description: We consider a one-dimensional spin chain system with quenched disorder and in the presence of a local periodic drive. We study the time evolution of the system in the Floquet basis and evaluate the fidelity susceptibility, which is a measure of how a given state changes under a small perturbation, of states to a weak periodic drive. We demonstrate that the statistical properties of the fidelity susceptibility over different disorder realizations can be used to identify two phases of the system: (1) the many-body localized phase, in which the susceptibility exhibits long tails while its average value decreases rapidly as disorder increases; and (2) the ergodic phase, in which the susceptibility distribution is narrow and its average value weakly depends on disorder. This distinction in the average value of the susceptibility between the two phases develops readily for systems with ten or more spins. Therefore, recently built networks of qubits subject to a local drive can simulate dynamics of a system in the many-body localization regime. We also show that the spin accumulation speed is correlated with the fidelity susceptibility and can also be used to distinguish the two phases.

description: The question for the capacity of a given gas network, i.e., determining the maximal amount of gas that can be transported by a given network, appears as an essential question that network operators and political administrations are regularly faced with. In that context we present a novel mathematical approach to assist gas network operators in managing uncertainty with respect to the demand and in exposing free network capacities while increasing reliability of transmission and supply. The approach is based on the rigorous examination of optimization problems with nonlinear probabilistic constraints. As consequence we deal with solving an optimization problem with joint probabilistic constraints over an infinite system of random inequalities. We will show that the inequality system can be reduced to a finite one in the situation of considering a tree network topology. A detailed study of the problem of maximizing free booked capacities in a stationary gas network is presented that comes up with an algebraic model involving Kirchhoff's first and second laws. The focus will be on both the theoretical and numerical side. We are going to validate a kind of rank two constraint qualification implying the differentiability of the considered capacity problem. At the numerical side we are going to solve the problem using a projected gradient decent method, where the function and gradient evaluations of the probabilistic constraints are performed by the approach of spheric-radial decomposition applied for multivariate Gaussian random variables and more general distributions.

description: Louis Poinsot has shown in 1854 that the motion of a rigid body, with one of its points fixed, can be described as the rolling without slipping of one cone, the 'body cone', along another, the 'space cone', with their common vertex at the fixed point. This description has been further refined by the second author in 1996, relating the geodesic curvatures of the spherical curves formed by intersecting the cones with the unit sphere in Euclidean $\mathbb{R}^3$, thus enabling a reconstruction of the motion of the body from knowledge of the space cone together with the (time dependent) magnitude of the angular velocity vector. In this article we show that a similar description exists for a time dependent family of unimodular $ 2 \times 2 $ matrices in terms of rolling cones in 3-dimensional Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}^{2,1}$ and the associated 'pseudo spherical' curves, in either the hyperbolic plane $H^2$ or its Lorentzian analog $H^{1,1}$. In particular, this yields an apparently new geometric interpretation of Schrödinger's (or Hill's) equation $ \ddot x + q(t) x =0 $ in terms of rolling without slipping of curves in the hyperbolic plane.

description: This research applies recent developments in the analysis of firm location determinants, applying local geographic concentration indices to determine and the extent to which clustering influences the location decisions of cellulosic biofuel facilities. We focus on ethanol production from switchgrass and drop-in fuels made through pyrolysis. The economic sectors analyzed would be involved in the extraction, production, and distribution of intermediate and final fuel products, and the financing of businesses supporting these activities. We augment a cost-minimizing site location model with information about local employment patterns that would be engaged with a switchgrass-based cellulosic fuel sector. Employment concentration is determined using recent developments in the derivation of the traditional location quotient as a maximum likelihood estimator. The null hypotheses are that differences arising from advantages associated with each county are not different. Rejection of this hypothesis suggests that some sites have comparative advantage with respect to location advantage. The null hypothesis also suggests that the inclusion of labor concentration information in the overall cost structure will not impact the distribution of facilities. Region-wide economic impacts that follow the addition of multiple facilities are not expected to be different after inclusion of the employment location quotients as site suitability criteria.
The Experience of HR practices and processes in organisations in Lebanon

Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This study aims to find out how Lebanese culture influences HRM practices within different types of organisations operating in Lebanon. It explores the effects of globalization on the work environment in Lebanon, the distinctive features of the Lebanese HRM practices, and the ways in which best practice may be considered useful in the context of HRM in the country. The research integrates qualitative and quantitative data in a sequential exploratory strategy.This was achieved by gathering quantitative data from an online survey targeting Lebanese HR professionals via social media networks. The survey was followed by semi-structured interviews with professionals, the majority of them responsible for HR in their organisations. The research highlights how HR practice is fundamentally informed by the particular cultural context of Lebanon, and that this has implications on the development of HRM as a profession,which has not yet achieved the status of essential, objective and strategic occupation.The study contributes to the limited knowledge on human resource management practices in Lebanon and the literature around the impact of national culture on the organisation and its HR policies and practices. The thesis also adds to the literature around the segregation in employment on the basis of gender. In particular, the study fills gaps in the literature about the segregation at work based on marital status and age. In addition to the novel technique of using a professional social network such as LinkedIn to collect valuable quantitative data, the results produced by this research can be used by Lebanese HR professionals for the development and improvement of HRM practices at their organisations.

description: Price studies have been extensively investigated in agricultural economics literature. In the grain market, it seems that more information is available in terms of price behavior and relationships across markets. In the dairy market, on the other hand, price information is more limited. There are studies related to milk price relationships, but none explore the short-run and long-run relationship between milk prices across countries. This analysis aims to fill this gap in the literature. Insights from this work, which may help private companies and policymakers on how milk prices behave across the world, are provided. Data are offered by the IFCN Dairy research network, located in Kiel, Germany, and includes monthly price data from the United States, Brazil, Germany, the Netherlands, Russia, South Africa, India, China, and New Zealand. A Vector Error Correction (VEC) model is used to summarize the long-run relationship among prices from these nine countries. Contemporaneous innovations are modeled as an acyclic graph using recently developed algorithms from the machine literature. Forecast error variance decompositions are also estimated to visualize the relationships among variables in the system. As for validation, out-of-sample forecasts from the estimated Vector Autoregression (VAR) and VEC models are performed and the latter performed better. This forecasting exercise also supports the imposition of a low number of cointegrating vectors, which coheres well with trace tests and information criteria. The United States, New Zealand, and the IFCN milk price play an important role in the international dairy market.
Magnetospheric processes at cool stars and exoplanets

description: Magnetospheric processes and phenomena have been studied in great detail at Solar System planets. This thesis investigates the occurrence of these processes at cool stars and exoplanets, and the generation and detectability of magnetospheric radio emission via the electron-cyclotronmaser instability. Three detailed studies are presented within this thesis. The first study explores magnetospherically-driven radio emission at ultracool dwarfs (UCDs), using an analytic model of Jupiter’s middle magnetosphere to explain a component of radio emission observed from a fraction of fast-rotating UCDs. Key parameters governing the generation of auroral radio emission for both open and closed magnetospheres are investigated, and it is found that a broad range of these parameters are capable of producing emission consistent with the observed luminosity. The next study examines the detectability of radio emission from M-dwarf exoplanetary systems generated through sub-Alfvénic interaction between the exoplanet and stellar wind. Radio flux densities are estimated for three promising case studies, TRAPPIST-1, Proxima Centauri, and NGTS-1, finding that sporadic bursts of radio emission are feasibly detectable with currently available telescopes. A wider survey of exoplanet-hosting M-dwarfs identifies eleven further systems with potentially detectable radio flux densities >10 uJy. The final study uses a numerical magneto hydrodynamic model to investigate the interaction between Sun-like stars and magnetised hot Jupiters. The emergent field-aligned current system is modelled, and auroral radio power is calculated in post-processing. Simulations are run to study the effect of interplanetary magnetic field strength and ionospheric Pedersen conductance. Radio emission is also investigated as a function of orbital distance from the host star, finding a relation between distance and radio power consistent with previous analytic studies of the same systems.

description: The variety of the normal-state magnetic properties of cuprate high-Tc superconductors is interpreted based on the self-consistent solution of the self-energy equations for the two-dimensional t-J model. The observed variations of the spin correlation length with the hole concentration x, of the spin susceptibility with x and temperature T and the scaling of the static uniform susceptibility are well reproduced by the calculated results. The nonmonotonic temperature dependence of the Cu spin-lattice relaxation rate is connected with two competing tendencies in the low-frequency susceptibility: its temperature decrease due to the increasing spin gap and the growth of the susceptibility in this frequency region with the temperature broadening of the maximum in the susceptibility.

