E-commerce and economic development in Libya
Creators: name: Hamed, Abdalla
Publisher: name: Cardiff Metropolitan University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other economics not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis develops a conceptual framework of the drivers and barriers to e-commerce adoption in developing countries such as Libya. One of the main drivers of economic development is technology. Technology adoption usually results in rapid economic growth, and rapid economic growth is usually accompanied by rapid structural change. It is now widely accepted by policy makers that e-commerce is at the centre of an economic and social transformation that is affecting all countries. E-commerce creates new economic and social landscapes. E-commerce enables producers in developing-country to overcome traditional business limitations. The research process involves a mixed research approach. Firstly, 15 semi-structured interviews were conducted involving decision makers, government officials, managers and general employees regarding e-commerce and economic development in Libya. Secondly, a questionnaire was distributed across a population of 150 Libyan Internet users on a face-to-face basis. There are many drivers and barriers to the adoption of e-commerce. Most issues (competition, cost, employment, economic development, government, infrastructure, legislation and regulation, payment system) could be drivers or barriers. These issues created the theoretical framework. All issues were examined in Libya, the research findings confirmed the effects of these issues on e-commerce adoption. Moreover, the research findings resulted in an amended theoretical framework by introducing two new issues (knowledge and security). Additionally, the literature on e-commerce drivers and barriers issues has been expanded. The thesis concludes with a plan of action to assist Libya's government on e-commerce adoption. The plan of action is driven by four main actors (Government, technologically advanced countries, companies and e-commerce users). These four actors and the plan of action comprise the three-quarter moon model that encourages the fourth actor (e-commerce users) to complete the circle of adoption. The thesis concludes that the three-quarter moon model can be generalized to other developing countries and proposes a classification model for e-commerce adoption along with a formula of Internet involvement. The classification model classifies countries according to their technological advancement. The new classification groups countries into non-technologically advanced, less-technologically advanced and technologically advanced.

description: This is quite a small book with loads of pictures and it is also quite colourful. It’s not even like a book really because it looks like a set of big postcards that have been put together with a wire binder. It is written for kids in care and I thought it was quite good. It is about feeling good about yourself. It explains some things like 'self-esteem' and 'confidence' in an easy way. The other thing it does is that it talks about stress and bullying and self-harm. I know a lot of kids who get affected by things like that and I think a book like this could help them to see that they aren’t the only ones.
Asymptotic normality in the maximum entropy models on graphs with an increasing number of parameters

description: Maximum entropy models, motivated by applications in neuron science, are natural generalizations of the $β$-model to weighted graphs. Similar to the $β$-model, each vertex in maximum entropy models is assigned a potential parameter, and the degree sequence is the natural sufficient statistic. Hillar and Wibisono (2013) has proved the consistency of the maximum likelihood estimators. In this paper, we further establish the asymptotic normality for any finite number of the maximum likelihood estimators in the maximum entropy models with three types of edge weights, when the total number of parameters goes to infinity. Simulation studies are provided to illustrate the asymptotic results.

description: Der dynamische Professionalisierungsprozess in der Frühpädagogik soll eine Qualitätssteigerung der frühpädagogischen Arbeit erzeugen, aber auch das Berufsfeld aufwerten. Inzwischen reichen die möglichen Qualifikationsstufen von der Berufsfachschule bis zum universitären Master. Die Fragen für die Zukunft sind, welche Einflüsse dies auf die Geschlechterpräsenz in den frühpädagogischen Berufsfeldern hat, und ob die verschiedenen Qualifikationsniveaus zu einer geschlechterspezifi schen Hierarchisierung führen. Die Studie liefert einen Gesamtüberblick zur Präsenz von Frauen und Männern in den verschiedenen Segmenten des frühpädagogischen Feldes. Weiterhin dominieren Frauen quantitativ auf allen Qualifikations- und Hierarchieebenen, allerdings schwanken die Anteile erheblich von 56 bis 97 Prozent. Besonders erstaunt, dass in der akademisierten Variante der frühpädagogischen Ausbildung der bisher ohnehin schon niedrige Männeranteil im beruflichen Ausbildungsbereich nochmals halbiert wird.

