description: Las memorias de sostenibilidad se utilizan, conjuntamente, como una herramienta de comunicación de la RSC y rendición de cuentas a las partes interesadas y a toda la sociedad. No obstante, reciben numerosas críticas en ambos sentidos. Dada su importancia, se desarrolla una metodología de evaluación de la capacidad de comunicación de las memorias de sostenibilidad de las empresas del sector agroalimentario español, utilizando el Proceso Analítico en Red (Analytic Network Process, ANP). Los resultados permiten determinar las debilidades y oportunidades de mejora de cada memoria, así como, de la relación de la empresa con sus respectivos grupos de interés.

description: In the context of centenary of World War I, the focus of this text are results and strategy of cultural diplomacy which were conducted by a leader of the Serbian military band officially called the Band of the Cavalry Division (Muzika Konjicke divizije). The stage for these activities was in North Africa (1916-1918), where part of the Serbian army recuperated from retreat across the mountains of Albania. This paper is a result of an extensive archival research of the National Library of Serbia's collections and periodicals published during the Great War in North Africa. The article also sheds light on the work of a musician, Dragutin F. Pokomi. This paper also highlights key points in the fruitful encounter between Serbian military musicians and the multi-layered cultures of the Maghreb countries and examines the importance of the BCD's promotion of Serbian culture overseas, as a type of cultural diplomacy.

description: Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) has emerged to deal with the selection and configuration of algorithms for a given learning task. With the progression of AutoML, several effective methods were introduced, especially for traditional classification and regression problems. Apart from the AutoML success, several issues remain open. One issue, in particular, is the lack of ability of AutoML methods to deal with different types of data. Based on this scenario, this paper approaches AutoML for multi-label classification (MLC) problems. In MLC, each example can be simultaneously associated to several class labels, unlike the standard classification task, where an example is associated to just one class label. In this work, we provide a general comparison of five automated multi-label classification methods -- two evolutionary methods, one Bayesian optimization method, one random search and one greedy search -- on 14 datasets and three designed search spaces. Overall, we observe that the most prominent method is the one based on a canonical grammar-based genetic programming (GGP) search method, namely Auto-MEKA$_{GGP}$. Auto-MEKA$_{GGP}$ presented the best average results in our comparison and was statistically better than all the other methods in different search spaces and evaluated measures, except when compared to the greedy search method.

A depressing story? : homicide rates in late Victorian Toronto
Creators: name: Reimer, William
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The slogan "peace, order, and good government," associated with the debates surrounding Canadian Confederation, was part of a broad nineteenth-century impulse that emphasized both the importance of the general well being of the community and the importance of the individual. While it is perhaps difficult to isolate this humanitarian impulse, it can be demarcated by a number of developments in nineteenth-century Canada. These include the restricted use of capital punishment, the abolition of slavery, the expansion of the voting franchise, and decreasing levels of interpersonal violence. Phillip S. Gorski, while accepting Elias’ overall thesis, emphasizes the disciplinary power that the Reformation unleashed that had its earliest and greatest impact on the Calvinist states of England, Netherlands, and Prussia. While the resultant social order cannot be easily measured, the level of crime is a rough indicator of a culture’s domestic order and stability. Gorski argues that murder rates, which provide the most reliable indicators of crime, were dropping more quickly in England and Holland than in the surrounding European countries during the Early Modem period. Most historians of crime extend this drop into the nineteenth-century and contend that these relatively low rates of homicide continued until beyond the mid-point of the twentieth-century. The present thesis argues that this disciplinary impulse, as measured by murder rates, can be extended to late nineteenth-century Canada, and in particular to Toronto. Late nineteenth-century Toronto is as likely a place as any to test the thesis of the existence of a Protestant disciplinary impulse. By any measure late nineteenth-century Toronto was steeped in a broad evangelical Protestant culture that defies the category of "sectarian." By examining reports of all homicide cases that appear in the Toronto newspaper The Globe, I conclude that Toronto indeed had a very low incidence of homicide. In the final section of the thesis I examine the religious affiliation of prisoners in the Kingston Penitentiary and the Central Prison, by means of Canada Census data, and conclude that Methodist, Presbyterian, and Baptists were significantly under-represented while Anglicans and Roman Catholics were significantly over-represented.

