Population Adaptation

In recent years, living conditions of a population have changed rapidly due to complex social, economic, cultural, political and other processes. This naturally leads not only to a transformation of the system of values, motivation, worldview, but also an entire way of life. High rates of these changes simultaneously led a delegation given, on the one hand, a diversity of forms of response behavior, from the other – their gradual integration into the socio-economic relations in a search result models of individual and collective adaptation to a new dynamic environment, characterized by high uncertainty and heterogeneity. Thus, the purpose of this study is to identify and describe the main models of population adaptation on an interdisciplinary basis, not limited to an analysis of complex processes within a single field of knowledge. In this regard, the task is to find a way to harmonize (coordinate) different points of view on a nature of a single phenomenon. The object of our research is a variety of adaptation processes of a population to dynamically changing conditions of its life. At the same time, the subject should be a wide range of different types of interactions between a population and an external environment, as well as a population “within itself”, as part of the model of its adaptation to changing conditions. To achieve the goal and solve problems, a set of methods that complement each other is used, namely: theoretical analysis and synthesis, systematization and comparative analysis. As a result, it was found that population adaptation is a rather complex phenomenon, the study of which goes far beyond the formal framework of any one field of knowledge, being at their intersection, which requires the search for new approaches that allow integrating explanations of the nature of phenomena that are currently interpreted within their paradigms. The article presents the main types of models of population adaptation to dynamically changing socio-economic conditions of life, their features, identity and differences, as well as areas of application

The article is devoted to the analysis of the structure of the state economic policy of Ukraine implementation. The research uses a wide range of general and special legal methods and techniques of scientific research, in particular: analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction; comparative legal, structural-functional, formal-dogmatic methods. As a result of the study, the author substantiates the scientific position that determining the structure of economic policy of Ukraine and its elements, ensuring their coordinated interaction is a priority in the effective functioning of this area of public policy of Ukraine. Unfortunately, the current model of Ukraine's state economic policy in Ukraine is not able to ensure its effectiveness. As a model, it is proposed to take the one developed by German scientists, which provides for the consistent interaction of such elements of the structure of public policy as a strategy, a plan, the implementation of the plan and a report on the implementation of the plan. This model of implementation of economic policy of Ukraine should be the basis for public administration of the economy of Ukraine. Legal support of public administration by economic policy of Ukraine needs to be streamlined and strengthened. According to the author, this goal can be achieved through the adoption, first of all, of the National Strategy for Economic Development of Ukraine, which will become a strategic document. It should specify the purpose, goals, strategic objectives and principles of state economic policy of Ukraine. Based on it, plans for the implementation of this National Strategy should be developed as tactical documents. They should identify step-by-step measures to implement this strategy.

Subject. The article considers the reasons and tools for manipulation of financial statements and ways to identify it. Objectives. The purpose of the study is to reveal preconditions and the main instruments of misstatements of financial reporting. Methods. The study employs empirical and logical constructions, analysis and synthesis, generalization, systems approach, methods of comparative analysis. Results. I show the main ways of misstatements of financial reporting and formulate mechanisms to detect them. The findings can be useful for enhancing the financial accounting standards, as well as for all interested stakeholders of enterprises that use financial statements. Conclusions. The absence of adequate responsibility of auditors and appraisers involved in the preparation and confirmation of reporting contributes to the practice of misrepresentation of financial statements. On the one hand, a company hires appraisers or auditors and pays for their services, and the latter have no motivation to engage in any confrontation with the company that manipulates its financial statements. On the other hand, companies, pursuing various goals (meeting the KPIs by managers or in the run-up to the M&A transaction), apply window dressing and manipulate their financial statements, using a wide range of tools, like revenues reposting, provisions for impairment, reclassification of costs from the operating cost to capital cost category, etc.