description: We demonstrate pulsed polarization-entangled photons generated from a periodically poled $\mathrm{KTiOPO_4}$ (PPKTP) crystal in a Sagnac interferometer configuration at telecom wavelength. Since the group-velocity-matching (GVM) condition is satisfied, the intrinsic spectral purity of the photons is much higher than in the previous scheme at around 800 nm wavelength. The combination of a Sagnac interferometer and the GVM-PPKTP crystal makes our entangled source compact, stable, highly entangled, spectrally pure and ultra-bright. The photons were detected by two superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) with detection efficiencies of 70% and 68% at dark counts of less than 1 kcps. We achieved fidelities of 0.981 $\pm$ 0.0002 for $\left| {ψ^ -} \right\rangle$ and 0.980 $\pm$ 0.001 for $\left| {ψ^ +} \right\rangle$ respectively. This GVM-PPKTP-Sagnac scheme is directly applicable to quantum communication experiments at telecom wavelength, especially in free space.

From Human Rights to Climate Justice: An Analysis of Publications from Amnesty International

description: Human rights are a powerful legal and rhetorical tool for guiding international systems. The introduction of an international human rights legal framework in the mid-20th century created a “universal” framework of rights, but not one that has gone uncontested. Emerging global issues, including climate change, challenge the efficacy of the human rights system as a force for comprehensive solutions and serve to highlight the debates between “equity” and “equality.” While some scholarship has offered insight into the human rights discourses surrounding climate change, research that elucidates how these discourses are formed and their effects on more traditional rights rhetoric is sparse. This thesis describes current scholarship on climate change in connection to human rights and takes Amnesty International as a case study for human rights organizations’ self-structured links to the issue, using qualitative description to note rhetorical patterns and gesture to these patterns’ broader implications. Ultimately, the thesis argues that for human rights to retain their rhetorical power in the context of climate justice, human rights need to either be centered in arguments that explicitly argue for climate justice or be reimagined to include a broader scope of interdependencies and relational frameworks.

description: Merger trees follow the growth and merger of dark-matter haloes over cosmic history. As well as giving important insights into the growth of cosmic structure in their own right, they provide an essential backbone to semi-analytic models of galaxy formation. This paper is the first in a series to arise from the SUSSING MERGER TREES Workshop in which ten different tree-building algorithms were applied to the same set of halo catalogues and their results compared. Although many of these codes were similar in nature, all algorithms produced distinct results. Our main conclusions are that a useful merger-tree code should possess the following features: (i) the use of particle IDs to match haloes between snapshots; (ii) the ability to skip at least one, and preferably more, snapshots in order to recover subhaloes that are temporarily lost during merging; (iii) the ability to cope with (and ideally smooth out) large, temporary flucuations in halo mass. Finally, to enable different groups to communicate effectively, we defined a common terminology that we used when discussing merger trees and we encourage others to adopt the same language. We also specified a minimal output format to record the results.

description: Mothers do not simply pass down traits like eye color or the sound of one’s laughter—they pass down stories as well. Cultures from all over the world have their own respective stories and legends that engage with motherhood, and sometimes, these legends have more in common than originally thought. In both Mexico and Scotland, two countries with a shared history of conquest and control, folktales of cruel and murderous mothers have been in circulation for centuries. In this thesis, I will take a look at folklore from these two regions and attempt to trace these stories back to their historical roots by analyzing versions of the legend of La Llorona through the poetry of Gloria Anzaldúa and the Scottish ballad tradition of infanticide as exemplified by the ballads “The Cruel Mother” and “Mary Hamilton.” I will use different facets of trauma theory, such as the psychoanalytic work of Marianne Hirsch and Cathy Caruth and Anzaldúa’s concept of conocimiento, as frameworks to read and understand this folklore in its historical context. I believe these legends function as a manner of giving voice to those who have been historically silenced, and by placing a spotlight on these two cultures, I hope to amplify those voices and connect us to the stories that mean something to us.

