description: We give in this paper a partial classification of the consistent quadratic gauge actions that can be written in terms of s-form fields. This provides a starting point to study the uniqueness of the Yang-Mills action as a deformation of Maxwell-like theories. We also show that it is impossible to write kinetic 1-form terms that can be consistently added to other 1-form actions such as tetrad gravity in four space-time dimensions even in the presence of a Minkowskian metric background.

Necropolitical Kashmir: mediating decolonization through postcolonial literature and posthuman knowledge
Creators: name: Sahni, Anmol
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2021

description: “Necropolitical Kashmir” examines how new Anglophone literature (post-2000), emerging from Kashmir— the epicenter of an armed separatist movement in India—mediate decolonization. The thesis focuses on two literary texts: The Collaborator (Penguin 2011) by Mirza Waheed and the graphic novel Munnu: A Boy from Kashmir (Fourth Estate 2015) by Malik Sajad. My aim in this thesis is to expand the gamut of postcolonial scholarship by studying texts that portray civil strife, militarization, insurgency, trauma, human rights violations, and death in the conflict zone of Kashmir. My literary analysis of the works is informed by two main inquiries. How do postcolonial writers blend ethics, aesthetics, and politics in dissenting to necropolitics and neocolonialism? How does contemporary postcolonial literature and theory interface with posthumanism and posthuman knowledge? In a broader sense, my thesis intends to foreground new English literature from Kashmir about state oppression within the English literary canon. Herein, my polemic against neocolonialism is twofold: (a) against state violence and necropolitics such as the militarized siege of Kashmir by the Indian state; (b) against canonization's epistemic violence that leaves pertinent postcolonial works like Munnu stranded on the periphery of the English canon. This thesis is a humble attempt to redress these issues by elucidating that writers like Mirza Waheed and Malik Sajad from Kashmir are heralding a new generation of Anglophone Indian writers by expanding the oeuvre of postcolonial writing as exemplified by the works of Salman Rushdie and Arundhati Roy. The novelty of such contemporary works as The Collaborator and Munnu is their blend of bold political voice that tackles postcolonial issues like border disputes and state-sponsored violence, alongside subtly depicting the vicissitudes of post-independence India.

description: We study the effect on CPP GMR of changing the order of the layers in a multilayer. Using a tight-binding simple cubic two band model (s-d), magneto-transport properties are calculated in the zero-temperature, zero-bias limit, within the Landauer-Buttiker formalism. We demonstrate that for layers of different thicknesses formed from a single magnetic metal and multilayers formed from two magnetic metals, the GMR ratio and its dependence on disorder is sensitive to the order of the layers. This effect disappears in the limit of large disorder, where the results of the widely-used Boltzmann approach to transport are restored.

title: Exchange Rate Pass-Through to Consumer Prices: Theory and Recent Evidence
Creators: name: Savoie-Chabot, Laurence
name: Khan, Mikael
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2015

description: In an open economy such as Canada’s, exchange rate movements can have a material impact on consumer prices. This is particularly important in the current context, with the significant depreciation of the Canadian dollar vis-a-vis the U.S. dollar since late 2012. This paper provides a broad overview of the various mechanisms by which exchange rate movements pass through to consumer prices and discusses the implications of exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) for the conduct of monetary policy. It then describes some of the tools used at the Bank of Canada to help quantify ERPT. We conclude by taking a closer look at the current situation in Canada, presenting a range of evidence that suggests ERPT has played an important role in recent inflation dynamics.
description: Dans une économie ouverte comme le Canada, les mouvements du taux de change peuvent avoir une incidence considérable sur les prix à la consommation. Ce constat revêt une importance particulière dans le contexte actuel où le dollar canadien s’est fortement déprécié depuis la fin de 2012 par rapport à la devise américaine. Dans cette étude, les auteurs brossent un portrait des divers mécanismes par lesquels les variations du taux de change se répercutent sur les prix à la consommation et analysent les conséquences de ce phénomène de transmission pour la conduite de la politique monétaire. Ils décrivent ensuite certains des outils qu’utilise la Banque du Canada pour mesurer le degré de transmission des mouvements de change. En conclusion, ils examinent de plus près la situation actuelle au Canada et présentent un éventail de faits qui donnent à penser que la transmission des variations du taux de change a grandement influé sur la dynamique récente de l’inflation.
title: ‘Ten thousand Esthers and Miriams by the million’: The dissemination and impact of Christian Science across early female adherents, 1885–1935
Creators: name: Khuddro, Melanie
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2023

