description: China’s rural reforms expose farm households to the risk of administrative land reallocation and adjustment. The possibility of land reallocation gives rise to the problem of tenure insecurity which reduces farm households' incentives to invest in the land and to use the labor forces efficiently and hence negatively affect farmers' income. In this study, the normalized quadratic profit function is used to analyze profit maximization problems in farm households in the Zhejiang and Hubei provinces of China from 1995 to 2002. Additional variables have been introduced to capture the effects of a series of institutional environment and factor market constraints, including land insecurity, crop cultivation structure, labor input and capital input allocations between agricultural and non-agricultural productions. Our results indicate that, although the official controls on rural labor mobility have been relaxed, the rural labor market has not yet reached the optimal level, and a less-than-optimal level of labor input is devoted to non-agriclutural activities for farm households in both provinces. Furthermore, the negative effects of land tenure insecurity on farmhousehold income through the interactions with the other three input allocations are observed in the Hubei province.

description: Spinorial geometry methods are used to classify solutions admitting Majorana Killing spinors of the minimal 4-dimensional supergravity in neutral signature, with vanishing cosmological constant and a single Maxwell field strength. Two classes of solutions preserving the minimal amount of supersymmetry are found. The first class admits a null-Kahler structure and corresponds to a class of self-dual solutions found by Bryant. The second class admits a null and rotation-free geodesic congruence with respect to which a parallel frame can be chosen. Examples of solutions in the former class are pseudo-hyper-Kahler manifolds; and examples in the latter class include self-dual solutions, as well as a neutral-signature IWP-type solution.

description: A multi-layered structure consisting of alternate right-handed material (RHM) and left-handed material (LHM)is considered and the unusual narrow transmission bands are explained as the competitive results of the Bragg condition and the transparent condition. These unusual narrow transmission bands may exist regardless whether the optical length of the LHM layer cancels the optical length of the RHM layer or not. This unusual transmission property may disappear when the reflection coefficient for each interface is small and the optical length of the LHM layer does not cancel the optical length of the RHM layer. An non-ideal model when the LHM is dispersive and lossy is also employed to confirm the unusual transmission phenomenon.

description: This thesis is concerned with identifying the physical, social and economic characteristics of a particular Chinese city, Yangzhou, and with examining the nature of the relationship between this city and its hinterland. These questions are considered within the time frame provided by the growth and decline of Yangzhou in the Qing dynasty. Chapter 1 is devoted to a survey of the city's earlier history up to the beginning of the Qing dynasty, and illustrates the historical dependence of the city on geo-political factors related to the nature of imperial power. In Chapter 2, the city's transition from the service of one imperial power, the Ming, to the service of another, the Qing, is described and discussed. In Chapter 3, an attempt is made to define the city's immediate hinterland with a view to establishing the parameters within which the relationship of the city and its region might meaningfully be discussed. Chapter 4 is devoted to a consideration of the hydraulic problems in Yangzhou's hinterland and of how they were approached in the early Qing. Chapters 3 and 4 together suggest the general backwardness of the rural areas and inland cities of central Jiangsu compared to the region's dominant city, Yangzhou. Against this background, an inquiry is then undertaken into the role of the salt trade, salt officials and salt merchants in the administrative and economic organization of the city and its hinterland. Chapters 5-7 are broadly directed towards illustrating the fact that the major benefits from the salt monopoly accrued to Yangzhou at the expense of the well-being of its hinterland. In Chapter 8, through a survey of trade routes and trade movements in central Jiangsu, the significance of other market activities for the relationship between the city and its hinterland are considered. Chapter 9, concerned exclusively with the commercial and social character of Yangzhou, reveals the city as primarily consumer-oriented. In the tenth and concluding chapter, evidence of the city's incipient decline in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries is presented with some discussion of the implications of this process for an understanding of the city's relationship both with the metropolis and with its own hinterland.

description: Scalar fields in the minimal supersymmetric standard model may have large field values during inflation. Because of approximate global symmetry, it is plausible that the phase directions of them are nearly massless during inflation and obtain quantum fluctuations, which may be the origin of the cosmic perturbations. If perturbations are produced through Q-ball formation, baryon asymmetry and dark matter can be consistently generated. Significant baryon and dark matter isocurvature perturbations are produced, but they are predicted to nearly compensate each other. The lepton asymmetry is much larger than the baryon asymmetry. The scenario predicts local non-Gaussianity of $f_{\rm NL} = 5/3$. Implication to the mass spectrum of supersymmetric particles is discussed.

