description: The European Green Deal, initiated by the EU Commission, is a package of measures aimed at decarbonization and sustainable economic development with the goal of making the European Union climate neutral by 2050. To achieve this goal, the emission reductions target must be increased from 40 percent to 65 percent compared to 1990 levels, as the model calculations in this Weekly Report show. Fossil and nuclear power plants must be completely substituted with 100 percent renewable energy sources. Compared to the current course, over 60 billion tons of CO2 could be saved as a result. Expansive investments must be made to build a solid basis for the current national and EU-level economic stimulus packages. Investments in renewable energy require around 3,000 billion euros; however, they are accompanied by savings of almost 2,000 billion euros from not importing fossil fuels. The German EU Council Presidency (its term lasting from July to December 2020) faces the challenge of persuading the Member States to adopt a common strategy for implementing the European Green Deal as part of their respective economic stimulus packages.

description: Currently, the European Commission intends to increase the EU’s 2030 climate target. Instead of a 40 percent target, greenhouse gas emissions would be reduced by 50 to 55 percent compared to 1990 levels; the European Parliament is even considering a 65-percent reduction. The European Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) sectors should make an appropriate contribution to this reduction. However, decisive for limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, as in accordance with the Paris Agreement, is compliance with a consistent emissions budget, the total amount of cumulative greenhouse gas emissions. For the EU ETS, compliance with an emissions budget requires adjusting the emission cap. This Weekly Report derives the minimum requirement for emission reductions in the EU ETS sectors in line with a globally cost-effective emissions budget. The results show the cap must be urgently adjusted to ensure the minimum European contribution to limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Otherwise, beginning in 2030, drastic measures will be necessary to reduce emissions. At the same time, national coal phase-out plans and a more ambitious European energy policy make it possible to approximate the cost-effective pathway by adjusting the cap, without additional reduction requirements for the EU ETS sectors.

description: This paper derives exponential concentration inequalities and polynomial moment inequalities for the spectral norm of a random matrix. The analysis requires a matrix extension of the scalar concentration theory developed by Sourav Chatterjee using Stein's method of exchangeable pairs. When applied to a sum of independent random matrices, this approach yields matrix generalizations of the classical inequalities due to Hoeffding, Bernstein, Khintchine and Rosenthal. The same technique delivers bounds for sums of dependent random matrices and more general matrix-valued functions of dependent random variables.

description: Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are powerful tracers of star-forming galaxies. We have defined a homogeneous subsample of 69 Swift GRB-selected galaxies spanning a very wide redshift range. Special attention has been devoted to making the sample optically unbiased through simple and well-defined selection criteria based on the high-energy properties of the bursts and their positions on the sky. Thanks to our extensive follow-up observations, this sample has now achieved a comparatively high degree of redshift completeness, and thus provides a legacy sample, useful for statistical studies of GRBs and their host galaxies. In this paper we present the survey design and summarize the results of our observing program conducted at the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT) aimed at obtaining the most basic properties of galaxies in this sample, including a catalog of R and Ks magnitudes and redshifts. We detect the host galaxies for 80 % of the GRBs in the sample, although only 42 % have Ks-band detections, which confirms that GRB-selected host galaxies are generally blue. The sample is not uniformly blue, however, with two extremely red objects detected. Moreover, galaxies hosting GRBs with no optical/NIR afterglows, whose identification therefore relies on X-ray localizations, are significantly brighter and redder than those with an optical/NIR afterglow. Our spectroscopic campaign has resulted in 77 % now having redshift measurements, with a median redshift of 2.14 +- 0.18. TOUGH alone includes 17 detected z > 2 Swift GRB host galaxies suitable for individual and statistical studies. Seven hosts have detections of the Ly-alpha emission line and we can exclude an early indication that Ly-alpha emission is ubiquitous among GRB hosts, but confirm that Ly-alpha is stronger in GRB-selected galaxies than in flux-limited samples of Lyman break galaxies.

description: This paper analyzes and explains various algorithms for integer factorization, including their implementation in Python. For the purpose of faster excution time, the Cython module, a statically typed compiler for Python, was used along with the gmpy2 library in order to support big and multiple precision integers as well as compatibility for Cython. Initially, the RSA system is briefly mentioned along with the importance of factoring large integers for its security as well as for communicating via insecure means such as the internet. Next, basic algorithms such as trial division, Fermat's method, and Pollard Rho are analyzed, as well as the Quadratic Sieve, which is the fastest factorization algorithm for numbers with around 100 decimal digits.

