description: African economies are increasingly confronted with changing food and commodity markets, due to globalisation, economic liberalisation and urbanisation. Subsequently, consumer preferences change. This poses new opportunities but also challenges to small-scale producers, traders and processors along agricultural value chains. The value chain is increasingly seen as an important development framework, with contract farming being viewed as an instrument for improving value chain performance by reducing transaction costs and risks and by building trust in vertical cooperation. This paper uses the case study of the potato value chain in Kenya to examine these assumptions. It is shown that contract farming can be used to reduce transaction costs and risks, and to improve the organisation and governance of value chains by creating stable business relationships. Nevertheless, it is constrained by a number of market and institutional failures.

Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The solution of optimization problems constrained by partial differential equations (PDEs) plays an important role in many areas of science and industry. In this work we present cashocs, a new software package written in Python, which automatically solves such problems in the context of optimal control and shape optimization. The software cashocs implements a discretization of the continuous adjoint approach, which derives the necessary adjoint systems and (shape) derivatives in an automated fashion. As cashocs is based on the finite element software FEniCS, it inherits its simple, high-level user interface. This makes it straightforward to define and solve PDE constrained optimization problems with our software. In this paper, we discuss the design and functionalities of cashocs and also demonstrate its straightforward usability and applicability.

description: В статье представлены результаты анализа структуры институциональной среды двух российских регионов (Ханты-Мансийского автономного округа – Югры и Республики Татарстан), который послужил основой для разработки возможных сценариев развития социально-экономической системы регионов в период после начала падения объемов добычи нефти.
Сопоставление элементов институциональной среды выявило ряд отличий в организации нефтяной отрасли данных субъектов РФ. Выбранные регионы отличаются степенью влияния особенностей институциональной среды на траекторию развития и эффективность их социально-экономических систем. Представленное исследование является этапом изучения составных элементов институциональной среды нефтедобывающих регионов в период после падения объемов добычи нефти для выявления возможных путей эволюции социально-экономических систем данных регионов.
description: The article presents the results of the analysis of the structure of the institutional environment of two Russian regions: the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Ugra and the Republic of Tatarstan. This analysis serves as the basis for the construction of possible scenarios for the development of the social and economic system of regions in the period after the start of the decline in oil production.
The comparison of the elements of the institutional environment of the regions revealed several differences in the organization of the oil industry of the two regions. The selected regions differ in varying degrees of influence of the institutional environment characteristics on the development trajectory and the effectiveness of their social and economic systems.
This research is a phase in studying the constituent elements of the institutional environment of oil-producing regions in the period after the decline in oil production to identify possible ways of evolution of the social and economic systems of these regions.

description: The hexabasic book is the cone of the 1-dimensional skeleton of the union of two tetrahedra glued along a common face. The universal 3-dimensional polyhedron UP is the product of a segment and the hexabasic book. We show that any 2-dimensional link in 4-space is isotopic to a surface in UP. The proof is based on a representation of surfaces in 4-space by marked graphs, links with double intersections in 3-space. We construct a finitely presented semigroup whose central elements uniquely encode all isotopy classes of 2-dimensional links.

description: This Insight makes four key claims. First, evolutionary biology and the study of chimpanzees show that social animals have an emotional need for a stable, formal hierarchy. Second, sovereignty might be understood as a highly evolved and abstract solution to fill this basic need. Third, global interdependence and European integration challenge the existing formal hierarchy and sovereignty constructs within Member States. The EU therefore disrupts the existing formal hierarchy without providing a viable formal hierarchy in return. This reopens primal questions about hierarchy, identity and social stability. Fourth, instead of fighting sovereignty, the EU should therefore accept the underlying basic need for formal hierarchy as part of the human condition. Like every constitutional construct before it, the EU cannot go against the grain of human nature, and must therefore learn to accept, protect, and perhaps even celebrate some forms of formal hierarchy, including sovereignty, as well as the human emotions that come with it. Luckily, an evolutionary understanding of formal hierarchy and sovereignty also allows us to reconcile sovereignty with European integration. European law also offers sufficient footholds to embrace such an evolutionary concept of sovereignty.