description: Concentration and consolidation processes manifesting themselves in takeovers of industry enterprises by domestic and international investors take place in the Polish food industry. These processes have led to a considerable concentration in some branches of food industry, particularly in the production of beer, wine and tobacco products. Nevertheless the degree of concentration in the food industry is substantially lower than that in the whole of processing industry. It results from the specificity of production of food being characterized, among others, by a relatively small capital intensity combined with a great labour intensity, a strong linkage of food-processing plants with local markets, a diversity of products and short series of production. / Synopsis. W polskim przemyśle spożywczym trwają procesy koncentracji i konsolidacji przejawiające się w przejmowaniu przedsiębiorstw tego przemysłu przez krajowych i międzynarodowych inwestorów. Doprowadziły one do znacznej koncentracji w niektórych działach przemysłu spożywczego, a szczególnie w produkcji piwa, wina oraz wyrobów tytoniowych. Jednak stopień koncentracji przemysłu spożywczego jest wyraźnie mniejszy niż całego przemysłu przetwórczego. Wynika to ze specyfiki produkcji żywności charakteryzującej się między innymi relatywnie małą majątkochłonnością i dużą pracochłonnością, silnym powiązaniem zakładów przetwórczych z rynkami lokalnymi oraz różnorodnością asortymentową i krótkimi seriami produkcji.

description: In this work, we study the ($S$, $P$ and $D$)-wave $K^+K^-$ contributions to $B\to KKK$ decays in the perturbative QCD approach at leading order. Within the two-meson wave functions describing the nonperturbative dynamics in the kaon-pair for different waves, we calculate the branching fractions and the direct $CP$ asymmetries of these decay modes in the corresponding resonance regions. Most of our numerical results are well consistent with the current measurements. We note that the narrow-width approximation is invalid in the quasi-two-body decays $B\to Kf_0(980)\to KKK$. For other decays, under the narrow-width approximation we can extract the branching fractions of the corresponding two-body decays involving the intermediate resonant states, and the related branching fractions agree with the current experimental data well. Furthermore, we also predict the corresponding quasi-two-body decays $B\to Kπ^+π^-$, which are expected to be measured in the ongoing LHCb and Belle-II experiments.

description: A portion of light scalar dark matter, especially axions, may organize into gravitationally bound clumps (stars) and be present in large number in the galaxy today. It is therefore of utmost interest to determine if there are novel observational signatures of this scenario. Work has shown that for moderately large axion-photon couplings, such clumps can undergo parametric resonance into photons, for clumps above a critical mass $M^{\star}_c$ determined precisely by some of us in Ref. [1]. In order to obtain a clump above the critical mass in the galaxy today would require mergers. In this work we perform full 3-dimensional simulations of pairs of axion clumps and determine the conditions under which mergers take place through the emission of scalar waves, including analyzing head-on and non-head-on collisions, phase dependence, and relative velocities. Consistent with other work in the literature, we find that the final mass from the merger $M^{\star}_{\text{final}}\approx 0.7(M^{\star}_1+M^{\star}_2)$ is larger than each of the original clump masses (for $M^{\star}_1\sim M^{\star}_2$). Hence, it is possible for sub-critical mass clumps to merge and become super-critical and therefore undergo parametric resonance into photons. We find that mergers are expected to be kinematically allowed in the galaxy today for high Peccei-Quinn scales, which is strongly suggested by unification ideas, although the collision rate is small. While mergers can happen for axions with lower Peccei-Quinn scales due to statistical fluctuations in relative velocities, as they have a high collision rate. We estimate the collision and merger rates within the Milky Way galaxy today. We find that a merger leads to a flux of energy on earth that can be appreciable and we mention observational search strategies.

description: A new explicitly correlated functional form for expanding the wave function of an N-particle system with arbitrary angular momentum and parity is presented. We develop the projection-based approach, numerically exploited in our previous work [J. Chem. Phys. 149, 184105 (2018)], to explicitly correlated Gausssians with one-axis shifted centers and derive the matrix elements for the Hamiltonian and the angular momentum operators by analytically solving the integral projection operator. Variational few-body calculations without assuming the Born-Oppenheimer approximation are presented for several rotationally excited states of three- and four-particle systems. We show how the new formalism can be used as a unified framework for high-accuracy calculations of properties of small atoms and molecules.

