description: Utility and risk are two often competing measurements on the investment success. We show that efficient trade-off between these two measurements for investment portfolios happens, in general, on a convex curve in the two dimensional space of utility and risk. This is a rather general pattern. The modern portfolio theory of Markowitz [H. Markowitz, Portfolio Selection, 1959] and its natural generalization, the capital market pricing model, [W. F. Sharpe, Mutual fund performance , 1966] are special cases of our general framework when the risk measure is taken to be the standard deviation and the utility function is the identity mapping. Using our general framework, we also recover the results in [R. T. Rockafellar, S. Uryasev and M. Zabarankin, Master funds in portfolio analysis with general deviation measures, 2006] that extends the capital market pricing model to allow for the use of more general deviation measures. This generalized capital asset pricing model also applies to e.g. when an approximation of the maximum drawdown is considered as a risk measure. Furthermore, the consideration of a general utility function allows to go beyond the "additive" performance measure to a "multiplicative" one of cumulative returns by using the log utility. As a result, the growth optimal portfolio theory [J. Lintner, The valuation of risk assets and the selection of risky investments in stock portfolios and capital budgets, 1965] and the leverage space portfolio theory [R. Vince, The Leverage Space Trading Model, 2009] can also be understood under our general framework. Thus, this general framework allows a unification of several important existing portfolio theories and goes much beyond.

description: Abstract: "Industrial quality is presented as a direct result of manufacturing practices (e.g. tolerance allocation, process selection, inspection procedures). A quality indicator is developed that allows for the computation of a function representing the cost of an industrial product versus its quality level. This cost function is then incorporated in an economic model that estimates the consumer's demand for the product as a function of both its price and quality level. The profit maximizing values of the price and quality level are derived, and in turn indicate the optimum production mode."

description: The M dwarf GJ 436 hosts a transiting warm Neptune known to experience atmospheric escape. Previous observations revealed the presence of a giant hydrogen exosphere transiting the star for more than 5 h, and absorbing up to 56% of the flux in the blue wing of the stellar Lyman-α line of neutral hydrogen (H i Lyα). The unexpected size of this comet-like exosphere prevented observing the full transit of its tail. In this Letter, we present new Lyα observations of GJ 436 obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) instrument onboard the Hubble Space Telescope. The stability of the Lyα line over six years allowed us to combine these new observations with archival data sets, substantially expanding the coverage of the exospheric transit. Hydrogen atoms in the tail of the exospheric cloud keep occulting the star for 10-25 h after the transit of the planet, remarkably confirming a previous prediction based on 3D numerical simulations with the EVaporating Exoplanet code (EVE). This result strengthens the interpretation that the exosphere of GJ 436b is shaped by both radiative braking and charge exchanges with the stellar wind. We further report flux decreases of 15 +/- 2% and 47 +/- 10% in the red wing of the Lyα line and in the line of ionised silicon (Si iii). Despite some temporal variability possibly linked with stellar activity, these two signals occur during the exospheric transit and could be of planetary origin. Follow-up observations will be required to assess the possibility that the redshifted Lyα and Si iii absorption signatures arise from interactions between the exospheric flow and the magnetic field of the star.

description: Inelastic neutron scattering measurements are reported for a powder sample of the spin-1/2 quantum paramagnet $\rm Cu(Quinoxaline)Br_2$. Magnetic neutron scattering is identified above an energy gap of 1.9 meV. Analysis of the sharp spectral maximum at the onset indicates that the material is magnetically quasi-one-dimensional. Consideration of the wave vector dependence of the scattering and polymeric structure further identifies the material as a two-legged spin-1/2 ladder. Detailed comparison of the data to various models of magnetism in this material based on the single mode approximation and the continuous unitary transformation are presented. The latter theory provides an excellent account of the data with leg exchange $J_{\parallel}=2.0$ meV and rung exchange $J_{\perp}=3.3$ meV.

