Diophantine equation for the Rice-Mele model: Topological aspect of filling numbers and associated spatial pump

description: We introduce a long-period generic spatial modulation into a typical model of the Thouless pump, namely, the Rice--Mele (RM) model, to examine the lattice analog of the fermion charge in quantum field theory. We derive a Diophantine equation relating the fermion charge and the pumped charge, which leads to the one-dimensional (1D) analog of the Streda formula in the quantum Hall effect (QHE). This formula implies that an adiabatic change of the periodicity of the spatial modulation yields a spatial charge pump such that the rightmost charge is pumped to the right by the Chern number compared with the leftmost charge. This causes a change in the length of the fermion chain by an integer, thus providing the opportunity for direct measurement of the Streda formula in 1D systems.

description: Η διατριβή πραγματεύεται την ελληνική γραφή των εντοίχιων ψηφιδωτών της ύστερης βυζαντινής περιόδου (1204-1453), τα οποία εντοπίζονται στην Κωνσταντινούπολη (Δέηση της Αγίας Σοφίας, καθολικό της Μονής της Χώρας, νότιο παρεκκλήσιο της Μονής Παμμακαρίστου) και στον ελλαδικό χώρο (Ευαγγελισμός εξωνάρθηκα και άγιος Νικόλαος στο ομώνυμο παρεκκλήσιό του στη Μονή Βατοπεδίου, Παρηγορήτισσα Άρτας, Άγιοι Απόστολοι Θεσσαλονίκης, Πόρτα Παναγιά στην Πύλη Τρικάλων). Οι εξεταζόμενες επιγραφές αποτελούν προσδιορισμούς των εικονιζόμενων σκηνών και προσώπων, παλαιοδιαθηκικά και ευαγγελικά χωρία, ενώ ελάχιστες είναι κτητορικές και ταφικές. Για τη διαχείριση του υλικού προτάθηκε μία μέθοδος επεξεργασίας που στηρίχθηκε στη δημιουργία πινάκων παλαιογραφικών στοιχείων (γράμματα, συνενώσεις, συντομογραφίες) αρχικά για το σύνολο των επιγραφών κάθε μνημείου. Μέσω αυτής της διαδικασίας κατέστη δυνατή η αναγνώριση και αποτύπωση του γραφικού ιδιώματος ή των γραφικών ιδιωμάτων σε κάθε ναό και η διερεύνηση των μεταξύ τους σχέσεων.
description: The thesis examines the Greek script in wall mosaics of the late Byzantine period (1204-1453) found in Constantinople (Deesis panel of Haghia Sophia, Chora Monastery, south chapel of Pammakaristos Monastery) and in Greece (Annunciation of the outer narthex and St. Nicholas at his chapel in Vatopedi Monastery, Parigoritissa of Arta, Holy Apostles in Thessaloniki, Porta Panaghia in Pyle, Trikala). The inscriptions examined consist of person names and scenes, excerpts derived from the Old Testament and the Gospels, while a few are dedicatory and funerary. The suggested way of processing the data was based in the creation of palaeographic tables containing all the variations of the letters, the ligatures and the abbreviations for each monument. This procedure led us to the identification of the writing style or styles in all the churches and the investigation of the possible relations among them.

description: Coronavirus disease 2019 (CoViD-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Among many symptoms, cough, fever and tiredness are the most common. People over 60 years old and with associated comorbidities are most likely to develop a worsening health condition. This paper proposes a non-integer order model to describe the dynamics of CoViD-19 in a standard population. The model incorporates the reinfection rate in the individuals recovered from the disease. Numerical simulations are performed for different values of the order of the fractional derivative and of reinfection rate. The results are discussed from a biological point of view.

