description: In most electronic devices, electric current of both types (electrons and holes) flows through a junction. Usually the boundary conditions have been formulated exclusively for open circuit. The boundary conditions proposed here bypass this limitation by the first time, as far as we are aware. Besides, these new boundary conditions correctly describe current flow in a circuit, i.e., closed circuit conditions, which are the usual operation conditions for electronic devices and for the measurement of many transport properties. We also have generalized the case (as much as it is possible in a classical treatment), so self-consistent boundary conditions to describe current-flow through a contact between two arbitrary conducting media are developed in the present work. These boundary conditions take into account a recently developed theory: influence of temperature space inhomogeneity due to the interfaces and quasi-particles temperature-mismatch on thermo-generation and recombination. They also take into account surface resistance, surface recombination rates and possible temperature discontinuities at the interface due to finite surface thermo-conductivity. The temperature difference between current-carriers and phonon subsystems is also included in this approach.

description: The aim of this article is to present new models of acreage choices to describe short term production choices. Its construction combines concepts developed in the Positive Mathematical Programming and Multicrop Econometric literatures. They consider land as an allocable fixed input and motivate crop diversification by decreasing returns to crop area and/or implicit costs generated by constraints on acreage choices and by limiting quantities of quasi-fixed factors. Attractive re-parametrization of the standard quadratic production function and different functional forms for cost function are proposed to have parameters easily interpretable and to define econometric models in a very simple way.

description: Let $G$ be a reductive group over a number field $F$, which is split at a finite place $\mathfrak{p}$ of $F$, and let $π$ be a cuspidal automorphic representation of $G$, which is cohomological with respect to the trivial coefficient system and Steinberg at $\mathfrak{p}$. We use the cohomology of $\mathfrak{p}$-arithmetic subgroups of $G$ to attach automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants to $π$. This generalizes a construction of Darmon (respectively Spieß), who considered the case $G=GL_2$ over the rationals (respectively over a totally real number field). These $\mathcal{L}$-invariants depend a priori on a choice of degree of cohomology, in which the representation $π$ occurs. We show that they are independent of this choice provided that the $π$-isotypical part of cohomology is cyclic over Venkatesh's derived Hecke algebra. Further, we show that automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants can be detected by completed cohomology. Combined with a local-global compatibility result of Ding it follows that for certain representations of definite unitary groups the automorphic $\mathcal{L}$-invariants are equal to the Fontaine-Mazur $\mathcal{L}$-invariants of the associated Galois representation.

description: Does colonisation explain differences in trade performance across developing countries? In this paper, we analyse the differential impact of British versus French colonial legacies on the current trade of African ex-colonies. We initially find that former British colonies trade more, on average, than do their French counterparts. This difference might be the result of the relative superiority of British institutions. However, a core concern is the non-random selection of colonies by the British. Historians argue that with Britain, trade preceded colonisation. Using an instrument based on colonisation history to control for this endogeneity, we find no evidence of a systematic difference between the British and French colonial legacies with respect to trade. This finding suggests that the apparent better performance of British ex-colonies might be instead explained by pre-colonial conditions.

description: In this revised reply to quant-ph/0211165, I address the question of the validity of my results in greater detail, by comparing my predictions to those of the Silberfarb-Deutsch model, and I deal at greater length with the beam area paradox. As before, I conclude that my previous results are an (order-of-magnitude) accurate estimate of the error probability introduced in quantum logical operations by the quantum nature of the laser field. While this error will typically (for a paraxial beam) be smaller than the total error due to spontaneous emission, a unified treatment of both effects reveals that they lead to formally similar constraints on the minimum number of photons per pulse required to perform an operation with a given accuracy; these constraints agree with those I have derived elsewhere.

description: Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a debilitating lung disease characterised by breathlessness, cough and reduced health-related quality of life. People with PF have unmet supportive care needs and express a desire for support in self-management. However, a self-management educational package designed specifically for PF is lacking. My research program developed a novel PF-specific self-management package, which consists of 12 topics that people living with PF and healthcare professionals identified as essential for self-management. Delivery of the package was feasible and acceptable to people with PF, providing a strong foundation for future research examining the impact of self-management on patient-centred outcomes.

