description: Soils, just like all other ecosystem compartments, change over time and, consequently, conditions for soil-inhabiting organisms are also changing, affecting their composition and diversity. Soil biodiversity is a critical component of ecosystems that supports many essential ecosystem functions and services, such as nutrient cycling, carbon sequestration, water regulation and biomass production for food, fodder, fibre and energy. However, and despite the importance of soil biodiversity for ecosystem health and human well-being, neither current state, drivers, potential consequences for ecosystem services nor options for sustainable governance of soil biodiversity are well understood. Here, we provide a framework for and argue that conducting a national assessment of soil biodiversity, albeit being a complex endeavour, is fundamental to building a baseline to understand the current state and trends of soil biodiversity, but also to identify the main drivers of change, the impacts of soil biodiversity loss and the potential pathways for conservation and sustainable governance of soil biodiversity.

description: The use of panel data models with two-way fixed effects is widespread. Incidental-parameter bias, however, invalidates inference based on the (profile) likelihood. We consider modifications to the likelihood that yield asymptotically-unbiased estimators as well as test statistics that are size correct under rectangular-array asymptotics. The modifications are widely applicable and easy to implement. Through several examples we illustrate that the modifications can lead to dramatic improvements relative to maximum likelihood, both in terms of point estimation and inference.
Efficient Power Flow Management and Peak Shaving in a Microgrid-PV System

description: With the increasing penetration of the roof-top solar PV and the rising interest in net-zero energy homes concept, there is a need of balancing the performance of intelligent controllers, their cost-effectiveness and over-all sophistication of the microgrid systems in order to manage the bi-directional power flow in the small as well as large size microgrids. This paper proposes solutions to efficiently manage power flow and to achieve peak shaving in a renewable-source fed microgrid system. The paper details the design and simulation of a photovoltaic source fed microgrid system that achieves peak shaving and efficient power flow management using advanced metering and a smart control unit. The proposed system enables microgrid to maintain the power consumption within limits during peak hours by shedding luxurious loads automatically. Under the grid-connected mode of the microgrid, the system feeds the excess power available to the utility grid during lower load requirements and withdraws the power deficit from the grid during high demand hours when photovoltaic power generation is not sufficient to fulfill the load requirement. The proposed system exhibits desirable power flow management performance and is capable of functioning with distributed generation sources other than PV.

description: A new geometric representation of qubit and qutrit states based on probability simplexes is used to describe the separability and entanglement properties of density matrices of two qubits. The Peres--Horodecki positive partial transpose (ppt)-criterion and the concurrence inequalities are formulated as the conditions that the introduced probability distributions must satisfy to present entanglement. A four-level system, where one or two states are inaccessible, is considered as an example of applying the elaborated probability approach in an explicit form. The areas of three Triadas of Malevich's squares for entangled states of two qubits are defined through the qutrit state, and the critical values of the sum of their areas are calculated. We always find an interval for the sum of the square areas, which provides the possibility for an experimental checkup of the entanglement of the system in terms of the probabilities.

description: Racial health inequities in the United States and globally are profound and persistent. Currently, a national consensus on centering racial health equity in systematic reviews is lacking. We sought to understand how to define racial health equity in the context of systematic reviews and how to staff, conduct, disseminate, sustain, and evaluate systematic reviews that center racial health equity. To do so, we conducted semi-structured interviews with interest holders, defined as individuals or representatives of groups responsible for or affected by health- and healthcare-related decisions, including patients, community representatives, systematic reviewers, clinicians, guideline developers, primary researchers, and end-users such as funders, policymakers, and health system administrators.

description: We study the time evolution of classical spin systems with purely relaxational dynamics, quenched from T >> T_c to the critical point, in the semi-infinite geometry. Shortly after the quench, like in the bulk, a nonequilibrium regime governed by universal power laws is also found near the surface. We show for `ordinary' and `special' transitions that the corresponding critical exponents differ from their bulk values, but can be expressed via scaling relations in terms of known bulk and surface exponents. To corroborate our scaling analysis, we present perturbative (epsilon-expansion) and Monte Carlo results.

description: This paper studies monetary and exchange rate policy in a world of global value chains. Using recent microdata from Japan and Russia, devaluations are shown to negatively affect exporters in terms of employment, domestic revenue and profitability relative to nonexporting firms. Given their substantial dependence on imported intermediate inputs, exporting firms are more exposed to marginal cost shocks following exchange rate movements. Standard macro models are too simplistic in their microstructure to capture these transmission channels. I propose a New Keynesian general equilibrium model with firm heterogeneity, varying intermediate import intensities, and international dollar pricing to explain the findings. Strategic complementarities improve the quantitative performance of the model without changing its qualitative properties. The new paradigm is successful in matching key firm-level moments as well as the evolution of inflation and net exports.

