description: This paper focuses on the estimation of changes in economic welfare (real income) on different groups (income deciles) of Hungarian and Romanian consumers following food price changes as a result of accession to the European Union (EU) in 2004 and 2007. It identifies in both countries those consumer groups most vulnerable to food price changes using the most recent, official, post accession data. Slutsky Compensating Variation, based on Laspeyres indexes is employed for a food basket of 16 products. The results show that real food prices have changed with some going up and others falling. However, overall both Hungary and Romania have experienced a rise in real food prices by 9 per cent and 20 per cent, respectively. The rise in food prices has resulted in a welfare loss for all income deciles, particularly for those in the lower income groups. Although, in absolute terms, Romanian food consumers seem to be more affected (the decrease in their real income varies between 4 per cent for decile 10 and 12 per cent for decile 1) than Hungarian consumers (0.4 per cent for decile 10 and 2.2 per cent for decile 1), the distribution of the impact is higher in Hungary, a five-fold difference between decile 1 and decile 10 as opposed to a three-fold difference in Romania.

description: We show that roton-like excitations are thermally induced in a two-dimensional dilute Bose gas as a consequence of the strong phase fluctuations in two dimensions. At low momentum, the roton-like excitations lead for small enough temperatures to an anomalous phonon spectrum with a temperature dependent exponent reminiscent of the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition. Despite the anomalous form of the energy spectrum, it is shown that the corresponding effective theory of vortices describes the usual Kosterlitz-Thouless transition. The possible existence of an anomalous normal state in a small temperature interval is also discussed.

description: The anharmonicity of the acoustic phonon dispersion of graphene has been studied by the harmonic linear response (HLR) approach at finite temperature. This is a non-perturbative method based on the linear response of the system to applied forces, as derived from equilibrium computer simulations. Anharmonic shifts are analyzed in the long-wavelength limit at room temperature, with emphasis in the effect of applied tensile or compressive in-plane stress. The simulation results are compared with available analytical models, based either on first-order perturbation theory or on a description by anomalous exponents. The simulations show better agreement to the expectations of the perturbational approach. The effect of temperature and zero-point vibrations on the acoustic out-of-plane anharmonic shifts of graphene are briefly reviewed.

description: We study the escape fraction of ionizing photons (f_esc) in two cosmological zoom-in simulations of galaxies in the reionization era with halo mass M_halo~10^10 and 10^11 M_sun (stellar mass M*~10^7 and 10^9 M_sun) at z=5 from the Feedback in Realistic Environments project. These simulations explicitly resolve the formation of proto-globular clusters (GCs) self-consistently, where 17-39% of stars form in bound clusters during starbursts. Using post-processing Monte Carlo radiative transfer calculations of ionizing radiation, we compute f_esc from cluster stars and non-cluster stars formed during a starburst over ~100 Myr in each galaxy. We find that the averaged f_esc over the lifetime of a star particle follows a similar distribution for cluster stars and non-cluster stars. Clusters tend to have low f_esc in the first few Myrs, presumably because they form preferentially in more extreme environments with high optical depths; the f_esc increases later as feedback starts to disrupt the natal cloud. On the other hand, non-cluster stars formed between cluster complexes or in the compressed shell at the front of a superbubble can also have high f_esc. We find that cluster stars on average have comparable f_esc to non-cluster stars. This result is robust across several star formation models in our simulations. Our results suggest that the fraction of ionizing photons from proto-GCs to cosmic reionization is comparable to the cluster formation efficiency in high-redshift galaxies and hence proto-GCs likely contribute an appreciable fraction of photons but are not the dominant sources for reionization.

