description: Supermassive black holes and/or very dense stellar clusters are found in the central regions of galaxies. Nuclear star clusters are present mainly in faint galaxies while upermassive black holes are common in galaxies with masses $\geq 10^{10}$ M$_\odot $. In the intermediate galactic mass range both types of central massive objects (CMOs) are found. Here we present our collection of a huge set of nuclear star cluster and massive black hole data that enlarges significantly already existing data bases useful to investigate for correlations of their absolute magnitudes, velocity dispersions and masses with structural parameters of their host galaxies. In particular, we directed our attention to some differences between the correlations of nuclear star clusters and massive black holes as subsets of CMOs with hosting galaxies. In this context, the mass-velocity dispersion relation plays a relevant role because it seems the one that shows a clearer difference between the supermassive black holes and nuclear star clusters. The $M_{MBH}-σ$ has a slope of $5.19\pm 0.28$ while $M_{NSC}-σ$ has the much smaller slope of $1.84\pm 0.64$. The slopes of the CMO mass- host galaxy B magnitude of the two types of CMOs are indistinguishable within the errors while that of the NSC mass-host galaxy mass relation is significantly smaller than for supermassive black holes. Another important result is the clear depauperation of the NSC population in bright galaxy hosts, which reflects also in a clear flattening of the NSC mass vs host galaxy mass at high host masses.

description: We study Planck 2015 cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy data using the energy density inhomogeneity power spectrum generated by quantum fluctuations during an early epoch of inflation in the non-flat XCDM model. Here dark energy is parameterized using a fluid with a negative equation of state parameter but with the speed of fluid acoustic inhomogeneities set to the speed of light. We use this simple parameterization of dynamical dark energy, that is relatively straightforward to use in a computation, in a first attempt to gain some insight into how dark energy dynamics and non-zero spatial curvature jointly affect the CMB anisotropy data constraints. Unlike earlier analyses of non-flat models, we use a physically consistent power spectrum for energy density inhomogeneities. We find that the Planck 2015 data in conjunction with baryon acoustic oscillation measurements are reasonably well fit by a closed XCDM model in which spatial curvature contributes a percent of the current cosmological energy density budget. In this model, the measured Hubble constant and non-relativistic matter density parameter are in good agreement with values determined using most other data. Depending on parameter values, the closed XCDM model has reduced power, relative to the tilted, spatially-flat $Λ$CDM case, and appears to partially alleviate the low multipole CMB temperature anisotropy deficit and can help partially reconcile the CMB anisotropy and weak lensing $σ_8$ constraints, at the expense of somewhat worsening the fit to higher multipole CMB temperature anisotropy data. However, the closed XCDM inflation model does not seem to improve the agreement much, if at all, compared to the closed $Λ$CDM inflation case, even though it has one more free parameter. Our results are interesting but tentative; a more thorough analysis is needed to properly gauge their significance.

description: We reevaluate the hadronic vacuum polarisation contributions to the muon magnetic anomaly and to the running of the electromagnetic coupling constant at the Z-boson mass. We include newest e+e- to hadrons cross-section data (among others) from the BABAR and VEPP-2000 experiments. For the muon (g-2)/2 we find for the lowest-order hadronic contribution (693.1 +- 3.4) 10^-10, improving the precision of our previous evaluation by 21%. The full Standard Model prediction differs by 3.5 sigma from the experimental value. The five-quark hadronic contribution to alpha(mZ) is evaluated to be (276.0 +- 0.9) 10^-4.

description: We present an analysis of microlensing event OGLE-2016-BLG-0693, based on the survey-only microlensing observations by the OGLE and KMTNet groups. In order to analyze the light curve, we consider the effects of parallax, orbital motion, and baseline slope, and also refine the result using a Galactic model prior. From the microlensing analysis, we find that the event is a binary composed of a low-mass brown dwarf 49+-20 M_J companion and a K- or G-dwarf host, which lies at a distance 5.0+-0.6 kpc toward the Galactic bulge. The projected separation between the brown dwarf and its host star is less than 5 AU, and thus it is likely that the brown dwarf companion is located in the brown dwarf desert.

