description: This paper is a part of a series of reports of the activities conducted under a grant from the Fund for Rural America, U.S. Department of Agriculture. Funds for the three year grant entitled "Enhancing Rural Economies Through Comprehensive Extension, Research & Partnering Approaches Using Multi-County Clusters in Michigan With Application to National Rural Settings" were received by Michigan State University's Department of Agricultural Economics in March, 1998. The major goal of the grant is to increase economic development activity in four clusters of rural counties in Michigan through the utilization of the resources of the Michigan State University Extension Service, Michigan Agricultural Experiment Station, and other resources of Michigan State University. Various local, state, and federal public partners as well as the private sector are to co-sponsor projects. This paper represents the first stages of a continuing project to explore the utilization of retirement community human resources in rural Michigan and to develop Extension programs to meet their needs. Future activities include focus groups, labor supply analysis, a conference, and perhaps a rural academy to be developed by Michigan State University and its partners.

description: Improving access to capital for low wealth households is a vital part of any rural development strategy, especially one designed to rectify long standing rural inequality and to generate broadly-based growth. In addition, there may be further benefits from specifically targeting the capital needs of rural and low-income women. Most credit programs oriented to increase access to credit for poor households are based on a "gender neutral" approach. However, unless specifically targeted, women tend to have inferior access to financial resources than do men. This differential deserves special consideration from policy makers given presumed social welfare and productivity gains to be had from specifically enhancing women's productive capacity within the household. This paper introduces the rationale for enhancing women's access to capital, documents the particular factors that constrain women's credit access from conventional financial intermediaries, and presents a review of the international experience with women-targeted credit programs. Finally, it reviews the position of rural women in Colombia with an emphasis on the position of women within the Colombian financial sector.

description: Составители священных текстов — евангелисты, пророк Давид, составители Литургии (особенно Иоанн Златоуст) — часто изображаются в древнерусской книжности. Их фигуры занимают там первенствующее положение, по сравнению с повествовательными композициями, иллюстрирующими текст, и фигурами тех святых, чьи деяния описываются в книге. Для книжности Новгорода рассматриваемого периода, в отличие от искусства Москвы и Северо-Восточной Руси, характерны не композиции с авторами, пишущими или размышляющими сидя у стола и изображенными в трехчетвертном повороте, а фронтальные фигуры, обращенные к зрителю. Такие образы обеспечивают прямое и более духовное воздействие на зрителя. В большей части сохранившихся произведений фигура автора текста заключена в обрамление в виде храма, заполненное тератологическим орнаментом. Мотивы и ритмика этого орнамента, несмотря на некоторое упрощение в конце XIV в., составляют антитезу той византийской традиции, которая сохраняется в изображениях авторских фигур.

description: In January 2000, all federal milk marketing orders began using a common set of product price formulas to establish milk component values and related Class prices. For roughly forty years before then, order Class prices were tied to the price paid for milk by unregulated manufacturing plants in Minnesota and Wisconsin . This paper addresses the question of how actual Class milk prices compare with prices that would have been generated by current product price formulas. A consistent set of product prices is derived and used to impute monthly Class prices from January 1991 to March 2003, when current formulas became effective. Between 1991 and 1995, formulas yielded higher Class I prices and lower Class II and Class III prices than prices actually experienced. Differences between actual and imputed prices narrowed in later years. A measure of minimum producer blend prices showed that, in the 13 years prior to adoption of the current product price formulas, average actual and imputed prices were almost identical.

description: Background information The international conference „SustEcon Conference – The contribution of a sustainable economy to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals” took place on 25 and 26 September 2017 at the Freie Universität in Berlin, Germany (organised by the NaWiKo project). The focus of the conference was on the contributions of the sustainable economy to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This contribution can be observed on a number of different levels: Innovations toward achieving the SDGs are to be as much a topic at the conference as methodological questions about measuring sustainability. In addition to that, the differences between various discourses and concepts and their respective contributions to the sustainable economy were also featured prominently in the conference. A further topic of interest was the (political) framework conditions and barriers to a sustainable economy as well as the contribution of science to the SDGs.

