description: This thesis traces the creation and trajectories of regulatory transparency policies (RTPs) within what I define as the three ‘logics of regulatory transparency’: control, performance and transaction. Through in-depth case study analyses of the birth and long-term evolution of selected RTPs in Brazil and the United Kingdom, this study shows that the logics can impact the trajectory of an RTP by shaping the power and priorities of actors in particular ways or by disclosing specific types of information. What I refer to as RTPs in this thesis are a specific class of transparency policies that carry an inherent regulatory goal pursued through the disclosure of information and published directly by governments and regulators. These are not a new class of policies; rather they are studied from the perspective of government transparency or from the perspective of governance. The goal of the thesis is to understand the creation and evolution of RTPs, identify eventual patterns of progress, and learn about the stability of these policies and of the multi-actor interactions that take place during or as a result of their creation and progress.

description: This thesis contains three chapters that examine various facets of how the market and technological environment shapes firms – and how firms shape their environments.
 The first chapter studies how multinational manufacturing firms organise production in parallel processing supply chains. Using confidential data on international sourcing of French manufacturing firms and an instrumental variables strategy based on selfconstructed input-output tables, the chapter shows that inputs that account for a high cost share – i.e. that are more important for technological reasons – are more likely to be produced by a multinational for itself, while unimportant ones are outsourced to third parties. It provides additional empirical evidence that this main finding is consistent with a property rights model of the boundary of the firm.
 The second chapter produces empirical facts on how exogenous changes in tariffs on intermediate goods have affected vertical integration patterns in France over the period 1996-2006 and evaluates them in light of the current literature. Using a long differences approach and detailed information on supply relationships, it shows that more protectionist policies by other countries and by the EU discouraged integrated relationships from shifting towards outsourcing and that initial market structure mattered for the impact of trade policy.
 The third chapter provides rare causal evidence for the relevance of endowment driven comparative advantage. It uses the fracking boom in the US following 2006 as a source of exogenous variation in the endowment of natural gas – and therefore in energy: fracking made energy considerably cheaper in the US compared to the rest of the world. The chapter studies factor, output, and international trade responses across sectors. It finds that energy intensive sectors expand along all dimensions and, most importantly, export more, which validates one of the most important neo-classical theories of why countries trade with each other.

description: Detection of weak electromagnetic waves and hypothetical particles aided by quantum amplification is important for fundamental physics and applications. However, demonstrations of quantum amplification are still limited; in particular, the physics of quantum amplification is not fully explored in periodically driven (Floquet) systems, which are generally defined by time-periodic Hamiltonians and enable observation of many exotic quantum phenomena such as time crystals. Here we investigate the magnetic-field signal amplification by periodically driven $^{129}$Xe spins and observe signal amplification at frequencies of transitions between Floquet spin states. This "Floquet amplification" allows to simultaneously enhance and measure multiple magnetic fields with at least one order of magnitude improvement, offering the capability of femtotesla-level measurements. Our findings extend the physics of quantum amplification to Floquet systems and can be generalized to a wide variety of existing amplifiers, enabling a previously unexplored class of "Floquet amplifiers".

description: By the time children in the UK start school there is already an achievement gap between those from low income households and their better‐off classmates. One explanation for this is differences in parenting. This has increasingly been the focus of policy interventions under successive governments, where the emphasis has shifted towards parenting rather than poverty as explaining poorer children’s worse outcomes.
 In this context this thesis examines how the two factors, poverty and parenting are related and what mechanisms explain these relationships, specifically testing the Family Stress Model. Using the Millennium Cohort Study a range of different experiences of economic hardship are analysed in relation to different parenting behaviours when children are aged five.
 The findings show that it is not straightforwardly the case that low income parents parent worse, and there are some positive (as well as negative) differences in parenting between mothers with low and median incomes. For some of the negative differences in parenting these are part of a broader income‐parenting gradient that extends all the way up the distribution. When other experiences of hardship are examined (such as debt, deprivation and feeling poor) they are more strongly and negatively related to parenting behaviours, compared to income. It is found that mothers’ mental health and relationship quality are mechanisms for most parenting behaviours and are particularly important for how close the mother feels to the child, play activities and discipline. Experiencing a worsening of material deprivation is associated with a worsening of a number of parenting behaviours and changes in experiences of hardship are also related to changes in mothers’ mental health and life satisfaction. These findings highlight the importance of financial resources for parenting and suggest that any policies aimed at improving parenting in order to improve the outcomes of poor children need to address families’ economic situation, as well as mothers’ mental health and relationship quality.

