In this study, by extending the model proposed by Fullerton and Kim(2006), we explored the tax interdependency effect to examine the relationship between environmental tax and economic growth. The theoretical model shows that environmental tax cannot always stimulate economic growth if other taxes such as labor or income tax are distorted by environmental taxes. However, environmental tax can boost economic growth if cutting distortionary taxes offset the distortion of taxes, or improvement of abatement knowledge can sufficiently reduce the cost of production. An empirical analysis using 14 OECD countries shows a positive relationship between the increase of implicit energy tax rate and the increase of implicit income tax rate. Meanwhile, empirical analysis does not provide enough evidence to claim that the increase of implicit energy tax decreases implicit labor tax. We can presume that environmental tax policy in Europe did not necessarily mitigate the burden of labor tax.

Using redshift-space distortion, I reconstruct the growth history as a smooth function using model independent methods. Assuming general relativity, I obtain the expansion history independently of the dark energy model, and test it to the supernovae data. The results are consistent with general relativity as gravity and the cosmological constant as dark energy, although interestingly negative dark energy densities are not ruled out by the data at z~0.7 to 1.

The effect of cation substitution on the inonic conductivity was studied in $(Li_{0.5}La_{0.5})_{1-y}Sr_yTi_{1-x}Mn_xO_3$ system. In case of Sr substitution, the ionic conductivity abrubtly decreased over y=0.05. This may be caused by the decrease of lithium contents which contribute to lithium inonic conductivity. Jahn-Teller distortion as well as lattice parameter variation influenced the inonic conductivity in case of Mn substitution. A and B-site cations effects on the conductivities were found to be independent, and the ionic conductivity as high as $2.8{\times}10^{-2}$S/cm was obtained in x=0.0006 and y=0.05.

The FastSound project is a galaxy redshift survey using Subaru/FMOS to detect $H{\alpha}$ emitting galaxies at z ~ 1:3, for the purpose of probing the origin of the accelerated expansion of the universe. The survey has detected ~4,000 galaxy redshifts in a total area of $30deg^2$, and detected the redshift space distortion at this redshift range for the first time. The redshift space distortion (RSD) signal will be used to derive a measurement of the growth rate of large scale structure, which will provide a test for modified gravity as a possible origin of accelerated cosmic explansion. Here we present an overview and the current status of the project.

Video FRUC (Frame Rate Up Conversion) is one of the main issues that have arisen in recent years with the explosive growth of video sources and display formats in consumer electronics. Most advanced FRUC algorithms adopt an efficient motion interpolation technique to determine the motion vector field of interpolated frames. But, in some application areas such as post processing in receiver side, it is necessary to evaluate how well the MCI (Motion Compensated Interpolation) frame was reconstructed. In order to achieve this aim, first, this paper introduces some cost functions to estimate the reliability of a block in the MCI frame. Then, by using these functions, this paper proposes two distortion estimation models for evaluating how much noise was produced in the MCI frame. Through computer simulations, it is shown that the proposed estimation methods perform effectively in estimating the noises of the MCI frame.

Carbon solubility on the paste deposition methods in the carbon-doped TiZrN coating was investigated in terms of lattice distortion and atomic concentration. After depositing the carbon paste by the dip coating, spin coating and screen printing, the laser was ablated to form the carbon gradient layer. Thickness and the concentration of doped carbon depended on the paste deposition method. Crystal structure analysis indicated that more lattice distortion occurred when coating layers were doped with spin coating and screen printing than when coating layers were doped with dip coating. The XPS depth profile showed that the thickness of carbon gradient layer by dip coating was about 30 nm, spin coating and screen printing are approximately 100 nm, formed more gradient layer. The hardness before laser carburization was about 30 GPa, and the hardness of 31 GPa with dip coating and 37 GPa with spin coating and screen printing. It was indicated that paste deposition methods for laser carburization contributed to lattice distortion and gradient layer.

In this paper, we define two new subclass of k-uniformly starlike and convex functions of order ${\alpha}$ type ${\beta}$ with varying argument of coefficients. Further, we obtain coefficient estimates, extreme points, growth and distortion bounds, radii of starlikeness, convexity and results on modified Hadamard products.

Let M be a positive real number and c a complex numbcr such that $\left|c-1\right|<M{\leq}Re{c}$. Let $f,f(z)=z+a_{2}Z^{2}+...,$ be analytic and univalent in the unit disc. It is said to belong to the class S(c, M) if $\left|zf'(z)/f(z)-c\right|<M$ We find growth and rotation theorems for the class S(c, M).

The anatase particle was facetted at the free surface and a neck formation between the anatase particles prior to the phase transformation occured. This resulted in the severe lattice distortion at the region of the interface near the neck and this can act as the nucleation sites for the phase transformation. The grain growth of rutile particles after the phase transformation grew very fast by the sweeping phenomena of grain boundary. Therfore, It leaded to the microstructure without the rutile phase located in anatase particle.

New complex perovskite compounds (Na0.5Sr0.5)(Ti0.5Nb0.5)O3, (Na0.5Sr0.5)(Zr0.5Ti0.5)O3 and (Na0.5Sr0.5)(Ti0.5Ta0.5)O3 have been prepared. The crystal structures of these compounds were determined by powder X-ray Rietveld analysis. The crystal structure of (Na0.5Sr0.5)(Ti0.5Nb0.5)O3 and (Na0.5Sr0.5)(Zr0.5Ta0.5)O3 was Pmmn, and that of (Na0.5Sr0.5)(Ti0.5Nb0.5)O3 was I4/mmm. All these compounds showed the superstructure due to the oxygen octahedron distortion. The selected bond distances and bond angles were calculated by the OFFER. The octahedron distortion for each sample, which was measured from the bond distances and bond angles, showed the following order: (Na0.5Sr0.5)(Z0.5Ta0.5)O3> (Na0.5Sr0.5)(Ti0.5Nb0.5)O3 > (Na0.5Sr0.5)(Ti0.5Ta0.5)O3. Dielectric properties were measured for the samples. In this study, the crystal structure and dielectric properties of the new complex perovskite structures and discussed.
