Capital market outcomes and linguistic attributes of high-quality annual
      report narratives
Creators: name: Munro, Jacqui
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2019

description: This thesis explores capital market outcomes and linguistic features of
      high-quality narrative reporting. U.K. narrative reporting awards proxy
      for quality: award-winners are high-quality. To explore capital market
      outcomes to narrative reporting quality, I use a matched-sample design
      (award-winners matched with non-award-winners) and find that high-quality
      annual report narratives are seemingly less informative to capital market
      participants. Further analysis indicates that high-quality annual report
      narratives are less informative than their matched counterparts at the
      annual report release date because firms with high-quality annual report
      narratives disclose information earlier than their peers. To explore the
      linguistic features of high-quality narratives, I use corpus linguistic
      methodology (specifically the concept of keyness) to identify themes and
      stylistic features that distinguish high-quality narratives from their
      non-high-quality counterparts. High-quality narratives disclose more
      strategy and forward-looking information than their non-high-quality
      counterparts, and are more accessible. Accessibility is defined by simple
      sentence structures, connectivity within the report, and relevancy
      markers. In further analysis, extant quality proxies of readability and
      tone fail to identify high-quality narratives.

description: The "value" of infinite horizon risk-sensitive control is the principal eigenvalue of a certain positive operator. This facilitates the use of Chang's extension of the Collatz-Wielandt formula to derive a variational characterization thereof. For the uncontrolled case, this reduces to the Donsker-Varadhan functional.

description: We propose methodology for statistical inference for low-dimensional parameters of sparse precision matrices in a high-dimensional setting. Our method leads to a non-sparse estimator of the precision matrix whose entries have a Gaussian limiting distribution. Asymptotic properties of the novel estimator are analyzed for the case of sub-Gaussian observations under a sparsity assumption on the entries of the true precision matrix and regularity conditions. Thresholding the de-sparsified estimator gives guarantees for edge selection in the associated graphical model. Performance of the proposed method is illustrated in a simulation study.

description: There are a plethora of concept inventories in physics available for faculty to use, but it is not always clear exactly why you would use these tests, or how you should administer them and interpret the results. These multiple-choice research-based tests about physics concepts are valuable because they allow for standardized comparisons among institutions, instructors, or over time. In order for these comparisons to be meaningful, you should use best practices for administering the tests. Here we discuss best practices for administering concept inventories including background on these types of tests and specifics of how to give them online or in-class. We also discuss advantages and disadvantages of different incentives you could give your students, interpretation of scores and common concerns you may have about using concept inventories.

Economy wide Impact of Direct Tax Reform in Ethiopia: A Recursive Dynamic Computable General Equilibrium Analysis
Creators: name: Belayneh Asmare Mekonnen
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: Since at the end of 2016, employment income tax (PIT), rental income tax and corporate income tax has been undergone a policy reform in Ethiopia. With the tax policy reforms in 2016, the rates of direct tax bracket on average reduced by 40%. In this study, we aim to analyze the effects of direct tax reductions on macroeconomic variables, income and expenditures of the government and income distribution and welfare of households. Since a major tax policy change can have considerable impacts on the economic agents, the economic impacts of these changes should be evaluated by taking economy-wide effects into account. For this study, the researcher employed a recursive dynamic computable general equilibrium model developed by IFPRI. The impact of the direct tax reform is different among households and factors. For households, a decrease in the direct tax causes to a higher disposable incomes, especially for urban non-poor households that involve in the labor market. Benefits to rural poor households were lower; because their income is depend on subsistence farming.

Synchronisation and stability in nonautonomous oscillatory systems
Creators: name: Lucas, Maxime
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2019

description: Many natural and artificial systems can be modelled by ensembles of
      coupled oscillators. These types of systems can exhibit various
      synchronisation phenomena, where the interaction between the oscillators
      leads them to some kind of coherent behaviour, despite heterogeneities in
      the system. Moreover, many such systems are subject to a timevariable
      environment which effectively drives them. Many examples can be found in
      living systems, e.g., the dynamics of a cell is strongly dependent on the
      ever-changing intra- and extra-cellular ionic concentrations.