description: We discuss the phenomenology of the lightest stop in models where R-parity is broken by bilinear superpotential terms. In this class of models we consider scenarios where the R-parity breaking two-body decay ~t_1->τ^+b competes with the leading three-body decays such as ~t_1->W^+b~χ^0_1. We demonstrate that the R-parity violating decay can be sizable and in some parts of the parameter space even the dominant one. Moreover we discuss the expectations for t_1->μ^+b and ~t_1->e^+b. The recent results from solar and atmospheric neutrinos suggest that these are as important as the tau bottom mode. The t_1->l^+b decays are of particular interest for hadron colliders, as they may allow a full mass reconstruction of the lighter stop. Moreover these decay modes allow cross checks on the neutrino mixing angle involved in the solar neutrino puzzle complementary to those possible using neutralino decays. For the so--called small mixing angle or SMA solution ~t_1->e^+b should be negligible, while for the large mixing angle type solutions all ~t_1->l^+b decays should have comparable magnitude.

Critical parameters of liquid-gas phase transition in thermal symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter

Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: The properties of critical parameters and phase diagram structure of liquid-gas phase transition are investigated in thermal symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter with the covariant density functional (CDF) theory. Although uncertainty remains in predicting the critical parameters such as the critical temperature and pressure from various CDF functionals, several correlations are explored numerically and verified to be approximately linear between them. These correlations become worse when nuclear matter is more isospin asymmetric, resulting mainly from the effects induced by symmetry energy. By looking over the isospin dependence of the critical temperature, the role of the symmetry energy in LG transition properties of asymmetric matter is realized. The change of critical temperature with isospin asymmetry is found to be correlated well with and as a consequence could be constrained by the density slope of symmetry energy at saturation density. Then, the structure of phase diagram of thermal nuclear matter is analyzed carefully. It is revealed that the contribution from symmetry energy dominates the size of liquid-gas phase coexistence area. Moreover, the specific pattern of the phase diagram could be determined by the critical temperature at non-zero isospin asymmetry, illustrated from the correlations of the temperature with pressures at several characteristic points, paving the possible way to further explore the structure of liquid-gas phase diagram of thermal nuclear matter.

Suppose that $EC(R^{\#})$ is the set of all equivalence classes of $R^{\#}\ $according to $\sim$.$\ $Let $U_{a}=\{[b]\in EC(R^{\#}):b\ $divides $a\}$ for every $a\in R^{\#}.$ Then we prove that the family $\{U_{a}\}_{a\in R^{\#}}$ becomes a basis for a topology on $EC(R^{\#}).\ $This topology is called divisor topology of $R\ $and denoted by $D(R).\ $We investigate the connections between the algebraic properties of $R\ $and the topological properties of$\ D(R)$. In particular, we investigate the seperation axioms on $D(R)$, first and second countability axioms, connectivity and compactness on $D(R)$. We prove that for atomic domains $R,\ $the divisor topology $D(R)\ $is a Baire space. Also, we characterize valution domains $R$ in terms of nested property of $D(R).$ In the last section, we introduce a new topological proof of the infinitude of prime elements in a UFD and integers by using the topology $D(R)$.

description: We study the hydrodynamic evolution of an explosion close to the stellar surface, and give predictions for the radiation from such an event. We show that such an event will give rise to a multi-wavelength transient. We apply this model to describe a precursor burst to the peculiar supernova iPTF14hls, which occurred in 1954, sixty year before the supernova. We propose that the new generation of optical surveys might detect similar transients, and they can be used to identify supernova progenitors well before the explosion.

description: This paper delves into the deformation of spinor structures within nontrivial topologies and their physical implications. The deformation is modeled by introducing real functions that modify the standard spinor dynamics, leading to distinct physical regions characterized by varying degrees of Lorentz symmetry violation. It allows us to investigate the effects in the dynamical equation and a geometrized nonlinear sigma model. The findings suggest significant implications for the spinor fields in regions with nontrivial topologies, providing a robust mathematical approach to studying exotic spinor behavior.

