description: In the mean-field regime, the evolution of a gas of $N$ interacting particles is governed in first approximation by a Vlasov type equation with a self-induced force field. This equation is conservative and describes return to equilibrium only in the very weak sense of Landau damping. However, the first correction to this approximation is given by the Lenard-Balescu operator, which dissipates entropy on the very long timescale $O(N)$. In this paper, we show how one can derive rigorously this correction on intermediate timescales (of order $O(N^r)$ for $r<1$), close to equilibrium.

description: A possibility of the uniform antiferromagnetic order is pointed out in an S=1/2 ferromagnetic (F) - antiferromagnetic (AF) random alternating Heisenberg quantum spin chain compound: (CH_3)_2 CHNH_3 Cu(Cl_x Br_{1-x})_3. The system possesses the bond alternation of strong random bonds that take +/- 2J and weak uniform AF bonds of -J. In the pure concentration limits, the model reduces to the AF-AF alternation chain at x=0 and to the F-AF alternation chain at x=1. The nonequilibrium relaxation of large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations exhibits critical behaviors of the uniform AF order in the intermediate concentration region, which explains the experimental observation of the magnetic phase transition. The present results suggest that the uniform AF order may survive even in the presence of the randomly located ferromagnetic bonds.

description: The New York State food industry is one of the most diverse and dynamic state-wide industries in the country. Increasing manufacturer consolidation along with intensifying competition has created a dramatic need for more and better information regarding both current operations and anticipated trends in the food industry. This report is the first in a series of annual studies which examines the nature of the food industry in New York State, with a particular focus at the retail level. The research approach for this study consisted of gathering information and operating data from a variety of government and industry sources and included an in-depth questionnaire sent to every wholesale and retail company operating in N~w York State. Until now, such comprehensive and interrelated information has never been assembled in one place. The picture that emerges from this study is that of an industry which is vibrant and dynamic. New York State supermarkets lead the nation in a number of key productivity measures, while at the same time lagging behind in a number of indicators relating to technology adoption and innovation. Reflecting New York's great ethnic and cultural diversity, the report points sharply to the significant degrees to which the State's retail food companies have responded to this unique challenge. New Yark State supermarkets, for example, carry nearly 50 percent more products than their counterparts in the rest of the United States in similar size stores. While the report quantifies many aspects of the New York State food system, it also raises a number of questions and challenges. Our objective in future studies is to further examine the benchmarks established here, explore new food industry issues, and continue to provide food industry professionals with timely information on the changing conditions of this dynamic industry.

description: This paper analyses the choice of a farmer to be an innovator, an early adopter or a laggard (an adopter of mature technologies or a non-adopter) in the adoption of innovations that are available on the market. We estimate a nested logit model with data from a large sample of Dutch farmers. We find that structural characteristics (farm size, market position, solvency, age of the farmer) explain the difference in adoption behaviour between innovators and early adopters on the one hand and laggards on the other. We also find that early adopters and innovators do not differ from each other regarding these structural characteristics. However, they appear to differ in behavioural characteristics : innovators make more use of external sources of information and they are more involved in the actual development of innovations.

description: Multicore processors constitute the main architecture choice for modern computing systems in different market segments. Despite their benefits, the contention that naturally appears when multiple applications compete for the use of shared resources among cores, such as the last-level cache (LLC), may lead to substantial performance degradation. This may have a negative impact on key system aspects such as throughput and fairness. Assigning the various applications in the workload to separate LLC partitions with possibly different sizes, has been proven effective to mitigate shared-resource contention effects.
 In this article we propose LFOC, a clustering-based cache partitioning scheme that strives to deliver fairness while providing acceptable system throughput. LFOC leverages the Intel Cache Allocation Technology (CAT), which enables the system software to divide the LLC into different partitions. To accomplish its goals, LFOC tries to mimic the behavior of the optimal cache-clustering solution, which we could approximate by means of a simulator in different scenarios. To this end, LFOC effectively identifies streaming aggressor programs and cache sensitive applications, which are then assigned to separate cache partitions.
 We implemented LFOC in the Linux kernel and evaluated it on a real system featuring an Intel Skylake processor, where we compare its effectiveness to that of two state-of-the-art policies that optimize fairness and throughput, respectively. Our experimental analysis reveals that LFOC is able to bring a higher reduction in unfairness by leveraging a lightweight algorithm suitable for adoption in a real OS.

