description: The theoretical and the empirical analysis of the economic effects of social security will not always produce ambiguous results. The present study, which deals with the impact of social security on capital accumulation and the incidence of a social security payroll tax, supports the above statement. The theoretical analysis of the present study shows that the optimum method of financing social security, in a life-cycle growth model, depends on the relationship between the rate of interest and the rate of population growth. The theoretical analysis of this study also discussed the implication of private myopia and the consequences of maximizing a "paternalistic" rather than an "individualistic" utility for a representative individual. Finally, the incidence of social security payroll tax is theoretically examined in a partial as well as in a general equilibrium context. Conditions under which labor may bear "less than" or "greater than" 100 percent of the tax are examined too. In the empirical analysis, it is shown that the impact of social security and pension on aggregate private saving is inconclusive. However, with respect to the incidence of social security payroll tax, the present study supports the idea that the burden of the tax will be borne by labor and capital as well. This result is obtained by applying a "partial" tax on labor in the corporate sector of Indian economy as a representative of the developing countries as well as by applying econometric models to the United States economy as a representative of the developed countries.

description: Toward quantum machine learning deployed on imperfect near-term intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) processors, the entire physical implementation of should include as less as possible hand-designed modules with only a few ad-hoc parameters to be determined. This work presents such a hardware-friendly end-to-end quantum machine learning scheme that can be implemented with imperfect near-term intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) processors. The proposal transforms the machine learning task to the optimization of controlled quantum dynamics, in which the learning model is parameterized by experimentally tunable control variables. Our design also enables automated feature selection by encoding the raw input to quantum states through agent control variables. Comparing with the gate-based parameterized quantum circuits, the proposed end-to-end quantum learning model is easy to implement as there are only few ad-hoc parameters to be determined. Numerical simulations on the benchmarking MNIST dataset demonstrate that the model can achieve high performance using only 3-5 qubits without downsizing the dataset, which shows great potential for accomplishing large-scale real-world learning tasks on NISQ processors.arning models. The scheme is promising for efficiently performing large-scale real-world learning tasks using intermediate-scale quantum processors.

AN EXPLORATORY STUDY OF THE UTILITY OF THE DECISION INFORMATION DISPLAY SYSTEM FOR DECISION MAKING AND POLICY ANALYSIS
Creators: name: Wallace, Doris Nadine
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The Decision Information Display System (DIDS) is an interactive, computerized graphics display system which produces colored maps on a terminal screen and prints or phototransparencies. Designed to assist policy makers, its data base contains geobased, statistical data from Federal and state agencies. The research addressed questions as to how and to what extent DIDS may have contributed to decision making and policy analyses. The main thesis was that DIDS enables users to obtain and analyze new information, primarily in the intelligence stage of decision making, and that it also increased their understanding of geobased data, and the capability to communicate spatially-oriented information. The author studied ten cases in which the system was used. An interview guide, comprised of questions based on experience and the literature on decision-making processes and decision support systems, was employed to obtain information for testing four hypotheses related to the main thesis. Six hypotheses were tested to describe the users and their organizational support, to categorize decision-making functions, and to determine DIDS' utility for policy analysis. The studies indicate that analysts and middle-level managers were its foremost direct users, although top-level managers did examine some of the hard-copy maps produced by the system. Most analysts gained some new insights or confirmed their hypotheses; and in certain cases, information influenced decision making. DIDS demonstrated the potential to contribute to the intelligence stage of decision making in strategic planning applications, as well as issues involving the equitable distribution of policy variables. The technology can also enhance the mixed-scanning approach to policy analysis proposed by Amitai Etzioni. The studies also showed that the utility of the system was very sensitive to data availability, timeliness, accuracy, documentation, aggregation levels, and processes for entry of data to the data base. Several users needed statistical capabilities which were available later in the system development. Users found the capabilities for color, on-line adjustment of levels on the maps legend, the enlarged display of specific regions, and the very rapid comparison of variables using bivariate maps, to be helpful for both analyses and communications.

