Demand and Price Analysis

description: Online markets are developing rapidly in many industrialized countries and have already reached a rather mature status for some product categories. This, however, is not the case in the food sector. In Germany, the online food market captured still less than 1 % of total food sales in 2014. Despite this small share of the online market, the segment is clearly increasing and major players on the offline grocery market engage themselves on the online market, too, or they plan to do so. It is intended in this paper to contribute to our knowledge on competitive strategies of multichannel suppliers and pure online traders which are active on this growing market segment. A major element of competitive strategies on the online market for foods is pricing. We concentrate on pricing strategies of multichannel firms and pure online traders on the German online market and present evidence for the product group chocolate. More and quicker price information for consumers will become available with the development of online markets. Theory suggests that buyers’ search costs will be lowered and market efficiency will be improved. With lower search costs, it is expected that price dispersion will be reduced, i.e. markets will tend towards the law of one price for identical goods, and that the price level will decline and adjust rapidly. It may, however, happen that online markets induce new search costs for consumers as the variety of products offered will also increase substantially. It is an empirical question whether the level and the dispersion of prices will actually fall as the online supply of foods grows. The increasing empirical evidence on non-food markets indicates that remarkable differences between various suppliers persist with the growing importance of online markets and prices remain relatively rigid over time. Different explanations for these patterns are offered in the literature including a growing importance of product differentiation and non-price strategies on online and offline markets.

description: We explore the way free particles produced by dissociating ``particle-hole pairs'' on a surface-melted cluster can be transferred to a second, nearby surface-melted cluster. This mass transport is based on an inter-cluster direct transfer mechanism of the particles. We found that in this particular case one cluster may grow at the expense of another, obeying a temporal power law with the exponent 1/2 for the average radius R = const t^{1/2}. The change from the expected universal power law R = const t^{1/3} is a consequence of the proximity relation between these two clusters which lead to enhance the effective transport rates.

description: The economic value of meditation based services is clearly demonstrated by a growing number of companies using such services. In the USA one quarter of the companies offer in-house meditation training to their employees. On the other hand, the number of those who think that the western consumption paradigm in its present form is unsustainable is also increasing. In addition to its business value, meditation and its most popular western form mindfulness is a practical tool that can catalyze a change in our world view and value system. A basic precondition for learning meditation techniques is to have an open, receptive, feminine attitude. As it is revealed in the present research, tourists poses a significantly elevated level of openness to new experience. This increased openness together with an upward trend for spiritual experiences can create a synergy for certain destinations, accommodation types, tourism locations to expand their service portfolio with meditation based services. While favourable physical and psychological effects of traditional tourism services fade within a few weeks, meditation is a portable tourism product which can be taken home and practiced regularly in a virtually cost-free way. By learning and practicing meditation the extremely poor physical and psychological condition of the Hungarian population could be improved in a preventive and cost-effective way. As the level of mindfulness is positively correlated with sustainable behaviour by offering meditation services tourism might take on a new level of significance in the battle for sustainability.

description: We consider the problem of learning representations that achieve group and subgroup fairness with respect to multiple sensitive attributes. Taking inspiration from the disentangled representation learning literature, we propose an algorithm for learning compact representations of datasets that are useful for reconstruction and prediction, but are also \emph{flexibly fair}, meaning they can be easily modified at test time to achieve subgroup demographic parity with respect to multiple sensitive attributes and their conjunctions. We show empirically that the resulting encoder---which does not require the sensitive attributes for inference---enables the adaptation of a single representation to a variety of fair classification tasks with new target labels and subgroup definitions.

