description: This paper shows how DATR, a widely used formal language for lexical knowledge representation, can be used to define an LTAG lexicon as an inheritance hierarchy with internal lexical rules. A bottom-up featural encoding is used for LTAG trees and this allows lexical rules to be implemented as covariation constraints within feature structures. Such an approach eliminates the considerable redundancy otherwise associated with an LTAG lexicon.

Optimal treatment for a phase field system of Cahn-Hilliard type modeling tumor growth by asymptotic scheme
Creators: name: Signori, Andrea
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We consider a particular phase field system which physical context is that of tumor growth dynamics. The model we deal with consists of a Cahn-Hilliard type equation governing the evolution of the phase variable which takes into account the tumor cells proliferation in the tissue coupled with a reaction-diffusion equation for the nutrient. This model has already been investigated from the viewpoint of well-posedness, long time behavior, and asymptotic analyses as some parameters go to zero. Starting from these results, we aim to face a related optimal control problem by employing suitable asymptotic schemes. In this direction, further assumptions have to be required. Mainly, we ought to impose some quite general growth conditions for the involved potential and a smallness restriction for a parameter appearing in the system we are going to face. We provide existence of optimal controls and a necessary condition that an optimal control has to satisfy has been characterized as well.
Exact solutions and triviality of lambda (phi^*phi)^2 theory in the Feshbach-Villars formulation

description: The complex scalar quantum field theory with a lambda (phi^*phi)^2 interaction is considered in the Feshbach-Villars formulation. It is shown that exact few-particle eigenstates of the QFT Hamiltonian can be obtained. The resulting relativistic few-body equations correspond to Klein-Gordon particles interacting via delta-function, or ``contact'', potentials. Momentum-space solutions of the two-body equation yield a `trivial' unity S-matrix.

description: Assessing the quality of an evolving knowledge base is a challenging task as it often requires to identify correct quality assessment procedures. Since data is often derived from autonomous, and increasingly large data sources, it is impractical to manually curate the data, and challenging to continuously and automatically assess their quality. In this paper, we explore two main areas of quality assessment related to evolving knowledge bases: (i) identification of completeness issues using knowledge base evolution analysis, and (ii) identification of consistency issues based on integrity constraints, such as minimum and maximum cardinality, and range constraints. For completeness analysis, we use data profiling information from consecutive knowledge base releases to estimate completeness measures that allow predicting quality issues. Then, we perform consistency checks to validate the results of the completeness analysis using integrity constraints and learning models. The approach has been tested both quantitatively and qualitatively by using a subset of datasets from both DBpedia and 3cixty knowledge bases. The performance of the approach is evaluated using precision, recall, and F1 score. From completeness analysis, we observe a 94% precision for the English DBpedia KB and 95% precision for the 3cixty Nice KB. We also assessed the performance of our consistency analysis by using five learning models over three sub-tasks, namely minimum cardinality, maximum cardinality, and range constraint. We observed that the best performing model in our experimental setup is the Random Forest, reaching an F1 score greater than 90% for minimum and maximum cardinality and 84% for range constraints.

