of the relevant non-linear multipole interactions in the external metric at the 3PN order.

description: Quantum computers can in principle solve certain problems exponentially more quickly than their classical counterparts. We have not yet reached the advent of useful quantum computation, but when we do, it will affect nearly all scientific disciplines. In this review, we examine how current quantum algorithms could revolutionize computational biology and bioinformatics. There are potential benefits across the entire field, from the ability to process vast amounts of information and run machine learning algorithms far more efficiently, to algorithms for quantum simulation that are poised to improve computational calculations in drug discovery, to quantum algorithms for optimization that may advance fields from protein structure prediction to network analysis. However, these exciting prospects are susceptible to "hype", and it is also important to recognize the caveats and challenges in this new technology. Our aim is to introduce the promise and limitations of emerging quantum computing technologies in the areas of computational molecular biology and bioinformatics.

description: A magyar mezőgazdasági termelés szervezeti, gazdálkodási formája igen sokszínű, a te-vékenység mérete és szerkezete változatos, az eredményesség változékony. Az Európai Unió tagállamainak többségétől is eltér az üzemstruktúrája. A tanulmány idősorosan vizsgálja a mezőgazdasági egyéni vállalkozók adóterhének alakulását 2000 és 2010 között, kitérve az adóalanyok számának, átlagos adóterhelésének alakulására. 2000-ben 16 647 fő, míg 2010-ben 13 155 fő mezőgazdasági egyéni vállalkozó teljesített szja-bevallást, közülük 2000-ben 43,1%, 2010-ben 52,4% vallott be nyereséget. A vizsgálat során statisztikai módszerekkel tártam fel összefüggéseket az adóterhek alakulása és a jogszabályi változások között. Az egyéni vállalkozók esetében a bevétel emelkedésének oka a minimálbér (mely járulékalapot megha-tározó tényező, és a vállalkozói kivétet is nagymértékben befolyásolja), a végrehajtott ellenőr-zések száma és a kivethető szankciók mértékének növekedése volt. Az egy főre vetített költ-ség az egyéni vállalkozóknál 82%-kal emelkedett a vizsgált időszakon belül. Az elemzésben az adóteher-változás, a változást kiváltó tényezők közötti összefüggések, kapcsolatok vizsgá-latára került sor. ----------------------------------------------- The organisation and farming methods of agricultural production in Hungary are very nowadays colourful, with a wide range of scales and structures, showing fluctuations in effi-ciency. Even their structure is different from those used by most member states of the Euro-pean Union. This study examines the evolution of the tax burden of agricultural entrepreneurs between 2000-2010, including the number of taxpayers and their average tax burden. The number of private agricultural entrepreneurs who filed an income tax return was 16,647 in 2000, and 13,155 in 2010. Of this number 43.1% (in 2000) and 52.4% (in 2012) declared a profit. Using statistical methods, my analysis showed a relationship between the evolution of tax burdens and the changes in tax laws. In the case of private entrepreneurs the reasons for the growth in income was the increase in the minimum wage (which determines the tax base and also influences the withdrawal of entrepreneurs), the growing number of tax audits and the increase in the extent of possible sanctions. Per capita expenses for private entrepreneurs rose by 82% over the examined period. The change in tax burdens and the relationships be-tween the factors causing the change were examined.
Discovery of a Primitive Damped Lyman alpha Absorber Near an X-ray Bright Galaxy Group in the Virgo Cluster

description: We present a new UV echelle spectrum of PG1216+069, obtained with HST+STIS, which reveals damped Lya (DLA) absorption as well as O I, C II, Si II, and Fe II absorption lines at z(abs) = 0.00632 near the NGC4261 group. The absorber shows no evidence of highly-ionized gas, which places constraints on "warm-hot" missing baryons in the NGC4261 group. The well-developed damping wings of the Lya line tightly constrain the H I column density; we find log N(H I) = 19.32+/-0.03. The metallicity of this sub-DLA is remarkably low, [O/H] = -1.60^{+0.09}_{-0.11}, which is comparable to many analogous high-redshift systems, and the iron abundance indicates that this absorber contains little or no dust. Nitrogen is underabundant; we detect neither N I or N II, and we show that this is not due to ionization effects but rather indicates that [N/O] < -0.28 (3sigma). Despite the proximity to NGC4261 group, there are no bright galaxies close to the sight line at the absorption redshift. The nearest known galaxy is a sub-L* galaxy with a projected distance rho = 86 kpc; the closest L* galaxy is NGC4260 at rho = 246 kpc. The low metallicity and [N/O] indicate that this low-z sub-DLA is a relatively primitive gas cloud. We consider the nature and origin of the sub-DLA, and we find several possibilities. The properties of the sub-DLA are similar to those of the interstellar media in blue compact dwarf galaxies and are also reminiscent of Milky Way HVCs. Or, the object could simply be a small dark-matter halo, self-enriched by a small amount of internal star formation but mostly undisturbed since its initial formation. In this case, the small halo would likely be an ancient building block of galaxy formation that formed before the epoch of reionization.

