description: In this paper, we study the trending behaviour of COVID-19 data at country level, and draw attention to some existing econometric tools which are potentially helpful to understand the trend better in future studies. In our empirical study, we find that European countries overall flatten the curves more effectively compared to the other regions, while Asia & Oceania also achieve some success, but the situations are not as optimistic as in Europe. Africa and America are still facing serious challenges in terms of managing the spread of the virus and reducing the death rate. In Africa, the rate of the spread of the virus is slower and the death rate is also lower than those of the other regions. By comparing the performances of different countries, our results on the performance of different countries in managing the speed of the virus agree with Gu et al. (2020). For example, both studies agree that countries such as USA, UK and Italy perform relatively poorly; on the other hand, Australia, China, Japan, Korea, and Singapore perform relatively better.

description: Hot flow anomalies (HFAs) were first discovered in the early 1980s at the bow shock of the Earth. In the 1990s these features were studied, observed and simulated very intensively and many new missions focused the attention to this phenomenon again. Many basic features and the HFA formation mechanism were clarified observationally and using hybrid simulation techniques. We described previous observational, theoretical and simulation results in the research field of HFAs. We introduced HFA observations performed at the Earth, Mars, Venus and Saturn in this paper. We share different observation results of space mission to give an overview to the reader. Cluster multi-spacecraft measurements gave us more observed HFA events and finer, more sophisticated methods to understand them better. In this study, HFAs were studied using observations of the Cluster magnetometer and the Cluster plasma detector aboard the four Cluster spacecraft. Energetic particle measurements (28.2-68.9 keV) were also used to detect and select HFAs. We studied several specific features of tangential discontinuities generating HFAs on the basis of Cluster measurements in the period February-April 2003, December 2005-April 2006 and January-April, 2007, when the separation of spacecraft was large and the Cluster fleet reached the bow shock. We have confirmed the condition for forming HFAs, that the solar wind speed is higher than the average. This condition was also confirmed by simultaneous ACE magnetic field and solar wind plasma observations at the L1 point 1.4 million km upstream of the Earth. The measured and calculated features of HFA events were compared with the results of different previous hybrid simulations. During the whole spring season of 2003, the solar wind speed was higher than the average. Here we checked whether the higher solar wind speed is a real condition of HFA formation also in 2006 and 2007.

description: We show that common short sold capital can explain future four-factor excess return correlation one month ahead, controlling for many pair characteristics, including similarities in size, book-to-market, and momentum. We explore the possible explanations that could give rise to this result. Contrary to the predictions of price pressure, we find that the relationship weakens significantly with stock illiquidity. Instead, consistent with the informed trading hypothesis, the relationship is stronger when short positions originate from hedge funds, from active investors, and from short sellers with high past performance. Stocks connected by common short sellers are associated with non-transitory negative cumulative abnormal returns. Finally, we show that our results can be used to obtain diversifications benefits.
The Two-Loop Scale Dependence of the Static QCD Potential including Quark Masses

description: The interaction potential V(Q^2) between static test charges can be used to define an effective charge $α_V(Q^2)$ and a physically-based renormalization scheme for quantum chromodynamics and other gauge theories. In this paper we use recent results for the finite-mass fermionic corrections to the heavy-quark potential at two-loops to derive the next-to-leading order term for the Gell Mann-Low function of the V-scheme. The resulting effective number of flavors $N_F(Q^2/m^2)$ in the $α_V$ scheme is determined as a gauge-independent and analytic function of the ratio of the momentum transfer to the quark pole mass. The results give automatic decoupling of heavy quarks and are independent of the renormalization procedure. Commensurate scale relations then provide the next-to-leading order connection between all perturbatively calculable observables to the analytic and gauge-invariant $α_V$ scheme without any scale ambiguity and a well defined number of active flavors. The inclusion of the finite quark mass effects in the running of the coupling is compared with the standard treatment of finite quark mass effects in the $\bar{MS}$ scheme.

