description: We discuss the effect of weak bond-disorder in two-leg spin ladders on the dispersion relation of the elementary triplet excitations with a particular focus on the appearance of bound states in the spin gap. Both the cases of modified exchange couplings on the rungs and the legs of the ladder are analyzed. Based on a projection on the single-triplet subspace, the single-impurity and small cluster problems are treated analytically in the strong-coupling limit. Numerically, we study the problem of a single impurity in a spin ladder by exact diagonalization to obtain the low-lying excitations. At finite concentrations and to leading order in the inter-rung coupling, we compare the spectra obtained from numerical diagonalization of large systems within the single-triplet subspace with the results of diagrammatic techniques, namely low-concentration and coherent-potential approximations. The contribution of small impurity clusters to the density of states is also discussed.

description: A two-dimensional superintegrable system of singular oscillators with internal degrees of freedom is identified and exactly solved. Its symmetry algebra is seen to be the dual $-1$ Hahn algebra which describes the bispectral properties of the polynomials with the same name that are essentially the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients of the superconformal algebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$. It is also shown how this superintegrable model is obtained under dimensional reduction from a set of uncoupled harmonic oscillators in four dimensions.

description: The Canadian Farm Products Agencies Act (2012) requires that comparative advantage be used to guide the allocation of new quota under supply management. This requirement, however, has not been met in practice. Agricultural economists have proposed several ways of making this legal requirement operational. We review and evaluate these proposed approaches and find that quota prices are the only direct measure of comparative advantage in supply managed industries. We develop an agent-based general equilibrium model of quota exchange to illustrate the use of quota prices as indicators of comparative advantage. Our approach complements the proposal by Meilke (2009) to use quota prices as indicators of comparative advantage in supply managed industries and also addresses the concerns of Larue and Gervais (2008) that quota prices may not be theoretically consistent with comparative advantage. We also discuss potential practical challenges of using quota prices as indicators of comparative advantage in the Canadian supply managed industries. Finally, we provide an example of calculating provincial shares of new quota using recent quota price data according to two prototype decision rules.

description: In 2011, the Canadian Agrifood Policy Institute released an report highlighting the importance of the agrifood sector to the economy and concluded by stating the need for Canada to double the dollar value of agrifood exports to ensure the viability of the system. This paper seeks to estimate Engel elasticities faced by Canada and four other major agrifood exporter groups for two groups of emerging economies known as the Next-11 and the BRICs, and to forecast the value of agrifood exports to 2017. The findings suggest that despite the relatively low Engel elasticities for agrifood imports faced by Canada, it could sell an additional $3.65 billion in agrifood products to the Next-11 and BRICs by 2017.

description: In this article, we focus on investigating the focusing Kundu-Eckhaus equation with nonzero boundary condition. A appropriate two-sheeted Riemann surface is introduced to map the spectral parameter $k$ into a single-valued parameter $z$. Starting from the Lax pair of Kundu-Eckhaus equation,two kind of Jost solutions are construed. Further their asymptotic, analyticity, symmetries as well as spectral matrix are detailed analyzed. It is shown that the solution of Kundu-Eckhaus equation with nonzero boundary condition can characterized with a matrix Riemann-Hilbert problem. Then a formula of $N$-soliton solutions is derived by solving Riemann-Hilbert problem. As applications, the first-order explicit soliton solution is obtained.

description: The proliferation of regional trade agreements (RTAs) has motivated a significant number of ex post econometric studies investigating their agricultural trade impacts. The general conclusion is that RTAs increase members’ trade by as much as 150 percent, on average. In this article, we demonstrate that previous empirical work likely misrepresents the impact of RTAs because of considerable heterogeneity in the depth of economic integration pursued by these agreements. Contrary to previous studies, the results reveal that RTAs are not universally trade creating, and some agreements appear to provide very little benefit. “Deep integration agreements”, on the other hand, are largely responsible for the impressive agricultural trade flow increases reported in the literature. Testing the hierarchy of RTAs largely confirms the theory: the benefits of regionalism are an increasing function of the depth of economic integration.

description: By solving the two variable differential equations which arise from finding the eigenfunctions for the Casimir operator for $O(d,2)$ succinct expressions are found for the functions, conformal partial waves, representing the contribution of an operator of arbitrary scale dimension $Δ$ and spin $\ell$ together with its descendants to conformal four point functions for $d=4$, recovering old results, and also for $d=6$. The results are expressed in terms of ordinary hypergeometric functions of variables $x,z$ which are simply related to the usual conformal invariants. An expression for the conformal partial wave amplitude valid for any dimension is also found in terms of a sum over two variable symmetric Jack polynomials which is used to derive relations for the conformal partial waves.