description: This thesis explores the Christian Science faith through a feminist lens, analysing how it was 
received by and disseminated among its early female followers during its formative years. This 
is achieved by tracing groups of individuals across the first half a century of its charter and 
examining the parallels in their belief systems and capacity to access influential positions. Such 
views and achievements, it is argued, was a direct consequence of a theological and structural 
framework of the religion that fostered progressive notions of the concept of womanhood.
This thesis ultimately contends that Christian Science can be regarded as a feminist 
organisation within androcentric contexts. It moves away from classical feminist approaches
that dissect the founder, Mary Baker Eddy, or the doctrine of Christian Science in order to 
gauge the degree to which ‘feminist’ is an appropriate characterisation. Instead, it observes the 
output of the religion, and uses its membership profile to highlight how women affiliated with 
the Church were able to utilise their faith to further their status or overcome adversity on the 
basis of their sex. This will offer a new perspective in how academics might approach Christian 
Science to better understand an organisation that appears otherwise ambivalent to the feminist 
concerns of its era.
Broadly, three areas of examination are applied to this theory: religious leadership, marriage 
and domestic life, and political influence. It will be demonstrated that women within each 
domain actively pursued advantageous positions that had been either directly or inadvertently 
facilitated by Christian Science. Throughout the thesis, members’ own attitudes to 
contemporary developments of the ‘woman question’ will also be analysed. This will highlight 
the consistency in shaping and informing attitudes as it circulated across its followship and will 
further underscore a feminist effect of Christian Science.
title: A Structural Interpretation of the Recent Weakness in Business Investment

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2017

description: Since 2012, business investment growth has slowed considerably in advanced economies, averaging a little less than 2 per cent versus the 4 per cent growth rates experienced in the period leading up to crisis. Several recent studies have attributed a large part of the weakness in business investment to cyclical factors, including soft aggregate demand, and, to a lesser degree, heightened uncertainty and tighter financial conditions. In contrast, our analysis suggests that structural factors could provide an alternative explanation for the observed weakness in Canadian business investment. As a result, there is a risk that this weakness could prove to be much more persistent than cyclical interpretations suggest. Overall, population aging combined with two factors that could prove to be structural—weak productivity growth and the 2014–15 collapse in oil prices—could plausibly reduce the investment-to-output ratio by as much as 2 percentage points by 2020 relative to the average of 12 per cent observed since 2000, or an additional 0.9 percentage points relative to its 2016 value. This would have important implications for the economic outlook.
description: La croissance de l’investissement des entreprises a fortement ralenti dans les économies avancées depuis 2012 : elle se situe en moyenne à tout près de 2 %, contre 4 % avant la crise. Plusieurs études récentes ont expliqué la faiblesse de l’investissement des entreprises en attribuant un rôle prépondérant aux facteurs cycliques, notamment l’incidence d’une demande globale modérée et, à un moindre degré, le rôle joué par l’incertitude accrue et le resserrement des conditions de financement. Tranchant avec ces conclusions, nous montrons que des facteurs structurels offrent une autre explication à la faiblesse des dépenses d’investissement des entreprises canadiennes. En conséquence, il est possible que cette faiblesse persiste beaucoup plus longtemps que ne le laissent transparaître les interprétations cycliques. Globalement, le vieillissement démographique et deux facteurs de nature potentiellement structurelle — la croissance limitée de la productivité et l’effondrement des cours du pétrole en 2014-2015 — ensemble pourraient, plausiblement, faire baisser le ratio de l’investissement à la production jusqu’à 2 points de pourcentage d’ici 2020 par rapport à la moyenne de 12 % enregistrée depuis 2000, ou de 0,9 point de pourcentage supplémentaire par rapport à la valeur du ratio en 2016. Cette diminution aurait des répercussions importantes sur les perspectives de croissance de l’économie.