description: Collisions in a beam of unidirectional quantized vortex rings of nearly identical radii $R$ in superfluid $^4$He in the limit of zero temperature (0.05 K) were studied using time-of-flight spectroscopy. Reconnections between two primary rings result in secondary vortex loops of both smaller and larger radii. Discrete steps in the distribution of flight times, due to the limits on the earliest possible arrival times of secondary loops created after either one or two consecutive reconnections, are observed. The density of primary rings was found to be capped at the value $500{\rm \,cm}^{-2} R^{-1}$ independent of the injected density. This is due to collisions between rings causing piling-up of many other vortex rings. Both observations are in quantitative agreement with our theory.

description: O início de 2022 marcou a entrada do colégio Novomundo no contexto da Cultura Oceânica (CO), através do selo Escola Azul e ingresso na Aliança Brasileira para a Cultura Oceânica. Com o objetivo de incluir no planejamento pedagógico a partir do ano supracitado projetos e ações necessárias relacionadas principalmente ao objetivo para o desenvolvimento sustentável 14 (Vida na Água) a equipe pedagógica da instituição criou o programa Novomundo Azul. A ideia principal foi desenvolver uma estrutura pedagógica que abrigasse atividades de curto, médio e longo prazo (ações, eventos e projetos, respectivamente) relacionadas aos princípios da Cultura Oceânica no ensino fundamental e médio. Os educadores interessados receberam os materiais oficiais de formação para CO (Cultura Oceânica para todos-kit pedagógico) e apoio da equipe de coordenação para desenhar suas atividades durante todas as fases. Foram desenvolvidas três ações (participação no III Fórum dos Jovens Embaixadores do Oceano, I Concurso de desenho da Prefeitura de Santos e Dia mundial das aves migratórias), três eventos (internos: Feira de Ciências, Big Gincana; externo: Olimpíada Brasileira do Oceano) e quatro projetos: Mar de Leituras, EcoCast, EcoAmigo e Protegendo as aves costeiras do Parque Estadual Xixová-Japuí. Essas ações mobilizaram 15 educadores (45% da base) e impactaram diretamente cerca de 330 estudantes (60% do total). Os resultados sugerem a viabilidade da permanência de atividades pedagógicas de CO no projeto pedagógico do colégio, com potencial de ampliação e inclusão da educação infantil na proposta dos próximos anos.

description: We study the dynamics of the entanglement structure of a multipartite system experiencing a dissipative evolution. We characterize the processes leading to a particular form of output system entanglement and provide a recipe for their identification via concatenations of particular linear maps with entanglement-breaking operations. We illustrate the applicability of our approach by considering local and global depolarizing noises acting on general multiqubit states. A difference in the typical entanglement behavior of systems subjected to these noises is observed: the originally genuine entanglement dissociates by splitting off particles one by one in the case of local noise, whereas intermediate stages of entanglement clustering are present in the case of global noise. We also analyze the definitive phase of evolution when the annihilation of the entanglement compound finally takes place.

description: We report on a study of the finite-temperature QCD transition region for temperatures between 139 and 196 MeV, with a pion mass of 200 MeV and two space-time volumes: $24^3\times8$ and $32^3\times8$, where the larger volume varies in linear size between 5.6 fm (at T=139 MeV) and 4.0 fm (at T=195 MeV). These results are compared with the results of an earlier calculation using the same action and quark masses but a smaller, $16^3\times8$ volume. The chiral domain wall fermion formulation with a combined Iwasaki and dislocation suppressing determinant ratio gauge action are used. This lattice action accurately reproduces the $\sua$ and $\ua$ symmetries of the continuum. Results are reported for the chiral condensates, connected and disconnected susceptibilities and the Dirac eigenvalue spectrum. We find a pseudo-critical temperature, $T_c$, of approximately 165 MeV consistent with previous results and strong finite volume dependence below $T_c$. Clear evidence is seen for $\ua$ symmetry breaking above $T_c$ which is quantitatively explained by the measured density of near-zero modes in accordance with the dilute instanton gas approximation.