description: We show that the modern quantum mechanics, and particularly the theory of decoherence, allows formulating a sort of a physical metatheory of consciousness. Particularly, the analysis of the necessary conditions for the occurrence of decoherence, along with the hypothesis that consciousness bears (more-or-less) well definable physical origin, leads to a wider physical picture naturally involving consciousness. This can be considered as a sort of a psycho-physical parallelism, but on very wide scales bearing some cosmological relevance.

They permit to study linear transport in presence of low dimensional leads in the whole range of parameters. In particular contact effects can be addressed in detail. By focusing on the specificity of the lead-wire contact, we show that the geometry of this hybrid system supports a mechanism of channel selection, which is a distinctive hallmark of the mesoscopic nature of the electrodes.

description: It is generally believed that the food processing sector can exercise market power on raw material producers and final consumers. The objective of this study was to assess the degree of oligopoly and oligopsony power of the tea-processing sector. A partial equilibrium model was developed for the world market for tea, treating India, Kenya and Sri Lanka as raw tea producers and Canada, United Kingdom and the United States of America as tea consumers. An imperfectly competitive tea-processing sector was incorporated in the model allowing conjectural variation elasticity to represent the degree of market power. The model was econometrically estimated using the two-stage least square estimation procedure. Results of the econometric estimation show that all the market power estimates are statistically significant. The conjectural elasticity values in the input market are 0.0516, 0.0015 and 0.1657 for India, Kenya and Sri Lanka respectively. The conjectural variation elasticity in the output market is 0.1273. The elasticity of supply with respect to own prices are 0.0791, 0.2268 and 0.2060 for India, Kenya and Sri Lanka respectively. The elasticity of demand with respect to own prices are –0.4720, –0.1556 and –0.1237 for Canada, United Kingdom and the United States respectively. The resulting Learner Index for Sri Lanka is very small indicating that Sri Lankan tea producers are not significantly exploited by tea processors.
Chow Rings of Heavy/Light Hassett Spaces via Tropical Geometry

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Algebraic Geometry (math.AG)

description: We compute the Chow ring of an arbitrary heavy/light Hassett space $\bar{M}_{0, w}$. These spaces are moduli spaces of weighted pointed stable rational curves, where the associated weight vector $w$ consists of only heavy and light weights. Work of Cavalieri et al. exhibits these spaces as tropical compactifications of hyperplane arrangement complements. The computation of the Chow ring then reduces to intersection theory on the toric variety of the Bergman fan of a graphic matroid. Keel has calculated the Chow ring $A^*(\bar{M}_{0, n})$ of the moduli space $\bar{M}_{0, n}$ of stable nodal $n$-marked rational curves; his presentation is in terms of divisor classes of stable trees of $\mathbb{P}^1$'s having one nodal singularity. Our presentation of the ideal of relations for the Chow ring $A^*(\bar{M}_{0, w})$ is analogous. We show that pulling back under Hassett's birational reduction morphism $ρ_w: \bar{M}_{0, n} \to \bar{M}_{0, w}$ identifies the Chow ring $A^*(\bar{M}_{0, w})$ with the subring of $A^*(\bar{M}_{0, n})$ generated by divisors of $w$-stable trees, which are those trees which remain stable in $\bar{M}_{0, w}$.

description: The Hamiltonian analysis of Polyakov action is reviewed putting emphasis in two topics: Dirac observables and gauge conditions. In the case of the closed string it is computed the change of its action induced by the gauge transformation coming from the first class constraints. As expected, the Hamiltonian action is not gauge invariant due to the Hamiltonian constraint quadratic in the momenta. However, it is possible to add a boundary term to the original action to build a fully gauge-invariant action at first order. In addition, two relatives of string theory whose actions are fully gauge-invariant under the gauge symmetry involved when the spatial slice is closed are built. The first one is pure diffeomorphism in the sense it has no Hamiltonian constraint and thus bosonic string theory becomes a sub-sector of its space of solutions. The second one is associated with the tensionless bosonic string, its boundary term induces a canonical transformation and the fully gauge-invariant action written in terms of the new canonical variables becomes linear in the momenta.