Distribution Effects of Local Minimum Wage Hikes: A Spatial Job Search Approach

Subjects: spatial equilibrium

description: This paper develops and estimates a spatial general equilibrium job search model to study the effects of local and universal (federal) minimum wage policies. In the model, firms post vacancies in multiple locations. Workers, who are heterogeneous in terms of location and education types, engage in random search and can migrate or commute in response to job offers. I estimate the model by combining multiple databases including the American Community Survey (ACS) and Quarterly Workforce Indicators (QWI). The estimated model is used to analyze how minimum wage policies affect employment, wages, job postings, vacancies, migration/ commuting, and welfare. Empirical results show that minimum wage increases in local county lead to an exit of low type (education<12 years) workers and an influx of high type workers (education_12 years), which generates negative externalities for workers in neighboring areas. I use the model to simulate the effects of a range of minimum wages. Minimum wage increases up to $14/hour increase the welfare of high type workers but lower welfare of low type workers, expanding inequality. Increases in excess of $14/hour decrease welfare for all workers. I further evaluate two counterfactual policies: restricting labor mobility and preempting local minimum wage laws. For a certain range of minimum wages, both policies have negative impacts on the welfare of high type workers, but beneficial effects for low type workers.
Leptogenesis in Theories with Large Extra Dimensions

description: We study the scenario of baryogenesis through leptogenesis in higher-dimensional theories, in which the scale of quantum gravity is many orders of magnitude smaller than the usual Planck mass. The minimal realization of these theories includes an isosinglet neutrino which feels the presence of large compact dimensions, whereas all the SM particles are localized on a $(1+3)$-dimensional subspace. In the formulation of minimal leptogenesis models, we pay particular attention to the existence of Majorana spinors in higher dimensions. After compactification of the extra dimensions, we obtain a tower of Majorana Kaluza-Klein excitations which act as an infinite series of CP-violating resonators, and derive the necessary conditions for their constructive interference. Based on this CP-violating mechanism, we find that the decays of the heavy Majorana excitations can produce a leptonic asymmetry which is reprocessed into the observed baryonic asymmetry of the Universe by means of out-of-equilibrium sphaleron interactions, provided the reheat temperature is above 5 GeV.

description: This paper studies the estimation of large dynamic covariance matrices with multiple conditioning variables. We introduce an easy-to-implement semiparametric method to estimate each entry of the covariance matrix via model averaging marginal regression, and then apply a shrinkage technique to obtain the dynamic covariance matrix estimation. Under some regularity conditions, we derive the asymptotic properties for the proposed estimators including the uniform consistency with general convergence rates. We further consider extending our methodology to deal with the scenarios: (i) the number of conditioning variables is divergent as the sample size increases, and (ii) the large covariance matrix is conditionally sparse relative to contemporaneous market factors. We provide a simulation study that illustrates the finite-sample performance of the developed methodology. We also provide an application to financial portfolio choice from daily stock returns.
Locally $D$-optimal Designs for a Wider Class of Non-linear Models on the $k$-dimensional Ball with applications to logit and probit models

description: In this paper we extend the results of Radloff and Schwabe (2018), which could be applied for example to Poisson regression, negative binomial regression and proportional hazard models with censoring, to a wider class of non-linear multiple regression models. This includes the binary response models with logit and probit link besides other. For this class of models we derive (locally) $D$-optimal designs when the design region is a $k$-dimensional ball. For the corresponding construction we make use of the concept of invariance and equivariance in the context of optimal designs as in our previous paper. In contrast to the former results the designs will not necessarily be exact designs in all cases. Instead approximate designs can appear. These results can be generalized to arbitrary ellipsoidal design regions.