description: Superconducting properties of a material, such as electron-electron interactions and the critical temperature of superconducting transition can be expressed via the effective dielectric response function of the material. Such a description is valid on the spatial scales below the superconducting coherence length (the size of the Cooper pair), which equals ~100 nm in a typical BCS superconductor. Searching for natural materials exhibiting larger electron-electron interactions constitutes a traditional approach to high temperature superconductivity research. Here we point out that recently developed field of electromagnetic metamaterials deals with somewhat related task of dielectric response engineering on sub-100 nm scale. We argue that the metamaterial approach to dielectric response engineering may considerably increase the critical temperature of a composite superconductor-dielectric metamaterial.

The process exploits the spin-orbit interaction in the ring. This behavior is understood analytically and found to be robust with respect to temperature and small deviations from half filling.

description: Spanglish is a mode of speech commonly used in Chicano communities that incorporates both English and Spanish through linguistic elements such as code-switching, loanwords, and calques. The practice is commonly met with criticism due to claims that Spanglish is an uneducated, illegitimate style of Spanish. However, Chicana1 authors such as Gloria Anzaldúa and Sandra Cisneros choose to utilize Spanglish as a literary device. This thesis examines the components of Spanglish, studies how authors validate Spanglish through its use in literature, and analyzes the role of Spanglish in creating linguistic borderlands and border crossings in texts about Chicano identity.

description: We prove that the present experimental constraints are already enough to rule out the possibility of the ~125 GeV Higgs found at LHC being the second lightest Higgs in a general MSSM context, even with explicit CP violation in the Higgs potential. Contrary to previous studies, we are able to eliminate this possibility analytically, using simple expressions for a relatively small number of observables. We show that the present LHC constraints on the diphoton signal strength, tau-tau production through Higgs and BR(B -> X_s gamma) are enough to preclude the possibility of H_2 being the observed Higgs with m_H~125 GeV within an MSSM context, without leaving room for finely tuned cancellations. As a by-product, we also comment on the difficulties of an MSSM interpretation of the excess in the gamma-gamma production cross section recently found at CMS that could correspond to a second Higgs resonance at m_H~136 GeV.

Chiral spin liquid in a two-dimensional two-component helical magnet
Creators: name: Dimitrova, Olga
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A low-temperature method is developed, suited for the two-dimensional two-component classical helical magnet. Four phases on the phase diagram as functions of temperature and helicity parameter of the Hamiltonian are found. Among the three ordered phases two show magnetic order: the usual algebraic correlations of the magnetization and the algebraic correlations of the magnetization in the frame rotating according with the helical order. A chiral spin liquid phase emerges directly from the paramagnetic phase and has a scalar parity-breaking pitch of the magnetization as the order parameter. The chiral phase transition is found to be of a continuous second order type with a modified by the long-range interaction Ising universality class. All the critical exponents are calculated in the second and the third order of an $ε$-expansion. A new scaling relationship replacing the Josephson's one is found.

description: Cultural globalization refers to the idea of cultural adoption and adaptation that occurs through the rapid movement of ideas, attitudes, behaviors, and cultural products that span across national borders. This paper will focus on the music industry and how it has transformed the spread of culture on a global scale. It will offer a cross-cultural comparison between three distinct cultures and examine how the music industry offers an avenue for artists to express their cultural differences while adopting musical techniques and genres that have been prevalent in other cultures outside of their own. This comparison’s central focus will be on two main artists: BTS and Bad Bunny. It will examine how their artistic expression reflects both the cultural hybridization and increased cultural awareness that has resulted from the spread of culture through the globalization of music. It will explore how and why these artists managed to acquire significant international success in comparison to other non-Western artists. Through a focus on sexuality, gender identity/expression, it will provide more insight into the cultural contributions and consequences of a globalized music industry. This thesis’s overall aim is to contextualize the unparalleled success of these non-Western artists in a music industry that has historically been dominated by the West and the unintended consequences that impact cultural reception and appreciation.
Dark Matter Annihilations in the Causal Diamond

