Embedding in ation in string theory

We introduce slow-roll in ation in string theory on both a conceptual level and a detailed one. In order to do this we rst brie y review important concepts of in ation and string theory. We then reconstruct models of string in ation in the so-called Racetrack scenario for two di erent cases where the di erence being the number of Kähler moduli used as in aton. Furthermore, we brie y relate our results to the more recent discussion on whether AdS/dS solutions actually exist in string theory. In this instance our results seem to indicate that uplifting is a crucial component to obtain AdS/dS solutions. Sammanfattning I detta projekt försöker vi ena två teorier inom fysik: in ation och strängteori. Dessa teorier beskriver olika saker, in ation beskriver hur universum expanderade tidigt i dess historia medan strängteori beskriver hur universum fungerar på en fundamental nivå. Målet med att ena dessa teorier är att testa strängteorins förmåga att beskriva kända fysikaliska processer då detta skulle gynna strängteorins trovärdighet. Vi utför projektet genom att introducera in ationsvillkor som vi uppfyller med hjälp av strängteori. Denna process är långvarig och kräver många steg. Kortfattat så börjar man med att kompakti era de extra dimensionerna som nns i strängteori så att man får en e ektiv fältteori som fungerar i fyra dimensioner, då tre dimenisioner är rumsdimensioner och en är en tidsdimension. Man säger att man kompakti erar på en mångfald och detta ger upphov till nya fält i den resulterande teorin. I kombination med dessa nya fält och den e ektiva fältteorin så har man alla objekt som behövs för att uppfylla in ationsvillkoren. När man har alla matematiska objekt tillgängliga så kan man börja skapa modeller där man bäddar in in ation i strängteori. Vi visar två sådana modeller i detta projekt där skillnaden mellan modellerna är hur många nya fält vi har i vår e ektiva fältteori. Vi spenderar också lite tid på att undersöka den kritik som nns mot dessa modeller samt mot denna process. Vi kollar speciellt på en förmodan som förbjuder dessa e ektiva teorier från att existera i strängteori.
Modal operators on rings of continuous functions

The well-known dualities in modal logic establish dual equivalences between various categories of Kripke frames and modal algebras. Thomason duality provides a dual equivalence between the category KF of all Kripke frames and the category cmma of completely multiplicative modal algebras, while Esakia-Goldblatt duality generalizes Thomason duality to a dual equivalence between the category ma of all modal algebras and the category DF of descriptive frames; that is, Kripke frames equipped with a Stone topology such that the binary relation is continuous. Our goal is to generalize the setting of descriptive frames to that of compact Hausdorff frames; that is, to generalize the Stone topology on a Kripke frame to that of a compact Hausdorff topology. For this, instead of working with modal algebras of clopen subsets, we work with rings of continuous real-valued functions on compact Hausdorff spaces. The main novelty is to define a modal operator on such a ring utilizing a continuous relation on a compact Hausdorff space. Our starting point is the well-known Gelfand-Naimark-Stone duality between the category KHaus of compact Hausdorff spaces and the category ubal of uniformly complete bounded archimedean l-algebras. We endow a bounded archimedean l-algebra with a modal operator, which results in the category mbal of modal bounded archimedean l-algebras. Our main result establishes a contravariant adjunction between mbal and the category KHK of compact Hausdorff frames, which restricts to a dual equivalence between KHK and the reflective subcategory mubal of mbal consisting of uniformly complete objects of mbal. This generalizes both Gelfand-Naimark-Stone duality and Esakia-Goldblatt duality. We also provide a ring-theoretic version of Thomason duality by working with a completely multiplicative modal operator on the ring of all bounded real-valued functions on a Kripke frame.

