description: We consider the irregular (in the Birkhoff and even the Stone sense) transmission eigenvalue problem of the form $-y''+q(x)y=ρ^2 y,$ $y(0)=y(1)\cosρa-y'(1)ρ^{-1}\sinρa=0.$ The main focus is on the ''most'' irregular case $a=1,$ which is important for applications. The uniqueness questions of recovering the potential $q(x)$ from transmission eigenvalues were studied comprehensively. Here we investigate the solvability and stability of this inverse problem. For this purpose, we suggest the so-called regularization approach, under which there should first be chosen some regular subclass of eigenvalue problems under consideration, which actually determines the course of the study and even the precise statement of the inverse problem. For definiteness, by assuming $q(x)$ to be a complex-valued function in $W_2^1[0,1]$ possessing the zero mean value and $q(1)\ne0,$ we study properties of transmission eigenvalues and prove local solvability and stability of recovering $q(x)$ from the spectrum along with the value $q(1).$ In Appendices, we provide some illustrative examples of regular and irregular transmission eigenvalue problems, and also obtain necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of the characteristic function for solvability of the inverse problem of recovering an arbitrary real-valued square-integrable potential $q(x)$ from the spectrum, for any fixed $a\in{\mathbb R}.$

description: According to the relevant data about the land resources and population in Liaocheng City from 1999 to 2008, by using the research method of bearing capacity of natural resources, the thesis analyzes the relationship between natural resources and dynamic change of population in Liaocheng City. The results show that the farmland tends to diminish on the whole, and forests, garden land, urban-rural settlements and land for enterprises and mining increase slowly. Based on the analysis of the dynamic relationship between land resources and population, we conclude that the land resources still can bear the current population in Liaocheng City, but the population development inflict critical pressure on the forest resources and water resources.

description: In order to understand the historical origins of encircling the cities from the rural areas implemented by the Communist Party of China and the current dual structures of urban and rural development, urban-rural differences are analyzed from the four aspects of production mode, management mode, culture and social division of labor. Industrial development in modern times has promoted the modernization of urban production in China. But the rural areas still maintain their traditional self-sufficient natural economy. After the Opium War, the process of modernization of city politics is promoted by more economic elements of capitalism and the formation of Chinese bourgeoisie. During the management of urban modernization, rural areas still adopt the traditional self-management mode. In the aspect of culture, city is the center of development, having large population, developed traffic, and prosperous culture. But the village is lack of information and its culture is relatively backward. In modern times, affected by the foreign capitalist, urban area has become the center of modern productivity. After separating from agriculture, handicraft industry has transferred into urban areas and the social division of labor in both urban and rural areas has shown great changes. Thus, a new pattern of “Urban Industry, Rural Agriculture” has formed.

Hot girls kicking : violent women and genre hybridity in postmodern action cinema
Creators: name: Steenberg, Lindsay Joan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The spectacle of sexuality and violence embodied on screen by the character of the deadly woman has caused simultaneous and alternating fascination and alarm in spectators. While violent women have been represented in a large number of films since the 1 970s, in recent years there has been a significant shift in their characterizations. Rather than the vixens of sexploitation cinema or the muscular heroines of 1990s blockbusters, the contemporary action heroine is informed by the global popular imaginary and by postmodern genre hybridization. This thesis examines the transnational and hybrid nature of these texts by grouping together similar films based on the character of the professional female fighter - which I have titled, Hot Girl Kicking, in order to sum up her distinct combination of violence and the erotic. Over the course of the thesis, patterns of structure, functionality and spectacle emerge in Hot Girl Kicking films due to their postmodern emphasis on surface, fracture, and cross cultural genre hybridization, and their ultimate function: rupturing the systems which hold them. This thesis first examines the onscreen construction of the aggressive female body in contemporary U.S. action films, followed by the addition of stylized fighting inspired by Asian genres in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (Lee 2000), and finally the exaggerated self reflexive uses of genre and violence in Kill Bill Volumes 1 and 2 (Tarantino 2003/4). Widening the site of rupture from a preoccupation with the body of the heroine to the global stage highlights the emancipatory potential of cross cultural and genre hybridization. The proposed hybrid sub-genre of the Hot Girl Kicking represents news ways of blurring boundaries and challenging the ordering systems of classical Hollywood film form, U.S. cultural imperialism, and patriarchy.

