description: Recurring outbursts associated with matter flowing onto compact stellar remnants (black-holes, neutron stars, white dwarfs) in close binary systems, provide strong test beds for constraining the poorly understood accretion process. The efficiency of angular momentum (and thus mass) transport in accretion discs, which has traditionally been encoded in the $α$-viscosity parameter, shapes the light-curves of these outbursts. Numerical simulations of the magneto-rotational instability that is believed to be the physical mechanism behind this transport find values of $α\sim 0.1-0.2$ as required from observations of accreting white dwarfs. Equivalent $α$-viscosity parameters have never been estimated in discs around neutron stars or black holes. Here we report the results of an analysis of archival X-ray light-curves of twenty-one black hole X-ray binary outbursts. Applying a Bayesian approach for a model of accretion allows us to determine corresponding $α$-viscosity parameters, directly from the light curves, to be $α\sim$0.2--1. This result may be interpreted either as a strong intrinsic rate of angular momentum transport in the disc, which can only be sustained by the magneto-rotational instability if a large-scale magnetic field threads the disc, or as a direct indication that mass is being lost from the disc through substantial mass outflows strongly shaping the X-ray binary outburst. Furthermore, the lack of correlation between our estimates of $α$-viscosity and accretion state implies that such outflows can remove a significant fraction of disc mass in all black hole X-ray binary accretion states, favouring magnetically-driven winds over thermally-driven winds that require specific radiative conditions.

description: We develop a statistical theory of waveform shaping of incident waves that aim to efficiently deliver energy at weakly lossy targets which are embedded inside chaotic enclosures. Our approach utilizes the universal features of chaotic scattering -- thus minimizing the use of information related to the exact characteristics of the chaotic enclosure. The proposed theory applies equally well to systems with and without time-reversal symmetry.

description: Due to the lack of low redshift long Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), the circular problem has been a severe obstacle for using GRBs as cosmological candles. In this paper, we present a new method to deal with such a problem in MCMC global fitting analysis. Assuming that a certain type of correlations between different observables exists in a subsample of GRBs, for the parameters involved in the correlation relation, we treat them as free parameters and determine them simultaneously with cosmological parameters through MCMC analysis on GRB data together with other observational data. Then the circular problem is naturally eliminated in this procedure. We take the Ghirlanda relation as an example while keeping in mind the debate about its physical validity. Together with SNe Ia, WMAP and SDSS data, we include 27 GRBs with the reported Ghirlanda relation in our study, and perform MCMC global fitting. We consider the $Λ$CDM model and dynamical dark energy models. In each case, in addition to the constraints on the relevant cosmological parameters, we obtain the best fit values as well as the distributions of the correlation parameters $A$ and $C$. We find that the observational data sets other than GRBs can affect $A$ and $C$ considerably through their degeneracies with the cosmological parameters. The results on $A$ and $C$ for different cosmological models are in well agreement within $1σ$ range. The best fit value of $A$ in all models being analyzed is $A\sim 1.53$ with $σ\sim 0.08$. For $C$, we have the best value in the range of $0.94-0.98$ with $σ\sim 0.1$. It is also noted that the distributions of $A$ and $C$ are generally broader than the priors used in many studies in literature. (Abriged)

Detection of transplanckian effects in the cosmic microwave background

description: Quantum gravity effects are expected to modify the primordial density fluctuations produced during inflation and leave their imprint on the cosmic microwave background observed today. We present a new analysis discussing whether these effects are detectable, considering both currently available data and simulated results from an optimal CMB experiment. We find that the WMAP (Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe) data show no evidence for the particular signature considered in this work but give an upper bound on the parameters of the model. However, a hypothetical experiment shows that with proper data, the trans-Planckian effects should be detectable through alternate sampling methods. This fuzzy conclusion is a result of the nature of the oscillations, since they give rise to a likelihood hypersurface riddled with local maxima. A simple Bayesian analysis shows no significant evidence for the simulated data to prefer a trans-Planckian model. Conventional Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods are not suitable for exploring this complicated landscape, but alternative methods are required to solve the problem. This, however, requires extremely high-precision data.

