description: Similarity search is a popular technique for seismic signal processing, with template matching, matched filters and subspace detectors being utilized for a wide variety of tasks, including both signal detection and source discrimination. Traditionally, these techniques rely on the cross-correlation function as the basis for measuring similarity. Unfortunately, seismogram correlation is dominated by path effects, essentially requiring a distinct waveform template along each path of interest. To address this limitation, we propose a novel measure of seismogram similarity that is explicitly invariant to path. Using Earthscope's USArray experiment, a path-rich dataset of 207,291 regional seismograms across 8,452 unique events is constructed, and then employed via the batch-hard triplet loss function, to train a deep convolutional neural network which maps raw seismograms to a low dimensional embedding space, where nearness on the space corresponds to nearness of source function, regardless of path or recording instrumentation. This path-agnostic embedding space forms a new representation for seismograms, characterized by robust, source-specific features, which we show to be useful for performing both pairwise event association as well as template-based source discrimination with a single template.

description: Monier and Rabin proved that an odd composite can pass the Strong Probable Prime Test for at most $\frac 14$ of the possible bases. In this paper, a probable prime test is developed using quadratic polynomials and the Frobenius automorphism. The test, along with a fixed number of trial divisions, ensures that a composite $n$ will pass for less than $\frac 1{7710}$ of the polynomials $x^2-bx-c$ with $\left(b^2+4c\over n\right)=-1$ and $\left(-c\over n\right)=1$. The running time of the test is asymptotically $3$ times that of the Strong Probable Prime Test.

subject: Crystalline cubic silicon carbide

description: Silicon carbide (SiC) is emerging as a potential material for harsh environment applications owing to its superior electrical and mechanical properties, as well as excellent chemical inertness. Among more than 200 polytypes, single crystalline cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC) is attracting signi cant research interest due to its higher channel mobility and lower energy bandgap that make it the most suitable polytype for developing electronic and optoelectronic devices. The 3C-SiC lms are usually grown on 4H-SiC, 6H-SiC, and Si-substrates due to the lack of 3C-SiC-substrate. Unlike other 3C-SiC heterostructures, 3C-SiC/Si is the preferable heterojunction for Micro/Nano-Electro-Mechanical Systems (M/NEMS) applications as it can be grown on commercially available large Si-wafers, and hence the cost of wafers reduces significantly. However, most of the 3C-SiC/Si-based devices have utilized only the 3C-SiC layer as a functioning layer. This research aims to theoretically and experimentally investigate the optical and optoelectronic e ects on 3C-SiC/Si heterojunctions and explores the potential of enhancing the sensitivity of 3C-SiC/Si-based devices via the optomechanical coupling e ect. The rst purpose of this study is to examine the e ect of optical illumination on the 3C-SiC thin lm and evaluates the possibility to use it as a thermoresistive sensor for monitoring cell temperature during an optical investigation. Furthermore, this research intends to investigate the photoconductive behaviors of the 3C-SiC/Si heterojunction under UV and visible illuminations. The characteristics of the heterojunction are also evaluated under broad spectral illuminations (UV-NIR) to prove its potential to perform as a self-powered photodetector. In addition, the possibility of enhancing the sensitivity of a 3C-SiC/Si heterostructure based piezoresistive sensor by employing the optomechanical coupling e ect is also examined. The results from this study imply the feasibility of using 3C-SiC/Si heterostructure for various M/NEMS applications (such as photodetectors, thermoresistive sensors, and piezoresistive sensors) in optical environments. Moreover, the in-depth discussion about the carrier generation and transport mechanisms will provide vital information for the development of 3C-SiC/Si optoelectronic devices. This thesis is prepared in a \thesis by publications" format. The published journal articles are presented in chapters 3 (partially), 4, 5, and 6.
A blow-up result for a semilinear wave equation with scale-invariant damping and mass and nonlinearity of derivative type

description: In this note, we prove blow-up results for semilinear wave models with damping and mass in the scale-invariant case and with nonlinear terms of derivative type. We consider the single equation and the weakly coupled system. In the first case we get a blow-up result for exponents below a certain shift of the Glassey exponent. For the weakly coupled system we find as critical curve a shift of the corresponding curve for the weakly coupled system of semilinear wave equations with the same kind of nonlinearities. Our approach follows the one for the respective classical wave equation by Zhou Yi. In particular, an explicit integral representation formula for a solution of the corresponding linear scale-invariant wave equation, which is derived by using Yagdjian's integral transform approach, is employed in the blow-up argument. While in the case of the single equation we may use a comparison argument, for the weakly coupled system an iteration argument is applied.