description: Проведен анализ морфологического состояния печени у 145 больных с холестазами неопухолевой этиологии, находившихся на лечении в НОКБ и ЦГКБ Великого Новгорода. Исследованы результаты биопсии печени во время операции, а также пункционной биопсии печени через 5 дней и через 3 недели после декомпрессионных операций. Выявлены выраженные структурные и функциональные изменения ткани печени, которые прогрессировали с увеличением длительности окклюзии. В случаях с длительной хронической желтухой после декомпрессии желчных протоков в портальных трактах остаются склеротические изменения, гистиолимфоцитарная инфильтрация и пролиферирующий билиарный эпителий. Исследование пункционных и интраоперационных биопсий при механической желтухе позволяет определить форму и тяжесть холестаза, что совместно с другими данными влияет на прогноз заболевания и на тактику оперативного лечения.

description: The gravitationally-driven evolution of cold dark matter dominates the formation of structure in the Universe over a wide range of length scales. While the longest scales can be treated by perturbation theory, a fully quantitative understanding of nonlinear effects requires the application of large-scale particle simulation methods. Additionally, precision predictions for next-generation observations, such as weak gravitational lensing, can only be obtained from numerical simulations. In this paper, we compare results from several N-body codes using test problems and a diverse set of diagnostics, focusing on a medium resolution regime appropriate for studying many observationally relevant aspects of structure formation. Our conclusions are that -- despite the use of different algorithms and error-control methodologies -- overall, the codes yield consistent results. The agreement over a wide range of scales for the cosmological tests is test-dependent. In the best cases, it is at the 5% level or better, however, for other cases it can be significantly larger than 10%. These include the halo mass function at low masses and the mass power spectrum at small scales. While there exist explanations for most of the discrepancies, our results point to the need for significant improvement in N-body errors and their understanding to match the precision of near-future observations. The simulation results, including halo catalogs, and initial conditions used, are publicly available.

description: By using the dynamic shift-share analysis, the industrial structure and competitive strength of 31 provincial districts except Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau are studied by taking the GDP of the three industries as the research entrance and the whole nation as the reference district. The industrial structure and competitive strength of each provincial district is measured. Through the analysis of pertinence, the correlation degree of industrial structure and industrial competitive strength to economic growth is analyzed. The results show that the industrial competitive strength is closely related to the economic growth of the 31 provincial districts, but the contribution made by the industrial structure to economic growth is insufficient and the effect of industrial structure does not match with that of industrial competitive strength. According to industrial competitiveness and industrial structure effect, 31 provincial districts of the whole nation are divided into 4 types and the relevant countermeasures of the four types are put forward.

description: Приведены литературные данные патогенетической взаимосвязи компонентов метаболического синдрома, освещены педиатрические аспекты. Проанализированы данные 20 детей с ожирением и 20 здоровых детей. Установлено, что у всех обследованных детей с ожирением имеют место основные и / или дополнительные диагностические критерии метаболического синдрома, что является фактором риска раннего формирования заболеваний сердечно-сосудистой системы. Показано, что у подростков с ожирением статистически значимо чаще выявлены основные критерии метаболического синдрома: артериальная гипертензия, висцеральное ожирение, дислипидемия, инсулинорезистентность. При этом ведущим звеном в патогенетическом взаимодействии данных компонентов можно предположить именно избыточное жироотложение по абдоминальному типу.

