description: In this work we present a simulation of the semiconductor electrodes of photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting cells based on the nonequilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism. While the performance of simple PEC cells can be adequately explained with semi-classical drift-diffusion theory, the increasing interest towards thin film cells and nanostructures in general requires theoretical treatment that can capture the quantum phenomena influencing the charge carrier dynamics in these devices. Specifically, we study a p-type Cu2O electrode and examine the influence of the bias voltage, reaction kinetics and the thickness of the Cu2O layer on the generated photocurrent. The NEGF equations are solved in a self-consistent manner with the electrostatic potential from Poisson's equation, sunlight induced photon scattering and the chemical overpotential required to drive the water splitting reaction. We show that the NEGF simulation accurately reproduces experimental results from both voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy measurements, while providing an energy resolved solution of the charge carrier densities and corresponding currents inside the semiconductor electrode at nanoscale.

description: We develop a new approach to electron transport in mesoscopic systems by using a particular single-particle basis. Although this basis generates redundant many-particle amplitudes, it greatly simplifies the treatment. By using our method for transport of non-interacting electrons, we generalize the Landauer formula for transient currents and for time-dependent potentials. The result has a very simple form and clear physical interpretation. As an example, we apply it to resonant tunneling through a quantum dot where the tunneling barriers are oscillating in time. We obtain analytical expression for the time-dependent (ac) resonant current. However, in the adiabatic limit this expression displays the dc current for zero bias (electron pumping).

Cet ouvrage est donc destin� � faire conna�tre l?oeuvre th��trale de Laurent Mauvignier. Il le fait de deux mani�res : d?une part, en mettant � la disposition des lecteurs, dans une �dition bilingue, les traductions d?Alberto Bramati de "Tout mon amour" et de "Une l�g�re blessure" ; et d?autre part, en accompagnant ces traductions par six �tudes universitaires qui approfondissent la r�flexion sur une oeuvre qui est tout � la fois polygraphique, transg�n�rique et hybride, car elle met en cause l?identit� et la nature des genres dont elle s?empare. On ne saurait saisir l?oeuvre de Laurent Mauvignier en n�gligeant la dynamique d?une �criture qui, du roman au th��tre, retravaille les genres litt�raires. D?ailleurs, le lien entre les genres romanesque et dramatique est d?autant plus important que, comme le rappellent plusieurs articles pr�sents dans cet ouvrage, les romans de Laurent Mauvignier sont marqu�s par une �vidente forme de th��tralit�, en raison de leurs structures, de leurs dispositifs de langage et de leurs effets d?oralit�. Convaincus par cette th��tralit� des r�cits, de nombreux artistes de th��tre ont en effet song� � des adaptations sc�niques et pour certains les ont r�alis�es. Ainsi en publiant des pi�ces, Laurent Mauvignier semble donc, pour partie, accomplir une qualit� intrins�que de son �criture, d�j� pr�sente dans ses r�cits.
Algebraic Properties of Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem

Subjects: subject: Computational Complexity (cs.CC)

description: The paper presents an algebraic framework for optimization problems expressible as Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problems. Our results generalize the algebraic framework for the decision version (CSPs) provided by Bulatov et al. [SICOMP 2005]. We introduce the notions of weighted algebras and varieties and use the Galois connection due to Cohen et al. [SICOMP 2013] to link VCSP languages to weighted algebras. We show that the difficulty of VCSP depends only on the weighted variety generated by the associated weighted algebra. Paralleling the results for CSPs we exhibit a reduction to cores and rigid cores which allows us to focus on idempotent weighted varieties. Further, we propose an analogue of the Algebraic CSP Dichotomy Conjecture; prove the hardness direction and verify that it agrees with known results for VCSPs on two-element sets [Cohen et al. 2006], finite-valued VCSPs [Thapper and Zivny 2013] and conservative VCSPs [Kolmogorov and Zivny 2013].