description: Since the 1970s, a large number of encryption schemes have been proposed, among which some have been standardised and widely adopted all over the world, such as data encryption standard (DES) and advanced encryption standard (AES). However, due to the special features of three-dimensional (3D) content, these encryption standards are not a suitable solution for 3D ap- plications. The problem of 3D content encryption is beyond the application of established and well-known encryption algorithms. This is primarily due to the structure of 3D content and the way it is used commercially. Unlike data encryption, where a complete bitstream is encrypted, 3D content encryption introduces several challenges. One of the greatest challenges of 3D con tent encryption is that, in comparison with traditional data and 2D images, 3D content implies a higher level representation or semantics, and in many 3D applications, it is necessary to maintain 3D semantics, such as the spatial and dimensional stability. The major aim of this thesis is to investigate innovative solutions for encrypting 3D content which ensures the usability of encrypted content through maintaining the spatial and dimensional semantics. To this end, we overviewed the relevant background of 3D content and data encryption. We also investigated the limitations of the current techniques in addressing the challenges of 3D content encryption. The literature review delineated the scope of the research and identified the existing problems and limitations.

description: We study a new link between the Steklov and Neumann eigenvalues of domains in Euclidean space. This is obtained through an homogenisation limit of the Steklov problem on a periodically perforated domain, converging to a family of eigenvalue problems with dynamical boundary conditions. For this problem, the spectral parameter appears both in the interior of the domain and on its boundary. This intermediary problem interpolates between Steklov and Neumann eigenvalues of the domain. As a corollary, we recover some isoperimetric type bounds for Neumann eigenvalues from known isoperimetric bounds for Steklov eigenvalues. The interpolation also leads to the construction of planar domains with first perimeter-normalized Stekov eigenvalue that is larger than any previously known example. The proofs are based on a modification of the energy method. It requires quantitative estimates for norms of harmonic functions. An intermediate step in the proof provides a homogenisation result for a transmission problem.

description: Results concerning recurrence and ergodicity are proved in an abstract Hilbert space setting based on the proof of Khintchine's recurrence theorem for sets, and on the Hilbert space characterization of ergodicity. These results are carried over to a non-commutative *-algebraic setting using the GNS-construction. This generalizes the corresponding measure theoretic results, in particular a variation of Khintchine's Theorem for ergodic systems, where the image of one set overlaps with another set, instead of with itself.

description: Effective prediction of objects drifting on the water surface is essential to successful maritime search and rescue (SAR) services, since a more accurate prediction of the object’s likely location results in a greater probability for the success of a SAR operation. SAR drift models, based on Lagrangian stochastic particle trajectory models, are frequently utilised for this task. More recently, metocean (meteorological and oceanographic) forecast data has been used as input to these models to provide the environmental forcing (due to winds and ocean currents) that the object may be subject to. Further, the slip of a drifting object across the water surface due to the ambient wind and waves (irrespective of currents) is described by its leeway drift coefficients, which are also required by the SAR drift model to calculate the potential drift of the object. This study examined several ways to improve the prediction of an objects drift on the water surface, with the primary focus being the improvement of SAR forecasting. To achieve this, many simulations were undertaken, comparing the trajectories of actual drifters deployed in the ocean, and the corresponding model simulations of drift, using the commercially available SARMAP (Search and Rescue Mapping and Analysis Program) SAR drift model. Each drifter trajectory was simulated independently using a different ocean model to provide ocean current forcing. The ocean models tested included BLUElink, FOAM (Forecasting Ocean Assimilation Model), HYCOM (Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model) and NCOM (Navy Coastal Ocean Model).

description: We present the first LOFAR observations of the radio jet in the quasar 4C+19.44 (a.k.a. PKS 1354+19) obtained with the long baselines. The achieved resolution is very well matched to that of archival Jansky Very Large Array (JVLA) observations at higher radio frequencies as well as the archival X-ray images obtained with {\it Chandra}. We found that, for several knots along the jet, the radio flux densities measured at hundreds of MHz lie well below the values estimated by extrapolating the GHz spectra. This clearly indicates the presence of spectral curvature. Radio spectral curvature has been already observed in different source classes and/or extended radio structures and it has been often interpreted as due to intrinsic processes, as a curved particle energy distribution, rather than absorption mechanisms ({ Razin-Tsytovich} effect, free-free or synchrotron self absorption to name a few). Here we discuss our results according to the scenario where particles undergo stochastic acceleration mechanisms also in quasar jet knots.

description: After presenting a novel O(n^3) parsing algorithm for dependency grammar, we develop three contrasting ways to stochasticize it. We propose (a) a lexical affinity model where words struggle to modify each other, (b) a sense tagging model where words fluctuate randomly in their selectional preferences, and (c) a generative model where the speaker fleshes out each word's syntactic and conceptual structure without regard to the implications for the hearer. We also give preliminary empirical results from evaluating the three models' parsing performance on annotated Wall Street Journal training text (derived from the Penn Treebank). In these results, the generative (i.e., top-down) model performs significantly better than the others, and does about equally well at assigning part-of-speech tags.