description: Does formal contracting foster cooperation in a buyer-supplier relationship? In line with the literature, we find that a renegotiable contract with relationship-specific joint investments does not make it possible to reach the first-best. However, we show that a renegotiable contract may induce more cooperation than an informal arrangement. This result may help to understand how cooperation emerges in Japanese procurement practices, which typically involve relationship-specific joint investments and renegotiable contracts.

description: In this paper we compute the high-temperature effective Lagrangian for the quantum electrodynamics defined in the framework of Very Special Relativity (VSR). The main aspect of the VSR setting is that it modifies the gauge invariance, admitting now different types of interactions appearing in a nonlocal form. In order to explore the richness of these new couplings, we employ the usual Matsubara imaginary-time formalism to evaluate the effective Lagrangian at one and two-loop order. We illustrate the leading VSR Lorentz violation modifications by computing high-temperature internal energy density and establishing a comparison with the expected contribution.

description: In an inhomogeneously doped magnetic semiconductor spin relaxation time T_1 can be determined by all-electrical measurements. Nonequilibrium spin injected in a magnetic p-n junction gives rise to the spin-voltaic effect where the nonequilibrium spin-induced charge current is very sensitive to T_1 and can flow even at no applied bias. It is proposed that T_1 can be determined by measuring the I-V characteristics in such a geometry. For a magnetic p-n junction where the results can be calculated analytically, it is in addition possible to extract the g-factor and the degree of injected carrier spin polarization.

In this paper we analyze the adversarial robustness of texture and shape-biased models to Universal Adversarial Perturbations (UAPs). We use UAPs to evaluate the robustness of DNN models with varying degrees of shape-based training. We find that shape-biased models do not markedly improve adversarial robustness, and we show that ensembles of texture and shape-biased models can improve universal adversarial robustness while maintaining strong performance.

description: A new method for measuring trade potential from border effects is developed and applied to manufactured trade between the old fifteen European Union (EU) members and twelve Central and East European (CEE) economies. Border effects are estimated with three theoretically compatible trade specifications, and much larger trade potentials are obtained than predicted by usual trade potential models. Even after a decade of regional trade liberalization, the integration of CEE and EU economies is two to three times weaker than intra-EU integration, revealing a large potential for East-West European trade.

On Higher-Dimensional Dynamics

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Technical results are presented on motion in N(>4)D manifolds to clarify the physics of Kaluza-Klein theory, brane theory and string theory. The so-called canonical or warp metric in 5D effectively converts the manifold from a coordinate space to a momentum space, resulting in a new force (per unit mass) parallel to the 4D velocity. The form of this extra force is actually independent of the form of the metric, but for an unbound particle is tiny because it is set by the energy density of the vacuum or cosmological constant. It can be related to a small change in the rest mass of a particle, and can be evaluated in two convenient gauges relevant to gravitational and quantum systems. In the quantum gauge, the extra force leads to Heisenberg's relation between increments in the position and momenta. If the 4D action is quantized then so is the higher-dimensional part, implying that particle mass is quantized, though only at a level of 10^{-65} gm or less which is unobservably small. It is noted that massive particles which move on timeline paths in 4D can move on null paths in 5D. This agrees with the view from inflationary quantum field theory, that particles acquire mass dynamically in 4D but are intrinsically massless. A general prescription for dynamics is outlined, wherein particles move on null paths in an N(>4)D manifold which may be flat, but have masses set by an embedded 4D manifold which is curved.

description: Newly available data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis confirm previous impressions that the nonmetro economy continued to lag behind metro areas over the last several years. The data give us a more precise picture showing that employment in nonmetro areas declined more during bad times and increased less in good times than in metro areas in 1979-86, a period spanning recession and recovery. Growth in nonmetro employment generally lagged behind metro employment growth in both goods-producing and service-producing industries.