description: Negotiators from developed countries pushed hard for the inclusion of the TRIPS Agreement in the WTO set of agreements because it was viewed as a potentially effective method of coercing developing countries to strengthen their protection of intellectual property rights (IPR). We investigate whether the threat of cross-agreement retaliation, which could be authorized in disputes regarding the TRIPS Agreement, is effective in changing countries’ IPR protection regimes. The results from a panel empirical model suggest that both the TRIPS Agreement and the strength of trade ties with developed countries are important determinants of IPR protection, but that the vulnerability to potential trade losses through cross-agreement retaliation is not a uniformly significant determinant across geo-economic regions. We conclude that the threat of trade retaliation is just one important determinant of countries’ institutional protection of IPR.

description: Mixing iodide and bromide in halide perovskite semiconductors is an effective strategy to tune their bandgap, therefore mixed-halide perovskites hold great promise for color-tunable LEDs and tandem solar cells. However, the bandgap of mixed-halide perovskites is unstable under (sun-)light, since the halides segregate into domains of different bandgaps. Using pressure-dependent ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy, we show that high external pressure increases the range of thermodynamically stable halide mixing ratios. Chemical pressure, by inserting a smaller cation, has the same effect, which means that any iodide-to-bromide ratio can be thermodynamically stabilized by tuning the crystal volume and compressibility. We interpret this stabilization by an alteration of the Helmholtz free energy via the largely overlooked PdeltaV term.

description: The study of the two-body photodisintegration of the deuteron in the few GeV region is the ideal reaction to clarify the transition from the nucleonic degrees of freedom to the QCD picture of hadrons. The CLAS large angle spectrometer of Hall B at Jlab allowed for the first time the complete measurement of the angular distribution of the differential cross section at photon energy between 0.5 and 3 GeV. Preliminary results of the E93-017 experiment from the analysis of the 30% of the total statistic accumulated show persistent forward-backward asymmetry and are well described by the recent calculation of the deuteron photodisintegration cross section derived in the framework of the Quark Gluon String Model.

description: We show that the states generated by a three-mode spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) interaction Hamiltonian possess tripartite entanglement of a different nature to other paradigmatic three-mode entangled states generated by the combination of two-mode SPDCs interactions. While two-mode SPDC generates gaussian states whose entanglement can be characterized by standard criteria based on two-mode quantum correlations, these criteria fail to capture the entanglement generated by three-mode SPDC. We use criteria built from three-mode correlation functions to show that the class of states recently generated in a superconducting-circuit implementation of three-mode SPDC ideally have tripartite entanglement, contrary to recent claims in the literature. These criteria are suitable for triple SPDC but we show that they fail to detect tripartite entanglement in other states which are known to possess it, which illustrates the existence of two fundamentally different notions of tripartite entanglement in three-mode continuous variable systems.

Phase-field modelling of the effect of density change on solidification revisited: Model development and analytical solutions for single component materials

description: In this paper the development of a physically consistent phase-field theory of solidification shrinkage is presented. The coarse-grained hydrodynamic equations are derived directly from the N-body Hamiltonian equations in the framework of statistical physics, while the constitutive relations are developed in the framework of the standard Phase-field Theory, by following the variational formalism and the principles of non-equilibrium thermodynamics. To enhance the numerical practicality of the model, quasi-incompressible hydrodynamic equations are derived, where sound waves are absent (but density change is still possible), and therefore the time scale of solidification is accessible in numerical simulations. The model development is followed by a comprehensive mathematical analysis of the equilibrium and propagating 1-dimensional solid-liquid interfaces for different density-phase couplings. It is shown, that the fluid flow decelerates/accelerates the solidification front in case of shrinkage/expansion of the solid compared to the case when no density contrast is present between the phases. Furthermore, such a free energy construction is proposed, in which the equilibrium planar phase-field interface is independent from the density-phase coupling, and the equilibrium interface represents an exact propagating planar interface solution of the quasi-incompressible hydrodynamic equations. Our results are in excellent agreement with previous theoretical predictions.

description: Wear are devoting this issue of Agricultural Economics Research to papers delivered at one of the sessions of the recent Chicago meeting of the American Statistical Association, which was jointly sponsored by the American Farm Economic Association. This session, organized partly as a result of suggestions coming from the Bureau, was devoted to a discussion of the recommendations contained in the report on crop estimating and reporting methods made by a Special Subcommittee of the House Committee on Agriculture, which was released last June.In publishing this material, we are expressing neither agreement nor disagreement with the conclusions reached or points raised by any of those who appeared on the program. As a matter of fact, there are several places where I am sure that our statisticians would disagree--for example, the question of how to devise and put better sampling methods into use is certainly important, but we would not, I think, be willing to agree that this is the only or one all-important problem facing the Crop Reporting Board. At the same time we would also argue that some materials which are sometimes considered as forecasts by those outside the Bureau--as for example the March Intentions to Plant materials--are not forecasts in the sense in which that word is ordinarily used. But these matters are beside the point. Here is a series of papers prepared by an able group of speakers, all of whom are outside the Bureau. They do not represent the kind of viewpoints which some well-informed persons outside the Bureau hold, and they are a serious effort to analyze the recommendations of the recent House Subcommittee report on Agricultural Estimates and should, it seems to me, be of interest to practically all professional personnel in the Bureau.