description: Water shortage is likely intensified by climate change. Although advanced irrigation technologies and agricultural water management practices are widely promoted, farmers’ adoption behavior is not well understood in the climate change context. This study helps fill this gap by assessing how climate risk affects such adoption. We construct moment-based climate risk measures that better reflect its volatility and extremes and apply them in multiple discrete choice modeling procedures. We also extend existing literature focusing solely on irrigation technologies to include conservation practices such as the Best Management Practices (BMPs), thereby providing a more complete picture of conservation practices. Jointly using the Arkansas subset of USDA Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey and Census of Agriculture over years and multiple climate records, we find climate risk plays a role in the adoption of advanced irrigation technologies and BMPs, and suggest the policy relevance of the consideration of climate risk in understanding farmers’ technology adoption.

description: Non-exotic scalar-meson resonances in S-wave meson-meson scattering are studied in the light of a unitarised Schroedinger model. The resulting poles in the scattering matrices, by analytical continuation into the complex-energy plane, are grouped into nonets of isoscalar, isodoublet, and isotriplet resonances. All singularities can be related to quark-antiquark confinement states, the light-quark nonet of which has ground states at 1.3 to 1.4 GeV and level spacings of some 300-400 MeV, except for a nonet of light scalar mesons below 1 GeV. All non-exotic S-wave resonances reported by experiment fit into this scheme.

description: This study investigated how prestige seeking behavior influences food choices to the point of becoming a symbol of social status. Participants in the study were classified into unobserved latent classes according to their prestige and social status seeking behavior. The majority of the participants were classified as “Utilitarian Buyers” who purchase goods based on their functionality and are not concerned with the prestige or social status of conspicuous products. In addition, there were three other latent classes found and based on their characteristics they were described as “Ambitious Shoppers”, “Affluent Elitists”, and “Prestige Lovers”. Evidence was found of prestige seeking behavior motivated by invidious comparison or higher-class individuals seeking to differentiate themselves from lower-class individuals; and also motivated by pecuniary emulation, or individuals from a lower class buying prestigious goods in order to be perceived as members of a higher class. Findings from this study revealed that the effects of differentiating food labeling attributes had a higher impact for individuals classified into classes with prestige-seeking behavior to attain an elevated social status.
Combining in silico and experimental methods to dissect the impact of L1 retrotransposons on the human transcriptome

description: Only the L1 family of LINEs is still active in humans, continuing to sculpt our genome by their mobilization. Databases documenting L1 diversity indicate that approximately 90% of the youngest human specific (L1Hs) show polymorphisms between individuals and many insertions occur within annotated genes. Retrotransposon Insertion Polymorphisms (RIPs), similar to other human genomic variation, such as copy number variation (CNVs) and SNPs, can impact the human transcriptome. Consequently, as the zygosity and retrotransposition activity of L1 elements can show significant variation between individuals, this variability likely extends to the transcriptome. LINE-1 has different mechanisms to affect host gene expression. Targeting some of these mechanisms in the current project enabled us to investigate differences between LINE-1 and FAM65B gene expression in cell lines of different LINE-1 zygosity. Also, the combination of 3'ATLAS (Amplification Typing of L1 Active Subfamilies) and NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) highlights ongoing retrotranspostion activity of LINE-1 elements in epithelial cancer cell lines. This combination identified 920 novel candidate insertions and some putative de novo insertions distributed across the panel cell lines.Functional examination of MORC2 gene knock out cell lines has provided evidence this gene (MORC2) plays a significant role in controlling global expression of LINE-1 elements. In addition, supporting the hypothesis that epigenetic regulators can affect LINE-1 host gene expression. LAMA2 gene expression is downregulated in a mutant cell line compared to a wildtype. Interestingly, MORC2 editing with CRISPR/Cas9 generated a mutant that down regulated global LINE-1 expression. This study demonstrates that intronic polymorphic LINE-1 insertions create genetic variation between individuals and this variation extends to host gene expression.

