description: We develop a framework to incorporate exchange rates into a differential demand system and apply it to U.S. demand for fresh tomatoes by country of origin. We find evidence of incomplete exchange-rate pass-through involving Mexico. Results indicate that accusations of dumping by American agricultural groups in 1995–1996 coincide with the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the peso in 1994–1995. Traditional modeling approaches that do not account for exchangerate effects would not capture the distinction between dumping and changes in relative prices, leading to the conclusion that too many tomatoes were being imported from Mexico.
title: Phytoplankton ecology and production of the Red Sea off Jiddah, Saudi Arabia
Creators: name: Shaikh, Essam Abid
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1982

description: The Red Sea, being a landlocked, semi-enclosed body of water located in an arid zone where evaporation is far in excess of precipitation and run-off, offers a unique ecosystem from the tropical region. During 1977-78 off Jiddah, physical, chemical and biological data were collected at an eutrophicated inshore Sharm station and a relatively unpolluted offshore station. The prevailing high temperatures, high salinity and lack of land drainage resulted in highly stratified dense waters with little or no vertical admixture. There was not always an abundant supply of nutrients in these waters but, due to monsoonal activity, domes of high phosphate, silicates, nitrates and ammonia were noticed both in the offshore and inshore waters. Biological production, measured as phytoplankton cell numbers, chlorophyll a and primary production, also increased usually with a time-lag between the nutrients and production. Depending on the monsoonal currents, periodic recruitment and exchange of Red Sea component, Mediterranean component. Nile estuarine component and Indo-Pacific components of phytoplankton takes place. The annual phytoplankton cycle follows a bimodal pattern with the peaks of production coinciding with the activity of the monsoons. The magnitude of production was higher in the offshore waters and the production in the study area was higher than in several temperate and tropical waters. The high carbon assimilation ratios suggest a high efficiency of photosynthesis characteristic of sun-adapted phytoplankton. Based on the photosynthetic production, it is speculated that a rich fishery potential exists in the Red Sea.

description: The Exact Affine Stone Index (EASI) demand model offers distinct advantages over its predecessors. However, it does not account for pre-committed demand. This can bias elasticity estimates when such pre-commitments are present. We derive a generalized EASI model that allows for pre-committed demand. We illustrate the advantage of this model in an empirical analysis of food demand in Russia using provincial-level panel data. The results provide strong empirical evidence for the presence of pre-committed demand for key food commodities. The findings extend the literature on food demand in Russia by estimating elasticities that account for pre-commitments and unobserved regional heterogeneity.

description: Sales taxes on either grocery food or restaurant food exist in almost every U.S. county. By combining county-level sales tax data with the USDA’s recent national household food acquisition and purchase survey, we examine how a food sales tax affects consumers’ expenditures on grocery and restaurant food.We find that a grocery tax reduces consumers’ grocery food expenditures and increases restaurant food expenditure and a restaurant food sales tax increases consumers’ grocery food expenditures. We also find no differential impacts from food sales taxes based on consumers’ income or participation status in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

description: Robustness to out-of-distribution (OOD) data is an important goal in building reliable machine learning systems. Especially in autonomous systems, wrong predictions for OOD inputs can cause safety critical situations. As a first step towards a solution, we consider the problem of detecting such data in a value-based deep reinforcement learning (RL) setting. Modelling this problem as a one-class classification problem, we propose a framework for uncertainty-based OOD classification: UBOOD. It is based on the effect that an agent's epistemic uncertainty is reduced for situations encountered during training (in-distribution), and thus lower than for unencountered (OOD) situations. Being agnostic towards the approach used for estimating epistemic uncertainty, combinations with different uncertainty estimation methods, e.g. approximate Bayesian inference methods or ensembling techniques are possible. We further present a first viable solution for calculating a dynamic classification threshold, based on the uncertainty distribution of the training data. Evaluation shows that the framework produces reliable classification results when combined with ensemble-based estimators, while the combination with concrete dropout-based estimators fails to reliably detect OOD situations. In summary, UBOOD presents a viable approach for OOD classification in deep RL settings by leveraging the epistemic uncertainty of the agent's value function.