description: Το ραδόνιο (Rn) είναι ένα φυσικό άχρωμο, άοσμο, ευγενές ραδιενεργό αέριο και αποτελεί τη σημαντικότερη πηγή ιονίζουσας ακτινοβολίας. Προέρχεται από συγκεντρώσεις ουρανίου και θυγατρικών του σε πετρώματα, έδαφος και ύδατα και τείνει να συγκεντρώνεται σε κλειστούς χώρους όπως υπόγεια ορυχεία, σπήλαια αλλά και κατοικίες. Η συγκέντρωση ραδονίου στους παραπάνω χώρους, συμβάλλει σημαντικά στη αύξηση της δόσης της ιονίζουσας ακτινοβολίας που λαμβάνει ο άνθρωπος. Για τη μέτρηση της συγκέντρωσης του ραδονίου χρησιμοποιούνται διάφορες μέθοδοι, οι οποίες ταξινομούνται ανάλογα με το αν καταγράφουν το ραδόνιο ή τα θυγατρικά του, τον απαιτούμενο χρόνο μέτρησης και την ύπαρξη ή όχι συνεχούς πηγής ενέργειας του οργάνου μέτρησης.
Η παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία έχει ως στόχο, να συγκρίνει τους τρόπους καταμέτρησης συγκέντρωσης ραδονίου σε σπήλαια, που πραγματοποιούνται μέσω διαφορετικών τύπων παθητικών ανιχνευτών καταγραφής ιχνών (Solid-State Nuclear Track Detector’s, SSNTD’s) οι οποίοι χρησιμοποιούνται διεθνώς. Για την αποτελεσματική σύγκριση και αξιολόγηση της συγκέντρωσης ραδονίου, με την παθητική αυτή μέθοδο έγινε χρήση δεδομένων από την διεθνή βιβλιογραφία. Συνολικά μελετήθηκαν και ταξινομήθηκαν οι μέθοδοι μέτρησης της συγκέντρωσης του ραδονίου σε εξήντα μία (61) δημοσιευμένες εργασίες που έχουν τύχει των περισσοτέρων αναφορών στην διεθνή βιβλιογραφία, που αναφέρονται σε μετρήσεις συγκέντρωσης ραδονίου με SSNTD’s σε 381 διαφορετικά σπήλαια, κατανεμημένα ανά τον κόσμο. Όπως προκύπτει από τα στοιχεία των εργασιών που χρησιμοποιήθηκαν φαίνεται οι ανιχνευτές CR-39 να είναι οι πλέον χρησιμοποιούμενοι παθητικοί ανιχνευτές παγκοσμίως αγγίζοντας το 54,55%. Με διαφορά ακολουθούν οι ανιχνευτές τύπου LR-115 με 33,33% με βάση τα στοιχεία από τα δεδομένα των εργασιών που χρησιμοποιήθηκαν και τέλος οι υπόλοιποι ανιχνευτές SSNT στο σύνολο τους προσεγγίζουν το 12,12%. Εκτός της ανωτέρω κατάταξης καταγράφηκαν ιδιομορφίες, ακραίες και μέσες τιμές της συγκέντρωσης ραδονίου στα σπήλαια που έχουν μελετηθεί στις εργασίες που χρησιμοποιήθηκαν. Ιδιαίτερη βαρύτητα δόθηκε στην καταγραφή, επεξεργασία και των λόγων για τους οποίους πραγματοποιήθηκαν οι μελέτες αυτές τα αποτελέσματα των οποίων δημοσιεύτηκαν σε διεθνή ειδικευμένα περιοδικά. Όπως προέκυψε η πλειοψηφία των εργασιών αφορούσε στην επίδραση των διαφορετικών χωροχρονικών συγκεντρώσεων ραδονίου στα σπήλαια στην ανθρώπινη υγεία και κυρίως των ατόμων που εργάζονταν εντός των σπηλαίων (ξεναγοί, κ.λπ.). Περαιτέρω λόγοι για τους οποίους έχουν γίνει έρευνες είναι ο προσδιορισμός της συμπεριφοράς των συγκεντρώσεων ραδονίου εντός των σπηλαίων, η σύγκριση των μεθόδων μεταξύ διάφορων τύπων ανιχνευτών ραδονίου καθώς και η συσχέτιση των τιμών συγκέντρωσης  ραδονίου στα σπήλαια είτε με την ύπαρξη φυσικών γεωλογικών δομών όπως τα ρήγματα ή/και γεωλογικών φαινομένων όπως οι σεισμοί.

