An O(n2) time algorithm for alternating Büchi games
Creators: name: Chatterjee, Krishnendu

Publisher: name: IST Austria
Year: 2011
Subjects: 000 Computer science, knowledge & general works

description: Computing the winning set for Büchi objectives in alternating games on graphs is a central problem in computer aided verification with a large number of applications. The long standing best known upper bound for solving the problem is ̃O(n·m), where n is the number of vertices and m is the number of edges in the graph. We are the first to break the ̃O(n·m) boundary by presenting a new technique that reduces the running time to O(n2). This bound also leads to O(n2) time algorithms for computing the set of almost-sure winning vertices for Büchi objectives (1) in alternating games with probabilistic transitions (improving an earlier bound of O(n·m)), (2) in concurrent graph games with constant actions (improving an earlier bound of O(n3)), and (3) in Markov decision processes (improving for m > n4/3 an earlier bound of O(min(m1.5, m·n2/3)). We also show that the same technique can be used to compute the maximal end-component decomposition of a graph in time O(n2), which is an improvement over earlier bounds for m > n4/3. Finally, we show how to maintain the winning set for Büchi objectives in alternating games under a sequence of edge insertions or a sequence of edge deletions in O(n) amortized time per operation. This is the first dynamic algorithm for this problem.

description: When a superconducting tunnel junction at a finite voltage is irradiated with microwaves, the interplay between the alternating Josephson current and the ac field gives rise to steps in the dc current known as Shapiro steps. In this work we predict that in a mesoscopic structure connected to several superconducting terminals one can induce Shapiro-like steps in the absence of any external radiation simply by tuning the voltages of the leads. To illustrate this effect we make quantitative predictions for a three-terminal structure which comprises a diffusive superconductor-normal metal-superconductor junction and a tunneling probe, a set-up which can be realized experimentally.

description: In a typical community supported agriculture (CSA), members pledge to help cover the anticipated costs of the farm’s production for part or all of the growing season. In return, the members receive a portion of
the farm’s crops over the period of time specified in the CSA membership agreement, usually summer through early fall. The CSA model allows farmers to get needed capital at the start of the growing season while providing members with fresh locally produced fruits, herbs, meats, or vegetables. This guide provides an overview of what owners and members should include in the agreement.

On the Relationship between Four-Dimensionalism and Perdurance
Creators: name: Luchetti, Michele
Publisher: name: Rivista Italiana di Filosofia Analitica Junior
Year: 2014

description: ABSTRACT

A relevant part of the literature about the metaphysical problem of persistence of concrete particulars exhibits, I believe, too much freedom as far as the use of terms like “Four-Dimensionalism”, “Perdurantism” and “Doctrine of temporal parts” is concerned. This attitude clashes against the rigorous and valid arguments of many four-dimensionalist views and it is mainly due to a lack of precision on the four-dimensionalist side.

In this work I analyse Parsons’ (2000) attempt to clarify the content of these notions. His clarification, based on the postulation of a difference between temporal parts and temporal extent, is aimed at demonstrating that Four-Dimensionalism and Perdurantism have not the same content and are not tied by any apriori connection.

I endorse Parsons’ clarification as legitimate from a logical and semantic point of view, but I maintain that, despite his useful distinction between Perdurantism as a theory of persistence and Four-Dimensionalism as a theory of extension, these doctrines are ultimately equivalent, when it comes to formulating a general view about material objects. Indeed, I argue that objects extended four-dimensionally necessarily persist by perduring, and perduring objects necessarily extend four-dimensionally in space-time.

description: The significance of NNLO (3-loop) QCD contributions to the flavor non-singlet sector of F_2^ep and F_2^ed has been studied as compared to uncertainties (different factorization schemes, higher twist and QED contributions) of standard NLO (and LO) QCD analyses. The latter effects turn out to be comparable in size to the NNLO contributions. Therefore the minute NNLO effects are not observable with presently available data on non-singlet structure functions.

