description: We investigate the possibility that prebiotic homochirality can be achieved exclusively through chiral-selective reaction rate parameters without any other explicit mechanism for chiral bias. Specifically, we examine an open network of polymerization reactions, where the reaction rates can have chiral-selective values. The reactions are neither autocatalytic nor do they contain explicit enantiomeric cross-inhibition terms. We are thus investigating how rare a set of chiral-selective reaction rates needs to be in order to generate a reasonable amount of chiral bias. We quantify our results adopting a statistical approach: varying both the mean value and the rms dispersion of the relevant reaction rates, we show that moderate to high levels of chiral excess can be achieved with fairly small chiral bias, below 10%. Considering the various unknowns related to prebiotic chemical networks in early Earth and the dependence of reaction rates to environmental properties such as temperature and pressure variations, we argue that homochirality could have been achieved from moderate amounts of chiral selectivity in the reaction rates.

description: The proportion of women on executive boards of the 100 largest banks stagnated at almost nine percent in 2018. In the 60 largest insurance companies, the proportion increased by a good percentage point to almost ten percent. While growth on executive boards has been weakening in past years, it is now slowing down on supervisory boards in the financial sector as well. In 2018, the proportion of women on financial sector supervisory boards remained at around 23 percent. If the current linear development were to continue, it would now take longer—almost until the beginning of the next century— for the top bodies to be composed of equal numbers of men and women. Compared to men, women in the financial sector are less likely to be promoted to senior management positions than in any other sector. This is due to, among other things, particularly inflexible working structures for managers, which ensure that women are hardly represented in middle management although they make up the majority of employees.

A study on multiple zeta values from the viewpoint of zeta-functions of root systems

description: We study multiple zeta values (MZVs) from the viewpoint of zeta-functions associated with the root systems which we have studied in our previous papers. In fact, the $r$-ple zeta-functions of Euler-Zagier type can be regarded as the zeta-function associated with a certain sub-root system of type $C_r$. Hence, by the action of the Weyl group, we can find new aspects of MZVs which imply that the well-known formula for MZVs given by Hoffman and Zagier coincides with Witten's volume formula associated with the above sub-root system of type $C_r$. Also, from this observation, we can prove some new formulas which especially include the parity results of double and triple zeta values. As another important application, we give certain refinement of restricted sum formulas, which gives restricted sum formulas among MZVs of an arbitrary depth $r$ which were previously known only in the cases of depth $2,3,4$. Furthermore, considering a sub-root system of type $B_r$ analogously, we can give relevant analogues of the Hoffman-Zagier formula, parity results and restricted sum formulas.

description: We show that any transversally complete Riemannian foliation F of dimension one on any possibly non-compact manifold M is tense; namely, (M,F) admits a Riemannian metric such that the mean curvature form of F is basic. This is a partial generalization of a result of Dominguez, which says that any Riemannian foliation on any compact manifold is tense. Our proof is based on some results of Molino and Sergiescu, and it is simpler than the original proof by Dominguez. As an application, we generalize some well known results including Masa's characterization of tautness.

description: The gender quota for supervisory boards is continuing to show its impact: the proportion of women on the supervisory boards of the 200 highest-performing companies in Germany increased by over two percentage points to 27 percent the past year. In the 100 largest companies, it increased by over three percentage points to 28 percent. However, there are now indications that the companies are only doing the bare minimum, as the proportion of women in the group of the 30 largest DAX companies—many of which have already reached the minimum of 30 percent women—has stagnated at one-third. Additionally, it is becoming more and more apparent that the gender quota does not have the impact hoped for on executive boards, at least not in the short term. Even though the ten percent mark was reached for the first time in the top 100 companies, most development is still taking place at a snail’s pace. It is still up to companies to stymie demands for binding board member quotas. To do this, however, they must act as quickly as possible and consistently fill all hierarchical levels, especially beneath the board, with more women in order to increase the pool of potential female board members.

