Economic security of industrial companies in conditions of energy transition
Effective management of industrial companies in the conditions of modern challenges contributes to the achievement of tactical and strategic goals of technological development of enterprises. In the theory and practice of industrial economics, a special place is given to environmental management, which includes operational environmental management, investment environmental management, risk management, etc. The concentration of efforts in a certain direction depends on the specifics of the activities of the subjects and the problems that they are facing. In this regard, the system of ensuring the economic security of industrial companies that faces the need to solve the tasks of a planned energy transition is of particular importance. Industrial companies of the energy sector of the world economy were selected as the object of the study. As measures to ensure economic security, the article considers a unique risk management policy, including strategic planning, systematization and risk assessment, as well as managerial control over financial, economic, scientific and technological types of risk. The study revealed that over the past five years, industrial companies have been thoroughly approaching the development of an environmental strategy. The authors identify trends in the technological transformation of the global energy complex, which determine promising areas of technological integration for the development of carbon-neutral energy. The most important direction is the development and implementation of innovations that improve environmental safety, including new technologies for the production of pure hydrogen from natural gas and recycling processes. The conducted research made it possible to identify the scientific and institutional prerequisites for risk management of technological integration and to link them with tools for ensuring economic security
Genes reveal traces of common recent demographic history for most of the Uralic-speaking populations
Background: The genetic origins of Uralic speakers from across a vast territory in the temperate zone of North Eurasia have remained elusive. Previous studies have shown contrasting proportions of Eastern and Western Eurasian ancestry in their mitochondrial and Y chromosomal gene pools. While the maternal lineages reflect by and large the geographic background of a given Uralic-speaking population, the frequency of Y chromosomes of Eastern Eurasian origin is distinctively high among European Uralic speakers. The autosomal variation of Uralic speakers, however, has not yet been studied comprehensively.Results: Here, we present a genome-wide analysis of 15 Uralic-speaking populations which cover all main groups of the linguistic family. We show that contemporary Uralic speakers are genetically very similar to their local geographical neighbours. However, when studying relationships among geographically distant populations, we find that most of the Uralic speakers and some of their neighbours share a genetic component of possibly Siberian origin. Additionally, we show that most Uralic speakers share significantly more genomic segments identity-by-descent with each other than with geographically equidistant speakers of other languages. We find that correlated genome-wide genetic and lexical distances among Uralic speakers suggest co-dispersion of genes and languages. Yet, we do not find long-range genetic ties between Estonians and Hungarians with their linguistic sisters that would distinguish them from their non-Uralic-speaking neighbours.Conclusions: We show that most Uralic speakers share a distinct ancestry component of likely Siberian origin, which suggests that the spread of Uralic languages involved at least some demic component

Genomic analyses inform on migration events during the peopling of Eurasia.
High-coverage whole-genome sequence studies have so far focused on a limited number of geographically restricted populations, or been targeted at specific diseases, such as cancer. Nevertheless, the availability of high-resolution genomic data has led to the development of new methodologies for inferring population history and refuelled the debate on the mutation rate in humans. Here we present the Estonian Biocentre Human Genome Diversity Panel (EGDP), a dataset of 483 high-coverage human genomes from 148 populations worldwide, including 379 new genomes from 125 populations, which we group into diversity and selection sets. We analyse this dataset to refine estimates of continent-wide patterns of heterozygosity, long- and short-distance gene flow, archaic admixture, and changes in effective population size through time as well as for signals of positive or balancing selection. We find a genetic signature in present-day Papuans that suggests that at least 2% of their genome originates from an early and largely extinct expansion of anatomically modern humans (AMHs) out of Africa. Together with evidence from the western Asian fossil record, and admixture between AMHs and Neanderthals predating the main Eurasian expansion, our results contribute to the mounting evidence for the presence of AMHs out of Africa earlier than 75,000 years ago.Support was provided by: Estonian Research Infrastructure Roadmap grant no 3.2.0304.11-0312; Australian Research Council Discovery grants (DP110102635 and DP140101405) (D.M.L., M.W. and E.W.); Danish National Research Foundation; the Lundbeck Foundation and KU2016 (E.W.); ERC Starting Investigator grant (FP7 - 261213) (T.K.); Estonian Research Council grant PUT766 (G.C. and M.K.); EU European Regional Development Fund through the Centre of Excellence in Genomics to Estonian Biocentre (R.V.; M.Me. and A.Me.), and Centre of Excellence for Genomics and Translational Medicine Project No. 2014-2020.4.01.15-0012 to EGC of UT (A.Me.) and EBC (M.Me.); Estonian Institutional Research grant IUT24-1 (L.S., M.J., A.K., B.Y., K.T., C.B.M., Le.S., H.Sa., S.L., D.M.B., E.M., R.V., G.H., M.K., G.C., T.K. and M.Me.) and IUT20-60 (A.Me.); French Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs and French ANR grant number ANR-14-CE31-0013-01 (F.-X.R.); Gates Cambridge Trust Funding (E.J.); ICG SB RAS (No. VI.58.1.1) (D.V.L.); Leverhulme Programme grant no.

Representations of the pseudo-orthogonal group in the space of homogeneous differential forms.
Dans cette thèse nous étudions des représentations du groupe de Lorentz dans les sections du fibré cotangent sur le cône isotrope. Grâce aux transformations de Fourier et de Poisson nous construisons explicitement tous les opérateurs de brisure de symétrie qui apparaissent dans les lois de branchement des produits tensoriels de telles représentations.In this thesis we study representations of the Lorentz group acting on sectionsof the cotangent bundle over the isotropic cone. Using Fourier and Poisson transforms we construct explicitly all the symmetry breaking operators that appear in branching laws of tensor products of such representations
