description: A descriptive analysis and a survey of literature were used in this assessment of the transformation of the structure of production agriculture. The changes in production agriculture have important implications for resource use, population distribution in rural communities, and the survival of small farms. The shifting structural change in production agriculture as a response to economic and technological adjustments is not a temporary phenomenon. The economic and natural base of agriculture will change toward greater capital intensity and concentration of ownership, and will raise public policy questions in relation to the survival of a large farm population.

description: We study perturbative renormalization of the composite operators in the $T\bar T$-deformed two-dimensional free field theories. The pattern of renormalization for the stress-energy tensor is different in the massive and massless cases. While in the latter case the canonical stress tensor is not renormalized up to high order in the perturbative expansion, in the massive theory there are induced counterterms at linear order. For a massless theory our results match the general formula derived recently in [1].

description: Do subsidized new firms survive longer? Evidence from a counterfactual approach. Regional Studies. This study provides a statistically robust evaluation of the impact of capital subsidies on the survival of start-ups in Italy. The analysis considers the subsidies provided by the main Italian regional policy, Law 488/1992, during 1996–2009. By exploiting an unusual characteristic of the L. 488 selection process, a quasi-experimental design with high internal validity – the regression discontinuity design – is applied for the first time to the survival analysis. The results show a lower default risk in subsidized start-ups. These findings contradict the view that start-ups receiving L. 488 assistance simply used the grant funding to delay exit.

Let X be the total space of a nonlinear deformation of a rank 2 holomorphic vector bundle on a smooth rational curve, such that X has trivial canonical bundle and has sections. Then the normal bundle to such sections is computed in terms of the rank of the Hessian of a suitably defined superpotential at its critical points.

description: Renormalization group flows are studied between 5d SCFTs engineered by $(p,q)$ 5-brane webs with large numbers of external 5-branes. A general expression for the free energy on $S^5$ in terms of single-valued trilogarithm functions is derived from their supergravity duals, which are characterized by the 5-brane charges and additional geometric parameters. The additional geometric parameters are fixed by regularity conditions, and we show that the solutions to the regularity conditions extremize a trial free energy. These results are used to survey a large sample of $\mathcal O(10^5)$ renormalization group flows between different 5d SCFTs, including Higgs branch flows and flows that preserve the $SU(2)$ $R$-symmetry. In all cases the free energy changes monotonically towards the infrared, in line with a 5d $F$-theorem.

description: The regional impact of European Union association agreements: an event-analysis approach to the case of Central and Eastern Europe. Regional Studies. Although European Union association agreements are generally seen as welfare improving, relatively little is known about their spatial–distributional consequences. Drawing on the pre-accession experience of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), this paper estimates the regional growth effects of such agreements using an event-analysis approach. It finds a positive growth effect which is, however, not constant across association phases or types of regions (e.g., specialized regions gained most in the early association period and service-oriented economies gained most near accession); and it discusses the implications of this in relation to debates on regional growth in the CEE and for future waves of association.

description: We present spatially resolved spectroscopic images of the gravitationally lensed QSO 2237+0305 taken with the GMOS Integral Field Unit (IFU) on the Gemini North telescope. These observations have the best spatial resolution of any IFU observations of this object to date and include the redshifted CIII] and MgII QSO broad lines. Unlike Mediavilla et al. 1998, we find no evidence for an arc of resolved broad line emission in either the CIII] or MgII lines. We calculate the image flux ratios of both the integrated emission lines and the surrounding continua. The flux ratios of the CIII] and MgII emission lines are consistent with each other but differ substantially from their corresponding continuum flux ratios and the radio/mid-IR flux ratios previously published. We argue that the broad emission line region must be microlensed and the CIII] and MgII emission regions must be approximately the same size and co-located along the line-of-sight. Assuming a simple model for the broad emission line region and the continuum region, we show the size of the CIII] / MgII broad line region is ~0.06 h_{70}^{1/2} pc and the continuum region is <= 0.02 h_{70}^{1/2} pc.

description: Cooperation linkages and technological capabilities development across firms. Regional Studies. This study provides new insights into the role of cooperation in the process of technological capabilities development at the firm level. These are considered in relation to the way innovation is performed, whether by generation or adoption. In addressing this issue, the regional location of firms is taken into account, investigating evidence for spatially mediated knowledge transfer based on cooperation. Results confirm that differences across firms regarding technological capabilities and the role of cooperation cannot be fully appreciated when innovative firms are considered on the same footing, regardless of whether they have been able to develop the new technologies introduced.