description: This paper presents an iterative training of neural networks for intra prediction in a block-based image and video codec. First, the neural networks are trained on blocks arising from the codec partitioning of images, each paired with its context. Then, iteratively, blocks are collected from the partitioning of images via the codec including the neural networks trained at the previous iteration, each paired with its context, and the neural networks are retrained on the new pairs. Thanks to this training, the neural networks can learn intra prediction functions that both stand out from those already in the initial codec and boost the codec in terms of rate-distortion. Moreover, the iterative process allows the design of training data cleansings essential for the neural network training. When the iteratively trained neural networks are put into H.265 (HM-16.15), -4.2% of mean dB-rate reduction is obtained. By moving them into H.266 (VTM-5.0), the mean dB-rate reduction reaches -1.9%.

description: It has long been proposed that doping a chiral spin liquid (CSL) or fractional quantum Hall state can give rise to topological superconductivity. Despite of intensive effort, definitive evidences still remain lacking. We address this problem by studying the $t$-$J$ model supplemented by time-reversal symmetry breaking chiral interaction $J_χ$ on the triangular lattice using density-matrix renormalization group with a finite concentration $δ$ of doped holes. It has been established that the undoped, i.e., $δ$=0, system has a CSL ground state in the parameter region $0.32\le J_χ/J \le 0.56$. Upon light doping, we find that the ground state of the system is consistent with a Luther-Emery liquid with power-law superconducting and charge-density-wave correlations but short-range spin-spin correlations. In particular, the superconducting correlations, whose pairing symmetry is consistent with $d\pm id$-wave, are dominant at all hole doping concentrations. Our results provide direct evidences that doping the CSL on the triangular lattice can naturally give rise to topological superconductivity.

description: We generalize the concept of geometrical resonance to perturbed sine-Gordon, Nonlinear Schrödinger and Complex Ginzburg-Landau equations. Using this theory we can control different dynamical patterns. For instance, we can stabilize breathers and oscillatory patterns of large amplitudes successfully avoiding chaos. On the other hand, this method can be used to suppress spatiotemporal chaos and turbulence in systems where these phenomena are already present. This method can be generalized to even more general spatiotemporal systems.

description: The growing demand for alternative energy sources has further the interest on biomass over the last decades. Biomass is one of the main renewable sources of energy available. Water melon wastes is a readily available biomass which could be converted into biofuels and bioenergy by various processes. However, there is the need to remove moisture from this biomass by drying prior to storage and some conversion processes. The method of drying affects the drying characteristics of a biomass, hence, the effect of drying methods on drying characteristics of Water melon waste was investigated.

description: We describe a novel method of fabricating atom chips that are well suited to the production and manipulation of atomic Bose-Einstein condensates. Our chip was created using a silver foil and simple micro-cutting techniques without the need for photolithography. It can sustain larger currents than conventional chips, and is compatible with the patterning of complex trapping potentials. A near pure Bose-Einstein condensate of 4 $\times$ 10$^4$ $^{87}$Rb atoms has been created in a magnetic microtrap formed by currents through wires on the chip. We have observed the fragmentation of atom clouds in close proximity to the silver conductors. The fragmentation has different characteristic features to those seen with copper conductors.

description: The Harvey murine sarcoma virus (HaMSV) has been cloned and induces focus formation on NIH 3T3 cells. Recombinants of this virus have been constructed which include the thymidine kinase gene of Herpes simplex type 1 virus in a downstream linkage with the P21 ras gene of HaMSV. Virus (HaMSVtk) rescued from cells transfected with this construct is both thymidine kinase positive and focus inducing in in vitro transmission studies. The HAT selectability of the thymidine kinase gene has been exploited to develop three mutants defective in the p21 ras sequence. All three are focus negative and thymidine kinase positive when transmitted to suitable cells. Clones 9 and 20 are characterized by genomic message containing both Harvey ras and thymidine kinase information. Clone 45 produces a more attenuated non-ras, thymidine kinase message. All three produce varying amounts of a subgenomic non-ras thymidine kinase message. Only clone 9 encodes a p22 immunologically related to p21. The clone 9 mutant has been used to explore the relationship between the known characteristics of p21 and cellular transformation. Observations made in these studies have led to the conclusion that the p21 of HaMSV consists of at least two domains. One domain specifies the guanine nucleotide-binding activity of p21 and the second is involved in membrane association in transformed cells. The processing, fatty acid binding, and membrane association of this newly developed mutant protein are explored in this context.