      Motivated by these considerations, this thesis investigates the effect of
      time-varying parameters on synchronisation and stability in ensembles of
      coupled oscillators. Timevariability is a crucial ingredient of the
      dynamics of many real-life systems, and interest in it is only recently
      starting to grow. Such systems are in general described by nonautonomous
      equations, which are hard to treat in general. This present work aims at
      answering questions such as: Can time-variability be
      detrimental/beneficial to synchronisation? If so, under which conditions?
      Can time-variability seed new dynamical phenomena? How can one best treat
      nonautonomous systems?

      The systems studied can be divided into two categories. First, the effect
      of a driving oscillator with a time-varying frequency is investigated. It
      is shown that increasing the amplitude of the frequency modulation can
      increase the size of the stability region in parameter space, under
      general assumptions. Short-term dynamics and stability properties are also
      investigated, and their dynamics is shown to be of importance. Second, the
      effect of time-varying couplings between the oscillators is considered.
      This is shown to be able to make the synchronous state unstable and yield
      oscillation death.

      Overall, the thesis illustrates that time-variability can be either
      beneficial or detrimental to synchronous dynamics, and investigates in
      detail and gives insight about cases of both. It argues towards the
      general fact that short-term dynamics is often crucial to a physically
      relevant understanding of nonautonomous systems.

description: This paper proposes stochastic models for the analysis of ocean surface trajectories obtained from freely-drifting satellite-tracked instruments. The proposed time series models are used to summarise large multivariate datasets and infer important physical parameters of inertial oscillations and other ocean processes. Nonstationary time series methods are employed to account for the spatiotemporal variability of each trajectory. Because the datasets are large, we construct computationally efficient methods through the use of frequency-domain modelling and estimation, with the data expressed as complex-valued time series. We detail how practical issues related to sampling and model misspecification may be addressed using semi-parametric techniques for time series, and we demonstrate the effectiveness of our stochastic models through application to both real-world data and to numerical model output.

description: Heat waves merit careful study because they inflict severe economic and societal damage. We use an intuitive, informal working definition of a heat wave-a persistent event in the tail of the temperature distribution-to motivate an interpretable latent state extreme value model. A latent variable with dependence in time indicates membership in the heat wave state. The strength of the temporal dependence of the latent variable controls the frequency and persistence of heat waves. Within each heat wave, temperatures are modeled using extreme value distributions, with extremal dependence across time accomplished through an extreme value Markov model. One important virtue of interpretability is that model parameters directly translate into quantities of interest for risk management, so that questions like whether heat waves are becoming longer, more severe or more frequent are easily answered by querying an appropriate fitted model. We demonstrate the latent state model on two recent, calamitous, examples: the European heat wave of 2003 and the Russian heat wave of 2010.

description: Techniques for finding regularized solutions to underdetermined linear systems can be viewed as imposing prior knowledge on the unknown vector. The success of modern techniques, which can impose priors such as sparsity and non-negativity, is the result of advances in optimization algorithms to solve problems which lack closed-form solutions. Techniques for characterization and analysis of the system to determined when information is recoverable, however, still typically rely on closed-form solution techniques such as singular value decomposition or a filter cutoff, for example. In this letter we pose optimization approaches to broaden the approach to system characterization. We start by deriving conditions for when each unknown element of a system admits a unique solution, subject to a broad class of types of prior knowledge. With this approach we can pose a convex optimization problem to find "how unique" each element of the solution is, which may be viewed as a generalization of resolution to incorporate prior knowledge. We find that the result varies with the unknown vector itself, i.e. is data-dependent, such as when the sparsity of the solution improves the chance it can be uniquely reconstructed. The approach can be used to analyze systems on a case-by-case basis, estimate the amount of important information present in the data, and quantitatively understand the degree to which the regularized solution may be trusted.

description: Computable analysis and effective descriptive set theory are both concerned with complete metric spaces, functions between them and subsets thereof in an effective setting. The precise relationship of the various definitions used in the two disciplines has so far been neglected, a situation this paper is meant to remedy. As the role of the Cauchy completion is relevant for both effective approaches to Polish spaces, we consider the interplay of effectivity and completion in some more detail.

