description: Postoperative pain management is vital for a variety of reasons, extending past the physiological implications of pain, but also having an impact on financial, emotional, and psychological well-being. Managing patient pain is one of the biggest challenges and concerns in the perioperative setting. Reports show that anxiety and fear surrounding the anticipation of pain cause some patients to postpone necessary surgeries (Li, et al., 2019). Even after surgery, the undertreatment of acute pain results in 10% of patients developing chronic postoperative pain (Glare, et al. 2019). The implications of undertreated postoperative pain are associated with delayed recovery, prevention of return to normal function, anxiety, depression, decreased functionality, and an increased risk of opioid misuse (Glare, et al., 2019).  Research has shown that the use of opioids and analgesic medications as the only method of postoperative pain management falls short of effectively managing all pain symptoms, leaving lasting pain and the potential adverse effects of opioid use ranging from respiratory sedation to addiction (Lee, 2018). Evidence shows that using complementary therapies such as music therapy, distraction, aromatherapy, and music therapy with education started preoperatively and opioid analgesics optimize pain management in postoperative patients. The focus on and implementation of multimodal approaches to management including complementary therapies, education, and opioids has proven to improve patient outcomes (Lee, 2018). Currently, research indicates that the use of complementary therapies, along with standard of practice, in managing postoperative pain has the potential to decrease patient pain perception, opioid consumption, and length of hospital stay, all while improving overall patient outcomes.

description: Invariant cross sections of intermediate mass fragments in peripheral collisions of Au on Au at incident energies between 40 and 150 AMeV have been measured with the 4-pi multi-detector INDRA. The maximum of the fragment production is located near mid-rapidity at the lower energies and moves gradually towards the projectile and target rapidities as the energy is increased. Schematic calculations within an extended Goldhaber model suggest that the observed cross-section distributions and their evolution with energy are predominantly the result of the clustering requirement for the emerging fragments and of their Coulomb repulsion from the projectile and target residues. The quantitative comparison with transverse energy spectra and fragment charge distributions emphasizes the role of hard scattered nucleons in the fragmentation process.

description: In this paper, we give novel certificates for triangular equivalence and rank profiles. These certificates enable somebody to verify the row or column rank profiles or the whole rank profile matrix faster than recomputing them, with a negligible overall overhead. We first provide quadratic time and space non-interactive certificates saving the logarithmic factors of previously known ones. Then we propose interactive certificates for the same problems whose Monte Carlo verification complexity requires a small constant number of matrix-vector multiplications, a linear space, and a linear number of extra field operations , with a linear number of interactions. As an application we also give an interactive protocol, certifying the determinant or the signature of dense matrices, faster for the Prover than the best previously known one. Finally we give linear space and constant round certificates for the row or column rank profiles.

description: With a great vocation for internationalization, Pirelli begins expanding in Argentina in the final years of the nineteenth century. The first step is the establishment of a commercial chain followed by the construction of a factory started in 1910. Essential for the growth of the enterprise is the strong bond to Italian culture that characterizes Alberto Pirelli's proposals for the Argentine soil, from the international exhibition in Buenos Aires in 1910 to the launch of Pirelli within the Compañía Italo-Argentina de Electricidad, together with other major Italian companies, the following year. The rise of Pirelli will continue, without interruptions, up to the present day.

description: We experimentally investigate spectral statistics in Anderson localization in two-dimensional amorphous disordered media. Intensity distributions captured over an ultrabroad wavelength range of $\sim 600$~nm and averaged over numerous configurations provided the Ioffe-Regel parameter to be $\sim2.5$ over the investigated wavelength range. The spectra of the disordered structures provided access to several quasimodes, whose widths and separations allowed to directly estimate the optical Thouless conductance $g_{Th}$, consistently observed to be below unity. The probability distribution of $g_{Th}$ was measured to be a log-normal. Despite being in the Anderson localization regime, the spacings of energy levels of the system was seen to follow a near Wigner-Dyson function. Theoretical calculations based on the tight-binding model, modified to include coupling to a bath, yielded results that were in excellent agreement with experiments. From the model, the level-spacing behavior was attributed to the degree of localization obtained in the optical disordered system.

description: The paper clarifies the link between changes in risk aversion and the effect on the consumption discount rate. In a general framework that can cope with various forms of uncertainty, it is shown that the response of the consumption discount rate to a change in risk aversion depends on some fundamental properties of the considered uncertainties. The application of this general result to specific forms of uncertainty extends existing results to more general forms of risk and yields a new result on preference uncertainty.

description: The effect of the angular momentum density of a gravitational source on the times of flight of light rays in an interferometer is analyzed. The calculation is made imagining that the interferometer is at the equator of the gravity source and, as long as possible, the metric, provided it is stationary and axisymmetric, is not approximated. Finally, in order to evaluate the size of the effect in the case of the Earth a weak field approximation is introduced. For laboratory scales and non-geodesic paths the correction turns out to be comparable with the sensitivity expected in gravitational waves interferometric detectors, whereas it drops under the threshold of detectability when using free (geodesic) light rays.

