description: For a partially ordered set P, let Co(P) denote the lattice of all order-convex subsets of P. For a positive integer n, we denote by SUB(LO) (resp., SUB(n)) the class of all lattices that can be embedded into a product of lattices of convex subsets of chains (resp., chains with at most n elements). We prove the following results: (1) Both classes SUB(LO) and SUB(n), for any positive integer n, are locally ﬁnite, ﬁnitely based varieties of lattices, and we ﬁnd ﬁnite equational bases of these varieties. (2) The variety SUB(LO) is the quasivariety join of all the varieties SUB(n), for 1 ≤ n < ω, and it has only countably many subvarieties. We classify these varieties, together with all the ﬁnite subdirectly irreducible members of SUB(LO). (3) Every ﬁnite subdirectly irreducible member of SUB(LO) is projective within SUB(LO), and every subquasivariety of SUB(LO) is a variety.

description: We study superfluid states in a two-dimensional fermionic attractive Hubbard model with Zeeman coupling to an external field. Focusing our attention on singlet pairing in both weak and strong coupling regimes, we reveal a rich phase diagram of finite momentum condensates which exhibits both Fulde-Ferrell and Larkin-Ovchinnikov orders at zero temperature. The latter are commensurate stripe states that spontaneously break a lattice symmetry; many stable ordering wavevectors are found as a function of particle density and Zeeman field. Stronger coupling significantly enhances the stability of the finite momentum condensates, but our numerical mean-field calculations underestimate the effect of fluctuations and indicate a possible localization near half-filling.

description: It is well-known that every multicritical circle map without periodic orbits admits a unique invariant Borel probability measure which is purely singular with respect to Lebesgue measure. Can such a map leave invariant an infinite, $σ$-finite invariant measure which is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure? In this paper, using an old criterion due to Katznelson, we show that the answer to this question is no.

description: Swift discovered GRB050128 with the Burst Alert Telescope and promptly pointed its narrow field instruments to monitor the afterglow. X-ray observations started 108 s after the trigger time. The early decay of the afterglow is relatively flat with a temporal decay modeled with a power law with index ~ -0.3. A steepening occurs at later times (~ 1500 s) with a power law index of ~ -1.3. During this transition, the observed X-ray spectrum does not change. We interpret this behaviour as either an early jet break or evidence for a transition from the fast cooling regime to the slow cooling regime in a wind environment.

description: This paper examines the causes of Taiwan's exceptional economic performance, focusing on the influence of organizational and policy choices and how Taiwan's example differs from those of more typical less-developed countries. After briefly citing cultural factors as proposed by his late colleague John Fei, Ranis proceeds to explore the issues of organic nationalism, natural resource endowment, access to foreign capital and other political factors that have produced such economic success. The author demonstrates how Taiwan's unique combination of strong organic nationalism, meager natural resources and limited access to foreign capital helped curb the Extended Dutch Disease phenomenon endemic in LDCs. In addition, the government's nonoscillatory, relatively laissez-faire fiscal and monetary policies, encouragement of technological innovation, plus generous educational, R&D and infrastructural expenditures have contributed to low rates of inflation and high rates of GDP growth. The paper finally suggests a positive correlation between democracy and economic development.
Simple patterns for non-linear susceptibilities near T_c

description: Non-linear susceptibilities upto the eighth order have been constructed in QCD with 2 flavours of dynamical quarks. Beyond leading order, they exhibit peaks at the cross over temperature, T_c. By analyzing their behaviour in detail, we find that the dominant contributions near T_c come from a set of operators with a remarkably simple topology. Any effective theory of QCD near T_c must be able to explain these regularities.

description: We compute the master integrals for two-loop QCD corrections to quasi parton distribution functions (PDFs) in large momentum effective theory. Analytical results of the master integrals are derived using the method of differential equations, along with a proper choice of canonical basis. The results of master integrals are expressed in terms of Goncharov polylogarithms. These integrals allow to extract the two-loop short-distance matching coefficients between quasi and light cone PDFs in large momentum effective theory, and are helpful to extract the nucleon PDFs from first principles.

