      abstract     = {This article presents measurements of the $t$-channel
                      single top-quark ($t$) and top-antiquark ($\bar{t}$) total
                      production cross sections $\sigma(tq)$ and
                      $\sigma(\bar{t}q)$, their ratio
                      $R_{t}=\sigma(tq)/\sigma(\bar{t}q)$, and a measurement of
                      the inclusive production cross section $\sigma(tq +
                      \bar{t}q)$ in proton--proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$
                      TeV at the LHC. Differential cross sections for the $tq$ and
                      $\bar{t}q$ processes are measured as a function of the
                      transverse momentum and the absolute value of the rapidity
                      of $t$ and $\bar{t}$, respectively. The analyzed data set
                      was recorded with the ATLAS detector and corresponds to an
                      integrated luminosity of 4.59 fb$^{-1}$. Selected events
                      contain one charged lepton, large missing transverse
                      momentum, and two or three jets. The cross sections are
                      measured by performing a binned maximum-likelihood fit to
                      the output distributions of neural networks. The resulting
                      measurements are $\sigma(tq)= 46\pm 6\; \mathrm{pb}$,
                      $\sigma(\bar{t}q)= 23 \pm 4\; \mathrm{pb}$, $R_{t}=2.04\pm
                      0.18$, and $\sigma(tq + \bar{t}q)= 68 \pm 8\; \mathrm{pb}$,
                      consistent with the Standard Model expectation. The
                      uncertainty on the measured cross sections is dominated by
                      systematic uncertainties, while the uncertainty on $R_{t}$
                      is mainly statistical. Using the ratio of $\sigma(tq +
                      \bar{t}q)$ to its theoretical prediction, and assuming that
                      the top-quark-related CKM matrix elements obey the relation
                      $|V_{tb}|\gg |V_{ts}|, |V_{td}|$, we determine
                      $|V_{tb}|=1.02 \pm 0.07$.},