description: We present mid-IR spectral decomposition of a sample of 48 Spitzer-selected ULIRGs spanning z~1-3 and likely L_IR~10^12-10^13Lsun. Our study aims at quantifying the star-formation and AGN processes in these sources which recent results suggest have evolved strongly between the observed epoch and today. To do this, we study the mid-IR contribution of PAH emission, continuum, and extinction. About 3/4 of our sample are continuum- (i.e. AGN) dominated sources, but ~60% of these show PAH emission, suggesting the presence of star-formation activity. These sources have redder mid-IR colors than typical optically-selected quasars. About 25% of our sample have strong PAH emission, but none are likely to be pure starbursts as reflected in their relatively high 5um hot dust continua. However, their steep 30um-to-14um slopes suggest that star-formation might dominate the total infrared luminosity. Six of our z~2 sources have EW6.2>~0.3um and L_14um>~10^12Lsun (implying L_IR>~10^13Lsun). At these luminosities, such high EW6.2 ULIRGs do not exist in the local Universe. We find a median optical depth at 9.7um of =1.4. This is consistent with local IRAS-selected ULIRGs, but differs from early results on SCUBA-selected z~2 ULIRGs. Similar to local ULIRGs about 25% of our sample show extreme obscuration (tau_9.7>~3) suggesting buried nuclei. In general, we find that our sources are similar to local ULIRGs, but are an order of magnitude more luminous. It is not clear whether our z~2 ULIRGs are simply scaled-up versions of local ULIRGs, or subject to fundamentally different physical processes.

This supersymmetry anomaly can be removed in the old minimal supergravity by adding suitable local counterterms, and it becomes a consistent theory.

description: We study nonlinear response of a ferrimagnetic sphere resonator (FSR) strongly coupled to a microwave loop gap resonator (LGR). The measured response in the regime of weak nonlinearity allows the extraction of the FSR Kerr coefficient and its cubic damping rate. We find that there is a certain range of driving parameters in which the system exhibits instability. In that range, self-sustained modulation of the reflected power off the system is generated. The instability is attributed to absorption-induced heating of the FSR above its Curie temperature.
Jeans instability of a galactic disk embedded in a live dark halo

description: We investigate the Jeans instability of a galactic disk embedded in a dynamically responsive dark halo. It is shown that the disk-halo system becomes nominally Jeans unstable. On small scales the instability is suppressed, if the Toomre stability index Q_T is higher than a certain threshold, but on large scales the Jeans instability sets invariably in. However, using a simple self-consistent disk-halo model it is demonstrated that this occurs on scales which are much larger than the system so that this is indeed only a nominal effect. From a practical point of view the Jeans instability of galactic disks is not affected by a live dark halo.

The Juncker Investment Plan: where are the social investments ?
Creators: name: Debruyne, M.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2015

description: The Juncker Investment Plan (JIP) is the Commission’s response to the urgent demands for growth. Growth is regarded as a counterpart of the austerity measures. Consequently, the Commission has set up ‘an ambitious program of jobs, growth and investment".

The JIP intends to mobilise up to EUR 300 billion in additional public and private investment into the real economy over the next three years. The focus of this additional investment should be in the areas of infrastructure, notably broadband and energy networks, as well as transport infrastructure in industrial centres; education, research and innova-tion; and renewable energy and energy efficiency1.

Policy brief 1 presents our analysis of this ambitious program. We begin with analysing the illustrative project list attached to the recent Communication issued by the Commission, ‘An Investment Plan for Europe’. This project list, developed by an Independent Investment Committee, provides the member states with the information on potential areas the Commission intends to subsidise. Given that the investment plan is not yet finalized, the observations offered in this policy brief are provisional.

A genuine investment boost is obviously welcome for the recovery of Europe’s economy. Since the year 2000, there has been a dramatic decline of investment in Europe, especially in the southern countries of the EU.

However, our analyses demonstrate that:

	Firstly, there is a serious risk that the JIP will result in widening the gap between the ‘good’-performing countries and the rest of Europe.
	 Secondly, the proposed plan does not adequately meet the needs of the different countries affected by the crisis.
	Thirdly, the share of social investment in the JIP is marginal, suggesting a missed opportunity to enhance the livelihood of vulnerable populations.