When are Extreme Events the better predictable, the larger they are?

Subjects: subject: Data Analysis, Statistics and Probability (physics.data-an)

description: We investigate the predictability of extreme events in time series. The focus of this work is to understand under which circumstances large events are better predictable than smaller events. Therefore we use a simple prediction algorithm based on precursory structures which are identified using the maximum likelihood principle. Using the receiver operator characteristic curve as a measure for the quality of predictions we find that the dependence on the event magnitude is closely linked to the probability distribution function of the underlying stochastic process. We evaluate this dependence on the probability distribution function analytically and numerically. If we assume that the optimal precursory structures are used to make the predictions, we find that large increments are better predictable if the underlying stochastic process has a Gaussian probability distribution function, whereas larger increments are harder to predict if the underlying probability distribution function has a power law tail. In the case of an exponential distribution function we find no significant dependence on the event magnitude. Furthermore we compare these results with predictions of increments in correlated data, namely, velocity increments of a free jet flow. The velocity increments in the free jet flow are in dependence on the time scale either asymptotically Gaussian or asymptotically exponential distributed. The numerical results for predictions within free jet data are in good agreement with the previous analytical considerations for random numbers.

description: The use of national aggregate measures for the purpose of analyzing the impacts of agricultural policies hides the impact of national policies on the distribution of benefits and costs between and within regions, size, and types of businesses.

These tradeoffs were not presented during the 1995-96 Farm Bill debate.

We show that for any noise amplitude there exists a large region of strong coupling where the macroscopic dynamics exhibits low-dimensional chaos embedded in a hierarchically-organized, folded, infinite-dimensional set. Both this structure and the dynamics occuring on it are well-captured by our expansion. In particular, even low-degree approximations allow to calculate efficiently the first macroscopic Lyapunov exponents of the full system.

description: The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), which was signed into law on January 1, 1970, has come to be regarded as the first major piece of federal legislation to call for comprehensive attention to environmental concerns in the United States. During the two decades following enactment of NEPA, Congress adopted and then refined major legislation on nearly every aspect of environmental quality concerns: air pollution, water pollution, drinking water quality, hazardous waste management, wildlife protection, pesticide use, and several related problem areas. Current arguments for environmental regulatory reform are a phase in the continuing evolution of this body of federal environmental policy.
Educational governance activities and the rise of educational contagion in the Islamic Maghreb. The case of Tunisia.
Creators: name: Jules, Tavis D
name: Barton, Teresa
Publisher: name: InterDisciplines. Journal of History and Sociology
Year: 2014

description: Tunisia’s recent movement from dictatorship to democracy presents a unique
opportunity to understand educational developments in post-revolutionary
settings. Within Tunisia, the study of the post-revolutionary scenery is
integral because it is likely that education now has to deal with the
baggage and verbiage of education for democracy as it attempts to partake
in the global souk in a post-Ben Ali era. Using Tunisia as a case study,
this research examines educational developments within transitory
democratic spaces to advance the research hypothesis that revolutions act
as an ‘educational contagion' as new ideas are imported and old ones
realigned to seek national competency and international legitimacy. In
this context, the study explores how the current post-revolutionary
reforms are engendered, as in the case of Tunisia’s recent movement from
revolution to elections, and engages in the themes and purposes of
educational transformations. Theoretically, this study draws upon two
strands of research in comparative and international education that strive
to understand why states import new educational reforms and who is
responsible for these reforms. A qualitative methodological scaffolding of
latent and manifest content analyses is utilized to examine Tunisia’s
education policies in the pre-and post-revolutionary period―revealing the
“actors” and “institutions” that facilitated, giddied, and undergirded new
reform initiatives. It explores the confluence of ‘when’ and ‘why’
educational reform is imported and exported and address who benefits from
such reforms. The findings show that the post-revolutionary education
reforms have taken on a whole new role and have given Tunisia the
potential to become an exemplar for all countries faced with the
challenges stemming from economic globalization.

