description: This deliverable describes the shared requirements, technical solutions, and methods for collecting clinical data at the AI-Mind clinical partner sites. For that purpose, we define protocols for using research devices, materials, and clinical data handling practises to be implemented at all prospective participant visits. The clinical data will be collected at five sites in four countries (Oslo University Hospital (OUS), Oslo, Norway; Helsinki University Hospital (HUH), Helsinki, Finland; Scientific Institute for Research, Hospitalization and Healthcare, San Raffaele Roma (IRCSS) and Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (UCSC), Rome, Italy; Complutense University of Madrid (UCM), Madrid, Spain). The scope of this deliverable spans from acquiring the EEG/MEG data, digital cognitive testing, blood samples, and textual data from questionnaires and neuropsychological testing (NPT), to managing the (pseudonymised) clinical data at the respective sites. These protocols apply to all the clinical partners; MEG protocols will be implemented only in UCM and HUH. The AI Mind project handles both prospective (to be collected) and retrospective data (acquired earlier for other clinical and scientific purposes and included in the data transfer agreements (DTA) between the clinical sites). The emphasis of this deliverable is on the handling prospective data, but it will also define the minimum common requirements for the data handling protocols of the retrospective EEG data at the respective sites. Harmonisation of retrospective data will be further discussed in Deliverable D2.3, where also the preprocessing protocols for all the clinical MEG/EEG data are defined.

description: The aim of the present study is to provide a picture for geopolitical globalization: the role of all world countries together with their contribution towards globalization is highlighted. In the context of the present study, every country owes its efficiency and therefore its contribution towards structuring the world by the position it holds in a complex global network. The location in which a country is positioned on the network is shown to provide a measure of its "contribution" and "importance". As a matter of fact, the visa status conditions between countries reflect their contribution towards geopolitical globalization. Based on the visa status of all countries, community detection reveals the existence of 4+1 main communities. The community constituted by the developed countries has the highest clustering coefficient equal to 0.9. In contrast, the community constituted by the old eastern European blocks, the middle eastern countries, and the old Soviet Union has the lowest clustering coefficient approximately equal to 0.65. PR China is the exceptional case. Thus, the picture of the globe issued in this study contributes towards understanding "how the world works".

description: Recently, the chiral superconductivity of the cosmic string in the axion model has gathered attention. The superconductive nature can alter the standard understanding of the cosmology of the axion model. For example, a string loop with a sizable superconducting current can become a stable configuration, which is called a Vorton. The superconductive nature can also affect the cosmological evolution of the string network. In this paper, we study the stability of the superconducting current in the string. We find the superconductivity is indeed stable for a straight string or infinitely small string core size, even if the carrier particles are unstable in the vacuum. However we also find that the carrier particle decays in a curved string in typical axion models, if the carrier particles are unstable in the vacuum. Accordingly, the lifetime of the Vorton is not far from that of the carrier particle in the vacuum.

description: This article generalizes object-oriented dynamic networks to the fuzzy case, which allows one to represent knowledge on objects and classes of objects that are fuzzy by nature and also to model their changes in time. Within the framework of the approach described, a mechanism is proposed that makes it possible to acquire new knowledge on the basis of basic knowledge and considerably differs from well-known methods used in existing models of knowledge representation. The approach is illustrated by an example of construction of a concrete fuzzy object-oriented dynamic network.

description: We propose a 3+1 Higgs Doublet Model based on the $Δ(27)$ family symmetry supplemented by several auxiliary cyclic symmetries leading to viable Yukawa textures for the Standard Model fermions, consistent with the observed pattern of fermion masses and mixings. The charged fermion mass hierarchy and the quark mixing pattern is generated by the spontaneous breaking of the discrete symmetries due to flavons that act as Froggatt-Nielsen fields. The tiny neutrino masses arise from a radiative seesaw mechanism at one loop level, thanks to a preserved $Z_2^{\left( 1\right)}$ discrete symmetry, which also leads to stable scalar and fermionic dark matter candidates. The leptonic sector features the predictive cobimaximal mixing pattern, consistent with the experimental data from neutrino oscillations. For the scenario of normal neutrino mass hierarchy, the model predicts an effective Majorana neutrino mass parameter in the range $3$~meV$\lesssim m_{ββ}\lesssim$ $18$ meV, which is within the declared range of sensitivity of modern experiments. The model predicts Flavour Changing Neutral Currents which constrain the model, for instance Kaon mixing and $μ\to e$ nuclear conversion processes, the latter which are found to be within the reach of the forthcoming experiments.

