Subjects: subject: 620 Engineering & allied operations

description: The operating conditions of inland cruise vessels include small water depths, which in combination with typically high block coefficients lead to rise of parasitic vibration in the ship stern. This effect impairs the habitability and thus has to be studied so as to propose some measures of its suppression. In the present work the CFD analysis of the flow at the stern of a cruise vessel was conducted using scale-resolving simulation. Influence of different factors on the statistics of the velocity field, propeller forces, pressure oscillations and cavitation inception regions was studied.

description: Stabilizer circuits arise in almost every area of quantum computation and communication, so there is interest in studying them from an information-theoretic perspective, i.e. as quantum channels. We consider several natural approaches to what can be called a Clifford channel: the channel that can be realised by a stabilizer circuit without classical control, the channel that sends pure stabilizer states to mixed stabilizer states, the channel with stabilizer Choi state, the channel whose Stinespring dilation can have a Clifford unitary. We show the equivalence of these definitions. Up to unitary encoding and decoding maps any Clifford channel is a product of stabilizer state preparations, qubit discardings, identity channels and full dephasing channels. This simple structure allows to compute information capacities of such channels.

Learning from La Vara: Shaping Sephardic Identity in New York City after the Second Diaspora
Creators: name: Minno, Kristen M.
Publisher: name: Figshare
Year: 2018
Subjects: History

description: In New York City, the Sephardic immigrant community had established a strong foothold by the 1930s. However, the children of these immigrants were not learning traditions of their old homelands, or of centuries-old aspects of Sephardic culture. In response to this situation, Albert Levy, editor of the Sephardic newspaper La Vara, recognized that he and his paper could help to build bridges between the first generation immigrants from the Second Diaspora and their American children. Thus, on August 31, 1934, Levy published the first English section page in La Vara, which had previously been printed exclusively in the Ladino language in Hebrew characters. The main goal of this page was to reach out to Sephardic youth who were increasingly primary English speakers. This strategic move to English succeeded in creating an open arena for Sephardic youth to gain access to Jewish, and more importantly Sephardic, issues. These issues led to the ultimate formation of their unique identity, which centered on access to education; the lack of unity among Jews in New York; concerns about anti-Semitism; concerns about nationalism; an interest in strong historical ties to other world Jewish communities; and cultivating Jewish-American identity as well as connections to the Hispanic community in the metropolitan region. This paper explores the complicated question of the identity of Sephardic American Jews based on the issues raised by La Vara, and discusses how and why Sephardic identity changed over time.

title: A Pipelined Architecture for Real Time Correction of Barrel Distortion in Wide-Angle Camera Images
Creators: name: Ngo, Hau Trung
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University
publisherIdentifier: https://ror.org/04zjtrb98
publisherIdentifierScheme: ROR
Year: 2003

description: Images captured by wide-angle cameras show barrel type spatial distortion due to wide-angle configuration of the camera lens where image regions farther from the center are compressed in a nonlinear fashion. The barrel distortion correction technique based on least squares estimation attempts to correct a distorted image by expanding it nonlinearly so that straight lines in the object space remain straight in the image space. The intensity value of a pixel in the expanded image is calculated by back mapping its position to the corresponding position in the distorted image and performing linear interpolation on the neighboring pixels. Distorted images are analyzed to calculate the expansion coefficients and back mapping coefficients of the forward-mapping and the back-mapping polynomials in the distortion correction algorithm. These values are unique for each camera.

Demands for faster correction of distorted images in various real time applications lead to the development of a dedicated hardware architecture that can provide a high throughput rate. An absolute pipelined architecture is designed to correct barrel distortion in images by partitioning the distortion correction algorithm into four main modules. The architecture includes a CORDIC based rectangular to polar coordinate transformation module, a back mapping module for nonlinear transformation of corrected image space to distorted image space, a CORDIC based polar to rectangular coordinate transformation module, and a linear interpolation module to calculate the intensity of a pixel in the corrected image space. The system parameters include the expanded/corrected image size„ distorted image size, the back mapping coefficients, distortion center and the center of the corrected image. The hardware design is suitable for correcting 8-bit images of size up to four-million pixels. It can sustain a high throughput rate of 30 frames per second. The pipelined architecture design will facilitate the use of dedicated hardware that can be mounted along with the camera unit.