description: The growing use of large machine learning models highlights concerns about their increasing computational demands. While the energy consumption of their training phase has received attention, fewer works have considered the inference phase. For ML inference, the binding of ML models to the ML system for user access, known as ML serving, is a critical yet understudied step for achieving efficiency in ML applications.
 We examine the literature in ML architectural design decisions and Green AI, with a special focus on ML serving. The aim is to analyze ML serving architectural design decisions for the purpose of understanding and identifying them with respect to quality characteristics from the point of view of researchers and practitioners in the context of ML serving literature.
 Our results (i) identify ML serving architectural design decisions along with their corresponding components and associated technological stack, and (ii) provide an overview of the quality characteristics studied in the literature, including energy efficiency.
 This preliminary study is the first step in our goal to achieve green ML serving. Our analysis may aid ML researchers and practitioners in making green-aware architecture design decisions when serving their models.

description: This paper defines ecotourism and outlines possible economic and conservational benefits from developing ecotourism or wildlife-based tourism. It identifies possible economic benefits for local communities and possible economic costs to such communities. A sufficient market does not always exist for wildlife-based tourism to make it economically viable. Therefore, market analysis should be undertaken before promoting the development of wildlife-based tourism. A checklist is provided to give guidance in market appraisal. Even non-consumptive wildlife-based tourism can have adverse environmental consequences. These are listed. Care is needed to avoid these negative consequences and to ensure that local communities obtain adequate economic benefits from the development of wildlife-based tourism.

description: The Karolyhazy uncertainty relation is the statement that if a device is used to measure a length $l$, there will be a minimum uncertainty $δl$ in the measurement, given by $(δl)^3 \sim L_P^2\; l$. This is a consequence of combining the principles of quantum mechanics and general relativity. In this note we show how this relation arises in our approach to quantum gravity, in a bottom-up fashion, from the matrix dynamics of atoms of space-time-matter. We use this relation to define a space-time-matter foam at the Planck scale, and to argue that our theory is holographic. By coarse graining over time scales larger than Planck time, one obtains the laws of quantum gravity. Quantum gravity is not a Planck scale phenomenon; rather it comes into play whenever no classical space-time background is available to describe a quantum system. Space-time and classical general relativity arise from spontaneous localisation in a highly entangled quantum gravitational system. The Karolyhazy relation continues to hold in the emergent theory. An experimental confirmation of this relation will constitute a definitive test of the quantum nature of gravity.

description: With the increasing demand for non-wood forest products for medicinal purposes and due to its high scope for value addition, these products are increasingly extracted by local communities not only for subsistence use but also to generate cash income. This study explores the factors determining the dependence of local people on a protected forest area for commercial purposes, from a case study in India. The findings go along with that of similar studies that alternative income sources would greatly reduce the dependence on the forest. This paper computes present value of NTFP using the data from a household survey. The projected value for the population, which gives the opportunity cost of prohibiting the use of forest by the local people, would serve as a good indicator for the policy decision on compensation to be paid to the local people for relocating them from the forest area.

description: We consider the Laguerre partition function, and derive explicit generating functions for connected correlators with arbitrary integer powers of traces in terms of products of Hahn polynomials. It was recently proven that correlators have a topological expansion in terms of weakly or strictly monotone Hurwitz numbers, that can be explicitly computed from our formulae. As a second result we identify the Laguerre partition function with only positive couplings and a special value of the parameter $α=-1/2$ with the modified GUE partition function, which has recently been introduced as a generating function of Hodge integrals. This identification provides a direct and new link between monotone Hurwitz numbers and Hodge integrals.

