Inter-universal Teichmüller Theory III: Canonical Splittings of the Log-Theta-Lattice

The present paper constitutes the third paper in a series of four papers and may be regarded as the culmination of the abstract conceptual portion of the theory developed in the series. In the present paper, we study the theory surrounding the log-theta-lattice, a highly non-commutative two-dimensional diagram of “miniature models of conventional scheme theory”, called Θ±ellNF-Hodge theaters. Here, we recall that Θ±ellNF-Hodge theaters were associated, in the first paper of the series, to certain data, called initial Θ-data, that includes an elliptic curve EF over a number field F , together with a prime number l ≥ 5. Each arrow of the log-theta-lattice corresponds to a certain gluing operation between the Θ±ellNF-Hodge theaters in the domain and codomain of the arrow. The horizontal arrows of the log-theta-lattice are defined as certain versions of the “Θ-link” that was constructed, in the second paper of the series, by applying the theory of HodgeArakelov-theoretic evaluation — i.e., evaluation in the style of the scheme-theoretic Hodge-Arakelov theory established by the author in previous papers — of the [reciprocal of the l-th root of the] theta function at l-torsion points. In the present paper, we focus on the theory surrounding the log-link between Θ±ellNFHodge theaters. The log-link is obtained, roughly speaking, by applying, at each [say, for simplicity, nonarchimedean] valuation of the number field under consideration, the local p-adic logarithm. The significance of the log-link lies in the fact that it allows one to construct log-shells, i.e., roughly speaking, slightly adjusted forms of the image of the local units at the valuation under consideration via the local p-adic logarithm. The theory of log-shells was studied extensively in a previous paper by the author. The vertical arrows of the log-theta-lattice are given by the log-link. Consideration of various properties of the log-theta-lattice leads naturally to the establishment of multiradial algorithms for constructing “splitting monoids of logarithmic Gaussian procession monoids”. Here, we recall that “multiradial algorithms” are algorithms that make sense from the point of view of an “alien arithmetic holomorphic structure”, i.e., the ring/scheme structure of a Θ±ellNF-Hodge theater related to a given Θ±ellNF-Hodge theater by means of a non-ring/scheme-theoretic horizontal arrow of the log-theta-lattice. These logarithmic Gaussian procession monoids, or LGP-monoids, for short, may be thought of as the log-shell-theoretic versions of the Gaussian monoids that were studied in the second paper of the series. Finally, by applying these multiradial algorithms for splitting monoids of LGP-monoids, we obtain estimates for the log-volume of these LGP-monoids. Explicit computations of these estimates will be applied, in the fourth paper of the series, to derive various diophantine results. Typeset by AMS-TEX 1 2 SHINICHI MOCHIZUKI
Exploring the determinants of university students’ contribution intention on crowdsourcing platforms: a value maximization perspective

ABSTRACT Crowdsourcing is an emerging web-enabled method to gain external expertise and ideas on tasks or projects. Mass contributions from the crowd are the key to the success and effectiveness of crowdsourcing. University students are important potential users and promising sources of contributions in the crowdsourcing context. However, little is known about the factors that shape university students’ intention to participate in this new web frontier. Thus, the current study investigates the determinants of university students’ contribution intention on crowdsourcing platforms. Based on the value-based adoption model (VAM) and crowdsourcing characteristics, this study develops a model to understand the determinants of university students’ intention to contribute ideas and solutions on crowdsourcing platforms. Data collected from 135 university students in Taiwan were tested against the research model using the partial least squares (PLS) method. The results indicate that perceived value and perceived behavioral control are key determinants of university students’ contribution intention on crowdsourcing platforms, and that reputation, perceived enjoyment, task autonomy, and trust are significant factors affecting perceived value. This study contributes to extend the knowledge regarding how to better promote crowdsourcing contributions, as well as how to foster and encourage university students to participate in crowdsourcing activities.
Environmental impact of rejuvenators in asphalt mixtures containing high reclaimed asphalt content

ABSTRACT The use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) is of increasing importance due to fast-growing amounts of demolished road materials. However, reclaimed asphalt can contain relevant amounts of pollutants such as carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and toxic metals. In order to improve the mechanical properties of recycled asphalt, rejuvenators are used to reduce the stiffness of the aged binder. These rejuvenators in turn may potentially mobilise pollutants like PAHs and facilitate their leaching to surface and ground waters. The environmental impact of three rejuvenators with good mechanical performance was studied. The environmental impact was assessed by determining metal- and PAH contents in the RAP and in leachates. Chemical analyses showed that rejuvenators did not mobilise PAHs from RAP materials for 2–3 ring PAHs. However, some 4–6 ring PAHs that are relatively less toxic indeed leached more easily from unaged material. Ageing reduced the tendency for PAH leaching, without and with rejuvenator.