Determining the phases alpha and gamma from time-dependent CP violation in B0 decays to rho(omega) + pseudoscalar

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: A method is proposed for the determination of the unitarity angle alpha through tree penguin interference. The modes needed would be of the form B0/B0-bar -> rho0 M and B0/B0-bar -> omega M where M is spin-0 uu-bar/dd-bar meson, for instance M=pi0, eta, eta',a0 or f0. An analogous method can also determine gamma using M=KS or K_L. The validity of the theoretical approximations used may be tested by over determining alpha with several modes. If two or more modes are used, the determination has a four-fold ambiguity but additional information from pure penguin decays or theoretical estimates may be used to reduce the ambiguity to alpha, alpha+pi. The method as applied to determining gamma is probably less promising.

description: We discuss the influence of momentum-dependent correlations on the superconducting gap structure in iron-based superconductors. Within the weak coupling approach including self-energy effects at the one-loop spin-fluctuation level, we construct a dimensionless pairing strength functional which includes the effects of quasiparticle renormalization. The stationary solution of this equation determines the gap function at $T_c$. The resulting equations represent the simplest generalization of spin fluctuation pairing theory to include the effects of an anisotropic quasiparticle weight. We obtain good agreement with experimentally observed anisotropic gap structures in LiFeAs, indicating that the inclusion of quasiparticle renormalization effects in the existing weak-coupling theories can account for the observed anomalies in the gap structure of Fe-based superconductors.

description: Food consumption has significant impact on sodium intake, with which overconsumption will result in negative healthy impact on individuals. Using National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2010 and regression analyses, we examined the effect of consumption of various food groups on the sodium intake of American adults (19 years of age or older) and changes in the impacts of various food consumption on sodium intake over the study period. The impact of respondents’ demographics are also considered. Results demonstrate that per calorie consumption of oils, fruits, fruit juices, fruit products, sugars and sweets, deep-yellow vegetables and beverages and water have no significant impact on individuals’ sodium intake. Milk and milk products and cakes contain less sodium per calorie, while fish, tomatoes, other types of meat products, dark-green vegetables, crackers and cheese contain higher sodium per calorie. The contribution of almost half of the food groups to individuals’ sodium intake remain unchanged over years.

description: This paper applies the stochastic Translog input distance function and stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) method to evaluate the operational efficiency of farm lenders in the commercial banking industry and the Farm Credit System (FCS). This paper uses the late 2000s recession as a backdrop for scrutinizing the operating decisions of commercial banks and FCS lending units. The model is applied as a comparative analytical frame work to analyze the operating strategies and efficiencies of commercial banks and FCS lending units. Moreover, under the same efficiency analytical framework, this study investigates the effect of the size of lending operations on the lenders’ efficiency and input allocation decisions. This study also adopts an intertemporal perspective by looking at comparative commercial banks and FCS efficiency before and after the most recent financial crisis. The study’s analyses of changes in both technical efficiency (TE) and allocative efficiency (AE) will help clarify the contributions of different factors to total factor productivity change and, thus help commercial banks and FCS make future operating adjustments to maximize total factor productivity. This analysis may clarify any differences in input allocations and other operating decisions that define small and large lenders’ strategies to survive the tight financial conditions of the late 2000s.

description: This thesis investigates Iron Age metalwork object hoards from Britain (800 BC – AD 100), identifying geographical and chronological patterns in hoard contents, landscape locationand depositional processes. This significantly advances our understanding of object selection and the practices surrounding deposition in different times and places.Results demonstrate some continuation in depositional practice from the Late Bronze Age through to the Earliest Iron Age with a shift to site-focused deposition in the Middle Iron Age. From the Roman Iron Age (after 150 BC) object hoards were deposited at an increasingly diverse range of sites, with a wider variety of object types represented. A new object form, the coin, was introduced to Britain in the second century BC and this thesis examines the findspots of both object and coin hoards to identify similarities and differences in deposition. Two case study areas, south-west and south-east England, were selected to explore local variation in hoarding practices, in particular the relationship between metalwork hoarding and other forms of deposition, including burial of material on settlements, and contemporary finds from graves, rivers and shrine sites.

