description: We develop a theory of point defects in cholesterics and textures in spherical droplets with normal anchoring. The local structure of chiral defects is described by singularity theory and a smectic-like gradient field establishing a nexus between cholesterics and smectics mediated by their defects. We identify the defects of degree $-2$ and $-3$ observed experimentally with the singularities $D_4^{-}$ and $T_{4,4,4}$, respectively. Radial point defects typical of nematics cannot be perturbed into chiral structures with a single handedness by general topological considerations. For the same reasons, the spherical surface frustrates the chirality in a surface boundary layer containing regions of both handedness.

A new approach for the vertical part of the contour in thermal field theories

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: A lot of work has been devoted in the past to understand the role of vertical branch of the time path in thermal field theories, and in particular to see how to deal with it in the real-time formalism. Unlike what is commonly believed, I emphasize on the fact that the vertical part of the path contributes to real-time Green's functions, and I prove that this contribution is taken into account simply by the substitution $n(ω_{\boldsymbol k})\to n(|k_o|)$ in the real time Feynman rules. This new proof is based on very simple algebraic properties of the contour integration.

Structure and shear response in nanometer thick films

Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)

description: Simulations of the structure and dynamics of fluid films confined to a thickness of a few molecular diameters are described. Confining walls introduce layering and in-plane order in the adjacent fluid. The latter is essential to transfer of shear stress. As the film thickness is decreased, by increasing pressure or decreasing the number of molecular layers, the entire film may undergo a phase transition. Spherical molecules tend to crystallize, while short chain molecules enter a glassy state with strong local orientational and translational order. These phase transitions lead to dramatic changes in the response of the film to imposed shear velocities $v$. Spherical molecules show an abrupt transition from Newtonian response to a yield stress as they crystallize. Chain molecules exhibit a continuously growing regime of non-Newtonian behavior where the shear viscosity drops as $v^{-2/3}$ at constant normal load. The same power law is found for a wide range of parameters, and extends to lower and lower velocities as a glass transition is approached. Once in the glassy state, chain molecules exhibit a finite yield stress. Shear may occur either within the film or at the film/wall interface. Interfacial shear dominates when films become glassy and when the film viscosity is increased by increasing the chain length.

On One-Loop Gap Equations for the Magnetic Mass in d=3 Gauge Theory
Creators: name: Cornwall, John M.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Recently several workers have attempted determinations of the so-called magnetic mass of d=3 non-Abelian gauge theories through a one-loop gap equation, using a free massive propagator as input. Self-consistency is attained only on-shell, because the usual Feynman-graph construction is gauge-dependent off-shell. We examine two previous studies of the pinch technique proper self-energy, which is gauge-invariant at all momenta, using a free propagator as input, and show that it leads to inconsistent and unphysical result. In one case the residue of the pole has the wrong sign (necessarily implying the presence of a tachyonic pole); in the second case the residue is positive, but two orders of magnitude larger than the input residue, which shows that the residue is on the verge of becoming ghostlike. This happens because of the infrared instability of d=3 gauge theory. A possible alternative one-loop determination via the effective action also fails. The lesson is that gap equations must be considered at least at two-loop level.

Supersymmetric dark matter with a cosmological constant

Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Recent measurements of cosmological parameters from the microwave background radiation, type Ia supernovae, and the age of globular clusters help determine the relic matter density in the universe. It is first shown with mild cosmological assumptions that the relic matter density satisfies $Ω_M h^2 < 0.6$ independent of the cosmological constant and independent of the SNIa data. Including the SNIa data, the constraint becomes $Ω_M h^2 < 0.35$. This result is then applied to supersymmetric models motivated by generic features in supergravity mediated supersymmetry breaking. The result is an upper bound on gaugino masses within reach of the LHC and a 1.5 TeV lepton collider. Thus, cosmological considerations are beginning to limit the supersymmetric mass spectra in the experimentally verifiable range without recourse to finetuning arguments, and without assuming a zero cosmological constant.

