description: Swiss metropolitan areas are comprised of a system of communities with considerable fiscal autonomy. This study investigates how the income tax differentials across communities in an urban area affect the households` location decisions. Data from the urban agglomeration of Basel for the year 1997 is used. This unique data set contains tax information from all households that moved either within the city center of Basel or from the city center to the outskirts. The community choice of the households is investigated within the framework of the random utility maximization model (RUM). A theoretical model with progressive income taxation is developed to identify the household preferences applied in the RUM. Different econometric spezifications of the error term structure, such as conditional logit, nested logit and multinomial probit are compared. The empirical results show that rich households are significantly and substantially more likely to move to low-tax communities than poor households.

description: COMPASS is a fixed target experiment at CERN SPS aimed to study hadron structure and spectroscopy. Hadron identification in the momentum range between $3$ and $55 GeV/c$ is provided by a large gaseous Ring Imaging Cherenkov Counter, RICH-1. To cope with the challenges imposed by the new physics program of COMPASS, RICH-1 has been upgraded by replacing four MWPC-based photon detectors with newly developed MPGD-based photon detectors. The architecture of the novel detectors is a hybrid combination of two layers of THGEMs and a Micromegas. The top of the first THGEM is coated with CsI acting as a reflective photo-cathode. The anode is segmented in pads capacitively coupled to the APV-25 based readout. The new hybrid detectors have been commissioned during the 2016 COMPASS data taking and stably operated during the 2017 run. In this paper design, construction, operation and performance aspects of the novel photon detectors for COMPASS RICH-1 are discussed.

description: The paper empirically explores the international linkages between gender inequality and trade flows of a sample of 92 developed and developing countries. The focus is on comparative advantage in labour-intensive manufactured goods. The results indicate that gender wage inequality is positively associated with comparative advantage in labour-intensive goods, that is, countries with a larger gender wage gap have higher exports of these goods. Also, gender inequality in labour force activity rates and educational attainment rates are negatively linked with comparative advantage in labour-intensive commodities.

description: The systematic study of large-scale networks has unveiled the ubiquitous presence of connectivity patterns characterized by large scale heterogeneities and unbounded statistical fluctuations. These features affect dramatically the behavior of the diffusion processes occurring on networks, determining the ensuing statistical properties of their evolution pattern and dynamics. In this paper, we investigate the role of the large scale properties of the airline transportation network in determining the global evolution of emerging disease. We present a stochastic computational framework for the forecast of global epidemics that considers the complete world-wide air travel infrastructure complemented with census population data. We address two basic issues in global epidemic modeling: i) We study the role of the large scale properties of the airline transportation network in determining the global diffusion pattern of emerging diseases; ii) We evaluate the reliability of forecasts and outbreak scenarios with respect to the intrinsic stochasticity of disease transmission and traffic flows. In order to address these issues we define a set of novel quantitative measures able to characterize the level of heterogeneity and predictability of the epidemic pattern. These measures may be used for the analysis of containment policies and epidemic risk assessment.

Uncorrelated two-state single molecule trajectories from reducible kinetic schemes

description: Trajectories of on-off events are the output of many single molecule experiments. Usually, one describes the underlying mechanism that generates the trajectory using a kinetic scheme, and by analyzing the trajectory aims at deducing this scheme. In a previous work [O. Flomenbom, J. Klafter, and A. Szabo, submitted (2004)], we showed that when successive events along a trajectory are uncorrelated, all the information in the trajectory is contained in two basic functions, which are the waiting time probability functions (PDFs) of the on state and of the off state. The kinetic schemes that lead to such uncorrelated trajectories were termed reducible. Here we discuss the reasons that lead to reducible schemes. In particular, the topology of reducible schemes is characterized and proven.
New Development in the Japanese Corporate Governance in the 1990s - The Role of Corporate Pension Funds