A more balanced investment plan is thus needed. We suggest a number of criteria for adjusting the current investment plan:

	Any such plan will need to be rooted in a democratic discussion with all concerned parties from the social, civil and parliamentary field, at every conceivable level. One of the salient features of the current JIP is its technocratic nature. The crisis and its remedies seem to have triggered technocratic processes that have once again bypassed the democratic decision-making process
	Any such plan must focus on reducing the gap between the triple-A countries and the countries under budgetary stress.
	Any such plan must focus on repairing the social damage of the crisis. It must also boost social investment and focus on empowering vulnerable people.

description: The addition of an adjoint Polyakov loop term to the action of a pure gauge theory at finite temperature leads to new phases of SU(N) gauge theories. For SU(3), a new phase is found which breaks Z(3) symmetry in a novel way; for SU(4), the new phase exhibits spontaneous symmetry breaking of Z(4) to Z(2), representing a partially confined phase in which quarks are confined, but diquarks are not. The overall phase structure and thermodynamics is consistent with a theoretical model of the effective potential for the Polyakov loop based on perturbation theory.

description: We present new results from our ongoing multiplicity study of exoplanet host stars, carried out with the infrared camera SofI at ESO-NTT. We have identified new low mass companions to the planet host stars HD101930 and HD65216. HD101930AB is a wide binary systems composed of the planet host star HD101930A and its companion HD101930B which is a M0 to M1 dwarf with a mass of about 0.7Msun separated from the primary by ~73arcsec (2200AU projected separation). HD65216 forms a hierarchical triple system, with a projected separation of 253AU (angular separation of about 7arcsec) between the planet host star HD65216A and its close binary companion HD65216BC, whose two components are separated by only ~0.17arcsec (6AU of projected separation). Two VLT-NACO images separated by 3 years confirm that this system is co-moving to the planet host star. The infrared photometry of HD65216B and C is consistent with a M7 to M8 (0.089Msun), and a L2 to L3 dwarf (0.078Msun), respectively, both close to the sub-stellar limit. An infrared spectrum with VLT-ISAAC of the pair HD65216BC, even though not resolved spatially, confirms this late spectral type. Furthermore, we present H- and K-band ISAAC infrared spectra of HD16141B, the recently detected co-moving companion of the planet host star HD16141A. The infrared spectroscopy as well as the apparent infrared photometry of HD16141B are both fully consistent with a M2 to M3 dwarf located at the distance of the planet host star.

description: The thesis belongs to a recently established field known as “Greek for Academic Purposes”, which forms part of the international field of applied-educational linguistics “Language for Specific Purposes”. The aim of the research is to connect the study of Greek academic discourse with the teaching of Greek as a second/ foreign language in academic contexts. Combining genre, multiliteracy and critical pedagogies, we propose a model of academic (multi)literacies for the teaching of academic discourse. The application of the proposed model within a critical ethnographic perspective to foreign students of the School of Modern Greek Language at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki reveals the interdiscursivity and multivoicedness of the teaching method, in accord with the negotiating identities and agency of the social actors. The present thesis proposes a social semiotic approach to language teaching forming an ecoliteracy argument at the approach of academic discourse. Thus, today’s students –whether native of non native speakers of Greek– are trained to become tomorrow’s “world citizens”.
Interfacial studies in the zinc pressure leach technology
Creators: name: Owusu, George
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Interfacial tension measurements in the liquid sulphur - zinc sulphate solution system, and contact angle measurements in the liquid sulphur, aqueous solution and zinc sulphide mineral were made at a temperature of 125 ± 4°C under superatmospheric conditions using the pendant drop technique. The purpose of these measurements was to study the dramatic effect of surface active agents, particularly ligninsulphonate on the performance of the zinc pressure leach. The measurements obtained showed that, in the absence of surfactant, the liquid sulphur - aqueous solution interfacial tension was 54±1 dynes/cm and this value was reduced to 27-30 dynes/cm when 0.3g/l ligninsulphonate was present in the system. The contact angle obtained was 80±5° in surfactant-free system. This value increased to 148 ± 5° when 0.3g/l ligninsulphonate was present in the system. The reduction in the interfacial tensions, combined with the mechanical agitation of the slurry disperses the liquid sulphur into small droplets in the slurry and the increase in contact angles reduces the liquid sulphur - solid mineral adhesive work from 63.7 ergs/cm² in the surfactant-free system to about 5.3 ergs/cm² in the presence of 0.3g/l ligninsulphonate. These properties enhance sulphur removal from the surface of any unreacted zinc sulphide mineral in the zinc pressure leach technology. These results indicate that the surfactant is adsorbed at both liquid sulphur - aqueous solution and aqueous solution - marmatite mineral interfaces.