description: Core-collapse supernovae are the first polluters of heavy elements in the galactic history. As such, it is important to study the nuclear compositions of their ejecta, and understand their dependence on the progenitor structure (e.g., mass, compactness, metallicity). Here, we present a detailed nucleosynthesis study based on two long-term, two-dimensional core-collapse supernova simulations of a 11.2 M$_{\odot}$ and a 17.0 M$_{\odot}$ star. We find that in both models nuclei well beyond the iron group (up to $Z \approx 44$) can be produced, and discuss in detail also the nucleosynthesis of the p-nuclei $^{92,94}$Mo and $^{96,98}$Ru. While we observe the production of $^{92}$Mo and $^{94}$Mo in slightly neutron-rich conditions in both simulations, $^{96,98}$Ru can only be produced efficiently via the $ν$p-process. Furthermore, the production of Ru in the $ν$p-process heavily depends on the presence of very proton-rich material in the ejecta. This disentanglement of production mechanisms has interesting consequences when comparing to the abundance ratios between these isotopes in the solar system and in presolar grains.

We present two main algorithms for crystallographic groups whose holonomy group has finite normaliser in $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$. The first algorithm calculates whether a group has the $R_\infty$-property; the second calculates the Reidemeister spectrum. We apply these algorithms to crystallographic groups up to dimension $6$.

description: The particular characteristics associated with qualitative longitudinal research in the disciplines of psychology and social science have prompted the development of informed consent. There are analogies between these characteristics and the collection and analysis of data in online settings. How and why informed consent has developed in qualitative longitudinal research, both theoretically and practically, can provide a useful resource for considering what informed consent means in online settings. Building on this analogy, criteria are proposed that can be used to provide an ethical judgement on consent practices in an online data handling activity, and form the basis for a consent maturity model. It is argued that if we are to learn from from the history of informed consent in qualitative longitudinal research, then we should strive for an Ethics of Virtue approach to informed consent online, the highest level of maturity.

description: Οι ψηφιακές μεταρρυθμίσεις στην τελωνειακή διοίκηση αντιπροσωπεύουν έναν σημαντικό μετασχηματισμό που αντανακλά την ανάγκη για προσαρμογή και πρόοδο σε έναν ψηφιακό κόσμο. Με την ταχεία εξέλιξη της τεχνολογίας και την αύξηση του διεθνούς εμπορίου, οι παραδοσιακές διαδικασίες τελωνειακής διοίκησης έρχονται αντιμέτωπες με νέες προκλήσεις και απαιτήσεις. Στόχος της παρούσας έρευνας είναι η διερεύνηση των αντιλήψεων των τελωνειακών υπαλλήλων σχετικά με την ψηφιακή μεταρρύθμιση στην τελωνειακή διοίκηση. Ειδικότερα διερευνώνται οι προσωπικές εμπειρίες των τελωνειακών υπαλλήλων για την ψηφιακή μεταρρύθμιση, καθώς και οι απόψεις τους σχετικά με την εφαρμογή της. Επίσης, επιχειρεί να ανιχνεύσει τις στρατηγικές αντιμετώπισης των προβλημάτων εφαρμογής της ψηφιακής μεταρρύθμισης και τις αναπαραστάσεις για το μέλλον της. Το θέμα της εργασίας προσεγγίστηκε από τη σκοπιά της ποιοτικής έρευνας. Το δείγμα αποτέλεσαν 12 υπάλληλοι (τελωνειακοί και εκτελωνιστές) που εργάζονται και συνεργάζονται άμεσα με τελωνειακές υπηρεσίες της Βόρειας Πελοποννήσου (Τελωνείο Κορίνθου), οι οποίοι επιλέχθηκαν με τη μέθοδο της σκόπιμης και βολικής δειγματοληψίας. Για τη συλλογή των ερευνητικών δεδομένων χρησιμοποιήθηκε το εργαλείο των ημιδομημένων συνεντεύξεων. Η ανάλυση των δεδομένων υλοποιήθηκε με τη μέθοδο της θεματικής ανάλυσης. Από τη διεξαγωγή της έρευνας προέκυψε ότι η ψηφιακή μεταρρύθμιση στην τελωνειακή διοίκηση ενισχύει την αποτελεσματικότητα, τη διαφάνεια και την ασφάλεια των διαδικασιών ελέγχου εμπορευμάτων και ροής εμπορίου. Επιπλέον, συμβάλλει στη διευκόλυνση των επιχειρηματικών δραστηριοτήτων και τη μείωση του διοικητικού φόρτου για τις εταιρείες, προωθώντας έτσι την οικονομική ανάπτυξη και την επιχειρηματικότητα. Συνεπώς, η ψηφιακή μεταρρύθμιση αναδεικνύεται ως καθοριστικής σημασίας για την ανάπτυξη και την ενίσχυση της τελωνειακής διοίκησης στην εποχή της 4η βιομηχανικής ψηφιακής επανάστασης.
The tight-binding formulation of the Kronig-Penney model