description: The most recent version of the Catalog of Spectroscopically Identified White Dwarfs lists 2249 white dwarf stars. Among these stars are 118 white dwarfs that have either reliable trigonometric parallaxes or color-based distance moduli which place them at a distance within 20 pc of the Sun. Most of these nearby white dwarfs are isolated stars, but 35 (30 % of the sample) are in binary systems, including such well known systems as Sirius A/B, and Procyon A/B. There are also three double degenerate systems in this sample of the local white dwarf population. The sample of local white dwarfs is largely complete out to 13 pc and the local density of white dwarf stars is found to be (5.5 +/- 0.8) x 10^-3 pc^-3 with a corresponding mass density of (3.7 +/- 0.5) x10^-3 M pc^-3.

title: The Optimal Level of the Inflation Target: A Selective Review of the Literature and Outstanding Issues
Creators: name: Kryvtsov, Oleksiy

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2015

description: Bank of Canada research done prior to the most recent renewal of the inflation-control agreement in 2011 concluded that the benefits associated with a target below 2 per cent were insufficient to justify the increased risk of being constrained by the zero lower bound (ZLB) on nominal interest rates. International experience and analysis since the 2011 renewal has reinforced the importance of the ZLB. Despite the deployment of unconventional monetary policy measures by many central banks, the ZLB has proven to be a more severe and persistent obstacle to the achievement of policy goals than expected. At the same time, analysis by the Bank and others has found that interest rates are likely to be lower on average in the future than they were during the first two decades of inflation targeting. As a consequence, the probability of being constrained by the ZLB is likely higher. Together, these factors suggest that a target above 2 per cent should be considered. This paper provides an overview of the current state of knowledge and key outstanding issues regarding the costs and benefits of a higher inflation target.
description: D’après les recherches effectuées à la Banque du Canada avant le dernier renouvellement de l’entente sur la maîtrise de l’inflation en 2011, les avantages découlant d’une cible inférieure à 2 % ne justifiaient pas le risque accru d’être contraints par la borne limitant à zéro les taux d’intérêt nominaux (la « borne du zéro »). L’expérience acquise et les analyses menées à l’échelle internationale depuis le renouvellement de 2011 ont confirmé l’importance de la borne du zéro. Bon nombre de banques centrales ont mis en place des mesures de politique monétaire non traditionnelles, mais la borne du zéro s’est révélée un obstacle à la réalisation des objectifs de politique monétaire plus grave et plus persistant que prévu. En outre, selon les analyses conduites à la Banque et ailleurs, les taux d’intérêt devraient à l’avenir être inférieurs en moyenne au niveau qu’ils affichaient pendant les vingt premières années du ciblage de l’inflation. Par conséquent, la probabilité d’être contraints par la borne du zéro est sans doute plus élevée qu’anticipé. Compte tenu de tous ces facteurs, une cible supérieure à 2 % devrait être considérée. Les auteurs présentent une vue d’ensemble de l’état actuel des connaissances ainsi que les principales questions en suspens entourant les avantages et les inconvénients d’une cible d’inflation supérieure.
title: Downward Nominal Wage Rigidity, Inflation and Unemployment: New Evidence Using Micro‐Level Data
Creators: name: Brouillette, Dany
name: Kyui, Natalia
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2017