Η Διπλωματική εξετάζει τα κριτήρια που πρέπει να τηρεί μία εταιρία (ανεξαρτήτως κλάδου) ώστε να προσελκύει και να διατηρεί ταλαντούχα στελέχη. Όπως είναι φυσικό, η φήμη μιας εταιρίας ως εργοδότη είναι αλληλένδετα συνδεδεμένη με την πολιτική που αυτή ακολουθεί στη διαχείριση του ανθρώπινου δυναμικού της. Για παράδειγμα ο τρόπος ανταμοιβής, οι εργασιακές σχέσεις και η ασφάλιση των εργαζομένων αποτελούν παράγοντες που αξιολογούνται ως ιδιαίτερα σημαντικοί από τους υποψήφιους εργαζομένους. Στα πλαίσια της παρούσας Διπλωματικής διεξήχθη έρευνα με σκοπό τον εντοπισμό των σημαντικότερων παραγόντων που καθιστούν μια εταιρία ελκυστική ως εργοδότη στην ελληνική αγορά. Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας μπορούν να αποτελέσουν μια χρήσιμη πηγή πληροφοριών για τους επίδοξους εργοδότες προκειμένου να αναπτύξουν επιτυχημένες στρατηγικές employer branding, να ενισχύσουν την εταιρική τους φήμη και να εντάξουν ταλαντούχα νέα στελέχη στο ανθρώπινο δυναμικό τους
description: The purpose of this study is to analyze the methods of achieving positive corporate reputation and to explore the factors that can contribute to its optimization. The paper examines the criteria that a company (regardless of industry) must observe in order to attract and retain talented executives. Of course, the reputation of a company as an employer is interlinked with its policy of managing its human resources. For example, reward, labor relations and employee insurance are factors that are considered to be particularly important by prospective workers. In the context of this thesis, a survey was carried out to identify the most important factors that make a company attractive as an employer in the Greek market. Research results can be a useful source of information for aspiring employers to develop successful employer branding strategies, enhance their corporate reputation, and integrate talented new executives into their human resources
Mondi di Wittgenstein. Metaontologia del "Tractatus" e teoria dei truthmakers di Armstrong
Creators: name: Cuconato, Simone
Publisher: name: Rivista Italiana di Filosofia Analitica Junior
Year: 2014

description: La “svolta ontologica” che contraddistingue l’odierna filosofia analitica ha consentito, attraverso il rigore logico e argomentativo, la ripresa di temi e problemi della bimillenaria tradizione filosofica. In particolare, grazie al confronto con uno dei principali interpreti di tale svolta, David Armstrong, si è analizzata l’ontologia e la metafisica del "Tractatus logico-philosophicus" attraverso le nozioni di: mondo contratto, combinatorialismo e truthmaker. Nel dettaglio, si è “sollevato” il problema riguardo la priorità ontologica tra fatti e oggetti semplici. Tale tensione si è rivelata insuperabile attraverso la sola analisi ontologico-metafisica: da un lato, infatti, ai fini della sensatezza di una proposizione, è stata assegnata la priorità ontologica agli oggetti; dall’altro, invece, gli oggetti si sono mostrati come “semplici finzioni”, frutto di un preciso processo di astrazione dai rispettivi fatti. La radice del problema è stata, pertanto, individuata in questioni di natura metaontologica: solamente attraverso l’analisi del predicato “esiste” è stato possibile superare la tensione sopra indicata. In particolare, grazie alla truthmaking question “cosa, nel mondo, rende vera una proposizione p?”, è stato possibile assegnare il primato ontologico agli stati di cose sussistenti. Al tempo stesso però, simulando il “catalogo universale” di un abitante di uno dei mondi contratti, si è mostrato che la dipendenza ontologica degli oggetti non ne implica necessariamente un’esistenza finzionale. L’articolo, pertanto, conduce un’analisi esegetica e teoretica del "Tractatus" attraverso gli strumenti dell’odierna metafisica analitica.

description: The wave function was proposed for description of quantum phenomena on the atomic level. But now it is well known that quantum phenomena are observed not only on atomic level and the wave function is used for description of macroscopic quantum phenomena, such as superconductivity. The essence of the wave function on level elementary particles was and is the subject of heated argument among founders of quantum mechanics and other physicists. This essence seems more clear in superconductor. But impossibility of probabilistic interpretation of wave function in this case results to obvious contradiction of quantum principles with some fundamental principles of physics.