description: The neutron imaging instrument CONRAD was operated as a part of the user program of the research reactor BER-II at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) from 2005 to 2020. The instrument was designed to use the neutron flux from the cold source of the reactor, transported by a curved neutron guide. The pure cold neutron spectrum provided a great advantage in the use of different neutron optical components such as focusing lenses and guides, solid-state polarizers, monochromators and phase gratings. The flexible setup of the instrument allowed for implementation of new methods including wavelength-selective, dark-field, phase-contrast and imaging with polarized neutrons. In summary, these developments helped to attract a large number of scientists and industrial customers, who were introduced to neutron imaging and subsequently contributed to the expansion of the neutron imaging community.

description: We study the relations between the mass of the central black hole (BH) $M_{\rm BH}$, the dark matter halo mass $M_{\rm h}$, and the stellar-to-halo mass fraction $f_\star\propto M_\star/M_{\rm h}$ in a sample of $55$ nearby galaxies with dynamically measured $M_{\rm BH}>10^6\,{\rm M}_\odot$ and $M_{\rm h}>5\times10^{11}\,{\rm M}_\odot$. The main improvement with respect to previous studies is that we consider both early- and late-type systems for which $M_{\rm h}$ is determined either from globular cluster dynamics or from spatially resolved rotation curves. Independently of their structural properties, galaxies in our sample build a well defined sequence in the $M_{\rm BH}$-$M_{\rm h}$-$f_\star$ space. We find that: (i) $M_{\rm h}$ and $M_{\rm BH}$ strongly correlate with each other and anti-correlate with $f_\star$; (ii) there is a break in the slope of the $M_{\rm BH}$-$M_{\rm h}$ relation at $M_{\rm h}$ of $10^{12}\,{\rm M}_\odot$, and in the $f_\star$-$M_{\rm BH}$ relation at $M_{\rm BH}$ of $\sim10^7\!-\!10^8\,{\rm M}_\odot$; (iii) at a fixed $M_{\rm BH}$, galaxies with a larger $f_\star$ tend to occupy lighter halos and to have later morphological types. We show that the observed trends can be reproduced by a simple equilibrium model in the $Λ$CDM framework where galaxies smoothly accrete dark and baryonic matter at a cosmological rate, having their stellar and black hole build-up regulated both by the cooling of the available gas reservoir and by the negative feedback from star formation and active galactic nuclei (AGN). Feature (ii) arises as the BH population transits from a rapidly accreting phase to a more gentle and self-regulated growth, while scatter in the AGN feedback efficiency can account for feature (iii).

i.e. whether they tend to repeat the utterances of others or introduce new information
to the discourse of the play. Our method captures the role of characters
in this discourse, and through pairwise comparisons, we can also construct networks
that represent character relationships in a new way compared to existing
approaches. By examining some of Shakespeare’s plays, we also identify general
patterns regarding the structural differences of the networks and gender roles
in comedies and tragedies/non-comedies.

description: The aim of this thesis was the investigation of the properties of semiconducting materials and nanostructures using computational tools such as ab initio methods, molecular dynamics simulations and structure prediction algorithms, utilizing high performance computers. Initially, the energetics and strain of indium-gallium nitride nanodisks in gallium nitride nanowires and the electronic properties of the nanowires were examined. Furthermore, the structural, electronic and thermal properties of gallium nitride/aluminum nitride core/shell nanowires and the structural properties of gallium arsenide/aluminum-gallium arsenide core/shell nanowires were investigated. Finally, the structures of the ternary alloys of gallium-aluminum nitride, indium-gallium nitride and indium-aluminum nitride and silicon-tin nitride were predicted and afterwards a detailed analysis of their energetics and electronic properties was performed.

