description: When eight-dimensional instantons, satisfying F \wedge F = \pm \star_8 (F\wedge F), shrink to zero size, we find stringy objects in higher order ten-dimensional Yang-Mills (viewed as a low-energy limit of open string theory). The associated F^4 action is a combination of two independent parts having a single-trace and a double-trace structure. As a result we get a D-string from the single-trace term and a fundamental string from the double-trace. The latter has (8,0) supersymmetry on the worldsheet and couplings to the background gauge fields of a heterotic string. A correlation between the conformal factor of the instanton and the tachyon field is conjectured.

Directly Mapping RDF Databases to Property Graph Databases

description: RDF triplestores and property graph databases are two approaches for data management which are based on modeling, storing, and querying graph-like data. In spite of such common principles, they present special features that complicate the task of database interoperability. While there exist some methods to transform RDF graphs into property graphs, and vice versa, they lack compatibility and a solid formal foundation. This paper presents three direct mappings (schema-dependent and schema-independent) for transforming an RDF database into a property graph database, including data and schema. We show that two of the proposed mappings satisfy the properties of semantics preservation and information preservation. The existence of both mappings allows us to conclude that the property graph data model subsumes the information capacity of the RDF data model.

From bulk loops to boundary large-N expansion

description: We study the analytic structure of loop Witten diagrams in Euclidean AdS represented by their conformal partial wave expansions. We show that, as in flat space, amplitude's singularities are associated with non-trivial cuts of the diagram and factorize into products of the coefficient functions for the subdiagrams resulting from these cuts. We consider an example of a one-loop four-point diagram in detail and then briefly discuss how the procedure can be extended to more general diagrams. Finally, we show that this analysis reproduces simple relations that follow from the large-N considerations on the boundary.

description: Properties of local minima as a function of density are studied in a binary Lennard-Jones system for kinetic equipartition temperatures $T=1.0$ (normal liquid), 0.5 (supercooled liquid), and 0.4 (glass), in reduced units. The number of different local minima sampled, energy, pressure, normal mode angular frequencies, mean distance between all pairs of local minima and partial radial distribution functions are presented. In agreement with previous studies by Sastry [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 85}, 590 (2000)] a limiting density is found at $ρ_l=1.06$ with negative pressure, below which the local structure of the glass and the supercooled phases are essentially the same, as evidenced by the partial radial distribution functions. The mean energy, pressure, and normal mode frequencies have values that are practically independent of the temperature below $ρ_l$.

description: Las políticas públicas son parte fundamental de la gestión y administración pública, por tal razón también son objeto de constantes cuestionamientos en relación con el éxito o fracaso de estas. Los constructores y tomadores de decisiones en políticas públicas han tratado de involucrar diversos sectores técnicos y políticos para el diseño de soluciones a situaciones consideradas socialmente como problemáticas, no obstante, los indicadores sociales y la insatisfacción social demuestra que estas políticas públicas son inexistentes, insuficientes, no alcanzan los objetivos propuestos y en muchos casos fallan o están diseñadas incorrectamente. Desde hace algunos años ha venido con gran esfuerzo abriéndose paso un nuevo campo científico que puede contribuir de manera decisiva al diseño e implementación de políticas públicas desde un entorno turbulento. Este paradigma es el mundo de las ciencias de la complejidad que se ocupan de fenómenos, sistemas y comportamientos de complejidad creciente, hace propuestas tal como pensar en la enfermedad como un sistema adaptativo complejo, condición por la cual no puede enfrentarse desde el enfoque de una salud pública tradicional. La invitación aquí planteada es a abrir un debate en el que las diferentes formas de pensamiento formulen propuestas en pro de fortalecer los sistemas de información, la formación de personal en habilidades de comunicación, trabajo inter, trans y multidisciplinario, apoyo en la creación de redes de conocimiento, generación de nuevas perspectivas y construcciones en fin, todo el abanico posible que presentan las ciencias de la complejidad como una apuesta para desarrollar soluciones que resulten ser efectivas para la salud pública.

