description: The recent measurements of the color-suppressed modes $\bar B^0\to D^{(*)0}π^0$ imply non-vanishing relative final-state interaction (FSI) phases among various $\bar B\to Dπ$ decay amplitudes. Depending on whether or not FSIs are implemented in the topological quark-diagram amplitudes, two solutions for the parameters $a_1$ and $a_2$ are extracted from data using various form-factor models. It is found that $a_2$ is not universal: $|a_2(Dπ)|= 0.40-0.55$ and $|a_2(D^*π)|= 0.25-0.35$ with a relative phase of order $(50-55)^\circ$ between $a_1$ and $a_2$. If FSIs are not included in quark-diagram amplitudes from the outset, $a_2^{eff}/a_1^{eff}$ and $a_2^{eff}$ will become smaller. The large value of $|a_2(Dπ)|$ compared to $|a_2^{eff}(Dπ)|$ or naive expectation implies the importance of long-distance FSI contributions to color-suppressed internal $W$-emission via final-state rescatterings of the color-allowed tree amplitude.

description: We investigate how voluntary contributions to community-specific public goods affect (a) the relationship between inequality of incomes and inequality of welfare outcomes, and (b) individuals’ material incentives for supporting income redistribution. We show that the nominal distribution of income could give quite a misleading picture of real inequality and tensions in society, both within and between communities. We also analyze the impact of alternative patterns of income growth on welfare inequality, and show that, somewhat paradoxically, individuals sometimes have incentives for opposing redistribution programs from which they themselves stand to receive income increments. This arises because of the complicating role of public goods, and has strong implications for class and community solidarity.

Female labour force participation in West Malaysia with special reference to Kelantan and Trengganu
Creators: name: Sopian, Md. Shamsudin Zahid
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1980
Subjects: subject: Women Employment Malaysia Kelantan
subject: Women Employment Malaysia Terengganu

description: This study is an investigation of the female labour force participation in West Malaysia, with special reference to the two east coast states of Kelantan and Trengganu. The main data used in the analyses is the 2 per cent Sample of the 1970 Housing and Population Census of Malaysia. The censuses of 1947 and 1957 were also used when looking into the trends of the female economic activity. The principal findings are as follows. Female labour force participation in Kelantan and Trengganu assumes an upward trend and the rates tend to rise with economic development. This is mainly due to a rise in education and the rate of literacy. A feature of the labour force participation in this area is the shift from agricultural to non-agricultural industries. This is mainly due to changes in the attitudes and values of the people. The levels and patterns of female economic activity in Kelantan and Trengganu differ from the whole of West Malaysia because of the differences in the levels of development between the two. Sectoral and racial differentials seem to be consistent with the female labour force participation in these two traditional states of West Malaysia.
Dramatic effect of a transverse electric field on frictional properties of graphene

description: We study the influence of transverse electric fields on the interfacial forces between a graphene layer and a carbon nanotube tip by means of atomistic simulations, in which a Gaussian regularized charge-dipole potential is combined with classical force fields. A significant effect of the field-induced electric charge on the normal force is observed. The normal pressure is found to be sensitive to the presence of a transverse electric field, while the friction force remains relatively invariant for the here-used field intensities. The contact can even be turned to have a negative coefficient of friction in a constant-distance scenario when the field strength reaches a critical value, which increases with decreasing tip-surface distance. These results shed light on how the frictional properties of nanomaterials can be controlled via applied electric fields.

An economic evaluation of rent control and other rental housing market policies in Australia
Creators: name: Albon, Robert
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1981
Subjects: subject: Rent control Australia
subject: Rental housing Australia

description: This thesis is a study of the economic effects of rent control and other rental housing market policies. The analysis is conducted in a neoclassical framework, although some peculiarities of the housing market are taken into account. The case for government intervention is considered from both efficiency and equity points of view. The case for intervention on efficiency grounds is found to be very weak. If government has a redistributive objective, housing is one medium by which transfers can be effected. Rent control is the alternative policy which receives most attention. No valid case for rent control exists and rent control is found to be inferior to properly implemented policies of housing allowances and public housing. The apparent objective of rental housing market policies is the bestowal of tenant benefits at the most favourable ratio of benefits to costs. Considerable attention is given to the conceptualization and measurement of tenant benefits from various policies. Another matter which receives considerable attention is the issue of supply response. Various methods of tackling this question are reviewed and time-series analysis of Australian Capital Territory data is undertaken. ) The history of rent control in Australia is reviewed, beginning with New South Wales Fair Rents Act of 1915. Two rent control case studies are reported - Canberra, 1973-1976 and post-war New South Wales. The emphases of the two case studies differ. Rental market regulation, a comprehensive form of intervention in the landlord-tenant contractual arrangement, is described and analysed, with special reference to Australian instances.
Rural-urban differences in fertility in Korea

Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1982
Subjects: subject: Fertility, Human Korea
subject: Korea Population

description: This study is based on the 1974 Korean National Fertility Survey data. The study had two main objectives. The first, to describe the rural-urban fertility differences in Korea in relation to the demographic, socio-economic and cultural characteristics of respondents. The second, to identify the relative importance of variables related to fertility within a rural and urban context separately. For the second objective, this study has used the Multiple Classification Analysis technique. The descriptive analysis reveals that correlations between the socio-economic variables and fertility are largely negative. The analysis also proves the independent influence of residential differences on fertility in the sense that all socio-economic and cultural strata show higher fertility among rural women than urban women married more than 10 years. The multivariate analyses of total number of children ever born (CEB), and children born (CB) during the five years before the survey for the women aged 35-49, show that age at marriage is the most important factor affecting fertility in rural areas. Among the socio-economic and cultural variables, husband's occupation and pattern of work in rural areas and education and ownership of material property in urban are important for total number of children ever born. For children born during the five years before the survey, education related variables appear to have strong negative effects in rural areas. The negative effect of education in rural areas could be increased with the prevalence of the family planning program.

description: The gluonic contributions to the conventional PCAC formulas due to flavor singlet axial anomaly have been instrumental in explaining the mass of the $η^{\prime}$ and providing a plausible explanation for solving the spin crisis. We show that they also play an important role in the description of photo- and electroproduction of vector mesons at low energy and high momentum transfers. We calculate the contributions of this type to $ϕ$ meson electromagnetic production in a model, which contains also a soft pomeron, and find agreement with recent CLAS data.

description: One-dimensional systems often possess multiple channels or bands arising from the excitation of transverse degrees of freedom. In the present work, we study the specific processes that dominate the equilibration of multi-channel Fermi gases at low temperatures. Focusing on the case of two channels, we perform an analysis of the relaxation properties of these systems by studying the spectrum and eigenmodes of the linearized collision integral. As an application of this analysis, a detailed calculation of the bulk viscosity is presented. The dominant scattering processes obey an unexpected conservation law which is likely to affect the hydrodynamic behavior of these systems.

description: This paper analyzes the characteristics and the evolution of income distribution in the Brazilian agricultural sector considering two dimensions: the per capita household income and the income of occupied persons. The main data source is the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD). The per capita household income was divided into nine components (for Brazil and considering only the agricultural households) to evaluate their contributions to the decrease in inequality. In the second part, the paper analyzes the characteristics of occupied persons and the determining factors of their income, comparing the agricultural and non-agricultural sectors. The estimated effects were analyzed over the period 1992-2009, adjusting one earnings equation for each year. In both cases (per capita household income and earnings of occupied persons), the agricultural sector showed markedly different behavior compared to the non-agricultural sector.

description: The spin-orbit coupling and electron correlation in perovskite SrIrO3 (SIO) strongly favor new quantum states and make SIO very attractive for next generation quantum information technology. In addition, the small electronic band-width offers the possibility to manipulate anisotropic electronic transport by strain. However, twinned film growth of SIO often masks electronic anisotropy which could be very useful for device applications. We demonstrate that the twinning of SIO films on (001) oriented SrTiO3 (STO) substrates can be strongly reduced for thin films with thickness t less than 30 nm by using substrates displaying a TiO2-terminated surface with step-edge alignment parallel to the a- or b-axis direction of the substrate. This allows us to study electronic anisotropy of strained SIO films which hitherto has been reported only for bulk-like SIO. For films with t < 30 nm electronic anisotropy increases with increasing t and becomes even twice as large compared to nearly strain-free films grown on (110) DyScO3. The experiments demonstrate the high sensitivity of electronic transport towards structural distortion and the possibility to manipulate transport by substrate engineering.