description: We describe a new numerical procedure for generating dense packings of disks and spheres inside various geometric shapes. We believe that in some of the smaller cases, these packings are in fact optimal. When applied to the previously studied cases of packing n equal disks in a square, the procedure confirms all the previous record packings except for n = 32, 37, 48, and 50 disks, where better packings than those previously recorded are found. For n = 32 and 48, the new packings are minor variations of the previous record packings. However, for n = 37 and 50, the new patterns differ substantially. For example, they are mirror-symmetric, while the previous record packings are not.

description: Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are highly energetic radio pulses from cosmological origins. Despite an abundance of detections, their nature remains elusive. At least a subset of FRBs is expected to repeat, as the daily FRB rate surpasses that of any known cataclysmic event, which has been confirmed by observations. One of the proposed mechanisms to generate repeating FRBs is supergiant pulses from young and highly spinning NSs, in which case FRBs could inherit the periodicity of their parent NS. Here we examine the consequences of such a population of periodic fast radio bursts (PFRBs). We calculate the rate and lifetime of PFRB progenitors, and find that each newly born highly spinning NS has to emit a number $N_{\rm PFRB}\sim 10^2$ of bursts during its active lifetime of $τ\sim 100$ years, after which it becomes too dim and crosses a PFRB "death line" analogous to the pulsar one. We propose several tests of this hypothesis. First, the period of PFRBs would increase over time, and their luminosity would decrease, due to the NS spin-down. Second, PFRBs may show modest amounts of rotation measure, given the lack of expelled matter from the pulsar, as opposed to the magnetar-sourced FRBs proposed to explain the first repeater FRB 121102. As an example, we study whether the second confirmed repeater (FRB 180814) is a PFRB, given the preference for an inter-pulse separation of 13 ms within its sub-bursts. We show that, if confirmed, this period would place FRB 180814 in a different category as FRB 121102. We develop tests that would identify---and characterize---the prospective population of PFRBs.

description: A state space model is constructed so that a state variable representing the unobservable state of the economy is estimated from information on new orders, production, employment, supplier delivery time, and finished inventory obtained from the purchasing managers’ sur-vey for Georgia. This state variable captures the co-movements of the time series used in its construction and serves as an economic indicator for Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Caro-lina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. Even though this economic indicator is estimated from information from the purchasing managers’ survey on manufacturing activity for just Geor-gia, it produces reasonable forecasts for the real growth rates of the gross domestic products of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee for 1991 through 2008.
title: Yes, U.S. Farmer Suicide is Significantly Higher than the National Average
Creators: name: Bissen, Sara
Publisher: name: Organisms. Journal of Biological Sciences
Year: 2020

description: This work analyzes the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) 17-state survey and its subsequent errata on U.S. suicide rates. The CDC study, which had generated media interest on U.S. farmer suicide, was retracted following the emergence of a coding error. Although the CDC corrected and republished its survey, inconsistent claims grounded on statistical data misuse suggested that inaccuracies surrounding these data might have relied upon a social bias—eventually debasing the reality of farmer suicide. Such assertions did not leave observations unscathed. Media outlets withdrew their reports, despite further evidence on the U.S. farmer suicide phenomenon. Here, the CDC’s associated federal Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) groups are re-examined alongside a 19-year study on farmer and agricultural worker suicide sourced from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI). Existing data and literature, in fact, indicate that farmers have a significant suicide risk.

description: Preceding the complete suppression of chemical turbulence by means of global feedback, a different universal type of transition, which is characterized by the emergence of small-amplitude collective oscillation with strong turbulent background, is shown to occur at much weaker feedback intensity. We illustrate this fact numerically in combination with a phenomenological argument based on the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation with global feedback.