Chiral ordered phases in a frustrated S=1 chain with uniaxial single-ion-type anisotropy

Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: The ground-state phase transitions of a frustrated S=1 Heisenberg chain with the uniaxial single-ion-type anisotropy and the frustrating next-nearest-neighbor coupling are studied. For the system, it has been shown that there are gapless and gapped chiral phases in which the chirality κ_l = S^x_l S^y_{l+1} - S^y_l S^x_{l+1} exhibits a finite long-range order (LRO) and the spin correlation decays either algebraically or exponentially. In this study, the transitions between the Haldane and chiral phase and between the large-D (LD) and chiral phase are investigated using the infinite-system density-matrix renormalization group method. It is found that there exist two types of gapped chiral phases, "chiral Haldane" and "chiral LD" phases, in which the string LRO coexists with the chiral LRO and the string correlation decays exponentially, respectively.

description: In extended models of gravity a nonminimal coupling to matter has been assumed to lead to irreversible particle creation. In this paper we challenge this assumption. We argue that a non-minimal coupling of the matter and gravitational sectors results in a change in particle-momentum on a cosmological timescale, irrespective of particle creation or decay. We further argue that particle creation or decay associated with a non-minimal coupling to gravity could only happen as a result of significant deviations from a homogeneous Friedmann-Robertson-Walker geometry on microscopic scales, and provide a phenomenological description of the impact of particle creation or decay on the cosmological evolution of the density of the matter fields.

description: We investigate the electronic structure of a two-dimensional electron gas created at the surface of the multi-valley semimetal 1T-PtSe$_2$. Using angle-resolved photoemission and first-principles-based surface space charge calculations, we show how the induced quantum well subband states form multiple Fermi surfaces which exhibit highly anisotropic Rashba-like spin splittings. We further show how the presence of both electron- and hole-like bulk carriers causes the near-surface band bending potential to develop an unusual non-monotonic form, with spatially-segregated electron accumulation and hole accumulation regions, which in turn amplifies the induced spin splitting. Our results thus demonstrate the novel environment that semimetals provide for tailoring electrostatically-induced potential profiles and their corresponding quantum subband states

description: We study the robustness of 3D intrinsic topogical order under external perturbations by investigating the paradigmatic microscopic model, the 3D toric code in an external magnetic field. Exact dualities as well as variational calculations reveal a ground-state phase diagram with first and second-order quantum phase transitions. The variational approach can be applied without further approximations only for certain field directions. In the general field case, an approximative scheme based on an expansion of the variational energy in orders of the variational parameters is developed. For the breakdown of the 3D intrinsic topological order, it is found that the (im-)mobility of the quasiparticle excitations is crucial in contrast to their fractional statistics.

description: SnTe belongs to the recently discovered class of topological crystalline insulators. Here we study the formation of line defects which break crystalline symmetry by strain in thin SnTe films. Strained SnTe(111) films are grown by molecular beam epitaxy on lattice- and thermal expansion coefficient-mismatched CdTe. To analyze the structural properties of the SnTe films we applied {\em in-situ} reflection high energy electron diffraction, x-ray reflectometry, high resolution x-ray diffraction, reciprocal space mapping, and scanning tunneling microscopy. This comprehensive analytical approach reveals a twinned structure, tensile strain, bilayer surface steps and dislocation line defects forming a highly ordered dislocation network for thick films with local strains up to 31\% breaking the translational crystal symmetry.

DETERMINING SUFFICIENT CONTACT TIME AND EFFECTIVENESS FOR RISK GROUP 3 AND 4 VIRUSES USING VARIOUS VIRAL DISINFECTANTS
Creators: name: Spencer, James Edward
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2016

description: The increased number of biocontainment facilities (BSL-3, BSL-4) throughout the world has led to an expansion of research conducted with dangerous viral pathogens that, if released into the environment, could cause serious illness or death in community members or livestock. As this work is specifically focused on the treatment and prevention of such diseases, special precautions are taken to avoid potential release of these pathogens, including enhanced facilities design, security measures and biosafety protocols. An example of an accepted prevention method is the use of chemical disinfectants to inactivate the viral pathogens. By using proven decontamination methods institutions are able to protect laboratory personnel, and the public, from potential infection. Although many commercially available products are marketed as disinfectants or decontaminants, there remains a lack of data addressing efficacy against specific pathogens used in laboratory research. Without having specific research validating the decontamination methods used to kill these dangerous pathogens, the containment facilities rely solely on legacy protocols. Results from this study with Risk Group 3 and 4 agents will determine efficacy of a chosen disinfectant, as well as ideal contact time, so that the community can be assured that valid methods are in place for inactivation of viral pathogens used in research.

