description: We present results of the narrow-band Halpha and [SII] imaging survey of Mon R1 association, performed with the 1 m Schmidt telescope of the Byurakan Observatory. Our observations covered one degree field near the center of the association. As a result of this study twenty new Herbig-Haro knots were discovered, some of which form collimated outflows. Among the most extended ones are HH 1203 and HH 1196, which have a length near one parsec or even more. In the course of search for the probable sources of HH objects several new nebulous stars were found. A list of all nebulous stellar objects in the Mon R1 area under study is presented, with the detailed description of most interesting objects. The near infrared data from the GLIMPSE360 and WISE surveys allowed to find several more objects, related to Mon R1, some of them with optical counterparts, as well as to outline at least three probable H_2 collimated flows from the deeply embedded pre-main-sequence objects. The probable members of Mon R1 were selected by their distances, their bolometric luminosities and extinctions were estimated. Among the outflow sources three embedded objects with luminosities greater than 10 L(sun) were found. The mean distance to Mon R1 complex is estimated as 715 pc.

Publisher: name: PSL Quarterly Review
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Eurodollars, euro-dollar market, growth
subject: E44

description: The article provides in-depth analysis of Euro-dollars and the “Euro-dollar market”. A lack of conceptual clarity has contributed to serious differences in the experts’ explanations of the fast growth of the Euro-dollar business and their evaluation of it. Hence, the author engages in an extensive conceptual and theoretical preparation on the pressing issues and controversies of the subject. While definitive conclusions are not reached on all the issues, the author attempts to show why some conclusions cannot be obtained on the basis of the empirical evidence available at present and why certain conceptual obscurities have led to dead ends.

Money markets in the United States of America

Subjects: subject: Money markets, United States, Eurodollars, NCD, securities, Federal funds, Federal Reserve
subject: E44, E58

description: The article presents a detailed description of the money markets in the U.S. In recent years, new markets such as bankers’ acceptances, commercial paper, Negotiable Certificates of Deposit and the external extension of the New York market into Euro-dollars have have been established. Despite the growth in some of these markets, however, the main markets in the U.S. remain those in Government securities and Federal funds. It is through these markets that idle money in the U.S. is mobilised and distributed across the country as a whole. In this context, full use is made of correspondent relationships and both the banks and the dealers attempt to tap every possible source of funds. The intensity of this search for new sources of money has had the effect of binding together much more closely the various parts of the financial mechanism and has made it much more sensitive to Federal Reserve action.

description: Information-theoretic uncertainty relations formulate the joint immeasurability of two non-commuting observables in terms of information entropies. The trade-off of the accuracy in the outcome of two successive measurements manifests in entropic noise-disturbance uncertainty relations. Recent theoretical analysis predicts that projective measurements are not optimal, with respect to the noise-disturbance trade-offs. Therefore the results in our previous letter [PRL 115, 030401 (2015)] are outperformed by general quantum measurements. Here, we experimentally test a tight information-theoretic measurement uncertainty relation for three-outcome positive-operator valued measures (POVM), using neutron spin-1/2 qubits. The obtained results violate the lower bound for projective measurements as theoretically predicted.

description: Heutige Kulturen sind nicht homogen und klar voneinander getrennt, sondern vermischt und durch die Vielfalt ihrer Individuen geprägt. Wolfgang Welsch hat diesen Wandel mit dem Konzept der Transkulturalität beschrieben. Betrachtet man das Transkulturalitätskonzept unter einem pädagogischen Blickwinkel zeigt sich, dass das Bilderbuch eine geeignete Methode ist, um Transkulturalität auf verschiedenen Ebenen zu vermitteln und damit einen Beitrag für ein friedliches Zusammenleben zu leisten. Die vorliegende Masterarbeit zeigt durch eine Literaturrecherche auf, inwiefern die Transkulturalität und deren Vermittlung durch Bilderbücher auch für die Heilpädagogische Früherziehung eine Relevanz hat. Mithilfe einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse wird ausserdem ein Fragenkatalog erstellt, welcher Transkulturalität in Bilderbüchern beschreibt. Anhand einer exemplarischen Bilderbuchanalyse wird der Fragenkatalog erprobt und dessen Eignung festgestellt.
Cartels and competition in British banking: a back- ground study
Creators: name: PRESSNELL, L.S.
Publisher: name: PSL Quarterly Review
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Britain, financial markets, competition, banking, capital market, monetary authorities
subject: E44, G21, E52, E58