description: In repeated games with incomplete information, rational agents must carefully weigh the tradeoﬀs of advantageously exploiting their information to achieve a short-term gain versus carefully concealing their information so as not to give
up a long-term informed advantage. The theory of inﬁnitelyrepeated two-player zero-sum games with incomplete information has been carefully studied, beginning with the seminal work of Aumann and Maschler. While this theoretical work has produced a characterization of optimal strategies,
algorithms for solving for optimal strategies have not yet been studied. For the case where one player is informed about the true state of the world and the other player is uninformed, we provide a non-convex mathematical programming formulation for computing the value of the game, as well as optimal strategies for the informed player. We then describe an eﬃcient algorithm for solving this diﬃcult optimization problem to within arbitrary accuracy. We also discuss how to eﬃciently compute optimal strategies for the uninformed player using the output of our algorithm.

description: Breast cancer is already one of the most common form of cancer worldwide. Mammography image analysis is still the most effective diagnostic method to promote the early detection of breast cancer. Accurately segmenting tumors in digital mammography images is important to improve diagnosis capabilities of health specialists and avoid misdiagnosis. In this work, we evaluate the feasibility of applying GrowCut to segment regions of tumor and we propose two GrowCut semi-supervised versions. All the analysis was performed by evaluating the application of segmentation techniques to a set of images obtained from the Mini-MIAS mammography image database. GrowCut segmentation was compared to Region Growing, Active Contours, Random Walks and Graph Cut techniques. Experiments showed that GrowCut, when compared to the other techniques, was able to acquire better results for the metrics analyzed. Moreover, the proposed semi-supervised versions of GrowCut was proved to have a clinically satisfactory quality of segmentation.

description: We present an improved algorithm for solving symmetrically diagonally dominant linear systems. On input of an n×n symmetric diagonally dominant matrix A with m non-zero entries and a vector b such that Ax̅ = b for some (unknown) vector x̅, our algorithm computes a vector x such that ∥x-x̅∥A≤ϵ∥x̅∥A1in time Õ (m log n log (1/ϵ))2. The solver utilizes in a standard way a 'preconditioning' chain of progressively sparser graphs. To claim the faster running time we make a two-fold improvement in the algorithm for constructing the chain. The new chain exploits previously unknown properties of the graph sparsification algorithm given in [Koutis,Miller,Peng, FOCS 2010], allowing for stronger preconditioning properties.We also present an algorithm of independent interest that constructs nearly-tight low-stretch spanning trees in time Õ (m log n), a factor of O (log n) faster than the algorithm in [Abraham,Bartal,Neiman, FOCS 2008]. This speedup directly reflects on the construction time of the preconditioning chain.

The framework of the continuum approximation is employed, where the motion of the charge carriers is governed by the Dirac- Weyl equation. The explicit solution of a particular example is provided. It is shown that these models possess nontrivial integrals of motion that establish N = 2 nonlinear supersymmetry in case of metallic and maximally semiconducting nanotubes. Remarkable stability of energy levels with respect to small fluctuations of longitudinal momentum is demonstrated

description: We present an efficient algorithm for solving a linear system arising from the 1-Laplacian corresponding to a collapsible simplicial complex with a known collapsing sequence. When combined with a result of Chillingworth, our algorithm is applicable to convex simplicial complexes embedded in ℝ3. The running time of our algorithm is nearly-linear in the size of the complex and is logarithmic on its numerical properties. Our algorithm is based on projection operators and combinatorial steps for transferring between them. The former relies on decomposing flows into circulations and potential flows using fast solvers for graph Laplacians, and the latter relates Gaussian elimination to topological properties of simplicial complexes.