Cloud Feedbacks from CanESM2 to CanESM5.0 and their
Inﬂuence on Climate Sensitivity

Abstract. The newest iteration of the Canadian Earth System Model (CanESM5.0.3) has an Effective Climate Sensitivity (ECS) of 5.65 kelvin, which is a 54 % increase relative to the model's previous version (CanESM2 – 3.67 K), and the highest sensitivity of all current models participating in the sixth phase of the coupled model inter-comparison project (CMIP6). Here, we explore the underlying causes behind CanESM5's increased ECS via comparison of forcing and feedbacks between CanESM2 and CanESM5. We find only modest differences in radiative forcing as a response to CO2 between model versions. Through the use of cloud area fraction output and radiative kernels, we find that more positive shortwave cloud feedbacks – particularly with regards to low clouds across the equatorial pacific, as well as sub/extratropical free troposphere cloud optical depth – are the dominant contributors to CanESM5's increased climate sensitivity. Additional simulations with prescribed sea surface temperatures reveal that the spatial pattern of surface temperature change explains the pattern of change in low cloud fraction, but does not fully explain the increased ECS in CanESM5. The results from CanESM5 are consistent with increased ECS in several other CMIP6 models, which has been primarily attributed to changes in shortwave cloud feedbacks.
Supporting Teachers on Their STEAM Journey: A Collaborative STEAM Teacher Training Program

There is growing enthusiasm for STEAM education in preparing students for an increasingly complex world. However, implementing STEAM in the classroom can be challenging for educators, as it may require collaboration across disciplines, increased workload, and understanding the nature of STEAM integration. This paper details a mixed-methods evaluation of a year-long STEAM teacher training program, in which a STEM teacher and an arts teacher collaborated to design and implement integrated STEAM lessons at each of the nine participating schools (n = 17). The training program consisted of a 5-week summer professional development experience, followed by ongoing financial, material, and pedagogical support during the school year, made possible by the partnership of the schools, a university, and community organizations. Findings from surveys, focus groups, and written reflections suggest that, despite certain challenges, aspects of the training program supported teacher implementation of STEAM. Participation in the program impacted teachers’ collaboration, pedagogy, self-efficacy, and arts integration practices. The findings offer insight into the forms of support that teachers deem important in STEAM teacher training programs and the benefits of such a program for teachers’ professional development.
Promoting health education through biology: The effectivity of a 5E-learning scenario on nutrition and digestive system topic towards high school students’ health literacy

As one of the sustainable development goals (SDGs), good health and wellbeing needs to be supported especially through science education program. Therefore, this research is aimed to examine the effect of a 5E learning scenario in biology instruction on nutrition and digestive system topic towards high school students’ health literacy. This was a quasi-experimental research that involved two groups of students from a public high school in Bantul region, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. One group played as a treatment group who learned the topic using 5E learning scenario, whilst another one as the control group who was taught by lecturing method. Pre-test and post-test instruments were employed to collect students’ health literacy data and analysed descriptively towards its indicators as well as statistically using Wilcoxon and Mann U Whitney. The findings show that the treatment group’s health literacy skill is significantly better than the control group (0.00; p:0.05). Therefore, it is concluded that the 5E-learning model implemented in this research evident more effective in fostering students’ health literacy.
The tryptophan pathway and nicotinamide supplementation in ischaemic acute kidney injury