description: The role of gravity in human motor control is at the same time obvious and difficult to isolate. It can be assessed by performing experiments in variable gravity. We propose that adiabatic invariant theory may be used to reveal nearly-conserved quantities in human voluntary rhythmic motion, an individual being seen as a complex time-dependent dynamical system with bounded motion in phase-space. We study an explicit realization of our proposal: An experiment in which we asked participants to perform $\infty-$ shaped motion of their right arm during a parabolic flight, either at self-selected pace or at a metronome's given pace. Gravity varied between $0$ and $1.8$ $g$ during a parabola. We compute the adiabatic invariants in participant's frontal plane assuming a separable dynamics. It appears that the adiabatic invariant in vertical direction increases linearly with $g$, in agreement with our model. Differences between the free and metronome-driven conditions show that participants' adaptation to variable gravity is maximal without constraint. Furthermore, motion in the participant's transverse plane induces trajectories that may be linked to higher-derivative dynamics. Our results show that adiabatic invariants are relevant quantities to show the changes in motor strategy in time-dependent environments.

description: Of the known 1.5 million fungal species, Candida spp., Cryptococcus spp., and Paracoccidioides spp. are the main pathogenic species causing serious diseases with almost two million annual deaths. The diagnosis and treatment of fungal infections are challenging since of the limited access to diagnostic tests and the emergence of antifungal resistance. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) promote the interactions of fungal cells with other organisms and play an important role in the pathogen–host relationship. Owing to the complexity of fungal EVs and the lack of clinical studies on their roles in human infections, we studied the EVs from the serum and urine samples of patients with fungal infections caused by Candida albicans, Cryptococcus neoformans, and Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and determined their roles. Sterols, sphingolipids, and fatty acids were identified as the main metabolites in EVs content via mass spectrometry analysis. Cholesterol and ergosterol quantification revealed the presence of host and fungal EVs in clinical samples from patients with candidiasis, cryptococcosis, and paracoccidioidomycosis. We asked whether these metabolites in EVs could play roles in modulating the host immune response. Our findings revealed the polarization of the proinflammatory profile in murine and human macrophages, with the increased production of cytokines, such as the tumor necrosis factor-α, interferon-γ, and interleukin-6, and an increased expression of the inducible nitric oxide synthase gene, a M1 response marker. Therefore, circulating EVs from patients with fungal infections are likely involved in the disease pathophysiology. Our findings provide insights into the roles of EVs in fungal infections in clinical samples and in vitro, suggesting possible targets for systemic mycoses therapy.

description: The numerical simulation and analysis of the ejection of an ink droplet through a nozzle as well its motion through air until its contact with a surface and taking up of a stable form is performed. The fluid flow is modeled by the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with added surface tension. The presented model can be solved using either a level set or a phase field method to track the fluid interface. Here, the level set method is used to determinate the interface between ink and air. The presented work concentrates on the demonstration how to check the suitability of ink for inkjet printhead nozzles, for instance, for the use in printers. The results such as velocity, change of size, and volume dependence on time of an ink droplet are presented. Recommendations for the use of specific inks are also given.