description: Excerpts from the report: Cooperatives engaged in processing fruits and vegetables use a wide variety of containers such as metal cans, glass bottles and jars, paperboard cartons, and plastic bags. Annual expenditures for these supplies are often one-third or more of total processing costs and equal to a fifth of the sales value of the products marketed. The principal objectives of this project were to: 1. Analyze and evaluate the present system used by cooperative marketing associations for purchasing, manufacturing, and transporting containers and packaging materials for fruits and vegetables. 2. Determine methods by which savings can be made or services improved in procuring container and packaging supplies.

description: Excerpt from the report: Between 1960 and 1965, more than a third of the estimated 600 frozen food locker cooperatives discontinued operations; some had closed their plants and others were still operating, but not as cooperatives. Frozen food locker cooperatives still operating must plan to change their operations to remain solvent. This study had two purposes: To determine what changes in operations occurred in a group of cooperatives that stayed in business, and to assess the characteristics common to the firms that discontinued cooperative locker plant operation.

description: Nova explosions occur on the white dwarf (WD) component of a Cataclysmic Variable stellar system which is accreting matter lost by a companion. A Type Ia supernova explosion is thought to result when a WD, in a similar binary configuration, grows in mass to the Chandrasekhar Limit. Here, we present calculations of accretion of Solar matter, at a variety of mass accretion rates, onto hot ($2.3 \times 10^{5}$K), luminous (30L$_\odot$), massive (1.25M$_\odot$, 1.35M$_\odot$) Carbon-Oxygen WDs. In contrast to our nova simulations where the WD has a low initial luminosity and a thermonuclear runaway (TNR) occurs and ejects material, these simulations do not eject material (or only a small fraction of the accreted material) and the WD grows in mass. A hydrogen TNR does not occur because hydrogen fuses to helium in the surface layers, and we call this process Surface Hydrogen Burning (SHB). As the helium layer grows in mass, it gradually fuses either to carbon and oxygen or to more massive nuclei depending on the WD mass and mass accretion rate. If such a WD were to explode in a SN Ia event, therefore, it would show neither hydrogen nor helium in its spectrum as is observed. Moreover, the luminosities and effective temperatures of our simulations agree with the observations of some of the Super Soft X-ray Binary Sources and, therefore, our results strengthen previous speculation that some of them (CAL 83 and CAL 87 for example) are probably progenitors of SN Ia explosions. Finally, we have achieved SHB for values of the mass accretion rate that almost span the observed values of the Cataclysmic Variables.

description: This preliminary investigation addresses the discovery of an unidentified crater located south of the Sahara Desert between Qaret Had El Bahr and Qaret El Allafa, Egypt. The unidentified crater (hereafter tentatively named El Bahr Crater) was discovered during a terrain analysis of the Sahara Desert. El Bahr Crater is located Southwest Al-Jiza Giza and is approximately 327 meters across, has a rim with a circumference of approximately 1,027 meters, and occupies a surface area of approximately 83,981 square meters. Preliminary spectral and topographic analysis reveal features characteristic of an impact crater produced by a hypervelocity event of extraterrestrial origin, including a bowl-shaped rim and a crater wall. No proximal and/or distal ejecta, however, are visible from Landsat imagery. Moreover, the geomorphic features, along with the fact that the El Bahr basalts are known to be rich in orthopyroxene while the surrounding basalts are not, imply an impact as the most plausible explanation. The El Bahr Crater is not indexed in the Earth Impact Database, and an analysis of impact structures in Africa did not identify it as either a confirmed, proposed or disproved impact crater. In collaboration with the University of Cairo, therefore, an expedition has been organized to conduct an in-situ investigation of El Bahr Crater, to ascertain if planar formations, shatter cones, and shock metamorphic and or other meteoritic properties are present.

