description: We study electric transport near the Mott metal-insulator transition. Optical conductivity of the half-filled Hubbard model on a triangular lattice is calculated based on a cellular dynamical mean field theory including vertex corrections inside the cluster. By investigating the spectrum at low frequencies, we find that a Drude peak on the metallic side smoothly connects to an "ingap" peak on the insulating side. The optical weight of these peaks exhibits a critical behavior with power-law near the Mott critical end point, $|D-D^*|\propto|U-U^*|^{1/δ}$. We find that the critical exponent $1/δ$ differs from the exponents in the thermodynamics.

description: We report a systematic angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study on Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Ru$_x$)$_2$As$_2$ for a wide range of Ru concentrations (0.15 $\leq$ \emph{x} $\leq$ 0.74). We observed a crossover from two-dimension to three-dimension for some of the hole-like Fermi surfaces with Ru substitution and a large reduction in the mass renormalization close to optimal doping. These results suggest that isovalent Ru substitution has remarkable effects on the low-energy electron excitations, which are important for the evolution of superconductivity and antiferromagnetism in this system.

description: Icy grain mantles are commonly observed through infrared spectroscopy toward dense clouds, cloud cores, protostellar envelopes and protoplanetary disks. Up to 80% of the available oxygen, carbon and nitrogen are found in such ices; the most common ice constituents - H2O, CO2 and CO - are second in abundance only to H2 in many star forming regions. In addition to being a molecular reservoir, ice chemistry is responsible for much of the chemical evolution from H2O to complex, prebiotic molecules. Combining the existing ISO, Spitzer, VLT and Keck ice data results in a large sample of ice sources (\sime80) that span all stages of star formation and a large range of protostellar luminosities (<0.1-105 L\odot). Here we summarize the different techniques that have been applied to mine this ice data set on information on typical ice compositions in different environments and what this implies about how ices form and evolve during star and planet formation. The focus is on how to maximize the use of empirical constraints from ice observations, followed by the application of information from experiments and models. This strategy is used to identify ice bands and to constrain which ices form early during cloud formation, which form later in the prestellar core and which require protostellar heat and/or UV radiation to form. The utility of statistical tests, survival analysis and ice maps is highlighted; the latter directly reveals that the prestellar ice formation takes place in two phases, associated with H2O and CO ice formation, respectively, and that most protostellar ice variation can be explained by differences in the prestellar CO ice formation stage. Finally, special attention is paid to the difficulty of observing complex ices directly and how gas observations, experiments and models help in constraining this ice chemistry stage.

description: Bismuth telluride - Bi(2)Te(3)- and related compounds have recently attracted strong interest owing to the discovery of the topological insulator properties in many members of this family of materials. The few-quintuple films of these materials are particularly interesting from the physics point of view. We report results of the micro-Raman spectroscopy study of the "graphene-like" exfoliated few-quintuple layers of Bi(2)Te(3), Bi(2)Se(3) and Sb(2)Te(3). It is found that crystal symmetry breaking in few-quintuple films results in appearance of A1u-symmetry Raman peaks, which are not active in the bulk crystals. The scattering spectra measured under the 633-nm wavelength excitation reveals a number of resonant features, which could be used for analysis of the electronic and phonon processes in these materials. In order to elucidate the influence of substrates on the few-quintuple-thick topological insulators we examined the Raman spectra of these films placed on mica, sapphire and hafnium-oxide substrates. The obtained results help to understand the physical mechanisms of Raman scattering in the few-quintuple-thick films and can be used for nanometrology of topological insulator films on various substrates.

