Anyonic self-induced disorder in a stabilizer code: quasi-many body localization in a translational invariant model

description: We enquire into the quasi-many-body localization in topologically ordered states of matter, revolving around the case of Kitaev toric code on ladder geometry, where different types of anyonic defects carry different masses induced by environmental errors. Our study verifies that random arrangement of anyons generates a complex energy landscape solely through braiding statistics, which suffices to suppress the diffusion of defects in such multi-component anyonic liquid. This non-ergodic dynamic suggests a promising scenario for investigation of quasi-many-body localization. Computing standard diagnostics evidences that, in such disorder-free many-body system, a typical initial inhomogeneity of anyons gives birth to a glassy dynamics with an exponentially diverging time scale of the full relaxation. A by-product of this dynamical effect is manifested by the slow growth of entanglement entropy, with characteristic time scales bearing resemblance to those of inhomogeneity relaxation. This setting provides a new platform which paves the way toward impeding logical errors by self-localization of anyons in a generic, high energy state, originated in their exotic statistics.

title: Probabilistic methods for land cover change detection
Creators: name: Olding, WC
Publisher: name: University of Tasmania
Year: 2019

description: One of the most powerful tools we possess for global scale monitoring of the surface of the earth are spacebourne remote sensing satellites. Every day they capture vast amounts of data at different spatial, spectral and temporal resolutions which must be processed in order to generate meaningful insights. This thesis focuses on the particular problem of detecting if and when a particular region of land cover experiences a change from one type to another. This problem is made difficult by the fact that the majority of land cover on earth, especially vegetated, undergoes natural variations on both annual and inter-annual time scales driven by changes in season and climate. In this thesis we argue that the key to detecting unnatural changes as accurately and rapidly as possible is to do so with respect to a probabilistic model of the natural variations estimated for the particular region of interest. A method each for change detection, change point estimation and online change monitoring are proposed that follow this strategy. These methods are evaluated on reflectance time series from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) for two change detection problems, detecting unplanned settlement expansion in South Africa and detecting deforestation of protected areas in Australia. In each case the proposed methods are shown to be effective and require little human supervision suggesting that this approach has potential for use in production systems.

Light bending, static dark energy and related uniqueness of Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Since the Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime is static inside the cosmological event horizon, if the dark energy state parameter is sufficiently close to $-1$, apparently one could still expect an effectively static geometry, in the attraction dominated region inside the maximum turn around radius, $R_{\rm TA, max}$, of a cosmic structure. We take the first order metric derived recently assuming a static and ideal dark energy fluid with equation of state $P(r)=αρ(r)$ as a source in Ref. [1], which reproduced the expression for $R_{\rm TA, max}$ found earlier in the cosmological McVittie spacetime. Here we show that the equality originates from the equivalence of geodesic motion in these two backgrounds, in the non-relativistic regime. We extend this metric up to the third order and compute the bending of light using the Rindler-Ishak method. For $ α\neq -1$, a dark energy dependent term appears in the bending equation, unlike the case of the cosmological constant, $α=-1$. Due to this new term in particular, existing data for the light bending at galactic scales yields, $(1+α)\lesssim {\cal O}(10^{-14})$, thereby practically ruling out any such static and inhomogeneous dark energy fluid we started with. Implication of this result pertaining the uniqueness of the Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime in such inhomogeneous dark energy background is discussed.

Visualizing genomic characteristics across an RNA-Seq based reference landscape of normal and neoplastic brain
Creators: name: Arora, Sonali
Publisher: name: F1000 Research Limited
Year: 2023

description: In order to better understand the relationship between normal and neoplastic brain, we combined five publicly available large-scale datasets, correcting for batch effects and applying Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP) to RNA-Seq data. We assembled a reference Brain-UMAP including 702 adult gliomas, 802 pediatric tumors and 1409 healthy normal brain samples, which can be utilized to investigate the wealth of information obtained from combining several publicly available datasets to study a single organ site. Normal brain regions and tumor types create distinct clusters and because the landscape is generated by RNA-Seq, comparative gene expression profiles and gene ontology patterns are readily evident. To our knowledge, this is the first meta-analysis that allows for comparison of gene expression and pathways of interest across adult gliomas, pediatric brain tumors, and normal brain regions. We provide access to this resource via the open source, interactive online tool Oncoscape, where the scientific community can readily visualize clinical metadata, gene expression patterns, gene fusions, mutations, and copy number patterns for individual genes and pathway over this reference landscape. In the era where a bunch of single cell atlas's are being used to understand development, this study highlights how we can quickly download uniformly processed data ( using bioconductor and recount 2), and explore publicly available datasets to explore and understand cancer.

