title: The Divide-and-Conquer Method for the Solution of the Symmetric Tridiagonal Eigenproblem and Transputer Implementations
Creators: name: Fachin, Maria Paula Goncalves
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2023

description: This thesis describes a divide-and-conquer method for solving the symmetric tridiagonal eigenproblem and its parallel implementation on a transputer network. The method was first developed by Cuppen based on previous ideas of Bunch et al. who showed how to compute the eigensystem of a diagonal matrix which is perturbed by a rank-one matrix. We develop a new approach to the theory for arriving at the secular equation, the roots of which are the eigenvalues of a given symmetric tridiagonal matrix. We present new proofs for the convergence of the iterative method which finds these roots. We incorporate into the solution process an alternative way of computing any root when it is found to be very close to the right endpoint of the interval, generated from data for the unperturbed matrix, within which it is located. When this situation occurs the computation of the corresponding eigenvector is obstructed. Our reformulation circumvents this difficulty and, used in conjunction with the original means of computing the roots, produces generally more accurate results. We have implemented the Divide-and-Conquer algorithm on a network of transputers organized in a rectangular grid. This organization works well, while remaining straight-forward to program. Because of the way the Divide-and-Conquer method works, our implementation is best suited to a number of processors which is a power of two. The maximum number of transputers for which the program was tested was 16. The Divide-and-Conquer method was found to be faster than the QL algorithm, even when executed in sequential mode. An explanation for this is suggested by complexity models, which we have developed. The method was also found to have good scalability when the number of processors is increased; that is we still obtain good speed-up values when more processors are used. A further feature is its super linearity performance: efficiencies greater than 1 have been obtained. To some extent our complexity model explains this; it does not, however, take into account communication issues, which will be the subject of future work.

description: LiDAR is used in autonomous driving to provide 3D spatial information and enable accurate perception in off-road environments, aiding in obstacle detection, mapping, and path planning. Learning-based LiDAR semantic segmentation utilizes machine learning techniques to automatically classify objects and regions in LiDAR point clouds. Learning-based models struggle in off-road environments due to the presence of diverse objects with varying colors, textures, and undefined boundaries, which can lead to difficulties in accurately classifying and segmenting objects using traditional geometric-based features. In this paper, we address this problem by harnessing the LiDAR intensity parameter to enhance object segmentation in off-road environments. Our approach was evaluated in the RELLIS-3D data set and yielded promising results as a preliminary analysis with improved mIoU for classes "puddle" and "grass" compared to more complex deep learning-based benchmarks. The methodology was evaluated for compatibility across both Velodyne and Ouster LiDAR systems, assuring its cross-platform applicability. This analysis advocates for the incorporation of calibrated intensity as a supplementary input, aiming to enhance the prediction accuracy of learning based semantic segmentation frameworks. https://github.com/MOONLABIISERB/lidar-intensity-predictor/tree/main

The necessity of reducing fuel consumption and the increasing demands for lightweight vehicles have motivated the use of multi-material combinations. Dissimilar metals have been progressively introduced in different locations to optimize mechanical performance and strength-to-weight ratio. These new combinations of metals need to be joined, which presents a major challenge in conventional fusion welding. Since FSW does not involve bulk melting of the components, it is among the most convenient welding techniques for joining dissimilar materials. In this investigation, process parameters are optimized to produce friction stir lap welds between an aluminum alloy AA5083- H19 and a stainless steel 201LN 1⁄4 hard. For the welding procedure, a WC-25Co welding tool is used. The tool is rotated and penetrated through the aluminum alloy located on the top of the assembly. Key parameters considered to obtain an optimal process window include rotation speed, travel speed, surface and internal defects, lateral force and tool degradation. Microstructural characterization was done by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Tensile lap shear tests were conducted for mechanical property evaluation. Joints produced exhibit good mechanical properties with a tensile shear strength up to 500 N/mm of weld. During the FSW, a significant degradation of the tool was observed due to the combination of high welding temperatures and high material flow stress at the end of the pin tool, where the tool is in contact with the stainless steel. Tool wear was investigated by using 3D digital profilometry scans. Abrasion and adhesion were found to be the most dominant causes of wear.