Role of electron back action on photons in hybridizing double-layer graphene plasmons with localized photons

description: Induced polarization by Dirac electrons in double-layer graphene can affect hybridization of radiative and evanescent fields. Electron back action appears as a localized optical field to modify an incident surface-plasmon-polariton (SPP) evanescent field. This leads to high sensitivity (beyond the diffraction limit) to local environments and provides a scrutiny tool for molecules or protein selectively bounded with carbon. A scattering matrix with frequencies around the surface-plasmon (SP) resonance supports this scrutiny tool and exhibits sensibly the increase, decrease and even a full suppression of the polarization field in the vicinity of a conducting surface for longer SPP wavelengthes. Moreover, triply-hybridized absorption peaks associated with SP, acoustic- and optical-like graphene plasmons become significant only at high SP frequencies, but are overshadowed by a round SPP peak for low SP frequencies. These resonant features (different from 3D photonic lattices) facilitate the polariton-only excitations, giving rise to possible polariton condensation for a threshold-free laser. The current graphene-plasmon hybridization formalism can be easily generalized to other two-dimensional materials, such as silicene, germanene, molybdenum disulfide, etc.

description: Security incidents such as targeted distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks on power grids and hacking of factory industrial control systems (ICS) are on the increase. This paper unpacks where emerging security risks lie for the industrial internet of things, drawing on both technical and regulatory perspectives. Legal changes are being ushered by the European Union (EU) Network and Information Security (NIS) Directive 2016 and the General Data Protection Regulation 2016 (GDPR) (both to be enforced from May 2018). We use the case study of the emergent smart energy supply chain to frame, scope out and consolidate the breadth of security concerns at play, and the regulatory responses. We argue the industrial IoT brings four security concerns to the fore, namely: appreciating the shift from offline to online infrastructure; managing temporal dimensions of security; addressing the implementation gap for best practice; and engaging with infrastructural complexity. Our goal is to surface risks and foster dialogue to avoid the emergence of an Internet of Insecure Industrial Things

description: Beta-ensembles of random matrices are naturally considered as quantum integrable systems, in particular, due to their relation with conformal field theory, and more recently appeared connection with quantized Painlevé Hamiltonians. Here we demonstrate that, at least for {\it even integer} beta, these systems are classically integrable, e.g. there are Lax pairs associated with them, which we explicitly construct. To come to the result, we show that a solution of every Fokker-Planck equation in one space (and one time) dimensions can be considered as a component of an eigenvector of a Lax pair. The explicit finding of the Lax pair depends on finding a solution of a governing system -- a closed system of two nonlinear PDEs of hydrodynamic type. This result suggests that there must be a solution for all values of beta. We find the solution of this system for even integer beta in the particular case of quantum Painlevé II related to the soft edge of the spectrum for beta-ensembles. The solution is given in terms of Calogero system of $β/2$ particles in an additional time-dependent potential. Thus, we find another situation where quantum integrability is reduced to classical integrability.

description: We study the ground states of the single- and two-qubit asymmetric Rabi models, in which the qubit-oscillator coupling strengths for the counterrotating-wave and corotating-wave interactions are unequal. We take the transformation method to obtain the approximately analytical ground states for both models and numerically verify its validity for a wide range of parameters under the near-resonance condition. We find that the ground-state energy in either the single- or two-qubit asymmetric Rabi model has an approximately quadratic dependence on the coupling strengths stemming from different contributions of the counterrotating-wave and corotating-wave interactions. For both models, we show that the ground-state energy is mainly contributed by the counterrotating-wave interaction. Interestingly, for the two-qubit asymmetric Rabi model, we find that, with the increase of the coupling strength in the counterrotating-wave or corotating-wave interaction, the two-qubit entanglement first reaches its maximum then drops to zero. Furthermore, the maximum of the two-qubit entanglement in the two-qubit asymmetric Rabi model can be much larger than that in the two-qubit symmetric Rabi model.

