    Political cycles in income from privatization: The case of Albania

    No full text
    The phenomenon of manipulation of the economy by the incumbent for electoral purpose is called Political Business Cycles (PBC). Using policy control economic instruments, such as fiscal and monetary instruments, governments may manipulate the economy to gain electoral advantage by producing growth and decreasing unemployment before elections. Earlier research on PBC in Albania found clear evidence of fiscal expansion before elections. In addition to increased income from taxes and borrowing, another source of financing the increased fiscal expansion in transition countries may be income from privatization, which is also the object of the analysis of this paper. In our analysis we apply standard econometric approach, used widely for research related to PBC. We test if income from privatization increases before elections. We find statistically significant increase of income from privatization before general (parliamentary) elections, which may lead us to conclude that one of the reasons may be to finance increased expenditures before elections. Another motivation, behind this behavior of the incumbent, may be rent - seeking. These results are of particular interest, as it is for the first time that income from privatization is analyzed in conjunction with PBC. --Albania,Political Business Cycle,Privatization

    Convergence Rates for the Quantum Central Limit Theorem

    No full text
    Various quantum analogues of the central limit theorem, which is one of the cornerstones of probability theory, are known in the literature. One such analogue, due to Cushen and Hudson, is of particular relevance for quantum optics. It implies that the state in any single output arm of an nn-splitter, which is fed with nn copies of a centred state ρ\rho with finite second moments, converges to the Gaussian state with the same first and second moments as ρ\rho. Here we exploit the phase space formalism to carry out a refined analysis of the rate of convergence in this quantum central limit theorem. For instance, we prove that the convergence takes place at a rate O(n1/2)\mathcal{O}\left(n^{-1/2}\right) in the Hilbert--Schmidt norm whenever the third moments of ρ\rho are finite. Trace norm or relative entropy bounds can be obtained by leveraging the energy boundedness of the state. Via analytical and numerical examples we show that our results are tight in many respects. An extension of our proof techniques to the non-i.i.d.\ setting is used to analyse a new model of a lossy optical fibre, where a given mm-mode state enters a cascade of nn beam splitters of equal transmissivities λ1/n\lambda^{1/n} fed with an arbitrary (but fixed) environment state. Assuming that the latter has finite third moments, and ignoring unitaries, we show that the effective channel converges in diamond norm to a simple thermal attenuator, with a rate O(n12(m+1))\mathcal{O}\Big(n^{-\frac{1}{2(m+1)}}\Big). This allows us to establish bounds on the classical and quantum capacities of the cascade channel. Along the way, we derive several results that may be of independent interest. For example, we prove that any quantum characteristic function χρ\chi_\rho is uniformly bounded by some \eta_\rho<1 outside of any neighbourhood of the origin; also, ηρ\eta_\rho can be made to depend only on the energy of the state ρ\rho
