Subjects: Risk and Uncertainty

description: This research examines the effect of risk on the proportion of equity held by agricultural cooperatives. The measured components of risk are business risk and the financial risk that is dependent on the proportion of debt in the cooperative's capital structure. The empirical results indicate the proportion of equity is inversely related to financial risk and positively related to business risk. These risk effects are estimated to differ based on the commodity handled by the cooperative. No significant relation between the proportion of equity and whether or not the cooperative operates on a pooling basis is estimated.

description: We show that several types of global strings occur in colour superconducting quark matter due to the spontaneous violation of relevant U(1) symmetries. These include the baryon U(1)_B, and approximate axial U(1)_A symmetries as well as an approximate U(1)_S arising from kaon condensation. We discuss some general properties of these strings and their interactions. In particular, we demonstrate that the U(1)_A strings behave as superconducting strings. We draw some parallels between these strings and global cosmological strings and discuss some possible implications of these strings to the physics in neutron star cores.

description: Fano resonance exhibiting an asymmetric spectral line shape is a universal phenomenon observed in diverse physical systems. Here we experimentally establish a direct link between the spectral asymmetry parameter and a physically realizable phase factor of interference between a continuum and a discrete mode that leads to Fano resonance. Using a specially designed metamaterial, namely waveguided plasmonic crystal with a spatially varying orientation axis of plasmonic grating, we demonstrate control on the spectral asymmetry of the Fano resonance through changes in the geometric phase of polarized light. In this scenario, the changes in the geometric phase for input left, and right circular polarized light arises due to varying orientation angle of the grating axis. The systematic changes in the geometric phase and the resulting q-parameter of Fano resonance is interpreted by an appropriate theoretical model connecting the two physical entities. The demonstrated control over the spectral line shape of Fano resonance achieved by tailoring geometric phase may open up novel routes for polarization-based photonic applications.

description: Applications based on synergistic integration of optical imagery and LiDAR data are receiving a growing interest from the remote sensing community. However, a misaligned integration between these datasets may fail to fully profit the potential of both sensors. In this regard, an optimum fusion of optical imagery and LiDAR data requires an accurate registration. This is a complex problem since a versatile solution is still missing, especially when considering the context where data are collected at different times, from different platforms, under different acquisition configurations. This paper presents a coarse-to-fine registration method of aerial/satellite optical imagery with airborne LiDAR data acquired in such context. Firstly, a coarse registration involves extracting and matching of buildings from LiDAR data and optical imagery. Then, a Mutual Information-based fine registration is carried out. It involves a super-resolution approach applied to LiDAR data, and a local approach of transformation model estimation. The proposed method succeeds at overcoming the challenges associated with the aforementioned difficult context. Considering the experimented airborne LiDAR (2011) and orthorectified aerial imagery (2016) datasets, their spatial shift is reduced by 48.15% after the proposed coarse registration. Moreover, the incompatibility of size and spatial resolution is addressed by the mentioned super-resolution. Finally, a high accuracy of dataset alignment is also achieved, highlighted by a 40-cm error based on a check-point assessment and a 64-cm error based on a check-pair-line assessment. These promising results enable further research for a complete versatile fusion methodology between airborne LiDAR and optical imagery data in this challenging context.

description: The possibility to keep wireless communication channels static is investigated. When an antenna is moved away from its position, this will in general cause the channel to change. Considerations suggest that wireless communication channels can be kept static by performing a counter-movement of the antenna to keep it in its original position relative to outside observers. Feasibility is shown for a platform moving in straight motion over a finite distance. The channel is kept static by countering the platform's movement with physical movement of the antenna in the opposite direction. The experiment is conducted with a quarter-wavelength monopole antenna in the gigahertz range.

description: We present a calibration of the massive star formation rate vs. [CII] luminosity relation based on a sample of nearby, late-type galaxies observed with ISO-LWS and imaged in the Halpha+[NII] line. The relation holds for far-IR luminosities 10^8 < L_{FIR} < 10^{10.5} L (solar units). The derived star formation rates have an uncertainty of about a factor of 10. Part of this uncertainty is due to the different mix of contributions to the [CII] emission from the different components of the interstellar medium in individual galaxies, as discussed in an appendix.

BayesSim: adaptive domain randomization via probabilistic inference for robotics simulators

description: We introduce BayesSim, a framework for robotics simulations allowing a full Bayesian treatment for the parameters of the simulator. As simulators become more sophisticated and able to represent the dynamics more accurately, fundamental problems in robotics such as motion planning and perception can be solved in simulation and solutions transferred to the physical robot. However, even the most complex simulator might still not be able to represent reality in all its details either due to inaccurate parametrization or simplistic assumptions in the dynamic models. BayesSim provides a principled framework to reason about the uncertainty of simulation parameters. Given a black box simulator (or generative model) that outputs trajectories of state and action pairs from unknown simulation parameters, followed by trajectories obtained with a physical robot, we develop a likelihood-free inference method that computes the posterior distribution of simulation parameters. This posterior can then be used in problems where Sim2Real is critical, for example in policy search. We compare the performance of BayesSim in obtaining accurate posteriors in a number of classical control and robotics problems. Results show that the posterior computed from BayesSim can be used for domain randomization outperforming alternative methods that randomize based on uniform priors.