description: We investigate the implications of dark matter annihilations for cosmological parameter constraints using the causal entropic principle. In this approach cosmologies are weighted by the total entropy production within a causally connected region of spacetime. We calculate the expected entropy from dark matter annihilations within the causal diamond and investigate the preferred values of the cosmological constant and the mass and annihilation cross section of the annihilating dark matter and their dependence on the assumptions in the models. For realistic values of the cross section we typically find preferred values of $Λ$ on the order of $10^{-5}$ of the present value assuming dark matter annihilations are the primary source of entropy production. The greatest amount of entropy production from dark matter within the causal diamond is likely to occur with light keV scale dark matter with low annihilation cross section. We also investigate the effect of combining this entropy with the entropy production from stars, and show that if the primary source of entropy production is from stars, varying the dark matter cross section directly produces a preferred value of $Ω_m$ in excellent agreement with observations.

Nanostructured optical nanofibres for atom trapping

description: We propose an optical dipole trap for cold neutral atoms based on the electric field produced from the evanescent fields in a hollow rectangular slot cut through an optical nanofibre. In particular, we discuss the trap performance in relation to laser-cooled rubidium atoms and show that a far off-resonance, blue-detuned field combined with the attractive surface-atom interaction potential from the dielectric material forms a stable trapping configuration. With the addition of a red-detuned field, we demonstrate how three dimensional confinement of the atoms at a distance of 140 - 200 nm from the fibre surface within the slot can be accomplished. This scheme facilitates optical coupling between the atoms and the nanofibre that could be exploited for quantum communication schemes using ensembles of laser-cooled atoms.

description: Background: Systems biology projects and omics technologies have led to a growing number of biochemical pathway reconstructions. However, mathematical models are still most often created de novo, based on reading the literature and processing pathway data manually. Results: To increase the efficiency with which such models can be created, we automatically generated mathematical models from pathway representations using a suite of freely available software. We produced models that combine data from KEGG PATHWAY, BioCarta, MetaCyc and SABIO-RK; According to the source data, three types of models are provided: kinetic, logical and constraint-based. All models are encoded using SBML Core and Qual packages, and available through BioModels Database. Each model contains the list of participants, the interactions, and the relevant mathematical constructs, but, in most cases, no meaningful parameter values. Most models are also available as easy to understand graphical SBGN maps. Conclusions: to date, the project has resulted in more than 140000 models freely available. We believe this resource can tremendously accelerate the development of mathematical models by providing initial starting points ready for parametrization.

description: In a double slit interference experiment, the wave function at the screen with both slits open is not exactly equal to the sum of the wave functions with the slits individually open one at a time. The three scenarios represent three different boundary conditions and as such, the superposition principle should not be applicable. However, most well known text books in quantum mechanics implicitly and/or explicitly use this assumption which is only approximately true. In our present study, we have used the Feynman path integral formalism to quantify contributions from non-classical paths in quantum interference experiments which provide a measurable deviation from a naive application of the superposition principle. A direct experimental demonstration for the existence of these non-classical paths is hard. We find that contributions from such paths can be significant and we propose simple three-slit interference experiments to directly confirm their existence.

description: We perform global fits to general two-Higgs doublet models (2HDMs) with generalized couplings using the most updated data from ATLAS, CMS, and Tevatron. We include both scenarios with CP-conserving and CP-violating couplings. By relaxing the requirement on the discrete symmetries that are often imposed on the Yukawa couplings, we try to see which of the 2HDMs is preferred. We found that (i) Higgcision in 2HDMs can be performed efficiently by using only 4 parameters including the charged Higgs contributions to the Higgs couplings to two photons, (ii) the differences among various types of 2HDMs are very small with respect to the chi-square fits, (iii) $\tanβ$ is constrained to be small, (iv) the $p$-values for various fits in 2HDMs are worse than that of the standard model. Finally, we put emphasis on our findings that future precision measurements of the Higgs coupling to the scalar top-quark bilinear ($C_u^S$) and $\tanβ$ may endow us with the discriminating power among various types of 2HDMs especially when $C_u^S$ deviates from its SM value 1.