A Case Report of a Juvenile Volkmann's Ischemic Contracture

Aim: This study was conducted to determine the outcome of physiotherapy intervention in a juvenile case of Volkmann’s ischemic contracture. Methodology: The patient was an 8-year-old female pupil presenting with flexion deformity of the right elbow, wrist and fingers accompanied with pain and difficulty in performing activities of daily living of 5 months onset. She received physiotherapy including home program for 43 sessions with a periodic review of the intervention after the 22nd, 33rd and 43rd treatment sessions. Results: The outcome variables included pain intensity, range of motion, muscle girth, and functional ability. Ranges of motion changed as follows: elbow flexion 85° to 120°; elbow extension 85° to 120°; wrist flexion 18° to 19°; wrist extension 36° to 46°; pronation 30° to 180°; supination 50° to 180°. The patient demonstrated palpable improvements in all these parameters. Pain also dropped from 7 to 4 and sometimes lesser. There was no significant muscular atrophy in the forearm despite the compromise of the muscle length-tension relationship but in the thenar and hypothenar eminences. A very tiny, subtle and rather tricky to detect anesthetic spot was observed on the palm. Conclusion: We therefore concluded that physiotherapy had a positive outcome for children with Volkmann’s ischemic contracture and had the potential to reduce the cost of future surgeries for patients.
Managing Optimal Working Capital and Corporate Performance: Evidence from Vietnam

This paper examined the impact of working capital management (WCM) on corporate performance (CP) in Vietnam. We considered whether there exists an optimal cash conversion cycle (CCC), an optimal net trade cycle (NTC) and how WCM affects CP. We also considered the effect of WCM on CP under financial constraints. This research uses the GLS regression method with research data from listed companies on Vietnam? s stock market from 2009 to 2018, with 5383 business observations in ten years. Initially, this study discovered that CCC and NTC were statistically significant and inversely related to corporate performance (measured by ROA and Tobin? s Q). However, when continuing to use quadratic functions to analyze data, the study discovered that optimal CCC and NTC have not a linear but an inverted U shape instead. Research results have determined the level of optimal CCC, and NTC affecting CP (measured by ROA); though it was not meaningful when CP is measured by Tobin? s q. WCM was also considered in the case of companies with limited financial conditions.

GALOIS GROUPS AND THE ETALE FUNDAMENTAL GROUP

The following texts consists of a first-year Masters student “memoire” on the subject of the deep link between two seemingly very different objects: Algebraic Extensions over an arbitrary base field and Galois theory on one side versus the topological fundamental group and it’s covering spaces. We give a summary of both theories before building the first link in considering branched coverings of Riemann surfaces. This leads to an algebraic generalization of the fundamental group, the étale fundamental group, introduced by Grothendieck in [5], where we will also introduce the language of schemes. We conclude with a discussion of further topics and applications to the inverse Galois problem. As the writer intends this to be more as a demonstration of his own understanding, almost all of what follows was written with a little reference to the texts as possible. As such, details are lacking, and one should consult the reference material for rigorous treatment.
The Impact Of Capital Structure On Financial Performance Of Malaysian Public Listed Construction Firms

The topic of capital structure has been widely explored among the literature. Many studies have tried to identify the optimum capital structure that would allow profit maximization for companies. However, with capital structure, there have been many divergent findings due to different sectors exhibiting different behaviors and model that attempt to establish relationship between capital structure and performance. This research therefore, seeks to identify the impact of capital structure on profitability of 36 publicly listed construction firms in Malaysia in the year 20112015. The objective of this study is to determine the impact and significance of capital structure on profitability, the relationship between DA with ROE, ROA and NPM and the relationship between DE with ROE, ROA and NPM. The researcher uses secondary data from audited financial statements of construction firms published in Bursa Malaysia Stock Exchange site. Quantitative methodology using random sampling was employed and the data collected were analyzed using excel and E-views 7 econometric software to come up with descriptive, regression and correlation results. The significance of data was measured using normality test and related, correlation, autocorrelation, multicollinearity and heteroscedasticity of the data was investigated to check the significance of the model. The findings revealed that capital structure impact‘s financial performance of construction firms. whereby the impact was significant with DE and not significant with DA as per p-value of the coefficient of correlation. The findings also showed a negative relationship between DA and DE with ROE, ROA and NPM.
Information overload and environmental degradation : learning from H . A . Simon