description: Cryogenic scanning tunneling microscopy was employed in combination with density-functional theory calculations to explore quantum dots made of In adatoms on the InAs(110) surface. Each adatom adsorbs at a surface site coordinated by one cation and two anions, and transfers one electron to the substrate, creating an attractive quantum well for electrons in surface states. We used the scanning-probe tip to assemble the positively charged adatoms into precisely defined quantum dots exhibiting a bound state roughly 0.1 eV below the Fermi level at an intrinsic linewidth of only ~4 meV, as revealed by scanning tunneling spectroscopy. For quantum-dot dimers, we observed the emergence of a bonding and an antibonding state with even and odd wave-function character, respectively, demonstrating the capability to engineer quasi-molecular electronic states. InAs(110) constitutes a promising platform in this respect because highly perfect surfaces can be readily prepared by cleavage and charged adatoms can be generated in-situ by the scanning-probe tip.

description: Using a lab experiment, we investigate the real-life performance of envy-free and proportional cake-cutting procedures with respect to fairness and preference manipulation. We find that envy-free procedures, in particular Selfridge-Conway, are fairer and also are perceived as fairer than their proportional counterparts, despite the fact that agents very often manipulate them. Our results support the practical use of the celebrated Selfridge-Conway procedure, and more generally, of envy-free cake-cutting mechanisms. We also find that subjects learn their opponents' preferences after repeated interaction and use this knowledge to improve their allocated share of the cake. Learning reduces truth-telling behavior, but also reduces envy.

description: We study classification of interacting fermionic symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases with both rotation symmetry and Abelian internal symmetries in one, two, and three dimensions. By working out this classification, on the one hand, we demonstrate the recently proposed correspondence principle between crystalline topological phases and those with internal symmetries through explicit block-state constructions. We find that for the precise correspondence to hold it is necessary to change the central extension structure of the symmetry group by the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ fermion parity. On the other hand, we uncover new classes of intrinsically fermionic SPT phases that are only enabled by interactions, both in 2D and 3D with four-fold rotation. Moreover, several new instances of Lieb-Schultz-Mattis-type theorems for Majorana-type fermionic SPTs are obtained and we discuss their interpretations from the perspective of bulk-boundary correspondence.

description: Convenient palladium-catalyzed syntheses of polycyclic nitrogen heterocycles from ortho-dihaloarenes were developed. First, syntheses of pyrrole-fused derivatives via domino C-C/C-N coupling of ortho-dihaloarenes with imines were accomplished. Employment of ortho-dihaloarenes for sequential regioselective Suzuki reaction/double C-N coupling afforded corresponding indole-fused structures. Finally, syntheses of previously unexplored phenanthridine-fused architectures by regioselective Sonogashira reaction followed by domino or one-pot C-N coupling/hydroamination/C-H arylation were described.
Assessing land degradation and sensitivity to desertification using MEDALUS model and Google Earth Engine in a semi-arid area in Southern Morocco: Case of Draa watershed

Subjects: Morocco, desertification, MEDALUS, Draa watershed

description: In Morocco, desertification affects a large area. It is more pronounced as the climate is arid with increasingly a long drought and poor soils that are highly vulnerable to erosion. In addition, the precarious living conditions of rural populations grow to overuse natural resources to meet their growing needs, which amplifies further environmental degradation. In this study, we have used the MEDALUS model to develop the sensitivity map of the Draa watershed. It is very characterized by its topographic, geomorphologic, and hydrological aspects and bioecological qualities. The MEDALUS approach has allowed us to identify the different parameters and to calculate the four indexes needed for this algorithm. The sensitivity of desertification depends on the quality of soil, climate, vegetation, and management system.An aridity index featured the climate was established by using eight climate stations' data. The soil quality is determined by the texture maps, depth, slope, and parental materials from the geological maps of the investigated region. The quality of vegetation to combat desertification is performed by its resistance to drought, fire risk, ability to soil erosion, and plant cover calculated from the Sentibel-2 imagery and performed in Google Earth Engine (GEE). Finally, we had approached the last indicator by land-use intensity and poverty rate from the Census data. The sensitivity map was established by combining the four indexes. The results indicate that the most part of the Drâa watershed is threatened by desertification and represent low resistance to drought and low protection against erosion. Aridity affects more than 63% and this conditions make the area very vulnerable to desertification. These results could be help the decision-makers and policy to better manage and mitigate desertification impacts under global changes.

