title: Essays in macro and development economics
Creators: name: Nigmatulina, Dzhamilya
Publisher: name: London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
Year: 2021

description: This thesis studies the economics of firms, neighbourhoods, cities and regions in developing countries. It combines empirical and structural methods using satellite, administrative and survey data to study allocative efficiency, the economics of cities and urban planning in developing countries. The thesis is organised into four independent chapters. The first chapter studies the extent of misallocation among firms in Russia, and the role of state ownership in affecting allocative efficiency. I find that there are large wedges between state-owned and private firms reducing the aggregate TFP by at least 11%. Using a unique natural experiment of staggered firm-level US sanctions I find one channel through which resources become misallocated: the state-owned enterprises are shielded excessively from negative economic shocks. I find that allocative efficiency worsened after the sanctions episode and the Russian TFP dropped at least by 0.33% overall, reaching -3% in some sectors as a combined effect of sanctions and shielding. The second chapter explores new data methods and GIS tools for use in urban and spatial economics. It discusses the strengths and challenges in the application of novel datasets, such as satellite imagery, gridded population and develops methods that effectively apply these datasets to economic research questions. The third chapter (co-authored) explores the long-run consequences of planning and providing basic infrastructure in neighbourhoods, where people build their own homes. Using satellite images and surveys from the 2010s, we find that de novo planning induces neighbourhoods to develop better housing, with larger footprint areas, more stories, more connections to electricity and water, basic sanitation and access to roads. This effect remains even after accounting for selection of financially unconstrained owners into planned areas. The fourth chapter (co-authored) estimates urban agglomeration effects, exploring both simple and very nuanced measures of economic density to explain household income and wage differences across cities in six Sub-Saharan African countries. Defining cities consistently, we find large wage gains to being in denser cities in Sub-Saharan Africa, which are generally larger than such estimates for other parts of the world. We also find extraordinary household income gains to density that are far greater than wage ones. Such gains are consistent with the pull forces driving rapid urbanization in the region.

We study the evolution of the photometric and structural scaling relations found between the parameters of the surface brightness profiles in the rest-frame R-band of Type-III S0 galaxies with z and the possible differences between the rest-frame (B-R) colours of the inner and outer disc profiles. We make use of a sample of 14 Type-III E/S0--S0 galaxies at 0.2

description: We solve exactly the "boundary sine-Gordon" system of a massless scalar field ϕwith a \cos[βϕ/2] potential at a boundary. This model has appeared in several contexts, including tunneling between quantum-Hall edge states and in dissipative quantum mechanics. For β^2 < 8π, this system exhibits a boundary renormalization-group flow from Neumann to Dirichlet boundary conditions. By taking the massless limit of the sine-Gordon model with boundary potential, we find the exact S matrix for particles scattering off the boundary. Using the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz, we calculate the boundary entropy along the entire flow. We show how these particles correspond to wave packets in the classical Klein-Gordon equation, thus giving a more precise explanation of scattering in a massless theory.

description: We study the complexity of ontology-mediated querying when ontologies are formulated in the guarded fragment of first-order logic (GF). Our general aim is to classify the data complexity on the level of ontologies where query evaluation w.r.t. an ontology O is considered to be in PTime if all (unions of conjunctive) queries can be evaluated in PTime w.r.t. O and coNP-hard if at least one query is coNP-hard w.r.t. O. We identify several large and relevant fragments of GF that enjoy a dichotomy between PTime and coNP, some of them additionally admitting a form of counting. In fact, almost all ontologies in the BioPortal repository fall into these fragments or can easily be rewritten to do so. We then establish a variation of Ladner's Theorem on the existence of NP-intermediate problems and use this result to show that for other fragments, there is provably no such dichotomy. Again for other fragments (such as full GF), establishing a dichotomy implies the Feder-Vardi conjecture on the complexity of constraint satisfaction problems. We also link these results to Datalog-rewritability and study the decidability of whether a given ontology enjoys PTime query evaluation, presenting both positive and negative results.
Non-Abelian Strong-Weak Coupling Duality in (String-Derived) N=4 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theories