description: Present study explores the observation of topological non-hexagonal rings (NHR) and Stone Wale (SW) defects by Raman experiments in both single (SLG) and multi-layer graphene (MLG) after they are irradiated with 100- 300 eV Ar ions. Although predicted by theoretical studies, here it is experimentally shown for the first time that graphene SW/NHR defects have a signature in Raman. Broad bandwidth of the pertinent Raman features suggests the presence of more than one SW/NHR defect mode, in agreement with the DFT studies. Variations in the SW/NHR related Raman mode intensities demonstrate the annihilation of these topological defects at higher energies. Behavior of Raman allowed G and 2D excitations, as well as the disorder-activated D, D' and G* lines, has also been investigated in SLG and MLG. These indicate an evolution of defects in graphene with ion irradiation, as well as presence of a transition state beyond which the Raman modes are dominated by a rise in sp3 content. Correlation of these aspects with the SW/NHR Raman provide significant insight into ion induced evolution of graphene. The direct observation of SW/NHR defects by Raman spectroscopy could be important in promoting exploration of rich topological aspects of Graphene in various fields.

description: The purpose of this work is the development and determination of higher-order continuum-like kinematic measures which characterize discrete kinematic data obtained from experimental measurement (e.g., digital image correlation) or kinematic results from discrete modeling and simulation (e.g., molecular statics, molecular dynamics, or quantum DFT). From a continuum point of view, such data or results are in general non-affine and incompatible, due for example to shear banding, material defects, or microstructure. To characterize such information in a (pseudo-) continuum fashion, the concept of discrete local deformation is introduced and exploited. The corresponding measures are determined in a purely discrete fashion independent of any relation to continuum fields. Demonstration and verification of the approach is carried out with the help of example applications based on non-affine and incompatible displacement information. In particular, for the latter case, molecular statics results for the displacement of atoms in and around a dislocation core in fcc Au are employed. The corresponding characterization of lattice distortion in and around the core in terms of higher-order discrete local deformation measures clearly shows that, even in the simplest case of planar cores, such distortion is only partly characterized by the Nye tensor.

description: We investigate the physics case for a dedicated trigger-level analysis for very low mass diphoton resonances at ATLAS and CMS and introduce a new photon isolation criterion. This greatly increases the acceptance for light particles at the expense of a somewhat larger Standard Model background. We show how such an analysis would likely yield new experimental coverage for axion-like particles for masses below 15 GeV, bridging the gap with the region covered by flavor factories.

description: Extreme nuclear deformations provide great insight into the geometric formation of quantum many-body systems. In this work, the $4α+2n$ linear chain is assessed in $^{18}$O. We predict excitation energies, moment-of-inertia, $α$-, and $^{9}$Be-decay widths by using the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. We show that the $K^π=3^-$ linear-chain states may be verified by the head-on $^{9}{\rm Be}+{}^{9}{\rm Be}$ collision experiments.

description: We determine the interqubit crosstalk- and charge-noise-induced decoherence time $T_2^\ast$ for a system of $L$ exchange-coupled electronic spin qubits in arrays of size $L=3$--$14$ for a number of different multiqubit geometries by directly calculating the return probability. We compare the behavior of the return probability to other quantities, namely, the average spin, the Hamming distance, and the entanglement entropy. In all cases, we use a starting state with alternating spins, $\left |Ψ_0\right >=\left |\downarrow\uparrow\downarrow\cdots\right >$. We show that a power law behavior, $T_2^\ast\propto L^{-γ}$, is a good fit to the results for the chain and ring geometries as a function of the number of qubits, and provide numerical results for the exponent $γ$. We find that $T_2^\ast$ depends crucially on the multiqubit geometry of the system. We also calculate the expectation value of one of the spins, the Hamming distance, and the entanglement entropy and show that they are good proxies for the return probability for measuring $T_2^\ast$. A key finding is that $T_2^\ast$ decreases with increasing $L$. We also demonstrate that these results may be understood in terms of perturbation theory and its breakdown.

description: This study explores the experiences with technology among early adopters in the transition from face-to-face (f2f) to distance education to online learning at the University of Botswana. The University of Botswana had used the national education policies, government reports, National Development Plans, Vision 2016, Maitlamo National ICT Policy, to guide them with their intentions to propose technology in the system and to professionally develop and train lecturers. Yet, the rate of adoption of new technology is slow. This study uses Rogers (2003) Diffusion of Innovation (DoI) theory and focuses on three concepts: the compatibility of technology, social systems, and early adopters, in order to understand and describe the lecturers’ experiences with and use of technology in the transition process. A qualitative case study method was employed. The study used four methods of data collection: artifacts, secondary documents, interviews, and observations. Data collected using these methods were used to determine whether what was stated in the artifacts and secondary documents were actually corroborated by f2f in-depth interviews with nine participants from the Department of Adult Education in the Faculty of Education at the University of Botswana. Three main findings resulted from the study. First, despite intense efforts from the University of Botswana to promote the transition to online learning, very little technology was being used outside of the f2f teaching. Second, even though the lecturers worked within an environment, which restricted the use of technology, they did what they could to use online technologies in the f2f teaching. Third, the top-down technology adoption approach of the University of Botswana contributed to an environment that promoted minimal technology use and supported compatible technology use. Recommendations have been made for lecturers to be included in decision-making relating to technology, for online technologies to be promoted among students, for professional development and training to be considered along with time management training for lecturers, and for the university to plan, organize, and manage programs with all faculty and departments to share ownership of and responsibility for the programs.