Linear response of twisted bilayer graphene: continuum vs. tight-binding models

description: We present a linear response calculation for twisted bilayer graphene. The calculation is performed for both the continuum and tight-binding models, with the aim of assessing the validity of the former. All qualitatively important features previously reported by us [T. Stauber et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 046801 (2018)] for the Drude matrix in the continuum model are also present in the tight-binding calculation, with increasing quantitative agreement for decreasing twist angle. These features include the chiral longitudinal magnetic moment associated with plasmonic modes, and the anomalous counterflow around the neutrality point, better interpreted as a paramagnetic response. We have addressed the differences between Drude and equilibrium response, and shown that orbital paramagnetism is the equilibrium response to a parallel magnetic field over a substantial doping region around the neutrality point. Chirality also makes the equilibrium response to exhibit a non trivial current structure associated with the non-vertical character of interlayer bonds in the tight-binding calculation.

description: We present a self-contained study of ADHM multi-instantons in SU(N) gauge theory, especially the novel interplay with supersymmetry and the large-N limit. We give both field- and string-theoretic derivations of the N=4 supersymmetric multi-instanton action and collective coordinate integration measure. As a central application, we focus on certain n-point functions G_n, n=16, 8 or 4, in N=4 SU(N) gauge theory at the conformal point (as well as on related higher-partial-wave correlators); these are correlators in which the 16 exact supersymmetric and superconformal fermion zero modes are saturated. In the large-N limit, for the first time in any 4-dimensional theory, we are able to evaluate all leading-order multi-instanton contributions exactly. We find compelling evidence for Maldacena's conjecture: (1) The large-N k-instanton collective coordinate space has the geometry of a single copy of AdS_5 x S^5. (2) The integration measure on this space includes the partition function of 10-dimensional N=1 SU(k) gauge theory dimensionally reduced to 0 dimensions, matching the description of D-instantons in Type IIB string theory. (3) In exact agreement with Type IIB string calculations, at the k-instanton level, G_n = \sqrt{N} g^8 k^{n-7/2} e^{2πikτ} \sum_{d|k} d^{-2} F_n(x_1,...,x_n), where F_n is identical to a convolution of n bulk-to-boundary supergravity propagators.

THERMODYNAMICS OF A BROWNIAN BRIDGE POLYMER MODEL IN A RANDOM ENVIRONMENT

description: We consider a directed random walk making either 0 or $+1$ moves and a Brownian bridge, independent of the walk, conditioned to arrive at point $b$ on time $T$. The Hamiltonian is defined as the sum of the square of increments of the bridge between the moments of jump of the random walk and interpreted as an energy function over the bridge connfiguration; the random walk acts as the random environment. This model provides a continuum version of a model with some relevance to protein conformation. The thermodynamic limit of the specific free energy is shown to exist and to be self-averaging, i.e. it is equal to a trivial --- explicitly computed --- random variable. An estimate of the asymptotic behaviour of the ground state energy is also obtained.

description: We derive the distance and structure of the Perseus molecular cloud by combining trigonometric parallaxes from Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations, taken as part of the GOBELINS survey, and Gaia Data Release 2. Based on our VLBA astrometry, we obtain a distance of 321+/-10 pc for IC 348. This is fully consistent with the mean distance of 320+/-26 measured by Gaia. The VLBA observations toward NGC 1333 are insufficient to claim a successful distance measurement to this cluster. Gaia parallaxes, on the other hand, yield a mean distance of 293+/-22 pc. Hence, the distance along the line of sight between the eastern and western edges of the cloud is ~30 pc, which is significantly smaller than previously inferred. We use Gaia proper motions and published radial velocities to derive the spatial velocities of a selected sample of stars. The average velocity vectors with respect to the LSR are (u,v,w) = (-6.1+/-1.6, 6.8+/-1.1, -0.9+/-1.2) and (-6.4+/-1.0, 2.1+/-1.4, -2.4+/-1.0) km/s for IC 348 and NGC 1333, respectively. Finally, our analysis of the kinematics of the stars has shown that there is no clear evidence of expansion, contraction, or rotational motions within the clusters.