description: The project ‘Coalition to Diversify Income through Underused Crops’ (CoDI) operates in Vietnam and India since 2008. The project supports local communities in the production, processing and marketing of neglected crops – local grains, fruits and vegetables. Those varieties have close relation with local territory. An evaluation of the situation of previous activities in India and Vietnam showed that the key weaknesses were: • Demonstrations were not enough and too far away and too far apart. • Post-harvest handling and processing methods suggested were too complicated. • No financial support was provided. • Not enough training courses were offered and access to information was limited. The main question was how to help farmers to produce indigenous species on a larger scale in a localized area for a marketing purpose. The CoDI project has chosen the Innovation System Approach to realize action-research for development with four main activities, owned and managed by the communities: 1. Food Processing Parks (FPPs), to which people are coming for training, information and business development services, processing, grading and other post-harvest activities and for wider support on available market opportunities, credit advice and links to other value chain actors at local, national and international levels. 2. Village Crop Fairs, during which local fruits and plants are being evaluated and the best ones selected by the communities. 3. Community Germplasm Orchards (nurseries), which then receive planting material from the selected lines for further propagation and which also serve as training grounds for plant propagation and nursery management skills. 4. Annual Knowledge Fairs, to communicate and discuss the experience with wider stakeholders from the public and private sector. The coalition builds upon in-depth experience of each of the partners in Vietnam on making markets work for the poor by facilitating links between rural cooperatives and urban quality distribution, focusing on women farmers who form the majority of vegetable and traditional crops producers, in an increasing urban environment where many men move to the towns for off-farm employment.
Non-adiabatic oscillation calculations in rapidly rotating stars

Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Asteroseismology
subject: stellar-rotation

description: When calculating pulsation modes, non-adiabatic effects are important for several reasons. Indeed, they enable us to predict which modes are excited via opacity mechanisms or other effects. They also play an important role when calculating mode visibilities in different photometric bands thus affecting mode-identification schemes based on amplitude ratios and phase differences. In this presentation, we will focus on the effects of rotation on non-adiabatic effects in stellar pulsations. We will investigate the impact of rotation on mode excitation, and the reasons why particular members within pulsation multiplets are damped before others. Preliminary results on excitation domains for beta Cep stars and similar stars will also be presented.
Raising rivals’ costs strategy: test on two LAFS in Europe

subject: regulation

description: Some Localised Agro-Food Systems (LAFS) are traditionally qualified as success stories (Comté PDO in France, Gruyere PDO in Switzerland, Parmigiano Reggiano PDO in Italy), whilst other PDOs (as for example the Cantal PDO from France) pay the same price for the milk as standard milk. The price difference may reach between 10 and 25% over a long period. To explain this difference, we assume that the agents who make up the LAFS developed a collective action to protect their localized cheese production system against unfair competition and to promote their product outside its region of origin. The aim of this communication is to shed light on levers which the agents activate to assure their uniqueness is irrevocable, and uphold the benefits of their LAFS. We propose to discuss the idea that the search for market power based on the strategy of raising rivals’ costs may be used even outside a situation of vertical integration or a situation in which pressure is applied to suppliers to challenge competitors. We assume that some companies within the LAFS have sufficient control on the rules governing the organization of the traditional system to benefit from it. They also succeed in protecting a kind of relationship between business companies. The Raising Rivals’ Costs theory helps to analyze the economic consequences of the legal set-up implementation and of its control by some companies. Indeed, we show that the collective control of the rules which are set up in the PDO legal framework explain the difficulties met by rivals to stand out through an alternative and independent production system based on the costs leadership strategy. The collective set up of institutions and rules help the agents to achieve a collective competitive advantage in which every agent benefits individually. This is the strategy developed in Europe and particularly for two PDO Localised Agro-cheese Systems: Comté PDO for France and Gruyère PDO for Switzerland.
Twisted mass chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)

description: We study the properties of pions in twisted mass lattice QCD (with two degenerate flavors) using chiral perturbation theory (ChPT). We work to next-to-leading order (NLO) in a power counting scheme in which m_q ~ a Λ_QCD^2, with m_q the physical quark mass and a the lattice spacing. We argue that automatic O(a) improvement of physical quantities at maximal twist, which has been demonstrated in general if m_q >> a Λ_QCD^2, holds even if m_q ~ a Λ_QCD^2, as long as one uses an appropriate non-perturbative definition of the twist angle. We demonstrate this with explicit calculations, for arbitrary twist angle, of all pionic quantities that involve no more than a single pion in the initial and final states: masses, decay constants, form factors and condensates, as well as the differences between alternate definitions of twist angle. We also calculate the axial and pseudoscalar form factors of the pion, quantities which violate flavor and parity, and which vanish in the continuum limit. These are of interest because they are not automatically O(a) improved at maximal twist. They allow a determination of the unknown low energy constants introduced by discretization errors, and provide tests of the accuracy of ChPT at NLO. We extend our results into the regime where m_q ~ a^2 Λ_QCD^3, and argue in favor of a recent proposal that automatic O(a) improvement at maximal twist remains valid in this regime.

