description: A torsion theory is called differential (higher differential) if a derivation (higher derivation) can be extended from any module to the module of quotients corresponding to the torsion theory. We study conditions equivalent to higher differentiability of a torsion theory. It is known that the Lambek, Goldie and any perfect torsion theories are differential. We show that these classes of torsion theories are higher differential as well. Then, we study conditions under which a higher derivation extended to a right module of quotients extends also to a right module of quotients with respect to a larger torsion theory. Lastly, we define and study the symmetric version of higher differential torsion theories. We prove that the symmetric versions of the results on higher differential (one-sided) torsion theories hold for higher derivations on symmetric modules of quotients. In particular, we prove that the symmetric Lambek, Goldie and any perfect torsion theories are higher differential.

Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The problem of assessing the performance of algorithms used for the minimization of an $\ell_1$-penalized least-squares functional, for a range of penalty parameters, is investigated. A criterion that uses the idea of `approximation isochrones' is introduced. Five different iterative minimization algorithms are tested and compared, as well as two warm-start strategies. Both well-conditioned and ill-conditioned problems are used in the comparison, and the contrast between these two categories is highlighted.

description: In 1995, Boehm predicted that by 2005, there would be “55 million performers” of “end-user programming” in the United States. Examining the original context and method which generated this number reveals that it actually estimates the number of computer users in businesses—not programmers, per se—and it assumes constant computer usage rates. This paper extends Boehm’s estimate using fresh Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data, including the latest BLS occupational projections (which are for 2012), and a richer estimation method. We estimate that in 2012, there will be 90 million end-users in American workplaces. Of these, we anticipate that over 55 million will use spreadsheets or databases (and therefore will be potential end-user programmers), while over 13 million will describe themselves as programmers. Thus, the potential pool of end-user programmers will probably substantially exceed the population who view themselves as programmers. Each of these estimates, in turn, substantially exceeds the latest BLS projections of fewer than 3 million professional programmers in 2012. Since not all end-users perform the same programming tasks, we surmise that the vast, heterogeneous pool of endusers likely will benefit from a diversity of tools to support their programming activities. Developing such tools efficiently requires a better characterization of what features are valued by each end-user sub-population. To that end, this paper concludes by outlining plans for future research, including creating an abstraction-focused categorization of end-users.

description: An ASEP with two species of particles and different hopping rates is considered on a ring. Its integrability is proved and the Nested Algebraic Bethe Ansatz is used to derive the Bethe Equations for states with arbitrary numbers of particles of each type, generalizing the results of Derrida and Evans. We present also formulas for the total velocity of particles of a given type and their limit for large size of the system and finite densities of the particles.

description: We build the abstract theory of Gromov-Witten invariants of genus 0 for quantum minimal Fano varieties (a minimal natural (with respect to Gromov-Witten theory) class of varieties). In particular, we consider ``the minimal Gromov-Witten ring'', i. e. a commutative algebra with generators and relations of the form used in the Gromov-Witten theory of Fano variety (of unspecified dimension). Gromov-Witten theory of any quantum minimal variety is a homomorphism of this ring to $\mathbb C$. We prove the Abstract Reconstruction Theorem which states the particular isomorphism of this ring with a free commutative ring generated by ``prime two-pointed invariants''. We also find the solutions of the differential equations of type DN for a Fano variety of dimension N in terms of generating series of one-pointed Gromov-Witten invariants.