description: The single-W production mechanism is synonymous to the electron-positron annihilation into electron, neutrino and a W boson with the outgoing electron lost in a small cone around the beam direction. It requires a Renormalization Scheme that preserves gauge invariance and fermion masses cannot be neglected in the calculation. A recently proposed generalization of the so-called Fermion-Loop scheme is applied to the evaluation of observables at LEP 2 energies. Single-W processes are dominated by a regime of low momentum transfer of the outgoing electron and any high-energy Renormalization Scheme fails to give the correct description of the scale. The Fermion-Loop scheme automatically converts all couplings of the theory into couplings that are running at the appropriate scale. Therefore, in addition to represent the only scheme fully justified on a field-theoretical basis, the Fermion-Loop is the best starting point to include radiative corrections into single-W production. Numerical results are presented, showing a decrease in the predictions that can be sizeable. There is no naive and overall rescaling of the e.m. coupling constant, in any pragmatic scheme, that can reproduce the Fermion-Loop results, at the requested accuracy, for all configurations and for all kinematical cuts.

description: A spline-DCS model is developed to forecast the conditional distribution of high-frequency financial data with periodic behavior.

An empirical application illustrates the practicality and impressive predictive performance of the model.

Individuals from F1 generation were allowed to interbreed. Progeny from this cross were screened for homozygous mutant females by assessing free-running period of individual flies using DAM monitor system. These females (n ranging from 10 to 100) were then utilized for the next generation of backcrossing with wild-type males. Virgin females were collected for setting up each cross. Flies were allowed to mate for 2â 3â days and then adults were discarded. This process was continued for 10 generations and experiments were conducted from flies sampled at 5th, 7th and 10th generation. (PDF 416 kb)

In this work, we analyze the Fermi-LAT pass 8 data ranging from 2008 August to 2017 May and report the detection of a modulation with a period of $18.416\pm0.008$ hours at a significance level of $\sim 4.8σ$. This is the first time to detect a significant modulation with a period much longer than that of millisecond pulsars in gamma-rays from Globular Clusters. The periodic modulation signal appears in the {\it Swift}-BAT data as well. The phase-folded Chandra X-ray light curve of a point source may have provided an additional clue.

Communication In Crisis: Foreign Language Learning on the Decline in a Globalising World
Creators: Johnson, Michelle
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2025

FLL is essential for preparing students for an interconnected world, yet its promotion faces challenges, some rooted in sociohistorical occurrences. This project examines the complex role of school leaders (SLs) and policymakers in promoting foreign language learning (FLL) within educational institutions. It also highlights the key role SLs play in addressing the challenges faced by foreign language teachers, including a lack of institutional support and the emotional toll this takes on their practice. It emphasizes the need for SLs to create supportive environments that foster FLL and meet the professional and emotional needs of said teachers. Motivational factors in FLL are explored, asserting that successful second language acquisition is driven by personal motivation and autonomy, not obligation. The study critiques policies that attempt to force FLL, advocating instead for environments where students connect language learning to their personal aspirations. Additionally, the project explores the sociohistorical context of FLL, particularly in Canada, where historical tensions between anglophone and francophone communities continue to shape language policies, underscoring the long-lasting effects of such policies. Recent legislative efforts, like Quebec’s Bill 96, illustrate their potential to hinder FLL. The aim of this project is to explore the attitudes of key stakeholders, particularly SLs and policymakers, toward FLL and to propose insights into how language policies can be reformed to create more inclusive and motivating FLL environments. Ultimately, it contributes to the discourse on global language education, advocating for policies that respect linguistic diversity and align with contemporary educational needs.

description: The paper presents an extension of Shannon fuzzy entropy for intuitionistic fuzzy one. Firstly, we presented a new formula for calculating the distance and similarity of intuitionistic fuzzy information. Then, we constructed measures for information features like score, certainty and uncertainty. Also, a new concept was introduced, namely escort fuzzy information. Then, using the escort fuzzy information, Shannon's formula for intuitionistic fuzzy information was obtained. It should be underlined that Shannon's entropy for intuitionistic fuzzy information verifies the four defining conditions of intuitionistic fuzzy uncertainty. The measures of its two components were also identified: fuzziness (ambiguity) and incompleteness (ignorance).