description: Most of the inflationary scenarios that try to explain the origin of Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) from the enhancements of the power spectrum to values of order one, at the relevant scales, run into clashes with the Effective Field Theory (EFT) criteria or fail to enhance the power spectrum to such large amplitudes. In this paper, we unravel a mechanism for enhancing the power spectrum during inflation that does not use the flattening of the potential or reduction of the sound speed of scalar perturbations. The mechanism is based on this observation in the formalism of Extended EFT of inflation (EEFToI) with the sixth order polynomial dispersion relation for scalar perturbations that if the quartic coefficient in the dispersion relation is negative and smaller than a certain threshold, the amplitude of the power spectrum is enhanced substantially. The instability mechanism must arrange to kick in at the scales of interest related to the mass of the PBHs one would like to produce, which can be ten(s) of solar mass PBHs, suitable for LIGO events, or $10^{-17}-10^{-13}$ solar mass PBHs, which can comprise the whole dark matter energy density. We argue that the strong coupling is avoided for the range of parameters that the mechanisms enhance the power spectrum to the required amount.

A particular attention is given to agricultural policies, namely the level and type of support. Results indicate that crop area payments discourage the different labour demands in both countries. No other subsidies have a significant influence on labour use in Switzerland. By contrast, in France environment and investment payments favour labour use, in particular external labour (contract and hired labour).

description: Almost all rural hospitals are losing money as a result of dramatic declines in use, changes in government funding, and fewer local doctors. But that does not mean that rural residents must forgo local medical care. With a little creativity, rural America can have a strong base for local health care. Most patients no longer need a bed in a hospital. And modern emergency care techniques can stabilize patients for transport to a more distant hospital. Physician assistants and nurse practitioners can help ease the workload of the local physicians.

description: Loch na h-Airde, on the peninsula of Rubha an Dunain, on the south-western corner of Skye, contains evidence for a 12th century dockyard, built and operated by the Vikings. The inland loch is connected to the sea via a stone canal. The dockyard complex consisted of two loch quays and two sets of stone-built boat docks and noosts – stone and turf boat shelters, used when the ships were dragged out of the water. Given the scale of the complex, it is probable the loch was used to construct or repair ships. It might also have served as a staging location or a place to shelter and overwinter boats. This reconstruction shows the dockyard in 1100, during the Norse presence.

Genomic resources for the study of anisogramma anomala and the Eastern filbert blight pathosystem
Creators: name: Cohen, Alanna B.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2025

description: Commercial production of European hazelnut (Corylus avellana) in the United States is severely limited by Anisogramma anomala, the causal agent of Eastern Filbert Blight (EFB). Research efforts have identified a resistance gene from ‘Gasaway’ that confers complete resistance to EFB. Hazelnut breeding programs have since integrated the so-called ‘Gasaway’ R gene into a range of EFB resistant C. avellana cultivars despite concerns over single gene resistance. In the years since, these ‘Gasaway’ protected hazelnut trees have held up poorly in New Jersey and succumbed to EFB. Despite the economic importance of A. anomala, little is known about this pathogen, largely due to methodological difficulties associated with laboratory-based experimentation on biotrophic pathogens. The purpose of the following works is to apply genomics to elucidate the biological properties of A. anomala and the EFB pathosystem and determine the cause of ‘Gasaway’ resistance breakdown in New Jersey. The genome of a strain of A. anomala isolated from Oregon was sequenced and annotated to provide a reference genome for future study of EFB. The massive 350 Mb genome reveals features that are consistent with other biotrophic plant pathogens, including the proliferation of transposable elements, species-specific gene families with functions related to pathogenesis, and a large cache of putative effector genes. A. anomala also exhibits a genome with bipartite architecture, fitting the “two-speed” genome model, providing a mechanism by which genome evolution occurs. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers derived from the genome sequence were used for genetic fingerprinting of a controlled inoculation evaluating the breakdown of ‘Gasaway’ resistance in New Jersey. The results indicate a genetic shift in the population of A. anomala, suggesting the emergence of a novel pathotype of the fungus that is responsible for the compatible plant pathogen interaction and the incidence of EFB observed in New Jersey. Finally, the genome of the ‘Gasaway breaker’ pathotype was sequenced and utilized in a comparative genomics approach with other pathotypes, including the reference strain. The results of the comparative genomics study reveal the expansion of gene families that encode putative effectors with novel functions in the ‘Gasaway breaker’. Evidence of transposable element insertion into genomic regions corresponding to genes encoding effectors suggests that transposon activity may contribute to the mechanisms by which A. anomala is evolving to overcome ‘Gasaway’ mediated resistance. Taken together, these works provide a genetic basis for the breakdown of ‘Gasaway’ resistance in New Jersey and the biological features of A. anomala that enable the pathogen to evolve and adapt to a resistant host population.