description: In recent years, there has been a slow but steady change in ownership structures and corporate governance in Japan. As a result of economic stagnation, relations between companies characterised by cross-shareholdings and the main-bank system have become less rigid and institutional investors show increasing shareholder activism. This paper investigates the role of corporate pension funds in this process. Major trust banks and life insurance companies which act as trustees of pension funds are becoming more and more concerned with shareholder value. However, as will be demonstrated, this does not mean a transition from a relationship-oriented system to a pure market-based one. Instead, due to differences in the regulatory framework and schemes of corporate pension funds, but also due to differences in corporate relationships, there is rather a tendency towards convergence to a "communication-based" system with institutional investors taking the role of information intermediaries for their customers. In den letzten Jahren ist in Japan ein allmählicher stetiger Wandel in Besitzverhältnissen, Unternehmensführung und Managementkontrolle zu beobachten. Als Folge der Wirtschaftsrezession haben sich die Verbindungen zwischen großen Unternehmen, die durch Überkreuz-Aktienbesitz und eine starke Stellung der Banken bestimmt waren, gelockert und gerade institutionelle Investoren sind sich zunehmend ihrer Aktionärsrechte bewußt. Das Diskussionspapier untersucht die Rolle der Unternehmenspensionsfonds in diesem Prozeß. In Japan fungieren Treuhandbanken und Lebensversicherer als Treuhänder der Pensionsfonds. Sie schenken dem Shareholder Value zunehmend Aufmerksamkeit. Das bedeutet allerdings nicht, daß sich die japanische Wirtschaft von einem durch Beziehungen geregelten System zu einem reinen Marktsystem entwickeln wird. Stattdessen zeichnet sich ab, daß es hier zu einer Art "Kommunikationssystem" kommen wird, in dem den institutionellen Investoren vor allem eine Informationsvermittlungsrolle zukommt.

description: Tra il 1519 e il 1526, Hernán Cortés inviò a Carlo V la nota serie di "relaciones", in cui descriveva le scoperte e gli eventi più importanti dopo il suo arrivo nell'attuale Messico. Cortés chiamava sistematicamente "moschee" i centri cerimoniali preispanici. Questo articolo offre alcune riflessioni sull'influenza che il quadro mentale della conquista di al-Andalus (completata nel 1492) ebbe sulla percezione dell'architettura e dell'urbanistica mesoamericana da parte dei conquistatori e colonizzatori castigliani nei primi decenni del XVI secolo, nonché sulla pratica della prima architettura di colonizzazione.

Between 1519 and 1526, Hernán Cortés sent Charles V the well-known series of «relaciones», in which he described the most important findings and events after his arrival in the present territory of Mexico. Cortés systematically called the pre-Hispanic ceremonial centers «mosques» throughout the texts. This paper offers some reflections on the influence that the mental framework of the conquest of al-Andalus (completed in 1492) had on the perception of Mesoamerican architecture and urbanism by the Castilian conquerors and colonizers during the first decades of the 16th century, as well as on the practice of the first architecture of colonization.

description: We show that any planar straight line graph (PSLG) with $n$ vertices has a conforming triangulation by $O(n^{2.5})$ nonobtuse triangles (all angles $\leq 90^\circ$), answering the question of whether any polynomial bound exists. A nonobtuse triangulation is Delaunay, so this result also improves a previous $O(n^3)$ bound of Eldesbrunner and Tan for conforming Delaunay triangulations of PSLGs. In the special case that the PSLG is the triangulation of a simple polygon, we will show that only $O(n^2)$ triangles are needed, improving an $O(n^4)$ bound of Bern and Eppstein. We also show that for any $ε>0$, every PSLG has a conforming triangulation with $O(n^2/ε^2)$ elements and with all angles bounded above by $90^\circ + ε$. This improves a result of S. Mitchell when $ε= 3 π/8 = 67.5^\circ $ and Tan when $ε= 7π/30 =42^\circ$.