description: Complex networks have attracted a great deal of research interest in the last two decades since Watts & Strogatz, Barabási & Albert and Girvan & Newman published their highly-cited seminal papers on small-world networks, on scale-free networks and on the community structure of complex networks, respectively. These fundamental papers initiated a new era of research establishing an interdisciplinary field called network science. Due to the multidisciplinary nature of the field, a diverse but not divided network science community has emerged in the past 20 years. This paper honors the contributions of network science by exploring the evolution of this community as seen through the growing co-authorship network of network scientists (here the notion refers to a scholar with at least one paper citing at least one of the three aforementioned milestone papers). After investigating various characteristics of 29,528 network science papers, we construct the co-authorship network of 52,406 network scientists and we analyze its topology and dynamics. We shed light on the collaboration patterns of the last 20 years of network science by investigating numerous structural properties of the co-authorship network and by using enhanced data visualization techniques. We also identify the most central authors, the largest communities, investigate the spatiotemporal changes, and compare the properties of the network to scientometric indicators.

description: The pace and unpredictability of evolution are critically relevant in a variety of modern challenges: combating drug resistance in pathogens and cancer, understanding how species respond to environmental perturbations like climate change, and developing artificial selection approaches for agriculture. Great progress has been made in quantitative modeling of evolution using fitness landscapes, allowing a degree of prediction for future evolutionary histories. Yet fine-grained control of the speed and the distributions of these trajectories remains elusive. We propose an approach to achieve this using ideas originally developed in a completely different context: counterdiabatic driving to control the behavior of quantum states for applications like quantum computing and manipulating ultra-cold atoms. Implementing these ideas for the first time in a biological context, we show how a set of external control parameters (i.e. varying drug concentrations / types, temperature, nutrients) can guide the probability distribution of genotypes in a population along a specified path and time interval. This level of control, allowing empirical optimization of evolutionary speed and trajectories, has myriad potential applications, from enhancing adaptive therapies for diseases, to the development of thermotolerant crops in preparation for climate change, to accelerating bioengineering methods built on evolutionary models, like directed evolution of biomolecules.

description: Some countries in the Caribbean have initiated youth oriented projects to address their aging farming population while others are developing policies to encourage youth to pursue a career in food production. A study conducted among 109 students of agriculture (56% female:44% male) at the secondary level in St. Vincent and the Grenadines sought to determine students’ perceptions of the incentives and disincentives to pursuing a career in food production, the likelihood that they will engage in farming in the near future and their preferred areas of food production. A close ended, self reporting survey instrument was used to collect data. Results indicated that income generation, changing the nature of farming in SVG and studying agricultural science in school were the top ranked reasons for considering a future in agriculture. The highest ranked disincentives were lack of government support, the costs of starting up an enterprise and lack of local agricultural training opportunities. The majority of students (78%) indicated some likelihood to engage the sector in the near future. Strongest interest were shown for working in the Ministry of Agriculture, pursuing higher education in agriculture, and farming using new technologies such as “Greenhouses” and Agro-processing. The results suggest a generally favorable predisposition to farming by SVG youth. However, concerted efforts to put enabling policies and strategies in place to further encourage them are needed. The considerable interest shown in salaried jobs and higher education in the sector, while laudable, must be matched with a cadre of food production-oriented young persons.

description: We study theoretically fusion of the light proton-rich exotic nuclei $^{17}$F and $^8$B at near-barrier energies in order to investigate the possible role of breakup processes on their fusion cross sections. To this end, coupled channel calculations are performed considering the couplings to the breakup channels of these projectiles. In case of $^{17}$F, the coupling arising out of the inelastic excitation from the ground state to the bound excited state and its couplings to the continuum have also been taken into consideration. It is found that the inelastic excitation/breakup of $^{17}$F affect the fusion cross sections very nominally even for a heavy target like Pb. On the other hand, calculations for fusion of the one-proton halo nucleus $^8$B on a Pb target show a significant suppression of the complete fusion cross section above the Coulomb barrier. This is due to the larger breakup probability of $^8$B as compared to that of $^{17}$F. However, even for $^8$B, there is little change in the complete fusion cross sections as compared to the no-coupling case at sub-barrier energies.

description: We provide a comprehensive study of atomic Raman and Bragg diffraction when coupling to a pair of counterpropagating light gratings (double diffraction) or to a single one (single diffraction) and discuss the transition from one case to the other in a retroreflective geometry as the Doppler detuning changes. In contrast to single diffraction, double Raman loses its advantage of high diffraction efficiency for short pulses and has to be performed in a Bragg-type regime. Moreover, the structure of double diffraction leads to further limitations for broad momentum distributions on the efficiency of mirror pulses, making the use of (ultra) cold ensembles essential for high diffraction efficiency.