Enactive teaching in higher education : transforming academic participation and identiy through embodied learning
Creators: name: Hocking, William Brent
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Enactive Teaching in Higher Education is a narrative exploration of embodied teaching in the university classroom based on the enactive view of cognition described by Francisco J. Varela, Evan Thompson, and Eleanor Rosch. On the surface, their philosophy is a heavily theoretical critique of epistemological dualism. More profoundly, it is an imaginative proposition for reinventing ourselves as human beings by acknowledging the participatory nature of perception, how reflection-as-experience implicates us in relationships that determine our most fundamental senses of identity. Enactive philosophy is pervasively ecological. It asks us to consider not only how body, mind, and spirit are interconnected, but how subjective senses of self are disrupted and transformed by interactions with other people. It is a view that extends Hannah Arendt's embrace of human togetherness. For this reason, enactive philosophy raises questions about what it means to be and become a dynamic, well-balanced educational participant. My curiosity is how enactive philosophy informs personal and collective senses of participation and identity in adult and higher education specifically. I focus this interest around two teaching-related questions: (a) What do embodied views of cognition reveal about adult learning and self-development? and (b) How do adults' embodied perceptions of themselves and others support holistic understandings of teaching? My inquiry draws on three data sources: (a) a critical literature analysis of embodied pedagogy, (b) a field study that documents perceptions of embodied teaching and learning in a graduate seminar, and (c) reflections on my journey as an elementary teacher preparing to become a university instructor. I present my findings thematically using narratives to bridge theory and practice. The themes offer a framework for enactive teaching. My senses of narrative, like my senses of teaching, are guided by enactive philosophy. The significance of this view is to trouble instrumental and prescriptive views of education while accentuating a connection between embodied knowing and pedagogies of possibility.

description: In this paper, we investigate the thermodynamics and weak cosmic censorship conjecture in a RN-AdS black hole with the cloud of strings and quintessence by the scattering of a scalar field. The variations of the thermodynamic variables are calculated in the normal and extended phase spaces. In the normal phase space, where the cosmological constant is considered as a constant, the first and second laws of thermodynamics are satisfied. In the extended phase space, where the cosmological constant and the parameters related to the cloud of strings and quintessence are treated as variables, the first law of thermodynamics is still satisfied and the second law of thermodynamics is indefinite. Moreover, we find that the weak cosmic censorship conjecture is valid for the extremal and near-extremal black holes in both phase spaces.

description: Our study examines the potential developments of cultural landscapes, taking into consideration various economic and social conditions (scenarios). The study takes place in three project regions which represent typical landscapes in Southern Germany and Austria. In each project area, the influence of a changing agri-food environment is analysed. The following scenarios are defined: (1) status quo (current economic and agri-political framework); (2) high-producer prices and constant (or even increasing) direct payments; and (3) low-producer prices and no (or very low) direct payments. In all three regions, potential production responses are estimated for all farms and aggregated on a regional level. The estimation takes into account social and economic parameters such as cash flow, size and type of farms, age of farmers and workload. The results show that the impact of the changing agro-economic environment differs in particular on the level of the study regions. Due to a lack of production alternatives, agricultural production in grassland areas is very unstable – especially if site conditions are unfavourable and economic conditions are disadvantageous. As a result, large-scale abandonment of agriculture is likely in low-yield grassland areas and consequences for landscape appearance might be dramatic. In high-yield grassland areas, agriculture is much more stable. However, under very disadvantageous conditions the extent of farms giving-up production is as high as in marginal grassland regions. Nevertheless one cannot expect large-scale set aside, because remaining farmers use the possibility of growth and lease a considerable quantity of land In contrast to this, farm structure in the arable regions is stable due to a high potential of production alternatives. However, landscape appearance may also change dramatically in this region due to the increasing importance of maize.
Remarks to the Standard Theory of Neutrino Oscillations. Corrected Theory of Neutrino Oscillations