The Long-Run Relationship among Regional Housing Prices: An Empirical Analysis of the U.S.
Creators: name: Payne, James E.
name: Payne, James E.
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2012
Subjects: Demand and Price Analysis

description: This empirical study tests the ripple effect and the long-run convergence associated with the dynamics of U.S. regional housing prices using the ARDL bounds testing approach and seasonally-adjusted monthly data from 1991:1 to 2010:12 for the nine U.S. census regions. The results support the presence of the ripple effect across regional housing markets and the long-run convergence of regional housing prices. However, the results reveal variation in the degree to which changes in regional housing prices differ across different regions in both the short run and long run. The speed of adjustment toward long-run equilibrium also varies across regions as well.
Should we internalize intertemporal production externalities in the case of pest resistance?

description: Pesticides efficiency decreases with their global application by farmers. Within a strategic dynamic framework, this results in a classic intertemporal production externality. We analyze tax and subsidy schemes that can be used in order to internalize this externality. We show that they are able to restore socially optimal solution at a given period of time but that final time of pesticide use differs. With these schemes, farmers have a tendency to switch to alternative pest-control technology earlier than is optimal. A lump-sum transfer is shown to be necessary to obtain a switching time equal to the socially optimal one, for the subsidy case only. Furthermore, the socially optimal switching time can be later than the one obtained under a situation without control.
OFDM With Hybrid Number and Index Modulation

description: A novel transmission scheme is introduced for efficient data transmission by conveying additional information bits through jointly changing the index and number of active subcarriers within each orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) subblock. The proposed scheme is different from the conventional OFDM-subcarrier number modulation (OFDM-SNM) and OFDM-index modulation (OFDM-IM), in which data bits are transmitted using either number or index of active subcarriers. The proposed modulation technique offers superior spectral and energy efficiency compared to its counterparts OFDM-SNM and OFDM-IM, especially at low modulation orders such as binary phase shift keying (BPSK) that can provide high reliability and low complexity, making it suitable for Internet of Things (IoT) applications that require better spectral and energy efficiency while enjoying high reliability and low complexity. Bit error rate (BER) performance analysis is provided for the proposed scheme, and Monte Carlo simulations are presented to prove the consistency of simulated BER with the analyzed one.

description: We report the results of a deep near-infrared survey with VLT/ISAAC of the environment of the supernova remnant N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud, which contains the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 0526-66. Two of the four confirmed SGRs are potentially associated with compact stellar clusters. We thus searched for a similar association of SGR 0526-66, and imaged a young stellar cluster at a projected distance of ~30 pc from the SGR. This constitutes the third cluster-SGR link, and lends support to scenarios in which SGR progenitors originate in young, dusty clusters. If confirmed, the cluster-SGR association constrains the age and thus the initial mass of SGR progenitors.

description: We examine a Bose-Einstein condensate of atoms that rotates in a quadratic-plus-quartic potential. It is shown that states of different circulation can be metastable. As a result, we demonstrate that the gas can exhibit hysteresis as the angular frequency of rotation of the trap is varied. The simplicity of the picture that emerges for small coupling strengths suggests that this system may be attractive for studies of phase transitions.

description: The objective of this study was to determine resource accessibility and productivity among crop farming women in Borno State, Nigeria. Likert scale was used to describe women’s accessibility to agricultural production resources. The Maximum Likelihood Estimates (MLE) of the stochastic frontier production function (SFPF) was used to estimate the production and technical inefficiency determinants as a measure of productivity of the respondents. Results indicated that respondents had low access to most of the agricultural productivity resources considered in the study. Furthermore, the gamma of 0.7865 was significant at 1%, revealing that over 78% of the variation in the productivity of respondents was attributable to technical inefficiency factors. This underscores the fact that low access to technical efficiency resources contributes immensely to productivity losses among women farmers It was recommended that access to technical efficiency factors including credit, education, extension contact and membership of cooperatives need to be enhanced among women farmers to empower women to effectively access and utilize resources of agricultural productivity.
title: Science as Magic

Year: 2020

description: We draw an analogy between illusionism and scientific research. Based on the conceptual distinction between “external” and “internal life” often used in magic, we discuss how these two worlds also coexist in science, one of them being hardly accessible to both scientists and spectators. The task of the scientist is situated in the context of the spectator of a magic effect, whereas the inner workings of nature are compared to the secret maneuvers of the magician. Such a split and subsequent clash of worlds enables the outcome of the magic trick to produce the so-called “illusion of impossibility”, whose consequences we map to the process of scientific discovery, invention and understanding. We illustrate our proposal with three paradigmatic examples from the scientific and magic literature, and end by discussing the limitations of the analogy and its implications for improving the practice of science.

description: We have studied the steady state and dynamic optical properties of semiconductor microdisk lasers whose active region contains interface fluctuation quantum dots in GaAs/(Ga,Al)As quantum wells. Steady-state measurements of the stimulated emission via whispering gallery modes yield a quality factor $Q \sim 5600$ and a coupling constant $β\sim 0.09$. The broad gain spectrum produces mode hopping between spectrally adjacent whispering gallery modes as a function of temperature and excitation power. Time- and energy-resolved photoluminescence measurements show that the emission rise and decay rates increase significantly with excitation power. Marked differences are observed between the radiative decay rates in processed and unprocessed samples.