title: The reconstruction of planar graphs
Creators: name: Lauri, J
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1981

description: The object of this thesis is to investigate the Reconstruction Problem for planar graphs. This study naturally leads to related topics concerning certain nonplanar graphs and the use of their embeddings on appropriate surfaces to reconstruct them. The principal aim of this work is to find new techniques of reconstruction and to increase the number of classes of graphs known to be reconstructible. In achieving this aim, various important properties of graphs, such as connectivity and uniqueness of embeddings, are explored, and new results on these topics are obtained. Part I, which consists of three chapters, contains a historic a l, non-technical introduction and general graph-theoretical definitions, notation and results. Some new concepts in reconstruction are also presented, notably the idea of reconstructor sets. Part II of the thesis deals with the vertex-reconstruction of maximal planar graphs: Chapter 4 is concerned with the vertex-recognition of maximal planarity, whereas Chapter 5 deals with the vertex-reconstruction. Part III deals with edge-reconstruction: planar graphs with minimum valency 5 and 4-connected planar graphs are reconstructed in Chapters 6 and 7 respectively. In Chapter 7, extensive use is made of the concept of reconstructor sets introduced in Chapter 3. This chapter also contains a brief discussion on the reconstruction of graphs from edge-contracted subgraphs, a problem which, in certain cases, can be regarded as dual to the Edge-reconstruction Problem. Part IV is concerned with extending the results and techniques of the previous chapters to nonplanar graphs. Chapter 8 discusses where the previous techniques fa il, and indicates where new methods are needed. In Chapter 9, all graphs which triangulate some surface and have connectivity 3 are edge-reconstructed. Certain graphs which triangulate the torus or the projective plane are also shown to be weakly vertex-reconstructible. Chapter 10 deals with the edge-reconstruction of all graphs which triangulate the projective plane. The Appendix proves a conjecture of Harary on the cutvertex-reconstruction of trees. One technique used here ties up with a method employed in previous chapters on edge-reconstruction.

We single out the reservoir and system variables governing the passage between Lindblad type and non-Lindblad type dynamics of the reduced system's oscillator. We demonstrate the existence of conditions under which virtual exchanges of energy between system and reservoir take place. We propose to use a single trapped ion coupled to engineered reservoirs in order to simulate quantum Brownian motion.

description: Context: Cygnus X-1 is a black hole X-ray binary system in which the black hole captures and accretes gas from the strong stellar wind emitted by its supergiant O9.7 companion star. The irradiation of the supergiant star essentially determines the flow properties of the stellar wind and the X-ray luminosity from the system. The results of three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of wind-fed X-ray binary systems reported in recent work reveal that the ionizing feedback of the X-ray irradiation leads to the existence of two stable states with either a soft or a hard spectrum. Aims: We discuss the observed radiation of Cygnus X-1 in the soft and hard state in the context of mass flow in the corona and disk, as predicted by the recent application of a condensation model. Methods: The rates of gas condensation from the corona to the disk for Cygnus X-1 are determined, and the spectra of the hard and soft radiation are computed. The theoretical results are compared with the MAXI observations of Cygnus X-1 from 2009 to 2018. In particular, we evaluate the hardness-intensity diagrams (HIDs) for its ten episodes of soft and hard states which show that Cygnus X-1 is distinct in its spectral changes as compared to those found in the HIDs of low-mass X-ray binaries. Results: The theoretically derived values of photon counts and hardness are in approximate agreement with the observed data in the HID. However, the scatter in the diagram is not reproduced. Improved agreement could result from variations in the viscosity associated with clumping in the stellar wind and corresponding changes of the magnetic fields in the disk. The observed dipping events in the hard state may also contribute to the scatter and to a harder spectrum than predicted by the model.

description: The positions of atoms forming a carbon nanotube are usually described by using a system of generators of the symmetry group. Each atomic position corresponds to an element of the set Z X {0,1,...,n} X {0,1}, where n is a natural number depending on the considered nanotube. We obtain an alternate rather different description by starting from a description of the honeycomb lattice in terms of Miller indices. In our mathematical model which is a factor space defined by an equivalence relation in the set {(v_0,v_1,v_2)\in Z^3 | v_0+v_1+v_2\in {0,1}} the neighbours of an atomic position can be described in a simpler way, and the mathematical objects with geometric or physical significance have a simpler and more symmetric form.