Nonparametric estimation of infinite order regression and its application to the risk-return tradeoff
Creators: name: Hong, Seok Young
name: Linton, Oliver B
Publisher: name: Apollo - University of Cambridge Repository
Year: 2018

description: This paper studies nonparametric estimation of the infinite order regression [see code in paper] with stationary and weakly dependent data. We propose a Nadaraya-Watson type estimator that operates with an infinite number of conditioning variables. The established theories are applied to examine the intertemporal risk-return relation for the aggregate stock market, and some new empirical evidence is reported. With a bandwidth sequence that shrinks the effects of long lags, the influence of all conditioning information is modelled in a natural and flexible way, and the issues of omitted information bias and specification error are effectively handled. Asymptotic properties of the estimator are shown under a wide range of static and dynamic regressions frameworks, thereby allowing various kinds of conditioning variables to be used. We establish pointwise/uniform consistency and CLTs. It is shown that the convergence rates are at best logarithmic, and depend on the smoothness of the regression, the distribution of the marginal regressors and their dependence structure in a non-trivial way via the Lambert W function. The empirical studies on S&P 500 daily data from 1950-2016 using our estimator report an overall positive risk-return relation. We also find evidence of strong time variation and counter- cyclical behaviour in risk aversion. These conclusions are attributable to the inclusion of otherwise neglected information in our method.
Nuclear medium modifications of the NN interaction via quasielastic ($\vec p,\vec p '$) and ($\vec{p},\vec{n}$) scattering

description: Within the relativistic PWIA, spin observables have been recalculated for quasielastic ($\vec p,\vec p '$) and ($\vec p,\vec n$) reactions on a $^{40}$Ca target. The incident proton energy ranges from 135 to 300 MeV while the transferred momentum is kept fixed at 1.97 fm^{-1}. In the present calculations, new Horowitz-Love--Franey relativistic NN amplitudes have been generated in order to yield improved and more quantitative spin observable values than before. The sensitivities of the various spin observables to the NN interaction parameters, such as (1) the presence of the surrounding nuclear medium, (2) a pseudoscalar versus a pseudovector interaction term, and (3) exchange effects, point to spin observables which should preferably be measured at certain laboratory proton energies, in order to test current nuclear models. This study also shows that nuclear medium effects become more important at lower proton energies ($\leq$ 200 MeV). A comparison to the limited available data indicates that the relativistic parametrization of the NN scattering amplitudes in terms of only the five Fermi invariants (the SVPAT form) is questionable.

description: We propose a Kronecker product model for correlation or covariance matrices in the large dimension case. The number of parameters of the model increases logarithmically with the dimension of the matrix. We propose a minimum distance (MD) estimator based on a log-linear property of the model, as well as a one-step estimator, which is a one-step approximation to the quasi-maximum likelihood estimator (QMLE).We establish the rate of convergence and a central limit theorem (CLT) for our estimators in the large dimensional case. A specification test and tools for Kronecker product model selection and inference are provided. In an Monte Carlo study where a Kronecker product model is correctly specified, our estimators exhibit superior performance. In an empirical application to portfolio choice for S&P500 daily returns, we demonstrate that certain Kronecker product models are good approximations to the general covariance matrix.
Hints for multiple populations in intermediate-age clusters of the Small Magellanic Cloud

description: We report on the magnitude of the intrinsic [Fe/H] spread in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) intermediate-age massive clusters NGC 339, 361, Lindsay 1 and 113, respectively. In order to measure the cluster metallicity dispersions, we used accurate Stromgren photometry of carefully selected cluster red giant branch (RGB) stars. We determined the Fe-abundance spreads by employing a maximum likelihood approach. The spreads obtained using the more accurate photometry of the brighter RGB stars resulted to be marginal (~ 0.05+-0.03 dex) for NGC 339 and NGC 361, while for Lindsay 1 and Lindsay 113 we obtained metallicity spreads of 0.00+-0.04 dex. From these results, we speculated with the possibility that NGC 361 is added to the group of four SMC clusters with observational evidence of multiple populations (MPs). Furthermore, in the context of the present debate about the existence of Fe-abundance inhomogeneities among old clusters with MPs, these outcomes put new constrains to recent theoretical speculations for making this phenomenon visible.

description: Given the territorial recognition in 1981 by the federal government, Rondônia gainedincreased attention throughout the 1990s due to land disputes and the need to reduce ruralpoverty levels and violent conflicts over land in the region. Assisted by the World Bank, thesolution came through the implementation of the Agrarian Reform model, regulated by theNational Institute of Colonization and Agrarian Reform (INCRA). Subsequently, there wassignificant population growth, both among the local residents and those coming from otherstates. With the integration of data from the National System Operator (ONS) and theEnergy Research Company (EPE) into the Energy Access Explorer (EAE) tool, this reportaims to verify the population development in areas corresponding to the reforms carried outby the federal government. Through the inclusion of this data, it was possible to observethat the wealth index and population concentration are at the epicenter of the areas wherereforms occurred or along the transmission lines of the state.