description: The dynamic process for the two dimensional three state Potts model in the critical domain is simulated by the Monte Carlo method. It is shown that the critical point can rigorously be located from the universal short-time behaviour. This makes it possible to investigate critical dynamics independently of the equilibrium state. From the power law behaviour of the magnetization the exponents $β/ (νz)$ and $1/ (νz)$ are determined.

description: To make biologically useful interpretations of the echo signals from an entomological radar (a radar designed and operated to observe insects in flight), it is necessary to relate basic properties of insects (i.e. their mass, size, and form) to their radio-wave scattering characters–e.g. their radar cross-section (RCS) and its variation with aspect or beam polarization. Measurements of RCSs of live or freshly dead specimens in laboratory rigs have played an important role in establishing such relationships, but it is desirable to develop and validate methods employing numerical computation, using electromagnetic calculation software, as a more widely applicable and generalizable alternative. In such computations, the insect is represented by a model with specified size, form, and composition; composition appears as the complex relative permittivity, with both polarizability (real) and loss (imaginary) terms. As a preliminary to investigating how adequately different types of electromagnetic model perform, we have collected and analysed morphometric data on adult, flight-capable specimens of a wide range of insect species, including many known to be migratory and to fly at heights where they would be detectable by radar. Our analyses reveal that appropriate densities for prolate-spheroid models of flying insects are in the range 0.60–0.76 g cm−3, which is about half that measured for air-free samples of the solids and liquids from which insect bodies are formed. From this, appropriate permittivities for the material filling the model are found to be in the range 7–11 (real component) and 2.0–3.5 (imaginary); again, these are much lower than measured values for pure insect-body material. These results enable construction of simple electromagnetic models of insects in which both spatial dimensions and masses are accurate. Computation of model RCSs and their aspect and polarization variations, and comparison of these with laboratory measurements, will be the topic of a follow-up validation study.

description: Motivated beliefs theory suggests the absorption of information may be biased, especially when it bears consequences for the ego. This paper finds empirical support for that hypothesis in the field, using longitudinal data on teenagers’ memories of mathematics report card grades and administrative data on actual grades. Students: i) make more errors in recalling lower grades; ii) update their academic self-confidence in association with recalled grades rather than actual grades; and iii) have more flattering memories of grades when the survey was administered with a longer delay. The first two results bolster recent research in demonstrating that patterns of motivated recall are robust to within-individual estimation. The last result extends the field literature in showing that a large part of the mechanism for motivated information absorption is memory loss over time. A structural model is used to represent memories as the outcome of a subconscious choice problem, disentangling competing motives to enhance self-confidence and respect reality. The estimated model indicates that the costs of memory distortions decrease as time passes after information transmission, and students with low self-confidence had a greatly diminished preference for inflating self-confidence via memory distortions

description: Evolutionary algorithms and the particle swarm optimization method have been used to predict stable and metastable high hydrides of iron between 150-300 GPa that have not been discussed in previous studies. Cmca FeH5, Pmma FeH6 and P2/c FeH6 contain hydrogenic lattices that result from slight distortions of the previously predicted I4/mmm FeH5 and Cmmm FeH6 structures. Density functional theory calculations show that neither the I4/mmm nor the Cmca symmetry FeH5 phases are superconducting. A P1 symmetry FeH7 phase, which is found to be dynamically stable at 200 and 300 GPa, adds another member to the set of predicted nonmetallic transition metal hydrides under pressure. Two metastable phases of FeH$_8$ are found, and the preferred structure at 300 GPa contains a unique 1-dimensional hydrogenic lattice.

description: Hot flow anomalies (HFAs) are studied using observations of the FGM magnetometer and the CIS plasma detector aboard the four Cluster spacecraft. Previously we studied several specific features of tangential discontinuities on the basis of Cluster measurements in February-April 2003 and discovered a new condition for forming HFAs that is the solar wind speed is higher than the average. However during the whole spring season of 2003, the solar wind speed was higher than average. In this study we analyse HFAs detected in 2007, the year of solar cycle minimum. Our earlier result was confirmed: the higher solar wind speed is a real condition for HFA formation; furthermore this constraint is independent of Schwartz et al. s condition for HFA formation.