A comparison of Pan and zoom and rubber sheet navigation
Creators: name: Nekrasovski, Dmitry
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: As information visualization tools arc used lo visualize datasets of increasing size, there is a growing need for techniques that facilitate efficient navigation. Pan and zoom navigation enables users to display areas of interest at different resolutions. Fbcus+contexl techniques aim to overcome the drawbacks of pan and zoom by dynamically integrating areas of interest and context regions. To date, empirical comparisons of these two navigat ion paradigms have been limited in scope and inconclusive. In two controlled studies, we evaluated navigation techniques representative of the pan and zoom and focus (-context approaches, 'the particular focus-(- context technique examined was rubber sheet navigation, implemented in a way that afforded a set of navigation actions similar to pan and zoom navigation. The two techniques were used by 10 subjects in each study to perform a navigation-intensive task in a large tree dataset. Study 1 investigated the effect of the amount of screen real estate devoted to context regions for each navigation technique. Performance with both techniques was not significantly affected by this factor, but was influenced by technique-specific strategies developed by subjects. Study 2 compared the performance of the two techniques. Pan and zoom navigation was found to be faster than rubber sheet navigation and was rated by subjects as easier and less mentally demanding. We discuss the implications of these results, including the relationship between navigation technique, task, and user strategy, and propose directions for fulure work.
Moderate deviation and exit time estimates for stationary Last Passage Percolation

description: We consider planar stationary exponential Last Passage Percolation in the positive quadrant with boundary weights. For $ρ\in (0,1)$ and points $v_N=((1-ρ)^2 N,ρ^2 N)$ going to infinity along the characteristic direction, we establish right tail estimates with the optimal exponent for the exit time of the geodesic, along with optimal exponent estimates for the upper tail moderate deviations for the passage time. For the case $ρ=\frac{1}{2}$ in the stationary model, we establish the lower bound estimate with the optimal exponent for the lower tail of the passage time. Our arguments are based on moderate deviation estimates for point-to-point and point-to-line exponential Last Passage Percolation which are obtained via random matrix estimates.

description: The observed flavor structure of the standard model arises naturally in "split fermion" models which localize fermions at different places in an extra dimension. It has, until now, been assumed that the bulk masses for such fermions can be chosen to be flavor diagonal simultaneously at every point in the extra dimension, with all the flavor violation coming from the Yukawa couplings to the Higgs. We consider the more natural possibility in which the bulk masses cannot be simultaneously diagonalized, that is, that they are twisted in flavor space. We show that, in general, this does not disturb the natural generation of hierarchies in the flavor parameters. Moreover, it is conceivable that all the flavor mixing and CP-violation in the standard model may come only from twisting, with the five-dimensional Yukawa couplings taken to be universal.

D4.6: Meso– and multi–scale modelling E–CAM modules V
Creators: name: Sablić, Jurij
name: Et Al.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: In this report for Deliverable 4.6 of E-CAM, we present nine software modules in meso– and multi–scale modelling. The modules are divided into three groups. The first one contains three modules, incorporated within the DL_MESO_DPD simulation code: • Many-body DPD model on multi-GPU • Incorporation of Kokkos into the first integration step of the Velocity Verlet algorithm • Incorporation of Kokkos into the second integration step of the Velocity Verlet algorithm. With the latter two we improve the portability and computational efficiency of the code by offloading both steps of the Velocity Verlet integration scheme, while with the first module, we proceed with the development and optimisation of multi-GPU architectures of the code. The ongoing development of the code within the scope of E-CAM has previously been reported in five deliverables on meso– and multi–scale modelling. The second group of modules concerns further development and application of A Load-balancing Library (ALL), which was first reported in previous version of this deliverable (D4.5). It consists of four modules: • ALL C++ interface • ALL Fortran interface • ALL library inMaterial PointMethod • ALL library in HemeLB workflow In the first two we present interfaces that enable the usage of the library in C/C++ and Fortran-based codes. In the last two, on the other hand, we report on the incorporation of the library into two simulation packages, where ALL contributes to the computational optimisation in studies of deformations of continuous media as well as of blood flow. The last group of modules provides additional features in the Lattice–Boltzmann code Ludwig: • Externally imposed chemical potential gradient for binary fluid mixture • Implementation of crystalline capillaries. The first one is used in the studies of diffusiophoretic and diffusioosmotic phenomena in binary fluid flows through different capillaries. The crystalline ones are introduced into Ludwig by the last module of this group. For each module, we provide an explanation about its implementation, usage, and the motivation for its development. The description is accompanied by a link to the respective Merge-Request on the GitLab repository of E-CAM, where we provide further information about the code development, testing and documentation of the modules. As this deliverable is the last one of its series, a section on the overall impact of the results achieved within the E-CAM Work Package meso– and multi–scale modelling is also included.

