From videocassette to video stream: Issues involved in re‐purposing an existing educational video
No full textConventional video recordings can be converted into video streams but the process can be complex and problematic. The authors’ experience of re‐purposing an existing video, Back Care for Health Professionals, for streaming is used to illustrate what was involved and to highlight the important issues. Financial, legal, technical and pedagogic issues are examined

The Museum of Renaissance Music: A History in 100 Exhibits. Itroduction
No full textIn the introductory essay to the volume, the editors Vincenzo Borghetti and Tim Shephard illustrate the general project of the book: a History of Renaissance Music told through objects and images, as well as through documents and texts, which are also explored for their material and visual aspects. The introduction focuses on fundamental themes to this type of research, such as the definition of the Renaissance in music, its geographical, social, cultural and historiographical dimensions, and discusses the methodology employed in the material approach to the history of music, told precisely through objects

A Feasible Central Limit Theory for Realised Volatility Under Leverage
No full textIn this note we show that the feasible central limit theory for realised volatility and realised covariation recently developed by Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard applies under arbitrary diffusion based leverage effects. Results from a simulation experiment suggest that the feasible version of the limit theory performs well in practice.Euler approximation; Functional central limit theory; Quadratic variation; Realised volatility; Stochastic volatility.
Stochastic volatility with leverage: fast likelihood inference
No full textKim, Shephard and Chib (1998) provided a Bayesian analysis of stochastic volatility models based on a very fast and reliable Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm. Their method ruled out the leverage effect, which limited its scope for applications. Despite this, their basic method has been extensively used in financial economics literature and more recently in macroeconometrics. In this paper we show how to overcome the limitation of this analysis so that the essence of the Kim, Shephard and Chib (1998) can be used to deal with the leverage effect, greatly extending the applicability of this method. Several illustrative examples are provided.Leverage effect, Markov chain Monte Carlo, Mixture sampler, Stochastic volatility, Stock returns.
2-dimensional Shephard groups
No full textThe 2-dimensional Shephard groups are quotients of 2-dimensional Artin groups by powers of standard generators. We show that such a quotient is not if the powers taken are sufficiently large. However, for a given 2-dimensional Shephard group, we construct a piecewise Euclidean cell complex with a cocompact action (analogous to the Deligne complex for an Artin group) that allows us to determine other non-positive curvature properties. Namely, we show the 2-dimensional Shephard groups are acylindrically hyperbolic (which was known for 2-dimensional Artin groups), and relatively hyperbolic (which most Artin groups are known not to be). As an application, we show that a broad class of 2-dimensional Artin groups are residually finite.37 pages, 5 figures. Comments welcom