description: We study perturbative QCD corrections to deeply virtual Compton scattering on an unpolarized nucleon target in the flavor non-singlet sector to next-to-next-to-leading order accuracy, restricting ourselves to the kinematically dominant amplitude. The difference between the standard minimal subtraction and the conformal scheme, in which conformal symmetry is manifest, is studied to next-to-leading order. Beyond this order we employ conformal symmetry for the evaluation of perturbative corrections. Within a certain class of generalized parton distributions we find moderate radiative corrections.

description: We report the discovery in $TESS$ Sectors 3 and 4 of a compact triply eclipsing triple star system. TIC 209409435 is a previously unknown eclipsing binary with a period of 5.717 days, and the presence of a third star in an outer eccentric orbit of 121.872 day period was found from two sets of third-body eclipses and from eclipse timing variations. The latter exhibit signatures of strong 3rd-body perturbations. After the discovery, we obtained follow-up ground-based photometric observations of several binary eclipses as well as another of the third-body eclipses. We carried out comprehensive analyses, including the simultaneous photodynamical modelling of $TESS$ and ground-based lightcurves (including both archival WASP data, and our own follow-up measurements), as well as eclipse timing variation curves. Also, we have included in the simultaneous fits multiple star spectral energy distribution data and theoretical PARSEC stellar isochrones. We find that the inner binary consists of near twin stars of mass 0.90 $M_\odot$ and radius 0.88 $R_\odot$. The third star is just 9% more massive and 18% larger in radius. The inner binary has a rather small eccentricity while the outer orbit has $e = 0.40$. The inner binary and outer orbit have inclination angles within 0.1$^\circ$ and 0.2$^\circ$ of 90$^\circ$, respectively. The mutual inclination angle is $\lesssim 1/4^\circ$. All of these results were obtained without radial velocity observations.

description: The paper presents a theory of the demand for money that combines a special case of the shopping time exchange economy with the cash-in-advance framework. The model predicts that both higher inflation and financial innovation - that reduces the cost of credit - induce agents to substitute away from money towards exchange credit. This results in an interest elasticity of money that rises with the inflation rate rather than the constant elasticity found in standard shopping time specifications. A number of the key predictions of the banking time theory are tested using quarterly data for the US and Australia. We find cointegration empirical support for the model, with robustness checks and a comparison to a standard specification.

description: The paper aims to explore international trade flows of the countries involved in the EU eastward enlargement processes - the current EU members (EU15) and the candidate countries (CC12). The empirical results of the study allow us to conclude that the behaviour of bilateral trade flows within the countries involved in EU eastward enlargement accords to the normal rules of gravitation, having statistically significant spatial biases caused by the trade relations, between the Baltic Sea Region (BSR) countries (the BSR bias), the border countries (the border bias) and the EU member and candidate countries (the East-West bias). The East-West trade relations are still rather weakly developed and there is a statistically significant difference in international trade patterns between the two groups - the current EU members and the applicant countries. The lessons of the Baltic Sea Region in integrating countries with different economic and political backgrounds and developing bilateral trade relations are valuable in supporting EU eastward enlargement and the reintegration of new member countries into Europe.
Essays on the implementation of environmental regulations in Canada
Creators: name: Eckert, Heather
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis examines two important issues concerning the implementation of environmental regulation, with an emphasis on Canada. The first essay presents an empirical examination of inspection and warnings used to enforce inventory regulation for petroleum storage sites in Manitoba. Between 1983 and 1998, Manitoba Environment responded to 97% of inventory violations with a warning. The typical model used to study the enforcement of environmental regulations provides no role for warnings to reduce noncompliance. I develop a two stage probit model based on state dependent enforcement. In the first stage, the probability of an inspection is estimated as a function of site characteristics and violation history. The probability of a violation is then estimated as a function of site characteristics, violation history, and the estimated inspection probability. I find that the probability of a violation is decreasing in the inspection probability, suggesting that inspections and warnings may be effective even if few prosecutions result. The second and third essays examine the possibility that the distribution of regulatory powers between federal and regional governments in countries such as Canada can provide a strategic advantage in international environmental negotiations. I develop a model in which two countries negotiate an agreement on the abatement of a global pollutant. Each country is a federation and its exogenous constitution determines whether the federal or regional governments have jurisdiction over negotiating and enforcing international agreements. The regional governments place less weight on the global benefits of abatement, and therefore display a relative aversion to abatement. The second essay shows that the domestic region's relative aversion to abatement can provide the country with a strategic advantage when the region holds regulatory powers if the region is sufficiently large and the foreign country's regulatory powers lay with either the federal government or a larger region. If equal sized regions hold regulatory powers, both countries are worse off relative to federal control in both countries. In the third essay I show hat the federal government can enjoy a similar strategic advantage when the region enforces agreements negotiated by the federal government.