description: Helcophorus (Thibeteros) ekaterinae Kazantsev et Perkovsky, sp. nov.
(Figs 1, 2)
Material. Holotype ♂, specimen No. SIZK UA-28623, Rovno amber, late Eocene.
Description. Sex unknown. Most of the body missing, the amber piece only carries an imprint of the anterior half of its upper part, the inclusion of antennae and the anterior leg in milky substance. Upperside light brown (quite probably red in the live specimen; Figs 1, 2).
Head about as wide as pronotum. Eyes bulging, relatively large, their diameter ca. 1/2 length of pronotum (Figs 1, 2). Antennomeres 2 and 3 of approximately equal length.
Pronotum transverse, ca. 1.5 times wider than long, semi-trapezoidal, with pronounced acute posterior angles; median areole rhomboidal, broad in the middle, connected with lateral sides with narrow oblique, slightly curved costae. Scutellum (postnotal plate of mesonotal scutellum) transverse, parallel-sided, medially moderately triangularly notched, with broadly rounded distal lobes (Figs 1, 2).
Elytra elongate, flattened, noticeably widened distally; with four primary costae, of which third distinctly stouter; interstices with rectangular transverse, their width ca. 2 times exceeding their length, cells; pubescence sparse and short, almost indistinguishable (Figs 1, 2).
Length (of the roughly anterior half of the individual): 6.5 mm. Width at humeri: 2.0 mm. Length of antenna ca. 4.4 mm.
Syninclusions. SIZK UA-28623: 2 Dolichopodaidae, 2 Formicidae (1 Yantaromyrmex sp.), Aranei, cobweb; SIZK UA-28624: 2 Formicidae, Chironomidae, Cecydomyiidae, Collembola, Entomobryomorpha.
Etymology. Helcophorus (Thibeteros) ekaterinae sp. nov. is named after our colleague Dr Ekaterina Sidorchuk (Moscow), a prominent paleoentomologist who lost her life in a diving accident in the Maldives.
Diagnosis. The new species may be distinguished from the extant members of the same subgenus, H. (Th.) tricolor Kazantsev, 2000 and H. (Th.) sichuanensis Kazantsev, 2015, by the noticeably more transverse elytral cells between the primary costae and narrowly notched scutellum with broadly rounded distal lobes (Figs 1, 2), compared to less transverse elytral cells and broadly notched scutellum with narrowed distal lobes in the extant species of the subgenus (Fig. 4). It differs from the only other fossil Helcophorus species, H. (s. str.) berendti, by the distinctly sparser elytral vestiture, relatively larger eyes, and more transverse elytral cells (Figs 1, 2).

description: In this paper, we consider a new statistic on the set $\mathcal{S}_n$ of permutations of length $n$ which records the number of vertical edges within their bargraph representations. Indeed, we determine the distribution of this statistic on a class of multi-permutations having $\mathcal{S}_n$ as a subset. We compute an explicit formula for the total number of vertical edges within all members of this class and also for the number of interior vertices in the corresponding bargraphs. A generating function formula is determined and some closely related statistics are considered. Finally, we show that the total number of vertical edges in all the members of $\mathcal{S}_n$ equals the number of runs in the members of $\mathcal{S}_{n+1}$ by constructing an explicit bijection which applies more generally to multi-permutations.

description: After introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) into routine childhood immunization programs, there has been a substantial decline in vaccine-serotype invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in vaccinated children and in unvaccinated persons. However, indirect protection may be relatively reduced in adults with underlying comorbidities. Data from a prospective, population-based surveillance system were analyzed using an indirect cohort study design. There were 1153 adult IPD cases from January 2000 to December 2011. The proportion of cases with immunocompetent comorbidities in the post-PCV era did not differ from that in the pre-PCV period (OR 1.10; 95% CI: 0.72-1.67). There was a non-significant increase in the proportion of cases with immunocompromising comorbidities (RRR 1.69; 95% CI: 0.79-3.60). This observed increase, from 25.5% in the pre-PCV period to 31.1% in the post PCV-13 period, was largely due to non-PCV serotype disease. Childhood PCV programs have provided considerable benefit, but the relative burden of IPD in immunocompromised adults may be increasing.