description: A remarkable feature of chaos in many-body quantum systems is the existence of a bound on the quantum Lyapunov exponent. An important question is to understand what is special about maximally chaotic systems which saturate this bound. Here we provide further evidence for the `hydrodynamic' origin of chaos in such systems, and discuss hallmarks of maximally chaotic systems. We first provide evidence that a hydrodynamic effective field theory of chaos we previously proposed should be understood as a theory of maximally chaotic systems. We then emphasize and make explicit a signature of maximal chaos which was only implicit in prior literature, namely the suppression of exponential growth in commutator squares of generic few-body operators. We provide a general argument for this suppression within our chaos effective field theory, and illustrate it using SYK models and holographic systems. We speculate that this suppression indicates that the nature of operator scrambling in maximally chaotic systems is fundamentally different to scrambling in non-maximally chaotic systems. We also discuss a simplest scenario for the existence of a maximally chaotic regime at sufficiently large distances even for non-maximally chaotic systems.

Summing over Geometries in String Theory

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We examine the question how string theory achieves a sum over bulk geometries with fixed asymptotic boundary conditions. We discuss this problem with the help of the tensionless string on $\mathcal{M}_3 \times \mathrm{S}^3 \times \mathbb{T}^4$ (with one unit of NS-NS flux) that was recently understood to be dual to the symmetric orbifold $\text{Sym}^N(\mathbb{T}^4)$. We strengthen the analysis of arXiv:2008.07533 and show that the perturbative string partition function around a fixed bulk background already includes a sum over semi-classical geometries and large stringy corrections can be interpreted as various semi-classical geometries. We argue in particular that the string partition function on a Euclidean wormhole geometry factorizes completely into factors associated to the two boundaries of spacetime. Central to this is the remarkable property of the moduli space integral of string theory to localize on covering spaces of the conformal boundary of $\mathcal{M}_3$. We also emphasize the fact that string perturbation theory computes the grand canonical partition function of the family of theories $\bigoplus_N\text{Sym}^N(\mathbb{T}^4)$. The boundary partition function is naturally expressed as a sum over winding worldsheets, each of which we interpret as a `stringy geometry'. We argue that the semi-classical bulk geometry can be understood as a condensate of such stringy geometries. We also briefly discuss the effect of ensemble averaging over the Narain moduli space of $\mathbb{T}^4$ and of deforming away from the orbifold by the marginal deformation.

description: This research investigates the effect of solution treatment on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of the Mg–5Zn–1.5Y alloy as a biodegradable biomaterial. Thermal analysis, optical and electron microscope images, as well as energy dispersive analysis and elemental analysis, were used to evaluate the microstructure and phases present in the pre- and post-heat treatment. To evaluate the corrosion behavior of cast and solved samples, a polarization test was performed in simulated body fluid (SBF), and the potential, current density and corrosion rate of each sample were calculated. The results indicate that the solution treatment at 415 °C temperature leads to the dissolution of the secondary phases I (Mg3Zn6Y) and W(Mg3Zn3Y2) present in the microstructure and the formation of a magnesium matrix supersaturated of alloying elements, and increasing the solution time reduces the volume fraction of these precipitations. These microstructural developments have resulted in a decrease in the formation of galvanic micro-piles between the matrix and intermetallic compounds present in the microstructure, leading to a decrease in the corrosion rate of the alloy from 10.5 mm/y in the cast sample to 1.87 mm/y in the dissolved sample after 50 h. Based on the results obtained, the main reason for this phenomenon can be attributed to the role of secondary phases present in the microstructure in the corrosion process.