Vortex dynamics and Reynolds number effects of an oscillating hydrofoil in energy harvesting mode

description: The energy extraction and vortex dynamics from the sinusoidal heaving and pitching motion of an elliptical hydrofoil is explored through large-eddy simulations (LES) at a Reynolds number of $50,000$. The LES is able to capture the time-dependent vortex shedding and dynamic stall properties of the foil as it undergoes high relative angles of attack. Results of the computations are validated against experimental flume data in terms of power extraction and leading edge vortex (LEV) position and trajectory. The kinematics for optimal efficiency are found in the range of heave amplitude $h_o/c=0.5-1$ and pitch amplitude $θ_o=60^{\circ}-65^{\circ}$ for $fc/U_{\infty}=0.1$ and of $h_o/c=1-1.5$ and $θ_o=75^{\circ}-85^{\circ}$ for $fc/U_{\infty}=0.15$. Direct comparison with low Reynolds number simulations and experiments demonstrate strong agreement in energy harvesting performance between Reynolds numbers of $1000$ to $50,000$, with the high Reynolds number flows demonstrating a moderate $0.8-6.7\%$ increase in power compared to the low Reynolds number flow. In the high Reynolds number flows, the coherent LEV, which is critical for high-efficiency energy conversion, forms earlier and is slightly stronger, resulting in more power extraction. After the LEV is shed from the foil, the LEV trajectory is demonstrated to be relatively independent of Reynolds number, but has a very strong nonlinear dependence with kinematics. It is shown that the LEV trajectories are highly influenced by the heave and pitch amplitudes as well as the oscillation frequency. This has strong implications for arrays of oscillating foils since the coherent LEVs can influence the energy extraction efficiency and performance of downstream foils.

title: King Philip I and the church: ruling France in an age of reform
Creators: name: Hewett, Mark
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2025

description: King Philip I of France (r. 1060-1108) has traditionally been seen as a man of poor reputation 
in matters of religion, portrayed as a cynical exploiter of the Church in his lands and a king 
whose personal vices, exemplified especially by his highly controversial second marriage to 
Bertrada of Montfort, compromised his effectiveness as a ruler. Whilst the second half of the 
eleventh century saw a drive for ecclesiastical reform which coincided with an invigorated 
papacy challenging the existing relationship between secular and spiritual power, Philip has 
generally been seen as the antithesis of such change, a stubborn relic of the past who 
remained fiercely opposed to any attempts to undermine his control over the Church. His 
religious initiatives, when acknowledged, have tended to be underappreciated or 
overshadowed by his faults. This thesis argues instead that, when viewed across his whole 
reign, Philip’s relationship with the Church and with ecclesiastical reform should be seen in a 
less negative light. It is suggested that, while Philip certainly did pursue his own ends with an 
eye to political imperatives, he also showed himself, right to the end of his long reign, to be 
an astute and highly adaptable monarch who skilfully navigated the changing times and 
personalities with whom he collided. Furthermore, he showed himself keen to support the 
Church in his realm when he felt able and capable of working with reform-minded figures such 
as Ivo of Chartres, without allowing himself to be dominated by them. Through examining 
Philip’s relationship with the French prelates, the popes and their legates, through 
interrogating his approach to such matters as elections, patronage, and the crusade, and 
through a fresh look at his marriage controversy, this thesis asserts that it is time for a different 
approach to Philip’s religious attitudes.

description: A new physics-based compact model, which makes it possible to simulate in a unified way the neutron and proton of cosmic ray induced SEU cross sections, including effects from nuclear reaction products and from direct ionization by low-energy protons, has been proposed and vali-dated. The proposed approach is analytical and based on explicit analytical relationships and approximations with physics-based fitting parameters. GEANT4 or SRIM numerical calculations can be used as an aid to adjust or refine the phenomenological parameters or functions included in the model taking into account real geometrical configurations and chemical compositions of the devices. In particular, explicit energy dependencies of the soft error cross sections for protons and neutrons over a wide range of nucleon energies were obtained and validated. Main application areas of developed model include space physics, accelerator studies high energy physics and nuclear experiments.