description: We estimate the multiple scattering correction factor (Cref), which is an empirical constant required to correct aerosol absorption coefficient (σap) measurements for the multiple scattering artifacts of aethalometer, using a multiplier derived from a linear regression method (CrefLRL). Estimated CrefLRL values during the Cheju ABC Plume Monsoon EXperiment (CAPMEX) are 3.99 (405 nm), 4.48 (532 nm), and 5.46 (781 nm) using aethalometer and 3-wavelength PhotoAcoustic Soot Spectrometer (PASS-3). The difference between these CrefLRL values and those of a previous study (CrefW03) are ˗8.0% (405 nm), 20.1% (532 nm), and 30.2% (781 nm); the difference is greater at larger wavelengths because the linear regression line intercept is larger. CrefW03 varies by up to 121% with increasing aerosol absorption coefficient (σap) at 532 and 781 nm, whereas CrefLRL varies by only 36.8%. CrefW03 and CrefLRL determined during CAPMEX were applied to year-round aethalometer σap measurements (σapW03 and σapLRL, respectively) at Gosan (GSN), Lulin (LLN), and Alert (ALT) stations. σapW03 and σapLRL were compared to concurrent σap measurements from Continuous Light Absorption Photometer (CLAP; σapCLAP). At GSN, the bias difference and root mean square difference of σapW03 from σapCLAP are ˗23.1 and 25.8%; however, those of σapLRL from σapCLAP are ˗9.0 and 17.9%, respectively. LLN and ALT both exhibit a greater difference between σapW03 and σapCLAP than between σapLRL and σapCLAP. This suggests that CrefLRLcan be applied to year-round aethalometer measurements. Furthermore, σapLRL agrees better with σapCLAP than σapW03 in all three environments. Copyright © 2019 American Association for Aerosol Research

description: In this paper, we analyze the evolution of Certificate Transparency (CT) over time and explore the implications of exposing certificate DNS names from the perspective of security and privacy. We find that certificates in CT logs have seen exponential growth. Website support for CT has also constantly increased, with now 33% of established connections supporting CT. With the increasing deployment of CT, there are also concerns of information leakage due to all certificates being visible in CT logs. To understand this threat, we introduce a CT honeypot and show that data from CT logs is being used to identify targets for scanning campaigns only minutes after certificate issuance. We present and evaluate a methodology to learn and validate new subdomains from the vast number of domains extracted from CT logged certificates.

Lunghezza mm. 22, di cui 8 spettano alle zampe posteriori. Colore giallo fulvo; capo punteggiato e cosparso di peli, con orlo posteriore diritto. Antenne brevi; una spezzata, l'altra di 28 articoli corti e larghi; l'ultimo lungo circa il doppio del penultimo. Ocelli 5 in due ﬁle; organo di Tömösvary piccolo.

Coxosterno punteggiato e cosparso di peli, con margine anteriore diritto armato di 6+7 denti mediocri e porodonte. Tergiti 6, 7, 9, 11, 13 con angoli sporgenti; 6 e 7 più larghi che lunghi; 9, 11, 13 lunghi ed acuti. Sterniti pelosi e punteggiati. Pori coxali 4+3, 3+3 (o 2+2), 2+1, 2+2 (o 2+1), di cui sempre 2 grossi e gli altri piccoli. Spinulazione delle zampe:
I paio 00121/00211, II paio 00121/00211, XIV paio 0/0 (mancante); XV paio 10211/01311, oppure /01322 unghia terminale delle zampe 15 doppia; prefemore, femore, tibia, tarsi, con pori disseminati; sul tarso II le setole sono divergenti, non tangenziali. Zampe 15 senza spina coxolaterale. I gonopodi sono biarticolati, senza setole; il secondo articolo è lunghetto, conico, leggermente incavato al margine interno (fig. 6).
La brevità delle antenne, il piccolo numero di ocelli e di pori coxali, la scarsità di spine sulle zampe, la mancanza di peli sui gonopodi fanno dubitare che si tratti di un immaturus; tuttavia, anche come tale, non si saprebbe a quale specie ascriverlo, perchè - data la forma dei gonopodi, corti e biarticolati - appartiene sicuramente al sottogenere Parapolybothrus; di questi, la maggioranza delle specie presenta angoli sporgenti solo ai tergiti 9, 11, 13 ed ha zampe terminali con unghia semplice. Delle poche specie che hanno angoli sporgenti anche ai tergiti 6 e 7, obrovensis Verh. è cieco ed ha gonopodi uniarticolati; electrinus Verh. ha gonopodi più corti, unghia delle zampe terminali semplice, ed è noto solo dall’ Abruzzo; herzegowinensis Verh. Ha pure unghia terminale semplice, gonopodi corti, formati di 2 articoli tondeggianti, di cui l’ultimo è poco sporgente.