description: Using a sample of dwarf irregular galaxies selected from the ALFALFA blind HI-survey and observed using the VIMOS IFU, we investigate the relationship between H$α$ emission and Balmer optical depth ($τ_{\text{b}}$). We find a positive correlation between H$α$ luminosity surface density and Balmer optical depth in 8 of 11 at $\geq$ 0.8$σ$ significance (6 of 11 at $\geq$ 1.0$σ$) galaxies. Our spaxels have physical scales ranging from 30 to 80 pc, demonstrating that the correlation between these two variables continues to hold down to spatial scales as low as 30 pc. Using the Spearman's rank correlation coefficient to test for correlation between $Σ_{\text{H}α}$ and $τ_{\text{b}}$ in all the galaxies combined, we find $ρ= 0.39$, indicating a positive correlation at 4$σ$ significance. Our low stellar-mass galaxy results are in agreement with observations of emission line regions in larger spiral galaxies, indicating that this relationship is independent of the size of the galaxy hosting the emission line region. The positive correlation between H$α$ luminosity and Balmer optical depth within spaxels is consistent with the hypothesis that young star-forming regions are surrounded by dusty birth-clouds.

description: We provide an analytical tripartite-study from the generalized $R$-matrix. It provides the upper bound of the maximum violation of Mermin's inequality. For a generic 2-qubit pure state, the concurrence or $R$-matrix characterizes the maximum violation of Bell's inequality. Therefore, people expect that the maximum violation should be proper to quantify Quantum Entanglement. The $R$-matrix gives the maximum violation of Bell's inequality. For a general 3-qubit state, we have five invariant entanglement quantities up to local unitary transformations. We show that the five invariant quantities describe the correlation in the generalized $R$-matrix. The violation of Mermin's inequality is not a proper diagnosis due to the non-monotonic behavior. We then classify 3-qubit quantum states. Each classification quantifies Quantum Entanglement by the total concurrence. In the end, we relate the experiment correlators to Quantum Entanglement.

description: We investigate the chiral phase transition in the soft-wall model of AdS/QCD at zero chemical potential for two-flavor and three-flavor cases, respectively. We show that there is no spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in the original soft-wall model. After detailed analysis, we find that in order to realize chiral symmetry breaking and restoration, both profiles for the scalar potential and the dilaton field are essential. The scalar potential determines the possible solution structure of the chiral condensate, except the mass term, it takes another quartic term for the two-flavor case, and for the three-flavor case, one has to take into account an extra cubic term due to the t'Hooft determinant interaction. The profile of the dilaton field reflects the gluodynamics, which is negative at a certain ultraviolet scale and approaches positive quadratic behavior at far infrared region. With this set-up, the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in the vacuum and its restoration at finite temperature can be realized perfectly. In the two-flavor case, it gives a second order chiral phase transition in the chiral limit, while the transition turns to be a crossover for any finite quark mass. In the case of three-flavor, the phase transition becomes a first order one in the chiral limit, while above sufficient large quark mass it turns to be a crossover again. This scenario agrees exactly with the current understanding on chiral phase transition from lattice QCD and other effective model studies.

description: The charge-density-wave (CDW) phase is a macroscopic quantum state consisting of a periodic modulation of the electronic charge density accompanied by a periodic distortion of the atomic lattice in quasi-1D or layered 2D metallic crystals. Several layered transition metal dichalcogenides, such as 1T-TaSe2, 1T-TaS2 and 1T-TiSe2, exhibit unusually high transition temperatures to different CDW symmetry-reducing phases. These transitions can be affected by environmental conditions, film thickness and applied electric bias. However, device applications of these intriguing systems at room temperature or their integration with other 2D materials have not been explored. Here we show that in 2D CDW 1T-TaS2, the abrupt change in the electrical conductivity and hysteresis at the transition point between nearly-commensurate and incommensurate charge-density-wave phases can be used for constructing an oscillator that operates at room temperature. The hexagonal boron nitride was capped on 1T-TaS2 thin film to provide protection from oxidation, and an integrated graphene transistor provides a voltage tunable, matched, low-resistance load enabling precise voltage control of the oscillator frequency. The integration of these three disparate two-dimensional materials, in a way that exploits the unique properties of each, yields a simple, miniaturized, voltage-controlled oscillator device. Theoretical considerations suggest that the upper limit of oscillation frequency to be in the THz regime.