description: We study strong-weak coupling duality (S-duality) in N=4 supersymmetric non-Abelian Yang-Mills theories. These theories arise naturally as the low-energy limit of four-dimensional toroidal compactifications of the heterotic string. Firstly, we define the free energy in the presence of electric and magnetic fluxes using 't Hooft's prescription, i.e. through functional integrals at finite volume in the presence of twisted boundary conditions. Then, we compute those free energies in two limiting cases: small and large coupling constant. Finally, we extend the free-energies to all values of the coupling constant (and the theta angle) by presenting a fully S-duality invariant ansatz. This ansatz obeys all relevant consistency conditions; in particular, it obeys 't Hooft duality equations and Witten's magnetic-electric transmutation. The existence of an S-duality invariant, consistent definition of free energies supports the claim made in the literature that S-duality is a duality symmetry of N=4 SUSY Yang-Mills. Our ansatz also suggests that N=4, irrespective of whether partially broken or not, is in a self-dual phase: no phase transitions occur between the strong and weak coupling regimes.

description: The experimental setup and results of the first search for invisible decays of ortho-positronium (o-Ps) confined in a vacuum cavity are reported. No evidence of invisible decays at a level $\text{Br}\left(\text{o-Ps}\to\text{invisible}\right) < 5.9\times 10^{-4}$ (90% C. L.) was found. This decay channel is predicted in Hidden Sector models such as the Mirror Matter (MM), which could be a candidate for Dark Matter. Analyzed within the MM context, this result provides an upper limit on the kinetic mixing strength between ordinary and mirror photons of $ε< 3.1 \times 10^{-7}$ (90% C. L.). This limit was obtained for the first time in vacuum free of systematic effects due to collisions with matter.

A modified formulation of quasi-linear viscoelasticity for transversely isotropic materials under finite deformation

description: The theory of quasi-linear viscoelasticity (QLV) is modified and developed for transversely isotropic (TI) materials under finite deformation. For the first time, distinct relaxation responses are incorporated into an integral formulation of nonlinear viscoelasticity, according to the physical mode of deformation. The theory is consistent with linear viscoelasticity in the small strain limit and makes use of relaxation functions that can be determined from small-strain experiments, given the time/deformation separability assumption. After considering the general constitutive form applicable to compressible materials, attention is restricted to incompressible media. This enables a compact form for the constitutive relation to be derived, which is used to illustrate the behaviour of the model under three key deformations: uniaxial extension, transverse shear and longitudinal shear. Finally, it is demonstrated that the Poynting effect is present in transversely isotropic, neo-Hookean, modified QLV materials under transverse shear, in contrast to neo-Hookean elastic materials subjected to the same deformation. Its presence is explained by the anisotropic relaxation response of the medium.

description: It is possible to extract values for critical couplings and gamma_string in matrix models by deriving a renormalization group equation for the variation of the of the free energy as the size N of the matrices in the theory is varied. In this paper we derive a ``renormalization group equation'' for the Penner model by direct differentiation of the partition function and show that it reproduces the correct values of the critical coupling and gamma_string and is consistent with the logarithmic corrections present for g=0,1.

description: Nowadays the more powerful method to detect extrasolar planets is the transit method. We review the planet transits which were anticipated, searched, and the first ones which were observed all through history. Indeed transits of planets in front of their star were first investigated and studied in the solar system. The first observations of sunspots were sometimes mistaken for transits of unknown planets. The first scientific observation and study of a transit in the solar system was the observation of Mercury transit by Pierre Gassendi in 1631. Because observations of Venus transits could give a way to determine the distance Sun-Earth, transits of Venus were overwhelmingly observed. Some objects which actually do not exist were searched by their hypothetical transits on the Sun, as some examples a Venus satellite and an infra-mercurial planet. We evoke the possibly first use of the hypothesis of an exoplanet transit to explain some periodic variations of the luminosity of a star, namely the star Algol, during the eighteen century. Then we review the predictions of detection of exoplanets by their transits, those predictions being sometimes ancient, and made by astronomers as well as popular science writers. However, these very interesting predictions were never published in peer-reviewed journals specialized in astronomical discoveries and results. A possible transit of the planet beta Pic b was observed in 1981. Shall we see another transit expected for the same planet during 2018? Today, some studies of transits which are connected to hypothetical extraterrestrial civilisations are published in astronomical refereed journals. Some studies which would be classified not long ago as science fiction are now considered as scientific ones.