description: Recent evidence suggests that the extent of downward nominal wage rigidity (DNWR) in the Canadian labour market has risen following the 2008–09 recession (see Brouillette, Kostyshyna and Kyui 2016). This note studies whether DNWR can lead to a long‐run trade‐off between inflation and unemployment, especially at lower rates of inflation—a question that has important implications for the optimal level of inflation in the long run. The results suggest that the trade‐off between unemployment and inflation remains weak despite the estimated increase in DNWR. In particular, the long‐run Phillips curve is close to vertical at inflation rates of 2 per cent or more, in line with earlier findings (Crawford and Wright 2001). As a result, an increase in long‐term inflation from 2 to 3 per cent would lower unemployment by about 0.1–0.2 percentage points. Overall, our results suggest that the benefits of raising the inflation target to attain a lower long‐term unemployment level seem rather weak.
description: Selon une étude récente, la rigidité à la baisse des salaires nominaux (RBSN) sur le marché canadien du travail aurait pris de l’ampleur à la suite de la récession de 2008‐2009 (voir Brouillette, Kostyshyna et Kyui, 2016). Dans la présente note, les auteurs examinent si la RBSN peut entraîner un arbitrage à long terme entre l’inflation et le chômage, surtout en contexte de bas taux d’inflation, une question qui a d’importantes implications pour le niveau d’inflation optimal à long terme. Les résultats portent à croire que l’arbitrage entre le chômage et l’inflation demeure faible malgré l’augmentation estimée de la RBSN. En particulier, la courbe de Phillips à long terme est presque verticale lorsque les taux d’inflation sont établis à 2 % ou plus, ce qui concorde avec les conclusions d’une étude antérieure (Crawford et Wright, 2001). Par conséquent, si le taux d’inflation à long terme augmentait pour passer de 2 à 3 %, le taux de chômage diminuerait d’environ 0,1 à 0,2 point de pourcentage. Dans l’ensemble, les résultats donnent à penser que le relèvement de la cible d’inflation afin d’atteindre à long terme un niveau de chômage plus bas est assez peu avantageux.

description: This note summarizes the Bank of Canada’s annual reassessment of potential output growth, conducted for the April 2017 Monetary Policy Report. Potential output growth is projected to increase from 1.3 per cent in 2017 to 1.6 per cent by 2020. The lower estimate for potential output growth in the near term (relative to the 2016 assessment) largely reflects distinctly weak business investment over 2015 and 2016, as well as reallocation costs associated with the adjustment to lower oil prices. However, potential output growth improves throughout the projection as investment is expected to pick up, with an increasing share in productivity-enhancing machinery and equipment. Population aging will act as a drag on potential output growth, with a small offset coming from higher levels of immigration. An analysis of alternative scenarios suggests a range of potential output growth from ±0.3 percentage points in 2017 to ±0.5 percentage points in 2020.
description: La présente note résume la réévaluation de la croissance de la production potentielle à laquelle procède annuellement la Banque du Canada et dont les résultats sont publiés dans le Rapport sur la politique monétaire d’avril 2017. Le taux de croissance de la production potentielle devrait passer de 1,3 % en 2017 à 1,6 % d’ici 2020. Cette estimation de la croissance de la production potentielle à court terme, plus basse que dans le Rapport de 2016, s’explique dans une large mesure par les investissements particulièrement faibles des entreprises en 2015 et en 2016, ainsi que par les coûts de réaffectation liés à l’ajustement à des prix du pétrole moins élevés. La croissance de la production potentielle s’améliore cependant tout au long de la période de projection, sous l’effet de l’accélération prévue des investissements, lesquels sont composés d’une part croissante d’investissements en machines et matériel, générateurs de productivité. Le vieillissement de la population exercera sur cette croissance un effet modérateur légèrement compensé par une hausse des niveaux d’immigration. Une analyse d’autres scénarios laisse entrevoir que la croissance de la production potentielle s’établira dans une fourchette qui passera de ±0,3 point de pourcentage en 2017 à ±0,5 point de pourcentage en 2020.
Surface-triggered cascade reactions between DNA linkers direct self-assembly of colloidal crystals of controllable thickness

description: Functionalizing colloids with reactive DNA linkers is a versatile way of programming self-assembly. DNA selectivity provides direct control over colloid-colloid interactions allowing the engineering of structures such as complex crystals or gels. However, self-assembly of localized and finite structures remains an open problem with many potential applications. In this work, we present a system in which functionalized surfaces initiate a cascade reaction between linkers leading to self-assembly of crystals with a controllable number of layers. Specifically, we consider colloidal particles functionalized by two families of complementary DNA linkers with mobile anchoring points, as found in experiments using emulsions or lipid bilayers. In bulk, intra-particle linkages formed by pairs of complementary linkers prevent the formation of inter-particle bridges and therefore colloid-colloid aggregation. However, colloids interact strongly with the surface given that the latter can destabilize intra-particle linkages. When in direct contact with the surface, colloids are activated, meaning that they feature more unpaired DNA linkers ready to react. Activated colloids can then capture and activate other colloids from the bulk through the formation of inter-particle linkages. Using simulations and theory, validated by existing experiments, we clarify the thermodynamics of the activation and binding process and explain how particle-particle interactions, within the adsorbed phase, weaken as a function of the distance from the surface. The latter observation underlies the possibility of self-assembling finite aggregates with controllable thickness and flat solid-gas interfaces. Our design suggests a new avenue to fabricate heterogeneous and finite structures.