This paper discusses the relevance of information overload for understanding environmental degradation. We ground our argument on the fact that both time and attention are needed to process information. This idea, which was core in the thought of Herbert Simon, also greatly affected the early works of the film director Wim Wenders. Because information overload reduces the awareness of the consequences of choices and life-styles, this concept is a crucial analytical category to interpret many present-days puzzles, including environmental degradation. The implications of information overload, together with the detachedness from nature of the lifestyles of people living in rich countries, can be easily seen within a standard consumer problem framework.
Aerodynamic Properties of Jatropha Seeds

Accurate scientific data are crucial to efficient design of machines for cleaning, separation, drying and postharvest handling of agricultural materials such as Jatropha seeds. Therefore this study was undertaken to determine the terminal velocity and drag coefficient of native and improved accessions of Jatropha seeds at four moisture content levels (4%, 8%, 12% and 16% db). The aerodynamic properties were determined using theoretical and experimental methods. The experimental method involves the use of a vertical wind tunnel. The values of terminal velocity obtained from the theoretical methods ranged from 5.72 – 13.24m/s for native accession and 6.45 – 13.45m/s for improved accession. On the other hand, values of terminal velocity obtained from the experimental method ranged from 7.98 – 11.08 m/s for native accession and 7.42 – 11.36 m/s for the improved accession. The drag coefficient values obtained from the theoretical methods ranged from 0.27 – 1.67 and 0.292 – 1.474 for the native and improved accessions, respectively. The experimental values of drag coefficient ranged from 0.07 – 0.173 for the native accession and 0.07 – 0.164 for the improved accession. Moisture content was observed to have a significant effect (p < 0.05) on both terminal velocity and drag coefficient. Conversely, the accession had no effect on any of the aerodynamic properties. Means separation using Duncan's Multiple Range Test showed that the difference, for the experimental terminal velocity, lies between 8 to 12% for native accession and 8 to 16% for improved accession. These moisture contents are the points at which the seeds gain significant weight to alter its terminal velocity. Regression equations for determination of terminal velocity and drag coefficient of Jatropha seeds were obtained for different moisture content levels using the mass of the seeds. Keywords— Jatropha, terminal velocity, drag coefficients and moisture content.
A Comparison of Methods for Examining the Effect of Uncertainty in the Conductivities in a Model of Partial Thickness Ischaemia

Although models of cardiac ischaemia require values for electrical conductivities, no agreement yet exists on these values, nor how much effect uncertainty in the conductivities will have on simulation results. In this work, simulations of acute partial thickness (50% of the wall thickness) ischaemia are conducted in a half-ellipsoidal model of the left ventricle to produce epicardial potential distributions (EPDs), while simultaneously varying each of the six bidomain conductivity values. From these, emulators are produced using Gaussian Process emulators (GPE), Partial Least Squares (PLS), and generalised polynomial chaos expansion (PCE). All three approaches indicate that the EPDs are most sensitive to uncertainty in the longitudinal conductivities and the extracellular normal conductivity, and that variation in these conductivities has a significant effect on the EPDs. Varying the depth of the ischaemic region does not change the conductivities to which the main EPD features (a maximum and two flanking minima) are sensitive. For this work, the PCE approach has the advantage that it provides more information (that is, sensitivity over the ventricular surface, not just at the main features). However, GPE and PLS are able to supply information about the sensitivity of the position of the features that PCE is not. Finally, PLS and PCE can be performed using fewer points than for GPE.