We propose a simple microfluidic droplet generator for controlling the droplet size over a wide range. A  planar co-flow device was developed with controllable c- phase channel width using a deformable wall structure. The  design was benefited from the increased shear force due to the channel width decrease and controlled droplet size. The range of droplets sizes was boosted in the proposed device by 111% compared to the reported devices in the literature. Two distinct regimes were observed: dripping (at high and medium channel widths) and plug regimes (at low channel widths). Droplets were monodispersed in both regimes. Also, the effect of channel width on the droplet size at constant c-phase velocities and flow rates was investigated. The rate of change in droplet diameter was more at a constant flow rate compared to constant c-phase velocity.

description: We analyze the ordered phases of Bernal stacked multilayer graphene in the presence of interaction induced band gaps due to sublattice symmetry breaking potentials, whose solutions can be analyzed in terms of light-mass and heavy-mass pseudospin doublets which have the same Chern numbers but opposite charge polarization directions. The application of a perpendicular external electric field reveals an effective Hund's rule for the ordering of the sublattice pseudospin doublets in a tetralayer, while a similar but more complex phase diagram develops with increasing layer number.

Year: 2016

description: While topological quantum computation is intrinsically fault-tolerant at zero temperature, it loses its topological protection at any finite temperature. We present a scheme to protect the information stored in a system supporting non-cyclic anyons against thermal and measurement errors. The correction procedure builds on the work of Gács [Gacs 1986] and Harrington [Harrington 2004] and operates as a local cellular automaton. In contrast to previously studied schemes, our scheme is valid for both abelian and non-abelian anyons and accounts for measurement errors. We analytically prove the existence of a fault-tolerant threshold for a certain class of non-Abelian anyon models, and numerically simulate the procedure for the specific example of Ising anyons. The result of our simulations are consistent with a threshold between $10^{-4}$ and $10^{-3}$.

description: In systems with a real Bloch Hamiltonian band nodes can be characterised by a non-Abelian frame-rotation charge. The ability of these band nodes to annihilate pairwise is path dependent, since by braiding nodes in adjacent gaps the sign of their charges can be changed. Here, we theoretically construct and numerically confirm two concrete methods to experimentally probe these non-Abelian braiding processes and charges in ultracold atomic systems. We consider a coherent superposition of two bands that can be created by moving atoms through the band singularities at some angle in momentum space. Analyzing the dependency of excitations on the frame charges, we demonstrate an interferometry scheme passing through two band nodes, which reveals the relative frame charges and allows for measuring the multi-gap topological invariant. The second method relies on a single wavepacket probing two nodes sequentially, where the frame charges can be determined from the band populations. Our results present a feasible avenue for measuring non-Abelian charges of band nodes and the direct experimental verification of braiding procedures, which can be applied in a variety of settings including the recently discovered anomalous non-Abelian phases arising under periodic driving.

description: What is the power of polynomial-time quantum computation with access to an NP oracle? In this work, we focus on two fundamental tasks from the study of Boolean satisfiability (SAT) problems: search-to-decision reductions, and approximate counting. We first show that, in strong contrast to the classical setting where a poly-time Turing machine requires $Θ(n)$ queries to an NP oracle to compute a witness to a given SAT formula, quantumly $Θ(\log n)$ queries suffice. We then show this is tight in the black-box model - any quantum algorithm with "NP-like" query access to a formula requires $Ω(\log n)$ queries to extract a solution with constant probability. Moving to approximate counting of SAT solutions, by exploiting a quantum link between search-to-decision reductions and approximate counting, we show that existing classical approximate counting algorithms are likely optimal. First, we give a lower bound in the "NP-like" black-box query setting: Approximate counting requires $Ω(\log n)$ queries, even on a quantum computer. We then give a "white-box" lower bound (i.e. where the input formula is not hidden in the oracle) - if there exists a randomized poly-time classical or quantum algorithm for approximate counting making $o(log n)$ NP queries, then $\text{BPP}^{\text{NP}[o(n)]}$ contains a $\text{P}^{\text{NP}}$-complete problem if the algorithm is classical and $\text{FBQP}^{\text{NP}[o(n)]}$ contains an $\text{FP}^{\text{NP}}$-complete problem if the algorithm is quantum.