description: Self-organized criticality is characterized by power law correlations in the non-equilibrium steady state of externally driven systems. A dynamical system proposed here self-organizes itself to a critical state with no characteristic size at ``dynamical equilibrium''. The system is a random solid in contact with an aqueous solution and the dynamics is the chemical reaction of corrosion or dissolution of the solid in the solution. The initial difference in chemical potential at the solid-liquid interface provides the driving force. During time evolution, the system undergoes two transitions, roughening and anti-percolation. Finally, the system evolves to a dynamical equilibrium state characterized by constant chemical potential and average cluster size. The cluster size distribution exhibits power law at the final equilibrium state.

heuristic evaluation

description: The aim of this programme of research was to build upon prior work regarding the heuristic evaluation of mobile applications in two important areas. A mixed methods approach was taken to address the research questions using questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, document analysis and statistical analyses. The first contribution of this programme of research was to adapt traditional usability heuristics, so they could be used to more effectively evaluate the usability of mobile applications. The resulting set of mobile application usability heuristics uncovered the highest number of usability issues in absolute terms, as well as the most critical issues within a well-known travel mobile application when compared to two other sets of usability heuristics. In addition, the set of mobile application usability heuristics defined within this programme of research was ranked as the most useful set by participants knowledgeable in the field of human-computer interaction when compared to two other sets of usability heuristics. The second contribution of this programme of research was to extend the set of mobile application heuristics allowing human-computer interaction researchers and practitioners to more effectively consider the potential impact of context of use on the usability of mobile applications. This addressed a gap in the literature as few effective methods existed for this purpose. The protocol was deemed easy to use, easy to understand and easy to learn by participants knowledgeable in the field of human-computer interaction. The beneficiaries of this programme of research are human-computer interaction researchers and practitioners, as well as mobile application users.
Non-linear QCD evolution with improved triple-pomeron vertices

description: In a previous publication, we have constructed a set of non-linear evolution equations for dipole scattering amplitudes in QCD at high energy, which extends the Balitsky-JIMWLK hierarchy by including the effects of fluctuations in the gluon number in the target wavefunction. In doing so, we have relied on the color dipole picture, valid in the limit where the number of colors is large, and we have made some further approximations on the relation between scattering amplitudes and dipole densities, which amount to neglecting the non-locality of the two-gluon exchanges. In this Letter, we relax the latter approximations, and thus restore the correct structure of the `triple-pomeron vertex' which describes the splitting of one BFKL pomeron into two within the terms responsible for fluctuations. The ensuing triple-pomeron vertex coincides with the one previously derived by Braun and Vacca within perturbative QCD. The evolution equations can be recast in a Langevin form, but with a multivariable noise term with off-diagonal correlations. Our equations are shown to be equivalent with the modified version of the JIMWLK equation recently proposed by Mueller, Shoshi, and Wong.