Subject. The article investigates the specifics of strategic financial planning of enterprise operations in conditions of digitalization processes, as well as the introduction of advanced technologies in all spheres of social and economic life. It determines unique opportunities for company development in the international market. Objectives. The study aims at reviewing a set of economic relations and problems emerging in the process of strategic financial planning of enterprise performance in the digital economy, and developing recommendations to improve the financial strategic planning of economic entities. Methods. We employ methods of economic analysis and synthesis, and comparison. The paper rests on works by academic economists on the problems of finance, financial management, and planning. Results. We investigated the most important features and problems of strategic financial planning of enterprises in the digital economy, and how the digital era increases the level of competition of participants for economic dominance. Identified features of financial strategic planning of the corporation's activities in the digital economy are recommended for use in the corporate management system of an industrial enterprise. Conclusions. Improving the strategic management process is a stage of transformations in the digital economy. Enterprises create new priorities through using management models. At the same time, the role of fixed assets is reduced, and intangible assets and information accelerate the business. The effectiveness of company operations is often determined by the availability of accurate and timely information that reflects the necessary aspects of financial and economic practice.

Subject. This article examines the set of economic relations and problems emerging within the spatial development of settlements and constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Objectives. The article aims to develop key indicators and methods for assessing transport accessibility, potential market capacity, taking into account socio-economic characteristics, geographical location and the level of connectivity of areas. Methods. For the study, we used the methods of economic, statistical analysis and synthesis, comparison, and the k-means method. Results. The article proposes a system of cost-benefit equations for economic agents, and criteria, and a methodology for assessing the Transport Accessibility Index. Based on the clustering of Russian subjects by k-means, the article describes four groups of regions by level of transport accessibility. Conclusions and Relevance. The practical use of the approach presented to assess the Transport Accessibility Index will help form the basis for management decisions aimed at improving efficiency in the planning of spatial development and assessing the socio-economic effects of the proposed measures. The developed Transport Accessibility Index should be used as part of the analysis and monitoring of the effectiveness of infrastructure expenditures affecting changes in the transport accessibility of settlements within individual regions (municipalities).

We show that strong cation-anion interactions in a wide range of lithium-salt/ionic liquid mixtures result in a negative lithium transference number, using molecular dynamics simulations and rigorous concentrated solution theory. This behavior fundamentally deviates from the one obtained using self-diffusion coefficient analysis and agrees well with experimental electrophoretic NMR measurements, which accounts for ion correlations. We extend these findings to several ionic liquid compositions. We investigate the degree of spatial ionic coordination employing single-linkage cluster analysis, unveiling asymmetrical anion-cation clusters. Additionally, we formulate a way to compute the effective lithium charge that corresponds to and agrees well with electrophoretic measurements and show that lithium effectively carries a negative charge in a remarkably wide range of chemistries and concentrations. The generality of our observation has significant implications for the energy storage community, emphasizing the need to reconsider the potential of these systems as next generation battery electrolytes.<br>

Depth Interviews

A major late Soviet initiative, the ‘Fiery Revolutionaries’ (Plamennye revoliutsionery) series, was launched to rekindle popular enthusiasm for the revolution, eventually giving rise to over 150 biographies and historical novels authored by many key post-Stalinist writers. What new meanings did revolution take on as it was reimagined by writers including dissidents, leading historians, and popular historical novelists? How did their millions of readers engage with these highly varied texts? To what extent does this Brezhnev-era publishing phenomenon challenge the notion of late socialism as a time of ‘stagnation’, and how does it confirm it? Through exploring the complex processes of writing, editing, censorship, and reading of late Soviet literature, Revolution Rekindled highlights the dynamic negotiations that continued within Soviet culture well past the apparent turning point of 1968 through to the late Gorbachev era. It also complicates the opposition between ‘official’ and underground post-Stalinist culture by showing how Soviet writers and readers engaged with both, as they sought answers to key questions of revolutionary history, ethics, and ideology: it thus reveals the enormous breadth and vitality of the ‘historical turn’ amongst the late Soviet population. Revolution Rekindled is the first archival, oral history, and literary study of this unique late socialist publishing experiment, from its beginnings in the early 1960s to its collapse in the early 1990s. It draws on a wide range of previously untapped archives, uses in-depth interviews with Brezhnev-era writers, editors, and publishers, and assesses the generic and stylistic innovations within the series’ biographies and novels.