description: In Taiwan, the traceability system (TS) of whole food chain is in infantile time. Yin Chuan Organic Farm, constituted by the team of rice production and marketing (TRPM), is the first brand in Taiwan rice market. The leader of TRPM is not only to produce the premising rice quality, but also to implement the (TS) that was introduced by Taiwan government with a great result and could be a successful experience passed to other proprietors. The findings of this paper are listed as following: 1. The TS executed by the case is only emphasized on the production side that needs to build more detailed marketing side. 2. The key successful factor to get sound TS model is to have obvious purposes and system harmony.

description: It is becoming increasingly difficult for the general public to attempt to assess risks using traditional methods such as smell, taste or other physical attributes of food. The existence of extrinsic cues such as the country of origin (COO) of food can help to make food purchase decisions easier for consumers. However, the use of extrinsic cues depends heavily on the extent to which consumers trust such signals to be indicative of quality or safety, which in turn depends on the credibility behind that cue. Using an ordered probit model, COO is examined as an extrinsic cue for food safety by looking at the relationship between trust in food safety information provided by national food standards agencies (NFSAs) and the EU Food Safety Authority (EUFSA) with nationally representative data from 2725 face-to-face interviews across five European countries. Results suggest that COO of food is an extrinsic cue for food safety and as consumers place increasing importance on food safety they are more interested in food produced in their own country. This, coupled with consumer trust in a strong, and independent national food standards agency, suggests the potential exists for the increased consumption of domestically produced foods.

description: The food industry is currently facing huge structural changes, such as growing concentration ratios and degrees of internationalization and as well as the reorganizations of food supply chains. Such developments do not only contribute to growing market risks but also require strategic reorientations on the part of food manufacturers. So far, risk management and strategic planning have been two fairly separated theoretical strands. In this paper we blend both schools of thought and analyze food manufacturers' perceived market risks and strategic risk management of food manufacturers. Empirical Our data stem from large-scale empirical research in the German brewing industry.
Complete complementarity relations in curved spacetimes

description: We extend complete complementarity relations to curved spacetimes by considering a succession of infinitesimal local Lorentz transformations, which implies that complementarity remains valid as the quanton travels through its world line and the complementarity aspects in different points of spacetime are connected. This result allows the study of these different complementary aspects of a quantum system as it travels through spacetime. In particular, we study the behavior of these different complementary properties of massive spin-$1/2$ particles in the Schwarzschild spacetime. For geodetic circular orbits, we find that the spin state of one particle oscillates between a separable and an entangled state. For non-geodetic circular orbits, we notice that the frequency of these oscillations gets bigger as the orbit gets nearer to the Schwarzschild radius $r_s$.

description: In this work we construct a novel associative algebra and use it to define a theory of higher-spin gravity in (2+1)-dimensional asymptotically flat spacetimes. Our construction is based on a quotient of the universal enveloping algebra (UEA) of $\mathfrak{isl}(2,\mathbb{R})$ with respect to the ideal generated by its Casimir elements, the mass squared $\mathcal{M}^2$ and the three-dimensional analogue of the square of the Pauli-Lubanski vector $\mathcal{S}$ and propose to call the resulting associative algebra $\mathfrak{ihs}(\mathcal{M}^2,\mathcal{S})$. We provide a definition of its generators and even though we are not yet able to provide the complete set of multiplication rules of this algebra our analysis allows us to study many interesting and relevant sub-structures of $\mathfrak{ihs}(\mathcal{M}^2,\mathcal{S})$. We then show how to consistently couple a scalar field to an $\mathfrak{ihs}(\mathcal{M}^2,\mathcal{S})$ higher-spin gauge theory.