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: In the Standard theory of neutrino oscillations it is supposed that physical observed neutrino states $ν_{e}, ν_μ, ν_τ$ have no definite masses and that neutrinos are initially created as mixture of $ν_{1}, ν_{2}, ν_{3}$ neutrino states and that neutrino oscillations are the real ones even when neutrino masses are different. It is shown that these suppositions lead to violation of the law of energy and momentum conservation and then the neutrino states are unstable ones and they must disintegrate. Then the development of the standard theory of neutrino oscillations in the framework of particle physics is considered where the above mentioned shortcomings are absent and the oscillations of neutrino with equal masses are real ones and the oscillations of neutrino different masses are virtual ones. Expressions for probabilities of neutrino transitions (oscillations) in the correct theory are given.

Peak performances : cultural and autobiographical constructions of the Victorian female mountaineer
Creators: name: MacLachlan, Jill Marie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: In this study, I conduct a cultural analysis of a range of neglected English-language books, articles, lectures, drawings, paintings and photographs produced by three generations of nineteenth-century women mountaineers who climbed and published visual and verbal accounts of their mountain adventures within the context of Victorian Anglo-imperialism (1850-1914). The women whose works I analyse include British travellers: Mrs. Henry Warwick Cole, Mrs. Henry Freshfield, Elizabeth Tuckett, Frederica Plunket, and Elizabeth Le Blond; and American women Annie Peck and Fanny Bullock Workman. In an effort to help counter the reductive tendencies of existing sourcebooks about women travellers and mountaineers, I have attempted to situate these texts and images produced by women mountaineers within the literary, geographical, and historical-cultural moments of their production and circulation. In so doing, I have also sought: 1) to gain insight into some of the material, ideological, and discursive factors which may have impeded or facilitated Victorian women's ability to participate freely and equally in the male-dominated cultures of travel and mountaineering, and which also may have affected the ways in which they represented their public identities and their travels; 2) to explore how, in their books, articles, lantern slide lectures and publicity photos, individual female climbers exploited, negotiated around, or subverted these constraints in their attempts to publicly perform facets of their identities and their relationships to Victorian ideologies of gender, race, class, and sexuality.

description: In May 2019, the construction of the land and space planning system was officially launched. The Ministry of Natural Resources of the State Council issued the Notice on Comprehensively Implementing Land and Space Planning, which clearly requires all regions to comprehensively launch the land and space planning and puts forward specific work requirements[1]. Later, in order to guide the preparation and implementation of land and space planning, various technical standards were successively issued. The dual-assessment technical guidelines, land use classification standards, and the compilation guidelines for provincial, city and county planning were gradually submitted for review and trial implementation. In this context, there have been more and more planning theories and practical studies based on the background of land and space planning. For tourist service towns, how to protect the style and features of the towns under the land and space planning system and preserve the local characteristics is a problem that needs to be solved urgently [2].

description: One way to relate semiclassical string states and dual gauge theory states is to show the equivalence between their low-energy effective 2d actions. The gauge theory effective action, which is represented by an effective Landau-Lifshitz (LL) model, was previously found to match with the string theory world-sheet action up to the first two orders in the effective parameter $\tildeλ ={λ/ J^2}$, where $λ$ is the `t Hooft coupling and $J$ is the total $R$-charge. Here we address the question if quantizing the effective LL action reproduces the subleading 1/J corrections to the spin chain energies as well as the quantum corrections to the string energies. We demonstrate that this is indeed the case provided one chooses an appropriate regularization of the effective LL theory. Expanding near the BPS vacuum, we show that the quantum LL action gives the same 1/J corrections to energies of BMN states as found previously on the gauge theory and string theory sides. We also compute the subleading $1/J^2$ corrections and show that these too match with corrections computed from the Bethe ansatz. We also compare the results from the LL action with a more direct computation from the spin chain. We repeat the same computation for the $β$-deformed LL action and find that the quantum LL result is again equal to the 1/J correction computed from the $β$-deformed Bethe ansatz equations. We also quantize the LL action near the rotating circular and folded string solutions, generalizing the known gauge/string results for 1/J corrections to the classical energies. We emphasize the simplicity of this effective field theory approach as compared to the full quantum string computations.

