description: This paper reports results from a large recent study of the public domain in the European Union. Based on a combination of catalogue, commercial and survey data we present detailed fi gures both on the prices (and price di fferences) of in copyright and public domain material and on the usage of that material. Combined with the estimates for the size of the EU public domain presented in the companion paper Pollock and Stepan (2009) our results allow us to provide the fi rst quantitative estimate for the `value' of the public domain (i.e. welfare gains from its existence) in any jurisdiction.

description: We performed scattering experiments using a rubidium (Rb) atomic beam on paraffin films and measured the angular and velocity distributions of scattered atoms. The paraffin films were prepared in various ways and characterized by atomic force microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The films exhibited various roughnesses and crystal structures. The paraffin films preserved the spin polarization of the scattered atoms. The measured angular distributions of all prepared films were consistent with Knudsen's cosine law. The velocity distributions were well fitted by Maxwell's distribution, characterized by a temperature much closer to the film temperature than to the atomic-beam temperature. We therefore concluded that the Rb atoms were well thermalized with the paraffin films via single scattering events.

description: We consider neutrino mixings in supersymmetric SU(5) supplemented by a U(1) flavor symmetry. In particular, we show how bi-maximal neutrino mixings can be realized. Two scenarios for implementing the small mixing angle MSW solution, with one involving a sterile state $ν_s$ and maximal $ν_μ-ν_s$ mixing to resolve the atmospheric anomaly, are also discussed. Finally, a new mechanism for eliminating the asymptotic relations $m^{(0)}_μ =m^{(0)}_s$ and $m^{(0)}_e=m^{(0)}_d$, while retaining $m^{(0)}_τ=m^{(0)}_b$, is presented. It employs `matter' multiplets in the $15+\bar{15}$ of SU(5), and is consistent with the various oscillation scenarios, as well as with the unification at $M_{GUT}$ of the three gauge couplings.

description: Proximal gamma-ray spectroscopy recently emerged as a promising technique for non-stop monitoring of soil water content with possible applications in the field of precision farming. The potentialities of the method are investigated by means of Monte Carlo simulations applied to the reconstruction of gamma-ray spectra collected by a NaI scintillation detector permanently installed at an agricultural experimental site. A two steps simulation strategy based on a geometrical translational invariance is developed. The strengths of this approach are the reduction of computational time with respect to a direct source-detector simulation, the reconstruction of $^{40}K$, $^{232}Th$ and $^{238}U$ fundamental spectra, the customization in relation to different experimental scenarios and the investigation of effects due to individual variables for sensitivity studies. The reliability of the simulation is effectively validated against an experimental measurement with known soil water content and radionuclides abundances. The relation between soil water content and gamma signal is theoretically derived and applied to a Monte Carlo synthetic calibration performed with the specific soil composition of the experimental site. Ready to use general formulae and simulated coefficients for the estimation of soil water content are also provided adopting standard soil compositions. Linear regressions between input and output soil water contents, inferred from simulated $^{40}K$ and $^{208}Tl$ gamma signals, provide excellent results demonstrating the capability of the proposed method in estimating soil water content with an average uncertainty <1%.

Do homes that are more energy efficient consume less energy?: A structural equation model for England's residential sector

description: Energy consumption from the residential sector is a complex sociotechnical problem that can be explained using a combination of physical, demographic and behavioural characteristics of a dwelling and its occupants. A structural equation model (SEM) is introduced to calculate the magnitude and significance of explanatory variables on residential energy consumption. The benefit of this approach is that it explains the complex relationships that exist between manifest variables and their overall effect through direct, indirect and total effects on energy consumption. Using the English House Condition Survey (EHCS) consisting of 2531 unique cases, the main drivers behind residential energy consumption are found to be the number of household occupants, floor area, household income, dwelling efficiency (SAP), household heating patterns and living room temperature. In the multivariate case, SAP explains very little of the variance of residential energy consumption. However, this procedure fails to account for simultaneity bias between energy consumption and SAP. Using SEM its shown that dwelling energy efficiency (SAP), has reciprocal causality with dwelling energy consumption and the magnitude of these two effects are calculable. When nonrecursivity between SAP and energy consumption is allowed for, SAP is shown to have a moderately negative effect on energy consumption but conversely, homes with a propensity to consume more energy have a higher SAP rating and are therefore more efficient.