description: A search technique locating network modules, i.e., internally densely connected groups of nodes in directed networks is introduced by extending the Clique Percolation Method originally proposed for undirected networks. After giving a suitable definition for directed modules we investigate their percolation transition in the Erdos-Renyi graph both analytically and numerically. We also analyse four real-world directed networks, including Google's own webpages, an email network, a word association graph and the transcriptional regulatory network of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The obtained directed modules are validated by additional information available for the nodes. We find that directed modules of real-world graphs inherently overlap and the investigated networks can be classified into two major groups in terms of the overlaps between the modules. Accordingly, in the word-association network and among Google's webpages the overlaps are likely to contain in-hubs, whereas the modules in the email and transcriptional regulatory networks tend to overlap via out-hubs.

What is the nature of properties?
Creators: name: Azzano, Lorenzo
Publisher: name: Rivista Italiana di Filosofia Analitica Junior
Year: 2014

description: In the recent debate about the nature of properties, dispositional essentialism, which claims that a property possesses its powers essentially, seems to provide an interesting alternative to the quite simple and problematic view that properties are to be identified through primitive qualities, quidditates (this position may be called quidditism). However, it is not easy to characterize explicitly and uncontroversially dispositional essentialism, in particular when it comes to the treatment of powers. A further reference to primitive qualities may prove to be unavoidable, thus suggesting a medium between quidditism and dispositional
essentialism.
Whatever means are used in the explanation of a property’s nature, the resort to a rock-bottom entity like a quidditas seems to be the only way to avoid a regress.

description: Motivated by the abundance of directed synaptic couplings in a real biological neuronal network, we investigate the synchronization behavior of the Hodgkin-Huxley model in a directed network. We start from the standard model of the Watts-Strogatz undirected network and then change undirected edges to directed arcs with a given probability, still preserving the connectivity of the network. A generalized clustering coefficient for directed networks is defined and used to investigate the interplay between the synchronization behavior and underlying structural properties of directed networks. We observe that the directedness of complex networks plays an important role in emerging dynamical behaviors, which is also confirmed by a numerical study of the sociological game theoretic voter model on directed networks.

L’intento dell’articolo non è di trovare un possibile criterio per stabilire l’identità o meno di un oggetto nel tempo, bensì di capire se questo problema sia di pertinenza dell’ontologia, intesa come quella parte della filosofia che si occupa di rispondere alla domanda «che cosa c’è?», oppure della metafisica, intesa come quella parte della filosofia che si occupa di rispondere alla domanda «che cosa è?». Di primo acchito sembra che sia la metafisica a doversene occupare, ma attraverso l’esame delle teorie metafisiche tridimensionaliste e quadridimensionaliste, e di
quella sequenzialista, a metà fra ontologia e metafisica, cercherò di mostrare come le cose stiano diversamente: la tesi qui sostenuta è che sia la metafisica che l’ontologia sono rilevanti nella questione dell’identità diacronica, ma che l’ontologia è in questo caso prioritaria rispetto alla metafisica.

description: In time-resolved Faraday rotation experiments we have detected an inplane anisotropy of the electron spin-dephasing time (SDT) in an $n$--modulation-doped GaAs/Al$_{0.3}$Ga$_{0.7}$As single quantum well. The SDT was measured with magnetic fields of $B\le 1$ T, applied in the $[110]$ and $[1\bar{1}0]$ inplane crystal directions of the GaAs quantum well. For fields along $[1\bar{1}0]$, we have found an up to a factor of about 2 larger SDT than in the perpendicular direction. Fully microscopic calculations, by numerically solving the kinetic spin Bloch equations considering the D'yakonov-Perel' and the Bir-Aronov-Pikus mechanisms, reproduce the experimental findings quantitatively. This quantitative analysis of the data allowed us to determine the relative strengths of Rashba and Dresselhaus terms in our sample. Moreover, we could estimate the SDT for spins aligned in the $[110]$ {\em inplane} direction to be on the order of several nanoseconds, which is up to two orders of magnitude larger than that in the perpendicular {\em inplane} direction.