description: The rapid evolution of machine learning (ML) has led to the widespread adoption of complex "black box" models, such as deep neural networks and ensemble methods. These models exhibit exceptional predictive performance, making them invaluable for critical decision-making across diverse domains within society. However, their inherently opaque nature raises concerns about transparency and interpretability, making them untrustworthy decision support systems. To alleviate such a barrier to high-stakes adoption, research community focus has been on developing methods to explain black box models as a means to address the challenges they pose. Efforts are focused on explaining these models instead of developing ones that are inherently interpretable. Designing inherently interpretable models from the outset, however, can pave the path towards responsible and beneficial applications in the field of ML. In this position paper, we clarify the chasm between explaining black boxes and adopting inherently interpretable models. We emphasize the imperative need for model interpretability and, following the purpose of attaining better (i.e., more effective or efficient w.r.t. predictive performance) and trustworthy predictors, provide an experimental evaluation of latest hybrid learning methods that integrates symbolic knowledge into neural network predictors. We demonstrate how interpretable hybrid models could potentially supplant black box ones in different domains.
The Kepler light curves of V1504 Cygni and V344 Lyrae: A study of the Outburst Properties

description: We examine the Kepler light curves of V1504 Cyg and V344 Lyr, encompassing ~736 d at 1 min cadence. During this span each system exhibited ~64-65 outbursts, including six superoutbursts. We find that, in both systems, the normal outbursts between two superoutbursts increase in duration over time by a factor ~1.2-1.9, and then reset to a small value after the following superoutburst. In both systems the trend of quiescent intervals between normal outbursts is to increase to a local maximum about half way through the supercycle - the interval from one superoutburst to the next - and then to decrease back to a small value by the time of the next superoutburst. This is inconsistent with Osaki's thermal-tidal model, which predicts a monotonic increase in the quiescent intervals between normal outbursts during a supercycle. Also, most of the normal outbursts have an asymmetric, fast-rise/slower-decline shape, consistent with outbursts triggered at large radii. The exponential rate of decay of the plateau phase of the superoutbursts is 8 d/mag for V1504 Cyg and 12 d/mag for V344 Lyr. This time scale gives a direct measure of the viscous time scale in the outer accretion disk given the expectation that the entire disk is in the hot, viscous state during superoutburst. The resulting constraint on the Shakura-Sunyaev parameter, alpha_{hot} ~ 0.1, is consistent with the value inferred from the fast dwarf nova decays. By looking at the slow decay rate for superoutbursts, which occur in systems below the period gap, in combination with the slow decay rate in one long outburst above the period gap (in U Gem), we infer a steep dependence of the decay rate on orbital period for long outbursts. This implies a steep dependence of alpha_{cold} on orbital period, consistent with tidal torquing as being the dominant angular momentum transport mechanism in quiescent disks in interacting binary systems.

description: We investigate the state complexity of the shuffle operation on regular languages initiated by Campeanu et al. and studied subsequently by Brzozowski et al.. We shift the problem into the combinatorics domain by turning the problem of state accessibility into a problem of intersection of partitions. This allows us to develop new tools and to reformulate the conjecture of Brzozowski et al. about the above-mentionned state complexity.

description: Amplification/attenuation of light waves in artificial materials with a gain/loss modulation on the wavelength scale can be sensitive to the propagation direction. We give a numerical proof of the high anisotropy of the gain/loss in two dimensional periodic structures with square and rhombic lattice symmetry by solving the full set of Maxwell's equations using the finite difference time domain method. Anisotropy of amplification/attenuation leads to the narrowing of the angular spectrum of propagating radiation with wavevectors close to the edges of the first Brillouin Zone. The effect provides a novel and useful method to filter out high spatial harmonics from noisy beams.

description: Intriguing sub-TeV tails in the pulsed $γ$-ray emission from the Crab pulsar have been recently discovered by the MAGIC and VERITAS Collaborations. They were not clearly predicted by any pulsar model. It is at present argued that this emission is produced by electrons in the Inverse Compton process occurring either in the outer gap of the pulsar magnetosphere or in the pulsar wind region at some distance from the light cylinder. We analyse another scenario which is consistent with the basic features of this enigmatic emission. It is proposed that this emission is caused by electrons accelerated very close to the light cylinder where the $e^\pm$ plasma can not saturate induced huge electric fields. Electrons reach energies sufficient for production of hard $γ$-ray spectra in the curvature radiation process. Due to different curvature radii of the leading and trailing magnetic field lines, the $γ$-ray spectra from separate pulses should extend to different maximum energies. The scenario can also explain the lower level $γ$-ray emission from the interpulse region (between P1 and P2) observed in the Crab pulsar light curve. Moreover, we argue that pulsars with parameters close to the Vela pulsar should also show pulsed emission with the cut-off at clearly lower energies ($\sim$50 GeV) than that observed in the case of the Crab pulsar. On the other hand, such tail emission is not expected in pulsars with parameters close to the Geminga pulsar. The model also predicts the tail $γ$-ray emission extending up to $\sim$50 GeV from some millisecond pulsars with extreme parameters such as PSR J0218+4243 and PSR J1823-3021A.