The contributions in this volume examine CETA, TTIP, and TiSA as prime examples of ‘mega-regional’ agreements that are central to a new orientation in international economic law in general and EU external economic relations in particular. While concentrating on CETA, TTIP, and TiSA as the main EU instruments in the worldwide turn to regional and mega-regional agreements, the book places these initiatives in the broader context of other mega-regional projects such as TPP. In the first two chapters, this book examines main motivations for negotiating mega-regional agreements and changing conceptions of international economic law. In nine further contributions, international experts examine sectoral issues such as the trade, investment, and dispute settlement disciplines envisaged in these ‘mega-regional’ agreements. Moreover, the progress made in intellectual property protection, the problems associated with data protection, disciplines on financial services, human rights, labour and environmental standards, issues of transparency and legitimacy, and the relationship between CETA, TTIP, and TiSA on the one hand and EU law on the other are analysed. Finally, four short contributions discuss fundamental questions surrounding these mega-regional agreements from an economic, a political science, and a legal perspective. The last chapter of this volume summarizes principal conclusions presented in the chapters of the book and highlights themes that recur in them.

Modes Of Interaction

In this article, we qualitatively explore the manner and style in which medical encounters between patients and general practitioners (GPs) are mutually conducted, as exhibited in situ in 10 consultations sourced from the One in a Million: Primary Care Consultations Archive in England. Our main objectives are to identify interactional modes, to develop a classification of these modes, and to uncover how modes emerge and shift both within and between consultations. Deploying an interactional perspective and a thematic and narrative analysis of consultation transcripts, we identified five distinctive interactional modes: question and answer (Q&A) mode, lecture mode, probabilistic mode, competition mode, and narrative mode. Most modes are GP-led. Mode shifts within consultations generally map on to the chronology of the medical encounter. Patient-led narrative modes are initiated by patients themselves, which demonstrates agency. Our classification of modes derives from complete naturally occurring consultations, covering a wide range of symptoms, and may have general applicability.

Trapped Bosons

We address the interplay of few lattice trapped bosons interacting with an impurity atom in a box potential. For the ground state, a classification is performed based on the fidelity allowing to quantify the susceptibility of the composite system to structural changes due to the intercomponent coupling. We analyze the overall response at the many-body level and contrast it to the single-particle level. By inspecting different entropy measures we capture the degree of entanglement and intraspecies correlations for a wide range of intra- and intercomponent interactions and lattice depths. We also spatially resolve the imprint of the entanglement on the one- and two-body density distributions showcasing that it accelerates the phase separation process or acts against spatial localization for repulsive and attractive intercomponent interactions, respectively. The many-body effects on the tunneling dynamics of the individual components, resulting from their counterflow, are also discussed. The tunneling period of the impurity is very sensitive to the value of the impurity-medium coupling due to its effective dressing by the few-body medium. Our work provides implications for engineering localized structures in correlated impurity settings using species selective optical potentials.

Fusion Ability

Human beings have developed fantastic abilities to integrate information from various sensory sources exploring their inherent complementarity. Perceptual capabilities are therefore heightened, enabling, for instance, the well-known "cocktail party" and McGurk effects, i.e., speech disambiguation from a panoply of sound signals. This fusion ability is also key in refining the perception of sound source location, as in distinguishing whose voice is being heard in a group conversation. Furthermore, neuroscience has successfully identified the superior colliculus region in the brain as the one responsible for this modality fusion, with a handful of biological models having been proposed to approach its underlying neurophysiological process. Deriving inspiration from one of these models, this paper presents a methodology for effectively fusing correlated auditory and visual information for active speaker detection. Such an ability can have a wide range of applications, from teleconferencing systems to social robotics. The detection approach initially routes auditory and visual information through two specialized neural network structures. The resulting embeddings are fused via a novel layer based on the superior colliculus, whose topological structure emulates spatial neuron cross-mapping of unimodal perceptual fields. The validation process employed two publicly available datasets, with achieved results confirming and greatly surpassing initial expectations.