Generalizing the Network Scale-Up Method: A New Estimator for the Size of Hidden Populations

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014

description: The network scale-up method enables researchers to estimate the size of hidden populations, such as drug injectors and sex workers, using sampled social network data. The basic scale-up estimator offers advantages over other size estimation techniques, but it depends on problematic modeling assumptions. We propose a new generalized scale-up estimator that can be used in settings with non-random social mixing and imperfect awareness about membership in the hidden population. Further, the new estimator can be used when data are collected via complex sample designs and from incomplete sampling frames. However, the generalized scale-up estimator also requires data from two samples: one from the frame population and one from the hidden population. In some situations these data from the hidden population can be collected by adding a small number of questions to already planned studies. For other situations, we develop interpretable adjustment factors that can be applied to the basic scale-up estimator. We conclude with practical recommendations for the design and analysis of future studies.
Analysis of Reservoir Recreation Benefits

Year: 1967

description: Abstract:
Recreation visitation to two Kentucky reservoirs (Rough River and Dewey) constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was studied to develop mathematical expressions for estimating numbers of visitors and recreation benefits. Regression analysis was used to relate characteristics of 168 origin areas (120 Kentucky counties, the District of Columbia, and the remaining states excluding Hawaii and Alaska) to visitation from that area to Rough River Reservoir. The resulting equations were then applied to Dewey to test their generality. Good results were obtained when only air distance and population were used as the independent variables. Correlations including the age and income of the population, urbanization, highway quality, and competition from other reservoirs did not significantly improve the results for Rough River and resulted in a worse correlation when applied to Dewey.
Recreation benefits from the two reservoirs were estimated from a demand curve where the cost of effective travel distance was used to estimate price and the regression equation was used to estimate visitation. The effective or out-of-the-way distance (as contrasted with total distance) to the reservoir was estimated from collected data. The area under the demand curve equals the resulting benefits associated with the origin area and attributed to the reservoir.
Funding information: "The Analysis of Reservoir Recreation Benefits" is based on research performed as part of a project entitled "The Economic Impact of Flood Control Reservoirs" (OWRR Project No. A-006-KY) sponsored by the University of Kentucky Water Resources Institute and supported in part by funds provided by the United States Department of the Interior as authorized under the Water Resources Research Act of 1964, Public Law 88-379.

The result contains all general relativistic effects up to second order that arise from observing on the past light cone, including all redshift effects, lensing distortions from convergence and shear, and contributions from velocities, Sachs-Wolfe, integrated SW and time-delay terms. This result will be important for accurate calculation of the bias on estimates of non-Gaussianity and on precision parameter estimates, introduced by nonlinear projection effects.

description: We investigate prototypical profiles of point defects in two dimensional liquid crystals within the framework of Landau-de Gennes theory. Using boundary conditions characteristic of defects of index $k/2$, we find a critical point of the Landau-de Gennes energy that is characterised by a system of ordinary differential equations. In the deep nematic regime, $b^2$ small, we prove that this critical point is the unique global minimiser of the Landau-de Gennes energy. We investigate in greater detail the regime of vanishing elastic constant $L \to 0$, where we obtain three explicit point defect profiles, including the global minimiser.

 Diagnosis. This is the nineteenth species of Xenos to be described from Mesoamerica and the first from Mexico. The new species is distinguished by short, pointed maxillary palpi which fits in a socket of the basal segment. The aedeagus, with pointed anterior and posterior heads and a hump on the dorsal posterior region, and the lengths of the pro­and mesothorax, are more than a third of the length of the metathorax.
 The new species can be distinguished from X. zikani which has no basal maxilla segment, a long palpus which is 1/8 shorter than mandibles (X. hamiltoni has a long basal segment and very short palpus), R3 arising close to R4 and R5 is absent in the wing (R3 not arising close to R4 and R5 present in X. hamiltoni) and hump on dorsal posterior of aedeagus absent.
 Etymology. The new species is named after the late Bill Hamilton FRS, who inspired us to study the behavioural ecology of the Strepsiptera family Stylopidae.