Subjects: Economics

description: This research investigates the impact of human capital development on the manufacturing sector in Nigeria. It spanned through the period 1982 through 2016. The data used for this work were sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria(CBN) statistical bulletin 2016 and the World Bank Development Indicators 2017. Adequate statistical measures(OLS) have been employed using a time-series analysis in the study. For objective two and three in this paper, one model was used to capture them and the variables of interest are government expenditure on education and government expenditure on health. The results revealed for the second and third objective of the research, that human capital development has a positive relationship with manufacturing output, though the two variables are not statistically significantly different from zero. This brings to limelight that for the manufacturing sector to achieve steady state level of output and satisfactory level of economic growth and development, there is need for human capital development to take place.

description: This paper investigates the impact of labour force composition on productivity in EU arable farming. We test the heterogeneity of family and hired labour for a set of eight EU member states. To this end, we estimate augmented production functions using FADN data for the years 2001-2008. The results reject the notion that hired labour is generally less productive than family workers. In fact, farms with a higher share of hired workers are more productive than pure family farms in countries traditionally characterised by family labour, namely France, West Germany and Poland. Here, an increase in reliance on hired labour or the shift of family labour to more productive tasks could raise productivity. This finding calls into question a main pillar of the received family farm theory. In about half the countries, there are no statistically different effects of both types of labour. For the United Kingdom, we find the classical case with family farms being more productive than those relying on hired labour. In this situation supervision by family members could increase productivity. As a side result, we find little evidence of non-constant technical returns to scale.
Angles are inherently neither length ratios nor dimensionless

description: The status of angles within The International System of Units (SI) has long been a source of controversy and confusion. We address one specific but crucial issue, putting the case that the idea of angles necessarily being length ratios, and hence dimensionless, is not valid. By making a clear distinction between the definition of a quantity and the process of making a measurement of that quantity, we show that the usual arguments for angles being length ratios are problematic. An appreciation of this point should clear away a major obstacle preventing a more proper treatment of the angle problem.

description: Quantum algorithms are well-suited to calculate estimates of the energy spectra for spin lattice systems. These algorithms are based on the efficient calculation of the discrete Fourier components of the density of states. The efficiency of these algorithms in calculating the free energy per spin of general spin lattices to bounded error is examined. We find that the number of Fourier components required to bound the error in the free energy due to the broadening of the density of states scales polynomially with the number of spins in the lattice. However, the precision with which the Fourier components must be calculated is found to be an exponential function of the system size.

description: This paper analyses the influencing factors of farmers’ use of price hedging instruments (PHIs) based upon a discrete choice experiment with German grain farmers. A mixed logit model is used to determine whether farmers’ choices of PHIs against cash sales are influenced by their price expectation, their risk attitude and their available storage capacities. The results show that farmers with a price expectation below the actual price level have a higher preference for using PHIs against cash sales in general and that the individual degree of risk aversion can have a significant impact on farmers’ choices of a specific PHI. A generally lower preference of farmers with available storage capacities for using PHIs as assumed in many theoretical contributions in the literature, however, cannot be confirmed.

description: We review the current status of theoretical study of non-leptonic two body B decays. There are two independent directions for this purpose. One is the so called QCD factorization approach (or BBNS approach), which is based on naive factorization approach. The other one is named perturbative QCD approach. We list the different ideas and applications of the two method, and make a comparison between the two.