description: We study the Euler scheme for a stochastic differential equation driven by a Levy process Y. More precisely, we look at the asymptotic behavior of the normalized error process u_n(X^n-X), where X is the true solution and X^n is its Euler approximation with stepsize 1/n, and u_n is an appropriate rate going to infinity: if the normalized error processes converge, or are at least tight, we say that the sequence (u_n) is a rate, which, in addition, is sharp when the limiting process (or processes) is not trivial. We suppose that Y has no Gaussian part (otherwise a rate is known to be u_n=\sqrt n). Then rates are given in terms of the concentration of the Levy measure of Y around 0 and, further, we prove the convergence of the sequence u_n(X^n-X) to a nontrivial limit under some further assumptions, which cover all stable processes and a lot of other Levy processes whose Levy measure behave like a stable Levy measure near the origin. For example, when Y is a symmetric stable process with index α\in(0,2), a sharp rate is u_n=(n/\log n)^{1/α}; when Y is stable but not symmetric, the rate is again u_n=(n/\log n)^{1/α} when α>1, but it becomes u_n=n/(\log n)^2 if α=1 and u_n=n if α<1.

The application of the permutation test on genome wide expression analysis

description: We are now in a new era. The recent completion of the entire sequence of the human genome and high-throughput gene expression technologies has transformed the era of molecular biology to the era of genomics. Already, such technologies are showing great promise in disease classification and gene targets. However, like any new exciting technology, great promise and anticipation can lead to wasted resources and false hope. It is critical that we recognize the experimental limitations of these new technologies and most importantly, hidden problems must be addressed. The primary goal of a high-throughput gene expression experiment is to identify genes of interest that are differentially expressed between two sample groups. This thesis addresses two key issues that have hindered high-throughput gene expression technologies. The first is the sample size issue. Small sample sizes affect statistical confidence and are much more sensitive to outliers. Thus, we show that by using a nonparametric statistical test known as the permutation test, we can achieve higher accuracy than conventional parametric statistical tests such as the t-test. The second issue we address is the use of housekeeping genes for normalization of mRNA levels. It is well known that many biological experiments require a set of reference genes that are highly expressed and constant from sample to sample. The choice of reference genes is critical as the wrong choice can have dire effects on subsequent analyses. To address this issue, we developed a methodology based on SAGE, which is a genome wide expression technology that does not require normalization. Our results suggest that reference genes chosen by our methodology are more appropriate for mRNA normalization than the standard set of housekeeping genes. Furthermore, our results suggest that reference genes are more effective if chosen in a tissue-specific manner.

The CO universe: Modelling CO emission and H$_{\rm 2}$ abundance in cosmological galaxy formation simulations

description: We devise a physical model of formation and distribution of molecular gas clouds in galaxies. We use the model to predict the intensities of rotational transition lines of carbon monoxide (CO) and the molecular hydrogen (H$_{\rm 2}$) abundance. Using the outputs of Illustris-TNG cosmological simulations, we populate molecular gas clouds of unresolved sizes in individual simulated galaxies, where the effect of the interstellar radiation field with dust attenuation is also taken into account. We then use the publicly available code DESPOTIC to compute the CO line luminosities and H$_{\rm 2}$ densities without assuming the CO-to-H$_{\rm 2}$ conversion factor ($α_{\rm CO}$). Our method allows us to study the spatial and kinematic structures traced by CO(1-0) and higher transition lines. We compare the CO luminosities and H$_{\rm 2}$ masses with recent observations of galaxies at low and high redshifts. Our model reproduces well the observed CO-luminosity function and the estimated H$_{\rm 2}$ mass in the local Universe. About ten per cent of molecules in the Universe reside in dwarf galaxies with stellar masses lower than $10^9~{\rm M_\odot}$, but the galaxies are generally `CO-dark' and have typically high $α_{\rm CO}$. Our model predicts generally lower CO line luminosities than observations at redshifts $z\gtrsim 1$--$2$. We argue that the difference can be explained by the highly turbulent structure suggested for the high-redshift star-forming galaxies.

description: We compare the predictions of two distinct dipole models for inclusive and exclusive diffractive processes. While only one of these dipole models contains perturbative saturation dynamics, we show that the predictions of both models are fully consistent with the available HERA data, indicating no compelling evidence for saturation at present HERA energies.