description: A logarithmic transform of the convergence field improves `the information content', ie., the overall precision associated with the measurement of the amplitude of the convergence power spectrum by improving the covariance matrix properties. The translation of this improvement in the information content to that in cosmological parameters, such as those associated with dark energy, requires knowing the sensitivity of the log-transformed field to those cosmological parameters. In this paper we use N-body simulations with ray tracing to generate convergence fields at multiple source redshifts as a function of cosmology. The gain in information associated with the log-transformed field does lead to tighter constraints on dark energy parameters, but only if shape noise is neglected. The presence of shape noise quickly diminishes the advantage of the log mapping, more quickly than we would expect based on the information content. With or without shape noise, using a larger pixel size allows for a more efficient log-transformation.

We show that although $\InsDel$ systems can characterize recursively enumerable languages, there exist some regular languages which cannot be obtained as a Szilard language by any $\InsDel$ system. Moreover, $\InsDel$ systems of size $(1, 1, 1; 1, 1, 1)$ (i.e., having insertion/deletion rules where one symbol is inserted/deleted in the contexts with one symbol) can obtain context-sensitive languages which are not context-free as Szilard languages. Any regular and context-free language can be obtained as a homomorphic image of Szilard language of $\InsDel$ systems of size $(1, 1, 1; 1, 1, 0)$ (i.e., having insertion rules where one symbol is inserted in the contexts with one symbol and deletion rules where one symbol is deleted with one symbol in the left-context) and $(3, 1, 1;1, 1, 1)$ (i.e., having insertion rules where three symbols are inserted in the contexts with one symbol and deletion rules where one symbol is deleted in the contexts with one symbol) respectively. Also any recursively enumerable language can be obtained as a homomorphic image of the Szilard language of $\InsDel$ systems of size~$(3, 0, 0; 3, 1,0), (3, 0, 0; 2, 1, 0)$, $(2, 0, 0; 3, 1, 0)$ and $(3, 0, 0; 3, 0, 0)$.

description: We construct the asymptotically flat charged thin-shell wormholes of Lovelock gravity in seven dimensions by cut-and-paste technique, and apply the generalized junction conditions in order to calculate the energy-momentum tensor of these wormholes on the shell. We find that for negative second order and positive third order Lovelock coefficients, there are thin-shell wormholes that respect the weak energy condition. In this case, the amount of normal matter decreases as the third order Lovelock coefficient increases. For positive second and third order Lovelock coefficients, the weak energy condition is violated and the amount of exotic matter decreases as the charge increases. Finally, we perform a linear stability analysis against a symmetry preserving perturbation, and find that the wormholes are stable provided the derivative of surface pressure density with respect to surface energy density is negative and the throat radius is chosen suitable.

Optimizing earthwork block removal in road construction
Creators: name: Koch, Valentin Raphael
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: In road construction, earthwork operations account for about 25% of the construction costs. Existing linear programming models for earthwork logistics optimization are designed to minimize the hauling costs and to balance the earth across the construction site. However, these models do not consider the removal of physical blocks that may influence the earthwork process. In this thesis, we extend the linear programming model of Mayer and Stark (1981) with the addition of a block removal schedule. The resulting model is a mixed-integer linear program. We analyze the model size and the schedule search space in order to make conclusion about the use of the model. Based on structural observations, we introduce a set of algorithms that significantly reduce the solving time of the model. Finally, we conduct numerical experiments to compare our solutions with the solutions of a traditional earthwork process that makes use of linear programming. From our numerical results, we conclude that an optimal removal schedule produces solutions that are 4.1% cheaper on average than a traditional method, with savings that can go as high as 19%. We conclude our discussion with possible extensions to the model, that can help an engineer to design roads that are more economical and ecological with respect to the earthwork operations.