description: According to the German Institute for Economic Research construction volume forecast, the country’s construction industry will continue to flourish in the coming years. Companies can count on a rise in the nominal construction volume of around 7.5 percent in 2019 and 6.5 percent next year. The industry’s business cycle continues to be supported by the flourishing residential construction sector, which has received additional stimulus from policy makers. The child benefit for building and increased tax deduction rates for rental unit construction will make prices catapult. But due to the short-term nature of the funding programs, the construction industry will minimally expand its capacity and instead leverage its flexibility in setting prices. The nominal rise in the volume of new construction of over ten percent will be offset by a significantly lower growth rate adjusted for inflation. In view of the nation’s tight innercity housing market and the current high level of real new housing construction, policy makers would do well to establish incentives for urban development – building on vacant lots, in particular – and supporting the construction of additional residential space in urban development zones instead of taking a shotgun approach to funding. Above all, a funding approach for social housing targeted to specific geographical areas would be useful.

Radiant energy vacuum microwave microencapsulation of natural antimicrobials for a controlled release application in fresh-cut Ambrosia apples
Creators: name: Sáenz Garza, Natalia Edith
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Microencapsulation of active compounds provides protection, ease of handling and dosing, as well as a controlled release. Fresh-cut fruit has a limited shelf-life which could be improved using natural antimicrobials in a microencapsulated form to achieve a controlled release. Vanillin and hexanal are two antimicrobials that are compatible with the food model chosen in this study, namely fresh-cut apple slices. Both vanillin and hexanal were microencapsulated in β-cyclodextrin-pectin blends by radiant energy vacuum (REV) drying and freeze-drying (FD). Although the encapsulation efficiency of vanillin in the REV-processed β-cyclodextrin-pectin blends was high (66%), a fast release into aqueous media and the textural effect of the encapsulant debris on the apple slices limited its practical application. Hexanal’s microencapsulation yield was not as high as that of vanillin, however, it was improved from 20% to 47%, for the most microbially efficient formulation, using a pilot scale 3.6 kW REV dehydrator. Hexanal containing microcapsules were tested for inhibition of Penicillium expansum in potato dextrose agar and on fresh-cut apple slices. Inhibition of P. expansum was examined by measurement of radial growth on the surface of potato dextrose agar (PDA) plates incubated for 5 days at 25°C and 10 days at 12°C. Apple slices inoculated with P. expansum spores were stored in sealed glass jars for 15 days and 12 days at 5°C and 12°C respectively. Shelf-life of fresh-cut apple slices was evaluated as inhibition of mould and secondary browning relative to control samples. Hexanal release profiles were quantified using solid phase microextraction-gas chromatography (SPME-GC) sampling of the headspace. Spore germination on PDA was inhibited for 5 days and radial growth for 10 days with 5.4-6.2 μg hexanal/mL air. Although FD gave a higher encapsulation yield, REV encapsulation produced the greatest inhibition of mould in PDA. Un-encapsulated hexanal inhibited mould on apple but caused rapid browning and softening of apple due to phytotoxicity. Encapsulated hexanal delayed quality loss without apparent phytotoxicity. REV and FD hexanal microcapsules produced similar shelf-life for up to 15 days at 5°C. Hexanal microencapsulation for a headspace application could present a viable strategy to extend the short-term shelf-life of fresh-cut fruit.

description: The German economy continues to perform well although the boom has ended. However, at 1.5 percent, German GDP will increase this year at a lower rate than expected at the beginning of the year. Nevertheless, concerns about an imminent recession should give way to the assessment that the pace of the German economy is normalizing after years of above-average growth due to robust foreign demand and increasing employment levels. A gradual reduction in high capacity utilization will be accompanied by lower GDP growth; in the short term, however, this will be overshadowed by catch-up effects in the automotive industry following production and delivery problems and by the fiscal income boosts at the beginning of 2019, the most important being reduced social security contributions.

