Foreign banks in Croatia : Another look
Creators: name: Kraft, Evan
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: After a period of entry mainly through greenfield investment, foreign banks purchased several of the largest Croatian banks in late 1999 and 2000. This paper follows a previous study completed in early 2000 and reviews the effects of foreign entry on the Croatian banking market, using the results of written and oral interviews and balance sheet data. The main findings are that foreign banks have played a major role in increasing competition, bank efficiency and the quality of banking products and services. In addition, regression analysis shows that de novo foreign banks founded through greenfield investment have significantly better asset quality than other banks, and have increased overall lending as well as lending to households and lending to enterprises more rapidly than other types of banks.

description: We apply the generalised concept of witness operators to arbitrary convex sets, and review the criteria for the optimisation of these general witnesses. We then define an embedding of state vectors and operators into a higher-dimensional Hilbert space. This embedding leads to a connection between any Schmidt number witness in the original Hilbert space and a witness for Schmidt number two (i.e. the most general entanglement witness) in the appropriate enlarged Hilbert space. Using this relation we arrive at a conceptually simple method for the construction of Schmidt number witnesses in bipartite systems.

description: A number of drivers of innovation in rural areas have been identified by different researchers. However, the robustness of these drivers through different business environments (i.e. stable vs. turbulent business environments) has not fully been explored so far. The objective of this article is to fill this gap by analysing farmers’ incentives to innovate before and after a policy shock referred to as the Sugar Regime reform. For this purpose, a probit econometric model was adopted and run with data obtained from a questionnaire supplied to ex-sugar beet farmers in Shropshire, UK. The results revealed that drivers of innovation may change under different business environments. Based on this result it is proposed in this article that farmers reach a steady state in stable environments where they have few incentives to innovate in order to favour long run goals. In contrast, in turbulent business environments this steady state is broken and short run drives of innovation are triggered.

Under the system of pumping irrigation to established two areas of 44 m² each with the purpose of assessing the variety of bean pinto-saltillo in the following modalities: conditions of agriculture conventional as a witness and as experiment farming the plot was established in terms of conservation agriculture in the form of tillage with multiple plow. Is intended to make a comparison of difference of groups by means of the test t student with a α = 0.05; the hypothesis to defend is that conservation and an appropriate method of tillage agriculture generates higher yields, lower costs of production and as a result are accomplished best utilities for producers. The truth given to credit was accepted, because in the statistical analysis applied if found significant differences between the evaluated groups. With regard to the economic analysis was a projection between conventional tillage and tillage with multiple plow method, and found a difference of marginal utility of $3168.00 pesos per hectare in the comparison of the two methods; This in favor of conservation tillage with multiple plow

description: This paper develops the proxy variable for food away from home price to solve the omitted variable problem in FAFH expenditure. Secondly, this paper incorporates two equations for FAFH price and demand to capture the minimum wage shock on food away from home expenditure. Decomposing food away from home expenditures to demand and price, this study determines the path of minimum wage shock on food away from home expenditures. A structural equation model framework with data from Bureau of Labor Statistics for periods through 2005 to 2010 is used. We find that the minimum wage has a positive relationship with the price level of food away from home, but a price does not have a significant effect on food away from home demand. It infers that the employment in restaurant industries may not be reduced by an increase of minimum wage.

description: Evidence for strong pairing at arbitrary small J/t is provided in a t-J model on the checkerboard lattice for the sign of hopping leading to frustration in hole motion. Destructive quantum interferences suppress Nagaoka ferromagnetism when J->0 and reduce drastically coherent hole motion in the fluctuating singlet background. It is shown that, by pairing in various orbital symmetry channels, holes can benefit from a large gain of kinetic energy.

Pulsing and Non-Pulsing ULXs: the Iceberg Emerges

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show that ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) with coherent X-ray pulsing (PULXs) probably have neutron-star spin axes significantly misaligned from their central accretion discs. Scattering in the funnels collimating their emission and producing their apparent super-Eddington luminosities is the most likely origin of the observed correlation between pulse fraction and X-ray photon energy. Pulsing is suppressed in systems with the neutron-star spin closely aligned to the inner disc, explaining why some ULXs show cyclotron features indicating strong magnetic fields, but do not pulse. We suggest that alignment (or conceivably, field suppression through accretion) generally occurs within a fairly short fraction of the ULX lifetime, so that most neutron-star ULXs become unpulsed. As a result we further suggest that almost all ULXs actually have neutron-star accretors, rather than black holes or white dwarfs, reflecting their progenitor high-mass X-ray binary and supersoft X-ray source populations.