description: The work takes up the debate over competition in financial markets in Britain. It is mainly concerned with the issues involved in, and the origins of, existing constraints upon banking competition. It is argued that the problem is much wider than the relatively narrow one of banks’ restrictiveness. In particular, it is urged that Britain’s banking problems should be viewed in the context of financial markets, especially the long-term capital market, as a whole. The author first considers the relative decline of commercial banking and the traditional structural influences against competitiveness. Bank lending, the capital market, and official constraints are then examined before a history of restrictions on interest rate competition is provided. Finally, the relationship between bank competitiveness and the monetary authorities and the argument for cheap financing for business is assessed. JEL: E44, G21, E52, E58

Publisher: name: PSL Quarterly Review

Subjects: subject: Finland, Finnish mark, devaluation, balance of payments deficit, growth, employment, price stability
subject: F32, E31, E24, E41

description: Criticism of the adjustable peg system of international payments is mounting and well-known economists have gone as far as to deny that devaluation can have positive results in the modern world. Accordingly, the present article examines the latest devaluation of the Finnish mark which took place in October 1967 and was by about 24 percent. After briefly touching on the factors which led to Finland’s serious balance-of-payments deficit, the author discusses the main components in the measures which accompanied the devaluation, with particular attention to the “sliding” export levy and the incomes policy. The results obtained by the end of 1969 in terms of growth, employment, external balance and price stability are then described and the reasons for the apparent short-term success of this experiment are evaluated.

Remarks on the measurement and the determinants of the money supply
Creators: name: SCHNEIDER, E.
Publisher: name: PSL Quarterly Review
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Monetary policy, money stock, supply, determinants, central bank
subject: E51, E52, E58

description: The renaissance of monetary policy after the second world war has naturally led to an increase of interest not only in the problems of measurement of the money stock and its changes through time, but also factors which determine the size and changes of the money stock at any time. The present work first briefly considers the statistical aspects of the determination of the money supply. The problem of the determinants of the money supply is then examined. The author argues that the actual size of the money stock depends not only on the behaviour of the banks but also non the behaviour of the decision making units in the real sector and, therefore, is an endogenously determined quantity within the framework of the total system. Hence, the actual stock and its changes cannot be controlled by the central bank. JEL: E51, E52, E58

A critical note on the quantity theory of money
Creators: name: KELLY, A.
Publisher: name: PSL Quarterly Review
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Quantity theory of money, income, prices, monetary control, fiscal policy, Keynesians
subject: B22, E41, E51, E52

description: Quantity theorists assert that “money matters” and mean by this that changes in the quantity of money have substantial and important effects on key economic variables like real income or the price level. Unfortunately, the Quantity Theory discussion of the impact of changes in the quantity of money on income, prices, etc., suffers from unrigorous examination of basic propositions. The present paper shows that failure to examine the processes whereby the quantity of money can be changed has led to serious error in the case of the Quantity Theory. Quantity theorists have a revealed preference for monetary control of economic instability while Keynesians emphasise fiscal policy. Yet, according to the author’s analysis, the changes in the quantity of money fundamental to monetary policy may be difficult to accomplish under Quantity Theory assumptions and more easily accomplished under Keynesian assumptions.