Some Mathematical And Numerical Questions Connected With First And Second Order Time Dependent Systems Of Partial Differential Equations

description: There is a tendency to write the equations of general relativity as a first order symmetric system of time dependent partial differential equations. However, for numerical reasons, it might be advantageous to use a second order formulation like one obtained from the ADM equations. Unfortunately, the type of the ADM equations is not well understood and therefore we shall discuss, in the next section, the concept of wellposedness. We have to distinguish between weakly and strongly hyperbolic systems. Strongly hyperbolic systems are well behaved even if we add lower order terms. In contrast; for every weakly hyperbolic system we can find lower order terms which make the problem totally illposed. Thus, for weakly hyperbolic systems, there is only a restricted class of lower order perturbations which do not destroy the wellposedness. To identify that class can be very difficult, especially for nonlinear perturbations. In Section 3 we will show that the ADM equations, linearized around flat with constant lapse function and shift vector, are only weakly hyperbolic. However, we can use the trace of the metric as a lapse function to make the equations into a strongly second order hyperbolic system. Using simple models we shall, in section 4, demonstrate that approximations of second order equations have better accuracy properties than the corresponding approximations of first order equations. Also, we avoid spurious waves which travel against the characteristic direction. In the last section we discuss some difficulties connected with the preservation of constraints.

description: We study a non-Riemannian modification of 5-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory. In our proposal the Riemannian structure of the five-dimensional manifold is replaced by a Weyl-integrable one. In this context a 4-dimensional Poincar$\grave{e}$ invariant solution is studied. Spacetime structures with thick smooth branes separated in the extra dimension arise. We focus our attention, mainly, in a case where the massless graviton is located in one of the thick branes at the origin, meanwhile the matter degrees of freedom are confined to the other brane. Due to the small overlap of the graviton's wave-function with the second thick brane, the model accounts for a resolution of the mass hierarchy problem a la Randall-Sundrum. Although, initially, no assumptions are made about the topology of the extra dimension, the solution found yields an extra space that is effectivelly compact and respects $Z_2$ symmetry. Unlike some other models with branes, a preliminary study (not including the effect of scalar perturbations) shows that the spectrum of massive Kaluza-Klein states is quantized and free of tachyonic modes.

description: Exclusive measurements of the p p -> p p pi+ pi- reaction have been carried out at Tp = 775 MeV at CELSIUS using the PROMICE/WASA setup. Together with data obtained at lower energy they point to a dominance of the Roper excitation in this process. From the observed interference of its decay routes N* -> N sigma and N* -> Delta pi -> N sigma their energy-dependent relative branching ratio is determined.

description: This paper presents a low noise amplifier for large arrays of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) operated in cryogenic environments, especially liquid argon (87 K) and liquid nitrogen (77 K). The goal is for one amplifier to read out a total photosensitive surface of tens of cm$^2$ while retaining the capability to resolve single photoelectron signals. Due to the large capacitance of SiPMs, typically a few nF per cm$^2$, the main contributor to noise is the series (voltage) component. A silicon-germanium heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) was selected as the input device of the cryogenic amplifier, followed by a fully differential operational amplifier, operated in an unconventional feedback configuration. The input referred voltage noise of the circuit at 77 K is just below 0.4 nV/$\surd$Hz white (above 100 kHz) and 1 nV/$\surd$Hz at 10 kHz. The value of the base spreading resistance of the HBT at 77 K was determined from noise measurements at different bias currents. Power consumption of the full circuit is about 2.5 mW. The design gives the flexibility to optimally compensate the feedback loop for different values of the input capacitance, and obtain a gain-bandwidth product in the GHz range. The signal-to-noise ratio obtained in reading out SiPMs is discussed for the case of a 300 kHz low pass filter and compared with the upper limit that would derive from applying optimum filtering algorithms.

