description: For a group $G$ and a finite set $A$, denote by $\text{End}(A^G)$ the monoid of all continuous shift commuting self-maps of $A^G$ and by $\text{Aut}(A^G)$ its group of units. We study the minimal cardinality of a generating set, known as the rank, of $\text{End}(A^G)$ and $\text{Aut}(A^G)$. In the first part, when $G$ is a finite group, we give upper and lower bounds for the rank of $\text{Aut}(A^G)$ in terms of the number of conjugacy classes of subgroups of $G$. In the second part, we apply our bounds to show that if $G$ has an infinite descending chain of normal subgroups of finite index, then $\text{End}(A^G)$ is not finitely generated; such is the case for wide classes of infinite groups, such as infinite residually finite or infinite locally graded groups.

description: We theoretically investigate electron spin injection and spin-polarization sensitive current detection at Schottky contacts between a ferromagnetic metal and an n-type or p-type semiconductor. We use spin-dependent continuity equations and transport equations at the drift-diffusion level of approximation. Spin-polarized electron current and density in the semiconductor are described for four scenarios corresponding to the injection or the collection of spin polarized electrons at Schottky contacts to n-type or p-type semiconductors. The transport properties of the interface are described by a spin-dependent interface resistance, resulting from an interfacial tunneling region. The spin-dependent interface resistance is crucial for achieving spin injection or spin polarization sensitivity in these configurations. We find that the depletion region resulting from Schottky barrier formation at a metal/semiconductor interface is detrimental to both spin injection and spin detection. However, the depletion region can be tailored using a doping density profile to minimize these deleterious effects. For example, a heavily doped region near the interface, such as a delta-doped layer, can be used to form a sharp potential profile through which electrons tunnel to reduce the effective Schottky energy barrier that determines the magnitude of the depletion region. The model results indicate that efficient spin-injection and spin-polarization detection can be achieved in properly designed structures and can serve as a guide for the structure design.

description: The purpose of this study is to investigate comparative advantages of corn in comparison with other competitor crops. To do so, Linear Programming, to 2004-2005 data related to classic index (DRC) in Kermanshah province was applied. Results showed that corn has comparative advantages in all regions of Kermanshah province while in optimal cultivation pattern of 37.5 percentages of regions in existence of rotation and 50 percentages of regions in lack of rotation, corn acreage has been increased. In addition, comparing optimal cultivation pattern resulted from linear programming models with crops ranking based on comparative advantage indices indicated that, resources availability and limitations, tradable and non-tradable inputs costs and yield will lead to shift in production’s comparative advantage from one crop to another. Factors such as supporting policies and rotation might also have effects on comparative advantages and optimal cultivating pattern.

description: We consider wavelets in L^2(R^d) which have generalized multiresolutions. This means that the initial resolution subspace V_0 in L^2(R^d) is not singly generated. As a result, the representation of the integer lattice Z^d restricted to V_0 has a nontrivial multiplicity function. We show how the corresponding analysis and synthesis for these wavelets can be understood in terms of unitary-matrix-valued functions on a torus acting on a certain vector bundle. Specifically, we show how the wavelet functions on R^d can be constructed directly from the generalized wavelet filters.

description: The Farmers of the Future (FoF) initiative implemented a programme of integrating natural resources management in the basic education curriculum. The purpose of the study was to document activities and determine the effects of FoF programme on primary school learners’ perceptions towards natural resources management by comparing learners involved in the FoF programme and those not involved. Further, comparison of perceptions by gender among learners involved in the FoF was done. The study employed an ex-post-facto design. The location of the study was the western region of Kenya. The sample was composed of 120 learners and 6 teachers, making a total of 126 respondents. This was in accordance with recommendations by Kathuri and Pals (1993). The data were collected using questionnaires and analysed using t-test at alpha = 0.05. The instruments were validated by two experts in the Department of Agricultural Education and Extension at Egerton University and one expert from ICRAF. Reliability was tested through pilot testing and indicated a reliability coefficient of 0.72 The findings indicated that the FoF programme had a significant influence on learners’ positive perceptions towards natural resources management thus the programme forms an integral part in sustainable agriculture.