Nebular spectra computed using PISN models have failed to reproduce the broad emission lines observed in these SNe, casting doubts on their true nature. Here, models of both PISNe and the explosion following the collapse of the core of a very massive star (100 Msun) are used to compute nebular spectra, which are compared to the spectrum of the prototypical PISN candidate, SN 2007bi. PISN models are confirmed to produce synthetic spectra showing narrow emission lines, resulting from the confinement of 56Ni to the lowest velocities (

description: We examine the problem of damage spreading in the off-equilibrium mode coupling equations. The study is done for the spherical $p$-spin model introduced by Crisanti, Horner and Sommers. For $p>2$ we show the existence of a temperature transition $T_0$ well above any relevant thermodynamic transition temperature. Above $T_0$ the asymptotic damage decays to zero while below $T_0$ it decays to a finite value independent of the initial damage. This transition is stable in the presence of asymmetry in the interactions. We discuss the physical origin of this peculiar phase transition which occurs as a consequence of the non-linear coupling between the damage and the two-time correlation functions.

These four indices were found to be highly correlated--leading to the conclusion that multivariate techniques need to be oriented to considering variables relating to specific elements of growth and development and not to incorporating large masses of intercorrelated data. For general measurement purposes, a simple income-based measure of economic well-being is a more efficient and just as valid measure as the more complex multivariate indices.

description: Ο διαχειριστής δυναμικής μνήμης αποτελεί μηχανή πεπερασμένων καταστάσεων. Προορίζεται για να διαχειρίζεται τη δυναμική μνήμη την οποία απαιτεί κάθε διεργασία για να εκτελεστεί ορθά και πάντοτε με κύριο στόχο τη μεγιστοποίηση της ευρωστίας του όλου συστήματος. Σήμερα οι εφαρμογές απαιτούν όλο και περισσότερη μνήμη. Επιπλέον ο ρυθμός συναλλαγών μεταξύ εφαρμογής και δυναμικά δεσμευμένης μνήμης, αυξάνει ραγδαία, ως αποτέλεσμα της ραγδαίας αύξησης των χρηστών και των προς στις εφαρμογές απαιτήσεων τους. Σημειωτέον είναι το γεγονός ότι οι διαχειριστές δυναμικής μνήμης είναι σχεδιασμένοι να συνδιαλλάσσονται με ασφαλείς εφαρμογές προερχόμενες από υπεύθυνο προγραμματισμό. Ωστόσο, σήμερα η πλειοψηφία των εφαρμογών δεν είναι ασφαλής λόγω τον χρηστοκεντρικών συστημάτων και των άναρχων γλωσσών προγραμματισμού. Συνεπώς δημιουργούνται κενά ασφαλείας που οδηγούν σε επιθέσεις κατά τις καίριας οντότητας του σωρού. Αντικείμενο λοιπόν της παρούσης διπλωματικής εργασίας είναι η μελέτη σεναρίων επιθέσεων και η ανάπτυξη μηχανισμών καταπολέμησής τους.
description: Dynamic memory manager is a finite state machine. It is designed to manage the dynamic memory that an application demands in order to work robustly, as well as efficiently. Nowadays applications demand large memory portions. Moreover the transaction ratio between applications and dynamic allocated memory increases rapidly due to the swift growth of users’ number and demands. On the other hand dynamic memory managers is a mechanism implemented in order to interact with trusted applications, meaning applications that are self secured resulting from responsible programming. However, nowadays, the majority of applications are not self secured. The combination of scripting languages, fast development and user centralized environments, ends up with applications full of security flaws. Many of these flaws can lead to attacks that are based on the betrayed vulnerabilities by the application dynamic memory manager, which assumes the robustness of application‘s security. Consequently the purpose of this paper is to find out the golden section between the security issue and the dynamic memory manager’s performance request. Thus it introduces several protection schemas as well as it presents in detail their internal implementation. Moreover it evaluates the specific security mechanisms through a series of benchmarking tests.