description:
Solar heating plants operated as drainback systems (DBS) have proven potential for cost reduction and protection against system overheating and freezing. By selecting a lower flow rate in the collector loop, investment and operation costs can be further reduced. However, the impact of low-flow operation on hydraulic and thermal performance and the associated aspects during planning needs better understanding. Therefore, the phenomena of water/air two-phase flow characteristics under different flow conditions, planning and installation issues, improvements for low-flow operation, and associated malfunctions of a DBS with heat pipe evacuated tube collector are investigated. The low-flow operation of DBS with a concentric manifold configuration creates unforeseen problems of flow break and reduced collector performance. The air that penetrates the system and accumulates in the collector manifold creates these problems. The study indicates that, after removing the air, the collector performance outweighs the reduction in performance induced by lowering the specific flow rate from 40.8 l/(h∙m2) to 11.5 l/(h∙m2) for reduced temperature differences above 0.04 K∙m2/W. Concerning the design of the collector manifold, an eccentric reducer with 0.2° inclination performs better than the concentric reducers do at low-flow operation. The air entering the collector loop is well pushed out of the manifold.

description: We propose a new declarative planning language, called K, which is based on principles and methods of logic programming. In this language, transitions between states of knowledge can be described, rather than transitions between completely described states of the world, which makes the language well-suited for planning under incomplete knowledge. Furthermore, it enables the use of default principles in the planning process by supporting negation as failure. Nonetheless, K also supports the representation of transitions between states of the world (i.e., states of complete knowledge) as a special case, which shows that the language is very flexible. As we demonstrate on particular examples, the use of knowledge states may allow for a natural and compact problem representation. We then provide a thorough analysis of the computational complexity of K, and consider different planning problems, including standard planning and secure planning (also known as conformant planning) problems. We show that these problems have different complexities under various restrictions, ranging from NP to NEXPTIME in the propositional case. Our results form the theoretical basis for the DLV^K system, which implements the language K on top of the DLV logic programming system.

description: The elastic modulus $c_{44}$ of a single crystal of the Weyl semimetal TaAs was investigated by measuring relative changes in the sound velocity under application of a magnetic field up to 10 T. Using an ultrasonic pulsed-echo technique, we studied the shear response of the crystal when the angle between the sound wave propagation and the magnetic field is changed. We observe a broken tetragonal symmetry at fields above 6 T, an anisotropy that is likely related to a longitudinal negative magnetoresistance and therefore might provide evidence of the chiral anomaly, one of the main topological signatures of this class of materials. We also observe quantum oscillations in the sound velocity whose frequencies vary with magnetic field orientation. A fan diagram of Landau level indices reveals topological and trivial Berry phases, depending on the field orientation, indicating a sensitivity to different Fermi surface pockets that do or do not enclose Weyl nodes respectively.

description: The recent global food crisis has caused an increase in agricultural market volatility, raising important questions on the determinants of this instability. Many studies have analyzed this issue focusing on main factors affecting price volatility, as past volatility and trends, transmission across prices, oil price volatility, export concentration, stock levels and yields (Balcombe, 2010). Existing empirical literature identifies different drivers of volatility; among them, financialization and speculation are by far one of the most important. Indeed, with the introduction of agricultural commodity as an alternative asset class in investment portfolios, and the consequent increasing integration between commodity markets and major financial markets, there has been a growing convergence of risk-adjusted returns on assets class across markets, and an increase in the risk of volatility spillovers from outside to commodity markets due to portfolio rebalancing of institutional investors (Adams and Gluck, 2015). Since the beginning of the new millennium, in fact, there has been a steady flows of financial investments in commodities. As reported by Irwin and Sanders (2011), commodity investments have grown between 2003 and 2009 from 15 billion to 250 billions of dollars. Investments in these markets is made through different financial instruments, driven by different motivations: in futures, both for hedging and speculative purposes, and also in commodity index funds and hedge funds, mainly for portfolio diversification purposes. Increase in investing in the latter two types of investments, however, has been much stronger, compared to the past (Cheng et al. 2014). This process of massive increase in investments in commodities through financial instruments, knows as “commodity finanziarization”, has generated a gradual integration between commodities market and financial markets which, in turn, has risen spillover volatility between markets due to investors’ rebalancing of portfolio’s asset classes.
Optimizing Completely Positive Maps using Semidefinite Programming