description: Using a panel of French crop farms, we test whether farmers’ technical efficiency under conventional practices is a significant driver of conversion to organic farming. An important issue is whether subsidies to organic farming could encourage inefficient farmers to convert. We find that the probability of conversion does depend on technical efficiency preceding the conversion, but that the direction of the effect depends on farm size. This result is found to be robust to the method of calculation of efficiency scores, either parametric or non-parametric. This study also confirms that farm’s characteristics impact the probability of conversion to organic farming.

(Figs. 11–20)
Vertex (Fig. 11) milky yellow, with three large orange yellow patches, the central one produced forward and a dark brown stripe along anterior margin of vertex. Eyes (Fig. 11) black. Face (Fig. 12) milky yellow; lorae and lower part of frontoclypeus brownish black; anteclypeus and pair of dark spots below antennal pits black. A slim transverse brownish fascia at transition from face to vertex, arc-like. Pronotum (Fig. 11) whitish yellow, with large irregular orange brown patches at middle area. Scutellum (Fig. 11) triangular, transverse impression distinct, curved slightly, with a longitudinal dark line between basal triangles and a blackish brown tip of apex. Fore wing (Fig. 13) with large orange yellow stripes or patches, smoked pattern in apical area light brown.
Abdominal apodemes (Fig. 14) long, extended beyond posterior margin of 4th sternite.
 Male genitalia. Pygofer lobe (Fig. 15) broad, with oblique dorsolateral internal ridge. Several macrosetae at basal lower angle and near caudal margin well developed. Subgenital plate (Fig. 16) short, broadened especially at base, with several macrosetae arranged in a row along upper margin. Style (Fig. 17) apex curved laterally, with a small tooth at subapex; preapical lobe cheliform. Aedeagal shaft (Fig. 19) just upper part slim, tubular and lower part expanded, with single robust apical process. A large strong appendage arising from central area of aedeagal shaft, which apex bifurcate, teeth-like. Aedeagus (Figs. 18, 19) preatrium absent; dorsal apodeme little shorter than shaft, expanded in lateral view. Connective (Fig. 20) central lobe absent, two arms long and slim, stem very short.
 Specimen examined. Holotype, ♂, China, Guizhou Province, Mt. Leigong, 1400~ 2170 m, 14-VII-2005, coll. Bin Zhang and Zaihua Yang. Paratypes: 19♂, 20♀, same data as holotype.
 Host plant. Populus davidiana Dode (Poplar).
 Measurement. Body length males 2.8–3.0 mm, females 3.0–3.2 mm.
 Remarks. This new species resembles K. datianensis sp. nov., sharing with the latter the aedeagal shaft (Fig. 19) only upper part tubular, slightly curved dorsally and lower part expanged; a strong and long process arising from the central area of aedeagal shaft ventrally; but can be distinguished from the latter by the aedeagus (Fig. 19) preatrium absent; the dorsal apodeme (Fig. 19) broadened in lateral view and little shorter than aedeagal shaft; the apex of atrium appendage (Figs. 18, 19) branched, teeth-like.
 Etymology. The specimen examined were collected from poplar tree, so the new species is named after the name of its plant host.