description: In this paper we study a fundamental issue related to the efficient price discovery process using time series data from seven international black tea markets. The major question studied is as follows: Is the price discovery process in black tea markets efficient? We use two statistical techniques as engines of analysis. First, we use time series methods to capture regularities in time lags among price series. Second, we forecast the tea prices in each market using the time series model we estimated followed by a comparison of the forecast with the forecasts from the random-walk (naïve) model. Weekly time series data on black tea prices from seven markets around the world are studied using time series methods. The study follows two paths. We study these prices in a common currency, the US dollar. We also study prices in each country’s local currency. Results from unit root tests suggest that prices from three Indian markets are not generated through random-walk like behavior. We conclude that the Indian markets are not weak-form efficient. However, prices from all non-Indian markets cannot be distinguished from random-walk like behavior. These latter markets are weak-form efficient. A Vector Autoregressions (VARs) on the non-Indian markets are studied in local currency and in US dollars. We use Theil’s U-statistic to test the forecasting ability of the VAR models. We find that for most markets in either dollars or in local currencies, that a random walk forecast outperforms the VAR generated forecasts. This last result suggests the non-Indian markets are both weak-form and semi-strong form efficient.

description: We fit the broad-band RXTE PCA and HEXTE spectrum from 3--200 keV with reflection models which calculate the vertical ionization structure of an X-ray illuminated disc. We consider two geometries corresponding to a truncated disc/inner hot flow and magnetic flares above an untruncated disc. Both models are able to fit the PCA 3--20 keV data, but with very different spectral components. In the magnetic flare models the 3--20 keV PCA spectrum contains a large amount of highly ionized reflection while in the truncated disc models the amount of reflection is rather small. The Compton downscattering rollover in reflected emission means that the magnetic flare models predict a break in the spectrum at the high energies covered by the HEXTE bandpass which is not seen. By contrast the weakly illuminated truncated disc models can easily fit the 3--200 keV spectra.

description: This study examines, both qualitative and quantitatively, the motivation for crop, livestock, and mixed (both crop and livestock) farms in Canada to behave environmentally responsibly by adopting Environmental Management Systems (EMS) in the farm and the impact of a number of human capital, financial, farm structure, and social characteristics of the farmer and/or the farm on this behavior. It uses the data from 16,053 farms that responded to the Farm Environmental Management Survey conducted by Statistics Canada and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in 2001, which collects information on implementation of EMS in the areas manure, fertilizer, pesticide, water, wildlife, grazing, and nutrient management in the farm.The outcome of analysis show that mixed farms have the highest adoption rates, in general, across the eight EMSs considered in this study, while livestock-only farms have the lowest. The most common EMSs used by all farms are fertilizer and pesticide management plans with the whole farm environmental plan as the least likely to be adopted. The results based on a regression analysis suggest that “young” and “rich” farmers with a “large” land extent tend to adopt as many as possible EMS, but the gender of the farmer does not show a significant impact on this behaviour. The level of urbanization and government regulation also affects significantly the level of adoption of EMSs. The analysis, as a whole, points out that even in the absence of “mandatory” national level policies to regulate agricultural farms in Canada, farmers show a tendency to adopt as much as possible EMS “voluntarily”, because of their own interests in the farming environment and/or motives originating from the market where they operated with.

description: This paper examines the relationship between foreign direct investment and economic growth of Sri Lanka for the period 1977-2003 using Johansen’s full information maximum likelihood method by considering relationship between real gross domestic product, foreign direct investment, domestic investment and openness of the trade policy regime. The results indicate that foreign direct investments exert an independent influence on economic growth and there is bidirectional causality between foreign direct investment and economic growth. The finding suggests that better trade policy reforms, implementation aimed at promoting foreign direct investment and domestic investment, and restoring international competitiveness to expand and diversify the country’s exports have the potential of accelerating economic growth in the future.