description: Recent high spatial and spectral resolution investigations of the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) have found significant evidence for small-scale variations in the interstellar gas on scales less than or equal to 1 pc. To better understand the nature of small-scale variations in the ISM, we have used the KPNO WIYN Hydra multi-object spectrograph, which has a mapping advantage over the single-axis, single-scale limitations of studies using high proper motion stars and binary stars, to obtain moderate resolution (~12 km/s) interstellar Na I D absorption spectra of 172 stars toward the double open cluster h and Chi Persei. All of the sightlines toward the 150 stars with spectra that reveal absorption from the Perseus spiral arm show different interstellar Na I D absorption profiles in the Perseus arm gas. Additionally, we have utilized the KPNO Coude Feed spectrograph to obtain high-resolution (~3 km/s) interstellar Na I D absorption spectra of 24 of the brighter stars toward h and Chi Per. These spectra reveal an even greater complexity in the interstellar Na I D absorption in the Perseus arm gas and show individual components changing in number, velocity, and strength from sightline to sightline. If each of these individual velocity components represents an isolated cloud, then it would appear that the ISM of the Perseus arm gas consists of many small clouds. Although the absorption profiles vary even on the smallest scales probed by these high-resolution data (~30";~0.35pc), our analysis reveals that some interstellar Na I D absorption components from sightline to sightline are related, implying that the ISM toward h and Chi Per is probably comprised of sheets of gas in which we detect variations due to differences in the local physical conditions of the gas.

description: A simple tight-binding model is constructed for the description of the electronic structure of some Ce-based filled skutterudite compounds showing an energy gap or pseudogap behavior. Assuming band-diagonal electron interactions on this tight-binding model, the optical conductivity spectrum is calculated by applying the second-order self-consistent perturbation theory to treat the electron correlation. The correlation effect is found to be of great importance on the description of the temperature dependence of the optical conductivity. The rapid disappearance of an optical gap with increasing temperature is obtained as observed in the optical experiment for Ce-based filled-skutterudite compounds.

description: At the height of political, military and diplomatic missions in the Great War, musicians from Kingdom of Serbia and all participating countries successfully fought their battles, in order to respond to needs of the new context. In several interesting activities of the musicians from the Kingdom of Serbia for this presentation we singled out the activities of the one of the most prominent music personality from mentioned country − Stanislav Binički. This prominent figure of pre-war music life continued with numerous activities from the very start of the war, especially as a conductor of the King's Guard Orchestra (KGO) and also a person in charge for all military music units of the Serbian Army, but also as a composer. As his orchestra KGO was devoted to official presentation of Serbian culture abroad, in this presentation special focus need to be put on their tour in France in September 1916, and many successful concerts in Thessaloniki with many Serbian musicians in exile as soloist. In this presentation, we will address Binički's military music activities with his composing and organizing efforts, at two functional levels: preservation of national identity and cultural diplomacy. Lastly, this presentation is a result of the years of archival and periodical research in many institutions, from Military Archive of Serbia to National library and Theater Museum in Serbia etc, and as such, is connected to several previous papers of an author.
title: Life Experiences of Street Children in Bulawayo: Implications for Policy and Practice
Creators: name: Ndlovu, Ian
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2015

description: In the period between 2000 and 2015 much has been written about Zimbabwe’s political and economic problems with very little mention of Zimbabwe’s children, or indeed street children. In this study I explore the experience of street children in Zimbabwe’s second largest city, Bulawayo. The study explores the work and activities that street children engage in as they negotiate their way through public and private spaces. A consideration is given to how the street children’s need for space and their sense of place becomes part of an acquired identity that they establish through negotiation or imposition by others. Their experiences are presented in their words in order to capture who they are and how they navigate living on the margins of society; crossing physical as well as social and moral boundaries. The study employed an ethnographic approach and was informed by the understanding of children as autonomous social actors. It explores some of the conceptual terrain necessary for a study of the life experiences of street children in Bulawayo in the context of their day to day activities and claims for space and places. Their image, journeys and how they project themselves into the future emerges from their interactions amongst themselves and their immediate environment. The study explores whether and how a child-centred model of practice would be possible to use in relation to street children and the implications for policy.