description: It is shown that for a given bipartite density matrix and by choosing a suitable separable set (instead of product set) on the separable-entangled boundary, optimal Lewenstein-Sanpera (L-S) decomposition can be obtained via optimization for a generic entangled density matrix. Based on this, We obtain optimal L-S decomposition for some bipartite systems such as $2\otimes 2$ and $2\otimes 3$ Bell decomposable states, generic two qubit state in Wootters basis, iso-concurrence decomposable states, states obtained from BD states via one parameter and three parameters local operations and classical communications (LOCC), $d\otimes d$ Werner and isotropic states, and a one parameter $3\otimes 3$ state. We also obtain the optimal decomposition for multi partite isotropic state. It is shown that in all $2\otimes 2$ systems considered here the average concurrence of the decomposition is equal to the concurrence. We also show that for some $2\otimes 3$ Bell decomposable states the average concurrence of the decomposition is equal to the lower bound of the concurrence of state presented recently in [Buchleitner et al, quant-ph/0302144], so an exact expression for concurrence of these states is obtained. It is also shown that for $d\otimes d$ isotropic state where decomposition leads to a separable and an entangled pure state, the average I-concurrence of the decomposition is equal to the I-concurrence of the state.

description: The symmetry energy obtained with the effective Skyrme energy density functional is related to the values of isoscalar effective mass and isovector effective mass, which is also indirectly related to the incompressibility of symmetric nuclear matter. In this work, we analyze the values of symmetry energy and its related nuclear matter parameters in five-dimensional parameter space by describing the heavy ion collision data, such as isospin diffusion data at 35 MeV/u and 50 MeV/u, neutron skin of $^{208}$Pb, and tidal deformability and maximum mass of neutron star. We obtain the parameter sets which can describe the isospin diffusion, neutron skin, tidal deformability and maximum mass of neutron star, and give the incompressibility $K_0$=250.23$\pm$20.16 MeV, symmetry energy coefficient $S_0$=31.35$\pm$2.08 MeV, the slope of symmetry energy $L$=59.57$\pm$10.06 MeV, isoscalar effective mass $m_s^*/m$=0.75$\pm$0.05 and quantity related to effective mass splitting $f_I$=0.005$\pm$0.170. At two times normal density, the symmetry energy we obtained is in 35-55 MeV. To reduce the large uncertainties of $f_I$, more critical works in heavy ion collisions at different beam energies are needed.

The r-mode instability windows of the stars show the theoretical result accords with the rapid rotation pulsar data. The fit gives a strong indication for the existence of quark matter in the interior of neutron stars. Hybrid stars instead of neutron or strange stars may result in submillisecond pulsars if they exist.

description: We investigate several predictions about the properties of IIB flux vacua on Calabi-Yau orientifolds, by constructing and characterizing a very large set of vacua in a specific example, an orientifold of the Calabi-Yau hypersurface in $WP^{4}_{1,1,1,1,4}$. We find support for the prediction of Ashok and Douglas that the density of vacua on moduli space is governed by ${\rm det}(-R - ω)$ where $R$ and $ω$ are curvature and Kähler forms on the moduli space. The conifold point $ψ=1$ on moduli space therefore serves as an attractor, with a significant fraction of the flux vacua contained in a small neighborhood surrounding $ψ=1$. We also study the functional dependence of the number of flux vacua on the D3 charge in the fluxes, finding simple power law growth.

description: This dissertation studies portrayals of father-daughter relationships in European marchen and in the novels of nineteenth- and twentieth-century women writers. The marchen section includes representative fairy tales from a number of European countries. The nineteenth-century works discussed are Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth Gaskell's North and South, Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, Kate Chopin's The Awakening, and Edith Wharton's Summer. The modern works are Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse, Elizabeth Bowen's Eva Trout, Margaret Atwood's Surfacing, and Mary Gordon's Final Payments. In European marchen, the father of daughters frequently are shown as tyrannical or possessive in their behavior toward their daughters. To attain maturity and independence, a young female protagonist must outwit her father and challenge his authority. This theme is sustained in the novels discussed here. These nineteenth- and twentieth-century women writers view conflict with the father, or father-figure, as an inevitable and essential element in their heroines' progress toward maturity. Commonly, the conflict occurs during a young woman's adolescence and is resolved when a father is able to accept his daughter as an independent adult. If a father refuses to relinquish his authority over his daughter, or if she fails to confront him, her emotional growth is inhibited and she remains childlike and dependent. The feminist argument implicit in these novels employs the father-daughter conflict as a metaphor for the struggles of women in a patriarchal society. The female protagonist's ability to cope in that society is represented through her ability to challenge her father's authority.