description: What is the relation between infrequent price adjustment and the dynamic response of the aggregate price level to monetary shocks? The answer to this question ranges from a one-to-one link (Calvo, 1983) to no connection whatsoever (Caplin and Spulber, 1987). The purpose of this paper is to provide a unified framework to understand the mechanisms behind this wide range of results. In doing so, we propose new interpretations of key results in this area, which in turn suggest the kind of Ss model that is likely to generate substantial price rigidity. The first result we revisit is Caplin and Spulber's monetary neutrality model. We show that when price stickiness is measured in terms of the impulse response function, this result is not a consequence of aggregation, but is due instead to the absence of price-stickiness at the microeconomic level. We also show that the "selection effect," according to which units that adjust their prices are those that benefit the most, is neither necessary nor sufficient to account for the higher aggregate flexibility of Ss-type models compared to Calvo models. Instead, the key concept is the contribution of the extensive margin of adjustment to the aggregate price response. The aggregate price level is more flexible than suggested by the microeconomic frequency of adjustment if and only if this term is positive.

description: This paper uses data from Matlab, Bangladesh to examine the characteristics of female-headed households and estimate the impact of female-headship on children's schooling. Female householdheads in Matlab fall into two broad groups: widows and married women, most of whom are wives of migrants. These women differ from each other not only in their current socio-economic circumstances, but also in their backgrounds and circumstances prior to getting married. To identify the effects of female-headship on children's outcomes, I use a two-stage least squares strategy that controls for the possible endogeneity of both types of female-headship. Results indicate that children residing in households headed by married women have stronger schooling attainments than children in other households, while children of widows are more likely to work outside the home. The hypothesis of exogeneity of female-headship is rejected in most cases.

description: We analyze the entanglement entropy, in real space, for the higher dimensional integer quantum Hall effect on ${\mathbb {CP}}^k$ (any even dimension) for abelian and nonabelian magnetic background fields. In the case of $ν=1$ we perform a semiclassical calculation which gives the entropy as proportional to the phase-space area. This exhibits a certain universality in the sense that the proportionality constant is the same for any dimension and for any background, abelian or nonabelian. We also point out some distinct features in the profiles of the eigenfunctions of the two-point correlator that underline the difference in the value of entropies between $ν=1$ and higher Landau levels.

description: The Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition technique is widely used to identify and quantify the separate contributions of group differences in measurable characteristics, such as education, experience, marital status, and geographical differences to racial and gender gaps in outcomes. The technique cannot be used directly, however, if the outcome is binary and the coefficients are from a logit or probit model. I describe a relatively simple method of performing a decomposition that uses estimates from a logit or probit model. Expanding on the original application of the technique in Fairlie (1999), I provide a more thorough discussion of how to apply the technique, an analysis of the sensitivity of the decomposition estimates to different parameters, and the calculation of standard errors.

description: Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo have recently published the upper limit measurement of persistent directional stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) based on data from their first and second observing runs (O1 and O2). In this paper we investigate whether a correlation exists between this maximal likelihood SGWB map and the electromagnetic tracers of matter structure in the universe, such as galaxy number counts. The method we develop will improve the sensitivity of future searches for anisotropy in the SGWB and expand the use of SGWB anisotropy to probe the formation of structure in the universe. In order to compute the cross-correlation, we used the spherical harmonic decomposition of SGWB in multiple frequency bands and converted them into pixel-based sky maps in HEALPix basis. For the electromagnetic (EM) part, we use the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxy catalog and form HEALPix sky maps of galaxy number counts at the same angular resolution as the SGWB maps. We compute the pixel-based coherence between these SGWB and galaxy count maps. After evaluating our results in different SGWB frequency bands and in different galaxy redshift bins, we conclude that the coherence between the SGWB and galaxy number count maps is dominated by the null measurement noise in the SGWB maps, and therefore not statistically significant. We expect the results of this analysis to be significantly improved by using the more sensitive upcoming SGWB measurements based on the third observing run (O3) of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo.