Cubic interaction vertices for fermionic and bosonic arbitrary spin fields

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: Using the light-cone gauge approach to relativistic field dynamics, we study arbitrary spin fermionic and bosonic fields propagating in flat space of dimension greater than or equal to four. Generating functions of parity invariant cubic interaction vertices for totally symmetric and mixed-symmetry massive and massless fields are obtained. For the case of totally symmetric fields, we derive restrictions on the allowed values of spins and the number of derivatives. These restrictions provide a complete classification of parity invariant cubic interaction vertices for totally symmetric fermionic and bosonic fields. As an example of application of the light-cone formalism, we obtain simple expressions for the Yang-Mills and gravitational interactions of massive arbitrary spin fermionic fields. For some particular cases, using our light-cone cubic vertices, we discuss the corresponding manifestly Lorentz invariant and on-shell gauge invariant cubic vertices.

description: What many AI researchers do when they say they are doing AI contradicts what some AI researchers say is AI. Surveys of leading AI textbooks demonstrate a lack of a generally accepted historical record. These surveys also show AI researchers as primarily concerned with prescribing ideal mathematical behaviors into computers -- accounting for 987 of 996 (or 99%) of the AI references surveyed. The most common expectation of AI concerns constructing machines that behave like humans, yet only 27 of 996, (or 2%) of the AI references surveyed were directly consistent with this description. Both approaches have shortcomings Ð prescribing superior behavior into machines fails to scale to multiple tasks easily, while on the other hand, modeling human behaviors in machines can give results that are not always correct or fast. The discrepancy between the kind of work conducted in AI and the kind of work expected from AI cripples the ability to measure progress in the field.

description: Co-operatively owned renewable energy projects in the UK have been praised for their potential to allow communities to take control and benefit directly from clean energy production. The model for energy co-ops has been developing for over twenty years, and some organisations in the sector are questioning where they can go next. This thesis assesses how far there is scope for energy co-ops to develop further, by benefitting communities more widely and doing more to tackle environmental issues. The thesis draws on case study research undertaken at three energy co-op sites, in addition to an online questionnaire sent to 24 energy co-operatives associated with the intermediary Energy4All. By assessing the activity and visions held in these co-operatives it draws out promising areas of innovation. It also highlights the complexity of these groups, and the challenges that they face in retaining engagement and navigating relationships with other public and private organisations. The thesis identifies several key areas where further consideration, or support from intermediary groups, would be helpful to maximise their potential.

Subjects: subject: Networking and Internet Architecture (cs.NI)

description: With the help of a new architecture called Edge/Fog (E/F) computing, cloud computing services can now be extended nearer to data generator devices. E/F computing in combination with Deep Learning (DL) is a promisedtechnique that is vastly applied in numerous fields. To train their models, data producers in conventional DL architectures with E/F computing enable them to repeatedly transmit and communicate data with third-party servers, like Edge/Fog or cloud servers. Due to the extensive bandwidth needs, legal issues, and privacy risks, this architecture is frequently impractical. Through a centralized server, the models can be co-trained by FL through distributed clients, including cars, hospitals, and mobile phones, while preserving data localization. As it facilitates group learning and model optimization, FL can therefore be seen as a motivating element in the E/F computing paradigm. Although FL applications in E/F computing environments have been considered in previous studies, FL execution and hurdles in the E/F computing framework have not been thoroughly covered. In order to identify advanced solutions, this chapter will provide a review of the application of FL in E/F computing systems. We think that by doing this chapter, researchers will learn more about how E/F computing and FL enable related concepts and technologies. Some case studies about the implementation of federated learning in E/F computing are being investigated. The open issues and future research directions are introduced.

description: Over the past few years, The idea of edge computing has seen substantial expansion in both academic and industrial circles. This computing approach has garnered attention due to its integrating role in advancing various state-of-the-art technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT) , 5G, artificial intelligence, and augmented reality. In this chapter, we introduce computing paradigms for IoT, offering an overview of the current cutting-edge computing approaches that can be used with IoT. Furthermore, we go deeper into edge computing paradigms, specifically focusing on cloudlet and mobile edge computing. After that, we investigate the architecture of edge computing-based IoT, its advantages, and the technologies that make Edge computing-based IoT possible, including artificial intelligence and lightweight virtualization. Additionally, we review real-life case studies of how edge computing is applied in IoT-based Intelligent Systems, including areas like healthcare, manufacturing, agriculture, and transportation. Finally, we discuss current research obstacles and outline potential future directions for further investigation in this domain.