description: We provide a derivation of the tight-binding model that emerges from a full consideration of a particle bound in a periodic one-dimensional array of square well potentials, separated by barriers of height $V_0$ and width $b$. We derive the dispersion for such a model, and show that an effective next-nearest-neighbor hopping parameter is required for an accurate description. An electron-hole asymmetry is prevalent except in the extreme tight-binding limit, and emerges through a "next-nearest neighbor" hopping term in the dispersion. We argue that this does not necessarily imply next-nearest-neighbor tunneling; this is done by deriving the transition amplitudes for a two-state effective model that describes a double-well potential, which is a simplified precursor to the problem of a periodic array of potential wells.

The nature of the tensor order in Cd2Re2O7

description: The pyrochlore metal Cd2Re2O7 has been recently investigated by second-harmonic generation (SHG) reflectivity. In this paper, we develop a general formalism that allows for the identification of the relevant tensor components of the SHG from azimuthal scans. We demonstrate that the secondary order parameter identified by SHG at the structural phase transition is the x2-y2 component of the axial toroidal quadrupole. This differs from the 3z2-r2 symmetry of the atomic displacements associated with the I-4m2 crystal structure that was previously thought to be its origin. Within the same formalism, we suggest that the primary order parameter detected in the SHG experiment is the 3z2-r2 component of the magnetic quadrupole. We discuss the general mechanism driving the phase transition in our proposed framework, and suggest experiments, particularly resonant X-ray scattering ones, that could clarify this issue.

description: We consider a class of tumor growth models under the combined effects of density-dependent pressure and cell multiplication, with a free boundary model as its singular limit when the pressure-density relationship becomes highly nonlinear. In particular, the constitutive law connecting pressure $p$ and density $ρ$ is $p(ρ)=\frac{m}{m-1} ρ^{m-1}$, and when $m \gg 1$, the cell density $ρ$ may evolve its support due to a pressure-driven geometric motion with sharp interface along the boundary of its support. The nonlinearity and degeneracy in the diffusion bring great challenges in numerical simulations, let alone the capturing of the singular free boundary limit. Prior to the present paper, there is lack of standard mechanism to numerically capture the front propagation speed as $m\gg 1$. In this paper, we develope a numerical scheme based on a novel prediction-correction reformulation that can accurately approximate the front propagation even when the nonlinearity is extremely strong. We show that the semi-discrete scheme naturally connects to the free boundary limit equation as $m \rightarrow \infty$, and with proper spacial discretization, the fully discrete scheme has improved stability, preserves positivity, and implements without nonlinear solvers. Finally, extensive numerical examples in both one and two dimensions are provided to verify the claimed properties and showcase good performance in various applications.