Estimation of an Endogenous Switching Regression Model with Discrete Dependent Variables: Monte-Carlo Analysis and Empirical Application of Three Estimators

Year: 1995
Subjects: Agricultural and Food Policy

description: The performances of alternative two-stage estimators for the endogenous switching regression model with discrete dependent variables are compared, with regard to their usefulness as starting values for maximum likelihood estimation. This is especially important in the presence of large correlation coefficients, in which case maximum likelihood procedures have difficulties to converge. Monte-Carlo simulations indicate that an estimator that corrects for conditional heteroskedasticity of the residuals is superior in almost all instances, and especially when maximum likelihood is problematic. This result is also obtained in an empirical example in which off-farm work participation equations of farm women are conditional on farm work participation status.

description: The ten-dimensional superparticle is covariantly quantized by constructing a BRST operator from the fermionic Green-Schwarz constraints and a bosonic pure spinor variable. This same method was recently used for covariantly quantizing the superstring, and it is hoped that the simpler case of the superparticle will be useful for those who want to study this quantization method. It is interesting that quantization of the superparticle action closely resembles quantization of the worldline action for Chern-Simons theory.

description: Abstract: We construct the gravitational dual of a one-parameter class of states of strongly coupled SU(N) N = 4 SYM at infinite N and asymptotic temperature T∞, on a fixed Schwarzschild black hole background with temperature TBH. The resulting bulk geometry is of the flowing type and allow us to measure Hawking radiation at strong coupling. The outgoing Hawking flux is a function of the dimensionless ratio τ ≡ T∞/TBH and appears to be non-monotonic in τ. At present, we have no field theory understanding for this behaviour.

description: Chemical entities targeting kinase signalling pathways serve as a potential strategy to combat malignancies. Protein Kinase B or Akt is a validated target for various malignancies and Akt3 remains the least explored isoform among all its isoforms. Initially, homology modelling technique was used for generating protein structure and further validation was performed using molecular dynamics simulation and Ramachandran plot. The validated protein structure was then subjected for active site analysis which led to identification of active site residues based on metrics provided by site score. The important residues in binding site were identified as Thr81, Asp271 and Asp289 for binding energetics and inhibition. Subsequently, virtual screening methodologies were used for identification of novel hits for inhibition of Protein Kinase B or Akt3. This led to the identification of two hits, i.e. thiophene derivative and thieno-pyridine derivative which were selected on the basis of their binding affinity and drug likeliness. These identified hits were subjected for molecular dynamics simulations, quantum mechanical and synthetic accessibility studies. The role of crucial residues in binding site stood validated as suggested by molecular dynamics simulations studies. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma

description: This paper addresses the problem of designing universal quantum circuits to transform $k$ uses of a $d$-dimensional unitary input-operation into a unitary output-operation in a probabilistic heralded manner. Three classes of protocols are considered, parallel circuits, where the input-operations can be simultaneously, adaptive circuits, where sequential uses of the input-operations are allowed, and general protocols, where the use of the input-operations may be performed without a definite causal order. For these three classes, we develop a systematic semidefinite programming approach that finds a circuit which obtains the desired transformation with the maximal success probability. We then analyse in detail three particular transformations; unitary transposition, unitary complex conjugation, and unitary inversion. For unitary transposition and unitary inverse, we prove that for any fixed dimension $d$, adaptive circuits have an exponential improvement in terms of uses $k$ when compared to parallel ones. For unitary complex conjugation and unitary inversion we prove that if the number of uses $k$ is strictly smaller than $d-1$, the probability of success is necessarily zero. We also discuss the advantage of indefinite causal order protocols over causal ones and introduce the concept of delayed input-state quantum circuits.

description: We explore skewed parton distributions for two-body, light-front wave functions. In order to access all kinematical regimes, we adopt a covariant Bethe-Salpeter approach, which makes use of the underlying equation of motion (here the Weinberg equation) and its Green's function. Such an approach allows for the consistent treatment of the non-wave function vertex (but rules out the case of phenomenological wave functions derived from ad hoc potentials). Our investigation centers around checking internal consistency by demonstrating time-reversal invariance and continuity between valence and non-valence regimes. We derive our expressions by assuming the effective qq potential is independent of the mass squared, and verify the sum rule in a non-relativistic approximation in which the potential is energy independent. We consider bare-coupling as well as interacting skewed parton distributions and develop approximations for the Green's function which preserve the general properties of these distributions. Lastly we apply our approach to time-like form factors and find similar expressions for the related generalized distribution amplitudes.