description: Clifford algebras are used for constructing spin groups, and are therefore of particular importance in the theory of quantum mechanics. But the spin group is not the only subgroup of the Clifford algebra. An algebraist's perspective on these groups and algebras may suggest ways in which they might be applied more widely to describe the fundamental properties of matter. I do not claim to build a physical theory on top of the fundamental algebra, and my suggestions for possible physical interpretations are indicative only, and may not work. Nevertheless, both the existence of three generations of fermions and the symmetry-breaking of the weak interaction seem to emerge naturally from an extension of the Dirac algebra from complex numbers to quaternions.

description: This paper combines fishing trip decisions - made before observing trip outcomes - with responses to set of double-bounded dichotomous choice CV questions regarding the outcome of the trip, to explore cognitive elements of choice and their implications for decision modeling and welfare analysis. Extending the approach taken by McConnell et al. (1999), wherein the unobserved component of random utility is linked between the trip decision and the retrospective trip evaluation, we decompose the unobserved component into linked and independent elements, and make the linked component a function of cognitive factors hypothesized as affecting differences between the RP and SP responses. Results suggest that a significant "wedge" exists between the closely related trip decision and its retrospective valuation, and that this wedge is not fully explained by factors such as experience, recall, and unobserved time costs.
Фреска «Богоматерь с Младенцем на престоле», 1466 года, из новгородского Софийского собора: особенности иконографии и расположения в храмовом пространстве

description: В статье впервые публикуется фресковая композиция «Богоматерь с Младенцем на престоле», собранная из археологических фрагментов росписи новгородского Софийского собора. По стилю живописи и месту находки в храме она обнаруживает прямое соответствие сообщению Летописи Авраамки о росписи столпов Софийского собора в 1466 г. повелением новгородского архиепископа Ионы. Будучи промежуточным звеном между росписями церкви Сергия Радонежского в Детинце и Симеона Богоприимца в Зверине монастыре, она демонстрирует нарастание иконных черт как характерную тенденцию живописи этого времени. Публикуемую фреску отличает необычная иконография Христа, чей благословляющий жест и поворот головы направлены в разные стороны. Такая поза Богомладенца характерна для иконографии «Богоматерь Живоносный источник», самые ранние образцы которой почти одновременны данной фреске, а также для более поздних изображений критской школы, совмещающих в себе черты иконографии тронной Богоматери и Богоматери «Живоносный источник». Учитывая раннее по отношению к этим вариантам время появления новгородской фрески, можно предполагать, что она, как и критские изображения, ориентировалась на некий несохранившийся константинопольский прототип. В то же время нельзя исключить, что новгородский мастер модифицировал уже известную в Новгороде иконографию Богоматери на престоле с предстоящими святыми, стремясь включить это чтимое изображение в контекст уже существовавших в соборе святынь, косвенное свидетельство чему — фиксируемый в Чиновнике Софийского собора порядок поклонения им новгородского архиепископа во время обхода храма.

We estimate the consequence of collisions between these clumps as they come close to the central object and calculate the resulting radiation. We show that this radiation is similar to that observed in the optical to X-ray spectral domain in Seyfert galaxies and quasars. We also show that the large scale accretion is likely to be clumpy when arriving in the active region and that the clumps keep their identity between collisions.