description: A new pyramidal structural defect, 5 to 8 micron wide, has been discovered in thin films of epitaxial erbium disilicide formed by annealing thin Er films on Si(001) substrates at temperatures of 500 to 800C. Since these defects form even upon annealing in vacuum of TiN-capped films their formation is not due to oxidation. The pyramidal defects are absent when the erbium disilicide forms on amorphous substrates, which suggests that epitaxial strains play an important role in their formation. We propose that these defects form as a result of the separation of the silicide film from the substrate and its buckling in order to relieve the compressive, biaxial epitaxial stresses. Silicon can then diffuse through the silicide or along the interface to fully or partially fill the void between the buckled erbium disilicide film and the substrate.

description: This paper uses household data from India to examine the economic and social status of village politicians, and how individual and village characteristics affect politician behavior while in office. Education increases the chances of selection to public office and reduces the odds that a politician uses political power opportunistically. In contrast, land ownership and political connections enable selection but do not affect politician opportunism. At the village level, changes in the identity of the politically dominant group alters the group allocation of resources but not politician opportunism. Improved information flows in the village, however, reduce opportunism and improve resource allocation.
Enhancing the explanatory power of intelligent, model-based interfaces
Creators: name: Nakatsu, Robbie T.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis considers intelligent, model-based systems and the system design choices that will result in enhanced explanatory power (i.e., more transparency and flexibility in the system). Intelligent systems provide advice to the end-user to assist in decision-making and problem-solving and model-based interfaces make use of a graphical representation of a model, which an end-user is free to interact with and explore to better understand the system's advice. Having a model-based interface is believed to facilitate the development of an appropriate mental model of the system, so that a user can become a more proficient problem-solver when interacting with an intelligent system. A primary objective of this dissertation is to offer empirically-based guidelines on how specific enhancements to explanatory power will improve system effectiveness. Two separate experiments were conducted to explore explanatory power by manipulating its three components: 1) content-based enhancements, 2) interface-based enhancements, and 3) the selection of an appropriate advisory strategy. Experiment I explored whether providing end-users with graphical-based hierarchies representing the structure of expert system rule-bases (interface-based enhancement) as well as with deep explanations, or underlying domain principles explaining system actions (content-based enhancement), actually improved problem-solving ability. Experiment II was an investigation that demonstrated how manipulations of advisory strategy affected explanatory power. For this experiment, two versions of an intelligent system were created: a high-restrictive system, in which the system prescribed for the end-user the order and manner in which the procedures of an intelligent system were to be used; and a low-restrictive system, in which the end-user was free to use an intelligent system's procedures in any sequence and in any manner he/she chose. Multiple methods of measurements were employed to understand the effects of different treatments in the study. Problem-solving performance, as assessed by a series of tasks, and execution time were the main dependent variables of interest. Questionnaires and essay questions were administered to all subjects to gain a deeper understanding of user preferences. Finally, to gain a richer understanding of the problem-solving process, all of the subjects' actions were captured in a computer log, so that problem-solving strategies could be reconstructed and analyzed.

description: Using information contained in a nationally representative, longitudinal survey of Russian citizens, this research analyzes the determinants of unemployment duration during the early stages of economic transition. A competing-risks, discrete-time waiting model, augmented to incorporate unobserved heterogeneity, is employed to analyze whether there is evidence of duration dependence in unemployment, and the role of demographic characteristics, alternative income support, and local demand conditions in explaining unemployment duration for workingage individuals. Married women are found to experience significantly longer unemployment spells before exiting to a job compared to married men. Older individuals can expect to be unemployed longer than comparable younger workers. Persons with higher education do not have significantly longer unemployment spells than those with secondary or even primary education. Having children has no effect on the duration of unemployment, however they do appear to motivate women to drop out of the labor force, significantly decreasing the time spent searching for work. Local labor market demand conditions have a significant effect on duration. Individuals in regions with higher unemployment rates, all else equal, have longer unemployment spells. With respect to the reason for the entering unemployment, persons laid off from their last job have shorter durations relative to quitters. Finally, there is evidence of duration dependence in the re-employment hazard in Russia, with a period of positive duration dependence in the first 7 months, followed by a declining hazard until approximately eighteen months. These results are robust to the introduction of unobserved heterogeneity.