description: This paper explains the economic conception of water - how economists think about water. It consists of two main sections. First, it reviews the economic concept of value, explains how it is measured, and discusses how this has been applied to water in various ways. Then it considers the debate regarding whether or not water can, or should, be treated as an economic commodity, and discusses the ways in which water is the same as, or different than, other commodities from an economic point of view. While there are some distinctive emotive and symbolic features of water, there are also some distinctive economic features that make the demand and supply of water different and more complex than that of most other goods.

description: The Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches (GNOME) is a network of time-synchronized, geographically separated, optically pumped atomic magnetometers that is being used to search for correlated transient signals heralding exotic physics. GNOME is sensitive to exotic couplings of atomic spins to certain classes of dark matter candidates, such as axions. This work presents a data analysis procedure to search for axion dark matter in the form of topological defects: specifically, walls separating domains of discrete degenerate vacua in the axion field. An axion domain wall crossing the Earth creates a distinctive signal pattern in the network that can be distinguished from random noise. The reliability of the analysis procedure and the sensitivity of the GNOME to domain-wall crossings is studied using simulated data.

Muon $g-2$ in Higgs-anomaly mediation

description: A simple model for the explanation of the muon anomalous magnetic moment was proposed by the present authors within the context of the minimal supersymmetric standard model [1607.05705, 1608.06618]: "Higgs-anomaly mediation". In the setup, squarks, sleptons, and gauginos are massless at tree-level, but the Higgs doublets get large negative soft supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking masses squared $m_{H_u}^2 \simeq m_{H_d}^2 < 0$ at a certain energy scale, $M_{\rm inp}$. The sfermion masses are radiatively generated by anomaly mediation and Higgs-loop effects, and gaugino masses are solely determined by anomaly mediation. Consequently, the smuons and bino are light enough to explain the muon $g-2$ anomaly while the third generation sfermions are heavy enough to explain the observed Higgs boson mass. The scenario avoids the SUSY flavor problem as well as various cosmological problems, and is consistent with the radiative electroweak symmetry breaking. In this paper, we show that, although the muon $g-2$ explanation in originally proposed Higgs-anomaly mediation with $M_{\rm inp}\sim 10^{16}\,$GeV is slightly disfavored by the latest LHC data, the muon $g-2$ can still be explained at $1σ$ level when Higgs mediation becomes important at the intermediate scale, $M_{\rm inp} \sim 10^{12}\,$GeV. The scenario predicts light SUSY particles that can be fully covered by the LHC and future collider experiments. We also provide a simple realization of $m_{H_u}^2 \simeq m_{H_d}^2 < 0$ at the intermediate scale.

description: We analyze in detail the case of a marginally stable D-Brane on a collapsed del Pezzo surface in a Calabi-Yau threefold using the derived category of quiver representations and the idea of aligned gradings. We show how the derived category approach to D-branes provides a straight-forward and rigorous construction of quiver gauge theories associated to such singularities. Our method shows that a procedure involving exceptional collections used elsewhere in the literature is only valid if some tachyon-inducing Ext3 groups are zero. We then analyze in generality a large class of Seiberg dualities which arise from tilting equivalences. It follows that some (but not all) mutations of exceptional collections induce Seiberg duality in this context. The same tilting equivalence can also be used to remove unwanted Ext3 groups and convert an unphysical quiver into a physical one.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: This paper concerns twisted signature invariants of knots and 3-manifolds. In the fibered case, we reduce the computation of these invariants to the study of the intersection form and monodromy on the twisted homology of the fiber surface. Along the way, we use rings of power series to obtain new interpretations of the twisted Milnor pairing introduced by Kirk and Livingston. This allows us to relate these pairings to twisted Blanchfield pairings. Finally, we study the resulting signature invariants, all of which are twisted generalisations of the Levine-Tristram signature.

description: Spiral chaos appears in the two dimensional Aliev-Panfilov model. The generation mechanism of the spiral chaos is related to the breathing instability of pulse trains. The spiral chaos can be eliminated by applying periodic force uniformly. The elimination of spiral chaos is most effective, when the frequency of the periodic force is close to that of the breathing motion.