description: The matter environment of galaxies is connected to the physics of galaxy formation and evolution. Utilising galaxy-galaxy-galaxy lensing as a direct probe, we map out the distribution of correlated surface mass-density around galaxy pairs for different lens separations in the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Lensing Survey (CFHTLenS). We compare, for the first time, these so-called excess mass maps to predictions provided by a recent semi-analytic model, which is implanted within the dark-matter Millennium Simulation. We analyse galaxies with stellar masses between $10^9-10^{11}\,{\rm M}_\odot$ in two photometric redshift bins, for lens redshifts $z\lesssim0.6$, focusing on pairs inside groups and clusters. To allow us a better interpretation of the maps, we discuss the impact of chance pairs, i.e., galaxy pairs that appear close to each other in projection only. Our tests with synthetic data demonstrate that the patterns observed in the maps are essentially produced by correlated pairs that are close in redshift ($Δz\lesssim5\times10^{-3}$). We also verify the excellent accuracy of the map estimators. In an application to the galaxy samples in the CFHTLenS, we obtain a $3σ-6σ$ significant detection of the excess mass and an overall good agreement with the galaxy model predictions. There are, however, a few localised spots in the maps where the observational data disagrees with the model predictions on a $\approx3.5σ$ confidence level. Although we have no strong indications for systematic errors in the maps, this disagreement may be related to the residual B-mode pattern observed in the average of all maps. Alternatively, misaligned galaxy pairs inside dark matter halos or lensing by a misaligned distribution of the intra-cluster gas might also cause the unanticipated bulge in the distribution of the excess mass between lens pairs.

description: Population dynamics in urban and rural areas are different. Understanding factors that contribute to local population changes has various socioeconomic and political implications. In the present study, we use population census data in Japan to examine contributors to the population growth of residential clusters between years 2005 and 2010. The data set covers the entirety of Japan and has a high spatial resolution of 500$\times$500$\textrm{m}^2$, enabling us to examine population dynamics in various parts of the country (urban and rural) using statistical analysis. We found that, in addition to the area, population density, and age, the shape of the cluster and the spatial distribution of inhabitants within the cluster are significantly related to the population growth rate of a residential cluster. Specifically, the population tends to grow if the cluster is "round" shaped (given the area) and the population is concentrate near the center rather than periphery of the cluster.

description: In the prose style transfer task a system, provided with text input and a target prose style, produces output which preserves the meaning of the input text but alters the style. These systems require parallel data for evaluation of results and usually make use of parallel data for training. Currently, there are few publicly available corpora for this task. In this work, we identify a high-quality source of aligned, stylistically distinct text in different versions of the Bible. We provide a standardized split, into training, development and testing data, of the public domain versions in our corpus. This corpus is highly parallel since many Bible versions are included. Sentences are aligned due to the presence of chapter and verse numbers within all versions of the text. In addition to the corpus, we present the results, as measured by the BLEU and PINC metrics, of several models trained on our data which can serve as baselines for future research. While we present these data as a style transfer corpus, we believe that it is of unmatched quality and may be useful for other natural language tasks as well.

The self-coupled Einstein-Cartan-Dirac equations in terms of Dirac bilinears

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: In this article we present the algebraic rearrangement, or matrix inversion of the Dirac equation in a curved Riemann-Cartan spacetime with torsion, the presence of non-vanishing torsion is implied by the intrinsic spin-1/2 of the Dirac field. We then demonstrate how the inversion leads to a reformulation of the fully non-linear and self-interactive Einstein-Cartan-Dirac field equations in terms of Dirac bilinears. It has been known for some decades that the Dirac equation for charged fermions interacting with an electromagnetic field can be algebraically inverted, so as to obtain an explicit rational expression of the four-vector potential of the gauge field in terms of the spinors. Substitution of this expression into Maxwell's equations yields the bilinear form of the self-interactive Maxwell-Dirac equations. In the present (purely gravitational) case, the inversion process yields \emph{two} rational four-vector expressions in terms of Dirac bilinears, which act as gravitational analogues of the electromagnetic vector potential. These "potentials" also appear as irreducible summand components of the connection, along with a traceless residual term of mixed symmetry. When taking the torsion field equation into account, the residual term can be written as a function of the object of anholonomity. Using the local tetrad frame associated with observers co-moving with the Dirac matter, a generic vierbein frame can described in terms of four Dirac bilinear vector fields, normalized by a scalar and pseudoscalar field. A corollary of this is that in regions where the Dirac field is non-vanishing, the self-coupled Einstein-Cartan-Dirac equations can in principle be expressed in terms of Dirac bilinears only.