Quark mixing and CP violation - the CKM matrix

description: I present the status of the elements and parameters of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix and summarise the related theoretical progress since "Lepton-Photon 2003". One finds |V_{us}| = 0.2227 +/- 0.0017 from K and tau decays and |V_{cb}| = (41.6 +/- 0.5) * 10^{-3} from inclusive semileptonic B decays. The unitarity triangle can now be determined from tree-level quantities alone and the result agrees well with the global fit including flavour-changing neutral current (FCNC) processes, which are sensitive to new physics. From the global fit one finds the three CKM angles theta_{12}=12.9 +/- 0.1 degrees, theta_{23}= 2.38 +/- 0.03 degrees and theta_{13}= 0.223 +/- 0.007 degrees in the standard PDG convention. The CP phase equals delta_{13} = gamma = (58.8 +5.3/-5.8) degrees at 1 sigma CL and gamma=(58.8 +11.2/-15.4) degrees at 2 sigma CL. A major progress are first results from fully unquenched lattice QCD computations for the hadronic quantities entering the UT fit. I further present the calculation of three-loop QCD corrections to the charm contribution in K+ -> pi+ nu nu-bar decays, which removes the last relevant theoretical uncertainty from the K -> pi nu nu-bar system. Finally I discuss mixing-induced CP asymmetries in b -> s q-bar q penguin decays, whose naive average is below its Standard Model value by 3 sigma.

Representation of the engineer : shifting definitions 1840-64
Creators: name: Rush, Peter G.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Between the perfection of the Daguerreotype and the Talbotype processes in 1840 and the International Exhibition of 1862, engineers commissioned portraits in these new and more traditional mediums. These portraits and depictions of engineering represent the uncertain , social position engineers occupied and the conflictual attitudes towards their work. To date, there remain relatively few portraits, despite the fact that a number of engineers became millionaires. That probably derives from the difficulty of depicting this new professional group within existing artisitic conventions. Consequently some of the most striking visages of individual engineers are in the early versions of the photographic medium suggesting the engineer's implementation of technology and industrial method to impose a new reality, or radically changed industrial environment, on contemporary society. Similarly, the few academic pictures of engineering works betray difficulties with the choice of appropriate pictorial typology and iconography. The majority of such representations derive from picturesque topographical traditions reflecting the prepondrance of touristic promotional books aimed at the rising middle class, (the members of which supported such manifestations of technical and social progress). Popular admiration and anxiety about the physical changes effected through engineering were more directly represented in the new illustrated journals where iconographic innovation was feasible.

description: One of the problems of modernizing the regions’ social and economic sphere is the increase of the competitiveness among mining enterprises. This can be achieved by reducing costs, improving product quality, and ensuring industrial safety. The article describes the directions of the mining industry digitalization. The author presents as well the advantages of implementing digital technologies in the process of forming the production cost and price of finished products, associated with increasing the efficiency of the resource base, optimizing the cost of materials and equipment, improving the system for predicting production failures, monitoring the implementation of the plan. The risks of using digital technology in mining enterprises due to insufficient automation of production processes, ensuring cybersecurity and staff qualification are listed. In addition, a substantiation of the existing potential and identified threats is given. The author also describes the technologies that are used in the context of the implementation of the federal and regional digitalization program or that are planned to be used next year by the coal mining industry in the region, and the problems associated with their implementation.

description: Considering the $B$ mesonic distribution amplitude $ϕ_{B2}$, we reinvestigated the $B$ ${\to}$ $PP$ (where $P$ $=$ $π$ and $K$) decays with the perturbative QCD (pQCD) approach based on the $k_{T}$ factorization for three scenarios. It is found that the contributions of $ϕ_{B2}$ to formfactors $F_{0}^{B{\to}P}(0)$ and branching ratios are comparable with those from the NLO corrections. The $B$ ${\to}$ $Kπ$ decays could be well explained by considering the $ϕ_{B2}$. Hence, when the nonleptonic $B$ decays are studied withe the pQCD approach, the $ϕ_{B2}$ should be taken into account seriously.

description: Complete characterization of particle production and emission in relativistic heavy-ion collisions is in general not feasible experimentally. This work demonstrates, however, that the availability of essentially complete pseudorapidity distributions for charged particles allows for a reliable estimate of the average transverse momenta and energy of emitted particles by requiring energy conservation in the process. The results of such an analysis for Au+Au collisions at sqrt{s_{NN}}= 130 and 200 GeV are compared with measurements of mean-p_T and mean-E_T in regions where such measurements are available. The mean-p_T dependence on pseudorapidity for Au+Au collisions at 130 and 200 GeV is given for different collision centralities.