Scattering Activities Bounded by Reciprocity and Parity Conservation

description: Scattering activities are generally manifest through different optical responses of scattering bodies to circularly polarized light of opposite handedness. Similar to the ubiquitous roles played by scattering theory across different branches of photonics, scattering activities can serve as a fundamental concept to clarify underlying mechanisms of various chiroptical effects, both within and beyond scattering systems. In this work we investigate scattering activities for reciprocal systems that exhibit various geometric symmetries but are intrinsically achiral. We reveal how scattering activities are generally bounded by reciprocity and parity conservation, demonstrating that though extinction activity is usually eliminated by symmetry, scattering activities in forms of distinct absorptions, scatterings or angular scattering patterns can more widely emerge. Since our analyses are solely based on fundamental laws of reciprocity and parity conservation, regardless of geometric and optical parameters of the scattering systems studied, the principles revealed are generically applicable. The intuitive and pictorial framework we have established is beyond any specific coupling models, able to reveal hidden connections between seemingly unrelated chiral manifestations, and thus more accessible for a unified understanding of various chiroptical effects.

description: We develop an epsilon-controlled algebraic L-theory, extending our earlier work on epsilon-controlled algebraic K-theory. The controlled L-theory is very close to being a generalized homology theory; we study analogues of the homology exact sequence of a pair, excision properties, and the Mayer--Vietoris exact sequence. As an application we give a controlled L-theory proof of the classic theorem of Novikov on the topological invariance of the rational Pontrjagin classes.

Tidal evolution of circumbinary systems with arbitrary eccentricities: applications for Kepler systems

description: We present an extended version of the Constant Time Lag analytical approach for the tidal evolution of circumbinary planets introduced in our previous work. The model is self-consistent, in the sense that all tidal interactions between pairs are computed, regardless of their size. We derive analytical expressions for the variational equations governing the spin and orbital evolution, which are expressed as high-order elliptical expansions in the semimajor axis ratio but retain closed form in terms of the binary and planetary eccentricities. These are found to reproduce the results of the numerical simulations with arbitrary eccentricities very well, as well as reducing to our previous results in the low-eccentric case. Our model is then applied to the well-characterised Kepler circumbinary systems by analysing the tidal timescales and unveiling the tidal flow around each different system. In all cases we find that the spins reach stationary values much faster than the characteristic timescale of the orbital evolution, indicating that all Kepler circumbinary planets are expected to be in a sub-synchronous state. On the other hand, all systems are located in a tidal flow leading to outward migration; thus the proximity of the planets to the orbital instability limit may have been even greater in the past. Additionally, Kepler systems may have suffered a significant tidally induced eccentricity damping, which may be related to their proximity to the capture eccentricity. To help understand the predictions of our model, we also offer a simple geometrical interpretation of our results.

Negative heat capacity of sodium clusters

description: Heat capacities of Na_N, N = 13, 20, 55, 135, 142, and 147, clusters have been investigated using a many-body Gupta potential and microcanonical molecular dynamics simulations. Negative heat capacities around the cluster melting-like transition have been obtained for N = 135, 142, and 147, but the smaller clusters (N = 13, 20, and 55) do not show this peculiarity. By performing a survey of the cluster potential energy landscape (PEL), it is found that the width of the distribution function of the kinetic energy and the spread of the distribution of potential energy minima (isomers), are useful features to determine the different behavior of the heat capacity as a function of the cluster size. The effect of the range of the interatomic forces is studied by comparing the heat capacities of the Na_55 and Cd_55 clusters. It is shown that by decreasing the range of the many-body interaction, the distribution of isomers characterizing the PEL is modified appropriately to generate a negative heat capacity in the Cd_55 cluster.