description: This paper introduces a methodological framework based on indices for regulatory heterogeneity which is useful to evaluate technical, sanitary and phytosanitary requirements in international agri-food trade. The study uses the index of regulatory heterogeneity in trade (HIT index), constructed to combine binary, ordered and quantitative information, and the index of directional heterogeneity in trade (DHIT), which excludes regulations introduced by importing countries that are less stringent than those in the exporting country. These indices were applied to evaluate the regulatory heterogeneity of MRLs for pesticides under the perspective of the EU. The results indicated that despite of the relatively high number of regulations introduced by the EU for the set of products selected for the analysis, in general, the heterogeneity indices are not higher than 0.6 (on a scale from 0 to 1) for the HIT and are lower than 0.3 for the DHIT, suggesting that most of these regulations are stricter in the EU bloc and are not expected to have a negative impact upon the European exports.

description: Finite lumps of color-flavor locked strange quark matter (CFL-strangelets) are significantly more stable than strangelets without color-flavor locking for wide ranges of parameters, increasing the likelihood of strangelet metastability, or even absolute stability beyond some minimum baryon number $A_{min}$. Whereas bulk CFL strange quark matter is electrically neutral, CFL-strangelets are positively charged, with $Z\approx 0.3 A^{2/3}$. This is quite different from ``ordinary'' strangelets and may provide a possible test of color-flavor locking if strangelets are detected in upcoming cosmic-ray space experiments.

description: A new physical mechanism is suggested to explain the universal depletion of high meson excitations. It takes into account the appearance of holes inside the string world sheet due to $q\bar{q}$ pair creation when the length of the string exceeds the critical value $R_1 \simeq 1.4$ fm. It is argued that a delicate balance between large $N_c$ loop suppression and a favorable gain in the action, produced by holes, creates a new metastable (predecay) stage with a renormalized string tension which now depends on the separation r. This results in smaller values of the slope of the radial Regge trajectories, in good agreement with the analysis of experimental data in [Ref.3]

subject: applied general equilibrium

description: This paper introduces a more sophisticated modelling of the labour market functioning of the European member and candidate states through the introduction of labour supply curves in an applied general equilibrium model. A labour supply curve offers a middle way in labour supply modelling, sitting between the two commonly adopted extremes of spare capacity and full employment. The first part of the paper outlines the theoretical foundation of the labour supply curve. Real world data is then used to derive labour supply curves for each member state, along with Croatia and Turkey. Finally, the impact of the newly specified labour markets on the results of an illustrative scenario involving reform of the common agricultural policy is explored. The results of computable general equilibrium analysis with the labour supply curve confirm the theoretical expectation that modelling the labour supply through an upwards-sloping curve produces results that lie between the extremes of spare capacity of the labour factor and fully employed labour. This specification captures a greater degree of heterogeneity in the labour markets of the member and candidate states, allowing for a more nuanced modelling of the effects of policy reform, including welfare effects.

Technology, welfare and intensive animal farming : case studies of the poultry and pig industries

subject: Animal culture Australia

description: This thesis examines the use of new technology in the post-war Australian poultry and pig industries and the implications of this technology for animal welfare. The literature on animal welfare and technology adoption has been brought together using an organisations perspective. It is argued that in order to understand why new technology has been adopted it is necessary to examine the organisations and institutions which influence farmer decision-making. Farmers are constrained to varying degrees by the organisations and institutions in their operational environment and as they have adopted increasingly sophisticated technology developed off the farm they have lost further control over decision-making. The theoretical framework emphasises the interaction between farmers and organisations but also takes account of the wider political economy and the role of individuals. The separate chapters discuss the changes that have occurred in the layer, broiler and pig industries. The use of intensive technology has increased efficiency and reduced uncertainty in the production process. Balanced against these advantages are welfare disadvantages. Intensive technology has been criticised by welfare groups who have put new pressures on farmers. As a result farmers have been placed in a difficult situation: to remain economically viable they have been forced to adopt new technology yet at the same time they have been criticised for using it. Analysis focuses on the differing perspectives taken by the major groups in the welfare debate in order to clarify their positions. The determination of welfare is discussed with reference to the problems involved in assessing optimum or even acceptable conditions. There are a number of areas in which welfare and farm profits can be improved together, and others where increased animal welfare will incur higher costs. These will have to be met by the consumer, either directly through higher prices or indirectly through subsidies to the industries.

