Empirical Estimates of the Taylor Rule: A Meta-Analysis
Sviták, Jan ; Havránek, Tomáš (advisor) ; Lypko, Vyacheslav (referee)
The central banks' reaction functions are commonly estimated in the empirical literature, but the results vary even for the same central bank. Meta-analysis is a tool used to uncover publication bias and explain the heterogeneity in estimates. In this thesis I analyze 1128 estimates from 88 primary studies. I examine the estimates of the coefficients from Taylor rule specification with and without interest rate smoothing and find statistically significant evidence of publication bias in all estimates of Taylor rule coefficients. Furthermore, the estimation of the effects beyond publication bias yields much lower estimates than commonly thought. I also managed to explain some of the heterogeneity in the estimates by accounting for different data characteristics used in the primary studies. E.g. different measures of inflation and output gaps significantly influence the estimates of the Taylor rule coefficients.

Analysis of project- and tender prices of arboricultural treatments within project Greenery restoration in group of communities Novoborsko
Sviták, Jan ; Kunt, Miroslav (advisor) ; Miroslav, Miroslav (referee)
SUMMARY
The first chapter of my dissertation is set on the problematics of greenery in villages and cities and characterization of activities that are realized in the project The common solution in the care of the native landscape where the inventarization of trees in the region of the Union of the Novoborsko villages is processed, with the utilization of standard metodics of technical state meassuring of trees, analysis of the state of vegetation zones and the singular trees with the use of ISAT metodics and measurements. With the measurements acquired in this project was founded the project: Regeneration of the greenery in the Union of the Novoborsko villages.
The aim of this work is comparison of real prizes in individual arrangements with the prizes of transparent open competitions. The work contains summary of prizes of these arrangements in the individual villages and cities in the Union. In the next stage are the main section of open competitions and the output acquired from the prize offers of individual companies involved in these competitions. The last stage of this work contain outputs and the realization of next stages of the The common solution in care of the greenery project and the preparation of the Regeneration of the greenery in the Union of the Novoborsko villages project. The outputs shows common and widely known truth that the projected prizes of the projects are way off in comparsion with the offered prizes of companies which partakes in the open competitions . This work proved that final prize of the starting prizes in the competitive tendering is significantly lowered in the end. Specifically saying, the prize of the winning prizes is lowered for about a third for the whole project, but even equally in the partial prizes of the items.
After comparsion analysis of prius, using the application of prizes listed in the ÚRS price lists in combination with real prizes of arboristic companies it gives us a common rules how to prepare a request for grants linked with projects of the solutions in the care of greenery.Practical and theoretical skills of the realized project Regeneration of the greenery in the Union of the Novoborsko villages were used.
In my opinion the main aim of these outputs can be in the usage of the realization and the preparation of the projects linked with the care of the greenery and woody plants that villages and towns in Liberec region make, because the situation is similar like in the Union of the Novoborsko villages.
I believe that this work may improve the not so good state of greenery and the better budget making of small villages.

Management of the Headwater Area of Jihlava River
Sviták, Jan ; Syrovátka, Oldřich (advisor) ; Duchek, Stanislav (referee)
This Bachelor work deals with the management of the headwater area of the Jihlava River. The work is based on the detected state of the headwater area of the Jihlava River, which is currently very ecologically unstable from the reasons of the improper regulations and agricultural interventions. This situation is described and evaluated in the work. On the base of the results such corrective measures are suggested, which lead to ecological stability increase in the headwater basin, especially regarding drainage conditions. This measures can serve as the base for the initiation and realization of comprehensive landscape adjustments. For these purposes the management of the individual municipalities will be asked for their opinion regarding the realization of the comprehensive landscape adjustments.