description: Статья посвящена малоизвестному памятнику московской живописи XV в.— иконе «Богоявление» из частного собрания Воробьёвых. Недавно на этом произведении была обнаружена надпись, содержавшая имя иконописца, однако ее текст был опубликован с лакунами, в числе которых оказалось и имя мастера. Мы предлагаем свою реконструкцию надписи, основанную на других принципах ее чтения, которое нужно начинать с правой части текста и оканчивать левой. Кроме того, следует исходить из предположения, что один из фрагментов надписи исполнен тайнописью. Новое прочтение и расшифровка криптографического фрагмента позволили утверждать, что икона была написана неким попом Иваном, который вложил ее в неизвестный храм. Судя по всему, этот клирик был сравнительно образованным человеком, желавшим и показать знание тайнописи, и уточнить смысл изображенного сюжета. Он поместил надпись со своим именем в пещеру в правой части иконы, очевидно, выражая мысль о том, что при крещении верующий «погребается» вместе с Христом, чтобы затем воскреснуть вместе с Ним. Редкий для русской иконописи XV в. тип надписи дает новую информацию о средневековых вотивных текстах и их месте в замысле произведений.

description: Continuous-variable quantum information, encoded into infinite-dimensional quantum systems, is a promising platform for the realization of many quantum information protocols, including quantum computation, quantum metrology, quantum cryptography, and quantum communication. To successfully demonstrate these protocols, an essential step is the certification of multimode continuous-variable quantum states and quantum devices. This problem is well studied under the assumption that multiple uses of the same device result into identical and independently distributed (i.i.d.) operations. However, in realistic scenarios, identical and independent state preparation and calls to the quantum devices cannot be generally guaranteed. Important instances include adversarial scenarios and instances of time-dependent and correlated noise. In this paper, we propose the first set of reliable protocols for verifying multimode continuous-variable entangled states and devices in these non-i.i.d scenarios. Although not fully universal, these protocols are applicable to Gaussian quantum states, non-Gaussian hypergraph states, as well as amplification, attenuation, and purification of noisy coherent states.

description: What is the state of the Philippine environment, and what are the links between environment and development in the Philippine setting? In this paper we first review the available data on environmental quality and natural resource degradation in the Philippines. We consider trends over time, and compare the Philippine case with those of its Asian regional neighbors. Second, we present a brief review of theoretical links between environmental quality, resource depletion, and development strategies and outcomes, and consider the Philippine data in light of this theory. Third, we discuss recent economic trends and policy initiatives having a bearing on environment and development, and present some simulation results indicating likely trends in economic and environmental variables under alternative policy regimes. Finally, we ask what past experience and current trends might indicate for the future of the Philippine environment.

description: INTRODUCTION: Pediatric prucalopride studies for treatment of gastrointestinal (GI) disorders have reported mixed results. We aimed to assess the safety and effectiveness of prucalopride in functional constipation (FC) with and without upper GI symptoms. METHODS: Retrospective data on patients with FC receiving combined prucalopride and conventional therapy was compared with those receiving conventional therapy alone within 12 months. Thirty patients on combined therapy and those on conventional therapy were each matched on the basis of age, gender, race, and presence of fecal soiling. Response (complete, partial, or no resolution) was compared. Similarly, response to concurrent functional upper GI symptoms (postprandial pain, bloating, weight loss, vomiting, early satiety, or nausea) and dysphagia, as well as adverse effects, were evaluated in the combined group. RESULTS: Mean age of 57 cases was 14.7 ± 4.9 years and 68% were female. Comorbidities included functional upper GI (UGI) symptoms (84%), dysphagia (12%), mood disorders (49%), and hypermobility spectrum disorder (37%). Unmatched cases reported 63% improvement to FC; response did not differ between the matched cohorts (70% versus 76.6%, p = 0.84). Cases showed a 56% improvement in functional UGI symptoms and 100% in dysphagia. Adverse effects were reported in 30%, abdominal cramps being most common. Four (7%) patients with a known mood disorder reported worsened mood, of which two endorsed suicidal ideation. CONCLUSION: Prucalopride efficaciously treated concurrent UGI symptoms and dysphagia in constipated pediatric patients and was overall well tolerated. Preexisting mood disorders seemed to worsen in a small subset of cases.