description: We present a summary of recent photoproduction results in ultra peripheral relativistic heavy ions collisions with STAR. These collisions have impact parameters larger then twice the nuclear radius; the nuclei do not physically collide, but interact via long-range electromagnetic fields. We observe exclusive $ρ^0$ production as well as $AuAu\to Au^*Au^* ρ^0$ with accompanying mutual nuclear excitation at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV. We report the $ρ^0$ production cross section for both coherent and incoherent coupling accompanied by mutual nuclear excitation. We have studied the cross section as a function of $p_T$, $y_{ρ^0}$ and $M_{ππ}$ and compared it to theoretical models. In addition, we measured the $ρ^0$ helicity matrix elements. They are found to be consistent with s-channel helicity conservation. The ratio of coherent $ρ^0$ and direct $π^+π^-$ pair photoproduction has been measured and found to be consistent with earlier measurements. The 4-pion final state $AuAu \to π^+π^-π^+π^-$ state has also been observed.

description: Humans perceive and spontaneously move to one or several levels of periodic pulses (a metre, for short) when listening to musical rhythm, even when the sensory input does not provide prominent periodic cues to their temporal location. Here, we review a multi-levelled framework to understanding how external rhythmic inputs are mapped onto internally represented metric pulses. This mapping is studied using an approach to quantify and directly compare representations of metric pulses in signals corresponding to sensory inputs, neural activity and behaviour (typically body movement). Based on this approach, recent empirical evidence can be drawn together into a conceptual framework that unpacks the phenomenon of metre into four levels. Each level highlights specific functional processes that critically enable and shape the mapping from sensory input to internal metre. We discuss the nature, constraints and neural substrates of these processes, starting with fundamental mechanisms investigated in macaque monkeys that enable basic forms of mapping between simple rhythmic stimuli and internally represented metric pulse. We propose that human evolution has gradually built a robust and flexible system upon these fundamental processes, allowing more complex levels of mapping to emerge in musical behaviours. This approach opens promising avenues to understand the many facets of rhythmic behaviours across individuals and species.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Synchrony and rhythm interaction: from the brain to behavioural ecology’.

description: Clinical electroencephalographic (EEG) data varies significantly depending on a number of operational conditions (e.g., the type and placement of electrodes, the type of electrical grounding used). This investigation explores the statistical differences present in two different referential montages: Linked Ear (LE) and Averaged Reference (AR). Each of these accounts for approximately 45% of the data in the TUH EEG Corpus. In this study, we explore the impact this variability has on machine learning performance. We compare the statistical properties of features generated using these two montages, and explore the impact of performance on our standard Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based classification system. We show that a system trained on LE data significantly outperforms one trained only on AR data (77.2% vs. 61.4%). We also demonstrate that performance of a system trained on both data sets is somewhat compromised (71.4% vs. 77.2%). A statistical analysis of the data suggests that mean, variance and channel normalization should be considered. However, cepstral mean subtraction failed to produce an improvement in performance, suggesting that the impact of these statistical differences is subtler.

description: A rigorous formulation of the problem of calculating the electromagnetic vacuum energy of an infinite dielectric cylinder is discussed. It is shown that the physically relevant spectrum of electromagnetic excitations includes the surface modes and photonic modes. The mathematical procedure of summing over this spectrum is proposed, and the transition to imaginary frequencies is accomplished. As a result, it is justified the imaginary-frequency representation for the vacuum energy which has been used in previous Casimir studies for this configuration.

description: The authors of the article Phys. Lett. B 652 (2007) 384, (arXiv:0707.2207), propose an interesting method to solve the Faddeev model by reducing it to a set of first order PDEs. They first construct a vectorial quantity $\bm α$, depending on the original field and its first derivatives, in terms of which the field equations reduce to a linear first order equation. Then they find vectors $\bm α_1$ and $\bm α_2$ which identically obey this linear first order equation. The last step consists in the identification of the $\bm α_i$ with the original $\bm α$ as a function of the original field. Unfortunately, the derivation of this last step in the paper cited above contains an error which invalidates most of its results.