Geometric Josephson effects in chiral topological nanowires

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: One of the salient signatures of Majorana zero modes and topological superconductivity is a $4π$-periodic Josephson effect due to the combination of fermion parity conservation and the presence of a topologically protected odd number of zero energy crossings in the Andreev spectrum. In this paper, we study this effect in Josephson junctions composed of two semiconducting nanowires with Rashba spin-orbit coupling and induced superconductivity from the proximity effect. For certain orientations of the external magnetic field, such junctions possess a chiral symmetry and we show how this symmetry allows the Andreev spectrum and the protected crossings to be shifted by introducing a relative angle between the two wires. The junction then displays a geometrically induced anomalous Josephson effect, the flow of a supercurrent in the absence of external phase bias. Furthermore, we derive a proportionality relation between the local current density and the local curvature for a single curved wire. This result can be viewed as a one-dimensional analogue of the recently proposed geo-Josephson effect [Kvorning et al., arXiv:1709.00482]. Our two proposed effects can in principle be used as signatures of topological superconductivity in one dimension.

description: On spaces of constant curvature, the geodesic equations automatically have higher order integrals, which are just built out of first order integrals, corresponding to the abundance of Killing vectors. This is no longer true for general conformally flat spaces, but in this case there is a large algebra of conformal symmetries. In this paper we use these conformal symmetries to build higher order integrals for the geodesic equations. We use this approach to give a new derivation of the Darboux-Koenigs metrics, which have only one Killing vector, but two quadratic integrals. We also consider the case of possessing one Killing vector and two cubic integrals. The approach allows the quantum analogue to be constructed in a simpler manner.

description: A prominent approach to implementing ontology-mediated queries (OMQs) is to rewrite into a first-order query, which is then executed using a conventional SQL database system. We consider the case where the ontology is formulated in the description logic EL and the actual query is a conjunctive query and show that rewritings of such OMQs can be efficiently computed in practice, in a sound and complete way. Our approach combines a reduction with a decomposed backwards chaining algorithm for OMQs that are based on the simpler atomic queries, also illuminating the relationship between first-order rewritings of OMQs based on conjunctive and on atomic queries. Experiments with real-world ontologies show promising results.
General Synthesis and New Applications of Dendralenes
Creators: name: George, Josemon
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2020

description: The objectives of the research work carried out and presented in this thesis are to develop a better understanding of chemical reactivity and to devise improved synthetic methods by following the principles of the 'ideal synthesis'. Described herein are three projects based on generating molecular complexity from commercially available, structurally simple starting materials in a step-, atom-economical fashion. Dendralenes, which are acyclic, cross-conjugated hydrocarbons, provide the focus of this research. Dendralenes are important building blocks in synthetic organic chemistry as they undergo diene transmissive Diels-Alder (DTDA) reaction sequences with a range of dienophiles to generate all carbon and heteroatom-containing multi-cyclic complex frameworks. Chapter 1 provides an overall introduction to subsequent chapters of this thesis. Chapter 2 outlines the first general synthetic route to substituted [3]dendralenes, via twofold Negishi cross-couplings of dibromomethylenes with alkenyl zinc reagents. The requisite dibromomethylenes are synthesised from the corresponding aldehydes using the Ramirez dibromomethylenation reaction. We report herein subsequently the first stereoselective synthesis of substituted dendralenes by a catalyst-controlled sequential twofold Negishi cross-coupling of dibromomethylenes with different nucleophilic coupling partners. This strategy makes it possible to synthesise both geometrical isomers of substituted [3]dendralenes. The versatility of these compounds in further chemistry is highlighted by their use in both DTDA cycloaddition sequences and domino 6pi-electrocyclisation sequences. Chapter 3 explores the Diels-Alder reactions between substituted [3]dendralenes and in situ generated benzynes as dienophiles to generate 2-vinyl-1,4-dihydronaphthalenes. Both substituted and unsubstituted benzynes were found to react well with substituted [3]dendralenes. The products of the first Diels-Alder reaction were shown to react with different dienophiles to generate aromatic-ring-containing, multicyclic complex molecules. The DTDA reaction sequences can be performed in one pot, avoiding work up and purification of the intermediate semicyclic diene. It is also shown that this chemistry can be utilised to rapidly generate the tetracyclic framework of 7-arylangucyclines, a new "hybrid drug" structure. Chapter 4 investigates the organocatalysed, enantioselective Diels-Alder reactions of substituted [3]dendralenes. A high level of regio-, diastereo- and enantioselectivity was observed. The substrate-controlled second Diels-Alder reaction on these enantioenriched substrates was also performed to obtain enantiopure, complex polycyclic compounds.