description: Jamming criticality defines a universality class that includes systems as diverse as glasses, colloids, foams, amorphous solids, constraint satisfaction problems, neural networks, etc. A particularly interesting feature of this class is that small interparticle forces ($f$) and gaps ($h$) are distributed according to nontrivial power laws. A recently developed mean-field (MF) theory predicts the characteristic exponents of these distributions in the limit of very high spatial dimension, $d\rightarrow\infty$ and, remarkably, their values seemingly agree with numerical estimates in physically relevant dimensions, $d=2$ and $3$. These exponents are further connected through a pair of inequalities derived from stability conditions, and both theoretical predictions and previous numerical investigations suggest that these inequalities are saturated. Systems at the jamming point are thus only marginally stable. Despite the key physical role played by these exponents, their systematic evaluation has yet to be attempted. Here, we carefully test their value by analyzing the finite-size scaling of the distributions of $f$ and $h$ for various particle-based models for jamming. Both dimension and the direction of approach to the jamming point are also considered. We show that, in all models, finite-size effects are much more pronounced in the distribution of $h$ than in that of $f$. We thus conclude that gaps are correlated over considerably longer scales than forces. Additionally, remarkable agreement with MF predictions is obtained in all but one model, namely near-crystalline packings. Our results thus help to better delineate the domain of the jamming universality class. We furthermore uncover a secondary linear regime in the distribution tails of both $f$ and $h$. This surprisingly robust feature is understood to follow from the (near) isostaticity of our configurations.

We focus on the regions which show spatio-temporal intermittency and characterise the accompanying scaling behaviour. Directed percolation exponents are seen at some points in the parameter space in the neighbourhood of bifurcation boundaries. We discuss this behaviour as well as other types of behaviour seen in the parameter space in the context of the phase diagram.

description: Соборный храм традиционно датируется 1543/1544 г. В его архитектурном облике очевидно стремление строителей повторить структуру фасадов и детали орнаментальных поясов белозерских храмов конца XV в., не встречающихся в строительстве 1530–1540-х гг. Вместе с тем, в его облике присутствуют детали, которые впервые появляются в соборе Покрова на Рву 1555–1561 г. Это позволяет отнести церковь по крайней мере к периоду после 1559 г. и до 1569 г. Такая датировка соответствует и общим композиционным особенностям храма, построенного изначально с северным приделом, что несвойственно для архитектуры середины столетия, но характерно для более позднего периода. Таким образом в архитектуре собора прослеживаются две противоречащие тенденции, образующие уникальность облика этого храма — с одной стороны, сознательное стремление обратиться к самым ранним образцам среднерусской архитектуры в Белозерье, с другой — привнести в консервативную архитектурную традицию элементы столичной архитектуры.

description: The spatial self-organization of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in a high-finesse linear optical cavity is discussed. The condensate atoms are laser-driven from the side and scatter photons into the cavity. Above a critical pump intensity the homogeneous condensate evolves into a stable pattern bound by the cavity field. The transition point is determined analytically from a mean-field theory. We calculate the lowest lying Bogoliubov excitations of the coupled BEC-cavity system and the quantum depletion due to the atom-field coupling.

description: В статье, на основании изучения опубликованных сведений, так же как и стилевого анализа историко-архитектурного контекста XVII в., исследуется вероятность ремонта Теремного дворца в 1680-е гг. после пожара ноября 1682 г. под наблюдением В.В.Голицына. Автор приходит к выводу, что Теремной дворец не пострадал существенно в пожаре 1682 г. и в 1680-е его фасады не претерпели сколько-нибудь заметного ремонта, а архитектурный облик не изменился. Серьезные утраты дворец потерпел при пожарах 1696 и 1701 гг., однако и тогда больше пострадали его интерьеры, чем фасады. Документ 1722 г. показывает, какие части интерьерной резьбы дворца были поновлены: вероятно, результаты этих поновлений мы по-прежнему наблюдаем в интерьерах дворца. В целом же архитектурный облик дворца, а именно: лопастные арки и «гирьки», характер резьбы, Челобитное окно с сандриком на колонках, раскрепованные фронтоны окон с фигурными вставками, дошел до наших дней от 1630-х гг., и самыми серьезным вторжением в его облик была стилистическая реставрация XIX в.