The calculations are carried out using a moving computational domain, which greatly reduces advection errors and allows for much longer time-steps than a fixed grid. We calculate the angular momentum flux and the torque density as a function of radius and compare them with analytical predictions. We discuss the quasi-steady state after 100 orbits and the prospects for gap formation by low mass planets.

The role of urban real estate in Jesuit finances and networks between Europe and China, 1612-1778
Creators: name: Vermote, Frederik
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: This dissertation examines the role of urban real estate in the finances and networks of the Jesuit missions in China. Starting in 1612, when Jesuit missionaries working in China envisioned for the first time a strategy for making the missions financially independent from Europe, I will investigate how and why it took until the second half of the eighteenth century for the Christian communities in China to become financially self-sustaining. The procurators and their subordinate treasurers, the Jesuits primarily in charge of the financial management of the missions, are the subject of this dissertation. How did they combine the resources and personnel extracted from Europe, India, and China to establish an autonomous financial foundation for the missions in China? This dissertation argues that their most reliable source of income was revenue from investments in urban real estate. The arc of this dissertation spans both the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries examining the Portuguese and the French Jesuit missions in China. Through a close analysis of Jesuit procurators’ activities and personal networks this dissertation will assert that while they realized the necessity of economic integration in the global missions early on, procurators encountered great problems in realizing this goal. As such, this dissertation recognizes the limitations of global networks by exploring the role of global contact and the circulation of missionaries, money, and mail and by looking at the Jesuit search for financial opportunities in the local and regional economy to become self-sustaining communities. Only by studying the Jesuit finances in China over a time-span of 166 years does the relationship between Longobardo’s strategic planning for financial independence in 1612 and the French Jesuits’ budget for their missions in Beijing in 1778 become fully clear. This dissertation’s most important contribution is in charting the growing importance of revenue from investments in urban real estate. Ironically, just as the missions in China had begun to galvanize local resource networks largely independent of the central organization of the Society, European monarchs expelled the Jesuits from their realms and Rome finally dissolved the Jesuits as a Society.

description: The coronavirus recession has left deep marks on the German economy and despite economic policy action, it is likely to heal only slowly. The partial easing of the lockdown and a gradual revival of global value chains are generating positive stimuli, but massive income losses will curb demand for some time to come. The German Federal Government was able to avoid the worst by implementing measures to stabilize the domestic economy, but it can do little to counteract a slump in foreign demand. This decline in foreign demand reflects the devastating effects of the recession on the labor markets of many countries. Overall, economic recovery will be slow in Germany: The German economy cannot compensate for a decline of 9.4 percent in GDP in 2020, even with GDP growth of 3.0 percent in 2021.

description: The consequences of the ongoing 2020 coronavirus pandemic are leaving deep marks on the global economy. In the first quarter of 2020, global production sank by 15.5 percent over the course of the worldwide lockdown. Since containment measures in many countries were mainly implemented during the second quarter of 2020, the slump in the first half of 2020 is likely to be even more severe overall. Due to the expansive containment measures in many countries and massive limitations on production and sales from March 2020 to summer 2020, DIW Berlin is lowering its forecast for the year drastically from 2.5 percent to -4.9 percent. It is also likely that the significant production losses and the serious slump in the service sector will be unable to be compensated for in 2021. However, for 2021, DIW Berlin expects an increase in global production of 5.5 percentage points. Of course, the possibility of further coronavirus waves poses risks and trade conflict escalations cannot be ruled out conclusively.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study the relationship between charge density (ρ) and chemical potential (μ) for an array of Lorentz invariant 3 + 1 dimensional holographic field theories with the minimal structure of a conserved charge. The systems considered include Dp-Dq probe brane constructions and probe and backreacted 'bottom-up' models with gauge and scalar fields. In all cases, at large density, the relationship is well modelled by a power law behaviour of the form ρ $\propto$ μ^α. A variety of powers α are found in the brane systems while in most of the bottom-up models α is determined by the underlying conformal symmetry. Further, it is demonstrated that basic thermodynamical and causality constraints demand α \geq 1, a condition that was realized in each system considered.

description: We theorize the spin Hall effect of light (SHEL) on a nano-metal film and demonstrate it experimentally via weak measurements. A general propagation model to describe the relationship between the spin-orbit coupling and the thickness of the metal film is established. It is revealed that the spin-orbit coupling in the SHEL can be effectively modulated by adjusting the thickness of the metal film, and the transverse displacement is sensitive to the thickness of metal film in certain range for horizontal polarization light. Importantly, a large negative transverse shift can be observed as a consequence of the combined contribution of the ratio and the phase difference of Fresnel coefficients.