description: We propose a semi-parametric coupled component GARCH model for intraday and overnight volatility that allows the two return series to have different properties. We adopt a dynamic conditional score model with t-distributed innovations that captures the very heavy tails of overnight returns. We propose a several-step estimation procedure that captures the nonparametric slowly moving components by kernel estimation and the dynamic parameters by estimated maximum likelihood. We establish the consistency, asymptotic normality, and semiparametric efficiency of our semiparametric estimation procedures. We extend the modelling to the multivariate case where we allow time varying correlation between stocks. We apply our model to the study of Dow Jones industrial average component stocks, CRSP size-based portfolios, and size-based portfolios in four large international markets over the period 1993-2017. We show that the ratio of overnight to intraday volatility has actually increased in importance for Dow Jones stocks during the last two decades. This ratio has also increased for large stocks in the CRSP database, but decreased for small stocks in CRSP. Notably, the slope increases monotonically from the smallest-cap decile to the largest-cap decile. This pattern also exists in other international markets. The multivariate model shows that overnight and intraday correlations have both increased, but overnight correlations have increased more substantially during recent crises than intraday correlations.

description: We consider nonlinear moment restriction semiparametric models where both the dimension of the parameter vector and the number of restrictions are divergent with sample size and an unknown smooth function is involved. We propose an estimation method based on the sieve generalized method of moments (sieve GMM). We establish consistency and asymptotic normality for the estimated quantities when the number of parameters increases modestly with sample size. We also consider the case where the number of potential parameters/covariates is very large, i.e., increases rapidly with sample size, but the true model exhibits sparsity. We use a penalized sieve GMM approach to select the relevant variables, and establish the oracle property of our method in this case. We also provide new results for inference. We propose several new test statistics for the over-identification and establish their large sample properties. We provide a simulation study that shows the performance of our methodology. We also provide an application to modelling the effect of schooling on wages using data from the NLSY79 used by Carneiro et al. [17].

description: The cuprate high temperature superconductors develop spontaneous charge density wave (CDW) order below a temperature $T_{CDW}$ and over a wide range of hole doping (p). An outstanding challenge in the field is to understand whether this modulated phase is related to the more exhaustively studied pseudogap and superconducting phases. To address this issue it is important to extract the energy scale $Δ_{CDW}$ associated with the charge modulations, and to compare it with the pseudogap (PG) $Δ_{PG}$ and the superconducting gap $Δ_{SC}$. However, while $T_{CDW}$ is well-characterized from earlier works little has been known about $Δ_{CDW}$ until now. Here, we report the extraction of $Δ_{CDW}$ for several cuprates using electronic Raman spectroscopy. Crucially, we find that, upon approaching the parent Mott state by lowering $p$, $Δ_{CDW}$ increases in a manner similar to the doping dependence of $Δ_{PG}$ and $Δ_{SC}$. This shows that CDW is an unconventional order, and that the above three phases are controlled by the same electronic correlations. In addition, we find that $Δ_{CDW} \approx Δ_{SC}$ over a substantial doping range, which is suggestive of an approximate emergent symmetry connecting the charge modulated phase with superconductivity.

description: This paper concerns empirical measurement of Hicksian consumer welfare under intervalreported income. Bhattacharya (2015) has shown that for discrete choice, welfare distributions resulting from a hypothetical price-change can be expressed as closed-form transformations of choice probabilities. However, when income is interval-reported, as is the case in many surveys, the choice probabilities, and hence welfare distributions are not point-identified. We derive bounds on average welfare in such scenarios under the assumption of a normal good. A finding of independent interest is a set of Slutsky-like shape restrictions which are linear in average demand, unlike those for continuous choice. A parametric specification of choice probabilities facilitates imposition of these Slutsky conditions, and leads to computationally simple inference for the partially identified features of welfare. In particular, the estimand is shown to be directionally differentiable, so that recently developed bootstrap methods can be applied for inference. Under mis-specification, our results provide a "best parametric approximation" to demand and welfare. These methods can be used for inference in more general settings where a class of set-identified functions satisfy linear inequality restrictions, and one wishes to conduct inference on functionals thereof. We illustrate our theoretical results using a simulation exercise based on a real dataset where actual income is observed. We artificially introduce interval-censoring of income, calculate bounds for the average welfare effects of a price-subsidy using our methods, and find that they perform favorably in comparison with estimates obtained using actual income.