description: This study was specifically conducted in the four districts of Punjab province of Pakistan. The principal objective was to identify major explanatory variables that might influence dairy farmers’ market participation decisions regarding the selection of traditional and modern channels of milk marketing. Data was collected from field survey and the sample size comprised of 320 dairy farmers, randomly selected from study area. Multinomial logit model was used an econometric tool to estimate the impacts of fourteen independent variables on the dependent variable (selection of milk marketing channel). Model results showed that eight factors like gender, old aged farmers, long distance between dairy farm and urban market, easy milk selling at door step, advance cash payment, lack of quality inspection, strong social relationship with milk collectors, and better milk price were important predictors influencing milk producers to choose traditional channels for the sale of their milk produce. Impacts of these variables were significant at 5% of significance level except long distance which was significant at 1%. Conversely to this, four factors such as high education level of dairy farmers, large herd size, provision of extension services, and purchase of evening milk were motivating dairy farmers to sell milk through modern channels. Traditional milk channels were preferred by majority of milk producers but these channels were lacking in delivering the quality milk to consumers. Policy implication for sustainable milk marketing might be the provision of dairy advisory services, advance payment framework, improving logistic infrastructure, and enforcement of milk quality inspection could ensure milk safety along sustainable milk supply.

description: A discourse analysis of 350 submissions to two Australian governmental inquiries on introducing fair use to Australian copyright law demonstrates the importance of independent research and expertise in policy debates, but the scarcity of creator voices and attention to the creative process. The absence points to the need for more scholarly research that can transcend stakeholder positions. This analysis of a public policy discussion, held in two Australian governmental venues, explores the terms of discussion of an increasingly important aspect of copyright policy: copyright exceptions and limitations, or user rights. Copyright is a policy fundamental to conditioning the terms of cultural creation, transmission, and preservation. Australia has recently undergone a thorough, society-wide, open discussion of the value of different approaches to incorporating fair use. Australia has a thriving cultural sector and tech sector, for both of which fair use is a highly relevant issue. How Australians have discussed the value of fair use, and what they have not addressed is relevant to debate about user rights internationally.

description: Predicting and characterizing the crystal structure of materials is a key problem in materials research and development. It is typically addressed with highly accurate quantum mechanical computations on a small set of candidate structures, or with empirical rules that have been extracted from a large amount of experimental information, but have limited predictive power. In this letter, we transfer the concept of heuristic rule extraction to a large library of ab-initio calculated information, and demonstrate that this can be developed into a tool for crystal structure prediction.

An Eulerian-Lagrangian discontinuous Galerkin method for transport problems and its application to nonlinear dynamics

description: We propose a new Eulerian-Lagrangian (EL) discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. The method is designed as a generalization of the semi-Lagrangian (SL) DG method for linear advection problems proposed in [J. Sci. Comput. 73: 514-542, 2017], which is formulated based on an adjoint problem and tracing upstream cells by tracking characteristics curves highly accurately. In the SLDG method, depending on the velocity field, upstream cells could be of arbitrary shape. Thus, a more sophisticated approximation to sides of the upstream cells is required to get high order approximation. For example, quadratic-curved (QC) quadrilaterals were proposed to approximate upstream cells for a third-order spatial accuracy in a swirling deformation example. In this paper, for linear advection problems, we propose a more general formulation, named the ELDG method. The scheme is formulated based on a {\em modified} adjoint problem for which the upstream cells are always quadrilaterals, which avoids the need to use QC quadrilaterals in the SLDG algorithm. The newly proposed ELDG method can be viewed as a new general framework, in which both the classical Eulerian Runge-Kutta DG formulation and the SL DG formulation can fit in. Numerical results on linear transport problems, as well as the nonlinear Vlasov and incompressible Euler dynamics using the exponential RK time integrators, are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the ELDG method.

description: We analyzed the entropy production in the majority-vote model by using a mean-field approximation and Monte Carlo simulations. The dynamical rules of the model do not obey detailed balance so that entropy is continuously being produced. This nonequilibrium stochastic model is known to have a critical behavior belonging to the universality class of the equilibrium Ising model. We show that the entropy production also exhibits a singularity at the critical point similar to the one occurring in the entropy, or the energy, of the equilibrium Ising model.

description: The objective of this research is to calculate the CASI (Feeding costs on income) indicator in sheep production units in the tropical region of Puebla, Mexico, to determine the economic efficiency of food, in relation to the value of production. For the calculation of the CASI indicator we measured the cost of feeding and the value of production, under two considerations; without the use of technological innovations and the use of these. The technological innovations considered were maize stubble ensilage, creep feeeding, complete diets for the fattening stage and diets for females in the gestation and lactation stages. Also was valorated the inclusion the urea in traditional diets for sheep from the Puebla region, Mexico. The CASI indicator was evaluated in 4 livestock production units at first, and later in a family production unit in the eastern central region of the state of Puebla, where it was obtained that the incorporation of technological innovations associated with food allow to improve the productive behavior of animals. Under the conditions of this research, the incorporation of technologies decreased (P<0.05) the cost of feeding, increased (P<0.05) the value of production, and decreased (P<0.05) the CASI value, profit margin increased.

description: The study investigates the effect of weather-index insurance on intensity of fertilizer use and yields among 230 smallholder maize farmers in Northern Region of Ghana. Out of the total sample of selected farmers, about 35% purchased the insurance. Using an endogenous treatment regression model, the study showed that weather-index insurance purchase increased the intensity of fertilizer use but did not have a significant effect on maize yield. Past experience of crop failure due to drought, livestock ownership as well as the total area of land owned explained weather-index insurance purchase in the study area. Based on the results of this study, the Government of Ghana can use weather-index insurance as a policy tool to increase the use of fertilizer by smallholder maize farmers.