description: In this paper, we study the contribution of the chiral vortical effect, in addition to that of the chiral magnetic effect, to the evolution of the hypermagnetic field and the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the symmetric phase of the early Universe in the temperature range 100GeV < T < 10TeV. We choose a fully helical Chern-Simons wave configuration for the velocity and the hypermagnetic vector potential fields. The latter makes the plasma force-free in the absence of viscosity. We show that the most pronounced effect of the chiral vorticity is the production and initial growth of the hypermagnetic field. In particular, we show that in the presence of a non-zero matter asymmetry, the hypermagnetic field can grow from zero initial value only in the presence of a non-zero vorticity field. Moreover, we show that larger initial growths not only result in larger maximum values of the hypermagnetic field, but also cause the saturation of the hypermagnetic field and the conversion of the lepton-baryon asymmetry to occur more quickly, i.e., at a higher temperature. We show that the damping of the vorticity due to the presence of viscosity, which typically occurs extremely rapidly, does not significantly affect the evolution.

description: Adipose tissue lipolysis occurs during the development of heart failure as a consequence of chronic adrenergic stimulation. However, the impact of enhanced adipose triacylglycerol hydrolysis mediated by adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) on cardiac function is unclear. To investigate the role of adipose tissue lipolysis during heart failure, we generated mice with tissue-specific deletion of ATGL (atATGL-KO). atATGL-KO mice were subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) to induce pressure-mediated cardiac failure. The cardiac mouse lipidome and the human plasma lipidome from healthy controls (n = 10) and patients with systolic heart failure (HFrEF, n = 13) were analyzed by MS-based shotgun lipidomics. TAC-induced increases in left ventricular mass (LVM) and diastolic LV inner diameter were significantly attenuated in atATGL-KO mice compared to wild type (wt) -mice. More importantly, atATGL-KO mice were protected against TAC-induced systolic LV failure. Perturbation of lipolysis in the adipose tissue of atATGL-KO mice resulted in the prevention of the major cardiac lipidome changes observed after TAC in wt-mice. Profound changes occurred in the lipid class of phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) in which multiple PE-species were markedly induced in failing wt-hearts, which was attenuated in atATGL-KO hearts. Moreover, selected heart failure-induced PE species in mouse hearts were also induced in plasma samples from patients with chronic heart failure. TAC-induced cardiac PE induction resulted in decreased PC/PE-species ratios associated with increased apoptotic marker expression in failing wt-hearts, a process absent in atATGL-KO hearts. Perturbation of adipose tissue lipolysis by ATGL-deficiency ameliorated pressure-induced heart failure and the potentially deleterious cardiac lipidome changes that accompany this pathological process, namely the induction of specific PE species. Non-cardiac ATGL-mediated modulation of the cardiac lipidome may play an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic heart failure.

description: Long-only-Indexfonds stehen seit geraumer Zeit unter Verdacht, für die Preisanstiege an landwirtschaftlichen Warenterminmärkten, insbesondere für Getreide, verantwortlich zu sein. Diese Arbeit untersucht anhand partieller Gleichgewichtskonzepte die langfristige Marktwirkung von Long-only-Indexfonds. Die Analyse zeigt, dass Long-only-Indexfonds keineswegs Preise treiben, sondern stabilisieren. Der Markteintritt von Long-only-Indexfonds verringert die Risikoprämie. Landwirte können sich zu geringeren Kosten am Warenterminmarkt absichern. Letzteres fördert die Lagerhaltung und schwächt so saisonale Preisschwankungen am Kassamarkt ab. Der Markteintritt von Long-only-Indexfonds ist somit auch im Interesse der Konsumenten. Lediglich Long-only-Indexfonds selbst profitieren nicht von einem weiteren Markteintritt von Long-only-Indexfonds. Ihre Rentabilität ist negativ korreliert mit der Anzahl der sich am Warenterminmarkt befindlichen Long-only-Indexfonds. Es sollte davon abgesehen werden, die Aktivität von Long-only-Indexfonds regulatorisch einzuschränken.
Kosterlitz-Thouless-like deconfinement mechanism in the 2+1 dimensional Abelian Higgs model