Tuning the Robustness of Routing Information Diffusion with Multi-Point Relays

Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Trento
Year: 2017

description: Optimized Link State Routing is one of the most used routing protocol in wireless networks: static, mobile, ad- hoc, mesh, and even sensor networks. The selection of Multi-Point Relays (MPRs) to build a backbone for signalling traffic, which is often also used to route user traffic, is at the hearth of the protocol and its efficiency is crucial to the protocol efficiency as well as to the entire network topology management. Several heuristics exist that try to minimize the number of MPRs in order to reduce the overall signaling traffic. A recent one, called Selector Set Tie Breaker (SSTB) showed that the number of MPRs can be reduced to a few units in dense networks with hundreds of nodes. This greatly reduces the signaling traffic but also the redundancy of the information that is spread in the network. This paper investigates the consequences of the reduction of the number of MPRs on the robustness of the routing function and introduces a coefficient and a tuning parameter to influence it.

description: We examine gamification as a mean to handle Linked Data quality problems that are difficult to solve in an automated way. In particular, we look at the use of word games as a knowledge maintenance strategy that is cost-efficient and accurate in terms of the level of granularity of the errors to be fixed. We have classified the most common quality problems encountered in our knowledge base ? Entitypedia. Based on this classification, we have implemented a quality improvement methodology for knowledge maintenance that leverages on gamification. We empirically evaluated how this methodology could efficiently improve data quality in Entitypedia. The results show that gamification-enabled knowledge maintenance is a promising and affordable way to improve the quality of Linked Data. A subset of the games described in this paper can be played at Entitypedia Games web site1 1 Entitypedia Crosswords: http://games.entitypedia.org/crosswords/

description: We summarize the second radio synchrotron background workshop, which took place June 15-17, 2022 in Barolo, Italy. This meeting was convened because available measurements of the diffuse radio zero level continue to suggest that it is several times higher than can be attributed to known Galactic and extragalactic sources and processes, rendering it the least well understood electromagnetic background at present and a major outstanding question in astrophysics. The workshop agreed on the next priorities for investigations of this phenomenon, which include searching for evidence of the Radio Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect, carrying out cross-correlation analyses of radio emission with other tracers, and supporting the completion of the 310 MHz absolutely calibrated sky map project.

description: A stable-frequency transmitter with relative radial acceleration to a receiver will show a change in received frequency over time, known as a "drift rate''. For a transmission from an exoplanet, we must account for multiple components of drift rate: the exoplanet's orbit and rotation, the Earth's orbit and rotation, and other contributions. Understanding the drift rate distribution produced by exoplanets relative to Earth, can a) help us constrain the range of drift rates to check in a Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project to detect radio technosignatures and b) help us decide validity of signals-of-interest, as we can compare drifting signals with expected drift rates from the target star. In this paper, we modeled the drift rate distribution for $\sim$5300 confirmed exoplanets, using parameters from the NASA Exoplanet Archive (NEA). We find that confirmed exoplanets have drift rates such that 99\% of them fall within the $\pm$53 nHz range. This implies a distribution-informed maximum drift rate $\sim$4 times lower than previous work. To mitigate the observational biases inherent in the NEA, we also simulated an exoplanet population built to reduce these biases. The results suggest that, for a Kepler-like target star without known exoplanets, $\pm$0.44 nHz would be sufficient to account for 99\% of signals. This reduction in recommended maximum drift rate is partially due to inclination effects and bias towards short orbital periods in the NEA. These narrowed drift rate maxima will increase the efficiency of searches and save significant computational effort in future radio technosignature searches.

description: This paper explores the efforts amongst two indigenous populations, Native Americans and Māori to improve reading and literacy levels of children and young adults. Statistical surveys from the United States of America and New Zealand reveal that literacy rates for their indigenous peoples are significantly lower than the national averages. Although the two countries are vastly different in terms of size and educational structures, the issues related to literacy and reading are remarkably similar. This paper explores those similarities and outlines past and present initiatives for addressing the literacy and reading gap.

