RSS Evidence Base: future employment prospects for the East Midlands
This paper sets out an analysis of the economic forecasts that have been used to underpin the reviews of the Regional Economic Strategy (RES) and the Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS). The focus of this paper is on employment prospects in the proposed RSS sub-areas. The data in this paper is presented for a slightly different time period than in the Interim RES Evidence Base- this is a function of the differing requirements of the RES and RSS. However the data in both sets of evidence is taken from the same source and is therefore consistent
Idempotents and one-sided units in infinite partial Brauer monoids
We study monoids generated by various combinations of idempotents and one- or
two-sided units of an infinite partial Brauer monoid. This yields a total of
eight such monoids, each with a natural characterisation in terms of
relationships between parameters associated to Brauer graphs. We calculate the
relative ranks of each monoid modulo any other such monoid it may contain, and
then apply these results to determine the Sierpinski rank of each monoid, and
ascertain which ones have the semigroup Bergman property. We also make some
fundamental observations about idempotents and units in arbitrary monoids, and
prove some general results about relative ranks for submonoids generated by
these sets.