description: Sustainable agricultural practices could promote agricultural development. They have proven to improve soil structure, moisture content and reduce competition from weeds. There are, however, mixed reactions to the impacts of these technologies. Opponents argue that some technologies are labor intensive, bind nutrients in the soil and decrease crop yields in the short run. This study examines impacts of sustainable intensification strategies on maize output and household full income using random survey data from Malawi. The study employs multinomial endogenous switching regressions on a typology of farm households to isolate direct causal effects of these technologies. It triangulates the results with reduced form propensity score matching. Average Treatment Effects on the Treated are reported. Results indicate that socioeconomic, geographical and plot characteristics influence adoption decisions. Further, farmers who adopt sustainable agricultural practices such as improved seed and soil and water conservation have consistently more farm output and incomes than non-adopting households.

description: This paper develops a structural econometric model of farmland allcoation that is linked to a market-level demand model. The farmland allocation model accounts for the presence of corner solutions in land-share decisions, which enables using disaggregated data for the estimation, and thereby allows treating prices as exogenous. Under partial equilibrium in the markets of vegetative products, the integrated model is then used to simulate the impacts of climate change on production, prices, agricultural profits and consimer surplus, making explicit the production responses of the micro units used for estimating the land-use model. We apply the method to Israeli data, and obtain negative projections of farm profits and consumer's surplus driven by climate change. Importantly, the effects of climate change on farm profits are significantly smaller compared with the case in which the price-feedback effects on agricultural supply are not accounted for.

description: Global cosmic strings are generically predicted in particle physics beyond the Standard Model, e.g., a post-inflationary global $U(1)$ symmetry breaking which may associate with axion-like dark matter. We demonstrate that although subdominant to Goldstone emission, gravitational waves (GWs) radiated from global strings can be observable with current or future GW detectors. The frequency spectrum of such GWs is also shown to be a powerful tool to probe the Hubble expansion rate of the Universe at times prior to the Big Bang nucleosynthesis where the standard cosmology has yet to be tested.

description: With its incredible range of animal and plant fossils, Skye is the dinosaur capital of Scotland. 161 to 176 million years ago, Middle Jurassic Skye was a subtropical island of beaches and lagoons. Hot, wet, and humid, it was occupied by a wide variety of flora and fauna. This reconstruction, part of the SkyeStory, shows some of this landscape, panning through forest and lagoon to tell the story of the dinosaurs who once roamed Scotland.

 Other included species. Megalopsalis epizephyros new species, Megalopsalis eremiotis new species, Megalopsalis hoggi Pocock 1903a, Megalopsalis leptekes new species, Megalopsalis pilliga new species.
 Diagnosis. Megalopsalis is distinguished from Pantopsalis, Forsteropsalis, Spinicrus and Neopantopsalis by the presence of a well-developed apophysis, longer than wide, on the pedipalpal patella. It differs from Monoscutum, Acihasta, Templar and Australiscutum in having long, slender legs and from Hypomegalopsalis and Tercentenarium in the presence of elongate chelicerae in the male. It also differs from Tercentenarium in having a short glans that is triangular in ventral view.
 Description. MALE. Dorsal prosomal plate denticulate; remainder of dorsum unarmed. Chelicerae elongate, heavily denticulate; cheliceral fingers closing tightly against each other. Pedipalpal patella with well-developed hypersetose mediodistal apophysis; claw with ventral tooth-comb. Trochanters I and II usually with prolateral spines (except in Megalopsalis leptekes). Femora I and II denticulate, femur I usually particularly so; patella and tibia I often denticulate. Penis with elongate shaft and long tendon; well-developed bristle groups at shaft-glans junction. Glans short, triangular in ventral view, bent only slightly dorsad from glans; dorsal side evenly convex, no dorsolateral keel; distal end of glans dorsoventrally flattened. Pores on glans shallowly or deeply recessed without distinct rim. Spiracle with anterior grill of slender spines, often only extending partway across; spines often reticulate (except M. leptekes), with simple or palmate terminations; cluster of lace tubercles present at lateral corner; posterior margin of spiracle unornamented.
 Distribution (fig. 44). Southern Western Australia, southern South Australia, Victoria, eastern New South Wales.
