// **** Purpose **** // This code calculates the Z2 invariant of a 2D plane of a 3D object // For 2D object, just input appropriate parameters. // This code can calculate both Z2 or Floquet Z2 // **** Variables **** // [lat],[hop],[scc],[flq]: structues // <= the output of lat, hop, scc, flq in PiLab // if Z2, let [flq]=[], if FZ2, let [hop]=[] & [scc]=[] // [b_fix]: 1x2, int // <= Only read when 3D, i.e lat.Primitive is 3x3 // b_fix(1): The fixed axis // b_fix(2): The fixed value, 0 for 0 , 1 for %pi // [b_mesh]: 1x2, int // <= mesh of the half BZ. eg.[5,5] means you mesh the whole BZ from // [-%pi,%pi] into 11x11. (always odd to include TRIM) // [occ_band}: 1x1, int // <= how many occupied bands below Ef // [Z2_val]: 1x1, int // => The Z2 invariant, can be 0 or 1 // [n_field]: tot_mesh points x 3 // => The n_field, [j1,j2,n_field] // n_field=F_field+A1_diff-A2_diff, must be 0 or 1 // **** Version **** // 04/30/2014 first version // 06/06/2015 combine PIL_Z2_cal & PIL_Z2_flq // **** Comment **** // 1. These formulas can be found in JPSJ 76 053702. Note that all of their // formulas are based on full-periodic Bloch functions (FPBFs) rather // than cell-periodic Bloch functions (CPBFs). In Comp Phys Comm 183 // 1849, they uses CPBFs, so periodic gauge has to be properly handled. // 2.

<s> Government officials here and in other countries laid plans through the weekend to head off a Monday market UNK -- but went out of their way to keep their moves quiet . </s> <s> Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan was on the UNK , making it clear to officials in the U.S. and abroad that the Fed was prepared to UNK massive amounts of money into the banking system , as it did in October 1987 , if the action were needed to prevent a financial crisis . </s> <s> And at the Treasury , Secretary Nicholas Brady talked with friends and associates on Wall Street while Assistant Secretary David UNK carefully UNK data on the Friday market plunge . </s> <s> But the officials feared that any public announcements would only increase market jitters . </s> <s> In addition , officials at the Fed and in the Bush administration decided that avoiding UNK actions and statements over the weekend would give them more strength and flexibility should Friday 's market drop turn into this morning 's UNK . </s> <s> `` The disadvantage at this point is that anything you do that looks like you are doing too much tends to reinforce a sense of crisis , '' said one government official , insisting on UNK . </s> <s> The Fed 's efforts at UNK were partly UNK Sunday morning , when both the New York Times and the Washington Post carried stories UNK a senior Fed official saying the central bank was prepared to UNK cash into the banking system Monday morning . </s> <s> Fed Chairman Greenspan was surprised by both stories , according to UNK sources , and insisted he had n't authorized any public comment . </s> <s> Nevertheless , Fed officials acknowledged the stories were reasonably accurate UNK of the central bank 's game plan . </s> <s> It is prepared to assume the same role it played in October 1987 , providing money to the markets if necessary to keep the financial system UNK . </s> <s> The Fed provides money to the banking system by buying government securities from financial institutions . </s> <s> The UNK of federal officials was evident in the appearance Sunday of Budget Director Richard Darman on ABC 's `` This UNK . '' </s> <s> `` Secretary of the Treasury Brady and Chairman Greenspan and the chairman of the SEC and others have been in close contact . </s> <s> I 'm sure they 'll do what 's right , what 's prudent , what 's UNK , '' he said . </s> <s> When it was suggested his comment was a `` UNK , '' Mr. Darman replied : `` It is a UNK . </s> <s> But , in this context , that 's the smart thing to do . '' </s> <s> At the Treasury , Secretary Brady issued a statement UNK the stock market 's drop . </s> <s> `` Today 's stock market decline does n't signal any fundamental change in the condition of the economy , '' he said . </s> <s> `` The economy remains UNK , and the outlook is for continued moderate growth . '' </s> <s> But administration officials conceded that Friday 's drop carried the chance of further declines this week . </s> <s> `` One possibility is that this is a UNK setback , reasonably limited in its UNK , and not a major problem , '' said one senior administration official , who also asked that he not be named . </s> <s> `` The other is that we see another major disaster , like two years ago . </s> <s> I think that 's less likely . '' </s> <s> Nevertheless , Fed Chairman Greenspan and Vice Chairman Manuel Johnson were in their offices Sunday evening , monitoring events as they UNK in markets around the world . </s> <s> The action was expected to begin with the opening of the New Zealand foreign exchange markets at 5 p.m. EST -- when stocks there plunged -- and to continue as the trading day began later in the evening in Tokyo and through early this morning in Europe . </s> <s> Both the Treasury and the Fed planned to keep market rooms operating throughout the night to monitor the developments . </s> <s> In Tokyo , share prices dropped sharply by 1.7 % in early Monday morning trading . </s> <s> After the initial slide , the market appeared to be turning around but by early afternoon was headed lower . </s> <s> In the Bush administration , the lead is being taken by Treasury Secretary Brady , UNK Robert UNK and Assistant Secretary UNK . </s> <s> The three men worked together on the so-called Brady Commission , headed by Mr. Brady , which was established after the 1987 crash to examine the market 's collapse . </s> <s> As a result they have extensive knowledge in financial markets , and financial market crises . </s> <s> Mr. Brady was at the White House Friday afternoon when the stock market 's decline began . </s> <s> He was quickly on the phone with Mr. UNK , who in turn was talking with the chairmen of the New York and Chicago exchanges . </s> <s> Later , Mr. Brady UNK Mr. Greenspan , SEC Chairman Richard Breeden and numerous contacts in New York and overseas . </s> <s> UNK say he continued to work the phones through the weekend . </s> <s> Administration officials say President Bush was UNK throughout Friday afternoon and evening , even after leaving for UNK David . </s> <s> He had frequent telephone UNK with Mr. Brady and Michael UNK , chairman of the counsel of economic advisers . </s> <s> Government officials tried throughout the weekend to UNK a UNK appearance in order to avoid any sense of panic . </s> <s> Treasury UNK David Mulford , for instance , was at a meeting of the Business Council in UNK Springs , Va. , when the stock market fell , and remained there through the following day . </s> <s> And as of last night , Fed Chairman Greenspan had n't canceled his plans to address the American Bankers Association convention in Washington at 10 a.m. this morning . </s> <s> Ironically , Mr. Greenspan was scheduled to address the same convention in Dallas on Oct. 20 , 1987 . </s> <s> He flew to Dallas on Oct. 19 , when the market plummeted UNK points , but then turned around the next morning and returned to Washington without delivering his speech . </s> <s> The Canadian government announced a new , 12-year Canada Savings Bond issue that will yield investors 10.5 % in the first year . </s> <s> The annual interest rate for each of the next 11 years will be set each fall , when details of a new series are released . </s> <s> Canada Savings Bonds are major government instruments for meeting its financial requirements . </s> <s> The government has about UNK billion Canadian dollars ( US$ UNK billion ) of such bonds currently outstanding . </s> <s> Only Canadian residents are permitted to buy Canada Savings Bonds , which may be redeemed any time at face value . </s> <s> The bonds go on sale Oct. 19 . </s> <s> The first major event this morning in U.S. stock and futures trading may be a UNK at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange . </s> <s> Under a reform UNK from the 1987 crash , trading in the Merc 's stock-index futures will break for 10 minutes if the contract opens and stays five points from Friday 's close , a move equal to 40 points on the Dow Jones Industrial Average . </s> <s> The aim of the UNK would be to ease the opening of the New York Stock Exchange , which would be UNK by such a volatile move on the Merc . </s> <s> That UNK UNK is just one of a number of UNK adopted after the 1987 crash . </s> <s> The Big Board also added computer capacity to handle huge UNK in trading volume . </s> <s> Several of those UNK changes kicked in during Friday 's one-hour collapse and worked as expected , even though they did n't prevent a stunning plunge . </s> <s> But the major `` circuit breakers '' have yet to be UNK . </s> <s> A deeper market plunge today could give them their first test . </s> <s> A further slide also would UNK debate over a host of other , more sweeping changes proposed -- but not implemented -- after the last crash . </s> <s> Most