description: Dementia, a prevalent neurodegenerative condition, is a major manifestation of Alzheimer's disease (AD). As the condition progresses from mild to severe, it significantly impairs the individual's ability to perform daily tasks independently, necessitating the need for timely and accurate AD classification. Machine learning or deep learning models have emerged as effective tools for this purpose. In this study, we suggested an approach for classifying the four stages of dementia using RF, SVM, and CNN algorithms, augmented with watershed segmentation for feature extraction from MRI images. Our results reveal that SVM with watershed features achieves an impressive accuracy of 96.25%, surpassing other classification methods. The ADNI dataset is utilized to evaluate the effectiveness of our method, and we observed that the inclusion of watershed segmentation contributes to the enhanced performance of the models.

description: We present a computational model to study the spatiotemporal dynamics of the epidermis homeostasis under normal and pathological conditions. The model consists of a population kinetics model of the central transition pathway of keratinocyte proliferation, differentiation and loss and an agent-based model that propagates cell movements and generates the stratified epidermis. The model recapitulates observed homeostatic cell density distribution, the epidermal turnover time and the multilayered tissue structure. We extend the model to study the onset, recurrence and phototherapy-induced remission of psoriasis. The model considers the psoriasis as a parallel homeostasis of normal and psoriatic keratinocytes originated from a shared stem-cell niche environment and predicts two homeostatic modes of the psoriasis: a disease mode and a quiescent mode. Interconversion between the two modes can be controlled by interactions between psoriatic stem cells and the immune system and by the normal and psoriatic stem cells competing for growth niches. The prediction of a quiescent state potentially explains the efficacy of the multi-episode UVB irradiation therapy and recurrence of psoriasis plaques, which can further guide designs of therapeutics that specifically target the immune system and/or the keratinocytes.

description: The surface structure of converging thin fluid films displays self-similar behavior, as was shown in the work by Diez et al [Q. Appl. Math 210, 155, 1990]. Extracting the related similarity scaling exponents from either numerical or experimental data is non-trivial. Here we provide two such methods. We apply them to experimental and numerical data on converging fluid films driven by both surface tension and gravitational forcing. In the limit of pure gravitational driving, we recover Diez' semi-analytic result, but our methods also allow us to explore the entire regime of mixed capillary and gravitational driving, up to entirely surface tension driven flows. We find scaling forms of smoothly varying exponents up to surprisingly small Bond numbers. Our experimental results are in reasonable agreement with our numerical simulations, which confirm theoretically obtained relations between the scaling exponents.

description: High luminosity accelerators have greatly increased the interest in semi-exclusive and exclusive reactions involving nucleons. The relevant theoretical information is contained in the nucleon wavefunction and can be parametrized by moments of the nucleon distribution amplitudes, which in turn are linked to matrix elements of local three-quark operators. These can be calculated from first principles in lattice QCD. Defining an RI-MOM renormalization scheme, we renormalize three-quark operators corresponding to low moments non-perturbatively and take special care of the operator mixing. After performing a scheme matching and a conversion of the renormalization scale we quote our final results for the low moments of the nucleon distribution amplitude in the MS scheme at mu = 2GeV.

Die Momente sind wiederum mit Matrixelementen lokaler Dreiquark-Operatoren verknüpft. Letztere können from first principles in Gitter-QCD berechnet werden. Indem wir ein RI-MOM Renormierungsschema einführen, können wir Dreiquark-Operatoren nicht-störungstheoretisch renormieren, die niedrigen Momenten der Nukleon-Distributionsamplitude entsprechen. Dabei liegt ein spezieller Schwerpunkt auf der Operatormischung.

description: The main objective is to formulate solid lipid nanoparticles conjugated with cyclic RGDfk peptide encapsulated with gemcitabine hydrochloride drug for targeting breast cancer. The hydrophilic nature of gemcitabine hampers passive transport by cell membrane permeation that may lead to drug resistance as it has to enter the cells via nucleoside transporters. The art of encapsulating the drug in a nanovesicle and then anchoring it with a targeting ligand is one of the present areas of research in cancer chemotherapy. In this study, solid lipid nanoparticles were prepared by double emulsification and solvent evaporation method. Cyclic RGDfk and gemcitabine hydrochloride were used as targeting ligands and chemotherapeutic drugs, respectively, for targeting breast cancer. The prepared nanoparticles were evaluated for in vitro and in vivo performance to showcase the targeting efficiency and therapeutic benefits of the gemcitabine-loaded ligand conjugated nanoparticles. When compared with gemcitabine (GEM) and GEM loaded nanoparticles (GSLN), the ligand conjugated GEM nanoparticles (cGSLN) showed superior cytotoxicity, apoptosis, and inhibition of 3D multicellular spheroids in human breast cancer cells (MDA MB 231). The in vivo tumor regression studies in orthotopic breast cancer induced Balb/C mice showed that cGSLN displayed superior tumor suppression and also the targeting potential of the cGSLN toward induced breast cancer. Prepared nanoformulations showed enhanced anticancer activity in both 2D and 3D cell culture models along with antitumor efficacy in orthotopic breast cancer mouse models.