description: NCRL subject guide ; 2024-02
description: The sunflower sea star (Pycnopodia helianthoides) is a large sea star and fills the role of a keystone mesopredator. It is native to waters of the Pacific coast, from Alaska, through British Columbia and the West Coast of the U.S., and into northern Mexico. This species exhibits top-down predatory control of kelp predators in these regions. Prior to 2013, the global population of P. helianthoides was estimated to be in the billions. Since then, it is estimated that sea star wasting syndrome (SSWS), also called sea star wasting disease (SSWD), has eradicated over 90% of the population. In some  areas these losses are estimated to be over 98%. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Alaska Regional Office initiated a literature review on P. helianthoides with the NOAA Central Library in 2023. This bibliography is intended as a reference resource for staff within NMFS Alaska Regional  Office, Protected Resources Division, who are conducting Endangered Species Act (ESA) Section 7 consultations that involve this, and other, species.

description: We experimentally study a vacuum-induced Autler-Townes doublet in a superconducting three-level artificial atom strongly coupled to a coplanar waveguide resonator and simultaneously to a transmission line. The Autler-Townes splitting is observed in the reflection spectrum from the three-level atom in a transition between the ground state and the second excited state when the transition between the two excited states is resonant with a resonator. By applying a driving field to the resonator, we observe a change in the regime of the Autler-Townes splitting from quantum (vacuum-induced) to classical (with many resonator photons). Furthermore, we show that the reflection of propagating microwaves in a transmission line could be controlled by different frequency single photons in a resonator.

description: We construct a low energy effective theory of anisotropic fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states. We develop a formalism similar to that used in the bi-metric approach to massive gravity, and apply it to describe abelian anisotropic FQH states in the presence of external electromagnetic and geometric backgrounds. We derive a relationship between the shift, the Hall viscosity, and a new quantized coupling to anisotropy, which we term "anisospin". We verify this relationship by numerically computing the Hall viscosity for a variety of anisotropic quantum Hall states using the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG). Finally, we apply these techniques to the problem of nematic order and clarify certain disagreements that exist in the literature about the meaning of the coefficient of the Berry phase term in the nematic effective action.

description: We analyze the dynamics of fast electrons in plasmas containing partially ionized impurity atoms, where the screening effect of bound electrons must be included. We derive analytical expressions for the deflection and slowing-down frequencies, and show that they are increased significantly compared to the results obtained with complete screening, already at sub-relativistic electron energies. Furthermore, we show that the modifications to the deflection and slowing down frequencies are of equal importance in describing the runaway current evolution. Our results greatly affect fast-electron dynamics and have important implications, e.g. for the efficacy of mitigation strategies for runaway electrons in tokamak devices, and energy loss during relativistic breakdown in atmospheric discharges.

description: Let $Ω$ be a Polish space with Borel $σ$-field $\mathcal{F}$ and countably generated sub $σ$-field $\mathcal{G}\subset\mathcal{F}$. Denote by $\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{F})$ the set of all bounded $\mathcal{F}$-upper semianalytic functions from $Ω$ to the reals and by $\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{G})$ the subset of $\mathcal{G}$-upper semianalytic functions. Let $\mathcal{E}(\cdot|\mathcal{G})\colon\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{F})\to\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{G})$ be a sublinear increasing functional which leaves $\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{G})$ invariant. It is shown that there exists a $\mathcal{G}$-analytic set-valued mapping $\mathcal{P}_{\mathcal{G}}$ from $Ω$ to the set of probabilities which are concentrated on atoms of $\mathcal{G}$ with compact convex values such that $\mathcal{E}(X|\mathcal{G})(ω)=$ $\sup_{P\in\mathcal{P}_{\mathcal{G}}(ω)} E_P[X]$ if and only if $\mathcal{E}(\cdot |\mathcal{G})$ is pointwise continuous from below and continuous from above on the continuous functions. Further, given another sublinear increasing functional $\mathcal{E}(\cdot)\colon\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{F})\to\mathbb{R}$ which leaves the constants invariant, the tower property $\mathcal{E}(\cdot)=\mathcal{E}(\mathcal{E}(\cdot|\mathcal{G}))$ is characterized via a pasting property of the representing sets of probabilities, and the importance of analytic functions is explained. Finally, it is characterized when a nonlinear version of Fubini's theorem holds true and when the product of a set of probabilities and a set of kernels is compact.