description: We investigate the scattering of elastic waves off a disordered region described by a one-dimensional random-phase sine-Gordon model. The collective pinning results in an effective static disorder potential with universal and non-Gaussian correlations, acting on propagating waves. We find signatures of the correlations in the wave transmission in a wide frequency range, which covers both the weak and strong localization regimes. Our theory elucidates the dynamics of collectively-pinned phases occurring in any natural or synthetic elastic medium. The latter one is exemplified by a one-dimensional array of Josephson junctions, for which we specify our results. The obtained results provide benchmarks for the array-enabled quantum simulations addressing the dynamics in broader and yet-unexplored domains of individual pinning and quantum Bose glass.

description: A growing literature suggests that inequality is economically costly. However, much of this literature depends on static analyses, begging the question of why a market system doesn't redress inequality over time if it is efficient to do so. We develop a dynamic model of asset accumulation and endogenous asset-price formation in an agrarian economy with multiple market imperfections. The model is parameterized to pre-revolutionary Nicaragua and solved numerically. The results suggest that although a free land market would eventually lead to an egalitarian land distribution, the process would take long enough, and involve sufficiently great factor-use inefficiencies along the way, that a redistributive policy would improve on the market's performance in both equity and efficiency criteria.

Dowlingoceras kallholnense – Kröger 2013: tab.2.
Diagnosis
Dowlingoceras with a slightly compressed cross section (CHI = 1.1); oval cross section, venter narrower than dorsum; mature body chamber is more gibbous than those of the other species of the genus, ca 40 mm high at its base, and with marked constriction near the peristome. (Compiled from Frye 1987.)
Material examined
ESTONIA • Vormsi Island, Hosholm shore; Adila Formation, Pirgu Regional Stage; GIT 878-247.
Type locality and horizon
Kallholn, Dalarna, Sweden; Boda Formation, latest Katian.
Description
Specimen GIT 878-247 preserves parts of the mature body chamber and the phragmocone with a conch height and width of 39 mm and 32 mm, respectively (CHI = 1.2) The conch cross section is oval with a narrower curvature on the ventral compared to the dorsal side. The conch height increases from 36– 37 mm at a length of 17 mm (angle of expansion 8°). The body chamber is only partly preserved, had a length of more than 38 mm and decreases in conch height from its base with a convex outline in lateral view toward ca 35 mm in height. The sutures form a wide lateral lobe and are ca 6 mm apart where the conch height is 39 mm (RCL = 0.15). The siphuncular segments are elongated (7 mm long, 4 mm high, SCR = 0.57) fusiform, wider adorally and adnate to the adoral septal surfaces. The septal necks are poorly preserved, apparently cyrtochoanitic.
Remarks
The Swedish types of D. kallholnense have conch dimensions (maximum height of mature body chamber = 40 mm; CHI = 1.1, and a low angle of expansion in the adoral parts of the phragmocone) (Frye 1987) which are nearly identical to the specimen described herein. The differences in the connecting ring shape (presence of an adnate area in specimen GIT 878-247 are interpreted as taphonomic or the effects of orientation of the cut. (See also Turek & Aubrechtová 2024, and Pohle et al. 2024, on this topic.) The view is oblique to the dorso-ventral body axis, in Frye (1987: fig. 7), it is apparently perpendicular to that axis in specimen GIT 878-247 (Fig. 16E).

description: The effect of high magnetic fields on the current carrying properties of both MgB2 bulks and Fe-sheathed tapes was investigated following different thermal sequences. It is found that application of a large magnetic field during processing results in the quite uniform microstructure and the better connectivity between the MgB2 grains. As a result, the Jc of these samples has shown much higher value than that of the MgB2 samples in the absence of magnetic field. The possible mechanism of the Jc enhancement under an external magnetic field is also discussed.