AN ALTERNATIVE APPROACH FOR EVALUATING WATER QUALITY RESPONSES TO AGRICULTURAL DITCH MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
Creators: name: Spotts, Ian
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2010

description: Six agricultural ditches were selected on Maryland's Eastern Shore to document the cumulative effect of multiple Best Management Practices on shallow groundwater nutrient concentrations and the associated receiving surface waters. Groundwater samples were collected over 18 months from 8 shallow wells installed in the unconfined aquifer at four ditches. Additional surface water samples were collected during the damming phase in all secondary ditches as well as the upstream and downstream sites on the primary drainage channel. Separate Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) models were used to determine the management practices which had the greatest influence in both groundwater and surface water. The variables "Ditch", "Buffer" and "Groundwater Level" were the most influential in predicting nutrient concentrations in shallow groundwater associated with drainage ditches. The MLR model for surface water concluded that the variables "Growing Season", "Rainfall" and "Ditch Cleanout" were superior for predicting surface water nutrients during the damming phase.

DEVELOPMENT OF GUINEA PIG MODEL TO INVESTIGATE LUJO DISEASE AND PATHOGENESIS
Creators: name: Stuthman, Kelly
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2016

description: Lujo virus (LUJV) is a novel human pathogenic arenavirus. This virus was isolated from an outbreak that occurred in 2008. The case fatality rate was 80 percent, four out of five cases. The only survivor received Ribavirin. Recently, an animal model for LUJV was developed in strain 13/N guinea pigs (Bird et al. 2012). The exact differences between strain 13/N (University of Iowa) and strain 13 (United States Army Medical Research Institute for Infectious Diseases, USAMRIID) is unknown. It is hypothesized that the strain 13 from USAMRIID will be similarly susceptible to LUJV infection. The Hartley strain will also be tested in a comparison with strain 13, as a possible animal model for LUJV. Following the establishment of the LUJV animal model in either Hartley or strain 13 guinea pigs, we will then utilize the model to characterize and better understand LUJV pathology and disease progression. This model may be used for discovery and development of potential therapeutics and vaccines to combat future LUJV outbreaks.

description: We present a multigrid algorithm for self consistent solution of the Kohn-Sham equations in real space. The entire problem is discretized on a real space mesh with a high order finite difference representation. The resulting self consistent equations are solved on a heirarchy of grids of increasing resolution with a nonlinear Full Approximation Scheme, Full Multigrid algorithm. The self consistency is effected by updates of the Poisson equation and the exchange correlation potential at the end of each eigenfunction correction cycle. The algorithm leads to highly efficient solution of the equations, whereby the ground state electron distribution is obtained in only two or three self consistency iterations on the finest scale.

description: We consider the Hamiltonian dynamics and thermodynamics of spherically symmetric spacetimes within a one-parameter family of five-dimensional Lovelock theories. We adopt boundary conditions that make every classical solution part of a black hole exterior, with the spacelike hypersurfaces extending from the horizon bifurcation three-sphere to a timelike boundary with fixed intrinsic metric. The constraints are simplified by a Kuchař-type canonical transformation, and the theory is reduced to its true dynamical degrees of freedom. After quantization, the trace of the analytically continued Lorentzian time evolution operator is interpreted as the partition function of a thermodynamical canonical ensemble. Whenever the partition function is dominated by a Euclidean black hole solution, the entropy is given by the Lovelock analogue of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy; in particular, in the low temperature limit the system exhibits a dominant classical solution that has no counterpart in Einstein's theory. The asymptotically flat space limit of the partition function does not exist. The results indicate qualitative robustness of the thermodynamics of five-dimensional Einstein theory upon the addition of a nontrivial Lovelock term.