title: New city streets : the role of urban rail trails in the social and economic vitality of cities
Creators: name: Roberts, LS
Publisher: name: University of Tasmania
Year: 2019

description: Rail trails—abandoned rail corridors that are repurposed as trails for walking and biking—are increasingly common in the United States and Australia. In cities, rail trails are designed as linear parks, as bicycle superhighways, and as neighbourhood connectors. They function as both active transportation corridors and public space. In this way, they can reproduce aspects of historic urban streets, which were transportation corridors but also spaces for promenade, socialising, and shopping. This thesis examines urban rail trails through this potential as a new kind of city street. This potential is significant, as American and Australian cities struggle to integrate active transportation and to create public spaces that are lively and safe and that contribute to the social and economic life of the city. To analyse rail trails as both transportation and public space, this thesis develops a framework of urban vitality. Urban vitality is defined as a character of a space that encourages economic and social interaction between people. This framework of urban vitality is explored theoretically and practically through the development of three agents: First, territorialisation is the control over a physical space by a government, business, organization, or group; and the imposition of particular set of rules, meanings, and order to the space. Second, friction describes the physical, visual, and social interaction of people and places. These interactions are key to the creation and maintenance of a vibrant public sphere where individuals can come together to form communities. Third, looseness describes spaces where physical design, uses, and management contribute to a sense of freedom and possibility. Loose spaces are marked by a physical environment that can be modified and appropriated; a flexible (or non-existent, or vague) set of guidelines or regulations for the use of the space; and a resultant awareness or tolerance for overlapping and conflicting views. These three agents are independently increased or decreased in urban space through physical design, management practices, and everyday use. They interact with each other, reinforcing or conflicting with each other in different circumstances. This framework of urban vitality and the agents of territory, friction, and looseness are used in the analysis of three case study rail trails in the United States: The Burke-Gilman Trail in Seattle, Washington; the Midtown Greenway in Minneapolis, Minnesota; and the BeltLine in Atlanta, Georgia. The case study trails represent a diverse cross section of urban rail trails, varying by age, by design, and by their relationships to the surrounding urban fabric. The case study analysis leads to a generalised set of observations and findings on creating urban vitality in urban rail trails and other urban public spaces.

Adaptive Restart of the Optimized Gradient Method for Convex Optimization

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: First-order methods with momentum such as Nesterov's fast gradient method are very useful for convex optimization problems, but can exhibit undesirable oscillations yielding slow convergence rates for some applications. An adaptive restarting scheme can improve the convergence rate of the fast gradient method, when the parameter of a strongly convex cost function is unknown or when the iterates of the algorithm enter a locally strongly convex region. Recently, we introduced the optimized gradient method, a first-order algorithm that has an inexpensive per-iteration computational cost similar to that of the fast gradient method, yet has a worst-case cost function rate that is twice faster than that of the fast gradient method and that is optimal for large-dimensional smooth convex problems. Building upon the success of accelerating the fast gradient method using adaptive restart, this paper investigates similar heuristic acceleration of the optimized gradient method. We first derive a new first-order method that resembles the optimized gradient method for strongly convex quadratic problems with known function parameters, yielding a linear convergence rate that is faster than that of the analogous version of the fast gradient method. We then provide a heuristic analysis and numerical experiments that illustrate that adaptive restart can accelerate the convergence of the optimized gradient method. Numerical results also illustrate that adaptive restart is helpful for a proximal version of the optimized gradient method for nonsmooth composite convex functions.

Firing rate equations require a spike synchrony mechanism to correctly describe fast oscillations in inhibitory networks

description: Recurrently coupled networks of inhibitory neurons robustly generate oscillations in the gamma band. Nonetheless, the corresponding Wilson-Cowan type firing rate equation for such an inhibitory population does not generate such oscillations without an explicit time delay. We show that this discrepancy is due to a voltage-dependent spike-synchronization mechanism inherent in networks of spiking neurons which is not captured by standard firing rate equations. Here we investigate an exact low-dimensional description for a network of heterogeneous canonical type-I inhibitory neurons which includes the sub-threshold dynamics crucial for generating synchronous states. In the limit of slow synaptic kinetics the spike-synchrony mechanism is suppressed and the standard Wilson-Cowan equations are formally recovered as long as external inputs are also slow. However, even in this limit synchronous spiking can be elicited by inputs which fluctuate on a time-scale of the membrane time-constant of the neurons. Our meanfield equations therefore represent an extension of the standard Wilson-Cowan equations in which spike synchrony is also correctly described.