description: We establish the conjectured area-angular momentum-charge inequality for stable apparent horizons in the presence of a positive cosmological constant, and show that it is saturated precisely for extreme Kerr-Newman-de Sitter horizons. As with previous inequalities of this type, the proof is reduced to minimizing an `area functional' related to a harmonic map energy; in this case maps are from the 2-sphere to the complex hyperbolic plane. The proof here is simplified compared to previous results for less embellished inequalities, due to the observation that the functional is convex along geodesic deformations in the target.

description: For small bowel diseases, it is difficult for the ordinary enteroscopy to reach due to its specific curvature and length. Capsule endoscopy (CE) is a unique tool to visualize the mucosa of the small intestine. The aim of this study was to evaluate the detection rate and diagnostic yield of CE in a large group of patients with suspected digestive diseases in China. One hundred and two consecutive patients (75 male, mean age 50 years, range 32-87 years) underwent CE in our Gastroenterology Units, for a total of 102 procedures. Referrals were obscure occult/ overt gastrointestinal bleeding group (19 patients) and suspected small bowel disease group (83). In our study, the whole detection rate was 92 % (94/102), with a definite diagnosis yield of 63 % of the patients in the obscure gastrointestinal bleeding and 39 % of the patients in the suspected small bowel diseases. None of the patients developed symptoms of signs of mechanical obstruction, although the capsule was retained in the stomach in 2/102 patients for their somatostatin taken. CE seems to be a very safe, painless and effective procedure with a high diagnostic yield. Accurate selection of indications and critical evaluation of the results are essential to explore these diseases.

description: Soil moisture is a critical parameter in agriculture and weather forecasting, requiring continuous monitoring. Remote sensing radiometers offer a valuable tool for mapping soil moisture over large areas and developing comprehensive climate models when combined with other environmental measurements. Integrating multiple frequency bands, including L-band, Ku-band, and Ka-band, within a single system has the potential to provide high spatial resolution and deep penetration. The primary objective of this thesis is to design Ka-band phase shifters and integrate them into a Ka-band antenna array, creating a cost-effective and planar smart antenna array for soil moisture remote sensing applications.
Locating topological phase transitions using nonequilibrium signatures in local bulk observables

description: Topological quantum phases cannot be characterized by local order parameters in the bulk. In this work however, we show that signatures of a topological quantum critical point do remain in local observables in the bulk, and manifest themselves as non-analyticities in their expectation values taken over a family of non-equilibrium states generated using a quantum quench protocol. The signature can be used for precisely locating the critical points in parameter space. A large class of initial states can be chosen for the quench (including finite temperature states), the sufficient condition being existence of a finite occupation-gradient with respect to energy for the single-particle critical mode. We demonstrate these results in tractable models of non-interacting fermions exhibiting topological phase transitions in one and two spatial dimensions. We also show that the non-analyticities can be absent if the gap-closing is non-topological, i.e., when it corresponds to no phase transition.

description: The rise of generative artificial intelligence, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), has intensified the imperative to scrutinize fairness alongside accuracy. Recent studies have begun to investigate fairness evaluations for LLMs within domains such as recommendations. Given that personalization is an intrinsic aspect of recommendation systems, its incorporation into fairness assessments is paramount. Yet, the degree to which current fairness evaluation frameworks account for personalization remains unclear. Our comprehensive literature review aims to fill this gap by examining how existing frameworks handle fairness evaluations of LLMs, with a focus on the integration of personalization factors. Despite an exhaustive collection and analysis of relevant works, we discovered that most evaluations overlook personalization, a critical facet of recommendation systems, thereby inadvertently perpetuating unfair practices. Our findings shed light on this oversight and underscore the urgent need for more nuanced fairness evaluations that acknowledge personalization. Such improvements are vital for fostering equitable development within the AI community.