description: Assessing bone age and skeletal maturity and comparing it to chronological age is an important task in the medical environment in diagnosing Pediatric Endocrinology, orthodontics, and orthopedic diseases. The task is also considered important in determining the age of a person who does not have a document in the legal environment. Since this is a time-consuming process that can cause discrepancies among professionals, it is important to use methods that can automate it [9].
title: Derivatives of Regular Expressions with Cuts
Creators: name: Zechner, Niklas
Publisher: name: Institut für Informatik, Justus-Liebig-Universität Giessen
Year: 2020

description: Derivatives of regular expressions are an operation which for a given expression produces an expression for what remains after a specific symbol has been read. This can be used as a step in the process of transforming an expression into a finite string automaton. Cuts are an extension of the ordinary regular expressions; the cut operator is essentially a concatenation without backtracking, formalising a behaviour found in many programming languages. Just as for concatenation, we can also define an iterated cut operator. We show and derive expressions for the derivatives of regular expressions with cuts and iterated cuts.

No Evidence Supporting Flare Driven High-Frequency Global Oscillations

description: The underlying physics that generates the excitations in the global low-frequency, < 5.3 mHz, solar acoustic power spectrum is a well known process that is attributed to solar convection; However, a definitive explanation as to what causes excitations in the high-frequency regime, > 5.3 mHz, has yet to be found. Karoff and Kjeldsen (Astrophys. J. 678, 73-76, 2008) concluded that there is a correlation between solar flares and the global high-frequency solar acoustic waves. We have used the Global Oscillations Network Group (GONG) helioseismic data in an attempt to verify Karoff and Kjeldsen (2008) results as well as compare the post-flare acoustic power spectrum to the pre-flare acoustic power spectrum for 31 solar flares. Among the 31 flares analyzed, we observe that a decrease in acoustic power after the solar flare is just as likely as an increase. Furthermore, while we do observe variations in acoustic power that are most likely associated with the usual p-modes associated with solar convection, these variations do not show any significant temporal association with flares. We find no evidence that consistently supports flare driven high-frequency waves.

description: We report on a giant negative magnetoresistance in very high mobility GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures and quantum wells. The effect is the strongest at $B \simeq 1$ kG, where the magnetoresistivity develops a minimum emerging at $T \lesssim 2$ K. Unlike the zero-field resistivity which saturates at $T \simeq 2 $ K, the resistivity at this minimum continues to drop at an accelerated rate to much lower temperatures and becomes several times smaller than the zero-field resistivity. Unexpectedly, we also find that the effect is destroyed not only by increasing temperature but also by modest in-plane magnetic fields. The analysis shows that giant negative magnetoresistance cannot be explained by existing theories considering interaction-induced or disorder-induced corrections.

description: Purpose: To analyse and compare the dimensional changes of unassisted extraction sockets with alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) techniques and investigate any factors that impact the resorption of the alveolar bone. Materials and methods: A systematic search was conducted to identify randomised clinical trials (RCTs). All data were extracted, and a meta-analysis was performed for the changes in all buccolingual ridge width, midbuccal and midlingual ridge height, and mesial and distal ridge height, and horizontal width at reference points apical to the crestal area. Results: Based on 14 RCTs, the effectiveness of ARP in reducing the dimensions of the postextraction alveolar socket was confirmed. The clinical magnitude of this effect was 1.95 mm in the buccolingual ridge width, 1.62 mm in the midbuccal ridge height, and 1.26 mm on the midlingual ridge height. Additionally, 0.45 mm and 0.34 mm for mesial and distal ridge height, and 1.21 mm, and 0.76 mm for ridge width changes at points 3 and 5 mm apical to the crest were noted. Meta-regression analyses revealed that the reflection of flaps and primary wound coverage during ARP may have detrimental effects on bone remodelling, while no statistical significance was observed for any of the bone graft substitutes or the percentage of molar sockets. Conclusions: Regardless of the protocol, ARP can only minimise ridge resorption. ARP is most effective on horizontal ridge width, providing the most benefit coronally (approximating the crest), followed by the midbuccal ridge height.