description: Fault-tolerant schemes can use error correction to make a quantum computation arbitrarily ac- curate, provided that errors per physical component are smaller than a certain threshold and in- dependent of the computer size. However in current experiments, physical resource limitations like energy, volume or available bandwidth induce error rates that typically grow as the computer grows. Taking into account these constraints, we show that the amount of error correction can be opti- mized, leading to a maximum attainable computational accuracy. We find this maximum for generic situations where noise is scale-dependent. By inverting the logic, we provide experimenters with a tool to finding the minimum resources required to run an algorithm with a given computational accuracy. When combined with a full-stack quantum computing model, this provides the basis for energetic estimates of future large-scale quantum computers.

description: Graph structured data are ubiquitous data structures, used to model relationships between entities. Graphs have become an important foundation to represent interactions between users in social networks, items in recommender systems, and interactions between drugs in bioinformatics. The main research problems in these areas include node clustering, node classification and link prediction. Especially the link prediction task is in bioinformatics of special interest toward the identification and development of new uses of existing or abandoned drugs since drug development is currently very time consuming and expensive. In the context of knowledge graphs, link prediction is also of special interest to automatically complete missing information to derive further knowledge. Likewise, node classification is an important research focus in the context of knowledge graphs, e.g. to automatically classify new entities according to their class affiliation and to complete missing class affiliation for existing entities. In recent years, network embeddings are often trained for encoding the entities of graph structured data into a low-dimensional space whilst preserving the graph structure. Based on the trained embeddings, machine learning techniques are applied to address the main machine learning tasks, such as link prediction and node classification. In most of the published methods, like e.g. RDF2Vec, DeepWalk, node2vec and LINE, random walks procedures are used to efficiently explore diverse neighbourhoods and compute embeddings based on them. However, these methods develop their full potential only when the input graph is connected, otherwise the random walks are not sufficient to gather enough information about nodes in the neighborhoods, as not all nodes in the graph can be reached. In this work we address three types of problems: Link prediction on bipartite networks, link prediction on knowledge graphs and a semantic grouping of nodes and links in graphs. We use a stochastic factorization model to learn a target distribution over the graph structured data, allowing to predict unknown links and embed the nodes into a low-dimensional space whilst preserving the distribution of interactions within the graph. The embeddings are used in a following step to learn a function for predicting instance types and domain assertions using training data. Compared to the existing methods that use random walks, our approach is much more robust with respect to the connectivity of the graph structured data. Results show that the proposed method outperforms current state-of-the-art models in several studied graph structured data and sets a new baseline in link prediction on disconnected graph structured data and grouping of nodes and links.

description: Correlations in the hadron distributions produced in relativistic Au+Au collisions are studied in the discrete wavelet expansion method. The analysis is performed in the space of pseudorapidity (|eta| < 1) and azimuth (full 2 pi) in bins of transverse momentum (p_t) from 0.14 < p_t < 2.1 GeV/c. In peripheral Au+Au collisions a correlation structure ascribed to mini-jet fragmentation is observed. It evolves with collision centrality and p_t in a way not seen before which suggests strong dissipation of minijet fragmentation in the longitudinally-expanding medium.