description: Educators have observed that our college graduates are not equipped with the complex problem-solving skills to contribute to the many challenges of industry and other professional contexts. This paper describes an experiential problem-based multifaceted instructional design and teaching model at the New York University School of Professional Studies, developed by instructional design and technological experts. The model combines traditional instructional design, evidence-based strategies, and learning theories for development of student critical thinkers who can transfer their new knowledge and capabilities to industry and various other professional contexts. This model includes unique faculty and student orientations and guides, students as active contributors, instructors as facilitators, and collaborative projects. Student surveys of four cohorts (68 students) over four academic quarters indicated strong positive results. Students practiced through experiential problem-based learning and thereby learned critical and creative thinking that increased their communication skills. The program, to continue through New York University, can also be adapted for professionally-oriented education degrees, certifications, and lifelong learning courses.

description: We propose a novel method for the extraction of unresolved point sources from CMB maps. This method is based on the analysis of the phase distribution of the Fourier components for the observed signal and unlike most other methods of denoising does not require any significant assumptions about the expected CMB signal. The aim of our paper is to show how, using our algorithm, the contribution from point sources can be separated from the resulting signal on all scales. We believe that this technique is potentially a very powerful tool for extracting this type of noise from future high resolution maps.

A generalization of the central limit theorem consistent with nonextensive statistical mechanics

description: The standard central limit theorem plays a fundamental role in Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical mechanics. This important physical theory has been generalized \cite{Tsallis1988} in 1988 by using the entropy $S_q = \frac{1-\sum_i p_i^q}{q-1}$ (with $q \in \mathcal{R}$) instead of its particular BG case $S_1=S_{BG}= -\sum_i p_i \ln p_i$. The theory which emerges is usually referred to as {\it nonextensive statistical mechanics} and recovers the standard theory for $q=1$. During the last two decades, this $q$-generalized statistical mechanics has been successfully applied to a considerable amount of physically interesting complex phenomena. A conjecture\cite{Tsallis2005} and numerical indications available in the literature have been, for a few years, suggesting the possibility of $q$-versions of the standard central limit theorem by allowing the random variables that are being summed to be strongly correlated in some special manner, the case $q=1$ corresponding to standard probabilistic independence. This is what we prove in the present paper for $1 \leq q<3$. The attractor, in the usual sense of a central limit theorem, is given by a distribution of the form $p(x) =C_q [1-(1-q) βx^2]^{1/(1-q)}$ with $β>0$, and normalizing constant $C_q$. These distributions, sometimes referred to as $q$-Gaussians, are known to make, under appropriate constraints, extremal the functional $S_q$ (in its continuous version). Their $q=1$ and $q=2$ particular cases recover respectively Gaussian and Cauchy distributions.

description: Phone sensors could be useful in assessing changes in gait that occur with alcohol consumption. This study determined (1) feasibility of collecting gait-related data during drinking occasions in the natural environment, and (2) how gait-related features measured by phone sensors relate to estimated blood alcohol concentration (eBAC). Ten young adult heavy drinkers were prompted to complete a 5-step gait task every hour from 8pm to 12am over four consecutive weekends. We collected 3-xis accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer data from phone sensors, and computed 24 gait-related features using a sliding window technique. eBAC levels were calculated at each time point based on Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) of alcohol use. We used an artificial neural network model to analyze associations between sensor features and eBACs in training (70% of the data) and validation and test (30% of the data) datasets. We analyzed 128 data points where both eBAC and gait-related sensor data was captured, either when not drinking (n=60), while eBAC was ascending (n=55) or eBAC was descending (n=13). 21 data points were captured at times when the eBAC was greater than the legal limit (0.08 mg/dl). Using a Bayesian regularized neural network, gait-related phone sensor features showed a high correlation with eBAC (Pearson's r > 0.9), and >95% of estimated eBAC would fall between -0.012 and +0.012 of actual eBAC. It is feasible to collect gait-related data from smartphone sensors during drinking occasions in the natural environment. Sensor-based features can be used to infer gait changes associated with elevated blood alcohol content.