description: The effective potential for a dynamical Wick field (dynamical signature) induced by the quantum effects of massive fields on a topologically non-trivial $D$ dimensional background is considered. It is shown that when the radius of the compactified dimension is very small compared with $Λ^{1/2}$ (where $Λ$ is a proper-time cutoff), a flat metric with Lorentzian signature is preferred on ${\bf R}^4 \times {\bf S}^1$. When the compactification radius becomes larger a careful analysis of the 1-loop effective potential indicates that a Lorentzian signature is preferred in both $D=6$ and $D=4$ and that these results are relatively stable under metrical perturbations.

description: The number state method is used to study soliton bands for three anharmonic quantum lattices: i) The discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation, ii) The Ablowitz-Ladik system, and iii) A fermionic polaron model. Each of these systems is assumed to have $f$-fold translational symmetry in one spatial dimension, where $f$ is the number of freedoms (lattice points). At the second quantum level $(n=2)$ we calculate exact eigenfunctions and energies of pure quantum states, from which we determine binding energy $(E_{\rm b})$, effective mass $(m^{*})$ and maximum group velocity $(V_{\rm m})$ of the soliton bands as functions of the anharmonicity in the limit $f \to \infty$. For arbitrary values of $n$ we have asymptotic expressions for $E_{\rm b}$, $m^{*}$, and $V_{\rm m}$ as functions of the anharmonicity in the limits of large and small anharmonicity. Using these expressions we discuss and describe wave packets of pure eigenstates that correspond to classical solitons.

description: Using visible, radio, microwave, and sub-mm data, we study several lines of sight toward stars generally closer than 1 kpc on a component-by-component basis. We derive the component structure seen in absorption at visible wavelengths from Ca II, Ca I, K I, CH, CH$^{+}\!,$ and CN and compare it to emission from H I, CO and its isotopologues, and C$^{+}$ from the GOT C+ survey. The correspondence between components in emission and absorption help create a more unified picture of diffuse atomic and molecular gas in the interstellar medium. We also discuss how these tracers are related to the CO-dark H$_{2}$ gas probed by C$^{+}$ emission and discuss the kinematic connections among the species observed.