Our analysis is motivated by recent experiments [C. Forsythe et al., Nat. Nanotechnol. 13, 566 (2018)] wherein gate-tunable superlattice potentials have been induced on graphene by nanostructuring a dielectric in the graphene/patterneddielectric/gate structure. We demonstrate how the electronic tight-binding structure of the superlattice system resembles a gapped Dirac model with associated valley dependent transport using an unfolding procedure. In this manner we obtain the valley Hall conductivities from the Berry curvature distribution in the superlattice Brillouin zone, and demonstrate the tunability of this conductivity by the superlattice potential. Finally, we calculate the valley Hall angle relating the transverse valley current and longitudinal charge current and demonstrate the robustness of the valley currents against irregularities in the patterned dielectric.

description: In 1966, John Kander, Fred Ebb, and Joe Masteroff’s now classic musical "Cabaret" premiered on Broadway. An innovative piece of theater that combined conventional book scenes with metaphoric cabaret numbers representing the rise of fascism in 1930s Germany, "Cabaret" also stands out as an example of the significant role of a director in the development of a new musical. Director Harold Prince challenged his collaborators to make the production, set in the past, resonate in the present moment, asserting that the political changes that came to Germany with the rise of Nazism could also happen in 1960s America. Sam Mendes brought the next significant take on the musical to Broadway in 1998 in an intimate and sexually-charged production, reconfiguring the theater itself into a 1930s cabaret space. In 2019, I directed a production of "Cabaret" as my Columbia University MFA Theatre Directing Thesis Production. Following the lead of Prince, I used the vision of a queer utopia to make the work resonate with a twenty-first century audience. Working against a post-war convention of conflating queerness and fascism in depictions of Nazism, this thesis paper traces how my production reconfigured the cabaret as a real space of LGBTQ+ community and resistance. Inspired by works such as José Esteban Muñoz’s "Cruising Utopia: The Then and There of Queer Futurity", Jack Halberstam’s "The Queer Art of Failure", "Divine Decadence: Fascism, Female Spectacle, and the Makings of Sally Bowles" by Linda Mizejewski, and Robert Beachy’s "Gay Berlin: Birthplace of a Modern Identity", this thesis paper traces my investigation into the presence of minoritarian sexual and gender identities in Weimar era Berlin and my study of recent movements in queer theory. Through these sources, alongside a directorial approach that emphasized non-hierarchal and accountable collaboration, I sought to create a process that echoed the radical and inclusive welcome we were to present on stage. This glimpse of a queer utopia, and the reimagining of the character of Sally Bowles as an activist leader, aimed to ask an audience of today: if faced with similar catastrophic forces, “What would you do?”

description: The aim of this paper is to propose a geometric framework for modelling similarity search in large and multidimensional data spaces of general nature, which seems to be flexible enough to address such issues as analysis of complexity, indexability, and the `curse of dimensionality.' Such a framework is provided by the concept of the so-called similarity workload, which is a probability metric space $Ω$ (query domain) with a distinguished finite subspace $X$ (dataset), together with an assembly of concepts, techniques, and results from metric geometry. They include such notions as metric transform, $\e$-entropy, and the phenomenon of concentration of measure on high-dimensional structures. In particular, we discuss the relevance of the latter to understanding the curse of dimensionality. As some of those concepts and techniques are being currently reinvented by the database community, it seems desirable to try and bridge the gap between database research and the relevant work already done in geometry and analysis.

description: A wide variety of contaminants have been introduced in the environment by anthropogenic activities or natural processes. Pollution not only affects humans but also severely hampers the ecosystem by destroying habitats of the affected flora and fauna. In addition, a variety of environments such as subsurface aquifers, oceans, anoxic soils, sediments and soda lakes have been affected. Contaminants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are of significance as they have been identified as mutagenic, carcinogenic and teratogenic. Methods such as use of dispersants, solvent mixtures and detergents have been employed for the clean-up of the affected sites. These chemicals may be useful in the short-term but they significantly affect the surviving organisms and alter the food-chain of the ecosystem. In addition, they don’t necessarily destroy and may mobilize contaminants. In recent years, focus has shifted towards natural processes for degradation of contaminants. Bacteria can be employed for successful, sustainable and harmless clean up of such contaminated environments. Attenuation of pollutants including hydrocarbons such as PAHs can be achieved under aerobic conditions by intrinsic bacteria present in the impacted site or by introduction of organisms capable of biodegradation. Few studies have investigated the degradation potential and mechanisms of bacteria in anoxic, saline and alkaline conditions.