Simple and Accurate Computations of Solvatochromic Shifts in pi -> pi* Transitions of Aromatic Chromophors

description: A new approach is introduced for calculating the spectral shifts of the most bathochromic pi -> pi* transition of an aromatic chromophore in apolar environments. As an example, perylene in solid and liquid n-alkane matrices was chosen, and all shifts are calculated relative to one well-defined solid-inclusion system. It is shown that a simple two-level treatment of the solute using Huckel theory yields spectral shifts in excellent agreement with experimental results for the most prominent inclusion sites of perylene in solid n-alkane surroundings and for the dilute solutions in liquid n-alkanes. The idea is general enough to be applied to any aromatic chromophore in a nonpolar solvent matrix. In contrast to earlier treatments, this approach is based on geometry-dependent polarizabilities, employs a r^-4 dependence for the dispersion energy, is conceptually simple and computationally efficient. Different simple models based on our general approach to compute the UV spectral shifts due to solvation indicate that the dispersive part of the van-der-Waals energy, which stabilizes the LUMO of perylene more than the HOMO, falls off with a distance dependence of r^-4 in a range up to ~1 nm and not as r^-6, as has been assumed for a long time. This finding corresponds to the interpretation of temporary dipoles as being equivalent to weak permanent dipoles with fluctuating orientation.

Designer Flat Bands in Quasi-One-Dimensional Atomic Lattices

description: Certain lattices with specific geometries have one or more spectral bands that are strictly flat, i.e. the electron energy is independent of the momentum. This can occur robustly irrespective of the specific couplings between the lattices sites due to the lattice symmetry, or it can result from fine-tuned couplings between the lattice sites. While the theoretical picture behind flat electronic bands is well-developed, experimental realization of these lattices has proven challenging. Utilizing scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS), we manipulate individual vacancies in a chlorine monolayer on Cu(100) to construct various atomically precise 1D lattices with engineered flat bands. We realize experimentally both gapped and gapless flat band systems with single or multiple flat bands. We also demonstrate tuneability of the energy of the flat bands and how they can be switched "on" and "off" by breaking and restoring the symmetry of the lattice geometry. The experimental findings are corroborated by tight-binding calculations. Our results constitute the first experimental realizations of engineered flat bands in a 1D solid-state system and pave the way towards the construction of e.g. topological flat band systems and experimental tests of flat-band-assisted superconductivity in a fully controlled system.

THE SPANISH QUESTION IN MEXICO: LAZARO CARDENAS AND THE SPANISH REPUBLICANS

description: This dissertation describes Mexico's relationship with the Second Spanish Republic and analyzes President Lazaro Cardenas' influence on this policy. Cardenas institutionalized the foreign policy of the Mexican Revolution during his six-year term (1934-1940) and used this policy to establish close political and personal ties with the Republic. These ties flourished until his death in 1970. His successors continued to support the Republic with no deviation from the path charted by Cardenas. In 1931 Mexican President Pascual Ortiz Rubio warmly heralded the birth of the Second Spanish Republic. When the Spanish Civil War began in 1936, President Cardenas pledged Mexico's official support for the Republic. He immediately shipped food and weapons to Spain, and ordered Mexico's representatives in the League of Nations to defend the Republic against the Nonintervention Pact of the great powers. The Civil War ended in 1939. Cardenas immediately announced that Spanish refugees would be welcomed in Mexico. The Mexican government worked with other nations to assist the refugees who poured into France from Spain and helped many to emigrate to Mexico. This immigration continued throughout the 1940's and brought many talented new residents to Mexico. Mexico allowed the exiles to set up an organization which finally evolved into a government-in-exile which was formed in Mexico City in 1945. President Avila Camacho recognized the government-in-exile as the true government of Spain, and his successors continued to maintain this relationship until 1977--two years after Franco's death. Mexico's refusal to recognize Francisco Franco was an extraordinary episode in her diplomatic history, and can be traced, at least to a great extent, to the continuing influence of Lazaro Cardenas. Cardenas believed strongly that the Republic was the legally elected government of Spain and that Franco had been imposed with the assistance of foreign governments. For this reason, he continued to support the Republic and to quietly urge his successors to continue to recognize the government-in-exile. For Cardenas, Mexico's policy toward Spain was an ideal example of the foreign policy of the Revolution.