description: Coherent Anti Stokes Raman Scattering (CARS) offers many advantages for nonlinear bio-imaging, thanks to its sub-cellular spatial resolution and unique chemical specificity. Its working principle requires two incident pulsed laser beams with distinct frequencies to be focused in space and time, which focus quality however rapidly deteriorates when propagating at large depths in biological tissues. The depth limits of CARS and the capability of wavefront correction to overcome these limits are currently unknown. In this work we exploit the spectral correlation properties of the transmission matrix of a scattering medium in a pulsed regime, to recover coherent focusing for two distant incident CARS wavelengths which propagation is initially uncorrelated. Using wavefront shaping with a single spatial light modulator, we recover CARS generation through thick mice spinal cord tissues where initially no signal is measurable due to scattering, and demonstrate point scanning over large field of views of tens of micrometers.

description: We study fluctuations of spin-polarized currents in a three-terminal spin-valve system consisting of a diffusive normal metal wire connected by tunnel junctions to three ferromagnetic terminals. Based on a spin-dependent Boltzmann-Langevin equation, we develop a semiclassical theory of charge and spin currents and the correlations of the currents fluctuations. In the three terminal system, we show that current fluctuations are strongly affected by the spin-flip scattering in the normal metal and the spin polarizations of the terminals, which may point in different directions. We analyze the dependence of the shot noise and the cross-correlations on the spin-flip scattering rate in the full range of the spin polarizations and for different magnetic configurations. Our result demonstrate that noise measurements in multi-terminal devices allow to determine the spin-flip scattering rate by changing the polarizations of ferromagnetic terminals.

description: The purpose of this study is an attempt to show the influence of farm economic size on the quantity and quality features of the manpower resources. The valuation of the quantity features was based on the number of fully employed workers working on farm. To valuate the quality features of the manpower resources the level of general and agricultural education was analyzed. The analysis showed that the most favourable structure of education featured farms which had 20 ESU of economic size and above. / Synopsis. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest próba ukazania wpływu wielkości ekonomicznej na cechy ilościowe i jakościowe zasobów pracy. Oceny cech ilościowych dokonano na podstawie liczby osób pełnozatrudnionych pracujących w gospodarstwach. Dla oceny cech jakościowych zasobów pracy przeprowadzono analizę poziomu wykształcenia ogólnego i rolniczego. Przeprowadzona analiza wykazała, że najkorzystniejszą strukturą wykształcenia wyróżniały się gospodarstwa o wielkości ekonomicznej 20 ESU i powyżej.
Critical behavior of weakly interacting bosons: A functional renormalization group approach

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We present a detailed investigation of the momentum-dependent self-energy Sigma(k) at zero frequency of weakly interacting bosons at the critical temperature T_c of Bose-Einstein condensation in dimensions 3<=D<4. Applying the functional renormalization group, we calculate the universal scaling function for the self-energy at zero frequency but at all wave vectors within an approximation which truncates the flow equations of the irreducible vertices at the four-point level. The self-energy interpolates between the critical regime k << k_c and the short-wavelength regime k >> k_c, where k_c is the crossover scale. In the critical regime, the self-energy correctly approaches the asymptotic behavior Sigma(k) \propto k^{2 - eta}, and in the short-wavelength regime the behavior is Sigma(k) \propto k^{2(D-3)} in D>3. In D=3, we recover the logarithmic divergence Sigma(k) \propto ln(k/k_c) encountered in perturbation theory. Our approach yields the crossover scale k_c as well as a reasonable estimate for the critical exponent eta in D=3. From our scaling function we find for the interaction-induced shift in T_c in three dimensions, Delta T_c / T_c = 1.23 a n^{1/3}, where a is the s-wave scattering length and n is the density, in excellent agreement with other approaches. We also discuss the flow of marginal parameters in D=3 and extend our truncation scheme of the renormalization group equations by including the six- and eight-point vertex, which yields an improved estimate for the anomalous dimension eta \approx 0.0513. We further calculate the constant lim_{k->0} Sigma(k)/k^{2-eta} and find good agreement with recent Monte-Carlo data.