description: The effects of property rights on investment are typically hypothesized to occur through a security-induced investment demand and a collateral-based credit supply. Using a two period model, this paper shows that for farms that are constrained in their access to liquidity, the investment demand effect will itself induce an increase in the endogenous shadow price of liquidity. Other things equal, this induced increase in the price of liquidity will discourage capital accumulation, and that the desired stock of expropriation-immune movable capital may decrease with tenure security. Empirical analysis of farm-level data from Paraguay corroborates this proposition and reveals that the underlying pattern of wealth-biased capital access creates a world in which property rights reform has differential effects across producer wealth classes and gets institutions "right" and agriculture moving for only for a wealthier subset of producers.

description: Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) will allow implementing low-latency services that have been unfeasible so far. The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) are working towards the standardization of MEC in 5G networks and the corresponding solutions for routing user traffic to applications in local area networks. Nevertheless, there are neither practical implementations for dynamically relocating applications from the core to a MEC host nor from one MEC host to another ensuring service continuity. In this paper we propose a solution based on Software-Defined Networking (SDN) to create a new instance of the IP anchor point to dynamically redirect User Equipment (UE) traffic to a new physical location (e.g. an edge infrastructure). We also present a novel approach that leverages SDN to replicate the previous context of the connection in the new instance of the IP anchor point, thus guaranteeing Session and Service Continuity (SSC), and compare it with alternative state replication strategies. This approach can be used to implement edge services in 4G or 5G networks.

FACTORS AFFECTING U.S. DEMAND FOR REDUCED-FAT MILK

description: U.S. fluid milk consumption has changed dramatically since the early 1970s. Whole milk accounted for over 81% of commercial fluid milk disappearance in 1970. By 1993, this percentage was less than 39%. A three-equation fluid milk demand system is estimated for fluid milks that vary by fat content. The household panel data set used includes over 4,300 households who recorded fluid milk purchased for at-home consumption over a 12-month period. Given that many of these households did not consume one or more of the three milk types, the econometric model explicitly incorporates the censored nature of these commodity demands. Own and cross-price and substitution elasticities are estimated along with effects of household demographic characteristics.

description: We study magnetic vortex-like excitations lying on a conic space background. Two types of them are obtained. Their energies appear to be linearly dependent on the conical aperture parameter, besides of being logarithmically divergent with the sample size. In addition, we realize a geometrical-like pinning of the vortex, say, it is energetically favorable for it to nucleate around the conical apex. We also study the problem of two vortices on the cone and obtain an interesting effect on such a geometry: excitations of the same charge, then repealing each other, may nucleate around the apex for suitable cone apertures. We also pay attention to the problem of the vortex pair and how its dissociation temperature depends upon conical geometry.

«Was kann die Auseinandersetzung mit dem erkenntnistheoretischen Kon-struktivismus für Auswirkungen haben auf die praktische Beratungs- und Coachingarbeit mit dem lösungs- und kompetenzorientierten Ansatz»?
Creators: name: Zihlmann, Roland
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: Der Konstruktivismus kann an eine lange Ahnengalerie anknüpfen, die bis zu den Skeptikern ins vorchristliche Jahrhundert zurückführt (Pörksen, 2011). Schon damals wurde der philosophische Erkenntniszweifel vorgebracht, dass alles, was sich sagen lasse, von den eigenen Begriffsfunktionen bestimmt sei und die Grenze zwischen Erkennen und Verkennen der Realität fliessend verlaufe. Als prominentester Vorläufer in der Moderne gilt insbesondere Immanuel Kant, der das aufklärerische Anliegen verfolgte, das gesamte menschliche Erkenntnisvermögen auf den Prüfstein der Vernunft zu stellen. Die von Kant anvisierte neue Perspektive im Verständnis von Mensch und Welt bei der Suche nach der Frage «Wie ist Erkenntnis möglich?» beschäftigt den Autor in dieser Arbeit besonders. Die Weiterentwicklung und Ergänzung durch die kognitive Entwicklungstheorie von Jean Piaget sowie der radikale Konstruktivismus von Heinz von Foerster und Ernst von Glasersfeld sind ebenso bedeutsam wie die biologische Perspektive der chilenischen Biologen Humberto Maturana und Francisco Varela. Für Therapeutinnen und Therapeuten, Beraterinnen und Berater ist unter dem konstruktivistischen Aspekt letztendlich die Kommunikationstheorie von Paul Watzlawick von besonderer Bedeutung. Watzlawick bildet das Verbindungselement im Verstehen von Klientinnen und Klienten. Erst seine pragmatischen Axiome, die die menschliche Kommunikation erklären und ihre Paradoxie aufzeigen, bilden auch die Grundlage, die nötig ist, um den lösungs- und kompetenzorientierten Ansatz (LKO) mit seinen Fragetechniken und den diesen zugrundeliegenden Annahmen in der Praxis anzuwenden. Diese Masterarbeit beschäftigt sich in all ihren Facetten mit der Frage der Bedeutung des Konstruktivismus für die Lösungs- und Kompetenzorientierung. Sie soll aufzeigen, wie sich der Konstruktivismus im Verlauf der Geschichte entwickelt hat und wie sich die Perspektive auf menschliches Verhalten dadurch verändern kann.