description: This research aims to determine whether TikTok is intentionally designed to be habit-forming. Prior research identifies TikTok as “addictive” but does not explain the reasons from a design standpoint. An analysis of TikTok’s design elements was performed, and 2 elements were selected for testing – variable content and endless scroll. Testing participants indicated their triggers for using TikTok and how they felt after using it; they completed a Self-Report Habit Index (SRHI) on scrolling TikTok; and they interacted with a prototype that was similar to TikTok without variable content or endless scrolling. Based on the analyses and test findings, this research demonstrates that TikTok is intentionally designed to be habit-forming.

description: We investigate the energy spectrum structure of a system of two (identical) interacting bosonic wells occupied by N bosons within the Schwinger realization of the angular momentum. This picture enables us to recognize the symmetry properties of the system Hamiltonian H and to use them for characterizing the energy eigenstates. Also, it allows for the derivation of the single-boson picture which is shown to be the background picture naturally involved by the secular equation for H. After deriving the corresponding eigenvalue equation, we recast it in a recursive N-dependent form which suggests a way to generate the level doublets (characterizing the H spectrum) via suitable inner parameters. Finally, we show how the presence of doublets in the spectrum allows to recover, in the classical limit, the symmetry breaking effect that characterizes the system classically.

Time Reference in Translation

description: Although the concept of time is shared among cultures, there are specific attitudes tοwards it (e.g. Khairullin, 1993). The differences encοutered between the translated Greek news reporting material examined and the English press source version, reveal two varying tendencies with respect to time specification in this genre: on the one hand, modifications introduced in the target version relate to an intensification intention of the translator, conveying a particular ideological forca and, on the other, a relative tendency for future orientation is observed in Greek, as opposed to a clear preference for past time reference in English.

description: The FoundationDB Record Layer is an open source library that provides a record-oriented data store with semantics similar to a relational database implemented on top of FoundationDB, an ordered, transactional key-value store. The Record Layer provides a lightweight, highly extensible way to store structured data. It offers schema management and a rich set of query and indexing facilities, some of which are not usually found in traditional relational databases, such as nested record types, indexes on commit versions, and indexes that span multiple record types. The Record Layer is stateless and built for massive multi-tenancy, encapsulating and isolating all of a tenant's state, including indexes, into a separate logical database. We demonstrate how the Record Layer is used by CloudKit, Apple's cloud backend service, to provide powerful abstractions to applications serving hundreds of millions of users. CloudKit uses the Record Layer to host billions of independent databases, many with a common schema. Features provided by the Record Layer enable CloudKit to provide richer APIs and stronger semantics with reduced maintenance overhead and improved scalability.

INDUCTION OF BAX BY CD40 STIMULATION IN AGGRESSIVE HISTOLOGY B-CELL LYMPHOMAS
Creators: name: Szocinski-Ziebold, Jamie Lynn
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2000