The project combines the knowledge of food experts with decision-orientated approaches from microeconomics and the social sciences. It examines what it is that makes food business operators (from the feed industry to the retail trade) break (or not break) rules. Through the analysis of both economic incentives and social context factors, the project aims at contributing to an adequate design of prevention measures. Four offence-prone regulations identified in the course of the ongoing project are exemplarily examined with regard to the present incentive situation.

description: We report the high-field superconducting properties of thin, disordered Re films via magneto-transport and tunneling density of states measurements. Films with thicknesses in the range of 9 nm to 3 nm had normal state sheet resistances of $\sim$0.2 k$Ω$ to $\sim$1 k$Ω$ and corresponding transition temperatures in the range of 6 K to 3 K. Tunneling spectra were consistent with those of a moderate coupling BCS superconductor. Notwithstanding these unremarkable superconducting properties, the films exhibited an extraordinarily high upper critical field. We estimate their zero-temperature $H_{c2}$ to be more than twice the Pauli limit. Indeed, in 6 nm samples the estimated reduced critical field $H_{c2}/T_c\sim$ 5.6 T/K is among the highest reported for any elemental superconductor. Although the sheet resistances of the films were well below the quantum resistance $R_Q=h/4e^2$, their $H_{c2}$'s approached the theoretical upper limit of a strongly disordered superconductor for which $k_F\ell\sim1$.

description: Many consumers lack insight into today's complex food production systems. This paper investigates the relationship between consumer confidence in the safety of food in general and consumer trust in particular institutions and organisations. The first aim of the study was to develop and validate a scale to measure general consumer confidence in the safety of food. From the analysis, two distinct dimensions emerged that were labelled optimism and pessimism. The second aim of this study was to investigate to what extent general consumer confidence in the safety of food was related to consumer trust in institutions and organisations responsible for the management of food safety, taking into account three underlying dimensions of trust, namely competence, openness and care for public wellbeing. The results indicate that the degree to which trust was related to optimism and pessimism was dependent upon both the actor and the dimension of trust.

description: We demonstrate a novel all-optical switch consisting of two molecules: a primary fluorophore that can be switched between a fluorescent and a dark state by light of different wavelengths, and a secondary chromophore that facilitates switching. The interaction between the two molecules exhibits a distance dependence much steeper than that of Forster resonance energy transfer. This enables the switch to act as a ruler with the capability to probe distances difficult to access by other spectroscopic methods, thus presenting a new tool for the study of biomolecules at the single-molecule level.

description: We distinguish traditional implementations of autonomous Maxwell demons from related linear devices that were recently proposed, not relying on the notions of measurements and feedback control. In both cases a current seems to flow against its spontaneous direction (imposed, e.g., by a thermal or electric gradient) without external energy intake. However, in the latter case, this current inversion may only be apparent. Even if the currents exchanged between a system and its reservoirs are inverted (by creating additional independent currents between system and demon), this is not enough to conclude that the original current through the system has been inverted. We show that this distinction can be revealed locally by measuring the fluctuations of the system-reservoir currents.

description: Most researches on fluid dynamics are mostly dedicated to obtain the solutions of Navier-Stokes equation which governs fluid flow with particular boundary conditions and approximations. We propose an alternative approach to deal with fluid dynamics using the lagrangian. We attempt to develop a gauge invariant lagrangian which reconstructs the Navier-Stokes equation through the Euler-Lagrange equation. The lagrangian consists of gauge boson field $\A_μ$ with appropriate content describing the fluid dynamics, i.e. $\A_μ= (Φ, -\uv)$. An example of applying the lagrangian to the interaction of fluid in a solitonic medium is also given.

description: Western society is suffering an increasing risk regarding the food chain for several reasons. Longer geographical distances between producers and consumers, more stakeholders in the supply chain, less capacity of national governments to regulate and protect consumers due to globalisation and the liberalization process, with pressure to innovate and increase competitively.. During the period 2004-06, there is being carried out a research project in Spain, coordinated by the Polytechnic University of Madrid and sponsored by INIA. The goal is to understand the consumer behaviour identifying the attributes of food products and to transmit the results to the food industry entrepreneurs, in order to increase their efficiency in innovation.