description: The global expansion weakened somewhat in the third quarter while the downside risks have increased. DIW Berlin’s forecast— almost unchanged—indicates an expansion in global economic production of 4.3 percent for 2018 and 3.9 percent for 2019. In 2020, momentum will slow down further to 3.6 percent. In some countries, temporary factors contributed to the economic slowdown. In major advanced economies, private consumption remains the mainstay of the economy due to the good labor market situation. However, corporate investment and foreign trade are increasingly suffering from the current major political uncertainties. Brexit and the Italian crisis pose risks to investment and consumption and if the trade dispute escalates, there is also a risk of a global recession. Monetary policy should remain expansionary for the time being. No more significant fiscal policy stimuli are to be expected, especially since government measures in the US will expire in the forecast period.

description: We extend the localization calculation of the 3D Chern-Simons partition function over Seifert manifolds to an analogous calculation in five dimensions. We construct a twisted version of N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory defined on a circle bundle over a four dimensional symplectic manifold. The notion of contact geometry plays a crucial role in the construction and we suggest a generalization of the instanton equations to five dimensional contact manifolds. Our main result is a calculation of the full perturbative partition function on a five sphere for the twisted supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with different Chern-Simons couplings. The final answer is given in terms of a matrix model. Our construction admits generalizations to higher dimensional contact manifolds. This work is inspired by the work of Baulieu-Losev-Nekrasov from the mid 90's, and in a way it is covariantization of their ideas for a contact manifold.

Local Magnetic Turbulence and TeV-PeV Cosmic Ray Anisotropies

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: In the energy range from ~ 10^12 eV to ~ 10^15 eV, the Galactic cosmic ray flux has anisotropies both on large scales, with an amplitude of the order of 0.1%, and on scales between ~ 10 and ~ 30 degrees, with amplitudes smaller by a factor of a few. With a diffusion coefficient inferred from Galactic cosmic ray chemical abundances, the diffusion approximation predicts a dipolar anisotropy of comparable size, but does not explain the smaller scale anisotropies. We demonstrate here that energy dependent smaller scale anisotropies naturally arise from the local concrete realization of the turbulent magnetic field within the cosmic ray scattering length. We show how such anisotropies could be calculated if the magnetic field structure within a few tens of parsecs from Earth were known.

description: The current banking regulatory framework assigns EU government bonds a risk weight of zero. Since the European debt crisis, there has been increasing controversy over eliminating this equity capital privilege, which is viewed as contributing to the close relationship between state and bank risks. This report analyses the development of home bias—the tendency of major European banks to invest disproportionately high in domestic government bonds—for Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, and Spain. In addition, it examines how much additional equity capital the banks of the euro area’s major nations would require if equity capital privilege were eliminated. This report shows that home bias has increased over the last four years for many major European banks. Home bias only affects the additional capital requirements of Italian and Spanish banks, as their home countries have comparatively weak ratings. The estimated additional capital required if equity capital privilege were to be abolished indicates that Italian banks have the highest capital requirement at 11.5 billion euros, followed by the Spanish banks at 9.5 billion euros. Eliminating equity capital privilege would thus make it much more difficult to finance sovereign debt in Italy and Spain. Therefore, it would be advisable to introduce risk weighting for government bonds only after the EU sovereign debt levels have stabilized. At the same time, measures should be taken to make it easier for banks to reduce their home bias and better diversify their government bond portfolios.

Higher pentagram maps, weighted directed networks, and cluster dynamics

description: The pentagram map that associates to a projective polygon a new one formed by intersections of short diagonals was introduced by R. Schwartz and was shown to be integrable by V. Ovsienko, R. Schwartz and S. Tabachnikov. Recently, M. Glick demonstrated that the pentagram map can be put into the framework of the theory of cluster algebras. In this paper, we extend and generalize Glick's work by including the pentagram map into a family of discrete completely integrable systems. Our main tool is Poisson geometry of weighted directed networks on surfaces developed by M. Gekhtman, M. Shapiro, and A. Vainshtein. The ingredients necessary for complete integrability -- invariant Poisson brackets, integrals of motion in involution, Lax representation -- are recovered from combinatorics of the networks. Our integrable systems depend on one discrete parameter $k>1$. The case $k=3$ corresponds to the pentagram map. For $k>3$, we give our integrable systems a geometric interpretation as pentagram-like maps involving deeper diagonals. If $k=2$ and the ground field is $\C$, we give a geometric interpretation in terms of circle patterns.