Discovering exact, gauge-invariant, local energy-momentum conservation laws for the electromagnetic gyrokinetic system by high-order field theory on heterogeneous manifolds

description: Gyrokinetic theory is arguably the most important tool for numerical studies of transport physics in magnetized plasmas. However, exact local energy-momentum conservation law for the electromagnetic gyrokinetic system has not been found despite continuous effort. Without such a local conservation law, energy-momentum can be instantaneously transported across spacetime, which is unphysical and casts doubt on the validity of numerical simulations based on the gyrokinetic theory. Standard Noether's procedure for deriving conservation laws from corresponding symmetries does not apply to gyrokinetic systems because the gyrocenters and electromagnetic field reside on different manifolds. To overcome this difficulty, we developed a high-order field theory on heterogeneous manifolds for classical particle-field systems and apply it to derive exact local conservation laws, in particular the energy-momentum conservation law, for the electromagnetic gyrokinetic system. A weak Euler-Lagrange equation is established to replace the standard Euler-Lagrange equation for the particles. It is discovered that an induced weak Euler-Lagrange current enters the local conservation laws. And it is the new physics captured by the high-order field theory on heterogeneous manifolds.

description: We give a formulation of classical mechanics in the language of operators acting on a Hilbert space. The formulation given comes from a unitary irreducible representation of the Galilei group that is compatible with the basic postulates of classical mechanics, particularly the absence of an uncertainty principle between the position and momentum of a particle. It is shown that the theory exposed in the article contains the Koopman-von Neumann formalism of classical mechanics as a particular case.
Role of Catalyst Support and Regioselectivity of Molecular Adsorption on a Metal Oxide Surface: NO Reduction on Cu/γ-alumina

description: The role of catalyst support and regioselectivity of molecular adsorption on a metal oxide surface is investigated for the NO reduction on a Cu/γ-alumina heterogeneous catalyst. For the solid surface, computational models of the γ-alumina surface are constructed based on the Step-by-Step Hydrogen Termination (SSHT) approach. Dangling bonds, which appear by cutting the crystal structure of a model, are terminated stepwise with H atoms until the model has an appropriate energy gap. The obtained SSHT models exhibit the realistic infrared (IR) and ultraviolet-visible (UV/Vis) spectra. Vibronic coupling density (VCD), as a reactivity index, is employed to elucidate the regioselectivity of the Cu adsorption on the γ-alumina and that of the NO adsorption on the Cu/γ-alumina in place of the frontier orbital theory that could not provide clear results. We discovered that the highly dispersed Cu atoms are loaded on Lewis-basic O atoms, which is known as anchoring effect, located in the tetrahedral sites of the γ-alumina surface. The role of the γ-alumina support is to raise the frontier orbital of the Cu catalyst, which in turn gives rise to the electron back-donation from the Cu/γ-alumina to NO. In addition, the penetration of the VCD distribution of the Cu/γ-alumina into the γ-alumina support indicates that the excessive reaction energies dissipate into the support after the NO adsorption and reduction. In other words, the support plays the role of a heat bath. The NO reduction on the Cu/γ-alumina proceeds even in an oxidative atmosphere because the Cu-NO bond is strongly bounded compared to the Cu-O2 bond.

description: We compare three parametric techniques to approximate Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations via unidimensional and multidimensional problems. The linear programming technique is very efficient for unidimensional problems and offers a balance of speed and accuracy for multidimensional problems. A comparable projection technique is shown to be slow, but has stable accuracy, whereas a perturbation technique has the least accuracy although its speed suffers least from the curse of dimensionality. The linear programming technique is also shown to be suitable for problems in resource management, including applications to biosecurity and marine reserve design.

description: We use a time-dependent dynamical mean-field-hydrodynamic model to study the formation of fermionic bright solitons in a trapped degenerate Fermi gas mixed with a Bose-Einstein condensate in a quasi-one-dimensional cigar-shaped geometry. Due to a strong Pauli-blocking repulsion among spin-polarized fermions at short distances there cannot be bright fermionic solitons in the case of repulsive boson-fermion interactions. However, we demonstrate that stable bright fermionic solitons can be formed for a sufficiently attractive boson-fermion interaction in a boson-fermion mixture. We also consider the formation of fermionic solitons in the presence of a periodic axial optical-lattice potential. These solitons can be formed and studied in the laboratory with present technology.