description: Recently, a lot of attention has been devoted to finding physically realisable operations that realise as closely as possible certain desired transformations between quantum states, e.g. quantum cloning, teleportation, quantum gates, etc. Mathematically, this problem boils down to finding a completely positive trace-preserving (CPTP) linear map that maximizes the (mean) fidelity between the map itself and the desired transformation. In this note we want to draw attention to the fact that this problem belongs to the class of so-called semidefinite programming (SDP) problems. As SDP problems are convex, it immediately follows that they do not suffer from local optima. Furthermore, this implies that the numerical optimization of the CPTP map can, and should, be done using methods from the well-established SDP field, as these methods exploit convexity and are guaranteed to converge to the real solution. Finally, we show how the duality inherent to convex and SDP problems can be exploited to prove analytically the optimality of a proposed solution. We give an example of how to apply this proof method by proving the optimality of Hardy and Song's proposed solution for the universal qubit $θ$-shifter (quant-ph/0102100).

description: The brain as a neuronal system has very complex structure with large diversity of neuronal types. The most basic complexity is seen from the structure of neuronal morphology, which usually has a complex tree-like structure with dendritic spines distributed in branches. For simulating a large-scale network with spiking neurons, the simple point neuron, such as integrate-and-fire neuron, is often used. However, recent experimental evidence suggests that the computational ability of a single neuron is largely enhanced by its morphological structure, in particular, by various types of dendritic dynamics. As morphology reduction of detailed biophysical models is one of classic questions for systems neuroscience, much effort has been taken to simulate a neuron with a few compartments to include the interaction between soma and dendritic spines. Yet, novel reduction methods are still needed to deal with complex dendritic tree. Here by using ten individual Purkinje cells of the cerebellum from three species of guinea-pig, mouse and rat, we consider four types of reduction methods and study their effects on the coding capacity of Purkinje cells in terms of firing rate, timing coding, spiking pattern, and modulated firing under different stimulation protocols. We find that there is a variation of reduction performance depending on individual cells and species, however, all reduction methods can preserve, to some degree, firing activity of the full model of Purkinje cell. Therefore, when stimulating large-scale network of neurons, one has to choose a proper type of reduced neuronal model depending on the questions addressed.

description: Gymnospermium is a small genus of 7–12 taxa subject to diverging taxonomic treatments and distributed from east China to the Balkans. The recent discovery of Gymnospermium in the S-Apennines posed questions about origin and identity. Accordingly, we performed a systematic investigation by means of morphological, karyological and molecular tools. All populations were diploid with 2n = 14 as for the Balkan G. scipetarum (incl. G. maloi), and also morphology suggested a close affinity to the latter. However, the Italian populations differed from typical G. scipetarum by the lower stamen:petal length and style:carpel length. By including all European and most Asian taxa in a phylogenetic analysis, we shed new light into the species-level relationships in this genus. In the combined ITS-trnL-F phylogeny, two major clades were retrieved. One included the central Asian and eastern European taxa plus the Greek endemic G. peloponnesiacum sister to G. odessanum, and one the Balkan and Apennine populations. Such findings further corroborated that the Apennine plant belong to G. scipetarum. The native status of the Italian population is supported by exclusive SNPs in both ITS1 and trnL-F sequences. Along with morphological evidence, this allows to refer it to the new subspecies G. scipetarum subsp. eddae.

description: First-generation (Population III) stars in the universe play an important role inearly enrichment of heavy elements in galaxies and intergalactic medium and thus affect the history of galaxies. The physical and chemical properties of primordial gas clouds are significantly different from those of present-day gas clouds observed in the nearby universe because the primordial gas clouds do not contain any heavy elements which are important coolants in the gas. Previous theoretical considerations have suggested that typical masses of the first-generation stars are between several $M_\odot$ and $\approx 10 M_\odot$ although it has been argued that the formation of very massive stars (e.g., $> 100 M_\odot$) is also likely. If stars with several $M_\odot$ are most popular ones at the epoch of galaxy formation, most stars will evolve to hot (e.g., $\gtrsim 10^5$ K), luminous ($\sim 10^4 L_\odot$) stars with gaseous and dusty envelope prior to going to die as white dwarf stars. Although the duration of this phase is short (e.g., $\sim 10^5$ yr), such evolved stars could contribute both to the ionization of gas in galaxies and to the production of a lot of dust grains if the formation of intermediate-mass stars is highly enhanced. We compare gaseous emission-line properties of such nebulae with some interesting high-redshift galaxies such asIRAS F10214+4724 and powerful radio galaxies.