The limits of the limits of the law : how useable are DMCA anticircumvention exceptions?
Creators: name: Aufderheide, Patricia
name: Sinnreich, Aram

Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) criminalizes decryption of “copy protected” digital content, even if the decryption itself serves lawful purposes that do not infringe on copyright. However, temporary exemptions to this prohibition are granted triennially if communities of practice can demonstrate that the encryption ban adversely affects noninfringing uses. This study explores to what degree members of communities with existing exemptions for audiovisual work (1) are aware of the DMCA ban on encryption and (2) are aware of the relevant exemptions, and (3) whether they believe they can use the exemptions with confidence. We find that existing knowledge of DMCA exemptions is low, but that creators may employ the exemption reliably if given the exemption language. This empirical evidence demonstrates creative and productivity costs of narrow exemptions, as well as the importance of education. Results are relevant to discussions about international treaty intellectual property discussions, about the function of exemptions in intellectual property law, and about the consequences of criminalizing decryption.

description: Relativistic and unfactorized calculations for the nuclear transparency extracted from exclusive A(e,e'p) reactions for 0.3 \leq Q^2 \leq 10 (GeV/c)^2 are presented for the target nuclei C, Si, Fe and Pb. For Q^2 \geq 0.6 (GeV/c)^2, the transparency results are computed within the framework of the recently developed relativistic multiple-scattering Glauber approximation (RMSGA). The target-mass and Q^2 dependence of the RMSGA predictions are compared with relativistic distorted-wave impulse approximation (RDWIA) calculations. Despite the very different model assumptions underlying the treatment of the final-state interactions in the RMSGA and RDWIA frameworks, they predict comparable nuclear transparencies for kinematic regimes where both models are applicable.

description: Lucas and Moll have proposed a system of forward-backward partial differential equations that model knowledge diffusion and economic growth. It arises from a microscopic model of learning for a mean-field type interacting system of individual agents. In this paper, we prove existence of traveling wave solutions to this system. They correspond to what is known in economics as balanced growth path solutions. We also study the dependence of the solutions and their propagation speed on various economic parameters of the system.

description: Three simulation models by varying the values of the production indicators were developed to assess the population behavior of herds of white-tailed deer and their economic impact in the long term. Model 1 presented decrement of animal population and economic loss by consequence. Models 2 and 3 showed positive gross margin from the second year of the project, and only in model 3 positive net margin was obtained in the year nine of the project. Show up the need for maintaining high values in the reproductive indicators to maintain or develop the animal population and achieve economic benefits in the mid/long term.

description: A survey of 350 communication scholars internationally shows that, although scholars are increasingly aware of fair use and (when aware of it) benefit from the Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Communication Scholarship, they continue to suffer from confusion and ignorance about how to apply this feature of copyright law that is crucial to their work. Most are not aware of the code, although those who use it report success. The survey results point to the need for discipline-wide education and application of the code’s affordances for institutional reform.
CAUSAL RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN GRAIN, MEAT PRICES AND EXCHANGE RATES

description: Understanding agricultural commodity price relationships are important as they help producers improve their awareness regarding production costs and ultimately aid in income determination. The present paper empirically examines the dynamic interrelationships among grain, meat prices and the U.S. dollar exchange rate. Johansen cointegration tests reveal no cointegrating relationships among the study variables. Majority of the commodities studied in the paper exhibited unidirectional causality except for corn and lean hogs. The vector autoregression (VAR) model results indicate that the grain and meat prices are influenced by their own past prices. The role of exchange rates is found to be limited in linking the agricultural commodities

description: MULTEXT-East language resources, a multilingual dataset for language engineering research, focused on the morphosyntactic level of linguistic description. The MULTEXT-East dataset includes the EAGLES-based morphosyntactic specifications, morphosyntactic lexicons, and an annotated multilingual corpora. The parallel corpus, the novel "1984" by George Orwell, is sentence aligned and contains hand-validated morphosyntactic descriptions and lemmas. The resources are uniformly encoded in XML, using the Text Encoding Initiative Guidelines, TEI P5, and cover 16 languages: Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, English, Estonian, Hungarian, Macedonian, Persian, Polish, Resian, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovene, and Ukrainian. This dataset is extensively documented, and freely available for research purposes. This case study gives a history of the development of the MULTEXT-East resources, presents their encoding and components, discusses related work and gives some conclusions.

Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)

description: In this letter, we present an alternative mixed-integer non-liner programming formulation of the reactive optimal power flow (ROPF) problem. We utilize a mixed-integer second-order cone programming (MISOCP) based approach to find global optimal solutions of the proposed ROPF problem formulation. We strengthen the MISOCP relaxation via the addition of convex envelopes and cutting planes. Computational experiments on challenging test cases show that the MISOCP-based approach yields promising results compared to a semidefinite programming based approach from the literature.