description: We derive the boundary condition for a subdiffusive particle interacting with a reactive boundary with finite reaction rate. Molecular crowding conditions, that are found to cause subdiffusion of larger molecules in biological cells, are shown to effect long-tailed distributions with identical exponent for both the unbinding times from the boundary to the bulk and the rebinding times from the bulk. This causes a weak ergodicity breaking: typically, an individual particle either stays bound or remains in the bulk for very long times. We discuss why this may be beneficial for in vivo gene regulation by DNA-binding proteins, whose typical concentrations are nanomolar

description: Η εργασία ερευνά το περιοδικό «Ο Κόσμος της Ελληνίδος» ως αγωγό μετάδοσης του Ευαγγελικού μηνύματος στη μεταπολεμική ελληνική κοινωνία. Για τις ανάγκες της έρευνας ομαδοποιήθηκαν και μελετήθηκαν όλα τα άρθρα των 144 τευχών του, που καλύπτουν τη χρονική περίοδο από τον Νοέμβριο του 1953 ως τον Δεκέμβριο του 1967, η οποία ευρύτατα θεωρείται ως η μεταπολεμική εποχή στην Ελλάδα. Αρχικά παρουσιάστηκε το ιστορικό πλαίσιο και στη συνέχεια δόθηκαν εν συντομία ιστορικά στοιχεία της Αδελφότητας «Ζωή» και των συλλόγων της με έμφαση στις εκδόσεις τους. Ακολουθεί το κεφάλαιο που ασχολείται με την περιγραφή των εκδοτικών χαρακτηριστικών του περιοδικού και στη συνέχεια γίνεται η ανάλυση του περιεχομένου των άρθρων του. Ειδικότερα εξετάζεται ο τρόπος που προσφέρονται οι αρχές του Ευαγγελίου στις αναγνώστριες, επί το πλείστον – αποδέκτες του, που για μεθοδολογικούς λόγους χωρίστηκαν σε τέσσερις μεγάλες κατηγορίες: τη γυναίκα σύζυγο, μητέρα, εργαζόμενη και εθελόντρια στη Χριστιανική Κοινωνική Πρόνοια. Η εργασία ολοκληρώνεται με τα συμπεράσματα και την παράθεση, σε ξεχωριστό τόμο, του παραρτήματος, που περιλαμβάνει σε πίνακες την ύλη του περιοδικού «Ο Κόσμος της Ελληνίδος» ανά έτος και ανά τεύχος.
description: The paper explores the magazine “The World of the Greek Woman” as a broadcast conduit for the message of the Gospel during post-war Greek society. For the purpose of the work they have been summarized and studied the articles from its 144 issues, which cover the time frame from November 1953 to December of 1967, which is largely regarded as the post war era of Greece. Initially the historical time frame was presented and in continuing provided brief historical details on the Fraternity “Zoe” and the respective clubs with emphasis on their publications. Below is the chapter which handles the description of the editorial characteristics of the magazine and continues with an analysis on the content of its articles. Particular attention is paid to the way in which the principles of the Gospel are offered to the readers- largely recipients of such, who for methodological reasons were divided into four major categories: wife, mother, employee and volunteer within the Christian Social Welfare. The work concludes with the findings and the apposition, in a separate volume, the annex which contains the table of content for the “World of the Greek Woman”, per year and per issue.

description: Knowledge of the beam profiles of terahertz emitters is required for the design of terahertz instruments and applications, and in particular for designing terahertz communications links. We report measurements of beam profiles of an optoelectronic silicon lens-integrated PIN-PD emitter at frequencies between 100 GHz and 1 THz and observe significant deviations from a Gaussian beam profile. The beam profiles were found to differ between the H-plane and the E-plane, and to vary strongly with the emitted frequency. Skewed profiles and irregular side-lobes were observed. Metrological aspects of beam profile measurements are discussed and addressed.

description: Post-training quantization is a representative technique for compressing neural networks, making them smaller and more efficient for deployment on edge devices. However, an inaccessible user dataset often makes it difficult to ensure the quality of the quantized neural network in practice. In addition, existing approaches may use a single uniform bit-width across the network, resulting in significant accuracy degradation at extremely low bit-widths. To utilize multiple bit-width, sensitivity metric plays a key role in balancing accuracy and compression. In this paper, we propose a novel sensitivity metric that considers the effect of quantization error on task loss and interaction with other layers. Moreover, we develop labeled data generation methods that are not dependent on a specific operation of the neural network. Our experiments show that the proposed metric better represents quantization sensitivity, and generated data are more feasible to be applied to mixed-precision quantization.