Revisiting the human right to water
Creators: name: Parmar, Pooja
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis critically examines the mainstream discourse on the human right to water and suggests that it is narrow, inadequate, and meaningless to all those who see in such a forrnulation neither a recognition of their suffering, nor a possibility of its mitigation. In addition to highlighting the limitations of the mainstream discourse, the thesis also sheds light on alternative ways of formulating a more meaningful right to water. The thesis first traces the origin and legal basis of the human right to water within international law. Thereafter, four broad themes that constitute the mainstream discourse on the right to water are identified based on an analysis of the ’soft law’ and prominent scholarly literature on the topic. These are - (i) the right to water as an entitlement, (ii) the right to water as a consumer right, (iii) the relationship between the right to water and the right to development, and (iv) the right to water and governance. The abovementioned aspects of the mainstream discourse are revisited and problematized by using critiques of human rights drawn from critical legal pluralism, post-colonial studies, critical development theory, post-modemism and studies broadly referred to as the Third World Approaches to International Law. It is suggested that when viewed from alternative perspectives, the right to water, as conceptualised within the mainstream discourse, appears as being meaningless to people in ’most of the world’. The inability of the mainstream discourse to look beyond the dominant notions of ’rights’, ’development’ and ’governance’ and the assumptions they are based upon, and further, the failure to incorporate other meanings reduces the emancipatory potential of the human right to water. Adopting an alternative approach, the thesis documents a grassroots movement in Plachimada in India which grew from the people’s resistance to the excessive extraction of groundwater by a subsidiary of the Coca-Cola Company. The case study illustrates the inadequacy of the mainstream formulation of the right to water. It also reveals opportunities for understanding and defining the right ’from below’ and creates hope for the recovery of its emancipatory potential.

description: While in the 1950s Soviet output grew faster than most other industrial countries, the early 1960s has seen a noticeable slowing down in growth. The present paper puts these economic developments into perspective to judge the efficacy of Soviet policy in its attempt to achieve maximum growth and transform an underdeveloped into a developed country. The author first assesses Soviet performance and policy at different stages of development, before assessing the level attained. The purposes for which output is used and the major factors responsible for Soviet performance are then analysed. Finally, likely future developments are considered. JEL: P27, O40

Developments in the commodity composition, market distribution, and competitiveness of Italy’s foreign trade, 1955-1963

Publisher: name: PSL Quarterly Review
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Italy, foreign trade, economic growth, exports, imports
subject: F10, O52

description: Italy’s foreign trade increased spectacularly in the decade ending in 1963, a major factor contributing to its rapid economic growth in this period. However, following this period a new set of conditions emerged, resulting in an easing in the external payments situation. 1963 thus appears to mark a turning point in the rate and pattern of Italy’s economic growth. The present paper analyses this shift by reviewing the major developments that have occurred in foreign trade in the preceding years. The author determines the contributions to changes in total Italian exports which may be attributable to changes in the commodity composition, market distribution, and competitiveness of these exports. In addition, imports are examined with particular reference to changes in their commodity composition and regions of origin. JEL: F10, O52

Complete complementarity relations for multipartite pure states

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Complementarity relations for wave-particle duality are saturated only for pure, single-quanton, quantum states. For a completely incoherent state, it is known that wave and particle quantifiers can reach zero, and hence no information about the wave and particle aspects of the system can be obtained. This means that the information is being shared with another systems, and quantum correlations can be seen as responsible for the loss of purity of the quanton, provided that the quanton is part of a multipartite pure quantum system. In this paper, by exploring the purity of bi- and tri-partite pure quantum states, we show that it is possible to obtain complete complementarity relations. This procedure allows us to create a general framework for obtaining complete complementarity relations for a subsystem that belongs to an arbitrary multi-partite quantum system in a pure state. Besides, by some simple examples, we show that if the predictability measure is changed then the correlation measure must also be changed in order to obtain complete complementarity relations for pure cases.

The pattern of change in Latin American banking: an overall view

Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Latin America, banking, financial structure, central banks, monetary instruments, policy
subject: G21, G28

description: Amidst substantial political and economic change, the central banks of Latin America have outgrown their formative phase, reflecting in their development the pervasive effects of internal and external influence. Their contribution to the changing pattern of the economies has been reflected in the promotion of new ways and instruments of financing, the support of new types of financial institutions in public and private fields, and the assumption of intermediary roles between the government and the financial community at home, and between these and foreign and international institutions. The present work provides a general analysis of these developments in Latin American banking. The author first considers the impact of change on the financial structure before looking at the place and role of central banks. The development of monetary instruments and the framework of monetary policy are then analysed. Finally, the changing scope of the financial system is examined. JEL: G21, G28