description: The identification of accident hot spots is a central task of road safety management. Bayesian count data models have emerged as the workhorse method for producing probabilistic rankings of hazardous sites in road networks. Typically, these methods assume simple linear link function specifications, which, however, limit the predictive power of a model. Furthermore, extensive specification searches are precluded by complex model structures arising from the need to account for unobserved heterogeneity and spatial correlations. Modern machine learning (ML) methods offer ways to automate the specification of the link function. However, these methods do not capture estimation uncertainty, and it is also difficult to incorporate spatial correlations. In light of these gaps in the literature, this paper proposes a new spatial negative binomial model, which uses Bayesian additive regression trees to endogenously select the specification of the link function. Posterior inference in the proposed model is made feasible with the help of the Polya-Gamma data augmentation technique. We test the performance of this new model on a crash count data set from a metropolitan highway network. The empirical results show that the proposed model performs at least as well as a baseline spatial count data model with random parameters in terms of goodness of fit and site ranking ability.

description: Fishbone chart is used to analyze the status of the living ability of land-losing farmers, as well as its causation from the aspects of system layer, social support network, land-losing farmer themselves, and economic layer. Result shows that the system layer includes the unreasonable land compensation, the lack of social security for land-losing farmers, and the employment exclusion of land-losing farmers. Small scale and low heterogeneity are the causations for social support network. Low willingness to become citizens, low cultural quality and difficulty in role change are the causations of land-losing farmers themselves. The low expected return and high living cost are the causations for economic layer. Based on the above analysis, countermeasures to improve the urban-living ability of land-losing farmers are put forward, such as improving the land expropriation system, establishing a multi-level social security system, enhancing the training and employment mechanism of land-losing farmers, and improving the quality of land-losing farmers.

description: We present the results of a 50 ks long X-ray observation of the relativistic double pulsar system PSR J0737-3039 obtained with the XMM-Newton satellite in March 2004. The source has a soft spectrum (power law photon index = 3.5(+0.5,-0.3)) and a 0.2-10 keV luminosity of ~3x10^30 erg/s (assuming a distance of 500 pc), consistent with the values derived from a previous Chandra observation. No flux variations have been detected, implying the absence of large orbital modulations. The high time resolution of the EPIC instrument has allowed us to perform the first search for X-ray pulsations from this system. The result was negative, with an upper limit of 60% on the pulsed fraction of the 22 ms pulsar.

description: Land is the fundamental income sources for farmers. However, farmers stay in disadvantaged state in the political, economic and social aspects. Their land is exploited and occupied, which facilitates the rapid development of economy, as well as brings the gap between the poor and the rich and the inharmonious disputes. The necessity for protecting the land right of farmers under the new situation is expounded, covering the necessity of carrying out the relevant agricultural policies; the necessity of improving rural economic status and narrowing the gap between urban and rural areas; the necessity of reducing land disputes and constructing harmonious society. The violation of farmers’ land rights is analyzed from two aspects. The first one is the violation of farmers’ land right in land tenure section , which includes the lack of ecological compensation system the lack of contract operation right; the second one is the violation of farmers’ land right in land transfer section, including the absence of land requisition system, substandard land contract and land transfer and the limitation of house stead circulation; the third one is the vacant of land development right affects farmers’ share of enjoying the added value of land. The countermeasures for protecting farmers’ land rights are put forward. The first one is clarify land property; the second one is normalize and perfect land requisition system; the third one is appropriately loosen rural land transfer policies; the fourth one is establish ecological compensation and land development right compensation system.

Foi observado que no período 1995 a 2006 ocorreu uma significativa elevação da participação relativa dos trabalhadores na produção para o próprio consumo na composição dos ocupados em atividades agropecuárias. O trabalho concentrou-se na caracterização das formas não remuneradas de trabalho agrícola. Identificou-se que praticamente 30% do esforço ocupacional (medido em termos de quantidade de horas acumuladas de trabalho) em atividades da agropecuária estão concentrados em formas ocupacionais não remuneradas. Alem disto vem se observando uma redução do numero médio de horas trabalhadas com exceção de algumas posições na ocupação (produção para o próprio consumo) e algumas atividades. Finalmente, destacam-se as relações (associações de correspondências) existentes entre formas ocupacionais e atividades da agropecuária. --------------------------------------------This study has its main goal to analyze the occupational structure related to farming activities in Brazil, focusing in unpaid activities. It was observed that in the period from 1995 to 2006 there was a significant increase in participation of workers on the production for self consumption in the composition of occupied workers in farming activities. The work focused on the characterization of the unpaid agricultural work types. It was identified that nearly 30% of the occupational effort (measured in terms of accumulated amount of worked hours) in farming activities are concentrated in unpaid occupational forms. Furthermore it has been observed a reduction in the average number of hours worked with the exception of some positions in the occupation (production for own consumption) and some activities. Finally, it is emphasized the relations (correspondence associations) existing between occupational forms and activities on farming.

