Canonical treatment of two dimensional gravity as an anomalous gauge theory
The extended phase space method of Batalin, Fradkin and Vilkovisky is applied to formulate two dimensional gravity in a general class of gauges. A BRST formulation of the light-cone gauge is presented to reveal the relationship between the BRST symmetry ...

Early Literacy Skills in Digital Games
ABSTRACT Early literacy skills, the basis of literacy skills, can be introduced to children through various stimuli and are supported by digital games with the increasing use of technology. This study aims to investigate the games children can download from the Play Store, which has high accessibility and allows them to play offline many times ...

Financing Constraints and the Family Farm: How do Families React? [PDF]
This paper explores the idea that off-farm income is used for investment in farm assets. Using Alabama farm data for the 1997-2004 period, we find that farm investment is more sensitive to off-farm than to on-farm income, and that this sensitivity is ...

Gauduchon metrics with prescribed volume form
We prove that on any compact complex manifold one can find Gauduchon metrics with prescribed volume form. This is equivalent to prescribing the Chern-Ricci curvature of the metrics, and thus solves a conjecture of Gauduchon from 1984.Comment: 29 pages ...

Cyclical Change of Partnership Practices in Hybrid Settings
Abstract Practice‐driven institutionalism (PDI) is a conceptual lens that explains how practices connect macro‐level phenomena with micro‐level behaviours. Effective practices matter in hybrid organisational settings, such as cross‐sector partnerships, where actors from diverse institutional backgrounds collaborate.

Massless BPS-Saturated States on the Two-Torus Moduli Sub-Space of Heterotic String
Within a four-dimensional, toroidally compactified heterotic string, we identify (quantized) charge vectors of electrically charged BPS-saturated states (along with the tower of SL(2,Z) related dyonic states), which preserve 1/2 of N=4 supersymmetry and ...

ABSTRACT Rationale We describe a new simplified sample preparation technique, based on dual chromatography for the analysis of 87Sr/86Sr in liquid agri‐food samples. We applied this approach for authenticating the origin of maple syrup products in Quebec, characterizing the 87Sr/86Sr of soil profiles from geologically distinct maple groves, including ...

Investment Risk in the Context of Price Changes on the Real Estate and Stock Markets
The residential real estate market is thought to show a tendency for wide fluctuations in prices, as a result of which price bubbles appear. This element of risk has a direct bearing on investors interested in speculation and those seeking to meet their ...

Hydrodynamics in 1+1 dimensions with gravitational anomalies
The constraints imposed on hydrodynamics by the structure of gauge and gravitational anomalies are studied in two dimensions. By explicit integration of the consistent gravitational anomaly, we derive the equilibrium partition function at second ...