description: We present first principles study of thermoelectric transport properties of sandwiched heterostructure of Graphene (G)/hexagonal Boron Nitride (BN)/G, based on Boltzmann transport theory for band electrons using the bandstructure calculated from the Density Functional Theory (DFT) based plane-wave method. Calculations were carried out for three, four and five BN layers sandwiched between Graphene layers with three different arrangements to obtain the Seebeck coefficient and Power factor in $T\sim 25-400$K range. Moreover, using Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations with very large simulation cell we obtained the thermal conductance ($K$) of these heterostructures and obtained finally the Figure-of-Merit ($ZT$). These results are in agreement with recently reported experimental measurements.

description: We have studied the temperature dependence of the upper critical fields, $μ_{0}H_{c2}$, of K$_{x}$Fe$_{2-y}$Se$_{2-z}$S$_{z}$ single crystals up to 60 T. The $μ_{0}H_{c2}$ for $H\parallel ab$ and $H\parallel c$ decrease with increasing sulfur content. The detailed analysis using Werthamer-Helfand-Hohenberg (WHH) theory including the Pauli spin-paramagnetic effect shows that $μ_{0}H_{c2}$ for $H\parallel ab$ is dominated by the spin-paramagnetic effect, which diminishes with higher S content, whereas $μ_{0}H_{c2}$ for $H\parallel c$ shows a linear temperature dependence with an upturn at high fields. The latter observation can be ascribed to multiband effects that become weaker for higher S content. This results in an enhanced anisotropy of $μ_{0}H_{c2}$ for high S content due to the different trends of the spin-paramagnetic and multiband effect for $H\parallel ab$ and $H\parallel c$, respectively.

description: In recent years, massive amounts of data have been generated from various types of devices or services. For these data, update-intensive workloads where the data update their status periodically and continuously are common. The Log-Structured-Merge (LSM, for short) is a widely-used indexing technique in various systems, where index structures buffer insert operations into the memory layer and flush them into disk when the data size in memory exceeds a threshold. Despite its noble ability to handle write-intensive (i.e., insert-intensive) workloads, LSM suffers from degraded query performance due to its inefficiency on index maintenance of secondary keys to handle update-intensive workloads.This dissertation focuses on the efficient support of update-intensive workloads for LSM-based indexes. First, the focus is on the optimization of LSM secondary-key indexes and their support for update-intensive workloads. A mechanism to enable the LSM R-tree to handle update-intensive workloads efficiently is introduced. The new LSM indexing structure is termed the LSM RUM-tree, an LSM R-tree with Update Memo. The key insights are to reduce the maintenance cost of the LSM R-tree by leveraging an additional in-memory memo structure to control the size of the memo to fit in memory. In the experiments, the LSM RUM-tree achieves up to 9.6x speedup on update operations and up to 2400x speedup on query operations.Second, the focus is to offer several significant advancements in the context of the LSM RUM-tree. We provide an extended examination of LSM-aware Update Memo (UM) cleaning strategies, elucidating how effectively each strategy reduces UM size and contributes to performance enhancements. Moreover, in recognition of the imperative need to facilitate concurrent activities within the LSM RUM-Tree, particularly in multi-threaded/multi-core environments, we introduce a pivotal feature of concurrency control for the update memo. The novel atomic operation known as Compare and If Less than Swap (CILS) is introduced to enable seamless concurrent operations on the Update Memo. Experimental results attest to a notable 4.5x improvement in the speed of concurrent update operations when compared to existing and baseline implementations.Finally, we present a novel technique designed to improve query processing performance and optimize storage management in any secondary LSM tree. Our proposed approach introduces a new framework and mechanisms aimed at addressing the specific challenges associated with secondary indexing in the structure of the LSM tree, especially in the context of secondary LSM B+-tree (LSM BUM-tree). Experimental results show that the LSM BUM-tree achieves up to 5.1x speedup on update-intensive workloads and 107x speedup on update and query mixed workloads over existing LSM B+-tree implementations.