description: Polarized parton distribution functions are determined by using world data from the longitudinally polarized deep inelastic scattering experiments. A new parametrization of the parton distribution functions is adopted by taking into account the positivity and the counting rule. From the fit to the asymmetry data A_1, the polarized distribution functions of u and d valence quarks, sea quarks, and gluon are obtained. The results indicate that the quark spin content is ΔΣ=0.20 and 0.05 in the leading order (LO) and the next-to-leading-order (NLO) MS-bar scheme, respectively. However, if x dependence of the sea-quark distribution is fixed at small x by "perturbative QCD" and Regge theory, it becomes ΔΣ=0.24 ~ 0.28 in the NLO. The small-x behavior cannot be uniquely determined by the existing data, which indicates the importance of future experiments. From our analysis, we propose one set of LO distributions and two sets of NLO ones as the longitudinally-polarized parton distribution functions.

description: We have designed, fabricated and tested a robust superconducting ratchet device based on topologically frustrated spin-ice nanomagnets. The device is made of a magnetic Co honeycomb array embedded in a superconducting Nb film. This device is based on three simple mechanisms: i) the topology of the Co honeycomb array frustrates in-plane magnetic configurations in the array yielding a distribution of magnetic charges which can be ordered or disordered with in-plane magnetic fields, following spin-ice rules, ii) the local vertex magnetization, which consists of a magnetic half vortex with two charged magnetic Néel walls, iii) the interaction between superconducting vortices and the asymmetric potentials provided by the Néel walls. The combination of these elements leads to a superconducting ratchet effect. Thus, superconducting vortices driven by alternating forces and moving on magnetic half vortices generate a unidirectional net vortex flow. This ratchet effect is independent of the distribution of magnetic charges in the array.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We present a study of M(atrix) theory from a purely canonical viewpoint. In particular, we identify free particle asymptotic states of the model corresponding to the supergraviton multiplet of eleven dimensional supergravity. These states have a natural interpretation as excitations in the flat directions of the matrix model potential. Furthermore, we provide the split of the matrix model Hamiltonian into a free part describing the free propagation of these particle states along with the interaction Hamiltonian describing their interactions. Elementary quantum mechanical perturbation theory then yields an effective potential for these particles as an expansion in their inverse separation. Remarkably we find that the leading velocity independent terms of the effective potential cancel in agreement with the fact that there is no force between stationary D0 branes. The scheme we present provides a framework in which one can perturbatively compute the M(atrix) theory result for the eleven dimensional supergraviton S matrix.

Regulation, customer protection and customer engagement
Creators: name: Littlechild, Stephen
Publisher: name: Faculty of Economics
Year: 2011

description: The UK utility regulation framework developed in the 1980s was intended to improve on the restrictive, inefficient and burdensome regulatory approach in the US. But the UK regulatory process has itself now become increasingly burdensome. Meanwhile, utilities and customer groups in the US and Canada have developed methods of negotiating and settling regulatory issues that more directly reflect the interests of customers, often embody incentive price caps as in the UK, and avoid unduly burdensome regulatory processes. There is now scope for UK regulators to learn from overseas. This paper summarises these developments. It then examines how three UK utility regulators – the CAA, Ofgem and Ofwat - are responding to them. Briefly, the CAA has moved firmly in this direction, but Ofgem and Ofwat have nominally rejected it while seeking to secure many of the benefits of the approach via a less committed process. There is scope for governments to encourage a regulatory approach that offers the prospect of better outcomes for customers and a less onerous process for all concerned.

description: We employ a value chain analysis approach to examine the forces shaping the industry structure, entry and inter-firm governance modes. Forty largest global and regional companies in the ethanol manufacturing stage have been classified according to their pre-entry industry of origin. Firms with pre-entry history in feedstock supply have shown higher resilient to market shock especially compared to de novo firms. In addition, we observe a trend of dual-directional vertical integration. Firms backward integrate to secure feedstock supply; firms forward integrate to gain access to the retail market. Security of feedstock has been identified as a critical success factor of the manufacturer in this resource intensive industry. Another critical success factor is gaining control over the end user market via forward integration. We propose that critical success factor is the important determinants of inter-firm governance mode.

description: Internet of Things(IoT) devices, mobile phones, and robotic systems are often denied the power of deep learning algorithms due to their limited computing power. However, to provide time-critical services such as emergency response, home assistance, surveillance, etc, these devices often need real-time analysis of their camera data. This paper strives to offer a viable approach to integrate high-performance deep learning-based computer vision algorithms with low-resource and low-power devices by leveraging the computing power of the cloud. By offloading the computation work to the cloud, no dedicated hardware is needed to enable deep neural networks on existing low computing power devices. A Raspberry Pi based robot, Cloud Chaser, is built to demonstrate the power of using cloud computing to perform real-time vision tasks. Furthermore, to reduce latency and improve real-time performance, compression algorithms are proposed and evaluated for streaming real-time video frames to the cloud.