Quantifying and Comparing Activity in Group Exercise Classes - A Literature Review

The aim of this review was to evaluate and compare physical activity levels and physical responses of group exercises and evaluate methods of measuring these classes. The popularity of modern group exercise classes is evident by the more than 3 million classes per week offered by Les Mills International and the 81% of fitness business in Australia that offer group fitness classes. While general dance style aerobics have been researched, limited insight has been made into modern group exercise classes, leaving a gap in the knowledge of best practices when prescribing the various styles and programs as a healthy activity and measuring classes to accurately reflect physiological benefits. The purpose of this article is to present an overview of documented research and where possible identify gaps in knowledge in order to make recommendations for further study. A literature search was conducted in ProQuest, PubMed, Google Scholar, current reports and documentation was also sought through Fitness Australia and Les Mills International. There is an extensive amount of literature available exploring the benefits of more established techniques such as yoga, Tai Chi, Pilates and even dance style aerobics. However, when these styles of exercise are combined, or modernised with new techniques or equipment, the scope of literature is limited. Research available is restricted by inconsistencies in the type of equipment used, participants fitness level, variation in class structure, and instructor delivery. ; ;
Atomoxetine and Duloxetine: Evaluation of a Potential Pharmacokinetic Drug-Drug Interaction

Abstract Objective: The present research aimed to investigate whether a pharmacokinetic drug interaction exists between atomoxetine, a substrate of CYP2D6 and duloxetine, an enzymatic inhibitor of the same metabolic pathway. Methods: Twenty-three healthy volunteers were enrolled in an open-label, non-randomized, sequential, 2-period clinical study. During the trial, they received a single dose of atomoxetine 25 mg (Period 1:Reference) followed by a combination of atomoxetine 25 mg and duloxetine 30 mg, after a pretreatment regimen with duloxetine 30-60 mg/day for 4 days (Period 2:Test). The pharmacokinetic parameters of atomoxetine and its main metabolite (4-hydroxyatomoxetine-O-glucuronide) were estimated using a non-compartmental approach and statistical tests were used to compare these parameters between study periods. Results: A total of 22 subjects, extensive metabolizers (EMs), were considered for the final report of the study findings. Duloxetine influenced the plasma concentration-time profile of both parent drug and its glucuronidated metabolite. The pharmacokinetic and statistical analysis revealed that pretreatment with the enzymatic inhibitor increased the mean atomoxetine AUC0–t (from 1151.19±686.52 to 1495.54±812.40 [ng*h/mL]) and AUC0–∞ (from 1229.15±751.04 to 1619.37±955.01 [ng*h/mL]) while kel was decreased and the mean t1/2 was prolonged. With regard to 4-hydroxyatomoxetine-O-glucuronide, Cmax was reduced from 688.76±270.27 to 621.60±248.82 [ng/mL] after coadministration of atomoxetine and duloxetine. Conclusions: Duloxetine had an impact on the pharmacokinetics of atomoxetine as it increased the exposure to the latter by ~30%. Although the magnitude of this pharmacokinetic interaction is rather small, a potential clinical relevance cannot be ruled out with certainty without further investigation.
GREEN MANURING WITH HERBACEOUS LEGUMES FOR MAIZE PRODUCTION IN THE CENTRAL HIGHLANDS OF KENYA

Low and declining soils are a major constraint to agricultural production and food security in the central highlands of Kenya. In the maize-based farming systems, continuous cultivation without adequate soil fertility enhancement measures has led to a deterioration of land quality resulting in low agricultural yields. Herbaceous legumes offer a low-cost soil improvement option for the low-economic and resource endowed farming communities with low purchasing power for the other types of farm inputs. This study explored the use of three legumes as sources of nitrogen for maize crop nutrition and soil fertility improvement. The green manure legumes (GML) were mucuna [Mucuna pruriens (L.) DC. Var. utilis (Wright) Bruck], crotalaria [Crotalaria ochroleuca G. Don] and lablab [Lablab purpureus (L) Sweet cv. Rongai]. Legume herbage production was dependent upon the seasonal rainfall but results of maize grain yield after mucuna, crotalaria and lablab residues was 2.5, 2.3 and 1.6 times, respectively, than those of the control (no residues applied). Similarly, maize biomass production for five cropping seasons showed that mucuna and crotalaria plots yielded significantly more stover than the control. Legume residue incorporation for three years resulted in a slight reduction (0.9-1.8%) in soil bulk density, a small increase in the soil total N but no change in the soil pH.