description: The theory of the `proton spin' effect proposed in our earlier papers is extended to include the chiral SU(3) symmetry breaking and flavour mixing induced by non-vanishing quark masses in QCD. The theoretical basis is the derivation of exact, unified Goldberger-Treiman (GT) relations valid beyond the chiral limit. The observed suppression in the flavour singlet axial charge $a^0(Q^2)$ is explained by an anomalously small value for the slope of the singlet current correlation function $<0|T~\pl^\m J_{\m 5}^0 ~ \pl^\n J_{\n 5}^0 |0>$, a consequence of the screening of topological charge in the QCD vacuum. Numerical predictions are obtained by evaluating the current correlation functions using QCD spectral sum rules. The results, $a^0(Q^2) = 0.31 \pm 0.02$ and $\int dx ~g_1^p(x,Q^2) = 0.141 \pm 0.005$ (at $Q^2=10 \~\GV^2$), are in good agreement with current experimental data on the polarised proton structure function $g_1^p$.

description: Energy research seeking to influence policy in low- and -middle-income countries (LMICs) is often funded by – and conceptualised by authors in - institutions from high-income countries (HICs). Research agendas and policy recommendations determined in HICs potentially yield the most influence on policymaking for LMICs. This leaves a multidimensional gap in how LMICs frame, contextualise, evidence and enact policy processes. The unique contribution of this paper is analysing the dynamics of prevalent energy research on LMICs through a multi-method approach using bibliometric, network science and regression-based techniques. An innovative data-driven framework was established using a sample of 6,636 papers from the Web of Science database, combined with journal impact data from Scimago Journal Ranking and country economic data from the World Bank. Results show the existence of a cycle of imbalances across research practices. Most papers recommending energy policy for LMICs have a first author based in a HIC, funded by a HIC institution. Total citations of articles on energy policy in LMICs increase with the GDP of the first author’s country (a 1% increase in GDP is correlated with a 0.68% increase in total citations). Funders support authors based in countries of the same income band as them, or higher. Therefore, we recommend revising research practices and HIC funding policies to place local actors and knowledge at the heart of energy policy research, enabling high-impact policymaking in LMICs.

description: The well-known physical equivalence drawn from hole theory is applied in this article. The author suggests to replace, in the part of Feynman diagram which cannot be fixed by experiments, each fermion field operator, and hence fermion propagator, by pairs of equivalent fermion field operators and propagators. The formulation of this article thus yields additional terms which reveal characteristic effects that have not been explored previously; such characteristic effects lead to the appearence of logarithmic running terms and that finite radiative corrections are directly obtained in calculations.

description: We consider a setting in which individuals can purchase information at a cost and form costly links to access information purchased by others. The theory predicts that in every equilibrium of this game the network is a `star'. For small groups, there exists a unique purchase configuration ̶ a pure influencer outcome, in which the hub node purchases information while all others free ride. For large groups, there exists, in addition, a pure connector outcome in which the hub purchases no information and the peripheral players purchase information. We test these predictions on a new experimental platform with asynchronous activity in continuous time.