description: We investigate the decay of vortices in a rotating cylindrical sample of 3He-B, after rotation has been stopped. With decreasing temperature vortex annihilation slows down as the damping in vortex motion, the mutual friction dissipation α(T), decreases almost exponentially. Remanent vortices then survive for increasingly long periods, while they move towards annihilation in zero applied flow. After a waiting period Δt at zero flow, rotation is reapplied and the remnants evolve to rectilinear vortices. By counting these lines, we measure at temperatures above the transition to turbulence ~0.6T_c the number of remnants as a function of α(T) and Δt. At temperatures below the transition to turbulence T \lesssim 0.55 T_c, remnants expanding in applied flow become unstable and generate in a turbulent burst the equilibrium number of vortices. Here we measure the onset temperature T_on of turbulence as a function of Δt, applied flow velocity, and length of sample L.

The role of toxic shock syndrome Toxin-1 and Staphylococcal Enterotoxin A in the pathogenesis of toxic shock syndrome
Creators: name: Chang, Alex Hongsheng
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a multisystem disease associated with S. aureus infection. Toxic shock syndrometoxin-1 (TSST-1) is implicated in the majority but not all cases. We have previously demonstrated that sero \conversion to staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) is also more prevalent in TSS than in non-TSS cases, suggesting its possible role in TSS. Previous studies have demonstrated that TSST-1 and SEA are super antigens, which bind directly to class II molecules on antigen presenting cells, and stimulates T cells bearing specific VB sequences. Whether there are direct binding sites for TSST-1 and SEA on human resting T cells remains unclear. Three approaches were taken to further examine the role of TSST-1 and SEA in the pathogenesis of TSS: a) to detect TSST-1 and staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) in the culture supernatants of S. aureus by ELISA method, in order to study the production of TSST-1and SEA among 350 isolates of S. aureus collected from TSS patients and other individuals; b) to characterize the distribution of these isolates by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis at 19 enzyme chromosomal loci; and c) to characterize receptor-mediated binding of TSST-1 and SEA to human T cells, to confirm whether there are direct TSST-1and SEA binding sites on resting T lymphocytes, to study the [More abstract follows]

description: A q-deformed version of classical analysis is given to quantum spaces of physical importance, i.e. Manin plane, q-deformed Euclidean space in three or four dimensions, and q-deformed Minkowski space. The subject is presented in a rather complete and selfcontained way. All relevant notions are introduced and explained in detail. The different possibilities to realize the objects of q-deformed analysis are discussed and their elementary properties are studied. In this manner attention is focused on star products, q-deformed tensor products, q-deformed translations, q-deformed partial derivatives, dual pairings, q-deformed exponentials, and q-deformed integration. The main concern of this work is to show that these objects fit together in a consistent framework, which is suitable to formulate physical theories on quantum spaces.

description: H2 formation in metal-free gas occurs via the intermediate H- or H2+ ions. Destruction of these ions by photodissociation therefore serves to suppress H2 formation. In this paper, I highlight the fact that several processes that occur in ionized primordial gas produce photons energetic enough to photodissociate H- or H2+ and outline how to compute the photodissociation rates produced by a particular distribution of ionized gas. I also show that there are circumstances of interest, such as during the growth of HII regions around the first stars, in which this previously overlooked form of radiative feedback is of considerable importance.

description: On this thesis we worked on the stability of the planetary three-body problem. We checked both stability and instability criteria with our main goal being to either confirm or deny their validity. The paper will go as follows. Firstly, we will make a small introduction on the three-body problem. Then we will describe the general idea of every criterion we investigated starting with Bozis' (1981) criterion of escape. Following that, we will touch on Bozis-Marchal's (1980) and Gladman's (1993) Hill stability criteria. We will continue with the most recent one from Laskar-Petit (2017) describing AMD-stability. That will be followed by a number of numerical data and figures. Finally, we will close with our results and conclusions

Helium 2 3S - 2 1S metrology at 1557 nm
Creators: name: van Leeuwen, K. A. H.

Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Atomic Physics (physics.atom-ph)

description: An experiment is proposed to excite the 'forbidden' 1s2s 3S1 - 1s2s 1S0 magnetic dipole (M1) transition at 1557 nm in a collimated and slow atomic beam of metastable helium atoms. It is demonstrated that an excitation rate of 5000 /s can be realised with the beam of a 2W narrowband telecom fiber laser intersecting the atomic beam perpendicularly. A Doppler-limited sub-MHz spectroscopic linewidth is anticipated. Doppler-free excitation of 2% of trapped and cooled atoms may be realised in a one-dimensional optical lattice geometry, using the 2W laser both for trapping and spectroscopy. The very small (8 Hz) natural linewidth of this transition presents an opportunity for accurate tests of atomic structure calculations of the helium atom. A measurement of the 3He - 4He isotope shift allows for accurate determination of the difference in nuclear charge radius of both isotopes.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας διπλωματικής εργασίας είναι η διερεύνηση της συμπεριφοράς των (αντι)υπερονίων στο πλαίσιο της θεωρίας του μέσου πεδίου που εξαρτάται από την ορμή. Η μελέτη επικεντρώνεται στον ρόλο των υπερονίων στην πυκνή πυρηνική ύλη, η οποία είναι καίριας σημασίας για την κατανόηση των ιδιοτήτων των αστέρων νετρονίων και των συγκρούσεων βαρέων ιόντων. Το θεωρητικό πλαίσιο που χρησιμοποιείται συνδυάζει στοιχεία της σχετικιστικής θεωρίας μέσου πεδίου και μοντέλων μη γραμμικών παραγώγων. Αυτές οι προσεγγίσεις εφαρμόζονται για την ανάλυση των οπτικών δυναμικών των υπερονίων και των αντι-υπερονίων ως συναρτήσεις της ορμής τους τόσο στη συμμετρική πυρηνική ύλη όσο και στην καθαρή ύλη νετρονίων σε διάφορες πυκνότητες. Αναλύεται επίσης ο μαθηματικός φορμαλισμός που περιγράφει τη Θεωρία Πεδίου και οι βασικές αρχές της Σχετικιστικής Μέσης Θεωρίας Πεδίου. Τα βασικά αποτελέσματα περιλαμβάνουν τη σύγκριση προβλέψεων μοντέλων μη γραμμικών παραγώγων με πρόσφατους υπολογισμούς κβαντικής χρωμοδυναμικής πλέγματος και χειραλικής αποτελεσματικής θεωρίας πεδίου. Τα ευρήματα παρέχουν πληροφορίες για τις αλληλεπιδράσεις και τη σταθερότητα των υπερονίων σε πυκνά περιβάλλοντα, συμβάλλοντας στην ευρύτερη κατανόηση της πυρηνικής και σωματιδιακής φυσικής. Αυτή η εργασία αντιπροσωπεύει ένα σημαντικό βήμα στην ανάπτυξη πιο ακριβών μοντέλων για την περιγραφή της υπερωνικής ύλης σε ακραίες συνθήκες.
description: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the behavior of (anti)hyperons within the framework of momentum-dependent mean fields. The study focuses on the role of hyperons in dense nuclear matter, which is crucial for understanding the properties of neutron stars and heavy-ion collisions. The theoretical framework employed combines elements of relativistic mean-field (RMF) theory and non-linear derivative (NLD) models. These approaches are applied to analyze the optical potentials of hyperons and anti-hyperons as functions of their momentum in both symmetric nuclear matter and pure neutron matter at various densities. The mathematical formalism that describes the Field Theory and the basic principles of the Relativistic Mean Field Theory are also analyzed. Key results include the comparison of NLD model predictions with recent lattice QCD and chiral effective field theory (χ-EFT) calculations. The findings provide insights into the interactions and stability of hyperons in dense environments, contributing to the broader understanding of nuclear and particle physics. This work represents a significant step in the development of more accurate models for describing hyperonic matter in extreme conditions.