description: We present a novel quantum high-dimensional linear regression algorithm with an $\ell_1$-penalty based on the classical LARS (Least Angle Regression) pathwise algorithm. Similarly to available classical algorithms for Lasso, our quantum algorithm provides the full regularisation path as the penalty term varies, but quadratically faster per iteration under specific conditions. A quadratic speedup on the number of features $d$ is possible by using the simple quantum minimum-finding subroutine from Dürr and Hoyer (arXiv'96) in order to obtain the joining time at each iteration. We then improve upon this simple quantum algorithm and obtain a quadratic speedup both in the number of features $d$ and the number of observations $n$ by using the approximate quantum minimum-finding subroutine from Chen and de Wolf (ICALP'23). In order to do so, we approximately compute the joining times to be searched over by the approximate quantum minimum-finding subroutine. As another main contribution, we prove, via an approximate version of the KKT conditions and a duality gap, that the LARS algorithm (and therefore our quantum algorithm) is robust to errors. This means that it still outputs a path that minimises the Lasso cost function up to a small error if the joining times are only approximately computed. Furthermore, we show that, when the observations are sampled from a Gaussian distribution, our quantum algorithm's complexity only depends polylogarithmically on $n$, exponentially better than the classical LARS algorithm, while keeping the quadratic improvement on $d$. Moreover, we propose a dequantised version of our quantum algorithm that also retains the polylogarithmic dependence on $n$, albeit presenting the linear scaling on $d$ from the standard LARS algorithm. Finally, we prove query lower bounds for classical and quantum Lasso algorithms.

description: Southern Morocco contains a rich archaeological record: engraving, painted rocks, and funerary monuments. This pre-historic and proto-historical heritage offers valuable information about the environmental context of pre-historic settlements. However, the Southern Moroccan archaeological record suffers from dating scarcity. And hence, the difficulty in establishing a reliable chronology. Most of the archaeological sites date from 7000 to 1000 years BP and are marked by a transition period from a humid to dry climate during the late Holocene. The relatively drier conditions likely resulted in adopting a new lifestyle characterized by cattle ranching, agriculture, and animal domestication. Holocene's enormous climatic oscillations significantly influenced the development of human settlements in the region. The concentration of archaeological archives confirms the existence of sufficient water supply in an area that is today semi-desertic. Therefore, the sedentarization and the development of well-stylized rock art, in addition to the grouping of funerary monuments or tumuli with complex geometry, mark the wet and rainy periods. Meanwhile, unstable communities and long distances migration are often the features that characterize the long dry periods.

description: We present a complete characterization of the metric compactification of $L_{p}$ spaces for $1\leq p < \infty$. Each element of the metric compactification of $L_{p}$ is represented by a random measure on a certain Polish space. By way of illustration, we revisit the $L_{p}$-mean ergodic theorem for $1 < p < \infty$, and Alspach's example of an isometry on a weakly compact convex subset of $L_{1}$ with no fixed points.

description: Die Regelungen des IFRS 10 bedingen, dass aus kreditvertraglichen Rechten, insbesondere im Rahmen der Sanierung notleidender Kredite, eine Konsolidierungspflicht über den Kreditnehmer im IFRS-Konzernabschluss des Kreditinstituts entstehen kann. Da Kreditinstitute eine solche Konsolidierung oftmals vermeiden möchten, wurde im Rahmen einer qualitativen empirischen Studie untersucht, ob IFRS 10 Kreditentscheidungen beeinflusst. Die Studie hat gezeigt, dass IFRS 10 zu erhöhten Eigenkapitalanforderungen, häufigeren Insolvenzen sowie Veräußerungen notleidender Kredite führen könnte.