description: A constrained BRST-BV Lagrangian formulation for totally symmetric massless HS fields in a $d$-dimensional Minkowski space is extended to a non-minimal constrained BRST-BV Lagrangian formulation by using a non-minimal BRST operator $Q_{c|\mathrm{tot}}$ with non-minimal Hamiltonian BFV oscillators $\overline{C}, \overline{\mathcal{P}}, λ, π$, as well as antighost and Nakanishi-Lautrup tensor fields, in order to introduce an admissible self-consistent gauge condition. The gauge-fixing procedure involves an operator gauge-fixing BRST-BFV Fermion $Ψ_H$ as a kernel of the gauge-fixing BRST-BV Fermion functional $Ψ$, manifesting the concept of BFV-BV duality. A Fock-space quantum action with non-minimal BRST-extended off-shell constraints is constructed as a shift of the total generalized field-antifield vector by a variational derivative of the gauge-fixing Fermion $Ψ$ in a total BRST-BV action $S^Ψ_{0|s} = \int d η_0 \langle χ^{Ψ 0}_{\mathrm{tot}|c} \big| Q_{c|\mathrm{tot}}\big| χ^{Ψ 0}_{\mathrm{tot}|c}\rangle$. We use a gauge condition which depends on two gauge parameters, thereby extending the case of $R_ξ$-gauges. For triplet and duplet formulations we explored the representations with only traceless field-antifield and source variables. For the generating functionals of Green's functions, BRST symmetry transformations are suggested and Ward identities are obtained.

description: Electroweak radiative corrections can be evaluated in the Sudakov approximation, a systematic high energy expansion known to be relevant for the analysis of future collider experiments in the TeV energy range. In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model and at next-to-leading order, Sudakov electroweak corrections satisfy remarkable relations at the one loop level. Explicit computations in component fields are available for various different $2\to 2$ processes relevant for Linear Collider or LHC physics. The Sudakov corrections turn out to be equal or closely related in several classes of processes differing by the replacement of certain final or initial states with their superpartners. This fact suggests that supersymmetry is partially restored at high-energy. We analyze the supersymmetric structure of such relations by computing the Sudakov corrections in the framework of superfield perturbation theory. As a simple application, we derive in full details an extended complete set of supersymmetric relations among different processes related by supersymmetry to the fundamental fermion pair production process $e^+e^-\to f\bar f$.

description: In 1995, for the first time since the 1930s, the United States failed to pass new farm program legislation. The inability to pass farm legislation occurred despite bipartisan agreement that farm programs should continue the trend over the past decade of less government intervention. This paper discusses the sequence of events, the role of agricultural economists, the major issues, and the lessons learned from the 1995 Farm Bill debate. The trend toward declining government intervention in agriculture will require that the profession look increasingly to the private sector for solutions to the problems facing agriculture in the twenty-first century.

description: In contrast with imaging using position-resolving cameras, single-pixel imaging uses a bucket detector along with spatially structured illumination for image recovery. This emerging imaging technique is a promising candidate for a broad range of applications due to high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and sensitivity, and applicability in a wide range of frequency bands. Here, inspired by single-pixel imaging in the spatial domain, we demonstrate a temporal single-pixel imaging (TSPI) system that covers frequency bands including both terahertz (THz) and near-infrared (NIR) region. By implementing a programmable temporal fan-out (TFO) gate based on a digital micromirror device (DMD), we can deterministically prepare temporally structured pulses with a temporal sampling size down to 16.00$\pm$0.01 fs. By inheriting the advantages in detection efficiency and sensitivity from spatial single-pixel imaging, TSPI enables the compressive recovery of a 5 fJ THz pulse and two NIR pulses with over 97$\%$ fidelity. We demonstrate that the TSPI is robust against temporal distortions in the probe pulse train as well. As a direct application, we apply TSPI to machine-learning-aided THz spectroscopy and demonstrate a high sample identification accuracy (97.5$\%$) even under low SNRs (SNR $\sim$ 10).