description: Warming due to climate change is generally expected to lengthen the growing season in areas of seasonal climate and to advance plant phenology, particularly the onset of leafing and flowering. However, a reduction in aboveground biomass production and reproductive output may occur when warming is accompanied by drought that crosses critical water deficit thresholds. Tracking warmer temperatures has been shown to be species-specific with unknown impacts on community composition and productivity. The variability in species’ ability to leverage earlier leaf unfolding and flowering into increased aboveground net primary production (ANPP) or increased investments into reproductive organs has heretofore been poorly explored. We tested whether phenological sensitivity to temperature, as a result of experimental warming, directly translated into increased plant performance, as measured by ANPP and flower abundance. In order to experimentally simulate climate warming, we translocated a total of 45 intact soil–plant communities downslope along an elevational gradient of 900 m within the European Alps from 1260 to 350 m asl and weekly recorded flower abundance and total green cover as well as cumulative biomass production at peak growing season. We found that advanced phenology at lower elevations was related to increased reproductive performance and conditional on whether they experienced drought stress. While a temperature increase of +1K had positive effects on the amount of reproductive organs for species with accelerated phenology, temperature increase going along with drier conditions resulted in plants being unable to sustain early investment in reproduction as measured by flower abundance. This finding highlights that the interaction of two climate change drivers, warming and drought, can push communities’ past resistance thresholds. Moreover, we detected biotic competition mechanisms and shifts toward forb-depressed states with graminoids best taking advantage of experimentally altered increased temperature and reduced precipitation. Our results suggest that while species may track warmer future climates, concurrent drought events post a high risk for failure of temperature-driven improvement of reproductive performance and biomass production in the European Alps.
Dynamics of phase defects trapped in optically imprinted orbits in dissipative binary polariton condensate

description: We study the dynamics of phase defects trapped in a finite optically imprinted ring lattice in binary polariton condensates, under the influence of the cross-interaction (CI) between the condensates in different spin components and the spin-orbit interaction (SOI). In this configuration, we find that a vortex circulates unidirectionally in optically induced orbits because of the Magnus force acting in the polariton fluid, and the vortex' angular velocity is influenced by the SOI and CI. Interestingly, in our system, these two interactions can also lead to elongated and frozen phase defects, forming a frozen dark solution with similarity to a dark soliton but with finite size in both spin components. When the dark solution is stretched further to occupy the entire orbit of a condensate ring, the phase defect triggers a snake instability and induces the decay of the dark ring solution. The circulation direction of a single vortex is determined by the Magnus force. This situation is more complex for the group motion of multiple vortices because of significant vortex-antivortex interaction. The collective motion of such vortex constellations, however, can be determined by the SOI.

description: The thesis discusses the trajectory of the Belgian socialist thinker and activist Hendrik de Man (1885-1953) between 1914 and 1936 ca, with particular attention to his endeavours to renew Western European social democracy after the Great War. The first half of the thesis deals with de Man’s theoretical evolution. Having become convinced of the inadequacy of orthodox Marxism as a conceptual framework for the Left while serving as soldier and diplomat during WWI, de Man sought to overcome the split between reformism and revolutionary socialism by developing an ethical conception of socialism outlined in the book Zur Psychologie des Sozialismus (1926) and, subsequently, by elaborating planism, a democratic socialist ideology supposedly more in tune with the socio-economic conditions of the 1930s. The second half of the thesis focuses on efforts to put de Man’s ideas into practice. Due to his mounting desire to have impact on the social democratic movement, de Man became increasingly involved in politics and, in late 1933, launched the Belgian Labour Plan with the aim of bolstering the Belgian Labour Party and containing the spread of fascism. Planism won support from many young socialists all across Europe but was also met with suspicion and outright hostility by wide segments of the social democratic establishment, including prominent leaders such as Emile Vandervelde and Léon Blum. Eventually, de Man accepted to compromise on the full implementation of the Labour Plan and sought to accomplish the same goals by serving as Minister, without success. By examining his failure as well as the difficulties experienced by his followers in France and Britain, the thesis highlights the limits that Western European social democratic parties set to their own ideological renewal during the interwar period.