description: In this paper, we use a scale model to experimentally validate an indirect approach to bridge structural health monitoring (SHM). In contrast to a traditional direct monitoring approach with sensors placed on a bridge, the indirect approach uses instrumented vehicles to collect data about the bridge. Indirect monitoring could offer a mobile, sustainable, and economical complementary solution to the traditional direct bridge SHM approach. Acceleration signals were collected from a vehicle and bridge system in a laboratory-scale experiment for four different bridge scenarios and five speeds. These signals were classified using a simple short-time Fourier transform technique meant to detect shifts in the fundamental frequency of the bridge due to changes in the bridge condition. Results show near-perfect detection of changes when this technique is applied to signals collected from the bridge (direct monitoring), and promising levels of detection when one uses signals from sensors on the vehicle (indirect monitoring) instead of those recorded on the bridge itself.

description: Graphene possesses remarkable electronic, optical and mechanical properties that have taken the research of two-dimensional relativistic condensed matter systems to prolific levels. However, the understanding of how its nonlinear optical properties are affected by relativistic-like effects has been broadly uncharted. It has been recently shown that highly-nontrivial currents can be generated in free-standing samples, notably leading to the generation of even harmonics. Since graphene monolayers are centrosymmetric media, for which such harmonic generation is deemed inaccessible, this light-driven phenomenon is both startling and promising. More realistically, graphene samples are often deposited on a dielectric substrate, leading to additional intricate interactions. Here, we present a treatment to study this instance by gapping the spectrum and we show this leads to the appearance of a Berry phase in the carrier dynamics. We analyse the role of such a phase in the generated nonlinear current and conclude that it suppresses odd-harmonic generation. The pump energy can be tuned to the energy gap to yield interference among odd harmonics mediated by interband transitions, allowing even harmonics to be generated. Our results and general methodology pave the way for understanding the role of gap-opening physical factors in the nonlinear optics of hexagonal two-dimensional lattices.

description: We study the polarization of light emitted by spatially correlated sources. We show that in general polarization acquires nontrivial spectral dependence due to spatial correlations. The spectral dependence is found to be absent only for a special class of sources where the correlation length scales as the wavelength of light. We further study the cross correlations between two spatially distinct points that are generated due to propagation. It is found that such cross correlation leads to sufficiently strong spectral dependence of polarization which can be measured experimentally.

Detection of Low-energy Breaks in Gamma-Ray Burst Prompt Emission Spectra

description: The radiative process responsible for gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) prompt emission has not been identified yet. If dominated by fast-cooling synchrotron radiation, the part of the spectrum immediately below the $νF_ν$ peak energy should display a power-law behavior with slope $α_2=-3/2$, which breaks to a higher value $α_1=-2/3$ (i.e. to a harder spectral shape) at lower energies. Prompt emission spectral data (usually available down to $\sim10-20\,$keV) are consistent with one single power-law behavior below the peak, with typical slope $\langleα\rangle=-1$, higher than (and then inconsistent with) the expected value $α_2=-3/2$. To better characterize the spectral shape at low energy, we analyzed 14 GRBs for which the Swift X-ray Telescope started observations during the prompt. When available, Fermi-GBM observations have been included in the analysis. For 67% of the spectra, models that usually give a satisfactory description of the prompt (e.g., the Band model) fail in reproducing the $0.5-1000\,$keV spectra: low-energy data outline the presence of a spectral break around a few keV.We then introduce an empirical fitting function that includes a low-energy power law $α_1$, a break energy $E_{\rm break}$, a second power law $α_2$, and a peak energy $E_{\rm peak}$. We find $\langleα_1\rangle=-0.66$ ($ \rm σ=0.35$), $\langle \log (E_{\rm break}/\rm keV)\rangle=0.63$ ($ \rm σ=0.20$), $\langleα_2\rangle=-1.46$ ($\rm σ=0.31$), and $\langle \log (E_{\rm peak}/\rm keV)\rangle=2.1$ ($ \rm σ=0.56$).The values $\langleα_1\rangle$ and $\langleα_2\rangle$ are very close to expectations from synchrotron radiation. In this context, $E_{\rm break}$ corresponds to the cooling break frequency.