description: Controlling large swarms of robotic agents presents many challenges including, but not limited to, computational complexity due to a large number of agents, uncertainty in the functionality of each agent in the swarm, and uncertainty in the swarm's configuration. This work generalizes the swarm state using Random Finite Set (RFS) theory and solves a centralized control problem with a Quasi-Newton optimization through the use of Model Predictive Control (MPC) to overcome the aforementioned challenges. This work uses the RFS formulation to control the distribution of agents assuming an unknown or unspecified number of agents. Computationally efficient solutions are also obtained via the MPC version of the Iterative Linear Quadratic Regulator (ILQR), a variant of Differential Dynamic Programming (DDP). Information divergence is used to define the distance between the swarm RFS and the desired swarm configuration through the use of the modified $L_2^2$ distance. Simulation results using MPC and ILQR show that the swarm intensity converges to the desired intensity. Additionally, the RFS control formulation is shown to be very flexible in terms of the number of agents in the swarm and configuration of the desired Gaussian mixtures. Lastly, the ILQR and the Gaussian Mixture Probability Hypothesis Density filter are used in conjunction to solve a spacecraft relative motion problem with imperfect information to show the viability of centralized RFS control for this real-world scenario.

description: The decay process $B\to D^+ D^- π^0$ is an interesting channel for the investigation of CP violating effects in the $b-$ sector. We write down a decay amplitude constrained by a low-energy theorem, which also includes the contribution of resonant $S-$ and $P-$wave beauty and charmed mesons, and we determine the relevant matrix elements in the infinite heavy quark mass limit, assuming the factorization ansatz. We estimate the rate of the decay: ${\cal B}(B \to D^+ D^- π^0)\simeq 1 \times 10^{-3}$. We also analyze the time-independent and time-dependent differential decay distributions, concluding that a signal for this process should be observed at the B-factories. Finally, we give an estimate of the decay rate of the Cabibbo-favoured process $B\to D^+ D^- K_S$.

Origin of $sp$-electron magnetism in Graphitic Carbon Nitride

description: Based on first principles calculations, this study reveals that magnetism in otherwise non-magnetic materials can originate from the partial occupation of antibonding states. Since the antibonding wavefunctions are spatially antisymmetric, the spin wavefunctions should be symmteric according to the exchange antisymmetric principle of quantum mechanics. We demonstrate that this phenomenon can be observed in a graphitic carbon nitride material, $g$-C$_4$N$_3$, which can be experimentally synthesized and seen as a honeycomb structure with a vacancy. Three dangling bonds of N atoms pointing to the vacancy site interact with each other to form one bonding and two antibonding states. As the two antibonding states are near the Fermi level, and electrons should partially occupy the antibonding states in spin polarization, this leads to 1~$μ_B$ magnetic moment.

The Strassen Invariance Principle for Certain Non-stationary Markov-Feller Chains

description: We propose certain conditions which are sufficient for the functional law of the iterated logarithm (the Strassen invariance principle) for some general class of non-stationary Markov-Feller chains. This class may be briefly specified by the following two properties: firstly, the transition operator of the chain under consideration enjoys a non-linear Lyapunov-type condition, and secondly, there exists an appropriate Markovian coupling whose transition probability function can be decomposed into two parts, one of which is contractive and dominant in some sense. The construction of such a coupling derives from the paper of M. Hairer (Probab. Theory Related Fields, 124(3):345--380, 2002). Our criterion may serve as a useful tool in verifying the functional law of the iterated logarithm for certain random dynamical systems, developed eg. in molecular biology. In the final part of the paper we present an example application of our main theorem to the mathematical model describing stochastic dynamics of gene expression.
description: The results were primary announced in the manuscript arXiv:1804.09220v1, which we finally splitted into two papers in order to be able to give more precise descriptions and proofs. Note that even this single part consists of 30 pages (the other one is 25-pages long)

description: A new tight-binding total energy method, which has been shown to accurately predict ground state properties of transition and noble metals, is applied to Manganese, the element with the most complex ground state structure among the $d$ metals. We show that the tight-binding method correctly predicts the ground state structure of Mn, and offers some insight into the magnetic properties of this state.

description: Les liens entre les styles de leadership et les comportements de citoyenneté organisationnelle (CCO) ont fait l’objet de plusieurs études académiques témoignant de l’intérêt que présente ce domaine de recherche,  ce qui suggère que les styles de leadership et les CCO présentent un sujet de recherche continu au regard de l’intérêt accordé à l’étude des causes à effet entre les styles de leadership et les comportements de citoyenneté organisationnelle, néanmoins cette analyse des conséquences, des antécédents et liens de causalité directs et indirects fait ressortir que ce champ de recherche s’avère fertile et offre encore énormément de pistes de recherche à exploiter,  pour approfondir la connaissance dans ce domaine qui reste plutôt récent et prospère.