description: In the study "The Textual Dimension Involved-Informational", algorithms and their application to corpora of the English Language will be presented. A ground-breaking study predestined to be exhaustively transferred to computer-aided linguistics is presented in Douglas Biber's "Variation across speech and writing" (1988) which describes a way to establish a general typology of English texts. In his study, Biber derives a so-called multi-dimensional (MD) approach to typology based on the frequency of specific grammatical phenomena. The study at hand will focus on the dimension "Involved-Informational". The first chapter deals with the establishing of a completely automatic and modularized computer system written in the programming language PERL, that is able to process any given 'raw' text and produce CSV (comma separated values) files of feature occurrences of the 30 features listed by Biber (1989: 8). The second chapter describes its application on text corpora of English, such as the commonly used LOB/FLOB and BROWN/FROWN corpus pairs as representatives of written English, and the less commonly analyzed corpora of spoken English SEC and COLT.

description: In order to have a better understanding of finite random matrices with non-Gaussian entries, we study the $1/N$ expansion of local eigenvalue statistics in both the bulk and at the hard edge of the spectrum of random matrices. This gives valuable information about the smallest singular value not seen in universality laws. In particular, we show the dependence on the fourth moment (or the kurtosis) of the entries. This work makes use of the so-called complex Gaussian divisible ensembles for both Wigner and sample covariance matrices.

description: Melanoma is responsible for more than half of the deaths related to skin cancer in the last few decades. A dual-modality optical biopsy system with Raman spectroscopy and optical coherence tomography approach was built with the goal of achieving noninvasive skin measurement. To mimic melanoma and evaluate the effect of melanin on skin, models have been created by dissolving synthetic melanin in dimethyl sulfoxide and adding it to fresh skin samples. Compared to the untreated samples, morphological images showed that the imaging depth on melanin-treated skin has been increased from 250 μm to 350 μm due to the optical clearing effect of the DMSO solvent, and Raman analysis revealed that relative spectral intensities of melanin-treated samples were lower in the amide-I and CH2-deformation bands, and higher in the CH2-twist and C–C stretch bands. Using machine learning for skin type classification, an accuracy of 89% is achieved.

description: Given a null-homologous knot $K$ in a rational homology 3-sphere $M$, and the standard infinite cyclic covering $\tilde{X}$ of $(M,K)$, we define an invariant of triples of curves in $\tilde{X}$, by means of equivariant triple intersections of surfaces. We prove that this invariant provides a map $ϕ$ on $\Al^{\otimes 3}$, where $\Al$ is the Alexander module of $(M,K)$, and that the isomorphism class of $ϕ$ is an invariant of the pair $(M,K)$. For a fixed Blanchfield module $(\Al,\bl)$, we consider pairs $(M,K)$ whose Blanchfield modules are isomorphic to $(\Al,\bl)$, equipped with a marking, {\em i.e.} a fixed isomorphism from $(\Al,\bl)$ to the Blanchfield module of $(M,K)$. In this setting, we compute the variation of $ϕ$ under null borromean surgeries, and we describe the set of all maps $ϕ$. Finally, we prove that the map $ϕ$ is a finite type invariant of degree 1 of marked pairs $(M,K)$ with respect to null Lagrangian-preserving surgeries, and we determine the space of all degree 1 invariants of marked pairs $(M,K)$ with rational values.