description: Στη σύγχρονη εποχή μας τα συστήματα συστάσεων βασίζονται σε μεγάλο βαθμό στη μηχανική μάθηση για να μαθαίνουν αυτόματα και να βελτιώνονται με την πάροδο του χρόνου με βάση τα δεδομένα και τα σχόλια των χρηστών. Πολλοί ιστότοποι και εφαρμογές όπως κοινωνικά δίκτυα, υπηρεσίες περιεχομένου, πλατφόρμες ηλεκτρονικού εμπορίου και άλλα, χρησιμοποιούν αλγόριθμους συστάσεων για να βοηθήσουν τους χρήστες να βρουν νέα αγαθά, υπηρεσίες ή πληροφορίες που μπορεί να τους ενδιαφέρουν. Προκειμένου να μοντελοποιήσουν τα γούστα και τα ενδιαφέροντα ενός χρήστη τα συστήματα συστάσεων χρησιμοποιούν αλγόριθμους μηχανικής μάθησης για την αξιολόγηση τεράστιου όγκου δεδομένων χρήστη, συμπεριλαμβανομένων αξιολογήσεων, ερωτημάτων αναζήτησης και προηγούμενων αγορών. Στη συνέχεια, με τη χρήση αυτού του μοντέλου παράγονται εξατομικευμένες συστάσεις με βάση τις απαιτήσεις και τα γούστα κάθε χρήστη. Στην παρούσα μεταπτυχιακή διπλωματική εργασία έχουμε σκοπό να μελετήσουμε τη θεωρία των γράφων δηλαδή τους τύπους γράφων, τον τρόπο που αποτυπώνονται, που εφαρμόζονται και τα προβλήματα κατά την εφαρμογή τους. Επίσης να εξετάσουμε στη μηχανική μάθηση τις μορφές της, τα μοντέλα της, που εφαρμόζεται και τους περιορισμούς της. Μετά να προχωρήσουμε σε ένα πρακτικό πείραμα. Για το πείραμα μας μεθοδολογία μας ήταν να πάρουμε το σύνολο δεδομένων MovieLens 100K, το εξερευνήσαμε βγάζοντας χρήσιμα συμπεράσματα ανάλυσης δεδομένων σε γράφημα, το φέραμε στην κατάλληλη μορφή ετερογενή μη-κατευθυνόμενου γράφου τον οποίο τελικά χρησιμοποιήσαμε για να εκπαιδεύσουμε ένα σύστημα συστάσεων αλγορίθμου τύπου γράφου νευρωνικού δικτύου. Τελικά κάναμε δύο πειράματα αλλάζοντας τα κριτήρια εκπαίδευσης και μετρήσαμε την απόδοση του αλγορίθμου σε κάθε περίπτωση με τις μετρικές της απώλειας δυαδικής διασταυρούμενης εντροπίας με logits (loss) και της περιοχής κάτω από τη καμπύλη ROC (AUC) τις οποίες οπτικοποιήσαμε σε γραφήματα για την κάθε περίπτωση ώστε να δούμε ευκολότερα τα αποτελέσματα. Τελικά συμπεράναμε και στις δύο περιπτώσεις πως το σύστημα μας απέδωσε “εξαιρετικά”.

description: This paper describes the calculation of the next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections to massive color-octet vector boson pair production at hadron colliders. As a concrete framework, a two-site coloron model with an internal parity is chosen, which can be regarded as an effective low-energy approximation of Kaluza-Klein gluon physics in universal extra dimensions. The renormalization procedure involves several subtleties, which are discussed in detail. The impact of the NLO corrections is relatively modest, amounting to a reduction of 11-14% in the total cross-section, but they significantly reduce the scale dependence of the LO result.

description: We consider the effect of scalarization on static and slowly rotating neutron stars for a wide variety of realistic equations of state, including pure nuclear matter, nuclear matter with hyperons, hybrid nuclear and quark matter, and pure quark matter. We analyze the onset of scalarization, presenting a universal relation for the critical coupling parameter versus compactness. We find that the onset and the magnitude of the scalarization are strongly correlated with the value of the gravitational potential (the metric component $g_{tt}$) at the center of the star. We also consider the moment-of-inertia--compactness relations and confirm universality for the nuclear matter, hyperon and hybrid equations of state.