ABSTRACT Background Down-regulation of the enzymes involved in tryptophan-derived nicotinamide (NAM) adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) production was identified after acute kidney injury (AKI), leading to the hypothesis that supplementation with NAM may increase the kidney NAD+ content, rescuing tryptophan pathways and subsequently improving kidney outcomes. Methods Urinary measurement of tryptophan and kynurenin using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry metabolomics was used in a cohort of 167 cardiac bypass surgery patients along with tests for correlation to the development of postoperative AKI. A mouse model of ischaemic AKI using ischaemia–reperfusion injury (bilateral clamping of renal arteries for 25 min) was also used. Results We identified a significant decrease in urinary tryptophan and kynurenin in patients developing AKI, irrespective of the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) stage. Although a significant difference was observed, tryptophan and kynurenin moderately discriminated for the development of all AKI KDIGO stages {area under the curve [AUC] 0.82 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.75–0.88] and 0.75 [0.68–0.83], respectively} and severe KDIGO Stages 2–3 AKI [AUC 0.71 (95% CI 0.6–0.81) and 0.66 (0.55–0.77), respectively]. Sparked by this confirmation in humans, we aimed to confirm the potential preventive effect of NAM supplementation in wild-type male and female C57BL/6 mice subjected to ischaemic AKI. NAM supplementation had no effect on renal function (blood urea nitrogen at Day 1, sinistrin–fluorescein isothiocyanate glomerular filtration rate), architecture (periodic acid–Schiff staining) and injury or inflammation (kidney injury molecule 1 and IL18 messenger RNA expression). In addition, NAM supplementation did not increase post-AKI NAD+ kidney content. Conclusion Notwithstanding the potential role of NAM supplementation in the setting of basal NAD+ deficiency, our findings in mice and the reanalysis of published data do not confirm that NAM supplementation can actually improve renal outcomes after ischaemic AKI in unselected animals and probably patients.
Impact of employee pro-organizational unethical behavior on performance evaluation rated by supervisor: a moderated mediation model of supervisor bottom-line mentality

Purpose The topic of employees’ unethical pro-organizational behavior (UPB) has attracted more and more interest in both practice and academic fields. However, previous studies have mainly investigated the antecedents of UPB and little research has discussed the outcome variables. This study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the effect mechanism of UPB on employee performance evaluation rated by a supervisor through a leader-member exchange (LMX) and the moderating role of supervisor bottom-line mentality (BLM). Design/methodology/approach This study used a sample consisting of 304 employees and 96 supervisors in several manufacturing firms in China. The authors used hierarchical linear modeling to test the hypotheses, as this was cross-level research. In addition, this paper also uses Mplus7.4 to test the moderating effects of supervisor BLM on the indirect effects between the UPB and performance evaluation by a moderated path analysis. Findings The results confirm that UPB is positively related to performance evaluation rated by supervisors. Additionally, the mediating effect of LMX in the relationship between UPB and performance evaluation is successfully demonstrated. Furthermore, supervisor BLM cross-levelly moderates the relationship between UPB and LMX, as well as moderates the mediation effect of LMX on the correlation between UPB and performance evaluation. Research limitations/implications The primary contribution of this research is building a cross-level model for the effect of UPB on followers’ performance evaluation scored by the supervisor and thereby extending the nomological networks of both UPB and performance evaluation literature. Another contribution the study makes to the literature is that it provides a new perspective to understand how UPB relates to followers’ performance evaluation. Originality/value This is the first study about how and when UPB predicts followers’ performance evaluation rated by the supervisor.
Relaxation of Tibetan Lower Crust and Afterslip Driven by the 2001 Mw7.8 Kokoxili, China, Earthquake Constrained by a Decade of Geodetic Measurements

We model the time‐dependent postseismic displacements following the 2001 Mw7.8 Kokoxili earthquake, including both GPS (2001–2002 for near‐field and 2001–2010 for far‐field) and descending‐track InSAR line‐of‐sight time series (2003–2010) to study three postseismic deformation processes. The predicted deformation patterns and magnitude from poroelastic rebound are inconsistent with the geodetic observations. Far‐field postseismic deformation (>200 km from rupture) is primarily induced by upper mantle viscoelastic relaxation beneath Tibet and the Qaidam Basin and places a lower bound on transient and steady‐state viscosities on the order of 1019–1020 Pas. Shallow stress‐driven afterslip (<20 km) on the Kunlun Pass fault localizes deformation in the near‐fault area and helps explain the GPS‐measured displacement gradient across the fault. Deep stress‐driven afterslip in the downdip region of the coseismic rupture (>20 km) has an amplitude of ∼1 m during the first 3 years. Our results indicate that the consideration of deep afterslip increases our estimates of transient viscosity of the lower crust beneath Tibet and the Qaidam basin for this earthquake by as much as a factor of three. Our combined model incorporating viscoelastic relaxation and afterslip suggests that the effective transient and steady‐state viscosities in the Tibetan lower crust are 5 × 1018 Pas and 4 × 1019 Pas, respectively (transient viscosity = 2 × 1018 Pas without afterslip considered), while the effective transient and steady‐state viscosities below the Qaidam Basin area are 1 × 1019 Pas and 6 × 1019 Pas (transient viscosity = 4 × 1018 Pas without afterslip considered).
A Pharmacist-Led Oral Chemotherapy Program's Impact on Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Patient Satisfaction, Adherence, and Outcomes

Patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) can be treated with oral tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Pharmacist-led oral chemotherapy programs (POCPs) can improve TKI adherence rates, but evaluation of patient satisfaction with such programs is rare. The purpose of this analysis was to compare the satisfaction of patients with CML taking TKIs enrolled in a POCP program with that of those not enrolled. Secondary objectives were to assess adherence rates, patient-reported value, early molecular response (EMR) rates, and major molecular response (MMR) rates. This study utilized an anonymous telephone survey of patients who had taken TKIs for at least 3 months. Molecular response was determined by chart review. Of 40 patients surveyed, 50% were enrolled in the POCP, and the POCP group had more African Americans than the non-POCP group. More patients in the POCP were satisfied with their care than in the non-POCP group (100% vs. 75%, p = .047). There were no differences in high patient-reported adherence (55% vs. 60%, p = 1.000), patient-reported value for integrated services (95% vs. 90%, p = 1.000), achievement of EMR (75% vs. 75%, p = 1.000), or MMR (85% vs. 85%, p = 1.000). Patients in the POCP received more structured clinical pharmacy services; however, both groups felt the clinical pharmacist played a major role in their care (85% vs. 90%, p = 1.000). Patients in the non-POCP group reported lower satisfaction than those enrolled resulting from fragmented care that was likely due to external specialty pharmacies. Irrespective of POCP enrollment, patients reported clinical pharmacists play a major role in their therapy and value integration of their specialty pharmacy and medical team.
Automated detection and analysis of surface calving waves with a
terrestrial radar interferometer at the front of Eqip Sermia,
Greenland

Abstract. Glacier calving is a key dynamical process of the Greenland ice sheet and a major driver of its increasing mass loss. Calving waves, generated by the sudden detachment of ice from the glacier terminus, can reach tens of meters of height and provide very valuable insights to quantify calving activity. In this study, we present a new method for the detection of source location, timing and magnitude of calving waves using a terrestrial radar interferometer. This method was applied to 11500 one-minute interval acquisitions from Eqip Sermia, West Greenland, in July 2018. During seven days, more than 2000 calving waves were detected, including waves generated by submarine calving which are difficult to observe with other methods. Quantitative assessment with a Wave Power Index (WPI) yields a higher wave activity (+49 %) and higher temporally cumulated WPI (+34 %) in deep water than under shallow conditions. Subglacial meltwater plumes, occurring 2.3 times more often in the deep sector, increase WPI and the number of waves by a factor 1.8 and 1.3 respectively in the deep and shallow sector. We therefore explain the higher calving activity in the deep sector by a combination of more frequent meltwater plumes and more efficient calving enhancement linked with better connections to warm deep ocean water.
State-Level Influences on Community-Level Municipal Sustainable Energy Policies

State and local governments engage each other in a broad set of complicated interdependent relationships. Yet, there is limited research on what these multilevel governance relationships mean for community-focused sustainability. This study applies a transaction cost federalism framework to examine the hierarchical influences of state fiscal support and policy actions on municipal commitments to sustainability at the community-level. An analysis of U.S. cities reveals that state investments in energy programs encourage municipal efforts for incentivized energy efficiency initiatives for local taxpayers. Larger percentages of state funding directed to energy programs lead to stronger municipal commitments to incentivized sustainability programs such as individual grants, direct loans, and tax incentives. The results suggest that stable and supportive multilevel governance systems are key for reducing political transaction costs inherent within vertical systems driven by coercive authority. These findings produce theoretical and practical implications for understanding community-level sustainability within the face of “contested federalism. ”