description: The aim of this work is to develop a formal semi-analytical model using the modal expansion method in cylindrical coordinates to calculate the optical/electromagnetic (EM) radiation force-per-length experienced by an infinitely long electrically-conducting elliptical cylinder having a smooth or wavy/corrugated surface in EM plane progressive waves with different polarizations. One of the semi-axes of the elliptical cylinder coincides with the direction of the incident field. The modal matching method is used to determine the scattering coefficients by matrix inversion. Standard cylindrical (Bessel and Hankel) wave functions are used. Simplified expressions leading to exact series expansions for the optical/EM radiation forces assuming either electric (TM) of magnetic (TE) plane wave incidences are provided without any approximations, in addition to integral equations demonstrating the direct relationship of the radiation force with the square of the scattered field magnitude. Numerical computations for the non-dimensional radiation force function are performed for electrically conducting elliptic and circular cylinders having a smooth or ribbed/corrugated surface. Adequate convergence plots confirm the validity and correctness of the method to evaluate the radiation force with no limitation to a particular frequency range (i.e. Rayleigh, Mie or geometrical optics regimes). Emphases are given on the aspect ratio, the non-dimensional size of the cylinder, the corrugation characteristic of its surface, and the polarization of the incident field. The results are particularly relevant in optical tweezers and other related applications in fluid dynamics, where the shape and stability of a cylindrical drop stressed by a uniform external electric/magnetic field are altered. Furthermore, a direct analogy with the acoustical counterpart is discussed.

description: Deep inelastic structure functions can be calculated from supergravity when the Bjorken parameter $x$ satisfies $ x > 1/\sqrt{gN} $. We consider a gauge theory with very large 't Hooft coupling $gN$ in order to investigate the region $x << 1$. In this case the center of mass energy is large enough to increase the number of hadronic constituents of the final state. We calculate the structure functions in terms of the number of final hadronic constituents. At small $x$ we find a scaling law similar to geometric scaling but with $γ_s = 0.5 $ and $ λ= 1 $.
description: In V1 we assumed the transversality of the 4-d hadronic tensor but considered a non conserved 5-d current that spoils this property. In this V2 we define a modified conserved 5-d current that solves this problem and preserves our previous results for the structure functions. We also clarify the meaning of our final hadronic state. 14 pgs., 1 latex fig

description: There has been little study of how to adapt handheld devices for use by people with physical disabilities. We found that the tiny stylus keyboards on PalmOS devices work well for some people with Muscular Dystrophy, who tend to have good accuracy but little strength or range of motion. However, for people with other disabilities, such as Cerebral Palsy, Parkinson's Disease and other neuro-muscular disorders, accuracy is a problem. Text entry is also difficult on handhelds for able-bodied users some situations, such as when using small mobile devices while walking or riding. The EdgeWrite text entry technique is a new design which provides better stability of motion due to tracing along physical edges, ease of learning due to the similarity of its letters to Roman characters, and a simple implementation on a wide variety of input devices. Studies suggest that EdgeWrite works well when implemented for use with a stylus on a handheld device, a joystick on a power wheelchair or a videogame controller, and for a touchpad on a desktop computer. Future implementations will explore desktop text entry using a trackball and mobile phone text entry using tactile bumps.

description: Ste20-like kinases are critically multifuctional proteins which play important roles in varieties of celluar processes and physiological events. Here, We characterized a Ste20-like kinase gene (DjSlk) in planarian Dugesia japonica. Whole-mount in situ hybridizations revealed that DjSlk was expressed in the central nervous system (CNS) including cephalic ganglia and ventral nerve cords (VNCs) in intact and regenerating animals. After RNA interference (RNAi) of DjSlk, adult planarians became immobilized and wrinkled, then swelled and lysed eventually. DjSlk RNAi treated regenerating planarians could form the entire animals, and then displayed the similar phenotype transformation. These results suggest that loss of function of DjSlk leads to morphogenetic malformation of planarian D. japonica probably via regulating cell volume instead of disrupting the balance between cell proliferation and apoptosis.