description: Extending the FLQ formula: a location quotient-based interregional input–output framework. Regional Studies. The regionalization of national input–output tables is a major issue in regional science as corresponding regional data are often unavailable. In this paper, a framework is developed to estimate intra- and interregional input–output tables. The intraregional estimates are based on the well-known FLQ method. The interregional estimates are constructed using gravity modelling to account for factors like geographic distance between regions. The derived (initial) estimates are embedded in an interregional accounting framework that ensures consistency of regional values with the national aggregates. The framework is applied to the German economy of 2010. The relationship between the FLQ formula and the estimated amount of interregional trade in intermediates, the amount of interregional cross-hauling, and the regional distribution of output multipliers is highlighted.

description: The impact of hypothetical changes in yields, costs, and demand that might result from the organization of Oklahoma vegetable growers into cooperatives or other multifarmer marketing associations is estimated using a sector programming model. A comparative static analysis is used to evaluate the impact of these changes on planted acreage, growers' revenues, and consumers' and producers' surplus. The results of this analysis indicate that changes in demand are most effective in increasing revenues for Oklahoma growers.
Why doesn’t the telephone ring? Reform of educational standards in Russia.
Creators: name: Minina, Elena
Publisher: name: InterDisciplines. Journal of History and Sociology
Year: 2014

description: The article explores the public perception of neoliberal idea of of 'educational standardisation' against the benchmark of local pedagogical practices and preferences in post-Soviet education modernisation reform in Russia. The analysis shows how the standardisation reform in Russia was developed in convergence with policy recommendations by foreign agents, rather than through consultations with domestic pedagogical community. Using a variety of discursive techniques, the article contrasts the interpretative schemes underlying neoliberal and local interpretations of educational standards and exposes several points of tension surrounding the concept at the linguistic, metaphorical and conceptual levels. While the official discourse positions 'educational standard' as a principle of educational provision, the public discourse interprets it as merely a reduced list of school subjects subsidised by the state. In further explicating specific conceptual frameworks within which particular meanings of ‘standard’ are instantiated, I identify two conflicting sets of frames within the standardisation debate: state control and pedagogy. One is associated with authoritarian pedagogy and state monopoly over education, while the other is rooted in the local pedagogical tradition of vospitanie through creative learning. I uncover a number of tensions in the interpretation of the idea of standard, including the oppositions ‘curriculum versus programma,’ ‘standard versus non-standard,’ and ‘whole versus fragmented.’ Within these oppositions, one member stands for the ‘humane,’ ‘fundamental,’ and ‘liberating,’ while another represents ‘restricting,’ ‘stereotypical,’ ‘mechanistic’ and ‘lacking individuality.’ Whilst sharing the initial points of reference, the value points appear reverse in the public and the official discourses: the official discourse construes the progressive idea of educational standard in opposition to the ‘grey uniformity’ of Soviet-era schooling, while the public discourse castigates the standardisation reform as a total displacement of personality. Straddling contradicting frames of reference, the official rhetoric exhibits a considerable degree of inconsistency, creating confusion in the societal debate and obscuring the direction of reform.

description: A science-based sector in the making: the formation of the biotechnology sector in two regions. Regional Studies. This paper analyses two case studies, Skåne-Blekinge in Sweden and the Southern–Eastern region in Ireland, to examine different current development paths for the biotechnology sector. The aim is to codify the process, identifying actions and priorities towards these paths. National innovation systems theory provides the theoretical framework that guided a series of interviews in the two regions. The findings demonstrate that the sustainable development of a science-based sector does not depend on the original priorities or directions, but rather on the level of consistency of those policies and their continuous evolution towards a complete systemic value generation system.