description: Вопросы эффективного управления государственной и муниципальной собственностью актуализировались с принятием в декабре 2019 года федерального закона, запрещающего создание новых государственных и муниципальных унитарных предприятий на рынках товаров, работ или услуг, находящихся в условиях конкуренции, а также предусматривающего их ликвидацию или реорганизацию на конкурентных товарных рынках до 2025 года.
Проанализировав все недостатки правовой системы и сложившейся практики деятельности унитарных предприятий, авторы полагают, что экономический потенциал этой организационно-правовой формы предпринимательской деятельности используется недостаточно продуктивно и при соответствующем выборе целей и способов управления унитарными предприятиями они способны не только эффективно решать социально значимые задачи, но и приносить существенный доход в бюджеты разных уровней. Важно отметить, что выявленные недостатки системы нивелируются не посредством изменения организационно-правовой формы, а путем четкой регламентации прав и основ ведения хозяйственной деятельности.
description: The issues of effective management of state and municipal property were updated with the adoption of the Federal Law in December 2019. This law prohibits the creation of new state and municipal unitary enterprises in the markets for goods, labor, or services that are in a competitive environment, and provides for their liquidation or reconstruction in competitive commodity markets until 2025.
The article analyzes all the weaknesses of the legal system and the common practice of unitary enterprises. The authors assume that the economic potential of this form of a business organization remains not fully realized, and with the appropriate choice of goals and methods of managing unitary enterprises, they are able to effectively solve not only socially significant tasks, but also bring sufficient income to the budgets of different levels. It is important to note that the identified shortcomings of the system are leveled not by changing the organizational and legal form, but by clearly regulating the rights and principles of economic activity.
Entanglement spreading after local fermionic excitations in the XXZ chain

description: We study the spreading of entanglement produced by the time evolution of a local fermionic excitation created above the ground state of the XXZ chain. The resulting entropy profiles are investigated via density-matrix renormalization group calculations, and compared to a quasiparticle ansatz. In particular, we assume that the entanglement is dominantly carried by spinon excitations traveling at different velocities, and the entropy profile is reproduced by a probabilistic expression involving the density fraction of the spinons reaching the subsystem. The ansatz works well in the gapless phase for moderate values of the XXZ anisotropy, eventually deteriorating as other types of quasiparticle excitations gain spectral weight. Furthermore, if the initial state is excited by a local Majorana fermion, we observe a nontrivial rescaling of the entropy profiles. This effect is further investigated in a conformal field theory framework, carrying out calculations for the Luttinger liquid theory. Finally, we also consider excitations creating an antiferromagnetic domain wall in the gapped phase of the chain, and find again a modified quasiparticle ansatz with a multiplicative factor.