This is simply done through suitably chosen generalized canonical transformations and without presupposing the knownledge of any auxiliary equation. The time-dependent oscillators system with an exponentially growing masses and coupling coefficient in time may be considered as particular case.

description: Motivated by persistent homology and topological data analysis, we consider formal sums on a metric space with a distinguished subset. These formal sums, which we call persistence diagrams, have a canonical 1-parameter family of metrics called Wasserstein distances. We study the topological and metric properties of these spaces. Some of our results are new even in the case of persistence diagrams on the half-plane. Under mild conditions, no persistence diagram has a compact neighborhood. If the underlying metric space is $σ$-compact then so is the space of persistence diagrams. However, under mild conditions, the space of persistence diagrams is not hemicompact and the space of functions from this space to a topological space is not metrizable. Spaces of persistence diagrams inherit completeness and separability from the underlying metric space. Some spaces of persistence diagrams inherit being path connected, being a length space, and being a geodesic space, but others do not. We give criteria for a set of persistence diagrams to be totally bounded and relatively compact. We also study the curvature and dimension of spaces of persistence diagrams and their embeddability into a Hilbert space. As an important technical step, which is of independent interest, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of optimal matchings of persistence diagrams.

Fertility differentials in Korea

Subjects: subject: Fertility, Human Korea

description: The data subset obtained from the Korean National Fertility Survey (KNFS), conducted in 1974 as a part of the World Fertility Survey,is analyzed to examine the extent of fertility differentials by socio-economic background and to explain the observed fertility differentials with regard to birth control methods. The indicator of fertility used in this study is the average number of children ever born for 5430 currently married women aged 14-49 who are still in their first marriage at the time of the survey. The selected socioeconomic variables are current residence, level of education, religion, occupation of husband, and economic s tatus. It is found that among these five socio-economic variables the fertility differentials by urban-rural residence and educational attainment are more substantial than the other socio-economic variables, and family planning is more important in determining fertility than induced abortion. The study also shows that both urbanization and educational development, as a result of economic development, contribute to a sizable part of the total decline in fertility in Korea.

description: Recently developed single-phase concentrated solid-solution alloys (CSAs) contain multiple elemental species in high concentrations with different elements randomly arranged on a crystalline lattice. These chemically disordered materials present excellent physical properties, including high-temperature thermal stability and hardness, with promising applications to industries at extreme operating environments. The aim of this paper is to present a continuum plasticity model accounting for the first time for the behaviour of a equiatomic five-element CSA, that forms a face-centered cubic lattice. The inherent disorder associated with the lattice distortions caused by an almost equiatomic distribution of atoms, is captured by a single parameter α that quantifies the relative importance of an isotropic plastic contribution to the model. This results in multiple plasticity mechanisms that go beyond crystallographic symmetry-based ones, common in the case of conventional single element metals. We perform molecular dynamics simulations of equiatomic CSAs: NiFe, NiFeCr, NiFeCrCo, and Cantor alloys to validate the proposed continuum model which is implemented in the finite element method and applied to model nanoindentation tests for three different crystallographic orientations. We obtain the representative volume element model by tracking the combined model yield surface.

description: We numerically investigate the Olami-Feder-Christensen model on a quenched random graph. Contrary to the case of annealed random neighbors, we find that the quenched model exhibits self-organized criticality deep within the nonconservative regime. The probability distribution for avalanche size obeys finite size scaling, with universal critical exponents. In addition, a power law relation between the size and the duration of an avalanche exists. We propose that this may represent the correct mean-field limit of the model rather than the annealed random neighbor version.

description: This paper examines the effects of state and local immigration enforcement efforts on the U.S. Farming sector. We use variation in enforcement efforts generated by the timing of adoption of 287(g) programs by state and county law enforcement agencies (allowing local officers to be trained to perform several immigration officer duties). Nearly 70 jurisdictions adopted such measures between 2002 and 2011. Difference in Differences (DD) models are estimated using individual level data from the 2004-2010 waves of the American Community Survey (ACS) and county level data from the 1997, 2002 and 2007 waves of the U.S. Census of Agriculture. We found robust evidence that immigration enforcement efforts by county authorities have reduced immigrant presence. We also found evidence that wages of farm workers, general patterns of labor use in farms and farm profitability may have been affected in a manner consistent with labor shortages. There is no clear evidence that state efforts have lead to notable effects.
Fractional Langevin equation from damped bath dynamics

description: We consider the stochastic dynamics of a system linearly coupled to a hierarchical thermal bath with two well-separated inherent timescales: one slow, and one fast. The slow part of the bath is modeled as a set of harmonic oscillators and taken into account explicitly, while the effects of the fast part of the bath are simulated by dissipative and stochastic Langevin forces, uncorrelated in space and time, acting on oscillators of the slow part of the bath. We demonstrate for this model the robust emergence of a fractional Langevin equation with a power-law decaying memory kernel. The conditions of such an emergence and the specific value of the fractional exponent depend only on the asymptotic low-frequency spectral properties of the slow part of the bath.