description: It is dealt with the question, under which circumstances the canonical Noether stress-energy tensor is equivalent to the gravitational (Hilbert) tensor for general matter fields under the influence of gravity. In the framework of general relativity, the full equivalence is established for matter fields that do not couple to the metric derivatives. Spinor fields are included into our analysis by reformulating general relativity in terms of tetrad fields, and the case of Poincare gauge theory, with an additional, independent Lorentz connection, is also investigated. Special attention is given to the flat limit, focusing on the expressions for the matter field energy (Hamiltonian). The Dirac-Maxwell system is investigated in detail, with special care given to the separation of free (kinetic) and interaction (or potential) energy. Moreover, the stress-energy tensor of the gravitational field itself is briefly discussed.

description: Rice is the fundamental principal food for about half of the world's population, and it supplies 20% of the calories consumed worldwide. Rice consumption increases with population. In the 21st century, a large increase in population is anticipated. Most of the increase will occur in Asia and Africa, where the population lives on rice. The food problem will become as important as the environmental problem. We present basic data for thinking about the food problem in the future. In this research, we consider Asia, Africa, Europe, the Americas and Oceania as model areas and examine rice production and consumption in each area. We study rice-deficit areas, rice-surplus areas, and their total balance.

description: Although much has been written on consumer attitudes toward genetically modified foods, not much is known about how or where consumers get the information for the decisions they make about genetically modified foods. This paper reports on the media used by consumers in acquiring information about biotech food and nutrition issues, and examines how much trust consumers put in selected information sources. The paper also discusses how socio-economic variables affect level of trust in selected sources. Qualitative and quantitative techniques were applied to data collected from focus groups and a mail questionnaire survey. Analyses showed that consumers used newspapers (73.7%), television (73.2%), and magazines (71.2%) occasionally or more frequently than other sources to collect information about food and biotechnology. Health professionals, extension professionals, and University scientists were most trusted for providing information about GM foods. Findings of the study could provide information on choice of effective channels for communicating information about modified food and biotechnology.
Information Loss in Black Holes

description: The question of whether information is lost in black holes is investigated using Euclidean path integrals. The formation and evaporation of black holes is regarded as a scattering problem with all measurements being made at infinity. This seems to be well formulated only in asymptotically AdS spacetimes. The path integral over metrics with trivial topology is unitary and information preserving. On the other hand, the path integral over metrics with non-trivial topologies leads to correlation functions that decay to zero. Thus at late times only the unitary information preserving path integrals over trivial topologies will contribute. Elementary quantum gravity interactions do not lose information or quantum coherence.

description: Recent observations (Burnes2002,Veillet2002,Margot2002a) have revealed an unexpectedly high binary fraction among the Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) that populate the Kuiper Belt. The TNO binaries are strikingly different from asteroid binaries in four respects (Veillet2002): their frequency is an order of magnitude larger, the mass ratio of their components is closer to unity, and their orbits are wider and highly eccentric. Two explanations have been proposed for their formation, one assuming large numbers of massive bodies (Weidenschilling2002), and one assuming large numbers of light bodies (Goldreich2002). We argue that both assumptions are unwarranted, and we show how TNO binaries can be produced from a modest number of intermediate-mass bodies of the type predicted by the gravitational instability theory for the formation of planetesimals (Goldreich and Ward1973). We start with a TNO binary population similar to the asteroid binary population, but subsequently modified by three-body exchange reactions, a process that is far more efficient in the Kuiper belt, because of the much smaller tidal perturbations by the Sun. Our mechanism can naturally account for all four characteristics that distinguish TNO binaries from main-belt asteroid binaries.