description: This study evaluates the differences between the Exact Affine Stone Index (EASI) demand model estimates obtained using Consumer Expenditure Survey (CEX) data and Nielsen Homescan data. Results indicated that elasticities obtained from CEX and Homescan data–based demand models differ not only statistically but also economically. Own-price elasticities obtained from the CEX data–based demand model were more inelastic than those obtained from the demand model estimated using Homescan data. Further, differences between expenditure elasticities did not follow a specific pattern. We found evidence suggesting that the main source of differences is the price index used for the estimation.

description: We have followed the evolution of multi-mass star clusters containing massive central black holes through collisional N-body simulations done on GRAPE6. Each cluster is composed of between 16,384 to 131,072 stars together with a black hole with an initial mass of M_BH=1000 Msun. We follow the evolution of the clusters under the combined influence of two-body relaxation, stellar mass-loss and tidal disruption of stars. The (3D) mass density profile follows a power-law distribution ρ\sim r^{-α} with slope α=1.55. This leads to a constant density profile of bright stars in projection, which makes it highly unlikely that core collapse clusters contain intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs). Instead globular clusters containing IMBHs can be fitted with standard King profiles. The disruption rate of stars is too small to form an IMBH out of a M_BH \approx 50 Msun progenitor black hole, unless a cluster starts with a central density significantly higher than what is seen in globular clusters. Kinematical studies can reveal 1000 Msun IMBHs in the closest clusters. IMBHs in globular clusters are only weak X-ray sources since the tidal disruption rate of stars is low and the star closest to the IMBH is normally another black hole. For globular clusters, dynamical evolution can push compact stars near the IMBH to distances small enough that they become detectable through gravitational radiation. If 10% of all globular clusters contain IMBHs, extragalactic globular clusters could be one of the major sources for {\it LISA}. (abridged)

description: We present a comprehensive study of the temperature (T) dependence of the longitudinal spin Seebeck effect (LSSE) in Pt/EuO_{1-x} and Pt/La2NiMnO6 (LNMO) hybrid structures across their Curie temperatures (Tc). Both systems host ferromagnetic interaction below Tc, hence present optimal conditions for testing magnon spin current based theories against ferrimagnetic YIG. Notably, we observe an anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) generated voltage in bare EuO_{1-x}, however, we find LSSE predominates the thermal signals in the bilayers with Pt. The T-dependence of the LSSE in small T-range near Tc could be fitted to a power law of the form (Tc-T)^P. The derived critical exponent, P, was verified for different methods of LSSE representation and sample crystallinity. The results are explained based on the magnon-driven thermal spin pumping mechanism that relate the T-dependence of LSSE to the spin mixing conductance (Gmix) at the heavy metal/ferromagnet (HM/FM) interface, which in turn is known to vary in accordance with the square of the spontaneous magnetization (Ms). Additionally, the T-dependence of the real part of Gmix derived from spin Hall magnetoresistance measurements at different temperatures for the Pt/LNMO structure, further establish the interdependence.

description: Wave-particle instabilities driven by departures from local thermodynamic equilibrium have been conjectured to play a role in governing solar wind dynamics. We calculate the statistical variation of linear stability over a large subset of Helios I and II fast solar wind observations using a numerical evaluation of the Nyquist stability criterion, accounting for multiple sources of free energy associated with protons and helium including temperature anisotropies and relative drifts. We find that 88\% of the surveyed intervals are linearly unstable. The median growth rate of the unstable modes is within an order of magnitude of the turbulent transfer rate, fast enough to potentially impact the turbulent scale-to-scale energy transfer. This rate does not significantly change with radial distance, though the nature of the unstable modes, and which ion components are responsible for driving the instabilities, does vary. The effect of ion-ion collisions on stability is found to be significant; collisionally young wind is much more unstable than collsionally old wind, with very different kinds of instabilities present in the two kinds of wind.

description: Food hubs offer a novel solution to connect small and mid-sized local farms, which individually lack the scale to profitably market their products. Because many food hubs rely on grants and philanthropy to provide services and are not necessarily profit-driven, markets may unintentionally oversaturate due to overinvestment.We use a firm-entry model to estimate the average U.S. county population necessary for one, two, and three food hubs to break even. Our findings suggest that policy makers and philanthropists need to consider the carrying capacity of the local food environment and population prior to supporting additional food hubs.