Revisiting Adversarially Learned Injection Attacks Against Recommender Systems

description: Recommender systems play an important role in modern information and e-commerce applications. While increasing research is dedicated to improving the relevance and diversity of the recommendations, the potential risks of state-of-the-art recommendation models are under-explored, that is, these models could be subject to attacks from malicious third parties, through injecting fake user interactions to achieve their purposes. This paper revisits the adversarially-learned injection attack problem, where the injected fake user `behaviors' are learned locally by the attackers with their own model -- one that is potentially different from the model under attack, but shares similar properties to allow attack transfer. We found that most existing works in literature suffer from two major limitations: (1) they do not solve the optimization problem precisely, making the attack less harmful than it could be, (2) they assume perfect knowledge for the attack, causing the lack of understanding for realistic attack capabilities. We demonstrate that the exact solution for generating fake users as an optimization problem could lead to a much larger impact. Our experiments on a real-world dataset reveal important properties of the attack, including attack transferability and its limitations. These findings can inspire useful defensive methods against this possible existing attack.

Chandra measurement of the X-ray spectrum of a quasar at z=5.99

description: We report the first measurement of the X-ray spectrum of the z = 5.99 quasar SDSSp J130608.26+035626.3 from a 120 ks observation by the Chandra ACIS-S instrument. Between 0.5 and 7 keV, corresponding to 3.5--49 keV in the quasar rest frame, we find an energy index of 0.86 +/- 0.2, consistent with the typical indices found for radio quiet quasars at lower redshifts, and inconsistent with the index required to match the diffuse X-ray background. We have a weak indication of a redshifted Fe-K line. In comparing the counting rate between an earlier, short observation and the longer observation reported here, we find evidence for source variability at the 99.9% confidence level. We note that other nearby X-ray sources would bias the measured alpha_{ox} = 1.70 by -0.09 if the X-ray flux were determined from within a 60" extraction circle. Our results for the energy index and the alpha_{ox} are consistent with no strong evolution in the active galactic nucleus emission mechanism with redshift out to z ~ 6, and therefore with the picture that massive black holes have already formed less than 1 Gyr after the big bang.

description: In order to measure the impact of milk imports upon some macroeconomic variables such as imported quantity and price, domestic price, real gross domestic product (GDP) and exchange rate we specify an econometric model for the import demand for the period january 1991 to december 2003. We implement the model using time series fra- mework. We also analyse the market for milk imports through “back to back”graphic approach. Furthemore we also use te excess demand equa- tion to define the demand for milk imports.

description: Quantum discord is significant in analyzing quantum nonclassicality beyond the paradigm of entanglement. Presently we have explored the effectiveness of global unitary operations in manifesting quantum discord from a general two qubit zero discord state. Apart from the emergence of some obvious concepts such as absolute classical-quantum, absolute quantum-classical states, more interestingly, it is observed that set of states characterized by absoluteness contains only maximally mixed state. Consequently this marks the peak of effectiveness of global unitary operations in purview of manifesting nonclassicality from arbitrary two qubit state when other standard methods fail to do so. Set of effective global unitaries has been provided in this context. Our observations have direct implications in remote state preparation task.

description: The spatial distribution of the railway crossings on the river Danube in Hungary is very uneven. There is only one electrified and double-tracked bridge in the country, the Southern Railway Bridge in Budapest. The Újpest bridge in Budapest only provides connection through line 4 which is not electrified and the Baja bridge is not electrified, too, and both of them are single-tracked. The long-planned V0 railway line that is to be cross the Danube approximately halfway between Budapest and Baja would not only help to redistribute the total network flow which currently passes through almost exclusively the Southern bridge but would also provide redundancy for the existing bridges in the case of their disruption. Four of the five proposed V0 path alternatives are analyzed on the basis of these two network properties.

description: This paper aims to evaluate the effects of additional tariff quotas on some Brazilian agricultural exports. The study focuses on the European offer in the negotiations for a Mercosur-European Union free trade agreement in May 2004. The economic analysis of the tariff quota shows that – given the demand curve – only one of the three components (the volume and the intra and extra tariffs rates) will effectively pose a restriction to the imports. So, the concession of an additional quota does not necessarily imply an equivalent increase in exports. In the es-timation of the gains, one must consider the change in the quota rent. Besides the administration of the quota systems will play crucial role on the allocation of the quota rent. If Mercosur gets in charge, the estimates indicate an addition of US$ 728 million in exports, of which US$ 525 million result from the appropriation of the quota rents and US$ 476 million from exports. The sum of both is indeed close to the value of the additional quotas at current prices. If the administration goes to the EU, the gains will derive exclusively from the expansion in exports, which corresponds to 63.7% to the value of the quota.