Ghost Tourism in the Ohio River Valley
Creators: name: Akin, Alyssa

Subjects: subject: ghost tourism
subject: Ghost tourism, paranormal tourism, dark tourism, ghost walks

description: Ghost tours are an increasingly popular alternative or addition to traditional tourist activities and are a growing area of heritage tourism and dark tourism. Furthermore, recent literature is showing a growing academic interest in dark tourism, but little research on ghost tourism, a specialized subfield of dark tourism. This study contributes to the understanding of the intersection between historical and paranormal content of ghost tours. It provides an overview of historical and modern ghost tourism to provide context for the ethnographic data collected for this study, which updates and combines earlier and modern contexts of the consumption in ghost tourism. The ghost tour operators and locations researched for this study were: New Harmony Ghost Walks in New Harmony, Indiana; paranormal tours in the Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Louisville, Kentucky; The Willard Library Grey Lady Ghost tour in Evansville, Indiana. Although there were differences in the tours based partly on unique characteristics of each site, all of them combined history with accounts of the paranormal, and in all sites the tour guides established credibility to admitting their own beliefs and openly or inherently relying on authoritative sources. They added to the authenticity of the tourist experience by recounting personal paranormal experiences; in most tours, they also enhanced this through tourist participation in activities. All the sites intentionally linked stories with the specific stops on the tour, further enhancing the tourist experience. These are likely qualities that can be used as a model for other successful ghost tours.

description: Is the German manufacturing industry, which has been leaving cities for less densely populated areas since World War II, being lured back into urban centers? This report analyses industrial start-ups from 2012 to 2016 and derives their preferred locations. The analysis shows that the start-up intensity in large agglomerations is on average almost 40 percent higher than in the other regions of Germany. Agglomerations attract start-ups with the advantages they offer, namely proximity to both research facilities and customers for the new (digital) industry. Accordingly, many new companies are being founded in city centers. To tap cities’ growth potential, not only must the influx of risk capital, knowledge, and skilled workers be secured, but space bottlenecks eliminated as well.

description: We put model-independent, dynamical constraints on the net electric charge Q of some astronomical and astrophysical objects by assuming that their exterior spacetimes are described by the Reissner-Nordstroem metric, which induces an additional potential U_RN \propto Q^2 r^-2. Our results extend to other hypothetical power-law interactions inducing extra-potentials U_pert = r^-2 as well (abridged).

description: Residential rental markets regulations have become an integral part of everyday life in Germany as in almost all other countries. The strong house price and rent increases over the past decade have fueled social debate on this issue. Tenant movements worldwide are demanding tighter regulations and advocating for affordable housing as a central civil right. In contrast, those skeptical of regulation fear excessive levels will impair market mechanisms. Scientific analyses on this topic have so far often failed due to insufficient data. The present study addresses this problem and presents a unique dataset that quantifies rental market regulations. Indices for measuring regulation intensity are available for 64 countries and date back more than 100 years. The dataset enables an examination of regulation intensities and regimes in a cross-country comparison. Such a comparison shows that Germany—compared to the rest of Europe—has relatively intense rent control which has been tightened even further since 2015. The impact of these changes should be accompanied by further analysis in the future.

description: Immigration to Germany has increased significantly since 2011, primarily due to the immigration of citizens from other euro area countries and those which joined the EU in 2004 and 2007. This increase is mainly attributable to a lack of immigration barriers and the good economic situation on the German labor market compared to other European countries. Model simulations show that GDP growth in Germany between 2011 and 2016 would have been 0.2 percentage points lower on average per year without EU immigration. However, structural barriers to immigration remain. Additionally, due to economic recovery and demographic changes in other EU countries, migration from the EU may not continue as strongly as before. It is therefore important to strengthen immigration incentives, such as by giving immigrants more opportunities to find employment matching their skills. In addition to EU immigration, the German economy may also benefit from facilitating access to the labor market for skilled workers from third countries.