description: In this note, we provide a brief comparison of the recent developments in the labour markets in Canada and the United States. Our analysis indicates that slack remains in the Canadian labour market, while the US labour market is close to full employment. Canada’s negative labour input gap reflects weak average hours worked, whereas aggregate employment is getting close to its trend. In the United States, in contrast to Canada, both the level of employment and average hours worked are currently estimated to be at trend. The decomposition of the growth of average hours worked for Canada suggests that its overall decline is broad-based within each type of work (full-time/part-time), worker characteristics (region/age/sex) and sector (goods/services).
description: Dans cette note, nous faisons une brève comparaison de l’évolution récente des marchés du travail au Canada et aux États-Unis. Notre analyse indique qu’il reste encore des ressources inutilisées sur le marché du travail canadien, alors que le marché du travail américain est proche du plein emploi. L’écart du facteur travail négatif au Canada reflète la faiblesse du nombre moyen d’heures travaillées, tandis que l’emploi total se rapproche de sa tendance. Aux États-Unis, contrairement au Canada, le niveau de l’emploi et le nombre moyen d’heures travaillées sont estimés correspondre à la tendance. La décomposition de la croissance du nombre moyen d’heures travaillées pour le Canada indique que son déclin est généralisé par catégorie de travail (temps plein / temps partiel), par caractéristiques des travailleurs (région/âge/sexe) et par secteur (biens/services).

description: We study the universality class and critical properties of the electroweak theory at finite temperature. Such critical behaviour is found near the endpoint m_H=m_{H,c} of the line of first order electroweak phase transitions in a wide class of theories, including the Standard Model (SM) and a part of the parameter space of the Minimal Sypersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We find that the location of the endpoint corresponds to the Higgs mass m_{H,c} = 72(2) GeV in the SM with sin^2 theta_W = 0, and m_{H,c} < 80 GeV with sin^2 theta_W = 0.23. As experimentally m_H > 88 GeV, there is no electroweak phase transition in the SM. We compute the corresponding critical indices and provide strong evidence that the phase transitions near the endpoint fall into the three dimensional Ising universality class.

description: The field of high-energy neutrino astronomy is undergoing a rapid evolution. After the discovery of a diffuse flux of astrophysical TeV-PeV neutrinos in 2013, the IceCube observatory has recently found first compelling evidence for neutrino emission from blazars. In this brief review, I will summarize the status of these neutrino observations and highlight the strong role of multi-messenger astronomy for their interpretation.

description: We study the stabilization of one spatial dimension in (p+1+1)-dimensional spacetime in the presence of $p$-dimensional brane(s), a bulk cosmological constant and the Casimir force generated by a conformally coupled scalar field. We find general static solutions to the metric which require the fine-tuning of the inter-brane distance and the bulk cosmological constant (leaving the two brane tensions as free parameters) corresponding to a vanishing effective cosmological constant and a constant radion field. Taking these solutions as a background configuration, we perform a dimensional reduction and study the effective theory in the case of one- and two-brane configurations. We show that the radion field can have a positive mass squared, which corresponds to a stabilization of the extra dimension, only for a repulsive nature of the Casimir force. This type of solution requires the presence of a negative tension brane. The solutions with one or two positive tension branes arising in this theory turn out to have negative radion mass squared, and therefore are not stable.