description: We have developed a method to equip homodyne interferometers with the capability to operate with constant high sensitivity over many fringes for continuous real-time tracking. The method can be considered as an extension of the "J_1...J_4" methods, and its enhancement to deliver very sensitive angular measurements through Differential Wavefront Sensing is straightforward. Beam generation requires a sinusoidal phase modulation of several radians in one interferometer arm. On a stable optical bench, we have demonstrated a long-term sensitivity over thousands of seconds of 0.1 mrad/sqrt[Hz] that correspond to 20 pm/sqrt[Hz] in length, and 10 nrad/sqrt[Hz] in angle at millihertz frequencies.

description: In this paper we evaluate the Wightman functions associated with a massive quantum scalar field in de Sitter and anti-de Sitter spacetimes in the presence of a cosmic string. Having these functions we calculate the corresponding renormalized vacuum expectation values of the field squared and present the behavior of the contributions induced by the cosmic string as function of the proper distance to it for different values of the parameter which codify the presence of this linear topological defect.

A Kantian Defense of Abortion Rights with Respect for Intrauterine Life
Creators: name: Manninen, Bertha Alvarez
Publisher: name: Diametros
Year: 2014

description: In this paper, I appeal to two aspects of Immanuel Kant’s philosophy – his metaphysics and ethics – in defense of abortion rights. Many Kantian pro-life philosophers argue that Kant’s second principle formulation of the categorical imperative, which proscribes treating persons as mere means, applies to human embryos and fetuses. Kant is clear, however, that he means his imperatives to apply to persons, individuals of a rational nature. It is important to determine, therefore, whether there is anything in Kant’s philosophy that permits regarding embryos and fetuses as persons, since they lack the capacity for sentience (at least until mid-gestation), let alone rational thought. In the first part of the paper, I will illustrate why there are difficulties maintaining, from a Kantian perspective, that conception marks the genesis of a new person. Even granting that embryos and fetuses are persons, however, this alone would not entail the moral impermissibility of abortion rights, mainly because prohibiting abortion, and compelling women to gestate, violates the formula of humanity against them. Developing this thesis encompasses the second part of my essay. Finally, although I argue that Kant’s philosophy lends strong support to abortion rights, this does not thereby entail that it allows for the complete dehumanization of the human fetus. By appealing to the writings of Kantian scholar Allen Wood, I will argue that a fetus’ status as a potential person does render it worthy of some degree of respect and moral value.

description: From 1883 until the autumn of 1889, Canadian Kainai (Blood Indians) waged cross-border warfare against American A’aninin (Gros Ventres) and Nakota (Assiniboine) of the Fort Belknap Agency in northeastern Montana. Enmity between these indigenous plains peoples had carried over from hostilities at the end of buffalo days and was perpetuated due to a strong continuity of warrior and equestrian culture in the 1880s, which endured despite efforts of the Canadian Dominion Government to “civilize” their Blackfoot wards through Christianity and agriculture. The few historians who have studied this little known conflict have emphasized the success of the North West Mounted Police (NWMP) in ending it. However, this thesis will demonstrate that NWMP efforts were often ineffective and the reasons behind the Kainai decision to end the hostilities were complex, encompassing environmental change and an independent modification of cultural ethos. This thesis illuminates this conflict, its causes, and its resolution.

description: Yoga is union. Sometimes defined in contemporary culture as a union between mind and body, it is in fact the union between our selves and the hidden sources of phenomenal reality. One of the primary features of a state of Yoga is a silent mind: meditation. My practice uses meditation as a creative instrument to generate forms and images that reflect or transmit an inner life and evolution. In particular, plastic elements like line, rhythm, colour and space can express a subtle knowledge, an "inner" knowledge which is spiritual, or non-phenomenal in nature. A key function of mental silence in the studio is to enable a state I call “vibrant flow” in which limiting ideas and conditionings are restricted in their ability to interfere with intuition’s hints from beyond the rational, time bound mind.