description: In a context of laissez-faire, the propositions established in this paper shed light on the evolution of the problem of greenhouse gas (GHG) accumulation in the atmosphere for each type of strategic behaviour resulting from countries’ interconnection on global markets. In a framework of strong economic interdependencies, they show the potential consequences of the free trade arrangements on the environment and question the idea that free trade liberalisation should necessarily lead to an increase in countries’ welfare. This paper provides an exhaustive typology of countries’ strategic behaviours and a strong static comparative analysis with regard to the exogenous parameters of the model. Whereas some assumptions tend to be less relevant from an environmental point of view; others that are very relevant have not yet been considered in the literature. Using lattice theoretic notions, this paper generalizes the existing results of the literature and determines new equilibria not yet exploited. It thus extends the current framework of the traditional public economic theory dealing with public goods.
Non-linear statistics of primordial black holes from gaussian curvature perturbations

description: We develop the non-linear statistics of primordial black holes generated by a gaussian spectrum of primordial curvature perturbations. This is done by employing the compaction function as the main statistical variable under the constraints that: a) the over-density has a high peak at a point $\vec{x}_0$, b) the compaction function has a maximum at a smoothing scale $R$, and finally, c) the compaction function amplitude at its maximum is higher than the threshold necessary to trigger a gravitational collapse into a black hole of the initial over-density. Our calculation allows for the fact that the patches which are destined to form PBHs may have a variety of profile shapes and sizes. The predicted PBH abundances depend on the power spectrum of primordial fluctuations. For a very peaked power spectrum, our non-linear statistics, the one based on the linear over-density and the one based on the use of curvature perturbations, all predict a narrow distribution of PBH masses and comparable abundance. For broader power spectra the linear over-density statistics over-estimate the abundance of primordial black holes while the curvature-based approach under-estimates it. Additionally, for very large smoothing scales, the abundance is no longer dominated by the contribution of a mean over-density but rather by the whole statistical realisations of it.

description: Existing methods on visual emotion analysis mainly focus on coarse-grained emotion classification, i.e. assigning an image with a dominant discrete emotion category. However, these methods cannot well reflect the complexity and subtlety of emotions. In this paper, we study the fine-grained regression problem of visual emotions based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Specifically, we develop a Polarity-consistent Deep Attention Network (PDANet), a novel network architecture that integrates attention into a CNN with an emotion polarity constraint. First, we propose to incorporate both spatial and channel-wise attentions into a CNN for visual emotion regression, which jointly considers the local spatial connectivity patterns along each channel and the interdependency between different channels. Second, we design a novel regression loss, i.e. polarity-consistent regression (PCR) loss, based on the weakly supervised emotion polarity to guide the attention generation. By optimizing the PCR loss, PDANet can generate a polarity preserved attention map and thus improve the emotion regression performance. Extensive experiments are conducted on the IAPS, NAPS, and EMOTIC datasets, and the results demonstrate that the proposed PDANet outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches by a large margin for fine-grained visual emotion regression.

description: The transport properties of organic light-emitting diodes in which the emissive layer is composed of conjugated polymers in the liquid-crystalline phase have been investigated. We have performed simulations of the current transient response to an illumination pulse via the Monte Carlo approach, and from the transit times we have extracted the mobility of the charge carriers as a function of both the electric field and the temperature. The transport properties of such films are different from their disordered counterparts, with charge carrier mobilities exhibiting only a weak dependence on both the electric field and temperature. We show that for spatially ordered polymer films, this weak dependence arises for thermal energy being comparable to the energetic disorder, due to the combined effect of the electrostatic and thermal energies. The inclusion of spatial disorder, on the other hand, does not alter the qualitative behaviour of the mobility, but results in decreasing its absolute value.

description: Pierce's disease caused by the bacteria Xylella fastidiosa affects several crops including grapevine. Regarding bibliographic references, several molecular markers associated with the PdR1 gene for resistance to X. fastidiosa have been described in the specie Vitis arizonica. Six microsatellite markers (Short Sequence Repeats, SSR) flanking the PdR1 gene were selected for evaluation in a large set of grapevine varieties from different national sources and compared with the tolerant variety. The plant material selected for the study includes American, vinifera and wild species no tested so far. SSRs analysis showed that allelic patterns obtained between presumably susceptible varieties and the tolerant V. arizonica variety differed. Subsequent principal component analysis (PCA) showed clusters defined at the species level but not at the varietal level. It is also observed that the V. arizonica variety tested shows an allelic pattern of heterozygosity similar to the resistant variety described in the literature. Knowing the susceptibility of the vinifera, we corroborate this trend in new varieties relevant to wine growing in the Basque Country as well as for other known materials. This study will be complemented with the evaluation of the varietal response to infection at phenotypic and molecular level.