We start with a baseline setting where subjects only see their own payoffs. We find that subjects create a star network. In small groups, the hub purchases equilibrium level information, but in large groups the hub purchases excessive information and as a result earns low payoffs. To study the reasons for this excessive investment we propose a treatment in which subjects see everyone's payoffs. We find that in small groups the pure influencer out-come obtains but that in large groups the pure-connector outcome now becomes common, suggesting that information and group size interact in powerful ways to shape networks and payoffs.

description: Active agents - like phoretic particles, bacteria, sperm, and cytoskeletal filaments in motility assays - show a large variety of motility-induced collective behaviors, such as aggregation, clustering and phase separation. The behavior of dense suspensions of phoretic particles and of bacteria during biofilm formation is determined by two principle physical mechanisms: (i) volume exclusion (short-range steric repulsion) and (ii) quorum sensing (longer-range reduced propulsion due to alteration of the local chemical environment). To systematically characterize such systems, we study semi-penetrable self-propelled rods in two dimensions, with a propulsion force that decreases with increasing local rod density, by employing Brownian Dynamics simulations. Volume exclusion and quorum sensing both lead to phase separation, however, the structure and rod dynamics vastly differ. Quorum sensing enhances the polarity of the clusters, induces perpendicularity of rods at the cluster borders, and enhances cluster formation. For systems, where the rods essentially become passive at high densities, formation of asters and stripes is observed. Systems of rods with larger aspect ratios show more ordered structures compared to those with smaller aspect ratios, due to their stronger alignment, with almost circular asters for strongly density-dependent propulsion force. With increasing range of the quorum-sensing interaction, the local density decreases, asters become less stable, and polar hedgehog clusters and clusters with domains appear. Our results characterize structure formation and dynamics due to the competition of two qualitatively different interaction mechanisms, steric hindrance and quorum sensing, which are both relevant for engineered phoretic microswimmers as well as for bacteria in biofilm formation.

Optimal Nonlinear Savings Taxation
Creators: name: Brendon, C.
Publisher: name: Faculty of Economics, University of Cambridge
Year: 2022
Subjects: Nonlinear Taxation
Sufficient Statistics
Mirrleesian Taxation
New Dynamic Public Finance

description: This paper analyses the design of optimal nonlinear savings taxation, in a multi-period consumption-savings economy where consumers face persistent, uninsurable shocks to the marginal value that they place on consuming. Its main contributions are: (a) to show that shocks of this kind generically justify positive marginal savings taxes, and (b) to characterise these taxes by reference to a limited number of sufficient statistics. The method for obtaining this characterisation is generalisable, and provides a roadmap for reconnecting ‘Mirrleesian’ and ‘sufficient statistics’ approaches to dynamic taxation. Intuitively, dynamic asymmetric information problems imply significant restrictions on intertemporal consumption elasticities. These restrictions keep sufficient statistics representations manageable, despite the multi-dimensional choice setting.
How the inter-electronic potential Ansätze affect the bound state solutions of a planar two-electron quantum dot model

description: The model of a two-electron quantum dot, confined to move in a two dimensional flat space, in the presence of an external harmonic oscillator potential, is revisited for a specific purpose. Indeed, eigenvalues and eigenstates of the bound state solutions are obtained for any oscillation frequency considering both the $1/r$ and $\ln r$ Ansätze for inter-electronic Coulombic-like potentials in 2$D$. Then, it is pointed out that the significative difference between measurable quantities predicted from these two potentials can shed some light on the problem of space dimensionality as well as on the physical nature of the potential itself.

description: China is the largest driver of growth in the global building sector. The longstanding construction boom across China has generated a massive flow of materials with significant associated embodied energy consumption and carbon emissions. Despite the serious implications for global emissions, there exist a very limited number of macro-level studies on embodied energy of Chinese buildings, with even fewer exploring future scenarios. There is therefore little in the way of an evidence base to offer policy makers. We develop a probabilistic model to forecast the possible trajectories of embodied energy of residential buildings over the medium to long term in the Chinese urban context. Our results provide clear evidence to substantiate the importance of embodied energy of new construction, which we find to be over 0.3 times the operational energy of existing stock between 2010 and 2018. If current trajectories are followed, embodied energy is likely to peak around 2027, with a 95% credible interval ranging from 87 to 283 Mtce (61 to 198 Mtoe) and a mean of 170 Mtce (119 Mtoe). We show that building lifetime has a substantial impact on future annual and cumulative embodied energy. Our findings reinforce the need to take a whole-life perspective to formulate policies addressing building energy as part of China's efforts to meet the announced overarching target of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060.