description: The intent of the applied research reported in this paper is to examine the relationship between growth and the fiscal health of a subset of local governments (incorporated cities) over the last decade. While any number of researchers has raised this question, the literature has tended to focus on larger urban areas during economic downturns. Ladd's (1994) most recent research looking at the fiscal effects of growth has become perhaps the most influential in this line of work. Ladd's research, however, is limited in that she focused on per capita spending, a variable of interest in itself and because it can be conceptually linked to service quality and tax burden. While the data used in her analysis do not reflect a period of economic downturn, the data are for large counties from across the U.S. The analysis presented in this paper is intended to explore of the impact of growth on the fiscal health of smaller local governments. Annual data for Wisconsin cities from 1991 to 1998 are analyzed in this study. Six measures are used to capture different aspects of fiscal health. Changes in these measures in relation to changes in population, property values, and income are evaluated through a series of tests of subsample equivalence and regression analysis.

description: Policy optimization in reinforcement learning requires the selection of numerous hyperparameters across different environments. Fixing them incorrectly may negatively impact optimization performance leading notably to insufficient or redundant learning. Insufficient learning (due to convergence to local optima) results in under-performing policies whilst redundant learning wastes time and resources. The effects are further exacerbated when using single policies to solve multi-task learning problems. Observing that the Evidence Lower Bound (ELBO) used in Variational Auto-Encoders correlates with the diversity of image samples, we propose an auto-tuning technique based on the ELBO for self-supervised reinforcement learning. Our approach can auto-tune three hyperparameters: the replay buffer size, the number of policy gradient updates during each epoch, and the number of exploration steps during each epoch. We use a state-of-the-art self-supervised robot learning framework (Reinforcement Learning with Imagined Goals (RIG) using Soft Actor-Critic) as baseline for experimental verification. Experiments show that our method can auto-tune online and yields the best performance at a fraction of the time and computational resources. Code, video, and appendix for simulated and real-robot experiments can be found at the project page \url{www.JuanRojas.net/autotune}.

Instability of solitary waves on Euler's elastica

description: Stability of solitary waves in a thin inextensible and unshearable rod of infinite length is studied. Solitary-wave profile ofthe elastica of such a rod without torsion has the form of a planar loop and its speed depends on a tension in the rod. The linear instability of a solitary-wave profile subject to perturbations escaping from the plane of the loop is established for a certain range of solitary-wave speeds. It is done using the properties of the Evans function, an analytic function on the right complex half-plane, that has zeroes if and only if there exist the unstable modes of the linearization around a solitary-wave solution. The result follows from comparison of the behaviour of the Evans function in some neighbourhood of the origin with its asymptotic at infinity. The explicit computation of the leading coefficient of the Taylor series of the Evans function near the origin is performed by means of the symbolic computer language.