description: Delocalization problem for a two-dimensional non-interacting electron system is studied under a random magnetic field. With the presence of a random magnetic field, the Hall conductance carried by each eigenstate can become nonzero and quantized in units of $e^2/h$. Extended states are characterized by nonzero Hall conductance, and by studying finite-size scaling of the density of extended states, an insulator-metal phase transition is revealed. The metallic phase is found at the center of energy band which is separated from the localized states at the band tails by critical energies $\pm E_c$. Both localization exponent and the critical energy $E_c$ are shown to be dependent on the strength of random magnetic field.

description: The literature shows that for most UK industries privatization might be necessary but is not sufficient to produce economic benefits. Often prior changes in management or later changes in market structure and regulation have larger impacts than privatization itself. We ask what changes around privatization had the greatest impact on efficiency for UK electricity generators. We analyse the effects of privatization and other changes in incentives on plant efficiency using a newly compiled unbalanced panel of about 60 plants for the years 1980 to 2004. We measure efficiency as input demands for two standard inputs, fuel and labour as well as three air emissions, CO2, SO2, and NOx. We model the change in efficiency as a single intercept break and allow for the break to occur at an unknown date. Inference for breaks and break dates relies on Quandt-Andrews type tests. We find breaks associated with efficiency increases for fuel and labour. Breaks and efficiency changes for the three emissions are generally related to fuel efficiency though there are instances where efficiencies move in opposite directions suggesting trade-off between fuel efficiency and emissions exist. There are no breaks prior to privatization. All breaks occur after privatization. Efficiency increases first for labour and later for fuel. We conclude that electricity privatization like other UK privatizations was a unique event. Privatization was important to prepare the ground but it seems that only the subsequent restructuring of the industry, the reduction of political interference in fuel choice, and investment in new and more efficient generation technologies increased efficiency.

description: A regular clique in a regular graph is a clique such that every vertex outside of the clique is adjacent to the same positive number of vertices inside the clique. We continue the study of regular cliques in edge-regular graphs initiated by A. Neumaier in the 1980s and attracting current interest. We thus define a Neumaier graph to be an non-complete edge-regular graph containing a regular clique, and a strictly Neumaier graph to be a non-strongly regular Neumaier graph. We first prove some general results on Neumaier graphs and their feasible parameter tuples. We then apply these results to determine the smallest strictly Neumaier graph, which has $16$ vertices. Next we find the parameter tuples for all strictly Neumaier graphs having at most $24$ vertices. Finally, we give two sequences of graphs, each with $i^{\text{th}}$ element a strictly Neumaier graph containing a $2^{i}$-regular clique (where $i$ is a positive integer) and having parameters of an affine polar graph as an edge-regular graph. This answers questions recently posed by G. Greaves and J. Koolen.

description: In the framework of finite-dimensional Fock space models, for a predefined fixed mean number of particles $\bar{n}_{k}$, it is shown that there is a ``large'' multi-dimensional subspace $s_{\bar{n}_{k}}$ of initial pure states, in the space $S$ of all pure states, unitarily evolving to a subspace $S_{\bar{n}_{k}}$ of final pure states which yield $\bar{n}_{k}$. As an example, in particular it follows that the blackbody form of the mean number of particles $\bar{n}_{k}$ does not by itself contradict unitarity of black hole evaporation.

Phase transformation in two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks under compressive loading
Creators: name: Zhang, Jin

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: As a new class of two-dimensional (2D) materials, 2D covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are proven to possess remarkable electronic and magnetic properties. However, their mechanical behaviours remain almost unexplored. In this work, taking the recently synthesised dimethylmethylene-bridged triphenylamine (DTPA) sheet as an example, we investigate the mechanical behaviours of 2D COFs based on molecular dynamics simulations together with density functional theory calculations. A novel phase transformation is observed in DTPA sheets when a relatively large in-plane compressive strain is applied to them. Specifically, the crystal structures of the transformed phases are topographically different when the compressive loading is applied in different directions. The compression-induced phase transformation in DTPA sheets is attributed to the buckling of their kagome lattice structures and is found to have significant impacts on their material properties. After the phase transformation, Young's modulus, band gap and thermal conductivity of DTPA sheets are greatly reduced and become strongly anisotropic. Moreover, a large in-plane negative Poisson's ratio is found in the transformed phases of DTPA sheets. It is expected that the results of the compression-induced phase transformation and its influence on the material properties observed in the present DTPA sheets can be further extended to other 2D COFs, since most 2D COFs possess a similar kagome lattice structure.