description: Two recent papers explore the idea of "pairons"(incoherent bound pairs above Tc) as a model for the pseudogap in cuprate high-Tc superconductors. From this model the authors calculate the resultant electronic specific heat and static magnetic susceptibility. At elevated temperature the pairons thermally unbind causing a broad peak in the specific heat, additional to the second-order peak at Tc where the pairons coherently condense. With this unbinding the electronic entropy recovers to its bare quasiparticle linear-in-T value. We show that this is inconsistent with the measured specific heat which reveals an entropy which never recovers to the highest temperature investigated (about 400 K). In the case of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 and La2-xSrxCuO4 there is a broad peak above Tc in the specific heat coefficient, γ, but this arises from the nearby van Hove singularity (vHs) which is more distant in the case of Y0.8Ca0.2Ba2Cu3Oy and therefore not discernible. We propose a number of further critical tests. In the pairon model the BCS ratios are not satisfied until vanishingly near where superconductivity disappears in the heavily overdoped region whereas, experimentally, these mean-field ratios are sustained across the overdoped regime once the pseudogap has closed at critical doping.

description: A main goal in lattice theory is the construction of dense lattices. Most of the remarkable dense lattices in small dimensions have an additional symmetry, they are modular, i.e. similar to their dual lattice. Extremal lattices are densest modular lattices, whoses density is as high as the theory of modular forms allows it to be. The theory of theta series with harmonic coefficients allows to classify and to construct extremal lattices as well as to prove that some of them are strongly perfect and hence local maxima of the density function.

description: The study explores the impacts of Nepali farmers’ climate change perceptions on their farming practices over the last three decades (1980–2014). Results from a survey with 496 farmers show that nearly all farmers attributed changes in crop varieties and cropping patterns mainly to technological and market-related factors and not to climate change. A comparison between perceptions and meteorological data shows that while perceptions of changes in maximum temperatures did match observed trends, perceptions of changes in minimum temperature and rainfall did not. The results indicate that the climate change message in the past 30 years has not been definite enough to have a consistent impact on either farmers’ perceptions or their farming practices. This may impede farmers’ adaptive capacity in dealing with increasingly severe future climate change impacts. Because of large variations in the micro-climate of the study locations and the locations of the weather stations from which we obtained the meteorological data, the results need to be treated with caution. However, we suggest that for farmers to effectively adapt to climate change, it may be necessary for responsible state and non-state actors to improve their communication on expected climate change impacts.

description: This paper discusses a conceptual model for critically engaging with the effects of financialization on contemporary cities. The current state of theory on financialization in the urban context focuses foremost on the real estate sector activities, regulatory frameworks and governance structures that enable urban financialization. The paper addresses the calls for a closer examination of the spatial patterns that emerge from these practices. By combining financial ecologies as an analytical tool with infrastructure as a perspective, it provides a conceptual model in order to understand the impacts of financialization on cities. The paper discusses the conceptual model in the context of the introduction of the UK Municipal Bonds Agency. It concludes by outlining some of the spatial effects of the UK’s changing financial ecology of urban infrastructure.

description: The Integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect probes the late-time expansion history of the universe, offering direct constraints on dark energy. Here we present our measurements of the ISW signal at redshifts of $\bar{z}=0.35$, $0.55$ and $0.68$, using the cross-correlation of the Planck CMB temperature map with $\sim0.5$ million Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) selected from the VST ATLAS survey. We then combine these with previous measurements based on WMAP and similar SDSS LRG samples, providing a total sample of $\sim2.1$ million LRGs covering $\sim12000$ deg$^2$ of sky. At $\bar{z}=0.35$ and $\bar{z}=0.55$ we detect the ISW signal at $1.2σ$ and $2.3σ$ (or $2.6σ$ combined), in agreement with the predictions of $Λ$CDM. We verify these results by repeating the measurements using the BOSS LOWZ and CMASS, spectroscopically confirmed LRG samples. We also detect the ISW effect in three magnitude limited ATLAS+SDSS galaxy samples extending to $z\approx0.4$ at $\sim2σ$ per sample. However, we do not detect the ISW signal at $\bar{z}=0.68$ when combining the ATLAS and SDSS results. Further tests using spectroscopically confirmed eBOSS LRGs at this redshift remain inconclusive due to the current low sky coverage of the survey. If the ISW signal is shown to be redshift dependent in a manner inconsistent with the predictions of $Λ$CDM, it could open the door to alternative theories such as modified gravity. It is therefore important to repeat the high redshift ISW measurement using the completed eBOSS sample, as well as deeper upcoming surveys such as DESI and LSST.