Esse tema tem despertado atenção da comunidade de investigadores, que ao longo do tempo enriqueceram o acervo de documentos de analise da pobreza. O presente artigo teve a pretensão de analisar a incidência da pobreza em Cabo Verde especificamente na identificação de cluster de pobreza e indicação da dependência espacial da incidência da pobreza na Ilha de Santiago. Os resultados permitiram evidenciar a existência de padrões espaciais distintos em relação à incidência da pobreza. Os vizinhos tendem a apresentar valores semelhantes entre, si e diferentes das demais localidades relativamente mais afastadas. Uma das principais conclusões do trabalho é da existência da heterogeneidade espacial na incidência da pobreza na Ilha de Santiago, e também, ficou evidente a existência de auto correlação espacial desse indicador portanto o aspecto “onde” é importante e deve ser considerado nas análises da pobreza em Cabo Verde. ----------------------------------------------------------To combat the poverty was always a present objective in a large part of public politicies implemented in Cape Verde. The present article had the pretension of analyzing the incidence of the poverty in Cape Verde specifically in the identification of poverty cluster and indication of the spatial dependence of the incidence of the poverty in Santiago's Island. The results allowed to evidence the existence of different space patterns in relation to the incidence of the poverty. The neighbors tend to present similar values among, itself and different from the other places relatively more moved away. One of the main conclusions of the work is of the existence of the spatial heterogeneity in the incidence of the poverty in Santiago's Island, and also, it was evident the existence of solemnity spatial correlation of that indicator therefore the aspect "where" is important and it should be considered in the analyses of the poverty in Cape Verde.

As a result, we find a new type of two-dimensional spatio-temporal solitons stabilized by dispersion management. We have studied the existence and properties of these solitary waves both analytically and numerically. We show that the adequate choice of the modulation parameters optimizes the stabilization of the pulse.

description: Nos anos iniciais da implantação do PRONAF, observou-se uma forte concentração de recursos nas regiões Sudeste/Sul e para produtores mais integrados. Recentemente, ocorreram algumas mudanças com o propósito de dirigir os recursos a agricultores mais carentes e de estimular o “desenvolvimento local”, incorporando o debate do paradigma de Desenvolvimento Territorial. O objetivo do artigo é o de mostrar que, mesmo tendo em vista a alteração recente da legislação, o PRONAF continua preso à lógica concentradora de recursos, definida pelas exigências do Sistema Bancário. Fizemos um estudo dos municípios captadores de recursos na região Sul e Nordeste e calculamos o Índice de Desenvolvimento Rural(IDR) de cada um deles. Este índice incorpora aspectos extra, além da renda média e o intuito é o de verificar que tipo de município está recebendo a maioria dos recursos do PRONAF. Efetuamos análise de correlação entre o IDR e diversos indicadores relativos ao crédito do PRONAF. ----------------------------------------------In the early years of PRONAF implementation a strong concentration of resources was observed in the South-east and South regions and also within the more integrated producers. Recently there have been some changes with the purpose of addressing the resources to farmers with fewer resources and of stimulating the “local development”. The article’s aim is to show that even considering the recent changes in the law, the PRONAF continues stuck to resources’ concentrating logic, defined by bank systems requirements. On this behalf we will present a study done on PRONAF’s resources distribution in the North-east and South regions where the greater number of family farmers concentrates. We have calculated the “Rural Development Index” (IDR) for each municipality on both regions in order to have the local profile. We develop an analysis of correlation between the IDR and other variables related to the PRONAF’S resources.