description: For a positive integer n, we denote by SUB (resp., SUBn) the class of all lattices that can be embedded into the lattice Co(P) of all order-convex subsets of a partially ordered set P (resp., P of length at most n). We prove the following results: (1) SUBn is a finitely based variety, for any n ≥ 1. (2) SUB2 is locally finite. (3) A finite atomistic lattice L without D-cycles belongs to SUB iff it belongs to SUB2; this result does not extend to the nonatomistic case. (4) SUBn is not locally finite for n ≥ 3.

description: Cet article consiste à expliquer l’incidence des AGR (Activités Génératrices de Revenus) sur la vie des ménages. Cette recherche se donne alors pour objectif de mesurer l’effet des activités génératrices de revues sur l’autonomisation économique des membres des groupements féminins. Elle s’appuie sur un cas particulier, à savoir le rôle des AGR dans l’autonomisation économiques des femmes et son impact dans la vie des ménages. La méthodologie utilisée pour la présente recherche est la méthode descriptive qui se base sur une analyse statistique à travers des graphiques, des tableaux croisés. Les données ont été collectées auprès de 100 femmes membres de divers groupements féminins du district de Bamako. Les logiciels Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) la version 20 et le R (4.2.1) ont été utilisées pour analyser les données. Nos résultats indiquent que les AGR ont un effet positif sur l’autonomisation économique des femmes. Ainsi l’accès des femmes aux AGR leurs permettent de contribuer aux charges du ménage, d’améliorer leurs conditions de vie, d’accroitre leurs possibilités d’épargne, de faciliter leurs participations aux prises de décisions de la famille et événements sociaux.

description: I evaluate India's transition from an inward-oriented development strategy to greater participation in the world economy. While tariff rates have decreased significantly over the past decade, India is still one of the more autarkic countries. Despite improvement over the past in export performance, India continues to lag behind its South- and East Asian neighbors. Second, official debt flows have been largely replaced by foreign direct investment (FDI) and portfolio investment in the 1990s. India's ability to attract FDI would be greatly enhanced by further reforms. I argue that India's participation in a future round of multilateral trade negotiations would benefit India. I outline the further reforms most needed: reform of labour and bankruptcy laws, real privatization, and fiscal consolidation. These involve taking on entrenched vested interests, including political parties and governments in states. Enacting them requires political courage and risk taking which in India, as in most societies, are rare.

description: Most of existing embedding based recommendation models use embeddings (vectors) corresponding to a single fixed point in low-dimensional space, to represent users and items. Such embeddings fail to precisely represent the users/items with uncertainty often observed in recommender systems. Addressing this problem, we propose a unified deep recommendation framework employing Gaussian embeddings, which are proven adaptive to uncertain preferences exhibited by some users, resulting in better user representations and recommendation performance. Furthermore, our framework adopts Monte-Carlo sampling and convolutional neural networks to compute the correlation between the objective user and the candidate item, based on which precise recommendations are achieved. Our extensive experiments on two benchmark datasets not only justify that our proposed Gaussian embeddings capture the uncertainty of users very well, but also demonstrate its superior performance over the state-of-the-art recommendation models.
The Local Effects of Cosmological Variations in Physical 'Constants' and Scalar Fields I. Spherically Symmetric Spacetimes

description: We apply the method of matched asymptotic expansions to analyse whether cosmological variations in physical `constants' and scalar fields are detectable, locally, on the surface of local gravitationally bound systems such as planets and stars, or inside virialised systems like galaxies and clusters. We assume spherical symmetry and derive a sufficient condition for the local time variation of the scalar fields that drive varying constants to track the cosmological one. We calculate a number of specific examples in detail by matching the Schwarzschild spacetime to spherically symmetric inhomogeneous Tolman-Bondi metrics in an intermediate region by rigorously construction matched asymptotic expansions on cosmological and local astronomical scales which overlap in an intermediate domain. We conclude that, independent of the details of the scalar-field theory describing the varying `constant', the condition for cosmological variations to be measured locally is almost always satisfied in physically realistic situations. The proof of this statement provides a rigorous justification for using terrestrial experiments and solar system observations to constrain or detect any cosmological time variations in the traditional `constants' of Nature.