description: Ultracold gases offer an unprecedented opportunity to engineer disorder and interactions in a controlled manner. In an effort to understand the interplay between disorder, dipolar interaction and quantum degeneracy, we study two-dimensional hard-core dipolar lattice bosons in the presence of on-site bound disorder. Our results are based on large-scale path-integral quantum Monte Carlo simulations by the Worm algorithm. We study the ground state phase diagram at fixed half-integer filling factor for which the clean system is either a superfluid at lower dipolar interaction strength or a checkerboard solid at larger dipolar interaction strength. We find that, even for weak dipolar interaction, superfluidity is destroyed in favor of a Bose glass at relatively low disorder strength. Interestingly, in the presence of disorder, superfluidity persists for values of dipolar interaction strength for which the clean system is a checkerboard solid. At fixed disorder strength, as the dipolar interaction is increased, superfluidity is destroyed in favor of a Bose glass. As the interaction is further increased, the system eventually develops extended checkerboard patterns in the density distribution. Due to the presence of disorder, though, grain boundaries and defects, responsible for a finite residual compressibility, are present in the density distribution. Finally, we study the robustness of the superfluid phase against thermal fluctuations.

description: The traffic control systems currently used in rail transportation are heavily infrastructure-based and therefore very costly. This work proposes a biologically inspired solution for the coordination of trains in dense railway networks, avoiding collisions with considerably higher cost efficiency than the state of the art solutions. This solution does not require track mounted infrastructure, instead it relies on the continuous cooperation between trains. Inspired by self-organizing biological systems, two simple algorithms are proposed for managing points of conflict or switches where the right of way or priority of trains has to be carefully handled. The first-level algorithm avoids local collisions by the exchange of status information through beacons. The second-level algorithm uses one-hop or multi-hop communication to share the network status among trains and coordinates the trains in possible conflict zones around switches or in shunting yards. The proposed solution can decrease the signalling cost ofrailway transport substantially. This efficient approach can significantly reduce the probability of accidents caused by human and hardware errors. In addition, the proposed approach can lead to significant time and energy savings in railway transport. The biologically inspired solution proposed in this paper might lead to a paradigm shift in the signalling system used in rail transportation.

 Remarks. This species has not been reliably identified in collections. Based on its original description as a small species (ca 6 mm long) with orange pronotum, dark brown elytra, and V7 trilobed Ballantyne (1987a:131) considered that Pteroptyx antennata Olivier could have been based on similar specimens. No reference to ruficollis mentions deflexed elytral apices in the male. The described ventral colouration of yellowish thorax and abdomen is approached by Australoluciola australis which lacks a trisinuate V7.
This species has been attributed to Guérin-Méneville (1830). The actual publication date of this work was 1838, and the species is here attributed to Boisduval (1835) as the first description to be associated with the name.

description: Atresia coli is a congenital abnormality in cattle that is lethal without surgical correction. Although the condition has been reported predominantly in the Holstein-Friesian breed, the inheritance of atresia coli remains controversial and not completely understood. A systematic review of published cases and hospital-based case-control study were undertaken to evaluate breed as a risk factor for atresia coli in cattle, and to determine the best method for surgical management. Systematic review of 37 published studies indicated that atresia coli has been diagnosed in 10 cattle breeds and 12 countries, with the marked preponderance of cases occurring in Holstein-Friesian calves. Epidemiologic analysis indicated that Holstein-Friesian cattle were at significantly greater risk for the condition than all other dairy cattle breeds (P < 0.0001) and all other cattle breeds (P < 0.0001). Atresia coli probably occurs secondary to vascular insufficiency of the developing colon in calves. Holstein-Friesian cattle are predisposed to atresia coli, probably because their developing colon grows at a faster rate and/or to a greater extent than that in other cattle breeds. Early or vigorous palpation per rectum of the amniotic vesicle appears to increase the risk of atresia coli in a predisposed fetus, probably through palpation-induced damage to the rapidly developing colonic vasculature. Surgical correction of atresia coli had a poor overall success rate (short term survival rate was <50%) and long term survival rate (<35%). Because of the poor survival rate, expense, and potential for propagation of a genetic defect, definitive surgical correction should not be routinely performed on affected Holstein-Friesian calves.