World inflation and domestic monetary stability

Subjects: subject: Inflation, monetary policy, fiscal policy, flexible exchange rates, exchange rates, exchange parities
subject: E31, E42, E52, E62

description: Since the end of the Second World War the world economy has, apart from brief interludes of price stability, been in the grip of continuous inflation. No country seems to have managed to escape this world inflation entirely, although a few have made the very greatest efforts to do so. The present article considers why these efforts were in vain and if there really is no defence against “imported” world inflation. The author analyses the four types of policy for avoiding inflation - restrictive monetary and fiscal policy, export of capital, periodic changes in exchange parities and flexible exchange rates. The analysis suggests that the first two are least recommendable in the face of chronic balance of payments surpluses because they do not eradicate the surplus itself and can be sustained for only a relatively short period of time. The latter two do eliminate the external surplus, however, in the face of continuous world inflation, periodic revaluation does so only temporarily while flexible rates represent a permanent solution. The author concludes that world inflation can be checked only if there is an international monetary order which keeps reserves so scarce that no country feels able to allow inflation to proceed.

description: The paper has two main objects. The first, which is essentially descriptive, is to provide an account of British direct investment in Western Europe in relation to British direct investment as a whole. In attempting this the authors make uses not only of official data but also of some of the preliminary results of a private enquiry undertaken by the authors themselves. The second objective is to consider, so far as the data and economic theory permit, the costs and benefits accruing to the United Kingdom from direct investment in Western Europe. This has both long and short run aspects. The principal conclusion of the paper is that while the official and other data available make it possible to give a fairly comprehensive statistical description of British direct investment in Europe, it is not yet possible to make any confident judgement on the real costs and benefits of such investment.

description: Tidal dissipation due to turbulent viscosity in the convective regions of giant stars plays an important role in shaping the orbits of pre-common envelope systems. Such systems are possible sources of transients and close compact binary systems that will eventually merge and produce detectable gravitational wave signals. Most previous studies of the onset of common envelope episodes have focused on circular orbits and synchronously rotating donor stars under the assumption that tidal dissipation can quickly spin up the primary and circularize the orbit before the binary reaches Roche-lobe overflow (RLO). We test this assumption by coupling numerical models of the post main sequence stellar evolution of massive-stars with the model for tidal dissipation in convective envelopes developed in Vick & Lai (2020) $-$ a tidal model that is accurate even for highly eccentric orbits with small pericentre distances. We find that, in many cases, tidal dissipation does not circularize the orbit before RLO. For a $10~M_\odot$ ($15~M_\odot$) primary star interacting with a $1.4~M_\odot$ companion, systems with pericentre distances within 3 AU (6 AU) when the primary leaves the main sequence will retain the initial orbital eccentricity when the primary grows to the Roche radius. Even in systems that tidally circularize before RLO, the donor star may be rotating subsynchronously at the onset of mass transfer. Our results demonstrate that some possible precursors to double neutron star systems are likely eccentric at the Roche radius. The effects of pre-common envelope eccentricity on the resulting compact binary merit further study.

The lags in monetary policy. An assessment of alternative approaches
Creators: name: ARGY, V.
Publisher: name: PSL Quarterly Review
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Monetary policy, lags
subject: E52

description: Fiscal and monetary policy discussions in the early post-Keynesian literature were largely conducted against a background of an unlagged system. The main interest of writers at the time was in assessing the size of the response in the implementation of a variety of policy instruments and little attention was paid to the relationship between the timing of policy actions and the lag structure operative in particular economies. More recently, however, a number of questions have been raised regarding the possibility that monetary-fiscal instruments may on account of these lags prove to be destabilising. The present paper is concerned with lags in monetary policy alone, outlining four different possible approaches to the lag problem. JEL: E52

description: This article aims to briefly understand and evaluate the main external and internal factors that impact directly on human resources development area within the organisations, mainly related to multinational companies. Also, it discusses the various aspects and influences on HRD-(Human Resources Development) such as societal, organisational/local, global, that impacts on costs, environment, regulations, policies, culture, beliefs, technology and values. This research was carried out by way of a literature review. This is important to demonstrate, explain and evaluate the current existent literature about this specific theme covered in this article. Furthermore, through this review we compared previous research on HRD. In conclusion, there is a discussion on the HRD´s importance for companies and professionals, as well as recommendations for companies` concerns. Overall, HRD professionals should be flexible to adapt to external trends, change at the right step and develop the competencies required by their organisations.

description: Hybrid beamforming is a promising technology for 5G millimetre-wave communications. However, its implementation is challenging in practical multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems because non-convex optimization problems have to be solved, introducing additional latency and energy consumption. In addition, the channel-state information (CSI) must be either estimated from pilot signals or fed back through dedicated channels, introducing a large signaling overhead. In this paper, a hybrid precoder is designed based only on received signal strength indicator (RSSI) feedback from each user. A deep learning method is proposed to perform the associated optimization with reasonable complexity. Results demonstrate that the obtained sum-rates are very close to the ones obtained with full-CSI optimal but complex solutions. Finally, the proposed solution allows to greatly increase the spectral efficiency of the system when compared to existing techniques, as minimal CSI feedback is required.