There are three ASAT variables, Verbal, Quantitative and Total, and three Principal's Recommendations, Academic, Personal and Overall. Sex and college attended are also considered as possible variables to predict A.N.U. results. Analyses were performed on three years of data; students entering A.N.U. from A.C.T. colleges in 1978, 1979 and 1980. There were 241, 258 and 272 such students, respectively, in these years. Results of all of these students in all first year units attempted were available, as well as actual marks obtained in the majority of cases. Correlations and regressions of marks in individual A.N.U. units against college variables showed that, for all faculties except Law, TES was the best predictor of mark obtained. Addition of other college variables significantly improved the regressions for some units, however not consistently over the three years. Sex was significant in a few instances. In the Faculty of Law, ASAT was generally a better predictor than TES. Grade scores were defined to summarise results obtained by students in large groups of units, based either on faculty or subject area. As for marks, TES was the best predictor of grade score, and addition of other variables significantly improved the relationship in very few cases. Sex was still significant for a few grade scores and ASAT was still a better predictor than TES in the Faculty of Law. The larger number of student results summarised by grade score meant that the effect of A.C.T. college attended could be tested. There were substantial differences between colleges in 1978 and 1979, when addition of college as a variable significantly improved regressions with grade score. However no such differences were obtained in 1980, and the inconsistency of results over the three years means no general inferences can be made on relative performances in relation to college attended. Implications of the results for A.N.U. admission procedures and possible further studies in this general area are discussed.

description: We formulate a local analogue of the ghost conjecture of Bergdall and Pollack, which essentially relies purely on the representation theory of GL_2(Q_p). We further study the combinatorial properties of the ghost series as well as its Newton polygon, in particular, giving a characterization of the vertices of the Newton polygon and proving an integrality result of the slopes. In a forthcoming sequel, we will prove this local ghost conjecture under some mild hypothesis and give arithmetic applications.
description: We change several notations from the first version. We change 'weak arithmetic module' to 'K_p-projective augmented module' in Definition 2.3 and change 'arithmetic p-adic forms' to 'abstract p-adic forms' in section 2.4. We also add an example (5.13) to explain the meaning of the function \Delta defined in 5.1

description: The Japan Hadron Facility will provide an unprecedented opportunity for the study of baryon resonance properties. This talk will focus on the chiral nonanalytic behaviour of magnetic moments exclusive to baryons with open decay channels. To illustrate the novel features associated with an open decay channel, we consider the ``Access'' quark model, where an analytic continuation of chiral perturbation theory is employed to connect results obtained using the constituent quark model in the limit of SU(3)-flavour symmetry to empirical determinations.

description: An option-pricing model is developed to rank investments that might improve water quality. The model presumes that two investment options exist that have the potential to alter the stochastic drift of a pollutant. The investments have capital and operating costs and are irreversible once constructed. The stochastically evolving pollutant induces stochastic damage. An option-pricing model provides a criterion for determining when it is optimal to adopt the investment with the highest option value. Option value, in this model, measures the expected present value in reduced damage, relative to doing nothing. If the investments are mutually exclusive, it is possible to obtain closed-form solutions for the barriers which would trigger investment. If the investments can be sequentially adopted, a methodology is developed to calculate option values for all possible combinations of adoption dates. To illustrate the optionpricing approach, a stylized analysis of investments to protect New York City’s water supply is presented. Watershed management dominates filtration and, in the case of mutually exclusive investments, is initiated when the concentration of phosphorus reaches 22.80 μg/L.

