On ''cheap smoothing'' opportunities in identification of time-varying systems
PublikacjaIn certain applications of nonstationary system identification the model-based decisions can be postponed, i.e. executed with a delay. This allows one to incorporate into the identification process not only the currently available information, but also a number of ''future'' data points. The resulting estimation schemes, which involve smoothing, are not causal. Despite the possible performance improvements, the existing smoothing...

Quantum-state transfer in spin chains via isolated resonance of terminal spins
PublikacjaWe propose a quantum-state transfer protocol in a spin chain that requires only the control of the spins at the ends of the quantum wire. The protocol is to a large extent insensitive to inhomogeneity caused by local magnetic fields and perturbation of exchange couplings. Moreover, apart from the free evolution regime, it allows one to induce an adiabatic spin transfer, which provides the possibility of performing the transfer...

Cross-Bonding of MV Cable Lines for Energy Losses Decrease
PublikacjaCurrently, almost all medium voltage cable lines (MV) operate with the return wires earthed at both ends of the cable. Such a way of operation causes that during normal states of operation as well as during disturbances, e.g. short-circuits, in the return wires induce currents whose values mainly depend on the currents flowing in the phase wires. These currents in normal operating states are a source of additional energy losses...

Dzieło demiurga. Zapis gnostyckiego doświadczenia egzystencji we wczesnej poezji Czesława Miłosza (książka)
PublikacjaDziełem demiurga jest świat młodego Miłosza. Książka pokazuje, że jak nikt dotąd w polskiej poezji wypowiedział on temu światu sprzeciw. Buntownicze wizje poety zostały wyrażone językiem stosowanym dotąd do analizy gnostycyzmu i manicheizmu. Język ten odsłania świat żywiołów, wojny, dzieje poddane prawom darwinizmu, myśli i uczucia człowieka zbuntowanego na ziemskim padole. Taki świat wart był w oczach poety jedynie kosmicznego...

Property revenues (PRs) and expenditures of local government units (LGUs) in Poland
PublikacjaPRs are new category of local government revenues, which was introduced by changing the law on public finances at the end of 2006 and which took effect in 2007. By principle, these revenues should be converted into property expenditures. Their formalisation did not only allow assessing their absolute size but also a comparison with the longer existing property expenditures. Both categories were subject of analysis in this article....