description: Sphagnum cultivation is a type of paludiculture and a way to use formerly drained peatlands productively but under wet and therefore climate-friendly conditions. Where Sphagnum mosses are cultivated other plant species will also establish and possibly compete with the Sphagnum. The aim of this study was to determine which factors influence vascular plant cover as well as plant species numbers at Sphagnum cultivation sites and to derive recommendations for their management. Two cultivation sites were studied in northwest Germany. One of these was established directly after peat extraction while the other was rewetted seven years prior to establishment. Irrigation ditches for water management were installed at both sites. The cover of vascular plants and the number of plant species present were determined in systematically positioned plots. Six variables were tested for their influence on the assessed data by applying boosted regression tree models. The main factors influencing vascular plant cover at the two Sphagnum cultivation sites were the distance to an irrigation ditch (m), the site (location) and Sphagnum cover (%). The number of species per plot was influenced mainly by Sphagnum cover (%), the distance to an irrigation ditch (m) and the donor species used for initiating the cultivation sites. A sufficient supply of nutrient-poor water and optimal Sphagnum growth can reduce vascular plant cover and the number of plant species potentially present at a site. Insufficient water distribution and uneven Sphagnum establishment lead to inhomogeneous site conditions and thus to a higher number of plant species. The number and cover of plant species at a cultivation site are influenced by the vegetation of the sites’ surroundings and the selection of the donor site.
Balancing Covariates via Propensity Score Weighting

description: Covariate balance is crucial for unconfounded descriptive or causal comparisons. However, lack of balance is common in observational studies. This article considers weighting strategies for balancing covariates. We define a general class of weights---the balancing weights---that balance the weighted distributions of the covariates between treatment groups. These weights incorporate the propensity score to weight each group to an analyst-selected target population. This class unifies existing weighting methods, including commonly used weights such as inverse-probability weights as special cases. General large-sample results on nonparametric estimation based on these weights are derived. We further propose a new weighting scheme, the overlap weights, in which each unit's weight is proportional to the probability of that unit being assigned to the opposite group. The overlap weights are bounded, and minimize the asymptotic variance of the weighted average treatment effect among the class of balancing weights. The overlap weights also possess a desirable small-sample exact balance property, based on which we propose a new method that achieves exact balance for means of any selected set of covariates. Two applications illustrate these methods and compare them with other approaches.

description: We consider the linearization of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DN) map as a function of the potential. We show that it is injective at a real analytic potential for measurements made at an open subset of analyticity of the boundary. More generally, we relate the analyticity up to the boundary of the variations of the potential to the analyticity of the symbols of the corresponding variations of the DN-map.

 Type­species: Autolyca pentlandi Redtenbacher, 1906: 96, by original designation of Conle & Hennemann, 2002: 91.
 Mainly based on the type­locality “ Chile ” Conle & Hennemann (2002: 99) transferred Autolyca picturata Redtenbacher, 1906 to Peruphasma, but the holotype in MNHN had not been examined at that time. Subsequent examination has shown this species to be a member of Autolyca Stål, 1875 and the type­locality to be clearly wrong. Undoubtedly the specimen is from Central America (e.g. El Salvador). Thus, A. picturata is excluded from the list of species currently placed in Peruphasma Conle & Hennemann.

description: In this paper we study the topology of the stack $\mathcal{T}_g$ of smooth trigonal curves of genus g, over the complex field. We make use of a construction by the first named author and Vistoli, that describes $\mathcal{T}_g$ as a quotient stack of the complement of the discriminant. This allows us to use techniques developed by the second named author to give presentations of the orbifold fundamental group of $\mathcal{T}_g$, of its substrata with prescribed Maroni invariant and describe their relation with the mapping class group $\mathcal{M}ap_g$ of Riemann surfaces of genus g.

description: Frequency dependent scattering rate of generalized Drude model contains important physics of the electronic structure and of scattering mechanisms. In the present investigation, we study the frequency dependent scattering rate of cuprates (Mitrovic-Fiorucci/ Sharapov-Carbotte scattering rate) in the pseudogap phase using the non-constant energy dependent Yang-Rice-Zhang (YRZ) density of states. First, with the energy dependent density of states, the scattering rate gives the picture of depression formation coming from the opening of the pseudogap. Second, the evolution of $1/τ(ω)$ with temperature shows the increase of scattering rate with the temperature at lower frequencies and the temperature independence of $1/τ(ω)$ at higher frequencies. Third, the signature of thresholds due to boson density of states and the electronic density of states also has been observed. These signatures are qualitatively in accord with the experiments.