description: We propose a new model of a gravastar in (2+1) anti-de Sitter space-time. This new three dimensional configuration has three different regions with different equations of state: [I] Interior: 0 \leq r < r_1, ρ= -p ; [II] Shell: r_1 \leq r < r_2, ρ= p; [III] Exterior: r_2 < r, ρ= p =0. The outer region of this gravastar corresponds to the exterior (2+1) anti-de Sitter space-time, popularly known as the BTZ space-time. Like BTZ model, Λis taken to be negative, which at the junction turns out to be positive as required by stability of gravastar and mathematical consistency. After investigating the Interior space-time, Shell and Exterior space-time we have highlighted different physical features in terms of Length and Energy, Entropy, and Junction conditions of the spherical distribution. It is shown that the present model of charge-free gravastar in connection to the exterior (2+1) anti-de Sitter space-time or the BTZ space-time is stable and non-singular.

Maximal stream and minimal cutset for first passage percolation through a domain of $\mathbb{R}^d$
Creators: name: Cerf, Raphaël
name: Théret, Marie
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)

description: We consider the standard first passage percolation model in the rescaled graph $\mathbb{Z}^d/n$ for $d\geq2$ and a domain $Ω$ of boundary $Γ$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Let $Γ^1$ and $Γ^2$ be two disjoint open subsets of $Γ$, representing the parts of $Γ$ through which some water can enter and escape from $Ω$. A law of large numbers for the maximal flow from $Γ^1$ to $Γ^2$ in $Ω$ is already known. In this paper we investigate the asymptotic behavior of a maximal stream and a minimal cutset. A maximal stream is a vector measure $\vecμ_n^{\max}$ that describes how the maximal amount of fluid can cross $Ω$. Under conditions on the regularity of the domain and on the law of the capacities of the edges, we prove that the sequence $(\vecμ_n^{\max})_{n\geq1}$ converges a.s. to the set of the solutions of a continuous deterministic problem of maximal stream in an anisotropic network. A minimal cutset can been seen as the boundary of a set $E_n^{\min}$ that separates $Γ^1$ from $Γ^2$ in $Ω$ and whose random capacity is minimal. Under the same conditions, we prove that the sequence $(E_n^{\min})_{n\geq1}$ converges toward the set of the solutions of a continuous deterministic problem of minimal cutset. We deduce from this a continuous deterministic max-flow min-cut theorem and a new proof of the law of large numbers for the maximal flow. This proof is more natural than the existing one, since it relies on the study of maximal streams and minimal cutsets, which are the pertinent objects to look at.

description: Las redes hospitalarias estrechas han proliferado en los sistemas sanitarios con competencia de asistencia gestionada. En este trabajo investigamos el efecto causal de la amplitud de la red hospitalaria en la mortalidad de los pacientes. Para identificar este efecto, aprovechamos las cancelaciones de aseguradoras y las posteriores cancelaciones de hospitales integrados verticalmente. Utilizamos datos del sistema sanitario colombiano, donde la mayor aseguradora de salud (Saludcoop) y sus hospitales fueron dados de baja a finales de 2015. Los resultados muestran que las aseguradoras de red amplia reducen la mortalidad de los pacientes porque incluyen hospitales de alta calidad y pueden tratar más condiciones de salud. Nuestros resultados sugieren que, en un entorno sin competencia de precios, el acceso a la atención sanitaria a través de unas pocas aseguradoras con redes amplias es mejor para la salud de los pacientes que el acceso a la atención sanitaria a través de muchas aseguradoras con redes estrechas.

description: As the coronavirus pandemic spread across the globe in early 2020, the European Central Bank as well as national governments in the euro area enacted or announced numerous economic policy measures to counteract the severe economic consequences of the resulting lockdowns. In this paper, the immediate effect of the announcements on government bond and stock markets are estimated in a panel study. The results show that the ECB’s monetary policy measures barely had a stabilizing effect on the financial markets in the short term. With the exception of the announcement of Germany’s Economic Stabilization Fund, the fiscal rescue packages of other national governments and the EU did not lower government bond yields. In contrast, suspending fiscal rules and relaxing banking regulations had a calming effect on the markets, especially the government bond markets. In conjunction with fiscal policy measures, EU-wide measures in particular, they were able to stabilize the stock markets. Overall, the results show that policy action on the part of individual governments is not sufficiently effective on its own. To be effective, measures must be taken by Member States together. A joint crisis mechanism, such as the European Recovery Plan announced by the EU, could be quite efficient.