description: In ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, enormous magnetic fields are generated because of fast-moving charged particles. In the presence of these magnetic fields, the spin of particles is aligned either in the parallel or in the antiparallel direction with respect to the direction of the magnetic field. A finite magnetization is thus produced. It is known that a finite magnetic susceptibility, $χ_{m}$, changes the evolution of the energy density of the quark-gluon plasma (QGP), which is believed to be created in these collisions. Depending on whether the system under consideration is a paramagnetic ($χ_{m}>0$) or diamagnetic ($χ_{m}<0$) fluid, it slows down or speeds up the decay of the energy density, and affects other thermodynamic quantities. In general, one expects that the magnetic susceptibility depends on the magnetic field and temperature. Bearing in mind that these parameters evolve with the evolution of the fluid, a nonuniform magnetic susceptibility in this system is thus expected. In this work, we first determine $χ_{m}$ by using a certain analogy to the standard anisotropic kinetic theory, where the one-particle distribution function is replaced by the corresponding anisotropic distribution function. We then determine the proper time dependence of the magnetic susceptibility in the framework of the ideal transverse magnetohydrodynamics. We also study the effect of dissipation on the evolution of $χ_{m}$.

Determining the interactive capacity is notoriously difficult, and the best known lower bounds are far below the associated Shannon capacity, which serves as a trivial (and also generally the best known) upper bound. This paper considers the more restricted setup of simulating finite-state protocols. It is shown that all two-state protocols, as well as rich families of arbitrary finite-state protocols, can be simulated at the Shannon capacity, establishing the interactive capacity for those families of protocols.

description: In this paper we report the first measurement of $e^+e^- \to D^{(*)+}D^{(*)-}$ processes. The cross-sections for $e^+^e- \to D^{*+}D^{*-}$ and $e^+e^- \to D^+D^{*-}$ at $\sqrt{s}=10.58\mathrm{GeV}/c^2$ have been measured to be $0.65 \pm 0.04 \pm 0.07 \mathrm{pb}$ and $0.71 \pm 0.05 \pm 0.09 \mathrm{pb}$, respectively. We set an upper limit on the cross-section of e+e- --> D+ D- of $0.04 \mathrm{pb}$ at the 90% confidence level. In addition we have measured the fraction of the $D^{*\pm}_T D^{*\mp}_L$ final state in the e+e- --> D*+ D*- reaction to be $(97\pm 5)%$. The analysis is performed using $88.9 \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of data collected by the Belle detector at the $e^{+}e^{-}$ asymmetric collider KEKB.

Model-Independent Constraints on Dark Energy Density from Flux-averaging Analysis of Type Ia Supernova Data

description: We reconstruct the dark energy density $ρ_X(z)$ as a free function from current type Ia supernova (SN Ia) data (Tonry et al. 2003; Barris et al. 2003; Knop et al. 2003), together with the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) shift parameter from CMB data (WMAP, CBI, and ACBAR), and the large scale structure (LSS) growth factor from 2dF galaxy survey data. We parametrize $ρ_X(z)$ as a continuous function, given by interpolating its amplitudes at equally spaced $z$ values in the redshift range covered by SN Ia data, and a constant at larger $z$ (where $ρ_X(z)$ is only weakly constrained by CMB data). We assume a flat universe, and use the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique in our analysis. We find that the dark energy density $ρ_X(z)$ is constant for $0 \la z \la 0.5$ and increases with redshift $z$ for $0.5 \la z \la 1$ at 68.3% confidence level, but is consistent with a constant at 95% confidence level. For comparison, we also give constraints on a constant equation of state for the dark energy. Flux-averaging of SN Ia data is required to yield cosmological parameter constraints that are free of the bias induced by weak gravitational lensing \citep{Wang00b}. We set up a consistent framework for flux-averaging analysis of SN Ia data, based on \cite{Wang00b}. We find that flux-averaging of SN Ia data leads to slightly lower $Ω_m$ and smaller time-variation in $ρ_X(z)$. This suggests that a significant increase in the number of SNe Ia from deep SN surveys on a dedicated telescope \citep{Wang00a} is needed to place a robust constraint on the time-dependence of the dark energy density.