Using Experimental Economics to Measure Social Capital and Predict Financial Decisions

description: Questions remain as to whether results from experimental economics games are generalizable to real decisions in non-laboratory settings. Furthermore, important questions persist about whether social capital can help solve seemingly missing credit markets. I conduct two experiments, a Trust game and a Public Goods game, and a survey to measure social capital. I then examine whether behavior in the games predicts repayment of loans to a Peruvian group lending microfinance program. Since the structure of these loans relies heavily on social capital to enforce repayment, this is a relevant and important test of the games, as well as of other measures of social capital. I find that individuals identified as "trustworthy" by the Trust game are in fact less likely to default on their loans. I do not find similar support for the Trust game as a measure of trust.

Does the Liberalization of Trade Advance Gender Equality in Schooling and Health?

description: This paper assesses the empirical relationship between the liberalization of international trade and the economic status of women. Although historically globalization is not generally linked to the advancement of women, several recent country studies find export led growth in middle and low income countries is associated with improvements in women's employment opportunities. Does intercountry empirical evidence confirm this association across a wider range of countries, and suggest the mechanisms by which it operates? Measures of wages for men and women are an unreliable basis for study of gender inequality in many low-income countries, and thus schooling and health are analyzed here as indicators of productivity and welfare and gender gaps. For a sample of 70 countries observed at five year intervals from 1965 to 1980, tariff, quota, and foreign exchange restrictions are found to be inversely associated with trade, and with the levels of education and health, especially for women. Natural resource exports, although providing foreign exchange for imports, appear to reduce investments in schooling and health, and delay the equalization of these human capital investments between men and women. Liberalization of trade policy is consequently linked in the cross section to increased trade, to greater accumulation of human capital, and to increased gender equality.

description: Aims: Flip-flops are top-hat-like X-ray flux variations which occur in some transient accreting black hole binary systems and feature simultaneous changes in the spectral hardness and the Power Density Spectrum (PDS). They occur at a crucial time in the evolution of these systems, when the accretion disk emission starts to dominate over coronal emission. Flip-flops have only rarely been observed and are poorly understood. Methods: We detect 15 flip-flops in the 2018 outburst of Swift J1658.2-4242, in observations by XMM-Newton, NuSTAR, Astrosat, Swift, Insight-HXMT, INTEGRAL, and ATCA. We analyse their light curves, search for periodicities, compute their PDS, and fit their X-ray spectra, to investigate the source behaviour during flip-flop transitions, and how the interval featuring flip-flops differs from the rest of the outburst. Results: The flip-flops of Swift J1658.2-4242 are of an extreme variety, exhibiting flux differences of up to 77% within ~100s, much larger than has been seen so far. We observe radical changes in the PDS simultaneous with the sharp flux variations, featuring transitions between the Quasi-Periodic Oscillation types C and A, which have never been observed before. Changes to the PDS are delayed, but more rapid than changes in the light curve. Flip-flops occur in two intervals, separated by two weeks in which these phenomena were not seen. Transitions between the two flip-flop states occurred at random integer multiples of a fundamental period, of 2.761ks in the first interval, and 2.61ks in the second. Spectral analysis reveals the high and low flux flip-flop states to be similar, but distinct from intervals lacking flip-flops. A change in the inner temperature of the accretion disk is responsible for most of the flux difference in the flip-flops. We highlight the importance of correcting for the influence of the dust scattering halo on the X-ray spectra.