Nuclear Saturation with in-Medium Meson Exchange Interactions

description: We show that the assumption of dropping meson masses together with conventional many-body effects, implemented in the relativistic Dirac-Brueckner formalism, explains nuclear saturation. We use a microscopic model for correlated $2π$ exchange and include the standard many-body effects on the in-medium pion propagation, which initially increase the attractive nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) potential with density. For the vector meson exchanges in both the $ππ$ and $NN$ sector, we assume Brown-Rho scaling which---in concert with `chiral' $ππ$ contact interactions---reduces the attraction at higher densities.

A Spatiotemporal Equilibrium Model of Migration and Housing Interlinkages

Subjects: location choice
joint determination of migration flows and house prices
spatiotemporal impulse response analysis

productivity and land supply shocks
California
Texas and Florida

description: This paper develops and solves a spatiotemporal equilibrium model in which regional wages and house prices are jointly determined with location-to-location migration flows. The agent’s optimal location choice and the resultant migration process are shown to be Markovian, with the transition probabilities across all location pairs given as non-linear functions of wage and housing cost differentials, endogenously responding to migration flows. The model can be used for the analysis of spatial distribution of population, income, and house prices, as well as for spatiotemporal impulse response analysis. The model is estimated on a panel of 48 mainland U.S. states and the District of Columbia using the training sample (1976-1999), and shown to fit the data well over the evaluation sample (2000-2014). The estimated model is then used to analyze the size and speed of spatial spill-over effects by computing spatiotemporal impulse responses of positive productivity and land-supply shocks to California, Texas, and Florida. Our simulation results show that states with a lower level of land-use regulation can benefit more from positive state-specific productivity shocks; and positive land-supply shocks are much more effective in states, such as California, that are subject to more stringent land-use regulations.
Joan Robinson in 1942, an encounter between Marxian Economics and Macroeconomics

Marxian Economics
Rate of Profit
Exploitation

description: This paper revisits why Joan Robinson turned to Karl Marx in 1942 and which insights from Marxian economics she sought to incorporate into her later works, while commenting on the legacies of this encounter and how was received by some her of contemporaries. By the end of the 1930s, Robinson wanted to bring academic and Marxian economics together in a search for a more realist theory of the rate of profit and income distribution, and clarifications on Keynes’s concept of full employment, the nature of technical progress and a long-period theory within the Keynesian framework. The result, An Essay on Marxian Economics (1942), was her most important work in terms of laying the foundations of her enduring challenge to the orthodox economics. Here she relied on Marxian insights to escape Marshallian orthodoxy. It is the story of how the originator of imperfect competition pushed further into a theory of exploitation.

description: Why has geographical political polarisation increased in recent times? We propose a theoretical social learning mechanism whereby policy preferences become more homogeneous within geographical units, yet increasingly heterogeneous between units over time as voters become better informed on the views of those in their vicinity. To study our model’s predictions, we exploit the delayed implementation of Brexit and its salience in the elections following the 2016 referendum. Analysing constituency-level longitudinal-data, we find that voters updated their Brexit views after observing the referendum’s local results, and acted upon their new beliefs in the following elections. We document a two percentage-point relative decrease in the (anti-Brexit) Liberal Democrat vote share in constituencies where Leave narrowly won, mirrored by an increase for the Conservatives. Our findings have implications for how group-based identities form more broadly.
Pinning of a solid--liquid--vapour interface by stripes of obstacles

description: We use a macroscopic Hamiltonian approach to study the pinning of a solid--liquid--vapour contact line on an array of equidistant stripes of obstacles perpendicular to the liquid. We propose an estimate of the density of pinning stripes for which collective pinning of the contact line happens. This estimate is shown to be in good agreement with Langevin equation simulation of the macroscopic Hamiltonian. Finally we introduce a 2--dimensional mean field theory which for small strength of the pinning stripes and for small capillary length gives an excellent description of the averaged height of the contact line.