description: CD40 is a 55kDa molecule that is a member of the tumor necrosis factor/nerve growth factor receptor superfamily. CD40 is present on B cells, dendritic cells, hematopoietic progenitor cells, and various malignant cells. Stimulation of CD40 on untransformed B cells results in proliferation and differentiation. CD40 and B cell Ig receptor activation lead to induction of phenotypic and functional germinal center features in the lymph node. It is also required for successful isotype switching. The ligand for CD40 (CD40L, gp39, CD154) is expressed primarily on activated CD4+ T cells, although it is present on natural killer cells, platelets and eosinophils. It is a member of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily. CD40L regulates B cell function as well as promotes isotype switching in the presence of various cytokines. Soluble recombinant human CD40L (srhCD40L) has been demonstrated to be an active ligand to CD40. It has been demonstrated previously that some signals of normal cell activation will inhibit the growth of transformed cells by activation induced cell death (AICD). AICD can occur by cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and/or necrosis. An antibody to CD40 as well as srhCD40L inhibit aggressive histology human B-cell lymphomas in vitro and in vivo, supposedly by AICD. The mechanism by which CD40 causes AICD in these lymphomas is yet unknown. Stimulation of human B-cell lymphomas by either srhCD40L or anti-CD40 mAb's was able to significantly inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis in the lines tested. Upon further investigation, it was shown that CD40 stimulation in these cell lines derived from tumors causes an increase in pro-apoptotic mRNA in the bcl-2 family of genes with a subsequent increase in Bax protein in the cytosol. After 48 hours, the Bax protein had translocated to the mitochondria, an event which has the potential to advance cell death. In vitro culture of the lymphoma cells with bax antisense resulted in a significant protection from CD40-mediated death. This indicates that CD40 mediates death in these lymphomas through bax. In agreement with the in vitro proliferation assays, in vivo treatment of immunodeficient mice with srhCD40L or anti-CD40 mAb bearing CD40 positive human B-cell lymphomas results in significant increases in survival. These results demonstrate that CD40 ligation on aggressive human B-cell lymphomas induces AICD through box and thus may be of potential clinical use in the treatment of lymphomas.

description: We implement a steady, one-dimensional flow model for the X-ray jet of Centaurus A in which entrainment of stellar mass loss is the primary cause of dissipation. Using over 260 ks of new and archival Chandra/ACIS data, we have constrained the temperature, density and pressure distributions of gas in the central regions of the host galaxy of Centaurus A, and so the pressure throughout the length of its jet. The model is constrained by the observed profiles of pressure and jet width, and conserves matter and energy, enabling us to estimate jet velocities, and hence all the other flow properties. Invoking realistic stellar populations within the jet, we find that the increase in its momentum flux exceeds the net pressure force on the jet unless only about one half of the total stellar mass loss is entrained. For self-consistent models, the bulk speed only falls modestly, from ~0.67c to ~0.52c over the range of 0.25-5.94 kpc from the nucleus. The sonic Mach number varies between ~5.3 and 3.6 over this range.

DEVELOPMENT OF A REPORTER METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE TIME OF INDUCTION IN ESCHERICHIA COLI WHEN USING AUTOINDUCTION MEDIUM
Creators: name: Taylor, Troy
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2013

description: A wide variety of proteins can be expressed in E. coli using inducible expression systems, such as the pET expression system in which T7 RNA polymerase transcribes coding sequences under the control of the T71ac promoter. This induction system works nicely with the auto-induction method as the amount of protein expression can be controlled by the availability of lactose to the culture. Investigation of protein expression revealed that culture aeration levels, medium composition and LacI levels affect the induction timing of cultures grown in auto-induction medium. To alleviate these issues, a self reporting expression system was designed using the fluorescent protein reporter, mCherry. This reporter was placed on the same message downstream of target proteins. To eliminate manual fluorescence measurements an automated fluorescent sensing instrument (Firefly) was designed by Buglab LLC and used for determining when mCherry and target proteins were expressed, eliminating the induction timing concerns.

description: We consider two competing sets of nuclear magic numbers, namely the harmonic oscillator (HO) set (2, 8, 20, 40, 70, 112, 168, 240,...) and the set corresponding to the proxy-SU(3) scheme, possessing shells 0-2, 2-4, 6-12, 14-26, 28-48, 50-80, 82-124, 126-182, 184-256... The two sets provide 0+ bands with different deformation and band-head energies. We show that for proton (neutron) numbers starting from the regions where the quadrupole-quadrupole interaction, as derived by the HO, becomes weaker than the one obtained in the proxy-SU(3) scheme, to the regions of HO shell closure, the shape coexistence phenomenon may emerge. Our analysis suggests that the possibility for appearance of shape coexistence has to be investigated in the following regions of proton (neutron) numbers: 8, 18-20, 34-40, 60-70, 96-112, 146-168, 210-240,...