A New Ballistic Limit Equation For Hypervelocity Impact On Honeycomb-Core Sandwich Panels
Creators: Cherniaev, Aleksandr
Carriere, Riley
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2022

Parameters of the honeycomb core, such as cell size and foil thickness, as well a s the material of the core, influence the ballistic performance of honeycomb-core sandwich panels (HCSP) in the case of hypervelocity impact (HVI) by orbital debris. A dedicated ballistic limit equation (BLE) that accounts for this influence ha s been developed in this study. BLE fitting was conducted using a database composed of entries resulting from physical and numerical experiments. The new ballistic limit equation was based on the Whipple shield BLE, in which the standoff distance between the facesheets was replaced by a function of the honeycomb cell size, foil thickness, and yield strength of the HC material. The BLE demonstrated excellent accuracy in predicting the ballistic limits of HCSP, when tested against a new set of simulation data, with the discrepancy ranging from 1.13% to 5.58% only. The new BLE can be recommended for use in the design of spacecraft orbital debris shielding involving honeycomb-core sandwich panels.

description: Electromagnetic forming is a process used to produce high strain rates that improve the formability of sheet metal. The objective of this paper is to discuss the feasibility of the use of disposable actuators during electromagnetic forming of two aluminum components: an industry part whose main feature is a convex flange with two joggles, and a simple part with a one-dimensional curve throughout. The main forming complications after the parts were formed using conventional methods were the presence of wrinkles and excessive springback. The goal of this work is to use large, controlled electromagnetic impulses to minimize the springback of these components from a roughformed shape, with the end result being a dimensionally correct part. The optimum test protocols for electromagnetic calibration of the components were determined by optimizing parameters such as design of the actuator, tool material, and capacitor discharge energy. The use of disposable actuators for electromagnetic calibration of the parts showed significant reductions in springback compared to the parts which were only preformed using conventional techniques (hydroforming and rubber-pad forming). Springback was decreased in the curved component by up to 87%. For the flanged component, the wrinkles were eliminated, the joggles were formed properly, and the average bending angle of the part was improved from 95.3° to 90.3°, very near the target bending angle of 90°. This study demonstrates that these forming techniques can be used to improve current sheet metal production processes.

description: We apply a definition of generalised super Calabi-Yau variety (SCY) to supermanifolds of complex dimension one. One of our results is that there are two SCY's having reduced manifold equal to $\mathbb{P}^1$, namely the projective super space $\mathbb{P}^{1|2} $ and the weighted projective super space $\mathbb{WP}^{1|1}_{(2)}$. Then we compute the corresponding sheaf cohomology of superforms, showing that the cohomology with picture number one is infinite dimensional, while the de Rham cohomology, which is what matters from a physical point of view, remains finite dimensional. Moreover, we provide the complete real and holomorphic de Rham cohomology for generic projective super spaces $\mathbb P^{n|m}$. We also determine the automorphism groups: these always match the dimension of the projective super group with the only exception of $\mathbb{P}^{1|2} $, whose automorphism group turns out to be larger than the projective general linear supergroup. By considering the cohomology of the super tangent sheaf, we compute the deformations of $\mathbb{P}^{1|m}$, discovering that the presence of a fermionic structure allows for deformations even if the reduced manifold is rigid. Finally, we show that $\mathbb{P}^{1|2} $ is self-mirror, whereas $\mathbb{WP} ^{1|1}_{(2)}$ has a zero dimensional mirror. Also, the mirror map for $\mathbb{P}^{1|2}$ naturally endows it with a structure of $N=2$ super Riemann surface.

Creators: name: Leet, Sri-Kartini
Publisher: name: University of Kent

description: In the following thesis I seek to examine the significance of the photograph in relation to a series of issues which surround its status as both an arbiter of ‘the real’ and as an icon of personal memory and identity. Focussing upon a series of refugee experiences from various communities in London, I seek to explore the complexities of being ‘out-of-place’, and the experience of setting up a ‘home’ outside of one’s homeland. Therefore, my research involved my photographing the interiors of their newly-established homes, both in relation to their experience as displaced persons, and in the way a domestic space is set up (with particular focus on the ways in which visual imagery is used in a private context) as representations of their identities and sense of cultural belonging. At the same time, my photography of public spaces provided a visual analysis of the influence of ‘community’ (despite its ambiguous meanings) on identity formation. In turn, however, my photographic work implicated the way the photograph becomes part of a complex series of constructions which raise questions about private terms of reference, of space, and interpretation. Thus part of my theoretical discussion on the photographic image in terms of memory, nostalgia and the past, aspects which (as I suggest) question the usual terms of the photograph’s status as a record of the ‘real’, notably in relation to historical uses of the medium and the ‘documentary’ tradition. In these terms, the images depicted raise questions about their anthropological terms of reference and the ways in which meaning is both relative to and dependent upon the specific context in which the photograph is made, read, and used. Hence the significance of the refugee experience in relation to the making of meaning out of displacement, and the re-construction of ‘home’ based on this strange, split experience.