description: We introduce the distribution of a secret multipartite entangled state in a real-world scenario as a quantum primitive. We show that in the presence of noisy quantum channels (and noisy control operations) any state chosen from the set of two-colorable graph states (CSS codewords) can be created with high fidelity while it remains unknown to all parties. This is accomplished by either blind multipartite entanglement purification, which we introduce in this paper, or by multipartite entanglement purification of enlarged states, which offers advantages over an alternative scheme based on standard channel purification and teleportation. The parties are thus provided with a secret resource of their choice for distributed secure applications.

description: Flowering regulation is important for maize to adapt to a variety of environments as well as associated with high yield. In this study, the genetic mechanism of three flowering traits of 310 maize inbred lines with rich genetic background was investigated in three years at three different environments such as days to tasseling (DTT), days to silking (DTS) and days to pollen shedding (DTP). Based on mean performance, the longest flowering time was observed in Zhanyi (2018), whereas the shortest in Shizong (2019). The coefficient of variance depicted the range from 3.62% to 9.06% for three flowering traits under all environments. Therefore, we have integrated these flowering traits corresponding to SNP molecular markers for genome-wide association study (GWAS). Results showed that 22 SNPs markers were significantly associated with DTT according to physical position and average linkage disequilibrium (LD) decay distance, and a total of 234 candidate genes were identified near these significantly associated SNP markers. Moreover, KEGG and GO analysis showed that these genes were enriched in the regulation of the physiological pathways for flowering. In more details, 16 genes involved in development of floral organs are more worthy of our attention in future studies.

description: We show that an LC parametric transducer can be effectively used to monitor an adiabatic evolution of the superconducting flux qubit. We propose a new scheme to measure the qubit's state, which is a quantum nondemolition measurement. The scheme can be easily extended to a three-qubit system, and allows the reading out of the qubits' states while the system remains in the ground state. An implementation of the adiabatic quantum algorithm MAXCUT for three superconducting flux qubits is discussed.

description: The formation of a large-scale current sheet is a generic feature of pulsar magnetospheres. If the magnetic axis is misaligned with the star rotation axis, the current sheet is an oscillatory structure filling an equatorial wedge determined by the inclination angle, known as the striped wind. Relativistic reconnection could lead to significant dissipation of magnetic energy and particle acceleration although the efficiency of this process is debated in this context. In this study, we aim at reconciling global models of pulsar wind dynamics and reconnection in the stripes within the same numerical framework, in order to shed new light on dissipation and particle acceleration in pulsar winds. To this end, we perform large three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations of a split-monopole magnetosphere, from the stellar surface up to fifty light-cylinder radii away from the pulsar. Plasmoid-dominated reconnection efficiently fragments the current sheet into a dynamical network of interacting flux ropes separated by secondary current sheets which consume the field efficiently at all radii, even past the fast magnetosonic point. Our results suggest there is a universal dissipation radius solely determined by the reconnection rate in the sheet, lying well upstream the termination shock radius in isolated pair producing pulsars. The wind bulk Lorentz factor is much less relativistic than previously thought. In the comoving frame, the wind is composed of hot pairs trapped within flux ropes with a hard broad power-law spectrum, whose maximum energy is limited by the magnetization of the wind at launch. We conclude that the striped wind is most likely fully dissipated when it enters the pulsar wind nebula. The predicted wind particle spectrum after dissipation is reminiscent of the Crab Nebula radio-emitting electrons.