Decidable problems for probabilistic automata on infinite words
Creators: name: Chatterjee, Krishnendu
name: Tracol, Mathieu
Publisher: name: IST Austria
Year: 2011
Subjects: 000 Computer science, knowledge & general works

description: We consider probabilistic automata on infinite words with acceptance defined by parity conditions. We consider three qualitative decision problems: (i) the positive decision problem asks whether there is a word that is accepted with positive probability; (ii) the almost decision problem asks whether there is a word that is accepted with probability 1; and (iii) the limit decision problem asks whether for every ε > 0 there is a word that is accepted with probability at least 1 − ε. We unify and generalize several decidability results for probabilistic automata over infinite words, and identify a robust (closed under union and intersection) subclass of probabilistic automata for which all the qualitative decision problems are decidable for parity conditions. We also show that if the input words are restricted to lasso shape words, then the positive and almost problems are decidable for all probabilistic automata with parity conditions.
Large-scale neural recordings call for new insights to link brain and behavior

description: Neuroscientists today can measure activity from more neurons than ever before, and are facing the challenge of connecting these brain-wide neural recordings to computation and behavior. Here, we first describe emerging tools and technologies being used to probe large-scale brain activity and new approaches to characterize behavior in the context of such measurements. We next highlight insights obtained from large-scale neural recordings in diverse model systems, and argue that some of these pose a challenge to traditional theoretical frameworks. Finally, we elaborate on existing modelling frameworks to interpret these data, and argue that interpreting brain-wide neural recordings calls for new theoretical approaches that may depend on the desired level of understanding at stake. These advances in both neural recordings and theory development will pave the way for critical advances in our understanding of the brain.

description: Proximity of two different materials leads to an intricate coupling of quasiparticles so that an unprecedented electronic state is often realized at the interface. Here, we demonstrate a resonance-type many-body ground state in graphene, a non-magnetic two-dimensional Dirac semimetal, when grown on SmB6, a Kondo insulator, via thermal decomposition of fullerene molecules. This ground state is typically observed in three-dimensional magnetic materials with correlated electrons. Above the characteristic Kondo temperature of the substrate, the electron band structure of pristine graphene remains almost intact. As temperature decreases, however, the Dirac fermions of graphene become hybridized with the Sm 4f states. Remarkable enhancement of the hybridization and Kondo resonance is observed with further cooling and increasing charge carrier density of graphene, evidencing the Kondo screening of the Sm 4f local magnetic moment by the conduction electrons of graphene at the interface. These findings manifest the realization of the Kondo effect in graphene by the proximity of SmB6 that is tuned by temperature and charge carrier density of graphene.

Quenching of Leading Jets and Particles: the p_t Dependent Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect from Nonlinear k_t Factorization

description: We report the first derivation of the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect for leading jets at fixed values of the transverse momentum p_t in the beam fragmentation region of hadron-nucleus collisions from RHIC (Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider) to LHC (Large Hadron Collider). The major novelty of this work is a derivation of the missing virtual radiative pQCD correction to these processes - the real-emission radiative corrections are already available in the literature. We manifestly implement the unitarity relation, which in the simplest form requires that upon summing over the virtual and real-emission corrections the total number of scattered quarks must exactly equal unity. For the free-nucleon target, the leading jet spectrum is shown to satisfy the familiar linear Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov leading log(1/x) (LL-1/x) evolution. For nuclear targets, the nonlinear k_t-factorization for the LL-1/x evolution of the leading jet sepctrum is shown to exactly match the equally nonlinear LL-1/x evolution of the collective nuclear glue - there emerges a unique linear k_t-factorization relation between the two nonlinear evolving nuclear observables. We argue that within the standard dilute uncorrelated nucleonic gas treatment of heavy nuclei, in the finite energy range from RHIC to LHC, the leading jet spectrum can be evolved in the LL-1/x Balitsky-Kovchegov approximation. We comment on the extension of these results to, and their possible reggeon field theory interpretation for, mid-rapidity jets at LHC.

description: The field of siblings relationship, initially considered in psychoanalysis mostly in its interaction with the oedipal dynamics, knows today important developments so that the "fraternal complex" has achieved its own independence.
 The paper aims to investigate the “fraternal complex” both in psychoanalytic area , from the Freudian perspective to contemporary authors, and in myth and literature. It is traced the birth and development of this concept showing how its different facets had been largely anticipated by the myth, especially Jewish myth. The second part of the article focuses on a literary example, “Strange Shores" by A. Indriðason, that offers many ideas to explore some of the dynamics of the fraternal complex in its intersection with fundamental issues in the field of psychoanalysis as the symbol, the double, the shadow, the guilt and the mourning.