The representation theory of this gauge group forces us to work in a deformed Lie algebra as well. This deformation rests on a twisted Hopf algebra, thus we can represent a twisted Hopf algebra on deformed spaces. That leads to the construction of Lagrangian invariant under a twisted Lie algebra.

description: The modified ISO 6579:1993 method was used to examine in parallel the presence of Salmonella in 4579 individual faecal samples and 210 pooled samples from 130 herds of cattle. 25 clinically or subclinically S. infantis-infected herds were detected. Positive herds were examined once a month for 7 months. 112 pooled samples and individual samples, respectively, were negative. 88 pooled samples were Salmonella-positive. Ten negative pooled samples contained faeces from animals which were found to be Salmonella-positive in individual sampling. Nine of these false negative pooled samples contained faeces from more than 20 animals and all contained relatively few Salmonella-positive animals. These results indicated that Salmonella was reliably detected in pooled faecal samples of a maximum of 20 animals (Kappa test 0.98).

description: A single graphene layer exhibits an anomalous Landau level spectrum. A massless Dirac like low energy electronic spectrum underlies this anomaly. We study, analytically and numerically, the effect of a uniform electric field $(E)$ on the anomalous Landau levels. We solve the problem exactly within the Dirac cone approximation and find an interesting scaling of the spectrum, leading to the collapse of the Landau levels at a critical $E_c(B)$, for a given magnetic field $B$. We offer a physical interpretation of our result, which uses `graphene relativity' and the boost operation. Electric fields, non-uniform at nanoscopic ($\sim l_c$, magnetic) length scales, produce local collapse at $E < E_c$. We expect an anomalous breakdown of quantum Hall states in real graphene, induced by large Hall currents.

description: A retrospective epidemiological study was undertaken of 78,445 male cattle that entered a 24,000- head feedlot in western Canada from 1991 to 1993 to determine if an association existed between sickness, mortality, and bullers. Animal health records for bullers were collected and analysed to see if they were at greater risk of sickness and mortality than other steers, and to see if pens with a high prevalence of bullers also had a high prevalence of sickness and mortality. The prevalence of bullers increased with increasing age of cattle on arrival at the feedlot (R = 0.36; P < 0.001). Sickness and mortality decreased with increasing age of cattle on arrival. However, sickness and mortality in bullers relative to other steers actually increased with increasing age on arrival suggesting an interaction existed between sickness and bullers. Bullers were significantly (P < 0.05) more likely to get sick and to die than other steers. In all cases, there was a strong temporal association between sickness and bullers, with sickness and bullers mostly occurring within the first 30 days of the feeding period. On average, pens of cattle with a high prevalence of bullers did not have a correspondingly high prevalence of sickness or mortality. Sickness would appear to be an effect modifier of dominance behaviour and therefore bullers in feedlot steers. Bullers should always be checked for signs of sickness and treated accordingly. Further research is needed to investigate the effects of sickness on dominance behaviour in pens of feedlot cattle.

description: Despite prophylactic measures, mainly including vaccination programs and management measures, respiratory disease remains the major cause of economic losses in the bovine species. Choice of treatment is currently mainly based on the clinicians? personal experience. A theoretical method has been proposed earlier to classify this syndrome into four grades of severity: Grade 1, subclinical disease (no treatment); Grade 2, compensated clinical disease (antibiotics only); Grade 3, noncompensated clinical disease (antibiotics + antiinflammatory drugs); and Grade 4, irreversible clinical disease (no treatment). In order to realize this theoretical classification under field conditions, three techniques, each one evaluating the oxygen transport chain at a different level, have been studied and validated, i.e. pulse oximetry, lactate dosage and the lobeline test. Afterwards, measurements were performed on calves suffering from acute respiratory disease and a preliminary classification was established. This novel approach could orientate and economize therapeutic strategies in bovine respiratory disease.