description: When ground-state atoms are accelerated and the field with which they interact is in its normal vacuum state, the atoms detect Unruh radiation. We show that atoms falling into a black hole emit acceleration radiation which, under appropriate initial conditions (Boulware vacuum), has an energy spectrum which looks much like Hawking radiation. This analysis also provides insight into the Einstein principle of equivalence between acceleration and gravity. The Unruh temperature can also be obtained by using the Kubo--Martin--Schwinger (KMS) periodicity of the two-point thermal correlation function, for a system undergoing uniform acceleration; as with much of the material in this paper, this known result is obtained with a twist.

description: Models to analyse discrete choice data that account for heterogeneity in error variance (scale) across respondents are increasingly common, e.g. heteroscedastic conditional logit or scale adjusted latent class models. In this paper we do not question the need to allow for scale heterogeneity. Rather, we examine the interpretation of results from these models. We provide five empirical examples using discrete choice experiments, analysed using conditional logit, heteroscedastic conditional logit, or scale adjusted latent class models. We show that analysts may incorrectly conclude that preferences are consistent across respondents even if they are not, or that classes of respondents may have (in)significant preferences for some or all attributes of the experiment, when they do not. We recommend that future studies employing scale heterogeneity models explicitly state scale factors for all samples, choice contexts, and/or latent scale classes, and report rescaled preference parameters for each of these groups.

description: This study is an attempt to shift the focus of research pertaining to the relationship between natural disasters and economic growth from national to sub-national level. Using augmented panel vector auto-regression models (PVAR-X), this study examines the sector-specific economic impact and growth dynamics following floods in 24 selected Indian states over the period 1990–2015. Results indicate that floods have negative growth effects in the short-term across economic sectors except for the agricultural sector, where the effects were observed to be positive. Contrary to the existing literature, the positive effects of floods on the agricultural sector were not found to be spilling over to other economic sectors. Severe floods, unlike moderate ones, have either negative or statistically non-significant growth effects which persisted in the long-term as well. Overall, the study found floods to have diverse impacts across economic sectors, the extent of which is influenced by the state-wise levels of human development and underlying intensities of the flooding events. This study may stimulate the policy makers to direct their efforts towards taking effective and sustainable preventive measures before the flood occurs and ensure prompt response, recovery and reconstruction during and after the flood so as to build India's overall disaster resilience.

Nepalese farmers’ climate change perceptions, reality and farming strategies

description: The study explores the impacts of Nepali farmers’ climate change perceptions on their farming practices over the last three decades (1980–2014). Results from a survey with 496 farmers show that nearly all farmers attributed changes in crop varieties and cropping patterns mainly to technological and market-related factors and not to climate change. A comparison between perceptions and meteorological data shows that while perceptions of changes in maximum temperatures did match observed trends, perceptions of changes in minimum temperature and rainfall did not. The results indicate that the climate change message in the past 30 years has not been definite enough to have a consistent impact on either farmers’ perceptions or their farming practices. This may impede farmers’ adaptive capacity in dealing with increasingly severe future climate change impacts. Because of large variations in the micro-climate of the study locations and the locations of the weather stations from which we obtained the meteorological data, the results need to be treated with caution. However, we suggest that for farmers to effectively adapt to climate change, it may be necessary for responsible state and non-state actors to improve their communication on expected climate change impacts.

description: 2-Methylindole condenses with acetophenones under acidic conditions to produce 2-arylanilines in moderate to good yields. The reaction proceeds well with a range of 3′- and 4′- substituted acetophenones (fluoro-, chloro-, bromo-, iodo-, methyl, methoxy), and select 2′- substituted ones (fluoro-, methoxy-). No products were obtained with nitro- substitution in any position.

description: The mechanisms specifying neuronal diversity are well characterized, yet it remains unclear how or if these mechanisms regulate neural circuit assembly. To address this, we mapped the developmental origin of 160 interneurons from seven bilateral neural progenitors (neuroblasts) and identify them in a synapse-scale TEM reconstruction of the Drosophila larval central nervous system. We find that lineages concurrently build the sensory and motor neuropils by generating sensory and motor hemilineages in a Notch-dependent manner. Neurons in a hemilineage share common synaptic targeting within the neuropil, which is further refined based on neuronal temporal identity. Connectome analysis shows that hemilineage-temporal cohorts share common connectivity. Finally, we show that proximity alone cannot explain the observed connectivity structure, suggesting hemilineage/temporal identity confers an added layer of specificity. Thus, we demonstrate that the mechanisms specifying neuronal diversity also govern circuit formation and function, and that these principles are broadly applicable throughout the nervous system.
