Poverty and Deprivation in Dumfries and Galloway: A Spatial Approach
This study was commissioned and funded by Dumfries and Galloway Council to provide evidence and analysis of the nature and patterns of poverty and deprivation across the region. It complements the Dumfries and Galloway Regional Economic Strategy Baseline Study and Regional Economic Profile published in 2014 and the four Area Profiles published earlier in the year (2015), and has been used to inform the development of the region’s first Anti-Poverty Strategy. It is consistent with best practice in policy development by providing quantitative data, drawn from national and local sources and qualitative information, and qualitative data drawn from Discussion Groups with people experiencing poverty across the region. The findings will be used to inform Elected Members, officers and partners throughout the implementation of the Anti-Strategy over the coming five years and also in its final evaluation

On Absolute Equivalence and Linearization I
In this paper, we study the absolute equivalence between Pfaffian systems
with a degree 1 independence condition and obtain structural results,
particularly for systems of corank 3. We apply these results to understanding
dynamic feedback linearization of control systems with 2 inputs.Comment: 32 page
Geometry of Centroaffine Surfaces in
We use Cartan's method of moving frames to compute a complete set of local
invariants for nondegenerate, 2-dimensional centroaffine surfaces in
with nondegenerate centroaffine metric. We then
give a complete classification of all homogeneous centroaffine surfaces in this
class
