Je Taylorovo pravidlo příliš jednoduché pro praktické využití v malé otevřené ekonomice jako je Česká republika?
Juračka, Tomáš ; Mičúch, Marek (advisor) ; Potužák, Pavel (referee)
The Taylor rule and its variants played a prominent role in the monetary policy discussion among theoreticians and practitioners for more almost two decades. The purpose of this thesis is to assess on the applicability of the simple instrument rules such as a classic Taylor's rule to the Czech economic environment which can be described as a small open economy with banking market specifically skewed by excess liquidity. The applicability is evaluated based on the variants of the Taylor rule and their effectiveness in describing the monetary policy of the central bank. The results of the models presented in this thesis are ambiguous. Traditional specification of the Taylor's rule is clearly unsuccessful in describing the behaviour of the Czech National Bank. However, if the models are altered to their historical variants containing only the information accessible at the time of decision making, their robustness and explanatory value increase significantly. Taking interest rate smoothing and exchange rate into consideration further improves the models. The policy behaviour of the Czech National Bank can be best described by the historical model with the one-year-ahead inflation prognosis, output gap, exchange rate and lagged target interest rate as explanatory variables. One of interesting results of this model is that the output gap does not play important role in the Czech National Bank decision making which is consistent with the opinions presented in the Czech National Bank Board Minutes.

The footbridge for pedestrians and cyclists in Zvolen
Hric, Fedor ; Bajer, Miroslav (referee) ; Šmak, Milan (advisor)
Diploma´s thesis is about timber structure of footbridge for pedestrians and cyclists over the Slatina river in the city of Zvolen as cast of alternatives. In the first alternative is footbridge designed as a simple arched beam, made of glued laminated timber. Footbridge is also designed with semi through bridge deck, made of structural timber. The second alternative is designed as a tied arch structure. At this alternative is the bridge deck left unchanged(material, sizes of members). Both alternatives are attested by currents standarts.

Highway multispan bridge over wide wally
Bobek, Lukáš ; Daněk, Ing Stanislav (referee) ; Klusáček, Ladislav (advisor)
The aim of this diploma thesis is to design and assess highway bridge. The structure is located on the D1 motorway section bridging a wide valley between the Slovak villages Doľany a Klčov. Three variants have been created – box girder bridge with transverse overhangs, a pair of girder bridge and a pair of box girder bridges. The various proposals were compared with each other. For the most valuable option is selected prestressed box girder bridge with transverse overhangs, which are supported by prefabricated concrete struts. The selected proposal was subsequently elaborated in detail, the load-bearing structure is analyzed using Scia Engineer 16. In calculating the internal forces is adjusted for the effects of construction methods, even as time-dependent analysis TDA. When designing the load-bearing structure it is considered the action of permanent load, also loading from transport and temperature. The structure is assessed for serviceability and ultimate limit states according to current standards. The bridge deck is built by incremental launching method. The principle of this method consists of building the segments in a casting yard located behind the bridge abutment. Each segment is matchcast against the previous one and prestressed to the section of structure already built. The whole superstructure is then jacked forward a distance equal to the length of this segment. This process is repeated until the bridge deck is in its final position. Chosen method of construction is very fast and efficient, to the country in the valley isn´t damage during construction.

Alternative reproductive strategies in Common Pochards (Aythya ferina)
Šťovíček, Ondřej ; Albrecht, Tomáš (advisor) ; Bryja, Josef (referee)
Conspecific brood parasitism (CBP) is one of few alternative reproductive strategies exmployed by females. CBP is common in birds because of their mode of reproduction (ovipary), which allows relatively simple dumping own eggs to foreign nest. This strategy is especially common in birds with precocial young, such as waterfowl. In this study, common pochard (Aythya ferina) was the model organism for study of CBP via molecular methods. It is the very first evidence of this kind of parasitism in non-colonial and non-cavity nesting duck species, based on detection of parasitic eggs via microsatellites markers. A set of 17 microsatellites markers (10 of these were newly found and specific for our species) was optimised for detection of rate of parasitism and relatedness between females in whole population. It was found that CBP is surprisingly high in our species, the parasitic eggs (39 % of 252 eggs) were found in 89% of nests. Despite the fact that females preferentially nest near relatives individuals, parasitic females parasitize equally nests nearby and nests in longer distance. However, no preferential parasitism of related individuals was found. Cost of parasitism seems relatively low for both, host and parasite, in our species. This is in accordance with previous finding that common pochard's...

The Kelly Criterion
Kálosi, Szilárd ; Omelka, Marek (advisor) ; Hlávka, Zdeněk (referee)
The present work is devoted to the Kelly criterion, which is a simple method for choosing the amount of the bet for gambles with a positive expected value. In the first part of the work we introduce the mathematical explanation of the criterion, examine the capital after $n$ trials as a function of the bet, the long-run rate of return and asymptotical properties of the capital growth. In the second part we attempt to generalize the Kelly criterion from the first part for some other situations. Examples for a simple game and generalized situations illustrating the properties of the Kelly criterion and results from previous parts compose the last part of the work.

Evolutionary Design of 3D Structures
Kovařík, Roman ; Sekanina, Lukáš (referee) ; Jaroš, Jiří (advisor)
This work deals with evolutionary design of 3D structures. The work brings the summary of the previous works in this area and brings autor's suggested solution of evolutionary design of 3D structures. This paper seeks to the ability of easy fitness function definition in the systems for evolutionary design of structures. The author tries to make one of the first steps to the future systems for evolution design of any universal structures in contrast with the evolution systems for design of a concrete type of structure. The result of this work is the basic system for evolutionary design of 3D structures with the ability of external fitness function definition via the XML file. This paper offers also the simple advices and observations for the potential future work in this area.

Managing Mobile IP enabled networks with SNMP protocol
Závodný, Ondřej ; Vajsar, Pavel (referee) ; Skořepa, Michal (advisor)
The content of this thesis is to research possibilities of using SNMP for management of Mobile IP activated entities. The first two chapters deal with theoretical analysis of Mobile IP protocol, and Simple Network Management Protocol. The Mobile IP protocol analysis focuses especially on the elements Home agent and Foreign agent. In the SNMP chapter the analysis focuses mainly on ways to exchange messages. Another part of the document is devoted to a description of laboratory networks com- posed of routers Cisco 1841 and the configuration of them. Finally is described the programmed application to manager these devices in JAVA, which is included in Annex. The program periodically sends SNMP queries and finds relationships between the Home agent and the mobile nodes, and between the foreign agent and the mobile nodes. The application has a user-friendly interface that is shown on the attached flash animation. Finally, the thesis summarizes the concepts described in previous chapters and the goals to achieve.

Strategies and equilibria in game theory
Mutňanský, Michal ; Milota, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Kaplický, Petr (referee)
Game theory is a discipline of applied mathematics that analyses a wide range of decision situations. In this thesis the reader is informed about the basic terms of game theory, some of them are illustrated on simple examples. The two dimensional Brouwer fixed-point theorem is proven using the Hex game. In addition to the formulation and proof of Nash's theorem, the thesis presents several methods for finding Nash equilibrium points, such as the simplex method. Their application to a specific game demonstrates the practical use of these methods. The thesis is intended for readers interested in the game theory, it does not, however, require any previous knowledge of this field of mathematics.