Supersymmetric quantum mechanics on noncommutative space

description: We construct supersymmetric quantum mechanics in terms of two real supercharges on noncommutative space in arbitrary dimensions. We obtain the exact eigenspectra of the two and three dimensional noncommutative superoscillators. We further show that a reduction in the phase-space occurs for a critical surface in the space of parameters. At this critical surface, the energy-spectrum of the bosonic sector is infinitely degenerate, while the degeneracy in the spectrum of the fermionic sector gets enhanced by a factor of two for each pair of reduced canonical coordinates. For the two dimensional noncommutative `inverted superoscillator', we find exact eigenspectra with a well-defined groundstate for certain regions in the parameter space, which have no smooth limit to the ordinary commutative space.

Cosmological parameters and the WMAP data revisited

description: Several recent papers have made claims about the detection of an asymmetric distribution of large scale power in the cosmic microwave background anisotropy as measured by the WMAP satellite. In this paper, we investigate how the estimates of particular cosmological parameters vary when inferred from power spectra computed separately on the northern and southern hemispheres in three frames of reference. We focus our investigation on the three specific parameters to which the analysis is most sensitive, the spectral index n, the amplitude of fluctuations A and the optical depth tau. When using a gaussian prior on the spectral index n centred at n=1 with a flat prior on the optical depth tau, the preferred value for the optical depth (derived in the reference frame of maximum asymmetry) in the north is tau=0 with upper limit tau<0.08, whereas in the south we find tau=0.24 +0.06/-0.07 (68% confidence level). The latter result is inconsistent with tau=0 at the 2 sigma level. The estimated optical depth of tau=0.17 on the (nearly) full sky found by the WMAP collaboration and confirmed independently here, could thus in large part originate in structure associated with the southern hemisphere. Furthermore, putting a prior on tau, we find values of the spectral index which are inconsistent between the opposite hemispheres. The exact values depend on the prior on tau. While our results should not be considered more than suggestive, the significance of the parameter differences in the two hemispheres being typically of order 2 sigma, if they are confirmed with the higher sensitivity WMAP 2-year data then it may be necessary to question the assumption of cosmological isotropy and the conceptual framework within which studies of the CMB anisotropy are made.

Coordinate-space solver for finite-temperature Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculation using the shifted Krylov method

description: In order to study structure of proto-neutron stars and those in subsequent cooling stages, it is of great interest to calculate inhomogeneous hot and cold nuclear matter in a variety of phases. The finite-temperature Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (FT-HFB) theory is a primary choice for this purpose, however, its numerical calculation for superfluid (superconducting) many-fermion systems in three dimensions requires enormous computational costs. To study a variety of phases in the crust of hot and cold neutron stars, we propose an efficient method to perform the FT-HFB calculation with the three-dimensional (3D) coordinate-space representation. Recently, an efficient method based on the contour integral of Green's function with the shifted conjugate-orthogonal conjugate-gradient method has been proposed [Phys. Rev. C 95, 044302 (2017)]. We extend the method to the finite temperature, using the shifted conjugate-orthogonal conjugate-residual method. We benchmark the 3D coordinate-space solver of the FT-HFB calculation for hot isolated nuclei and fcc phase in the inner crust of neutron stars at finite temperature. The computational performance of the present method is demonstrated. Different critical temperatures of the quadrupole and the octupole deformations are confirmed for $^{146}$Ba. The robustness of the shape coexistence feature in $^{184}$Hg is examined. For the neutron-star crust, the deformed neutron-rich Se nuclei embedded in the sea of superfluid low-density neutrons appear in the fcc phase at the nucleon density of 0.045 fm$^{-3}$ and the temperature of $k_B T=200$ keV. The efficiency of the developed solver is demonstrated for nuclei and inhomogeneous nuclear matter at finite temperature. It may provide a standard tool for nuclear physics, especially for the structure of the hot and cold neutron-star matters.

description: Using a nested bivariate panel probit model, we quantify the perceived attribute values (PAV) that beef producers place on different information flows and alliance attributes. Our framework allows us to quantify the monetary value of individual rather than fixed sets of attributes. Results indicate that young producers are most likely to join an alliance, and high participation fees are a significant deterrent to joining an alliance. A PAV of $12.64/head is attached to an alliance that enforces restrictions on vaccinations and antibiotic use. For small producers, not having a required minimum number of animals has a PAV of $9.65/head.