description: This note estimates potential output growth for the global economy through 2019. While there is considerable uncertainty surrounding our estimates, overall we expect global potential output growth to rise modestly, from 3.1 per cent in 2016 to 3.4 per cent in 2019. This gradual increase is expected to be broad-based, reflecting growth-enhancing reforms in oil-importing emerging-market economies (excluding China) and in the euro area and the diminishing drag on investment in commodity-producing regions stemming from the 2014–15 decline in commodity prices. Potential output growth in the United States is expected to rise modestly through 2019 driven by a small recovery in trend total factor productivity growth. China is the only major economy where potential output growth is expected to slow, albeit moderately, as it gradually transitions to a more sustainable growth path featuring slower investment growth.
description: Dans la présente note, nous présentons nos estimations de la croissance de la production potentielle pour l’économie mondiale jusqu’en 2019. Bien que ces estimations soient entourées d’une incertitude considérable, globalement, nous prévoyons une légère augmentation du taux de croissance de la production potentielle à l’échelle mondiale, qui passerait de 3,1 % en 2016 à 3,4 % en 2019. Cette remontée graduelle devrait s’observer dans un grand nombre de pays, reflétant l’adoption de réformes visant à améliorer la croissance dans les pays émergents importateurs de pétrole (hormis la Chine) et la zone euro, ainsi que l’atténuation progressive de l’effet de freinage exercé sur les investissements par la baisse du prix des ressources naturelles en 2014-2015, dans les régions productrices de produits de base. La croissance de la production potentielle aux États-Unis devrait augmenter quelque peu d’ici 2019, à la faveur d’un léger rebond de la croissance de la productivité tendancielle totale des facteurs. Comme la Chine poursuit la transition qui la placera sur une trajectoire de croissance plus soutenable, caractérisée par une croissance plus lente des investissements, elle est la seule des grandes économies où la croissance de la production potentielle devrait ralentir, quoique modérément.
title: What Explains the Recent Increase in Canadian Corporate Bond Spreads
Creators: name: Leboeuf, Maxime

description: The spread between the yield of a corporate bond and the yield of a similar Government of Canada bond reflects compensation for possible default by the issuing firm and compensation for additional risks beyond default. Using the approach proposed by Gilchrist and Zakrajšek (2012), we find that roughly two-thirds of the total 1.2-percentage-point increase in corporate bond spreads from July 2014 to September 2016—a period when oil prices were low—is due to higher compensation for possible default. Default risk explains most of the increase of spreads for energy and high-yield firms but explains almost none of the increase for financial and investment-grade firms. This suggests that liquidity risk and other factors beyond possible default affected spreads of financial and other investment-grade firms.
description: L’écart entre le rendement d’une obligation de société et celui d’une obligation du gouvernement du Canada comparable correspond à la rémunération exigée en compensation de la possibilité de défaut de la société émettrice et en compensation d’autres risques que le défaut. En appliquant la méthode proposée par Gilchrist et Zakrajšek (2012), nous montrons qu’environ les deux tiers de l’accroissement total de 1,2 point de pourcentage des écarts de rendement sur obligations de sociétés entre juillet 2014 et septembre 2016 – soit une période de faibles prix pétroliers – sont attribuables à un surcroît de rémunération lié à la possibilité de défaut. Si le risque de défaut rend compte de la majeure partie de l’élargissement des écarts de rendement dans le cas des titres du secteur de l’énergie et des obligations à haut rendement, il est par contre loin d’expliquer l’augmentation quand il s’agit des sociétés financières et des entreprises émettrices de titres de bonne qualité. Ce constat donne à penser que le risque de liquidité et d’autres facteurs que la possibilité de défaut sont à l’origine de l’élargissement des écarts relatifs aux titres des sociétés financières et autres émetteurs de titres de bonne qualité.

Coarsening in a Driven Ising Chain with Conserved Dynamics

description: We study the low-temperature coarsening of an Ising chain subject to spin-exchange dynamics and a small driving force. This dynamical system reduces to a domain diffusion process, in which entire domains undergo nearest-neighbor hopping, except for the shortest domains -- dimers -- which undergo long-range hopping. This system is characterized by two independent length scales: the average domain length L(t)~t^{1/2} and the average dimer hopping distance l(t)~ t^{1/4}. As a consequence of these two scales, the density C_k(t) of domains of length k does not obey scaling. This breakdown of scaling also leads to the density of short domains decaying as t^{-5/4}, instead of the t^{-3/2} decay that would arise from pure domain diffusion.