description: We point out that the permanent confinement in a compact 2+1-dimensional U(1) Abelian Higgs model is destroyed by matter fields in the fundamental representation. The deconfinement transition is Kosterlitz-Thouless like. The dual theory is shown to describe a three-dimensional gas of point charges with logarithmic interactions which arises from an anomalous dimension of the gauge field caused by critical matter field fluctuations. The theory is equivalent to a sine-Gordon-like theory in 2+1 dimensions with an anomalous gradient energy proportional to $k^3$. The Callan-Symanzik equation is used to demonstrate that this theory has a massless and a massive phase. The renormalization group equations for the fugacity $y(l)$ and stiffness parameter $K(l)$ of the theory show that the renormalization of $K(l)$ induces an anomalous scaling dimension $η_y$ of $y(l)$. The stiffness parameter of the theory has a universal jump at the transition determined by the dimensionality and $η_y$. As a byproduct of our analysis, we relate the critical coupling of the sine-Gordon-like theory to an {\it a priori} arbitrary constant that enters into the computation of critical exponents in the Abelian Higgs model at the charged infrared-stable fixed point of the theory, enabling a determination of this parameter. This facilitates the computation of the critical exponent $ν$ at the charged fixed point in excellent agreement with one-loop renormalization group calculations for the three-dimensional XY-model, thus confirming expectations based on duality transformations.

description: The problem of denoising a one-dimensional signal possessing varying degrees of smoothness is ubiquitous in time-domain astronomy and astronomical spectroscopy. For example, in the time domain, an astronomical object may exhibit a smoothly varying intensity that is occasionally interrupted by abrupt dips or spikes. Likewise, in the spectroscopic setting, a noiseless spectrum typically contains intervals of relative smoothness mixed with localized higher frequency components such as emission peaks and absorption lines. In this work, we present trend filtering, a modern nonparametric statistical tool that yields significant improvements in this broad problem space of denoising $spatially$ $heterogeneous$ signals. When the underlying signal is spatially heterogeneous, trend filtering is superior to any statistical estimator that is a linear combination of the observed data---including kernel smoothers, LOESS, smoothing splines, Gaussian process regression, and many other popular methods. Furthermore, the trend filtering estimate can be computed with practical and scalable efficiency via a specialized convex optimization algorithm, e.g. handling sample sizes of $n\gtrsim10^7$ within a few minutes. In a companion paper, we explicitly demonstrate the broad utility of trend filtering to observational astronomy by carrying out a diverse set of spectroscopic and time-domain analyses.

description: Noise that is capable of inducing the hearing loss (NIHL) has a strong impact on the inner ear structures and causes early and most obvious pathophysiological changes in the auditory periphery. Several studies indicated that intrinsic apoptotic cell death mechanisms are the key factors inducing cellular degeneration immediately after noise exposure and are maintained for days or even weeks. In addition, studies demonstrated several changes in the central auditory system following noise exposure, consistent with early apoptosis-related pathologies. To clarify the underlying mechanisms, the present study focused on the noise-induced gene and protein expression of the pro-apoptotic protease activating factor-1 (APAF1) and the anti-apoptotic B-cell lymphoma 2 related protein a1a (BCL2A1A) in the cochlear nucleus (CN), inferior colliculus (IC) and auditory cortex (AC) of the murine central auditory pathway. The expression of Bcl2a1a mRNA was upregulated immediately after trauma in all tissues investigated, whereas the protein levels were significantly reduced at least in the auditory brainstem. Conversely, acute noise has decreased the expression of Apaf1 gene along the auditory pathway. The changes in APAF1 protein level were not statistically significant. It is tempting to speculate that the acoustic overstimulation leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and induction of apoptosis by regulation of proapoptotic and antiapoptotic proteins. The inverse expression pattern on the mRNA level of both genes might reflect a protective response to decrease cellular damage. Our results indicate the immediate presence of intrinsic apoptosis following noise trauma. This, in turn, may significantly contribute to the development of central structural deficits. Auditory pathway-specific inhibition of intrinsic apoptosis could be a therapeutic approach for the treatment of acute (noise-induced) hearing loss to prevent irreversible neuronal injury in auditory brain structures and to avoid profound deficits in complex auditory processing.