notably , several of the regulatory steps recommended by the Brady Task Force , which UNK the 1987 crash , would be revived -- especially because that group 's chairman is now the Treasury secretary . </s> <s> The most controversial of the Brady recommendations involved establishing a single UNK regulator to handle crucial UNK questions , such as setting consistent margin requirements for the stock and futures markets . </s> <s> But for the moment , attention UNK on the reforms that were put into place , and market regulators and participants said the circuit breakers worked as intended . </s> <s> Big Board and Merc officials expressed satisfaction with the results of two limits imposed on of the Merc 's Standard & Poor 's 500 contract , as well as `` UNK '' communications among exchanges . </s> <s> Those UNK -- from UNK p.m. to UNK p.m. UNK and from UNK p.m. until the close of trading a half-hour later -- forced traders to buy and sell contracts at prices at or higher than their frozen levels . </s> <s> During the first halt , after the S&P index had fallen 12 points , the Big Board 's `` UNK '' computer program automatically was triggered . </s> <s> That system is designed to separate UNK program trades from all other trades to help exchange officials resolve order imbalances in individual stocks . </s> <s> One Merc broker compared the action in the S&P pit during the two UNK to a fire at a UNK school . </s> <s> `` You do n't want the fire but you know what to do , '' said Howard UNK , an independent floor broker and a Merc governor . </s> <s> `` There was no panic . </s> <s> The system worked the way we devised it to work . '' </s> <s> After UNK for about 15 minutes , the S&P index tumbled to its UNK limit and the second freeze went into effect . </s> <s> Traders then spent the last half-hour `` watching to see if the Dow would drop 250 points , '' Mr. UNK added , referring to the level at which the stock market itself would have closed for an hour . </s> <s> One UNK estimated that 80 % to 90 % of the S&P traders `` were just standing around watching . '' </s> <s> But the UNK circuit breaker never had to kick in , and UNK on the Chicago Board of Trade 's Major Market Index also were n't triggered . </s> <s> The UNK and the S&P 500 are the two major indexes used by program traders to run their computerized trading strategies . </s> <s> The programs are considered by many to be a major cause of the 1987 crash . </s> <s> The process of UNK reforms began with calls to UNK the markets and wound up a year later with a series of rather technical adjustments . </s> <s> In October 1987 , just after the market drop , Washington was UNK in talk of sweeping changes in the way the financial markets are structured and regulated . </s> <s> Over the next year that grand agenda was UNK down to a series of steps to UNK big stock drops by UNK trading to give market players time to UNK and reconsider positions . </s> <s> In addition , limits were placed on computer-driven trading , and steps were taken to better link the stock and futures markets . </s> <s> Few changes were made in the way the markets are regulated . </s> <s> At the UNK the prime target was program trading , which was much discussed but little understood on Capitol Hill . </s> <s> There were also calls to strip the stock markets of `` derivative '' products , such as stock-index futures and options , which Federal Judge Stanley UNK , for example , UNK to `` UNK attached to the basic market . '' </s> <s> And there was much criticism of the New York Stock Exchange 's system of having stock trades flow through specialists , or market makers . </s> <s> When the Brady Task Force 's powerful analysis of the crash was released in January 1988 , it immediately UNK the reformers ' agenda . </s> <s> UNK that the separate financial UNK acted as one , and UNK that the crash had `` raised the possibility of a UNK financial system breakdown , '' the presidential task force called for establishing a UNK to oversee the markets , to make margins consistent across markets , to UNK clearing systems and to install circuit breakers . </s> <s> Only the last of those recommendations ever was implemented . </s> <s> The Reagan White House held the Brady recommendations at arm 's length and named a second panel -- the Working Group on the Financial Markets -- to review its analysis and those of other crash studies . </s> <s> In May 1988 , the Working Group , made up of representatives from the Federal Reserve , the Treasury , the Securities and Exchange