description: We study the impact of debt maturity on optimal fiscal policy by focusing on the case where the government issues a bond of maturity N > 1: Isolating these effects helps provide insight into the construction of optimal government debt portfolios. We find long bonds may not complete the market even in the absence of uncertainty, generate an incentive to twist interest rates and induce additional tax volatility compared to short term bonds. By focusing just on the issuance of long bonds we show that as well as their well known advantage in providing fiscal insurance long bonds also have less attractive features that induce additional tax volatility. In the case of long bonds, governments induce tax volatility in order to twist interest rates at maturity. This interest rate twisting effect is what makes optimal debt management models so difficult to solve computationally as the state space rapidly becomes cumbersome due to the need to keep track of promises about future tax rates. We provide an alternative institutional setup (\independent powers\) that eliminates this problem offering a simpler solution method. Introducing maturity requires making more institutional assumptions than is the case for one period bonds. In particular assumptions have to be made whether the government does or doesn't buy back each period all outstanding debt irrespective of maturity and whether long bonds pay coupons. This is important as the literature to date makes assumptions that are diametrically opposite to what is observed in practice. We show that this is an important divide as if we model optimal policy under the empirically motivated assumption that governments do not buyback bonds until maturity then long bonds induce additional tax volatility due to the existence of N period roll over cycles. These can be reduced in magnitude by the government issuing long bonds that pay coupons although because coupons reduce the duration of a bond below its maturity this does compromise the ability of long bonds to provide fiscal insurance.

description: The production of $X(4350)$ in the $γγ$ interactions that occur in proton-proton, proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is investigated and predictions for the kinematical ranges probed by the ALICE and LHCb Collaborations are presented. We focus on the $γγ\rightarrow ϕJ/Ψ$ process, which have been measured by the Belle Collaboration, and present parameter free predictions for the total cross sections at the LHC energies. Our results demonstrate that the experimental study of this process is feasible and can be used to confirm or not the existence of the $X(4350)$ state. Finally, for completeness, we present predictions for the production of the $X(3915)$ state in the $γγ\rightarrow ωJ/Ψ$ process and show that this exotic state can also be probed in $γγ$ interactions at the LHC.

Bounds on Kaluza-Klein excitations of the SM vector bosons from electroweak tests

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Within a minimal extension of the SM in 4+1 dimensions, we study how Kaluza Klein excitations of the SM gauge bosons affect the electroweak precision observables. Asymmetries in Z decays provide the dominant bound on the compactification scale M of the extra dimension. If the higgs is so light that will be discovered at LEP2, we find the following 95% CL bounds: M > 3.5 TeV (if the higgs lives in the extra dimension) and M > 4.3 TeV (if the higgs is confined to our 4 dimensions). In the second case Kaluza Klein modes give "universal"corrections and a good fit of precision data can be obtained with an heavier higgs (up to 500 GeV) and with a smaller M > 3.4 TeV.

Efficient Estimation of Nonparametric Regression in The Presence of Dynamic Heteroskedasticity

description: We study the efficient estimation of nonparametric regression in the presence of heteroskedasticity. We focus our analysis on local polynomial estimation of nonparametric regressions with conditional heteroskedasticity in a time series setting. We introduce a weighted local polynomial regression smoother that takes account of the dynamic heteroskedasticity. We show that, although traditionally it is adviced that one should not weight for heteroskedasticity in nonparametric regressions, in many popular nonparametric regression models our method has lower asymptotic variance than the usual unweighted procedures. We conduct a Monte Carlo investigation that confirms the efficiency gain over conventional nonparametric regression estimators infinite samples.

description: We set observational constraints on the second clock effect, predicted by Weyl unified field theory, by investigating recent data on the dilated lifetime of muons accelerated by a magnetic field. These data were obtained in an experiment carried out in CERN aiming at measuring the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. In our analysis we employ the definition of invariant proper time proposed by V. Perlick, which seems to be the appropriate notion to be worked out in the context of Weyl space-time.