description: In this paper we investigate the role of poultry in households’ livelihood portfolios, and the livelihood impacts of supply and demand shocks that may be caused by avian flu outbreaks and scares. We focus on four sub-Saharan African countries that represent a spectrum of disease status and spread. By using nationally representative data and econometric methods, we profile the characteristics of households that are most likely to keep poultry and to be engaged in intensive poultry production, and estimate the ex-ante livelihood impacts of avian flu shocks. The results are expected to aid in the design of targeted avian flu control policies.

description: We have studied classical and quantum solutions of 2+1 dimensional Einstein gravity theory. Quantum theory is defined through the local conserved angular momentum and mass operators in the case of spherically symmetric space-time. The de Broglie-Bohm interpretation is applied for the wave function and we derive the differential equations for metrics. Metrics including quantum effect are obtained in solving these equations and we compare them with classical metrics. Especially the quantum effect on the closed de Sitter universe is evaluated quantitatively.

description: Earlier work on machine learning for automated reasoning mostly relied on simple, syntactic features combined with sophisticated learning techniques. Using ideas adopted in the software verification community, we propose the investigation of more complex, structural features to learn from. These may be exploited to either learn beneficial strategies for tools, or build a portfolio solver that chooses the most suitable tool for a given problem. We present some ideas for features of term rewrite systems and theorem proving problems.

description: As some of the only Lyman continuum (LyC) emitters at z~0, Green Pea (GP) galaxies are possible analogs of the sources that reionized the universe. We present HST COS spectra of 13 of the most highly ionized GPs, with [O III]/[O II]=6-35, and investigate correlations between Ly-alpha, galaxy properties, and low-ionization UV lines. Galaxies with high [O III]/[O II] have higher H-alpha equivalent widths (EWs), and high intrinsic Ly-alpha production may explain the prevalence of high Ly-alpha EWs among GPs. While Ly-alpha escape fraction is closely linked to low gas covering fractions, implying a clumpy gas geometry, narrow Ly-alpha velocity peak separation (delta_v,LyA) correlates with the ionization state, suggesting a density-bounded geometry. We therefore suggest that delta_v,LyA may trace the residual transparency of low-column-density pathways. Metallicity is associated with both [O III]/[O II] and delta_v,LyA. This trend may result from catastrophic cooling around low-metallicity star clusters, which generates a compact geometry of dense clouds within a low-density inter-clump medium. We find that the relative strength of low-ionization UV emission to absorption correlates with Ly-alpha emission strength and is related to Ly-alpha profile shape. However, as expected for optically thin objects, the GPs with the lowest delta_v,LyA show both weak low-ionization emission and weak absorption. The strengths of the low-ionization absorption and emission lines in a stacked spectrum do not correspond to any individual spectrum. Galaxies with high [O III]/[O II] contain a high fraction of LyC emitter candidates, but [O III]/[O II] alone is an insufficient diagnostic of LyC escape.

Fresh inflation and decoherence of super Hubble fluctuations

description: I study a stochastic approach to the recently introduced fresh inflation model for super Hubble scales. I find that the state loses its coherence at the end of the fresh inflationary period as a consequence of the damping of the interference function in the reduced density matrix. This fact should be a consequence of a) the relative evolutions of both the scale factor and the horizon and b) the additional thermal and dissipative effects. This implies a relevant difference with respect to supercooled inflationary scenarios which require a very rapid expansion of the scale factor to give the decoherence of super Hubble fluctuations.

description: Microorganisms colonizing internal tissues of insects are known important players in the insect’s reproduction, nutrition, and fitness. Thus, a better knowledge and characterization of this microbial community can lead to their exploitation in the management of insect populations. Philaenus spumarius has been of interest in the recent years due to its confirmed ability of vectoring the plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa. In this work the microbial community of different organs (head, abdomen, and genitalia) of 41 P. spumarius was assessed by culturing methods. Overall, 86 isolates classified in 51 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) (41 bacteria and 10 fungi) were obtained, being found 2 OTUs on average per insect. The most abundant genera were Curtobacterium (within bacteria) and Cladosporium (within fungi). The abdomen has the highest number of microbial isolates and fungal diversity with about 0.32 OTUs per sample, while genitalia harbored the highest bacterial diversity with about 0.68 OTUs per sample. The bacterial isolates able to growth in artificial medium were selected, and their influence on the insect cycle and reproduction were assessed using an insect model. The observed effects on insects were variable depending on the bacterial isolates. Some bacteria demonstrated ability to increase insect population while other bacterial isolates displayed a negative effect by decreasing insect reproduction or by causing insect premature death. Although preliminary, these results are very promising for the management of P. spumarius population and, consequently, for the transmission of X. fastidiosa.
