  • This paper presents the evaluation of reactive power pricing through the control of generator voltages under the assumption that the reactive power market has been transformed into the real power market. By applying the concept of economic dispatch, which minimizes the total cost of real power generation to reactive power generation, the algorithm for implementing reactive power pricing is proposed to determine the optimum voltage profiles of generators. It consists of reactive power voltage equation, the objective function that minimizes the total cost of reactive power generation, and linear analysis of inequality constraints in relation to the load voltages. From this algorithm, the total cost of the reactive power generation can be yielded to the minimum value within network constraints as the range of load voltages. This may provide the fair and reasonable price information for reactive power generation in the deregulated electricity market. The proposed algorithm has been tested on the IEEE 14-bus system using MATLAB.

  • Let A be a positive bounded linear operator acting on a complex Hilbert space (𝓗, ⟨·,·⟩). Let ωA(T) and ║T║A denote the A-numerical radius and the A-operator seminorm of an operator T acting on the semi-Hilbert space (𝓗, ⟨·,·⟩A), respectively, where ⟨x, y⟩A := ⟨Ax, y⟩ for all x, y ∈ 𝓗. In this paper, we show with different techniques from that used by Kittaneh in [24] that $$\frac{1}{4}{\parallel}T^{{\sharp}_A}T+TT^{{\sharp}_A}{\parallel}_A{\leq}{\omega}^2_A(T){\leq}\frac{1}{2}{\parallel}T^{{\sharp}_A}T+TT^{{\sharp}_A}{\parallel}_A.$$ Here T#A denotes a distinguished A-adjoint operator of T. Moreover, a considerable improvement of the above inequalities is proved. This allows us to compute the 𝔸-numerical radius of the operator matrix $\(\array{I&T\\0&-I}\)$ where 𝔸 = diag(A, A). In addition, several A-numerical radius inequalities for semi-Hilbert space operators are also established.

  • Korea is ranked as the world's No. 1 country in its aging rate. While the interest and demand for health is rapidly increasing, the health status of the elderly is in the lowest among OECD members. Increased chronic diseases, the burden of medical costs and digital/untact changes of societies after COVID-19 have caused the direction of healthcare to be changed from treatment oriented to health care and prevention oriented, along with increased income levels and a desire for a healthy life. Amid this paradigm of change, the gap in health standards and health inequality for the elderly according to local structure and social conditions affects not only socio-economic but also the quality of life for individual senior citizen. Utilizing prior data of Aging Research Panel Survey, this study aims to compare and analyze health conditions and regional gaps which are significant influences on the satisfaction of the life of the elderly, and to suggest direction of studies for health care to provide solutions for health inequalities. The findings are intended to be a basic data for researching models of the New Normal Smart Healthcare System that bridge the health gap between the elderly and enhance life satisfaction with health care models suitable for regional characteristics in aging society.

  • 본 연구는 코로나-19가 임금근로자의 노동시간과 임금에 미친 영향을 고용형태별로 비교분석하였다. 경제활동인구조사-근로형태별 부가조사(2017~2020)를 사용하여 분석한 결과, 코로나-19로 인해 비정규직은 정규직보다 노동시간이 더 감소해 임금소득 창출 기회가 축소됐다. 같은 기간 정규직과 비정규직 신규인력 간 노동시간과 임금 격차는 커졌는데, 이는 단시간·단기간 고용된 인력에서 더 크게 나타났다. 초기수준을 기반으로 노동조건이 변화하므로 이러한 결과는 신규 및 고용안정성이 낮은 인력의 노동조건 개선 노력이 노동시장 불평등 해소에 기여할 수 있음을 보여준다.

  • In 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic began in full-scale, the WHO Director-General warned of the dangers of an infodemic. The infodemic is a phenomenon in which false information spreads rapidly like an epidemic and causes chaos, and it was noted that the COVID-19 pandemic is not just limited to health problems, but also linked to a variety of issues such as human rights, economic inequality, various discrimination, hate speech, fake news, global governance etc. In the field of education, it is necessary to think about how to connect this global situation with school classes. Accordingly, this study suggested the direction for global citizenship education by analyzing how the infodemic spreads on Korean social media with the case of the recent global COVID-19 pandemic. According to the research results, the rate of negative emotions was higher than positive ones in the emotions that generate infodemic, while anxiety and anger were focused among negative emotions. In addition, the infodemic tended to spread widely with the feelings of anger rather than anxiety, and the feelings of anger led to advocating aggressive policies against certain country and regions. Therefore, global citizenship education is required to focus on a sense of duty and responsibility as a citizen, not on the level of national identity based on an exclusive sense of belonging. Furthermore, global citizenship education needs to lead to presenting a blueprint for education in a way that can enhance the awareness of the global community for joint response to global challenges and realize common prosperity based on sustainability and justice.