description: The reliefs overlooking the valleys of the Western High Atlas were covered by glaciers at the level of cirques. The footprints of the glacier activities are characterized in this region by moraines, boulders and ridges. The geomorphological observations show that the Ifni lake, located in the east of Toubkal Mountain, is formed by a natural dam that we interpret as glacial activity. The mixed volcanic lithologies of moraine are consistent with erosion and transport from various points in the valley, which is formed in a suite of lavas: rhyolite, ignimbrite, andesite and basalt. During part of the Holocene and during the little ice age, the glacier has built a moraine of over 130 m in height, which was built in the form of three main ridges separated by depressions. The amalgamation of the moved unities and their position in steps could lead their interpretation as marks of the succession ofthree main stages of glacier advance and retreat during pulses of short duration.

description: In this paper, we investigate the hierarchical structure of the $n$-partite quantum states. We present a whole set of hierarchical quantifications as a method of characterizing quantum states, which go beyond genuine multipartite entanglement measures and allow for fine identification among distinct entanglement contributions. This kind of quantifications, termed $k$-GM concurrence, can unambiguously classify entangled states into $(n-1)$ distinct classes from the perspective of $k$-nonseparability with $k$ running from $n$ down to 2, and comply with the axiomatic conditions of an entanglement measure. Compared to $k$-ME concurrence [\href{https://journals.aps.org/pra/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevA.86.062323} {Phys. Rev. A \textbf{86}, 062323 (2012)}], the hierarchical measures proposed by us embody advantages in distinguishing same class entangled state and measuring continuity. In addition, we establish the relation between $k$-ME concurrence and $k$-GM concurrence, and further derive a strong lower bound on the $k$-GM concurrence by exploiting the permutationally invariant part of a quantum state. Furthermore, we parametrize $k$-GM concurrence to obtain two more general and complete categories of quantifications, $q$-$k$-GM concurrence $(q>1)$ and $α$-$k$-GM concurrence $(0\leqα<1)$, which obey the properties enjoyed by $k$-GM concurrence as well. In particular, $α$-$2$-GM concurrence $(0<α<1)$ determines that the GHZ state and the $W$ state belong to the same hierarchy, and it is proven in detail satisfying the requirement that the GHZ state is more entangled than the $W$ state in multiqubit systems.

description: Novel approaches for the analysis of complex mixtures by high-resolution mass spectrometry are shown. A laser desorption/ionisation method for combustion particles was developed, whereas in electrospray ionisation a new dopant was introduced. For gas chromatography automatised algorithms providing more reliable data were developed. Coupling to thermal analysis enlarged the detectable species. This approach is evaluated for various complex mixtures, such as petrochemicals and biomass. Finally, a detailed chemical description of the most complex crude oil fraction, asphaltenes, could be shown.

description: The southern part of Morocco is mostly an arid area despite the geographical situation of Morocco on the Atlantic and Mediterranean coast. Extreme water scarcity exists in the Taznakht region, the study area, which is located in the central part of southeastern Morocco. The water resources are mainly drawn from groundwater using wells and Khettaras known as traditional irrigation systems. This study analyzes how climate and anthropic factors impact the state of water resources in the plain of Taznakht throughout the last decades (1985-2015). A statistical analysis was conducted using climate data to identify climate trends in the area. With remote sensing, the diachronic evolution of vegetation into the plain was tracked to observe the impact of the resulting trends. Then, a spatial distribution of Khettaras all over the plain was established and their state of functioning was related to the evolution of agricultural fields. The results showed a clear impact of drought phases on vegetation throughout the 30-year study implying a vulnerable water state. Focusing on one particular village, it was also determined that the disappearance of Khettaras due to climate change, extensive pumping, and lack of maintenance by locals and depending on less ecologic irrigation systems contributed to the disappearance of agricultural fields. This situation indicates that global warming and climate change are very serious problems for water management in Taznakht region. It was also discussed that after 2005, due to the Green Morocco Plan (PMV), these climate and anthropic impacts did not affect vegetation as much as in previous years. These impacts do not only affect the ecosystem of Taznakht plain, but also the socio-economic situation of its population, so continuing with applying similar PMV strategies along with encouraging the process of Khettaras renovation and recovery is the right path for a well-balanced lifestyle in the area.