description: Developing routing protocols for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) is a significant challenge in these large, self-organized and distributed networks. We address this challenge by studying VANETs from a network science perspective to develop solutions that act locally but influence the networkperformance globally. More specifically, we look at snapshots from highway and urban VANETs of different sizes and vehicle densities, and study parameters such as the node degree distribution, the clustering coefficient and the average shortest path length, in order to better understand the networks' structure and compare it to structures commonly found in large real world networks such as small-world and scale-free networks. We then show how to use this information to improve existing VANETprotocols. As an illustrative example, it is shown that, by adding new mechanisms that make use of this information, the overhead of the urban vehicular broadcasting (UV-CAST) protocol can be reduced substantially with no significant performance degradation.
Bouncing universe of entropy-corrected Friedmann equations

description: The investigation of quantum gravity effects in order to avoid the big bang singularity is a requisite, so that the idea of oscillating universes is introduced as an alternative for standard cosmological model. Therefore, the Friedmann equations arising from the quantum corrections of entropy-area relation provide the possibility of studying the oscillating universes. Addition to necessity of surveying the bouncing solutions, however, the values of unknown constant parameters are still a matter of open debate. In this paper, we consider modified Friedmann equations with logarithmic entropy corrected to evaluate singular-free cosmology solutions for any value of so- called constant pre-factors and all kinds of curved universes. The results are argued using the dynamical system techniques and by employing the phase plane analysis for full classification of the nonsingular evolutions.

description: Three reproductive management systems designed to use prostaglandin F2α (PGF) to save labor needed for estrous detection and artificial insemination (AI) were compared to conventional dairy herd reproductive management to evaluate their potential to maintain herd reproductive performance. The four experimental groups were: (1) CONTROL = daily estrous detection for AI with no PGF intervention, (2) Appointment (APPT) AI = double PGF injection at a 12-day interval followed by single appointment AI at 72 hrs for first AI, with repeat AI based on estrous detection, (3) 7-DAY = weekly (Monday) PGF injection for all cows ready for first or repeat AI with AI based on estrous detection which occurred only four days (Wednesday through Saturday) of each week, and (4) 21-DAY = repeating 21-day blocks of 13 days of AI based on estrous detection with PGF given on day 8 to cows yet to be inseminated and 8 days with no estrous detection or AI. All cows in all groups became eligible for breeding after a voluntary waiting period (VWP) of 54 days.

description: Tracking movement of mobile nodes has received significant scientific and commercial interest, but long term tracking of resource-constrained mobile nodes remains challenging due to the high energy consumption of satellite receivers. Cooperative position tracking has been proposed for energy efficiency, however, all the cooperative schemes use opportunistic cooperation and optimize for either energy or accuracy. Considering the existence of a reasonably stable group of mobile nodes like animals, birds, and mobile assets, we propose a cluster-based cooperative tracking algorithm, where cluster head centrally coordinates resource usage among cluster members. Variants of this strategy include the use of a cooperative Kalman filter with and without inertial sensor inputs to estimate nodes positions. We use the Boid flocking algorithm to generate group position movements in 3D and perform various experiments to compare the energy and position accuracy tradeoff of our proposed scheme with individual-based tracking and existing cooperative schemes. We perform the experiments for fixed periodic GPS sampling and dynamic GPS sampling triggered by node position error uncertainty tolerance limit. Experiments results show that in periodic sampling scheme cooperative tracking yields more than one-quarter reduction in energy consumption and more than one-third improvement in position accuracy over individual-based tracking, however, results for dynamic sampling scheme are comparable with existing cooperative scheme.

description: Strong electric fields are known to create biased adatom migration on metallic surfaces. We present a Kinetic Monte Carlo model that can simulate adatom migration on a tungsten (W) surface in electric fields. We validate our model by using it to calculate the drift velocity of the adatom at different fields and temperature and comparing the results with experimental data from the literature. We obtain excellent agreement.

description: A phenomenological explanation is presented for the physics of aberration, which is in contrast with special relativity physics. The effect of relativity is identified with an effect due to the velocity of observation being affected by the velocity of a moving particle. In contrast with the currently accepted view, it is demonstrated that the classical concepts of time and simultaneity are natural for describing relativistic phenomena.