description: The use of open learning systems for the provision of higher education continues to grow and evolve around the world. The diversity of open learning systems that now exist reflects the ability to adapt this form of education to meet the higher education needs of individuals in a range of contexts including cultural, political, and economic contexts.This thesis examines the provision of open and distance education in Bangladesh which has a population of 120 million and where higher education has been mainly available through eleven conventional universities. Until recently these universities were only able to access 5% people of the country and were unable to cater to the growing needs for higher education of the increasing population, particularly those people not living in large cities. In order to overcome the low participation in higher education, the Bangladesh Open University (BOU) was established in 1992 to help to meet the country's increasing need for higher education and vocational training using open and distance teaching mode.The approach to materials design and course delivery by the BOU endeavours to accommodate the cultural, economic and student learning contexts that prevail in Bangladesh. This thesis describes this approach through an evaluation of the open and distance education materials used in one unit of the Bachelor of Education (BEd) program and one unit of the Diploma in Management (DIM) at the BOU.Three broad criteria for evaluating the selected BOU materials were: learner support structure, learning resources and learning systems. The criteria were derived from a comparative study of open and distance education that exists in developed and developing countries. Final conclusions were made after evaluating the selected materials from BOU using these criteria.The curriculum evaluation methodology by Stufflebeam (1985) and Dogan (1989) was used for assessing open and distance education materials.Findings indicate that the text materials of the BOU should be changed and be prepared according to the social, cultural, economic, and education contexts of Bangladesh. For instance, printed text materials should have pretest questions, concept maps, specific objectives, illustrations within the content, exercises and questions, assignments, quotations, footnotes, and references. At the same time, in addition to text materials, support services should be re -arranged in accordance with access issues and cultural perspectives.

description: We announce ChromaStarPy, an integrated general stellar atmospheric modeling and spectrum synthesis code written entirely in python V. 3. ChromaStarPy is a direct port of the ChromaStarServer (CSServ) Java modeling code described in earlier papers in this series, and many of the associated JavaScript (JS) post-processing procedures have been ported and incorporated into CSPy so that students have access to ready-made "data products". A python integrated development environment (IDE) allows a student in a more advanced course to experiment with the code and to graphically visualize intermediate and final results, ad hoc, as they are running it. CSPy allows students and researchers to compare modeled to observed spectra in the same IDE in which they are processing observational data, while having complete control over the stellar parameters affecting the synthetic spectra. We also take the opportunity to describe improvements that have been made to the related codes, ChromaStar (CS), CSServ and ChromaStarDB (CSDB) that, where relevant, have also been incorporated into CSPy. The application may be found at the home page of the OpenStars project: http://www.ap.smu.ca/~ishort/OpenStars/ .

description: We study topological systems with both a chiral and a spatial symmetry which result in an additional spatial chiral symmetry. We distinguish the topologically nontrivial states according to the chiral symmetries protecting them and study several models in 1D and 3D systems. The perturbations breaking the spatial symmetry can break only one of the two chiral symmetries while the perturbations preserving the spatial symmetry always break or preserve both of them. In 3D systems, besides the 3D symmetries, the topologically nontrivial boundary modes may also be protected by the hidden lower dimensional symmetries. We then figure out the corresponding topological invariants and connect them with the 3D invariants.

description: We investigated the nucleation process at the molecular level. Controlled sticking of individual atoms onto mass selected clusters over a wide mass range has been carried out for the first time. We measured the absolute unimolecular nucleation cross sections of cationic sodium clusters Na_{n}^{+} in the range n=25-200 at several collision energies. The widely used hard sphere approximation clearly fails for small sizes: not only should vapor-to-liquid nucleation theories be modified, but also, through the microreversibility principle, cluster decay rate statistical models.

description: Solid-state single-photon emitters are key components for integrated quantum photonic devices. However, they can suffer from poor extraction efficiencies, caused by the large refractive index contrast between the bulk material they are embedded in and air: this results in a small fraction (that can be as low as <1%) of the emitted photons reaching free-space collection optics. To overcome this issue, we present a device that combines a metallic nano-ring, positioned on the sample surface and centered around the emitter, and an epoxy-based super-solid immersion lens, deterministically deposited above the ring devices. We show that the combined broadband lensing effect of the nano-ring and of the super-solid immersion lens significantly increases the extraction of light emitted by single InAs/GaAs quantum dots into free space: we observe enhancements in the emitted intensity by the nano-ring of up to a factor 20 and by the super-solid immersion lens of up to a factor 10. Such cumulative enhancements allow us to measure photon fluxes approaching 1 million counts per second, from a single InAs/GaAs quantum dot in bulk. The combined broad-band enhancement in the extraction of light can be implemented with any kind of classical and quantum solid-state emitter and opens the path to the realisation of scalable bright devices. The same approach can also be implemented to improve the absorption of light, for instance for small-area broadband photo-detectors.