description: We study formally and rigorously the bifurcation to steady and time-periodic states in a model for a thin superconducting wire in the presence of an imposed current. Exploiting the PT-symmetry of the equations at both the linearized and nonlinear levels, and taking advantage of the collision of real eigenvalues leading to complex spectrum, we obtain explicit asymptotic formulas for the stationary solutions, for the amplitude and period of the bifurcating periodic solutions and for the location of their zeros or "phase slip centers" as they are known in the physics literature. In so doing, we construct a center manifold for the flow and give a complete description of the associated finite-dimensional dynamics.

description: To be effective, state of the art machine learning technology needs large amounts of annotated data. There are numerous compelling applications in healthcare that can benefit from high performance automated decision support systems provided by deep learning technology, but they lack the comprehensive data resources required to apply sophisticated machine learning models. Further, for economic reasons, it is very difficult to justify the creation of large annotated corpora for these applications. Hence, automated annotation techniques become increasingly important. In this study, we investigated the effectiveness of using an active learning algorithm to automatically annotate a large EEG corpus. The algorithm is designed to annotate six types of EEG events. Two model training schemes, namely threshold-based and volume-based, are evaluated. In the threshold-based scheme the threshold of confidence scores is optimized in the initial training iteration, whereas for the volume-based scheme only a certain amount of data is preserved after each iteration. Recognition performance is improved 2% absolute and the system is capable of automatically annotating previously unlabeled data. Given that the interpretation of clinical EEG data is an exceedingly difficult task, this study provides some evidence that the proposed method is a viable alternative to expensive manual annotation.

description: Let $X$ and $Y$ be finite complexes. When $Y$ is a nilpotent space, it has a rationalization $Y \to Y_{(0)}$ which is well-understood. Early on it was found that the induced map $[X,Y] \to [X,Y_{(0)}]$ on sets of mapping classes is finite-to-one. The sizes of the preimages need not be bounded; we show, however, that as the complexity (in a suitable sense) of a rational mapping class increases, these sizes are at most polynomial. This ``torsion'' information about $[X,Y]$ is in some sense orthogonal to rational homotopy theory but is nevertheless an invariant of the rational homotopy type of $Y$ in at least some cases. The notion of complexity is geometric and we also prove a conjecture of Gromov \cite{GrMS} regarding the number of mapping classes that have Lipschitz constant at most $L$.

description: Ecological risk assessment using multiple biomarkers produce a large amount of data that is hard to interpret and the result are often contradictory. In this context, Integrated Biomarker Response (IBR) index was used to integrate the biomarkers effects to assess the impact of environmental contaminants in marine gastropod Nerita chamaeleon from Goa, India. Genotoxic (DNA damage as measured by comet assay and alkaline unwinding assay) and biochemical [superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione S-transferase, lipid peroxidation and acetylcholinesterase] biomarkers were measured in snails collected from different sites (Arambol, Anjuna, Sinquerim, Dona Paula, Velsao, Betul and Palolem). Total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in snail tissue were in the range from 5.29 - 12.14 μg/g wet weight. Standardized values of biomarker response were visualized using star plots, which show unique patterns for different biomarkers. The mean IBR value was found to be highest at Dona Paula (8.07 ± 0.91) followed by Sinquerim (6.95 ± 0.91), Velsao (4.48 ± 0.68), Anjuna (3.28 ± 1.05), Palolem (2.53 ± 0.73), Arambol (1.81 ± 0.21) and Betul (0.88 ± 0.77). Additionally, the IBR values were found to be positively correlated with PAH concentration in snail tissues. These results suggest that integration of biomarkers effects using IBR along with chemical analysis can be a useful tool for the assessment of environmental pollution and to identify spatial patterns of contamination in the aquatic ecosystem.