description: The gap function $Δ(ω)$ carries essential information on both, the pairing glue as well as the pair-breaking processes in a superconductor. Unfortunately, in nearly localized superconductors with a non-constant density of states in the normal state, the standard procedure for extraction of $Δ(ω)$ cannot be applied. Here, we introduce a model-independent method that makes it possible to extract $Δ(ω)$ also in this case. The feasibility of the procedure is demonstrated on the tunneling data for the disordered thin films of TiN. We find an unconventional feature of $Δ(ω)$ which suggests that the electrons in TiN are coupled to a very soft pair-breaking mode.

description: A nonlocal circulator protocol is proposed in hybrid optomechanical system. By analogy with quantum communication, using the input-output relationship, we establish the quantum channel between two optical modes with long-range. The three body nonlocal interaction between the cavity and the two oscillators is obtained by eliminating the optomechanical cavity mode and verifying the Bell-CHSH inequality of continuous variables. By introducing the phase accumulation between cyclic interactions, the unidirectional transmission of quantum state between optical mode and two mechanical modes are achieved. The results show that nonreciprocal transmissions are achieved as long as the accumulated phase reaches a certain value. In addition, the effective interaction parameters in our system are amplified, which reduces the difficulty of the implementation of our protocol. Our research can provide potential applications for nonlocal manipulation and transmission control of quantum platforms.

description: Dolichopus acutangulus Negrobov et Barkalov
Dolichopus (Hygroceleuthus) acutangulus Negrobov & Barkalov: in Negrobov, 1976: 509.
Material. Russia: 33, 2 ♀, Transbaikalia Region, “Pad’ Kapshil”, 6.VI.1943, V.B. Dubinin [ZMU].
Remarks. The material examined shows individual variability in both males and females of the species. Femora are either partly dark or almost entirely dirty-yellow; mid femur with one or two anterior preapical setae. Nevertheless, the pointed drawn-out apex of postpedicel distinguishes D. acutangulus from other members of the species group.
Distribution. Type locality: “ Mongolia: Zentral aimak, 20 km S Ulan-Bator”. Dolichopus acutangulus was known from the environs of Ulan-Bator (Mongolia). Now the species is also known from Russia (southern Transbaikalia Territory).

description: Dolichopus costalis Frey
Dolichopus (Leucodolichopus) costalis Frey, 1915: 20.
Type material. Holotype 3, [Russia: Karelia:] "Kol, Petrosawodsk, 22.6.1869, J. Sahlb." [FMNH].
Remarks. The species was originally described in the subgenus Leucodolichopus Frey, 1915 (now a synonym of Dolichopus). Examination of the holotype indicates that it belongs to D. latipennis species group (elongate-cylindrical scape with long dense setae, short and broad wing with large stigma and strong curvation of M vein located distinctly before the middle of distal part of this vein, etc.).
Distribution. Dolichopus costalis was described by a single male from environs of Petrozavodsk (Russian Karelia). Later the species was found in Sweden, Finland, Russia (Karelia, Yakutia) and Mongolia (Negrobov 1991; J. Kahanpää unpubl. data).

description: We propose a generalized Peierls substitution method in conjunction with the tight-binding model to explore the magnetic quantization and quantum Hall effect in twisted multilayer graphene under a magnetic field. The Bloch-basis tight-binding Hamiltonian is constructed for large twist angle while a simplified tight-binding model is employed for the magic angle. We investigate extensively the band structures, Landau levels (LLs), and quantum Hall conductivity (QHC) of twisted bilayer graphene and twisted double bilayer graphene, as well as their dependence on the twist angle. Comparison between these crucial properties of monolayer graphene, Bernal bilayer graphene, and the twisted systems is carefully made to highlight the roles played by twisting. The unique selection rules of inter-LL transition, which is crucial for achieving a deep understanding of the step structures of QHC, are identified through the properties of LL wave functions. Our theoretical model opens up an opportunity for comprehension of the interplay between an applied magnetic field and the twisting effect associated with multilayer graphene.

A Faster Growth of Perturbations in an Early Matter Dominated Epoch: Primordial Black Holes and Gravitational Waves

description: We present a scenario for fast growth of cosmological perturbations; $δ(t) \sim a(t)^s$, $a(t)$ being the scale factor, with $s > 10$ for the numerical examples reported in this article. The basic ingredients of the scenario are an early matter dominated era and the dark fermion which experiences a scalar mediated force during the epoch. Both of these arise in string/supergravity models. The fast growth occurs for sub-horizon density perturbations of the dark fermion. The fast growth has a rich set of phenomenological implications. We outline implications for the formation of primordial black holes and the production of gravitational waves. Primordial black holes in the sub-lunar mass range (which are ideal dark matter candidates) can be produced. Gravitational waves can be produced in a wide range of frequencies due to second order scalar perturbations and due to evaporation and merger of primordial black holes.