Büttiker probes and the Recursive Green's Function; an efficient approach to include dissipation in general configurations

description: An efficient and compact approach to the inclusion of dissipative effects in Non-Equilibrium Green's Function (NEGF) simulations of electronic systems is introduced. The algorithm is based on two well known methods in the literature, firstly that of the so-called Recursive Green's Function (RGF) and secondly that of Büttiker probes. Numerical methods for exact evaluation of the Jacobian are presented by a direct extension to RGF which can be modularly included in any codebase that uses it presently. Then using both physical observations and numerical methods, the computation time of the Büttiker probe Jacobian is improved significantly. An improvement to existing phonon models within Büttiker probes is then demonstrated in the simulation of fully atomistic graphene nanoribbon based field effect transistors in n-i-n and p-i-n operation.

description: A better understanding of sulphur chemistry is needed to solve the interstellar sulphur depletion problem. A way to achieve this goal is to study new S-bearing molecules in the laboratory, obtaining accurate rest frequencies for an astronomical search. We focus on dithioformic acid, HCSSH, which is the sulphur analogue of formic acid. The aim of this study is to provide an accurate line list of the two HCSSH $trans$ and $cis$ isomers in their electronic ground state and a comprehensive centrifugal distortion analysis with an extension of measurements in the millimetre and submillimetre range. We studied the two isomers in the laboratory using an absorption spectrometer employing the frequency-modulation technique. The molecules were produced directly within a free-space cell by glow discharge of a gas mixture. We measured lines belonging to the electronic ground state up to 478 GHz, with a total number of 204 and 139 new rotational transitions, respectively, for $trans$ and $cis$ isomers. The final dataset also includes lines in the centimetre range available from literature. The extension of the measurements in the mm and submm range lead to an accurate set of rotational and centrifugal distortion parameters. This allows us to predict frequencies with estimated uncertainties as low as 5 kHz at 1 mm wavelength. Hence, the new dataset provided by this study can be used for astronomical search.

Bounded Variability of Metric Temporal Logic

Subjects: subject: Logic in Computer Science (cs.LO)

description: Previous work has shown that reasoning with real-time temporal logics is often simpler when restricted to models with bounded variability---where no more than v events may occur every V time units, for given v, V. When reasoning about formulas with intrinsic bounded variability, one can employ the simpler techniques that rely on bounded variability, without any loss of generality. What is then the complexity of algorithmically deciding which formulas have intrinsic bounded variability? In this paper, we study the problem with reference to Metric Temporal Logic (MTL). We prove that deciding bounded variability of MTL formulas is undecidable over dense-time models, but with a undecidability degree lower than generic dense-time MTL satisfiability. Over discrete-time models, instead, deciding MTL bounded variability has the same exponential-space complexity as satisfiability. To complement these negative results, we also briefly discuss small fragments of MTL that are more amenable to reasoning about bounded variability.

description: A U(2,2|4)-invariant A-model constructed from fermionic superfields has recently been proposed as a sigma model for the superstring on AdS_5xS^5. After explaining the relation of this A-model with the pure spinor formalism, the A-model action is expressed as a gauged linear sigma model. In the zero radius limit, the Coulomb branch of this sigma model is interpreted as D-brane holes which are related to gauge-invariant N=4 d=4 super-Yang-Mills operators. As in the worldsheet derivation of open-closed duality for Chern-Simons theory, this construction may lead to a worldsheet derivation of the Maldacena conjecture. Intriguing connections to the twistorial formulation of N=4 Yang-Mills are also noted.

First-Order Asymptotics of Path-Dependent Derivatives in Multiscale Stochastic Volatility Environment

description: In this paper, we extend the first-order asymptotics analysis of Fouque et al. to general path-dependent financial derivatives using Dupire's functional Ito calculus. The main conclusion is that the market group parameters calibrated to vanilla options can be used to price to the same order exotic, path-dependent derivatives as well. Under general conditions, the first-order condition is represented by a conditional expectation that could be numerically evaluated. Moreover, if the path-dependence is not too severe, we are able to find path-dependent closed-form solutions equivalent to the fist-order approximation of path-independent options derived in Fouque et al. Additionally, we exemplify the results with Asian options and options on quadratic variation.