description: Relativistic contributions to the dynamics of structure formation come in a variety of forms, and can potentially give corrections to the standard picture on typical scales of 100 Mpc. These corrections cannot be obtained by Newtonian numerical simulations, so it is important to accurately estimate the magnitude of these relativistic effects. Density fluctuations couple to produce a background of gravitational waves, which is larger than any primordial background. A similar interaction produces a much larger spectrum of vector modes which represent the frame-dragging rotation of spacetime. These can change the metric at the percent level in the concordance model at scales below the equality scale. Vector modes modify the lensing of background galaxies by large-scale structure. This gives in principle the exciting possibility of measuring relativistic frame dragging effects on cosmological scales. The effects of the non-linear tensor and vector modes on the cosmic convergence are computed and compared to first-order lensing contributions from density fluctuations, Doppler lensing, and smaller Sachs-Wolfe effects. The lensing from gravitational waves is negligible so we concentrate on the vector modes. We show the relative importance of this for future surveys such as Euclid and SKA. We find that these non-linear effects only marginally affect the overall weak lensing signal so they can safely be neglected in most analyses, though are still much larger than the linear Sachs-Wolfe terms. The second-order vector contribution can dominate the first-order Doppler lensing term at moderate redshifts and are actually more important for survey geometries like the SKA.

La guerra come grande esperimento sociale: l?occasione sociolinguistica di Leo Spitzer
Creators: name: Baggio, Serenella
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Trento
Year: 2016

description: Scienze storiche e linguistica si incontrano in una fonte importante della Grande Guerra, le Lettere di prigionieri italiani di L. Spitzer. Nel contributo se ne analizzano temi e spunti metodologici ancora non completamente messi a frutto da chi studia le scritture popolari, non ultima la concezione di lingua popolare come lingua comune, Umgangsprache, derivata da H. Wunderlich. Anche la genesi del libro mostra intenzioni contraddittorie, in parte cambiate al momento della pubblicazione, e corrisponde ad un pi� generale interesse dell'intellettualit� tedesca ad approfittare della particolare contingenza bellica e del concentrazionismo nei campi di prigionia per sviluppare ricerche sociali orientate verso la psicologia dei popoli, l'antropologia fisica e culturale, con i moderni ausili tecnici all'elicitazione dei dati (registrazioni fonografiche, documentazione filmica e fotografica, inchieste metodiche finanziate con fondi statali e appoggiate a strutture militari).

description: A beautiful recent conjecture of D. Armstrong predicts the average size of a partition that is simultaneously an $s$-core and a $t$-core, where $s$ and $t$ are coprime. Our goal is to prove this conjecture when $t=s+1$. These simultaneous $(s,s+1)$-core partitions, which are enumerated by Catalan numbers, have average size $\binom{s+1}{3}/2$.

Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: General Finance (q-fin.GN)
subject: FOS: Economics and business

description: We give a simple explicit formula for turnover reduction when a large number of alphas are traded on the same execution platform and trades are crossed internally. We model turnover reduction via alpha correlations. Then, for a large number of alphas, turnover reduction is related to the largest eigenvalue and the corresponding eigenvector of the alpha correlation matrix.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Here I explore a novel no-collapse interpretation of quantum mechanics which combines aspects of two familiar and well-developed alternatives, Bohmian mechanics and the many-worlds interpretation. Despite reproducing the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics, the theory looks surprisingly classical. All there is at the fundamental level are particles interacting via Newtonian forces. There is no wave function. However, there are many worlds.

description: The present invention demonstrates a method of photodynamic inactivation of viruses having a membranous envelope, such as Herpes simplex type 1 and Human immunodeficiency type 1 viruses. The method uses substituted sapphyrin compounds to effect viral deactivation during radiation with light at or near the absorption wavelength of the sapphyrin compound. A highly reactive species selectively toxic to infectious agents is produced. One particular sapphyrin compound useful for the practice of the invention is 8,17-bis(carboxymethyl)-3,12,13,22-tetraethyl-2,7,18,23-tetramethylsapphyr in (Sapphyrin 2). The most preferred sapphyrin sapphyrin compound for the practice of the invention is 3,8,12,13,17,22-hexaethyl-2,7,18,23-tetramethylsapphyrin (Sapphyrin 1). The method is particularly suitable for inactivation of viruses in blood and blood products.

Special Snowflake

description: Scientists can press pause on cells in action by rapidly freezing them. The cells must be frozen incredibly quickly --within the blink of an eye. If the freezing process is too slow, the water inside (which makes up most of the cell) forms ice crystals.This microscopic image shows the very early stages of one such snowflake growing. If left to grow each of the six, symmetrical points would continue to branch out, developing into an intricate snowflake visible to the naked eye.In experiments like this one Whittaker and his lab freeze sea urchin cells by plunging them into liquid ethane. When frozen fast enough (and scientists avoid creating snowflakes), researchers can observe cells orchestrating the growth of skeletons. This helps us to understand biomineralization: the process of how bodies grow bones, teeth and other hard biological tissues.Department of Materials Science & EngineeringTools & Techniques: Scanning Electron Microscope + colored in Photoshop

description: We give a derivation of quantum spectral curve (QSC) - a finite set of Riemann-Hilbert equations for exact spectrum of planar N=4 SYM theory proposed in our recent paper Phys.Rev.Lett. 112 (2014). We also generalize this construction to all local single trace operators of the theory, in contrast to the TBA-like approaches worked out only for a limited class of states. We reveal a rich algebraic and analytic structure of the QSC in terms of a so called Q-system -- a finite set of Baxter-like Q-functions. This new point of view on the finite size spectral problem is shown to be completely compatible, though in a far from trivial way, with already known exact equations (analytic Y-system/TBA, or FiNLIE). We use the knowledge of this underlying Q-system to demonstrate how the classical finite gap solutions and the asymptotic Bethe ansatz emerge from our formalism in appropriate limits.

description: Cancer is increasingly perceived as a systems-level, network phenomenon. The major trend of malignant transformation can be described as a two-phase process, where an initial increase of network plasticity is followed by a decrease of plasticity at late stages of tumor development. The fluctuating intensity of stress factors, like hypoxia, inflammation and the either cooperative or hostile interactions of tumor inter-cellular networks, all increase the adaptation potential of cancer cells. This may lead to the bypass of cellular senescence, and to the development of cancer stem cells. We propose that the central tenet of cancer stem cell definition lies exactly in the indefinability of cancer stem cells. Actual properties of cancer stem cells depend on the individual "stress-history" of the given tumor. Cancer stem cells are characterized by an extremely large evolvability (i.e. a capacity to generate heritable phenotypic variation), which corresponds well with the defining hallmarks of cancer stem cells: the possession of the capacity to self-renew and to repeatedly re-build the heterogeneous lineages of cancer cells that comprise a tumor in new environments. Cancer stem cells represent a cell population, which is adapted to adapt. We argue that the high evolvability of cancer stem cells is helped by their repeated transitions between plastic (proliferative, symmetrically dividing) and rigid (quiescent, asymmetrically dividing, often more invasive) phenotypes having plastic and rigid networks. Thus, cancer stem cells reverse and replay cancer development multiple times. We describe network models potentially explaining cancer stem cell-like behavior. Finally, we propose novel strategies including combination therapies and multi-target drugs to overcome the Nietzschean dilemma of cancer stem cell targeting: "what does not kill me makes me stronger".