  • Due to the impact of the public health event COVID-19 epidemic, the Chinese futures market showed "Black Swan". This has brought the unpredictable into the economic environment with many commodities falling by the daily limit, while gold performed well and closed in the sunshine(Yan-Li and Rui Qian-Wang, 2020). Volatility is integral part of financial market. As an emerging market and a special precious metal, it is important to forecast return of gold futures price. This study selected data of the SHFE gold futures returns and conducted an empirical analysis based on the generalised autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH)-type model. Comparing the statistics of AIC, SC and H-QC, ARMA (12,9) model was selected as the best model. But serial correlation in the squared returns suggests conditional heteroskedasticity. Next part we established the autoregressive moving average ARMA-GARCH-type model to analysis whether Volatility Clustering and the leverage effect exist in the Chinese gold futures market. we consider three different distributions of innovation to explain fat-tailed features of financial returns. Additionally, the error degree and prediction results of different models were evaluated in terms of mean squared error (MSE), mean absolute error (MAE), Theil inequality coefficient(TIC) and root mean-squared error (RMSE). The results show that the ARMA(12,9)-TGARCH(2,2) model under Student's t-distribution outperforms other models when predicting the Chinese gold futures return series.

  • This study investigates the variation in anxiety levels across income classes in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia. The research is based on data from nationally representative surveys conducted in 2017 and 2021, and it employs a multilevel mixed-effects ordered logistic model. The unique aspect of this investigation lies in its utilization of the Cantril ladder, a commonly employed tool in public opinion research, to gauge anxiety levels. Participants are prompted to assess their present life circumstances concerning their daily worries and anxieties. The empirical findings provide evidence that individuals in provinces with higher exposures to COVID-19 reported heightened anxiety levels. Furthermore, the results highlight a consistent association between higher household income and lower levels of anxiety. Notably, individuals from the highest income group experienced a substantial decline in anxiety levels during the pandemic. When examining specific income classes, the study reveals heightened anxiety among women in higher-income brackets and among lower-income households residing in urban areas. Furthermore, regarding macroeconomic circumstances, the results illustrate a positive correlation between economic prosperity and anxiety levels among members of low-income households. The study also uncovers a positive connection between income inequality and self-assessed anxiety within upper-middle and high-income brackets.

  • 본 연구는 한국노동패널을 이용하여 지니계수를 분해와 패널분석을 통해 부동산소득이 가구 소득불평등에 미치는 영향을 실증분석하였다. 공간적 범위를 전국, 수도권, 비수도권으로 나누었고 글로벌금융위기 전 후로 기간을 살펴보았다. 분석결과, 첫째, 전기간을 전국, 수도권, 비수도권으로 나누어 지니계수 분해를 이용해 소득 원천별로 나누어 살펴본 결과, 총소득에서 전국과 수도권은 부동산소득이 차지하는 절대적, 상대적 기여도가 가장 크게 나타난 반면 비수도권은 근로소득이 가장 크게 나타났다. 또한 전국과 수도권은 부동산소득이 가구 소득불평등을 가장 심화시키는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 금융위기 이후기간이 이전기간에 비해 가구 소득불평등에 부동산소득이 영향을 덜 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 글로벌금융위기 이전에는 부동산가격이 급등을 하여 가구 소득불평등을 심화시켰으나 이후기간에는 가격하락으로 수익성이 악화돼 일시적으로 약화된 것으로 판단된다. 셋째, 상관관계분석에서 가구주 연령이 높고 고졸미만의 학력의 가구는 다른 가구에 비해 가구총소득이 낮을 것이며, 원천별 소득 특히 근로소득이 높을수록 가구 총소득이 상대적으로 높았다. 넷째, 수도권과 비수도권 지역으로 구분한 가구소득 결정요인을 패널분석한 결과를 비교하면 근로소득, 금융소득과 기타소득의 영향은 비수도권지역이 수도권지역에 비해 높은 반면 부동산소득의 영향은 수도권지역이 비수도권지역에 비해 높은 것을 알 수 있다. 정부는 소득불평등을 줄이기 위해서 고소득층에 세금을 강화하고 저소득층에 대한 세금 감면을 할 수 있는 정책적 배려가 필요하며 다양한 일자리 창출을 위한 노력을 기울여야 한다. 또한 자산보유를 통해 창출하는 소득의 비중이 높아질수록 소득불평등이 악화하는 경향이 있는 만큼 부동산가격 안정화에 중점을 두면서 지역별 차별성을 두고 정책을 수립 집행할 필요성이 있다.