description: Post-harvest losses of paddy in Sri Lanka are as high as 15 percent of total production. Of this, about 24 percent of losses occur during the threshing and cleaning stage with tractor treading being the most common paddy threshing method. In order to overcome these deficiencies, recently small and combined threshers have been introduced. This study attempted to determine the efficiency of different paddy threshing methods, and to estimate the profitability of small and combined thresher ownership. The level of adaptability of mechanical threshing methods (i.e., tractor treading, small and combined threshers) and the factors that influence the adoption of paddy threshers were also investigated. Multi-stage random sampling was adopted to collect primary data based on a structured questionnaire from Pollonnaruwa district, one of the major rice growing areas in the country. Financial analysis was employed to find the profitability of thresher ownership. An empirical model was estimated to evaluate the efficiency of mechanical threshing methods based on the savings of labour and material. Logit model was fitted to identify the factors affecting thresher adoption. The study revealed that on average, small and combined threshers increase the net income per ha by Rs.6, 345 and Rs.9, 071 respectively, compared to tractor treading. Combined thresher ownership was found to be more profitable than small thresher ownership. The minimum economic operational area for tractor treading, small thresher and combined thresher were 41.78 ha/yr, 3.47 ha/yr and 20.97 ha/yr, respectively. Monthly income, wealth, cultivated extent and farming experiences were significantly related to the adoption of both small and combined threshers. Since replacing tractor treading by threshing machines reduces the post-harvest losses and increases the net income it is recommended that the availability of both types of threshers to be increased depending on farmer resource endowment.

description: The growth dynamics of an air finger injected in a visco-elastic gel (a PVA/borax aqueous solution) is studied in a linear Hele-Shaw cell. Besides the standard Saffmann-Taylor instability, we observe - with increasing finger velocities - the existence of two new regimes: (a) a stick-slip regime for which the finger tip velocity oscillates between 2 different values, producing local pinching of the finger at regular intervals, (b) a ``tadpole'' regime where a fracture-type propagation is observed. A scaling argument is proposed to interpret the dependence of the stick-slip frequency with the measured rheological properties of the gel.

description: Local magneto-optical imaging and global magnetization measurement techniques were used in order to visualize shielding effects in the superconducting core of MgB_2 wires sheathed by ferromagnetic iron (Fe). The magnetic shielding can provide a Meissner-like state in the superconducting core in applied magnetic fields up to ~1T. The maximum shielding fields are shown to correlate with the saturation fields of magnetization in Fe-sheaths. The shielding has been found to facilitate the appearance of an overcritical state, which is capable of achieving a critical current density (J_c) in the core which is larger than J_c in the same wire without the sheath by a factor of ~2. Other effects caused by the magnetic interaction between the sheath and the superconducting core are discussed.

description: Theatre is innately human. Performative storytelling can be found across most, if not all, cultures. Evidence of ancestral dances, rituals, and recordings allow centuries-old tales to echo into the modern day. Our longing for connection and understanding binds us together as a species, and our pursuit of legacy has been a driving force in development of methods and technologies to better record and share our stories.
description: For me, the story is the driving force for the work that I do. The story is powerful; it can grant a voice to the voiceless, broaden perspectives, and teach us. Dramatizing our stories not only presents the human experience, but it is, in and of itself, a practice in the human experience. Practicing theatre relies on the collaboration of many and an attempt at building community. The success of any production is dependent on the gathering of many different people with varying skillsets who can come together with a shared goal.
description: I am a stage manager. On the surface, the job presents an administrative mask. We distribute important information to the team, run meetings, maintain schedules, ensure policies are adhered to, call the cues for the show, and archive the process. In a community of obvious artists, stage managers can seem out of place. Our creative process is not as evident as our counterparts, and one must think outside the box of the traditional definition of art to see how we fit the mold. However, stage managers are artists. Calling a show is a performance, and without our own sense of creativity and dedication to the vision, a show would not be successful. The stage manager’s adaptability and wealth of knowledge allows them to problem-solve. Our organizational abilities allow us to shift from detail-oriented work to broad, “big picture” focus. Stage managers are constantly juggling multiple facets of the production, and to ignore the artistry in that act is a disservice to the work it takes to do so without disrupting the process.

That is, if $Ω$ is an open subset of the plane with smooth boundary, $u\in C^1(Ω)$ satisfies $Lu=0$ on $Ω$, has tempered growth at the boundary, and its weak boundary value is a measure $μ$, then $μ$ is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure on the noncharacteristic portion of $\partialΩ$.