description: We explore the fundamental limits to which reionization histories can be constrained using only large-scale cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy measurements. The redshift distribution of the fractional ionization $x_e(z)$ affects the angular distribution of CMB polarization. We project constraints on the reionization history of the universe using low-noise full-sky temperature and E-mode measurements of the CMB. We show that the measured TE power spectrum, $\hat C_\ell^\mathrm{TE}$, has roughly one quarter of the constraining power of $\hat C_\ell^\mathrm{EE}$ on the reionization optical depth $τ$, and its addition improves the precision on $τ$ by 20% over using $\hat C_\ell^\mathrm{EE}$ only. We also use a two-step reionization model with an additional high redshift step, parametrized by an early ionization fraction $x_e^\mathrm{min}$, and a late reionization step at $z_\mathrm{re}$. We find that future high signal-to-noise measurements of the multipoles $10\leqslant\ell<20$ are especially important for breaking the degeneracy between $x_e^\mathrm{min}$ and $z_\mathrm{re}$. In addition, we show that the uncertainties on these parameters determined from a map with sensitivity $10\,\mathrm{μK\,arcmin}$ are less than 5% larger than the uncertainties in the noiseless case, making this noise level a natural target for future large sky area E-mode measurements.

description: Red kidney beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) contain bioactive compounds that are known to exhibit antidiabetic effects via inhibition of α-glucosidase. However, information on the nonpolar components that exhibit antidiabetic activity is limited. Here, we report the isolation and structure determination of components with α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, which were obtained from the hexane extract of red kidney beans. Triacylglycerols (TAGs) were identified as the major components exhibiting inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase. The chemical structure of TAGs was determined by a combination of GC-MS and UPLC-MS/MS. The primary TAGs identified were LnLnLn (trilinolenin) and LnLLn (1,3-dilinolenoyl-2-linoleoyl glycerol). The major fatty acids present in these TAGs were α-linolenic acid (ω-3) and linoleic acid (ω-6). These TAGs were also found to inhibit the α-glucosidase activity in a similar fashion as acarbose. These results suggest that TAGs have potency as antidiabetics and support the potential suitability of red kidney beans for diabetes treatment. The dominant lipophilic compound of red kidney bean were identified as triacylglycerol and known to have α-glucosidase inhibition activity

description: Native warm-season grasses (NWSGs) have demonstrated potential to reduce summer forage variability in the region, and there has been growing interest in the use of NWSGs as a lignocellulosic biomass crop. The objectives of this research were to determine if there was a difference in beef yield and net returns for grazing beef steers on three NWSGs during the summer months, and to determine the breakeven price of biomass a beef cattle producer would need to receive to use a dual-purpose grazing and biomass production system. Beef steers grazed switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) (SG), a big bluestem (Andropogon gerardii) and indiangrass (Sorghastrum nutans) mixture (BBIG), and eastern gamagrass (Tripsacum dactyloides) (EG) at two locations in Tennessee from 2010-2012. The dual-purpose grazing occurred for the first 30-days of summer and the remaining biomass was harvested post-dormancy, and full-season grazing occurred for 90-days of summer. Budgets were developed for each NWSG to calculated net returns, and mixed models were estimated to determine differences in beef yield and net returns across each NWSG and location. Expected yield and net returns to full-season grazing were not difference across the three NWSGs at AP. However, expected yield and net returns to full-season grazing were higher for BBIG than SG at HR.A profit-maximizing, risk neutral individual would increase net returns by grazing any of the NWSGs over marketing calves at weaning. The breakeven biomass prices ranged between $37-123 Mg−1 depending on the NWSG and location.

description: We derive the optimal exponent of the error probability of the quantum fixed-length pure state source coding in both cases of blind coding and visible coding. The optimal exponent is universally attained by Jozsa et al. (PRL, 81, 1714 (1998))'s universal code. In the direct part, a group representation theoretical type method is essential. In the converse part, Nielsen and Kempe (PRL, 86, 5184 (2001))'s lemma is essential.

description: In modern conditions, characterized by the growing importance of foreign trade between the countries, relations of a country with international environment play an increasingly important role in economic development. Over the last decade the process of economic integration through the removal of barriers for the free movement of goods, services, money and people has improved job creation and economic growth. From economic cooperation with foreign countries should expect positive effects on the economy of the state if the external economic factor used in accordance with the plans and programs of economic development of a country. Thereto, there are social forces that can decide relatively independently to all elements of internal development and cooperation with foreign countries. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the CEFTA 2006 on the foreign trade of agricultural products in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In this respect it may be noted that foreign trade of agricultural products has an impact on the agricultural sector in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