description: Assay methods for measuring 238U, 232Th, and 210Pb concentrations in refined lead are presented. The 238U and 232Th concentrations are determined using isotope dilution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ID-ICP-MS) after anion exchange column separation of dissolved lead samples. The 210Pb concentration is inferred through α-spectroscopy of a daughter isotope, 210Po, after chemical precipitation separation on dissolved lead samples. Subsequent to the 210Po α-spectroscopy assay, a method for evaluating 210Pb concentrations in solid lead samples was developed via measurement of bremsstrahlung radiation from \b{eta}-decay of a daughter isotope, 210Bi, by employing a 14-crystal array of high purity germanium (HPGe) detectors. Ten sources of refined lead were assayed. The 238U concentrations were <34 microBq/kg and the 232Th concentrations ranged <0.6-15 microBq/kg, as determined by the ICP-MS assay method. The 210Pb concentrations ranged from ~0.1-75 Bq/kg, as inferred by the 210Po α-spectroscopy assay method.

description: We derive the 3D N=1 superpotential for the closed string sector of type IIB supergravity on toroidal O5 orientifolds with co-calibrated G2 structure and RR background flux. We find that such compactifications can provide full closed string moduli stabilization on supersymmetric AdS$_3$ vacua, and once we include brane-supersymmetry-breaking we also find indication for the existence of classical 3D de Sitter solutions. The latter however are rather difficult to reconcile with the shape moduli stabilization and flux quantization. We also discuss the possibility of achieving scale separation in AdS$_3$ and dS$_3$ vacua, but such effects seems to be hindered by the geometric flux quantization.

description: Cyber threats exploiting human behaviour increasingly contributed to cyber security risk in the past years. Cyber security management and controls are often drawn towards the technical cyber security aspects, behavioural cyber risk aspects are sometimes overlooked.
 Many cyber security frameworks and standards provide in limited practical guidance regarding the identification of cyber risk behaviour of e.g. employees. Reasons for that are, that many risk assessments frameworks are context agnostic and not aware of the complex organizational environment, and the diversity of the potential behavioural cyber risks that can occur. In general it is difficult to identify, track and measure the variety of potentially harmful cyber behaviour of employees and the many complex psychological aspects influencing the cooperation and engagement of employees related to cyber risk reduction in an organization. Many risk assessment standards do recommend to start with a "context establishment" phase to identify the organization and environment specific context, and cyber risk behaviour should be covered as well in this phase. Aim for this research is to develop a behavioural cyber risk context assessments template that supports the risk assessor in the identification of behavioural cyber risks.

description: In celestial conformal field theory, gluons are represented by primary fields with dimensions $Δ=1+iλ$, $λ\in\mathbb{R}$ and spin $J=\pm 1$, in the adjoint representation of the gauge group. All two- and three-point correlation functions of these fields are zero as a consequence of four-dimensional kinematic constraints. Four-point correlation functions contain delta-function singularities enforcing planarity of four-particle scattering events. We relax these constraints by taking a shadow transform of one field and perform conformal block decomposition of the corresponding correlators. We compute the conformal block coefficients. When decomposed in channels that are "compatible" in two and four dimensions, such four-point correlators contain conformal blocks of primary fields with dimensions $Δ=2+M+iλ$, where $M\ge 0$ is an integer, with integer spin $J=-M,-M+2,\dots,M-2,M$. They appear in all gauge group representations obtained from a tensor product of two adjoint representations. When decomposed in incompatible channels, they also contain primary fields with continuous complex spin, but with positive integer dimensions.

description: The outer stellar halos of galaxies contain vital information about the formation history of galaxies, since the relaxation timescales in the outskirts are long enough to keep the memory, while the information about individual formation events in the central parts has long been lost due to mixing, star formation and relaxation. To unveil some of the information encoded in these faint outer halo regions, we study the stellar outskirts of galaxies selected from a fully hydrodynamical high resolution cosmological simulation, called Magneticum. We find that the density profiles of the outer stellar halos of galaxies over a broad mass range can be well described by an Einasto profile. For a fixed total mass range, the free parameters of the Einasto fits are closely correlated. Galaxies which had more (dry) merger events tend to have lesser curved outer stellar halos, however, we find no indication that the amount of curvature is correlated with galaxy morphology. The Einasto-like shape of the outer stellar halo densities can also explain the observed differences between the Milky Way and Andromeda outer stellar halos.