description: This critical, arts-based research project examines representations of family in public and scholarly discourse, with particular focus on the continued dominance of traditional family forms as the normative ideal. Informed from a personal standpoint-that of being the only bastard child of a single mother-the aim of this research is to collect, reframe, and represent the rhetoric surrounding family in a manner that reveals its structures and challenges its power. A feminist critique of family studies is outlined, drawing on the work of a diverse range of scholars who posit that the constructed images and ideals of family reveal dominant power structures; act as hierarchical ordering devices; and discourage multiplicity and nuance. The tangled history of photography and the nuclear family is discussed as both a force of social change and the origin of aesthetic conventions that still model how the family is represented. The practices of exemplar contemporary artists are analysed to contextualise the creative work produced over the course of this research within an exegetical summary. This research will also be articulated as an exhibition intending to reach beyond the limited audience of conventional family studies scholarship. The specific methods and practices employed in the creation of the exhibited work merge photographic theory and practice; text and image; use of the archive; and installation. The final body of work deconstructs the symbol of The Family and calls attention to the various mechanisms of power associated with this construction.

description: The possibility of accelerating molecular reactions by lasers has attracted considerable theoretical and experimental interest. A particular example of laser-modified reaction dynamics is laser catalysis, a process in which the tunneling through a potential barrier is enhanced by transient excitation to a bound electronic state. We have performed detailed calculations of pulsed laser catalysis on one- and two-dimensional potentials, as a function of the reactants' collision energy and the laser's central frequency. In agreement with previous CW results, the reactive lineshapes are Fano-type curves, resulting from interference between nonradiative tunneling and the optically assisted pathway. In contrast to the CW process, the power requirements of pulsed laser catalysis are well within the reach of commonly used pulsed laser sources, making an experimental realization possible. The laser catalysis scenario is shown to be equivalent in the ``dressed'' state picture, to resonant tunneling through a double-barrier potential, admitting perfect transmission when the incident energy matches a quasibound state of the well within the barriers. Possible applications for atom optics, solid-state devices, and scanning tunneling microscopy, are discussed.

Reasoning by analogy with the physics of surface electrons in liquid helium, we demonstrate that the decay of Rabi oscillations observed in experiments on 9Be+ can be attributed to the polarization phenomena investigated here. The measured sensitivity of the damping of Rabi oscillations with respect to the vibrational quantum number of a trapped ion is also predicted in our polarization model.

description: Sparse Code Multiple Access (SCMA) has been recently proposed for the future generation of wireless communication standards. SCMA system design involves specifying several parameters. In order to simplify the procedure, most works consider a multistage design approach. Two main stages are usually emphasized in these methods: sparse signatures design (equivalently, resource allocation) and codebook design. In this paper, we present a novel SCMA codebook design method. The proposed method considers SCMA codebooks structured with an underlying vector space obtained from classical block codes. In particular, when using maximum distance separable (MDS) codes, our proposed design provides maximum signal-space diversity with a relatively small alphabet. The use of small alphabets also helps to maintain desired properties in the codebooks, such as low peak-to-average power ratio and low-complexity detection.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Sustainable agriculture means viable economical technologies, on a long period. Within this context, it attends to maintain and improve the physic environment, the resistance at external pressures, to gratify the population demand for food, to ensure for agricultural producers economic and social welfare. In the crop production, combining rationally and scientific the species, we can contribute to the improvement of those deteriorate areas by various factors. The real agriculture development involves a cautious administration of resources and environment.
An axiomatic measure of one-way quantum information

description: I introduce an algorithm to detect one-way quantum information between two interacting quantum systems, i.e. the direction and orientation of the information transfer in arbitrary quantum dynamics. I then build an information-theoretic quantifier of one-way information which satisfies a set of desirable axioms. In particular, it correctly evaluates whether correlation implies one-way quantum information, and when the latter is transferred between uncorrelated systems. In the classical scenario, the quantity measures information transfer between random variables. I also generalize the method to identify and rank concurrent sources of quantum information flow in many-body dynamics, enabling to reconstruct causal patterns in complex networks.