Commission , and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission , finally endorsed only circuit breakers . </s> <s> After several more months of arguments among various stock exchanges and futures markets , circuit breakers were set in place , with the most UNK UNK trading after 250 and 400 point drops in the Dow Jones Industrial Average . </s> <s> UNK , some free UNK dismissed such UNK as UNK to UNK . </s> <s> After all , this free-market argument went , the Dow only dropped more than 250 points once this century . </s> <s> `` Circuit breakers '' set to UNK big drops : </s> <s> -- If S&P futures fall 5 points at opening , contract trading UNK for 10 minutes . </s> <s> -- If Dow UNK fall 25 points at opening , contract trading UNK for 10 minutes . </s> <s> -- If S&P futures fall 12 points ( equivalent to about 100 points on UNK ) , trading is frozen for half hour to that price or higher . </s> <s> On NYSE program trades are diverted into a separate computer file to determine buy and sell orders . </s> <s> -- If S&P futures fall 30 points , trading is restricted for an hour to that price or higher . </s> <s> -- If Dow UNK fall 250 points , trading on the Big Board UNK for an hour . </s> <s> S&P and UNK contracts also halt . </s> <s> -- If UNK drops 400 points , Big Board UNK trading for two hours . </s> <s> Trading in UNK and S&P futures also halted . </s> <s> Brady Task Force recommendations ( Jan. 1988 ) : </s> <s> -- UNK an UNK regulator for financial markets </s> <s> -- UNK UNK systems </s> <s> -- Make margins consistent across stock and futures markets </s> <s> SEC proposals ( May 1988 ) : </s> <s> -- UNK prompt reports of large securities trades . </s> <s> -- UNK SEC authority to monitor UNK by affiliates of brokerage firms . </s> <s> -- UNK jurisdiction over UNK futures to SEC from UNK . </s> <s> ( UNK by new SEC chairman ) </s> <s> -- UNK SEC authority to halt securities trading , ( also opposed by new SEC chairman ) . </s> <s> Congressional proposal : </s> <s> -- UNK a task force to review current state of the securities markets and securities laws . </s> <s> UNK the Soviet government 's television monopoly , an independent company has gained rights to show world programming , including American films . </s> <s> `` There must not be a monopoly , there must be freedom of choice for both journalists and viewers , '' UNK I.

have been few and far between . </s> <s> Part of the problem is the tendency of all UNK , ever since the UNK days of Norman UNK , to UNK about social issues . </s> <s> To some extent , this tendency emerges whenever the show tries to UNK us about ethnic UNK by UNK them . </s> <s> For instance , Michael UNK UNK not because he 's a UNK Jewish businessman , but because he UNK his UNK job as a

into 16 different UNK , including this year 's big hit , UNK with UNK . </s> <s> With UNK , however , it is n't always easy to persuade consumers that less is more ; many people tend to dump too much UNK into the UNK machine , UNK that it takes a cup of UNK to really clean the UNK . </s> <s> In the early 1980s , P&G tried to launch here a concentrated UNK under the UNK brand name that it markets

consumers on UNK and fabric UNK UNK in UNK , but they have n't sold well , despite the convenience . </s> <s> But P&G contends the new UNK is a unique formula that also offers an UNK that prevents

UNK , an analyst at Salomon UNK . </s> <s> But with so many brands UNK for space , that 's no longer the case . </s> <s> If the new UNK sells well , the trend toward smaller packaging is likely to

7 % of the U.S. market from 6.7 % in 1988 . </s> <s> But its quota has been as high as 6.9 % in 1984 . </s> <s> Japan , however , has agreed to cut its quota to about 5 % from 5.9 % previously . </s> <s> Japan , the EC , Brazil , Mexico and South Korea provide about 80 % of the steel imported to the U.S. under the quota program . </s> <s> The balance is supplied by a host of smaller exporters , such as Australia and Venezuela . </s> <s> The U.S. had about an extra 2 % of the domestic steel market to give to foreign suppliers in its quota talks . </s> <s> That was essentially made up of a 1 % increase in the overall quota program and 1 % from cutting Japan 's allowance . </s> <s> UNK from the White House trade office will repeat these quota negotiations next year when they will have another 1 % of the U.S. steel market to UNK . </s> <s> These UNK UNK increases to the steel quota program are built into the Bush administration 's UNK program to give its negotiators leverage with