description: Objective: The aim was to assess demographic and clinical factors as predictors of short (6 months) and long term (18 months) HbA1c levels in diabetes patients initiating metformin treatment. Research design and methods: We conducted a cohort study including type 2 diabetes patients who received their first metformin prescription between 2007 and 2013 in the Groningen Initiative to Analyze Type 2 Diabetes Treatment (GIANTT) database. The primary outcome was HbA1c level at follow-up adjusted for baseline HbA1c; the secondary outcome was failing to achieve the target HbA1c level of 53 mmol/mol. Associations were analyzed by linear and logistic regression. Multiple imputation was used for missing data. Additional analyses stratified by dose and adherence level were conducted. Results: The cohort included 6050 patients initiating metformin. Baseline HbA1c at target consistently predicted better HbA1c outcomes. Longer diabetes duration and lower total cholesterol level at baseline were predictors for higher HbA1c levels at 6 months. At 18 months, cholesterol level was not a predictor. Longer diabetes duration was also associated with not achieving the target HbA1c at follow-up. The association for longer diabetes duration was especially seen in patients starting on low dose treatment. No consistent associations were found for comorbidity and comedication. Conclusions: Diabetes duration was a relevant predictor of HbA1c levels after 6 and 18 months of follow-up in patients initiating metformin treatment. Given the study design, no causal inference can be made. Our study suggests that prompt treatment intensification may be needed in patients who have a longer diabetes duration at treatment initiation.
Super W-Symmetries, Covariantly Constant Forms And Duality Transformations

description: On a supersymmetric sigma model the covariantly constant forms are related to the conserved currents that are generators of a super W-algebra extending the superconformal algebra. The existence of covariantly constant forms restricts the holonomy group of the manifold. Via duality transformation we get new covariantly constant forms, thus restricting the holonomy group of the new manifold.

description: The double peeling of detachment of non-linear adhesive tapes from a flat Poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) surface has been investigated from both experimental and theoretical point of view. Double peeling tests show that, as the detachment process advances, the peeling angle stabilizes on a limiting value θlim corresponding to a critical pull-off force Fc above which the tape is completely detached from the substrate. This observed behavior is in good agreement with results obtained following the new theory of multiple peeling and taking into account the hardening-softening non-linear behavior of the experimentally tested adhesive tapes and clarifies some aspects of the experimental data. In particular, the theoretical model shows that the value of the limiting peeling angle depends on the geometry of the adhesive tape as well as on the stiffness properties and on the interfacial energy Δγ. Finally, theoretical predictions confirm that solutions with a peeling angle lower than θlim are unstable.

Exotic compact objects

description: In this talk I discussed experimental probes of dark compact objects in the new era of gravitational wave astrophysics. Such proposed objects include scalar (boson) stars, Q-balls, and dark matter clumps inside neutron stars. I reviewed the properties that will help us distinguish them from astrophysical objects, and the resulting gravitational wave phenomenology. I also discussed connections with other astrophysical probes, such as gravitational (micro)lensing

description: Recently, it has become feasible to generate large-scale, multi-tissue gene expression data, where expression profiles are obtained from multiple tissues or organs sampled from dozens to hundreds of individuals. When traditional clustering methods are applied to this type of data, important information is lost, because they either require all tissues to be analyzed independently, ignoring dependencies and similarities between tissues, or to merge tissues in a single, monolithic dataset, ignoring individual characteristics of tissues. We developed a Bayesian model-based multi-tissue clustering algorithm, revamp, which can incorporate prior information on physiological tissue similarity, and which results in a set of clusters, each consisting of a core set of genes conserved across tissues as well as differential sets of genes specific to one or more subsets of tissues. Using data from seven vascular and metabolic tissues from over 100 individuals in the STockholm Atherosclerosis Gene Expression (STAGE) study, we demonstrate that multi-tissue clusters inferred by revamp are more enriched for tissue-dependent protein-protein interactions compared to alternative approaches. We further demonstrate that revamp results in easily interpretable multi-tissue gene expression associations to key coronary artery disease processes and clinical phenotypes in the STAGE individuals. Revamp is implemented in the Lemon-Tree software, available at https://github.com/eb00/lemon-tree

description: The dual version of the D=10 N=1 supergravity (SUGRA) is considered in the superspace approach. The superstring (anomaly compensating) corrections are described by the 3-form superfield $A_{abc}$ . The complete set of dynamical equations for the $A$-field and for physical fields of the theory are presented. The solution of the $A$-field equations as a finite order polynomial in terms of curvature and graviphoton superfields is given. It makes possible to incorporate some of the superstring corrections in the dual supergravity in the explicit, supersymmetric and closed form.