L’objectif de cette revue de littérature systématique est d’enrichir la recherche, en listant les différentes études qui ont traité des liens directs ou indirects entre les différents styles de leadership et les CCO. En effet ces études restent insuffisantes et méritent approfondissement, pour étudier les éventuelles relations directes et indirectes entre ces deux notions.

Un total de 147 articles publiés entre 2005 et 2021 ont été analysés ; Les principaux résultats de cette recherche ont montré que certains styles de leadership exercent un impact direct ou indirect sur les comportements de citoyenneté organisationnelle ; ces résultats fournissent des indices pour des recherches plus approfondie dans ce domaine.
CP Asymmetries in B_s Decays and Spontaneous CP violation

description: We study possible effects of new physics in CP asymmetries in two-body $B_s$ decays in left-right models with spontaneous CP violation. Considering the contributions of new CP phases to the $B_s$ mixing as well as to the penguin dominated decay amplitudes we show that, with the present constraints, large deviations from the standard model predictions in CP asymmetries are allowed in both cases. Detection of the new physics can be done by measuring non-zero asymmetries which are predicted to vanish in the standard model or by comparing two measurements which are predicted to be equal in the standard model. In particular, we show that the measurement of the CKM angle $γ$ in electroweak penguin dominated processes $B_s^0\toρ^0η^{(')}, ρ^0ϕ$ can largely be affected by the new physics.

description: The flavor and helicity distributions of the $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ hyperons for both valence and sea quarks are calculated in a perturbative QCD (pQCD) based model. We relate these quark distributions to the fragmentation functions of the $Λ$ and $\barΛ$, and calculate the $z$-dependence of the longitudinal spin transfer to the $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ in lepton deep-inelastic scattering (DIS). It is shown that the spin transfer to the $Λ$ is compatible with the first HERMES results at DESY and further tests are suggested. We also make predictions for the $z$-dependence of the $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ longitudinal polarizations in neutrino (antineutrino) DIS processes. We investigate the sea contribution to the fragmentation functions, and we test a possible scenario where sea quarks in $Λ$ (or sea antiquarks in $\barΛ$) are negatively polarized, whereas sea antiquarks in the $Λ$ (or sea quarks in $\barΛ$) are positively polarized. The asymmetry of the polarized fragmentation functions of sea quarks and antiquarks to $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ provides a way to understand the different behaviour between the $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ spin transfers observed in the recent E665 experiment at FNAL.

description: The pattern of migrating zonal flow bands associated with the solar cycle, known as the torsional oscillation, has been monitored with continuous global helioseismic observations by the Global Oscillations Network Group, together with those made by the Michelson Doppler Imager onboard the Solar and Heliosepheric Observatory and its successor the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory, since 1995, giving us nearly two full solar cycles of observations. We report that the flows now show traces of the mid-latitude acceleration that is expected to become the main equatorward-moving branch of the zonal flow pattern for Cycle 25. Based on the current position of this branch, we speculate that the onset of widespread activity for Cycle 25 is unlikely to be earlier than the middle of 2019.

description: The MSSM with a light right-handed stop and supersymmetric models with a singlet whose vev is comparable to that of the SU(2)_W Higgs allow for a strongly first-order electroweak phase transition even for a mass of the lightest Higgs around 100 GeV. After a short review of the standard model situation we discuss these supersymmetric models. We also compare perturbative calculations based on the dimensionally reduced 3-dimensional action with lattice results and present an analytic procedure based on an analogue of the stochastic vacuum model of QCD to estimate the nonperturbative contributions.