Behavioral Responses to Special Tax Regimes for the Super-Rich: Insights from Swiss Rich Lists

Subjects: super-rich

description: We collect, digitize, and supplement Swiss rich lists published in the “BILANZ” business magazine since 1989, to gain new insights on the structure and dynamics of top wealth in Switzerland. We show that 60% of the super-rich are heirs—a fraction twice as large as in the US, where many super-rich are self-made—and that half of the super-rich residing in Switzerland are foreign-born. Based on this new dataset, we estimate the sensitivity of the location choice of super-rich foreigners to a preferential tax scheme, under which wealthy foreigners are taxed on their expenses, rather than their true income and wealth. We are the first to evaluate this infamous policy (which bears similarities with “non-dom” taxation in the UK or Italy), and show that when some Swiss cantons abolished this practice, their stock of super-rich foreigners dropped by 30% as a consequence. We find no response for the unaffected Swiss super-rich.

description: Financial support of development of agriculture and rural areas within the framework of aid instruments of the European Union has enormous importance because of needs for investments in this sector. To the most important benefits of agricultural-food sector from the Polish accession to the European Union the following can be counted: entering into the group of states with the highest in the world level of support for agriculture, entering a system of direct payments and a system of support for the process of transformation of agricultural holdings. Particularly valuable has turned out the financial support for the investments in agricultural holdings contributing to improvements in agricultural income, conditions of production, quality of production, environmental protection and to creation of proper conditions of maintenance of animals. Beginning from 2004 Polish farmers had a chance to use the European Union financial support within the framework of three forms of support: direct payments within the common agricultural policy, financial support within the plan of development of rural areas, absorption of means from SPO "Restructuring and modernization of the food sector and development of rural areas". / Synopsis. Wsparcie finansowe rozwoju rolnictwa i obszarów wiejskich w ramach programów pomocowych Unii Europejskiej ma ogromne znaczenie ze wzglĘdu na potrzeby inwestycyjne w tym sektorze. Analiza zgromadzonego materiału badawczego wykazała, że do najważniejszych korzyści dla sektora rolno-żywnościowego z racji akcesji Polski do Unii Europejskiej należy zaliczyć wejście do grupy państw o najwyższym na świecie poziomie wsparcia rolnictwa, objęcie systemem dopłat bezpośrednich oraz wsparcie procesu przekształceń gospodarstw rolnych. Szczególnie cenna okazała się pomoc finansowa w realizacji inwestycji w gospodarstwach rolnych, przyczyniając się do poprawy dochodu rolniczego, warunków produkcji, poprawy jakości produkcji, ochrony środowiska naturalnego oraz stworzenia właściwych warunków utrzymania zwierząt. Począwszy od 2004 roku polscy rolnicy mieli możliwość skorzystania z unijnej pomocy finansowej w ramach trzech form wsparcia. Były to płatności bezpośrednie w ramach Wspólnej Polityki Rolnej, środki finansowe w ramach Planu Rozwoju Obszarów Wiejskich, absorpcja środków SPO „Restrukturyzacja i modernizacja sektora żywnościowego i rozwój obszarów wiejskich”.

description: Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit ist die Entscheidung zu treffen, eine optimale Variante für die Neugestaltung der Kreuzung an der Landstraße I-7 bei km 9+200 zu finden, um die bestehenden Probleme zu lösen. Die bestehnde Kreuzung bei km 9+200 der Landstraße I-7 "Silistra-Schumen" befindet sich ausserhalb einer Ortschaft und verbindet drei Abschnitte verschiedener Straßenkategorien (Landstraße I-7, Landstraße II-21 und Landstraße III-213) bei annähernd gleicher Verkehrsbelastung aus jeder Richtung. Die häufigsten Probleme sind: - Hohe Unfallzahlen - Verkehrsbehinderungen (Stau) - Lärmbelastung - Luftverschmutzung Um die Situation für die Verkehrsteilnehmer und Anrainer zu verbessern, soll eine geeignete Variante für die Neugestaltung der Kreuzung gefunden werden.
description: Within the scope of this master thesis, a decision has to be made to find an optimal solution for the redesign of the intersection at the country road I-7 at km 9 + 200 in order to solve the existing problems. The existing intersection at km 9+200 of the country road I-7 between Silistra and Shumen is located out of town and connect 3 sections of different type of street categories (country road I-7, country road II-21 and country road III-213) with approximately the same traffic congestion from each direction. The most common problems are: - High accidents rates - Traffic obstruction - Noise exposure - Air pollution In order to improve the situation for road users and residents, a suitable opportunity for the redesign of the intersection has to be found.