description: This study assessed the potential economic and poverty impact of 11 improved chickpea varieties released by the national agricultural research organization of Ethiopia in collaboration with the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics. The economic surplus model applied estimated a total benefit of US$ 111 million for 30 years. Consumers are estimated to get 39% of the benefit and producers 61%. The benefit cost ratio was estimated at 5:1 and an internal rate of return of 55%, indicating that the investment is profitable. The generated benefit is expected to lift more than 0.7 million people (both producers and consumers) out of poverty. Thus, further investments in the chickpea and other legume research in Ethiopia is justified as a means of poverty alleviation.
Evolution of a localized electron spin in a nuclear spin environment

description: Motivated by recent interest in the role of the hyperfine interaction in quantum dots we study the dynamics of a localized electron spin coupled to many nuclei. An important feature of the model is that the coupling to an individual nuclear spin depends on its position in the quantum dot. We introduce a semi-classical description of the system valid in the limit of a large number of nuclei and analyze the resulting classical dynamics. Contrary to a natural assumption, the correlation functions of electron spin with an arbitrary initial condition show no decay in time. Rather, they exhibit complicated undamped oscillations. This may be attributed to the fact that the system has many integrals of motion and is close to an integrable one. The ensemble averaged correlation functions do exhibit a slow decay (1/ln(t)) for t -> \infty.

description: The purpose of this paper is to report preliminary findings of a comprehensive study of multifunctional farming operations in New England. The study shows that small farmers are involved in multifunctional activities that allow them to use existing resources to supplement their farming operations. The study clearly shows that small farmers are involved in broadening, deepening and re-grounding activities including direct sales, value added, agritourism and off farm income endeavors. The study provides much needed insight and specification into these actitives and provides important new implications for academics, practitioners and policy makers locally, regionally and nationally.

description: New Generation Cooperatives (NGCs) are undergoing several structural changes with the acceptance of non-farmer investor equity and demutualization or transformation into investororiented ownerships, Limited Liability Companies (LLCs), to ameliorate perceived financial constraints for high technology investments. Using data of stock traded between members, we developed a model of investment decision and analyzed the impacts of expectations of change in growth and social capital, among other variables, on NGC and LLC performance. The findings show the importance of expectations of change in growth on firms’ performance for NGCs compared to LLCs. Social capital arising from market transactions play a significant role in building loyalty among current investors and in attracting additional infusion of equity capital for NGCs.
Braid monodromy of univariate fewnomials

Subjects: subject: Algebraic Geometry (math.AG)

description: Let $\mathcal{C}_d\subset \mathbb{C}^{d+1}$ be the space of non-singular, univariate polynomials of degree $d$. The Viète map $\mathscr{V} : \mathcal{C}_d \rightarrow Sym_d(\mathbb{C})$ sends a polynomial to its unordered set of roots. It is a classical fact that the induced map $\mathscr{V}_*$ at the level of fundamental groups realises an isomorphism between $π_1(\mathcal{C}_d)$ and the Artin braid group $B_d$. For fewnomials, or equivalently for the intersection $\mathcal{C}$ of $\mathcal{C}_d$ with a collection of coordinate hyperplanes in $\mathbb{C}^{d+1}$, the image of the map $\mathscr{V} _* : π_1(\mathcal{C}) \rightarrow B_d$ is not known in general. In the present paper, we show that the map $\mathscr{V} _*$ is surjective provided that the support of the corresponding polynomials spans $\mathbb{Z}$ as an affine lattice. If the support spans a strict sublattice of index $b$, we show that the image of $\mathscr{V} _*$ is the expected wreath product of $\mathbb{Z}/b\mathbb{Z}$ with $B_{d/b}$. From these results, we derive an application to the computation of the braid monodromy for collections of univariate polynomials depending on a common set of parameters.

description: This study utilizes comparisons and Probit regression analysis to determine the influence of previous migrations and other variables on the likelihood of future migrations of agricultural loan credit risk. The Farm Credit System association data set contains a large number of lender risk-rated agricultural loans. The lender risk ratings used are less likely to migrate than ratings based on credit score proxies. The results indicate that the direction of previous migrations significantly influences future migrations in a trendreversal pattern. Forecasting future migrations remains difficult even though the marginal effect of a previous migration on the likelihood of a future migration is quite large.