description: This article reviews the main sources of data on the geographic composition of countries' external balance sheets, covering both international and country-specific sources. It examines the determinants of bilateral financial assets and liabilities and discusses how gravity models, traditionally used in the trade literature, have been applied to explain bilateral financial links. A new dataset is used to derive some stylized facts on how bilateral financial links look like, how they have evolved over time and how they compare with trade links. The role that cross-border financial links play in the international transmission of shocks is discussed, with reference to the 2007-2009 financial crisis.

On Identification of Bayesian DSGE Models

description: In recent years there has been increasing concern about the identification of parameters in dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models. Given the structure of DSGE models it may be difficult to determine whether a parameter is identified. For the researcher using Bayesian methods, a lack of identification may not be evident since the posterior of a parameter of interest may differ from its prior even if the parameter is unidentified. We show that this can even be the case even if the priors assumed on the structural parameters are independent. We suggest two Bayesian identification indicators that do not suffer from this difficulty and are relatively easy to compute. The first applies to DSGE models where the parameters can be partitioned into those that are known to be identified and the rest where it is not known whether they are identified. In such cases the marginal posterior of an unidentified parameter will equal the posterior expectation of the prior for that parameter conditional on the identified parameters. The second indicator is more generally applicable and considers the rate at which the posterior precision gets updated as the sample size (T) is increased. For identified parameters the posterior precision rises with T, whilst for an unidentified parameter its posterior precision may be updated but its rate of update will be slower than T. This result assumes that the identified parameters are -consistent, but similar differential rates of updates for identified and unidentified parameters can be established in the case of super consistent estimators. These results are illustrated by means of simple DSGE models.

description: A realization of the Yangian double with center $DY_\hbar(sl_2)_k$ of level $k(\not=0,-2)$ in terms of free boson fields is constructed. The screening currents are also presented, which commute with $DY_\hbar(sl_2)$ modulo total difference. In the $\hbar\to 0$ limit, the currents of Yangian double $DY_\hbar(sl_2)_k$ becomes the Feigin-Fuchs realization of affine Lie $sl(2)_k$, while the screening currents of Yangian double $DY_\hbar(sl_2)_k$ becomes the screening currents of the affine Lie algebra $sl(2)_k$.

Household Debt in Seventeenth-Century Württemberg: Evidence from Personal Inventories

Publisher: name: Faculty of Economics
Year: 2011

description: The “less-developed” interior of early modern Europe, especially the rural economy, is often regarded as financially comatose. This paper investigates this view using a rich dataset of marriage and death inventories for seventeenth-century Germany. It first analyzes how borrowing varied with gender, age, marital status, occupation, lifecycle juncture, date, and asset portfolios. It then explores the characteristics of debts, examining borrowing purposes, familial links, intracommunal ties, and documentary instruments. It finds that ordinary people, even in a “less-developed” economy in rural central Europe, sought to invest profitably, smooth consumption, bridge low liquidity, and hold savings in financial form.

Possible disordered ground states for close-packed polytypes and their diffraction patterns

name: Canright, Geoff S.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It has recently been shown that one-dimensional Ising problems can have degenerate, disordered ground states (GSs) over a finite range of coupling onstants, ie, without `fine tuning'. The disorder is however of a special kind, consisting of arbitrary mixtures of a short-period structure and its symmetry-degenerate partner or partners. In this exploratory study, we assume that the energetics of close-packed polytypes can be represented by an Ising Hamiltonian (which includes, in principle, all terms allowed by symmetry), and that (for simplicity) the close-packed triangular layers are unfaulted and monatomic. We then calculate the diffraction patterns along the stacking direction for the various possible kinds of disordered GSs. We find that some disordered GSs give diffraction patterns which are only weakly distinguished from their periodic counterparts, while in others the disorder is more clearly evident beneath the delta functions. Finally, in some cases, the long-ranged order of the layers is destroyed by the interference among the short-period structures and their symmetry-related partners, giving a diffraction spectrum which is purely continuous.