description: O objetivo geral deste trabalho foi determinar os riscos inerentes à utilização de recursos do PRONAF, com a proposta da associação de um Programa de Garantia de Renda, na oferta, nos preços e na renda auferida pelos produtores de arroz e feijão entre os anos 1998 a 2005. A metodologia utilizada foi a de Newbery & Stiglitz, que considera o caráter de aversão ao risco e apresenta as vantagens de ser adaptada à análise que envolve contratações de operações financeiras de crédito e fornece o prêmio de risco. Os resultados indicam que os agricultores familiares obteriam ganhos de renda, em média, 40,58% e 146,29%, aumento médio nos preços recebidos de 24,66% e 71,78%e aumento médio na produção de 9,79% e 27,28%, enquanto os consumidores seriam beneficiados pela redução média nos preços de 36,26% e 80,22%, com relação aos produtos arroz e feijão, respectivamente. Quanto aos custos da PGR,verificou-se que, no último período analisado (2005), o custo total era de R$ 4.608 milhões, enquanto o custo social era de R$ 517,349 milhões, representando, em termos percentuais, 11,2% do custo total da política de garantia de renda.-------------------------------------------In this study we evaluate potential impacts of an income guaranty program that could be established as alternative use for funds from Brazil’s National Family Agriculture Strengthening Program (PRONAF). Using Newbery and Stiglitz methodology, we analyze the effect of PGR upon the incomes of rice and bean producers between of 1998 to 2005 and on the supplies and prices of these commodities. This methodology is well adapted to our study, as we include an analysis of risk-aversion and credit financed capital investment. Our results show that family farmers producing rice and beans would obtain income gains on average of 40% and 146%, for their respective crops. The income gains arise from an increase in the average prices received of 24% and 71%, and an increase in the average production of 9% and 27%. The results also show that consumers would be benefited by a resultant reduction in these commodities average prices: 36% less for rice and 80% less for beans. It is found that over the last analyzed year, 2005, the total cost of PGR would have been R$ 4,608 million while the social cost would have been R$ 517.349 million, or 11.2% of the total Income Guaranty Program’s total cost.

description: In this paper, we investigate the general properties of lattice spin models that have string and/or membrane condensed ground states. We discuss the properties needed to define a string or membrane operator. We study three 3D spin models which lead to Z_2 gauge theory at low energies. All the three models are exactly soluble and produce topologically ordered ground states. The first model contains both closed-string and closed-membrane condensations. The second model contains closed-string condensation only. The ends of open-strings behave like fermionic particles. The third model also has condensations of closed membranes and closed strings. The ends of open strings are bosonic while the edges of open membranes are fermionic. The third model contains a new type of topological order.

description: Изучено морфофункциональное состояние почек и печени у 119 пациентов с хроническими холестатическими гепатитами. Пациентам проводилась предоперационная комплексная консервативная терапия. При наличии холецистолитиаза у 62 больных выполнена видеолапароскопическая холецистэктомия, дополнительно по показаниям производили селективную ваготомию печени, электрокоагуляцию печени с лапароскопической экстраперитонеальной гепатофренопексией, при сохранении билирубинемии на уровне 60–70 мкмоль/л накладывали лимфовенозный анастомоз 48 пациентам. Функциональное состояние печени оценивалось по результатам биохимических исследований крови. Для исследования функций почек определяли общий анализ мочи, проводили пробу Реберга—Тареева. Выявлено, что между функциональными показателями почек, печени и уровнем содержания билирубина имеется четко выраженная зависимость. Хирургическое лечение с предоперационной подготовкой способствует улучшению нарушенных функций печени и почек, но при хронических гепатитах умеренной и высокой активности не устраняет полностью электролитный дисбаланс.

description: Machine behavior that is based on learning algorithms can be significantly influenced by the exposure to data of different qualities. Up to now, those qualities are solely measured in technical terms, but not in ethical ones, despite the significant role of training and annotation data in supervised machine learning. This is the first study to fill this gap by describing new dimensions of data quality for supervised machine learning applications. Based on the rationale that different social and psychological backgrounds of individuals correlate in practice with different modes of human-computer-interaction, the paper describes from an ethical perspective how varying qualities of behavioral data that individuals leave behind while using digital technologies have socially relevant ramification for the development of machine learning applications. The specific objective of this study is to describe how training data can be selected according to ethical assessments of the behavior it originates from, establishing an innovative filter regime to transition from the big data rationale n = all to a more selective way of processing data for training sets in machine learning. The overarching aim of this research is to promote methods for achieving beneficial machine learning applications that could be widely useful for industry as well as academia.