description: Objectifs Ce travail aborde le thème du genre et de la sexualité, par l’approche de la relation infirmière-patient. Le but est d’explorer le phénomène du harcèlement sexuel (HS) dans les soins, ainsi que d’identifier les stratégies mises en oeuvre par les infirmières ou les institutions pour faire face à ces situations. Contexte La profession infirmière est historiquement féminine, ce qui est encore le cas aujourd’hui puisque 84.4% des professionnel∙le∙s1 pratiquant en Suisse sont des femmes (Merçay, Burla & Widmer, 2016). Le dévouement, la passivité face aux médecins et l’hyper-sexualisation connotent encore fortement la profession infirmière. En parallèle, le métier a connu de grandes avancées, notamment grâce aux sciences infirmières, aux théoricien∙ne∙s, à la recherche mais également par la reconnaissance universitaire de la formation dans les pays occidentaux. Selon Strub & Schär Moser (2008), concernant le HS en Suisse, les femmes sont plus victimes que les hommes (respectivement 54.8% et 48.6%). Dans 79.1% des cas de HS subi par une femme, l’auteur est un homme (Strub & Schär Moser, 2008). Dans les soins infirmiers, en raison des différentes méthodologies utilisées les études, les taux d’incidence varient de 30% à 97% (Cogin & Fish, 2009). Méthode La méthode appliquée pour le recueil de données est celle de la revue de littérature. Les sept articles sélectionnés sont des sources primaires quantitatives et qualitatives traitant du HS, ou incluant le HS dans leur définition de la violence contre les infirmières. L’extraction des données est structurée selon les huit dimensions de la théorie du caring bureaucratique de Ray. Résultats Nous remarquons tout d’abord une absence de consensus autour de la définition HS. Aucune étude ne s’intéresse à l’efficacité des stratégies visant à réduire la prévalence de HS dans les soins. Néanmoins, nous relevons que les infirmier∙ère∙s mettent en place des comportements et des actions en réaction au HS, qui peuvent être catégorisées de stratégies infirmières. Pour reprendre le cadre théorique du caring bureaucratique de Ray, ces stratégies s’inscrivent dans la majorité des dimensions (physique, politique, économique, technologique, légale, socio-culturelle) sauf celle éducative. Recommandations Nos recommandations portent sur la nécessité d’une définition commune et universelle aux différents domaines d’études du HS. Pour ce faire, il sera important qu’elle ait un angle compréhensif du phénomène. Nous jugeons également nécessaire d’aborder la problématique du HS d’un point de vue éducatif, que cela soit au niveau de la formation infirmière ou de l’institution. À titre individuel, nous recommandons aux infirmier⋅ère⋅s de rendre visible le phénomène de HS permettant d’ériger des politiques claires condamnant le phénomène à large échelle.

description: We present the first X-ray observations with the XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL satellites of the recently discovered cataclysmic variable 1RXSJ173021.5-055933, together with simultaneous UV and coordinated optical photometry aiming at characterising its broad-band temporal and spectral properties and classifying this system as a magnetic one. We find that the X-ray light curve is dominated by the 128s spin period of the accreting white dwarf in contrast to the far-UV range, which turns out to be unmodulated at a 3sigma level. Near-UV and optical pulses are instead detected at twice the spin frequency. We identify the contributions from two accreting poles that imply a moderately inclined dipole field allowing, one pole to dominate at energies at least up to 10keV, and a secondary that instead is negligible above 5keV. X-ray spectral analysis reveals the presence of multiple emission components consisting of optically thin plasma with temperatures ranging from 0.17keV to 60keV and a hot blackbody at ~90eV. The spectrum is also strongly affected by peculiar absorption components consisting of two high-density (~3x10^(21)cm^(-2) and ~2x10^(23)cm^(-2)) intervening columns, plus a warm absorber. The last is detected from an OVII absorption edge at 0.74keV, which suggests that photoionization of pre-shock material is also occurring in this system. The observed properties indicate that the accretor in 1RXSJ173021.5-055933 is a white dwarf with a likely weak magnetic field, thus confirming this cataclysmic variable as an intermediate polar (IP) with one of the most extreme spin-to-orbit period ratios. This system also joins the small group of IPs showing a soft X-ray reprocessed component, suggesting that this characteristics is not uncommon in these systems.

description: In this paper, we present a new construction of asymmetric quantum codes (AQCs) by combining classical concatenated codes (CCs) with tensor product codes (TPCs), called asymmetric quantum concatenated and tensor product codes (AQCTPCs) which have the following three advantages. First, only the outer codes in AQCTPCs need to satisfy the orthogonal constraint in quantum codes, and any classical linear code can be used for the inner, which makes AQCTPCs very easy to construct. Second, most AQCTPCs are highly degenerate, which means they can correct many more errors than their classical TPC counterparts. Consequently, we construct several families of AQCs with better parameters than known results in the literature. Third, AQCTPCs can be efficiently decoded although they are degenerate, provided that the inner and outer codes are efficiently decodable. In particular, we significantly reduce the inner decoding complexity of TPCs from $Ω(n_2a^{n_1})(a>1)$ to $O(n_2)$ by considering error degeneracy, where $n_1$ and $n_2$ are the block length of the inner code and the outer code, respectively. Furthermore, we generalize our concatenation scheme by using the generalized CCs and TPCs correspondingly.