description: Статья посвящена исследованию конституционному праву граждан на судебную защиту в Кыргызской Республике. Политические и социально-экономические преобразования, произошедшие за последние годы в Кыргызской Республике, развитие рыночных отношений, конституционное закрепление частной, государственной, муниципальной и иных форм собственности, формированию гражданского общества обусловили серьезные изменения роли и значения многих традиционных правовых институтов. К числу таких важных, жизненно необходимых и имеющих глубокие исторические корни правовых институтов относится и институт судебной защиты прав человека и гражданина. Произошло последовательное внедрение в законодательство республики, как стандартов правосудия, так и гарантий реализации конституционного права на судебную защиту. Судебная система подвергается постоянному реформированию, принимаются государственные целевые программы, направленные на совершенствование и развитие судебной системы, устранение существующих недостатков с целью обеспечения реализации конституционного права на судебную защиту.

description: Emission of matter-wave jets from a parametrically driven condensate has attracted significant experimental and theoretical attention due to the appealing visual effects and potential metrological applications. In this work, we investigate the collective particle emission from a Bose-Einstein condensate confined in a one-dimensional lattice with periodically modulated interparticle interactions. We give the regimes for discrete modes, and find that the emission can be distinctly suppressed. The configuration induces a broad band, but few particles are ejected due to the interference of the matter waves. We further qualitatively model the emission process, and demonstrate the short-time behaviors. This engineering provides a way for manipulating the propagation of particles and the corresponding dynamics of condensates in lattices, and may find use in the dynamical excitation control of other nonequilibrium problems with time-periodic driving.

description: Ce travail aborde la question de la sexuation des compétences au secondaire II dans les disciplines particulièrement genrées que sont l’anglais et les mathématiques, sous un axe historique. En introduction, il traite des différences entre garçons et filles dans l’enseignement en général, et reprend les chiffres de recherches liées aux disciplines spécifiques que sont l’anglais et les mathématiques. Il présente ensuite dans le détail des programmes scolaires de quatre établissements du secondaire II lausannois (trois publics et un privé), de la fin du XIXe siècle au milieu du XXe siècle, à des époques où les établissements n’étaient pas mixtes et les programmes différents entre filles et garçons, le but étant de déceler si, aujourd’hui encore, des réminiscences de ces différentes peuvent encore se faire sentir et expliquer les inégalités entre filles et garçons en termes de préférences et de performances scolaires, puis d’orientation vers le tertiaire.

description: We report on the single-atom-resolved measurement of the distribution of momenta $\hbar k$ in a weakly interacting Bose gas after a 330 ms time-of-flight. We investigate it for various temperatures and clearly separate two contributions to the depletion of the condensate by their $k$-dependence. The first one is the thermal depletion. The second contribution falls of as $k^{-4}$, and its magnitude increases with the in-trap condensate density as predicted by the Bogoliubov theory at zero temperature. These observations suggest associating it with the quantum depletion. How this contribution can survive the expansion of the released interacting condensate is an intriguing open question.

description: We construct and investigate robust nonparametric tests for the two-sample location problem. A test based on a suitable scaling of the median of the set of differences between the two samples, which is the Hodges-Lehmann shift estimator corresponding to the Wilcoxon two-sample rank test, leads to higher robustness against outliers than the Wilcoxon test itself, while preserving its efficiency under a broad range of distributions. The good performance of the constructed test is investigated under different distributions and outlier configurations and compared to alternatives like the two-sample t-, the Wilcoxon and the median test, as well as to tests based on the difference of the sample medians or the one-sample Hodges- Lehmann estimators.

description: We explore connections between the generalized multiplicities of square-free monomial ideals and the combinatorial structure of the underlying hypergraphs using methods of commutative algebra and polyhedral geometry. For instance, we show the $j$-multiplicity is multiplicative over the connected components of a hypergraph, and we explicitly relate the $j$-multiplicity of the edge ideal of a properly connected uniform hypergraph to the Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity of its special fiber ring. In addition, we provide general bounds for the generalized multiplicities of the edge ideals and compute these invariants for classes of uniform hypergraphs.