The Degree of CO Depletion in Pre-stellar Cores

description: We present new results on CO depletion in a sample of nearby pre-stellar cores, based on observations of the millimeter C17O and C18O lines and the 1.3 mm dust emission with the IRAM 30m telescope. In most cases, the distribution of CO is much flatter than that of the dust, whereas other tracers, like N2H+, still probe the latter. In the centre of these objects, we estimate CO to be underabundant by a factor 4-15 depending on the cores. The CO underabundance is more pronounced in the central regions and appears to decrease with increasing distance from the core centre. This underabundance is most likely due to the freezing out of CO onto the dust grains in the cold, dense parts of the cores. We find evidence for an increase of the CO depletion degree with the core density.

description: Authors are considering problem of investments on the macro level e.g. on the level of Republic of Serbia in a ten-year period (1996-2005). Investments and capital coefficient in industry and agriculture are analised, in other words the ratio between the investments and public production. Structure of investments by domains of investments and public production has been presented. Official annual data have been statistically processed. The period in matter has been devided into two sub-periods: 1996-2000 and 2001-2005. The first period is significantly different from the second one, although both of the have common characteristic: disproportion in terms of taking from the agriculture and investing into this kind of production
FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTS IN ROMANIA BEFORE EU ACCESSION

description: In a world of globalization, the capital plays a very important role and will conduct our life with a deeper influence, in the next years. Among different forms of investments, foreign capital and foreign direct investments (FDI) seem to be the most dynamic and advantageous for sides, investors and receivers. For many years, Romania did not have a good image on the international market, in the eyes of the investors and played an unsignificant role in the “FDI World Equation” at the regional level (about 6% from regional FDI). For the foreign investors, the general climate of the economy was not the best in attracting strategic investments and that was the main barrier against economic development. During the transition period, in Romania have developed different concepts concerning investment policy and the role of the foreign capital in the future economic stability, in pre-accession period and after the accession into European Union (EU). Unfortunately, the present economic state still suffers of the lack of poise because, our decision-makers showed us a totally lack of consistency with grave negative effects on the next decision steps, as we will see in this study.

description: In this paper we pursue a new technique to search for evidence of a finite Universe, making use of a spherical mexican-hat wavelet decomposition of the microwave background fluctuations. Using the information provided by the wavelet coefficients at several scales we test whether compact orientable flat topologies are consistent with the COBE-DMR data. We consider topological sizes ranging from half to twice the horizon size. A scale-scale correlation test indicates that non-trivial topologies with appropriate topological sizes are as consistent with the COBE-DMR data as an infinite universe. Among the finite models the data seems to prefer a Universe which is about the size of the horizon for all but the hypertorus and the triple-twist torus. For the latter the wavelet technique does not seem a good discriminator of scales for the range of topological sizes considered here, while a hypertorus has a preferred size which is 80% of the horizon. This analysis allows us to find a best fit topological size for each model, although cosmic variance might limit our ability to distinguish some of the topologies.

On the question of secret probability distributions in quantum bit commitment

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The proof of the No-Go Theorem of unconditionally secure quantum bit commitment depends on the assumption that Alice knows every detail of the protocol, including the probability distributions associated with all the random variables generated by Bob. We argue that this condition may not be universally satisfied. In fact it can be shown that when Bob is allowed to use a secret probability distribution, the joint quantum state is inevitably mixed. It is then natural to ask if Alice can still cheat. A positive answer has been given by us [13] for the perfect concealing case. In this paper, we present a simplified proof of our previous result, and extend it to cover the imperfect concealing case as well.