description: Non-government organisations (NGOs) are prominent and influential actors in all areas of international law. NGO behaviours in international treaty bodies have largely been the focus of governance rather than legal analysis. A legal analysis of the manner in which international treaties and treaty body rules affect NGO conduct has not been the subject of scholarship. This thesis presents a legal analysis framework that uses the objects and purposes of international treaties as a means of evaluating whether NGO behaviours comply with the expectations and animating principles of treaties. This thesis evaluated NGO conduct in two regional fisheries bodies – the Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (‘CAMLR Convention’) and the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling (‘Whaling Convention’). The primary focus was on NGOs in the role of observer at annual or biennial Commission meetings, with a secondary focus on the intersessional conduct of NGOs. The methods used were primary and secondary research, object and purpose construction, treaty interpretation, and case study analysis. Surveys and interviews were conducted with NGO and state delegates attending the CAMLR Commission and Whaling Commission. As a result of applying the object and purpose analysis, this thesis found that NGO behaviours were more likely to reflect the treaty object and purpose where Commission rules and procedures demonstrated clear expectations for NGOs to support the work of the Commission according to its object and purpose. It also found that where NGOs had a predominantly environmental focus, the NGO behaviour was more likely to be non-compliant with the object and purpose and to undermine Commission decision-making. The CAMLR Commission and Whaling Commission presented contrasting cases, with the former experiencing high degrees of NGO compliance with the object and purpose, which appeared to result from clear expectations on NGO engagement. The Whaling Commission presented the opposite, with unclear expectations on NGOs in their engagement and extensive non-compliant NGO behaviours. These case studies demonstrate the importance of maintaining clear rules of engagement for NGOs attending Commission meetings and interacting with treaty bodies and their treaties in intersessional periods. NGO behaviours in international treaty bodies should support effective decision-making in treaty bodies, according to the treaty’s object and purpose. By referring to the common language of the object and purpose in assessing NGO behaviour, it is also possible to facilitate greater transparency in both state and NGO behaviours. The object and purpose analysis framework is applicable in any treaty body and supports the rule of law for states and NGOs alike.

description: We present data on charged kaons (K+-) and ϕ mesons in Au(1.23A GeV)+Au collisions. It is the first simultaneous measurement of K and ϕ mesons in central heavy-ion collisions below a kinetic beam energy of 10A GeV. The ϕ/K- multiplicity ratio is found to be surprisingly high with a value of 0.52 +- 0.16 and shows no dependence on the centrality of the collision. Consequently, the different slopes of the K+ and K- transverse-mass spectra can be explained solely by feed- down, which substantially softens the spectra of K- mesons. Hence, in contrast to the commonly adapted argumentation in literature, the different slopes do not necessarily imply diverging freeze- out temperatures of K+ and K- mesons caused by different couplings to baryons.

description: In this work we present a large-deviation analysis for the counting statistics of atomic spontaneous emissions continuously detected in finite-bandwidth non-Markovian environment. We show that the statistics of the spontaneous emissions depends on the response time of the detector, which can result in big differences such as dynamical phase transition. This feature excludes the idea of regarding the spontaneous emissions as detection-free objective events. Possible experiment is briefly discussed in connection with the state-of-the-art optical cavity set-up.

description: Serum lactate is a potentially valuable biomarker for risk assessment for patients with sepsis, as hyperlactatemia is associated with elevated short-term mortality risks. However, the associations between hyperlactatemia and long-term clinical outcomes in sepsis survivors remain unknown. The objective of this study was to investigate whether hyperlactatemia at the time of hospitalisation for sepsis was associated with worse long-term clinical outcomes in sepsis survivors. In total, of 4983 sepsis survivors aged ≥ 20 years were enrolled in this study between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2018. They were divided into low (≤18 mg/dL; n = 2698) and high (>18 mg/dL; n = 2285) lactate groups. The high lactate group was then matched 1:1 by propensity-score method to the low lactate group. The outcomes of interest were all-cause mortality, major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), ischaemic stroke, myocardial infarction, hospitalisation for heart failure, and end-stage renal disease. After propensity score matching, the high lactate group had greater risks of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR] 1.54, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.41–1.67), MACEs (HR 1.53, 95% CI 1.29–1.81), ischaemic stroke (HR 1.47, 95% CI 1.19–1.81), myocardial infarction (HR 1.52, 95% CI 1.17–1.99), and end-stage renal disease (HR 1.42, 95% CI 1.16–1.72). Subgroup analyses stratified by baseline renal function revealed almost similarity across groups. We found that hyperlactatemia is associated with long-term risks of mortality and MACEs in sepsis survivors. Physicians may consider more aggressive and prompter management of sepsis in patients who present with hyperlactatemia to improve long-term prognoses.