In particular, it is shown that the Poisson summation formula may be viewed abstractly as a relation between two sets of bases (Zak bases) arising as simultaneous eigenvectors of two commuting unitary operators in which geometric phase plays a key role. The Zak bases are shown to be interpretable as generalised coherent state systems of the Heisenberg--Weyl group and this, in turn, prompts analysis of the sampling theorem (an important and useful consequence of the Poisson Summation Formula) and its extension from a coherent state point of view leading to interesting results on properties of von Neumann and finer lattices based on standard and generalised coherent state systems.

description: This work is to investigate the (top) Lyapunov exponent for a class of Hamiltonian systems under small non-Gaussian Lévy noise. In a suitable moving frame, the linearisation of such a system can be regarded as a small perturbation of a nilpotent linear system. The Lyapunov exponent is then estimated by taking a Pinsky-Wihstutz transformation and applying the Khas'minskii formula, under appropriate assumptions on smoothness, ergodicity and integrability. Finally, two examples are present to illustrate our results. The results characterize the growth or decay rates of a class of dynamical systems under the interaction between Hamiltonian structures and non-Gaussian uncertainties.

description: We discuss models that can account for today's dark energy. The underlying cosmological constant may be Planck scale but starts as a redundant coupling which can be eliminated by a field redefinition. The observed vacuum energy arises when the redundancy is explicitly broken, say by a non-minimal coupling to curvature. We give a recipe for constructing models, including R + 1/R type models, that realize this mechanism and satisfy all solar system constraints on gravity. A similar model, based on Gauss-Bonnet gravity, provides a technically natural explanation for dark energy and exhibits an interesting see-saw behavior: a large underlying cosmological constant gives rise to both low and high curvature solutions. Such models could be statistically favored in the string landscape.

Parental status : a new construct describing adolescent perceptions of stepfathers
Creators: name: Gamache, Susan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This research investigated the effects of mothers' and stepfathers' parental behaviors on late adolescent adjustment and the moderating effects of stepfathers' parental status on the relationship between stepfathers' parental behaviors and late adolescent adjustment. In Study 1 a measure for parental status (PSI: The Parental Status Inventory) was developed. Parental status, as a social cognition, addresses the degree to which the stepparent is perceived as a parent by the stepchild, the stepparent, and/or the residential parent. Findings resulted in a 14-item scale with good reliability (Cronbach's alpha .97). The PSI was moderately associated with attachment and closeness to the stepparent but was not associated with peer attachments. The PSI had a low to moderate association with the age of the respondent at the time the stepfamily originated. In Study 2, the effects of late adolescent perceptions of parental behaviors by mothers and stepfathers on late adolescent adjustment and the moderating effects of stepfathers' parental status on the relationship between his parenting behaviors and late adolescent adjustment were explored. Results of a series of hierarchical multiple regression analyses with interaction terms indicated that, of mothers' and stepfathers' parenting behaviors, only mothers' connection explained a significant amount of variance (10%) in female adaptive behaviors. The models explaining problem behavior in late adolescents did not show significant results for either females or males. Additional findings were that parental status did not moderate the effects of stepfathers' connection, regulation or psychological control on late adolescent adaptive or problem behaviors for either females or males. In summary, parental status did not moderate the variables in question. However, the evidence from this research suggests that the construct of parental status is valid and that the PSI is a valid and reliable measure. Together the construct of parental status and the PSI have the potential to contribute to the development of knowledge in stepfamilies in theoretical, research and clinical settings.
Exploratory study of the professional identity of higher education teachers in Ukraine