description: Photonic quantum computing is one of the leading approaches to universal quantum computation. However, large-scale implementation of photonic quantum computing has been hindered by its intrinsic difficulties, such as probabilistic entangling gates for photonic qubits and lack of scalable ways to build photonic circuits. Here we discuss how to overcome these limitations by taking advantage of two key ideas which have recently emerged. One is a hybrid qubit-continuous variable approach for realizing a deterministic universal gate set for photonic qubits. The other is time-domain multiplexing technique to perform arbitrarily large-scale quantum computing without changing the configuration of photonic circuits. These ideas together will enable scalable implementation of universal photonic quantum computers in which hardware-efficient error correcting codes can be incorporated. Furthermore, all-optical implementation of such systems can increase the operational bandwidth beyond THz in principle, utimately enabling large-scale fault-tolerant universal quantum computers with ultra-high operation frequency.

description: Pulsar Wind Nebula (PWN) DA 495 (G65.7+1.2) was detected in TeV gamma-rays by the High Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC) in 2017 (2HWC J1953+294). Follow-up observations by the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS) confirmed the association between 2HWC J1953+294 and DA 495 and found the TeV emission to be spatially coincident with the radio emission first reported in 1968. The detection of TeV gamma-rays from DA 495, along with past X-ray detection up to 10 keV, prompted high energy X-ray observations as part of the NuSTAR Galactic Legacy Survey. We present the results of these NuSTAR observations, combined with archival Chandra and XMM-Newton observations, and confirm the previous X-ray photon index of $Γ_{2-20 \rm\ keV} = 2.0 \pm 0.1$. We find no spectral cutoff up to 20 keV. With the spectral information for DA 495 extended to TeV gamma-rays, we were able to perform analytical modeling to test leptonic and hadronic emission scenarios. The leptonic models can explain the broadband emission, but also imply a diffuse X-ray nebula of similar extent to the radio and TeV nebulae, which cannot be confirmed by our observations. The hadronic models can simultaneously explain the spectrum and the spatial extent in all wavelengths; however, we need a very high magnetic field strength pervading the radio and TeV nebulae and a surprisingly high particle kinetic energy. These requirements deepen the mystery of the physical nature of DA 495. Future observations in radio to infrared bands and spatially resolved $γ$-rays can further constrain the physical conditions and radiation mechanisms in DA 495.

On Measuring Household Food Vulnerability: Case Evidence from Northern Mali

description: This study illustrates a methodology to measure empirically household food vulnerability. Food vulnerability is defined in terms of the probability now of being undernourished in the future. The empirical analysis is based on panel data from northern Mali, collected in 1997-98. Our empirical results clearly show that even though the groups of currently undernourished and food vulnerable households overlap, they are far from identical. Female-headed households appear less vulnerable to drought shocks, partly due to community solidarity. Households with good harvests are also less vulnerable, though greater dependence on agriculture attenuates this effect. Official food aid and family food gifts are important insurance mechanisms. Simulations indicate that food vulnerability can be significantly reduced through off-farm employment generation in the area and greater access to irrigation infrastructure.

 Description. The species is characterized by having bean-shaped gamonts measuring 94.0 − 151.0 (119.0±16.0) µm × 53.0 − 81.0 (66.0±8.0) µm. The anterior end of the gamont is always wider than the posterior end. The mucron is always present at the wider end. The occurrence of syzygy (end to end, caudo-frontal) is a very rare feature which has been observed in the life cycle of the species. The gametocyst is ovoid consisting of two unequal gamonts, measuring 85.0 − 102.0 (93.0±6.0) µm. Oocysts are navicular, measuring 6.5 − 11.0 (9.0±1.1) µm ×4.0 − 7.5 (5.5±1.9) µm.

description: Charginos $\tildeχ^\pm$ and neutralinos $\tildeχ^0$ in supersymmetric theories can be produced copiously at $e^+e^-$ colliders and their properties can be measured with high accuracy. Consecutively to the chargino system, in which the SU(2) gaugino parameter $M_2$, the higgsino mass parameter $μ$ and $\tanβ$ can be determined, the remaining fundamental supersymmetry parameter in the gaugino/higgsino sector of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, the U(1) gaugino mass $M_1$, can be analyzed in the neutralino system, including its modulus and its phase in CP-noninvariant theories. The CP properties of the neutralino system are characterized by unitarity quadrangles. Analytical solutions for the neutralino mass eigenvalues and for the mixing matrix are presented for CP-noninvariant theories in general. They can be written in compact form for large supersymmetric mass parameters. The closure of the neutralino and chargino systems can be studied by exploiting sum rules for the pair-production processes in $e^+e^-$ collisions. Thus the picture of the non-colored gaugino and higgsino complex in supersymmetric theories can comprehensively be reconstructed in these experiments.