description: Since the adoption of the Hyogo Framework for Action in 2005 ‘Building the resilience of nations and communities to disasters’, the concept of disaster resilience has attracted substantial attention among researchers and practitioners. Although recent disaster literature refers to resilience as a managerial principle of an effective disaster risk management, there are still critical challenges in making resilience operational and adopting it in planning and decision making. Currently available resilience measurement frameworks are mostly focused on large spatial scales such as sub- national/regional levels and do not meet the local needs of designers and planners, while communities are the focus of mitigation and recovery planning, with unique local socio-economic and physical characteristics, and inherent adaptation potential. More specifically, urban form characteristics are assumed by several studies to contribute to the disaster resilience of communities. However, such an assumption has not been examined empirically and urban form factors are mostly under-represented in the resilience models. In addition, sensitivity, reliability and validity of the resilience models have not been addressed comprehensively, and when it comes to the Australian context, resilience models have not been validated at all. The purpose of this dissertation is to address the above gaps through (1) development of a Neighbourhood Disaster Resilience Index (NDRI) with emphasise on resilience attributes within community elements; and (2) validation of the proposed index (NDRI) by assessing the extent to which it contributes to real-world recovery outcomes and pathways following the 2011 floods in the Brisbane and Ipswich neighbourhoods, using readily available longitudinal reconstruction data.

title: Colombia's Classical Guitar Repertoire: Traditional, Traditional-Popular, and Art Music Idioms
Creators: name: Duque Cuartas, Alejandro
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: classical guitar repertoire
subject: Colombia

description: This research explores the diversity of Colombia’s classical guitar repertoire (CCGR). Using musicological and artistic approaches, it aims to expand understanding of the wide stylistic range and diversity of CCGR. In particular, building on previous categorisations of Colombian music, this project offers a three-part framework for better understanding the diversity of CCGR idioms in their contemporary manifestations: namely, traditional, traditional-popular, and art music. Drawing on methods characteristic of historical musicology and artistic research, this research contributes to new understandings of these CCGR idioms through (1) inductive thematic analysis of academic and non-academic publications, including creative outputs such as compositional scores and recordings related to CCGR and the music genres involved; and (2) a CD I recorded for this research that showcases repertoire—including a world premiere piece—displaying the diversity of CCGR across the three idioms outlined above. It is hoped that the research outcomes will (a) expand current knowledge of the nature and diversity of CCGR, (b) help to profile and disseminate relatively unknown CCGR, and (c) inform future research on Colombian music and CCGR. In these ways, these outcomes may be of interest and benefit to composers, guitarists, and researchers, particularly but not only those from Colombia, in understanding, identifying and contextualising the diversity of CCGR.
Detecting multipartite entanglement structure with minimal resources

description: Recently, there are tremendous developments on the number of controllable qubits in several quantum computing systems. For these implementations, it is crucial to determine the entanglement structure of the prepared multipartite quantum state as a basis for further information processing tasks. In reality, evaluation of a multipartite state is in general a very challenging task owing to the exponential increase of the Hilbert space with respect to the number of system components. In this work, we propose a systematic method using very few local measurements to detect multipartite entanglement structures based on the graph state --- one of the most important classes of quantum states for quantum information processing. Thanks to the close connection between the Schmidt coefficient and quantum entropy in graph states, we develop a family of efficient witness operators to detect the entanglement between subsystems under any partitions and hence the entanglement intactness. We show that the number of local measurements equals to the chromatic number of the underlying graph, which is a constant number, independent of the number of qubits. In reality, the optimization problem involved in the witnesses can be challenging with large system size. For several widely-used graph states, such as 1-D and 2-D cluster states and the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state, by taking advantage of the area law of entanglement entropy, we derive analytical solutions for the witnesses, which only employ two local measurements. Our method offers a standard tool for entanglement structure detection to benchmark multipartite quantum systems.

description: In this paper, we focus on the problem of existence and computing of small and large stable models. We show that for every fixed integer k, there is a linear-time algorithm to decide the problem LSM (large stable models problem): does a logic program P have a stable model of size at least |P|-k. In contrast, we show that the problem SSM (small stable models problem) to decide whether a logic program P has a stable model of size at most k is much harder. We present two algorithms for this problem but their running time is given by polynomials of order depending on k. We show that the problem SSM is fixed-parameter intractable by demonstrating that it is W[2]-hard. This result implies that it is unlikely, an algorithm exists to compute stable models of size at most k that would run in time O(n^c), where c is a constant independent of k. We also provide an upper bound on the fixed-parameter complexity of the problem SSM by showing that it belongs to the class W[3].

description: This paper proves the existence of infinitely many Perrin pseudoprimes, as conjectured by Adams and Shanks in 1982. The theorem proven covers a general class of pseudoprimes based on recurrence sequences. The result uses ingredients of the proof of the infinitude of Carmichael numbers, along with zero-density estimates for Hecke L-functions.