Modeling quark-hadron duality in polarization observables

description: We apply a model for the study of quark-hadron duality in inclusive electron scattering to the calculation of spin observables. The model is based on solving the Dirac equation numerically for a scalar confining linear potential and a vector color Coulomb potential. We qualitatively reproduce the features of quark-hadron duality for all potentials considered, and discuss the onset of scaling and duality for the responses, spin structure functions, and polarization asymmetries. Duality may be applied to gain access to kinematic regions which are hard to access in deep inelastic scattering, namely for $x_{Bj} \to 1$, and we discuss which observables are most suitable for this application of duality.

description: We report the results of our Chandra observations of six QSOs at $z\sim 3$ from the Palomer Transit Grism Survey. Our primary goal is to investigate the possible systematic change of $α_{ox}$ between $z>4$ and $z\sim 3$, between which a rapid rise of luminous QSO number density with cosmic time is observed. The summed spectrum showed a power-law spectrum with photon index of $Γ\approx 1.9$, which is similar to other unabsorbed AGNs. Combining our $z\sim 3$ QSOs with X-ray observations of QSOs at $z>4$ from literaure/archive, we find a correlation of $α_{\rm ox}$ with optical luminosity. This is consistent with the fact that the luminosity function slope of the luminous end of the X-ray selected QSOs is steeper than that of optically-selected QSOs. We discuss an upper limit to the redshift dependence of $α_{ox}$ using a Monte-Carlo simulation. Within the current statistical errors including the derived limits on the redshift dependence of $α_{\rm ox}$, we found that the behaviors of the X-ray and optically-selected QSO number densities are consistent with each other.

description: Results from a random sample of 1421 households in the southern United States suggest that the most likely consumers of rabbit meat are men, non-college graduates, those with household incomes at or below $50,000, households with children, and Louisiana residents. The current market for rabbit meat is small. However, the meat is lower in fat, cholesterol, and calories, and higher in protein than beef, chicken, turkey, or pork, and these desirable nutritional attributes may spark future demand.

description: The fusion and transfer induced fission reaction $^{9}$Be($^{238}$U,~f) with 6.2 MeV/u beam energy, using a unique setup consisting of AGATA, VAMOS++ and EXOGAM detectors, was used to populate through the fission process and study the neutron-rich $^{119,121}$In isotopes. This setup enabled the prompt-delayed $γ$-ray spectroscopy of isotopes in the time range of $100~\rm{ns} - 200~μ\rm{s}$. In the odd-$A$ $^{119,121}$In isotopes, indications of a short half-life $19/2^{-}$ isomeric state, in addition to the previously known $25/2^{+}$ isomeric state, were observed from the present data. Further, new prompt transitions above the $25/2^{+}$ isomer in $^{121}$In were identified along with reevaluation of its half-life. The experimental data were compared with the theoretical results obtained in the framework of large-scale shell-model calculations in a restricted model space. The $\langle πg_{9/2} νh_{11/2};I \arrowvert \hat{\mathcal{H}}\arrowvert πg_{9/2} νh_{11/2};I\rangle$ two-body matrix elements of residual interaction were modified to explain the excitation energies and the $B(E2)$ transition probabilities in the neutron-rich In isotopes. The (i) decreasing trend of $E(29/2^{+}) - E(25/2^{+})$ in odd-In (with dominant configuration $πg_{9/2}^{-1}νh_{11/2}^{-2}$ and maximum aligned spin of $29/2^{+}$) and (ii) increasing trend of $E(27/2^{+}) - E(23/2^{+})$ in odd-Sb (with dominant configuration $πg_{7/2}^{+1}νh_{11/2}^{-2}$ and maximum aligned spin of $27/2^{+}$) with increasing neutron number could be understood as a consequence of hole-hole and particle-hole interactions, respectively.

description: North America is the largest net importer of bananas on a regional basis. The United States is still the world's number- one importer and consumer of bananas. U.S. companies spend approximately $1.1 billion each year on banana imports, purchasing 31.1% of total world imports (Fonsah 2002; FAO 2001). Bananas and plantains together have been rated the fourth most important crop in the world in terms of food value and food security. This research is aimed at determining the feasibility and suitability of Annual Cropping Production (ACP) for a niche market under Georgia weather conditions and, determining which cultivars have the greatest potential for ornamental-landscape use and ornamental-nursery production. Phenological and pomological sampling and data will be used to analyze the feasibility and suitability of ACP and ornamental use.