description: Mobile money is an innovation that allows financial transactions to be performed via a cell phone. Even in poor regions of Africa, almost everyone has a cell phone; therefore, mobile money could both contribute to the continent’s economic growth and ensure that no Africans are excluded from access to financial services. However, DIW Berlin data from Uganda show that mobile money is actually used less frequently than the number of mobile money accounts suggests. Nevertheless, demand for financial services has increased by 20 percentage points since the introduction of mobile money. At the same time, a fourth of the population—the poorest, in particular— remain financially excluded. In addition to high costs, this is mainly due to the insufficient availability of mobile money in rural areas and a lack of financial literacy. Consequently, to increase the use of mobile money and thus promote economic development in Africa, an appropriate competition policy, requirements for an enhanced network coverage, and financial literacy trainings are necessary.

description: Differential elliptic flow spectra v2(pT) of π-, K0short, p, Λhave been measured at \sqrt(s NN)= 17.3 GeV around midrapidity by the CERN-CERES/NA45 experiment in mid-central Pb+Au collisions (10% of σ(geo)). The pT range extends from about 0.1 GeV/c (0.55 GeV/c for Λ) to more than 2 GeV/c. Protons below 0.4 GeV/c are directly identified by dE/dx. At higher pT, proton elliptic flow v2(pT) is derived as a constituent, besides π+ and K+, of the elliptic flow of positive pion candidates. The retrieval requires additional inputs: (i) of the particle composition, and (ii) of v2(pT) of positive pions. For (i), particle ratios obtained by NA49 were adapted to CERES conditions; for (ii), the measured v2(pT) of negative pions is substituted, assuming π+ and π- elliptic flow magnitudes to be sufficiently close. The v2(pT) spectra are compared to ideal-hydrodynamics calculations. In synopsis of the series π- - K0short - p - Λ, flow magnitudes are seen to fall with decreasing pT progressively even below hydro calculations with early kinetic freeze-out (Tf= 160 MeV) leaving not much time for hadronic evolution. The proton v2(pT) data show a downward swing towards low pT with excursions into negative v2 values. The pion-flow isospin asymmetry observed recently by STAR at RHIC, invalidating in principle our working assumption, is found in its impact on proton flow bracketed from above by the direct proton flow data, and not to alter any of our conclusions. Results are discussed in perspective of recent viscous dynamics studies which focus on late hadronic stages.

description: We study curvature pinching estimates of Ricci flow on complete 3- dimensional manifolds without bounded curvature assumption. We will derive some general curvature conditions which are preserved on any complete solution of 3-dim Ricci flow, these conditions include nonnegative Ricci curvature and sectional curvature as special cases. A local version of Hamilton-Ivey estimates is also obtained.

ABSTRACT: This paper examines the issue of religious symbols in the public spaces in the recent European experience. After some preliminary remarks about the origins of the present debate, comparing the American and European religious models, it focuses on the line of decisions of the ECHR in matters of religious symbols. In particular it takes the contents of the Lautsi judgement (2011) into consideration and evaluates its possible effects on the future decisions of the ECHR and of national courts of European countries like France, Turkey, Germany, countries of Orthodox tradition and Spain. In the end it makes some conclusive remarks about the Italian case and the role of the State in supporting the religious symbols of the tradition, examining the advantages and disadvantages of the legislative solution.

Abstract The path of secularization of religious Offences in England and Wales: between historical and comparative perspective In recent years in Italy and England some important reforms concerning the traditional criminal offences against religion have been introduced: in Italy, Law 85/2006 regarding crimes against religious denominations that has changed the offence of vilifying, without changing the blasphemy offence; in England and Wales, the Racial and Religious Hatred Act 2006, the repeal of the common law of blasphemy and blasphemous libel in 2008 and the offences of defamatory, seditious and obscene libel in 2009. The historical perspective allows us to contextualize the hallmarks by which the two nations deal with the problem of offences against religion. The historical path that led to the current British reforms, in fact, was characterized by the transition from the institutionalized model of protection under criminal law of the Church of England, as established Church, to the formal and substantive secularization of religious Offences, which finally led to their abolition, without questioning - at least formally - the general system of the Established Church of England. The differences between the two models of criminal protection of religion are rooted in that path and are reflected in the more general legal treatment of religion and in the state/churches/religions relations in the two countries