ACE of Space: Estimating Genetic Components of High-Dimensional Imaging Data

description: It is of great interest to quantify the contributions of genetic variation to brain structure and function, which are usually measured by high-dimensional imaging data (e.g., magnetic resonance imaging). In addition to the variance, the covariance patterns in the genetic effects of a functional phenotype are of biological importance, and covariance patterns have been linked to psychiatric disorders. The aim of this paper is to develop a scalable method to estimate heritability and the non-stationary covariance components in high-dimensional imaging data from twin studies. Our motivating example is from the Human Connectome Project (HCP). Several major big-data challenges arise from estimating the genetic and environmental covariance functions of functional phenotypes extracted from imaging data, such as cortical thickness with 60,000 vertices. Notably, truncating to positive eigenvalues and their eigenfunctions from unconstrained estimators can result in large bias. This motivated our development of a novel estimator ensuring positive semidefiniteness. Simulation studies demonstrate large improvements over existing approaches, both with respect to heritability estimates and covariance estimation. We applied the proposed method to cortical thickness data from the HCP. Our analysis suggests fine-scale differences in covariance patterns, identifying locations in which genetic control is correlated with large areas of the brain and locations where it is highly localized.

description: Tanaella tuberculata Kudinova-Pasternak, 1989
 Distribution. Tanaella tuberculata has only been recorded from the Indian Ocean. Stn Si-19, 5°37∞N, 78°28∞E, 3660 m.
 Remarks. This is only known from three specimens and is unique by presenting a five-articulated antennule in the male. This is very peculiar and may be an artifact. Unfortunately specimens of T. tuberculata were not available for study and pleopods have not been described or illustrated. The female is very similar to T. prolixcauda but the female can be separated by the lack of pleopods and the male by the fivearticulated antennule. Since no female T. prolixcauda has been found, it is not possible to know what separates it from T. tuberculata.

description: We present the first images of the nebula around eta Carinae obtained with HST/WFC3, including a UV image in the F280N filter that traces MgII emission, plus contemporaneous imaging in the F336W, F658N, and F126N filters that trace near-UV continuum, [NII], and [FeII], respectively. The F336W and F658N images are consistent with previous images in these filters, and F126N shows that for the most part, [FeII] 12567 traces clumpy shocked gas seen in [NII]. The F280N image, however, reveals MgII emission from structures that have not been seen in any previous line or continuum images of eta Carinae. This image shows diffuse MgII emission immediately outside the bipolar Homunculus nebula in all directions, but with the strongest emission concentrated over the poles. The diffuse structure with prominent radial streaks, plus an anticorrelation with ionized tracers of clumpy shocked gas, leads us to suggest that this is primarily MgII resonant scattering from unshocked, neutral atomic gas. We discuss the implied structure and geometry of the MgII emission, and its relation to the Homunculus lobes and various other complex nebular structures. An order of magnitude estimate of the neutral gas mass traced by MgII is 0.02Msun, with a corresponding kinetic energy around 1e47erg. This may provide important constraints on polar mass loss in the early phases of the Great Eruption. We argue that the MgII line may be an excellent tracer of significant reservoirs of freely expanding, unshocked, and otherwise invisible neutral atomic gas in a variety of stellar outflows.

Material examined from Xizang. None.
 Distribution. China: Xizang (Bologna, 2008) (Tingri (Tan, 1981; Wang et al., 2003)).
 Remarks. According to the original description (Tan, 1981), the species has the shape of pronotum typical in Eurymeloe, but has the elytral length conspicuously shorter than other members of the subgenus Eurymeloe. Thus, the subgeneric assignment of this species needs to be confirmed.

Communal land tenure in nineteenth century Java : the formation of western images of the eastern village community
Creators: name: Goh, Taro
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1985
Subjects: subject: Land tenure History 19th centuryIndonesia Java

description: This thesis is meant to be an anthropological discourse upon the discourse concerning the so-called communal land ownership (tenure is a better word) in nineteenth century Java. Though some of my remarks made in this thesis may be interpreted as if I am attempting to come up with the actual situation, as far as land tenure is concerned, in nineteenth century Java, that is not where the real purport of the present thesis lies. It would be presumptuous of me to attempt such a thing, which properly belongs to the realm of historians, and besides I do not think that there is enough data from the middle of the last century and earlier to make any conclusive statements about land tenure in Java, especially as to whether there was a change from an individual system of tenure to communal tenure as is often claimed. In fact, when I started to work on this thesis, it was my intention to either prove or disprove whether there was actually a shift from individual to communal land tenure in nineteenth century Java. If the present thesis still gives the impression of being a history thesis, rather than an anthropology thesis, it is only so in the sense of being a historical analysis of the European image of Java, as expressed in the literature about communal land tenure in Java, but not in the sense of being a historical work about Java.