description: Ukraine entered the Bologna Process in 2005 (European Commission TEMPUS Study, 2012). The Bologna process required a radical change in the educational process in Ukraine, in particular changes in the design of the curriculum, the academic calendar and student grading procedures as well as bigger emphasis on the research work by the faculty (Shaw, Chapman, & Rumyantseva, 2011). Also, in the context of highly centralised system of education and financial problems caused by global economic crisis, there was a need to provide systematic instructional redesign or real support for staff to implement the changes prescribed by the Bologna process. However, this was not done and resulted in the Bologna process implementation that seems patchy to external observers (Shaw, Chapman, & Rumyantseva, 2011). Within this, an instrumental part of the new educational process is how teachers see themselves and construct or reconstruct their professional identity to suit the new educational reform. So, it is relevant to give focus to professional identity of Higher Education teachers in a post-Soviet context as the country seeks compliance with a European Higher Education Area (EHEA). This research aimed to explore and deeply analyse the professional identity of university teachers in Ukraine. The study showed that there was made a shift from teacher-centred approach; however, it is recommended that for teachers to achieve a more substantial move away from current teacher-centred approaches to teaching, teachers will require greater financial and structural support on the part of policy makers as well as further university staff training.

description: It is of great interest to explore matter in nontrivial quantum arrangements, including Schrodinger cat-like states. Such states are sensitive to decoherence from their environment. Recently, in Ref. [1] we computed the rate of decoherence of a piece of superposed matter that primarily only interacts gravitationally, a dark-matter-Schrodinger-cat-state (DMSCS), within the nonrelativistic approximation. In this work we improve this to a general relativistic analysis. We firstly derive a single particle relativistic Schrodinger equation for a probe particle that passes through the DMSCS; the interaction is provided by the weak field metric of general relativity from the source. For a static DMSCS we find a neat generalization of our previous results. We then turn to the interesting new case of a time dependent DMSCS, which can be provided by a coherently oscillating axion field leading to superposed time dependent oscillations in the metric; a truly quantum-general relativistic phenomenon. We use scattering theory to derive the decoherence rate in all these cases. When the DMSCS is in a superposition of distinct density profiles, we find that the decoherence rate can be appreciable. We then consider the novel special case in which the density is not in a superposition, but the phase of its field oscillation is; this is a property that cannot be decohered within the nonrelativistic framework. We find that if the probe particle and/or the DMSCS's velocity dispersion is slow, then the rate of decoherence of the phase is exponentially suppressed. However, if both the probe and the DMSCS's velocity dispersion are relativistic, then the phase can decohere more rapidly. As applications, we find that diffuse galactic axions with superposed phases are robust against decoherence, while dense boson stars and regions near black hole horizons are not, and we discuss implications for experiment.

description: We introduce a generalization of the Dobinski relation through which we define a family of Bell-type numbers and polynomials. For all these sequences we find the weight function of the moment problem and give their generating functions. We provide a physical motivation of this extension in the context of the boson normal ordering problem and its relation to an extension of the Kerr Hamiltonian.

description: FASER$ν$ is a newly proposed detector whose main mission is to detect the neutrino flux from the collision of the proton beams at the ATLAS Interaction Point (IP) during the run III of the LHC in 2022-2024. We show that this detector can also test certain beyond standard model scenarios, especially the ones in which the neutrino interaction with matter fields can produce new unstable particles decaying back into charged leptons. Models of this kind are motivated by the MiniBooNE anomaly. We show that, if the new physics involves multi-muon production by neutrinos scattering off matter fields, including the neutrino flux interactions in the rock before the detector in the analysis ({\it i.e.,} accounting for the through-going muon pairs) can significantly increase the effective detector mass and its sensitivity to new physics. We propose a concrete model that can give rise to such a multi-muon signal.

description: Anti-cancer drug sensitivity prediction using deep learning models for individual cell line is a significant challenge in personalized medicine. REFINED (REpresentation of Features as Images with NEighborhood Dependencies) CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) based models have shown promising results in drug sensitivity prediction. The primary idea behind REFINED CNN is representing high dimensional vectors as compact images with spatial correlations that can benefit from convolutional neural network architectures. However, the mapping from a vector to a compact 2D image is not unique due to variations in considered distance measures and neighborhoods. In this article, we consider predictions based on ensembles built from such mappings that can improve upon the best single REFINED CNN model prediction. Results illustrated using NCI60 and NCIALMANAC databases shows that the ensemble approaches can provide significant performance improvement as compared to individual models. We further illustrate that a single mapping created from the amalgamation of the different mappings can provide performance similar to stacking ensemble but with significantly lower computational complexity.