The Porter Commission on Canadian banking and finance
Creators: name: CHANT, J.F.

Subjects: subject: Canada, banking system, financial system, markets, Bank Act
subject: G21, G28

description: Appointment in 1960 of the Royal Commission on Banking and Finance, now known as the Porter Commission, was precipitated by a growing dissatisfaction with the performance of the Canadian economy during the late 1950s when the rate of economic growth was among the slowest of western economies. The Report of the Royal Commission on Banking and Finance, representing over two years of study by the Commission, makes a diversity of recommendations toward improvement of the workings of the Canadian financial system. The present article reviews three issues that played important roles in the Report and are likely to arouse controversy: government intervention in financial markets; the commission’s views on economic policy; competition between financial institutions. In the overall assessment, the author concludes that the Report represents a sound beginning for revision of the Bank Act. JEL: G21, G28

description: Im Rahmen des Vortrags werden drei Tools vorgestellt, mit denen die ZB Zürich ihre Daten für die Forschung zugänglich macht, um datenbasierte Analysen und Digital Humanities-Projekte besser zu unterstützen. Dabei wird auch der größere Entwicklungskontext der Bibliothek beleuchtet, in dem diese neuen Services entstehen.


Das erste Tool richtet sich an Forschende, die mit Bildmaterial arbeiten. Durch die Nutzung des Standards IIIF können Bilddaten deutlich effizienter nachgenutzt, gesammelt und geteilt werden.


Das zweite Tool ist disziplinenübergreifend und unterstützt Forschende bei der Erstellung eines individuell auf ihre Forschungszwecke abgestimmten Korpus. Die neue Datenexport-Funktion im Katalog swisscollections ermöglicht den Massendownload von Text-, Bild- und Metadaten.


Das dritte Tool besteht aus einer Reihe von Jupyter Notebooks, die Forschenden erlauben, komplexe Abfragen an den schweizweiten Katalogverbund SLSP zu stellen, Metadaten herunterzuladen und diese zu analysieren. Bereits mit diesen Möglichkeiten lassen sich bestimmte Forschungsfragen gezielt bearbeiten.

Fixed Point Strategies in Data Science
Creators: name: Combettes, Patrick L.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The goal of this paper is to promote the use of fixed point strategies in data science by showing that they provide a simplifying and unifying framework to model, analyze, and solve a great variety of problems. They are seen to constitute a natural environment to explain the behavior of advanced convex optimization methods as well as of recent nonlinear methods in data science which are formulated in terms of paradigms that go beyond minimization concepts and involve constructs such as Nash equilibria or monotone inclusions. We review the pertinent tools of fixed point theory and describe the main state-of-the-art algorithms for provably convergent fixed point construction. We also incorporate additional ingredients such as stochasticity, block-implementations, and non-Euclidean metrics, which provide further enhancements. Applications to signal and image processing, machine learning, statistics, neural networks, and inverse problems are discussed.
Imported inflation and monetary policy. A comment
Creators: name: OPPENHEIMER, P.M.
Publisher: name: PSL Quarterly Review
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Inflation, monetary policy, fixated exchange rates
subject: E31, E42, E52

description: In their article Imported inflation and monetary policy, I.O. Scott and W.E. Schmidt criticise the argument that monetary policy cannot be used as a weapon against inflation in a surplus country under a regime of fixed exchange rates. The present note examines their criticism and finds it wanting in several respects. The author argues that the “external constraint” is a significant barrier to the imposition of tight money in a surplus country - unless the supply of foreign capital is inelastic from a very early stage, which would be unusual. Moreover, the larger and more persistent the overall surplus, the greater the eventual risk of “internal constraints” becoming operative as well, thus putting another limitation on monetary policy at a subsequent stage.
