description: Push/enter and eval/apply are two calling conventions used in implementations of functional languages. In this paper, we explore the following observation: when considering functions with multiple arguments, the stack under the push/enter and eval/apply conventions behaves similarly to two particular implementations of the list datatype: the regular cons-list and a form of lists with lazy concatenation respectively. Along the lines of Danvy et al.'s functional correspondence between definitional interpreters and abstract machines, we use this observation to transform an abstract machine that implements push/enter into an abstract machine that implements eval/apply. We show that our method is flexible enough to transform the push/enter Spineless Tagless G-machine (which is the semantic core of the GHC Haskell compiler) into its eval/apply variant.

description: Nel secolo scorso il castagno ha fortemente caratterizzato la vita delle popolazioni montane italiane, ma c’è stato un periodo in cui la sua esistenza nel nostro territorio era sconosciuta. L’areale di origine del castagno, a detta di alcuni studiosi, sarebbe l’Asia Minore ed è grazie ai greci se questa specie forestale è oggi presente in Italia. Con l’avvento della civiltà romana, la coltivazione del castagno si è poi diffusa ulteriormente, occupando buona parte dell’Europa. È così che oggi troviamo tracce di boschi di castagno anche in Gran Bretagna, nonostante la specie preferisca i climi più caldi dell’Europa meridionale e della zona mediterranea e caucasica...

description: In the first two papers in this series, we developed new shifted potential (SP), gradient shifted force (GSF), and Taylor shifted force (TSF) real-space methods for multipole interactions in condensed phase simulations. Here, we discuss the dielectric properties of fluids that emerge from simulations using these methods. Most electrostatic methods (including the Ewald sum) require correction to the conducting boundary fluctuation formula for the static dielectric constants, and we discuss the derivation of these corrections for the new real space methods. For quadrupolar fluids, the analogous material property is the quadrupolar susceptibility. As in the dipolar case, the fluctuation formula for the quadrupolar susceptibility has corrections that depend on the electrostatic method being utilized. One of the most important effects measured by both the static dielectric and quadrupolar susceptibility is the ability to screen charges embedded in the fluid. We use potentials of mean force between solvated ions to discuss how geometric factors can lead to distance-dependent screening in both quadrupolar and dipolar fluids.

description: Our work relates to the use of metamaterials engineered to realize a meta-surface approaching the exotic properties of an ideal object not observed in nature, a "magnetic mirror". Previous realizations were based on resonant structures which implied narrow bandwidths and large losses. The working principle of our device is ideally frequency-independent, it does not involve resonances and it does not rely on a specific technology. The performance of our prototype, working at millimetre wavelengths, has never been achieved before and it is superior to any other device reported in the literature, both in the microwave and optical regions. The device inherently has large bandwidth (144%), low losses (<1 %) and is almost independent of incidence-angle and polarization-state and thus approaches the behaviour of an ideal magnetic mirror. Applications of magnetic mirrors range from low-profile antennas, absorbers to optoelectronic devices. Our device can be realised using different technologies to operate in other spectral regions.
Stable thrombus formation on irradiated microvascular endothelial cells using vascular targeting agents under pulsatile flow: pro-thrombotic treatment for brain arteriovenous malformations

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Background: Brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are a leading cause of intracranial haemorrhage in children and young adults. Limitations of current treatment approaches leave one third of AVM patients at risk. The overall goal of this work is to develop a radiation-guided vascular targeting treatment for AVMs. Externalised phosphatidylserine and alpha-crystallin B (CRYAB) have been identified as potential biomarkers on the endothelium of irradiated AVM blood vessels. It was hypothesised that these molecules could be selectively targeted after AVM radiosurgery with ligand-directed pro-thrombotic vascular targeting agents (VTAs) to achieve localised thrombosis and rapid occlusion of pathological AVM vessels. Pre-testing of novel VTAs may be more economically and ethically performed in vitro. Aim 1: To establish an in vitro parallel-plate flow chamber system using whole blood for VTA testing. Aim 2: To develop and test the efficacy of pro-thrombotic VTAs targeting phosphatidylserine and CRYAB on irradiated endothelial cells under flow. Methods: Conjugates were prepared by Lys-Lys cross-linking of thrombin with annexin V targeting phosphatidylserine, or with an anti-CRYAB antibody. Cerebral microvascular endothelial cells were irradiated (5 Gy, 15 Gy, and 25 Gy) and after 1 or 3 days assembled in a parallel-plate flow chamber containing whole human blood and conjugate (1.25 μg/mL or 2.5 μg/mL). Confocal microscopy was used to assess thrombus formation after flow via binding and aggregation of fluorescently-labelled platelets or fibrinogen. Results and conclusions: Both annexin V-thrombin and anti-CRYAB-thrombin VTAs induced rapid thrombosis on irradiated endothelial cells under flow. Thrombosis was greatest at the highest combined doses of radiation and conjugate. Annexin V-thrombin induced moderate thrombus stimulation even at the lowest radiation dose. These molecules and their developed VTAs appear suitable for further testing in animal models. The parallel-plate flow chamber proved to be a simple and cost-effective method to pre-test pro-thrombotic vascular targeting agents prior to preclinical studies.

description: Assuming the existence of a field theory in D dimensions dual to (D+1)-dimensional flat space, governed by the asymptotic symmetries of flat space, we make some preliminary remarks about the properties of this field theory. We review briefly some successes of the 3d bulk - 2d boundary case and then focus on the 4d bulk - 3d boundary example, where the symmetry in question is the infinite dimensional BMS4 algebra. We look at the constraints imposed by this symmetry on a 3d field theory by constructing highest weight representations of this algebra. We construct two and three point functions of BMS primary fields and surprisingly find that symmetries constrain these correlators to be identical to those of a 2d relativistic conformal field theory. We then go one dimension higher and construct prototypical examples of 4d field theories which are putative duals of 5d Minkowski spacetimes. These field theories are ultra-relativistic limits of electrodynamics and Yang-Mills theories which exhibit invariance under the conformal Carroll group in D=4. We explore the different sectors within these Carrollian gauge theories and investigate the symmetries of the equations of motion to find that an infinite ultra-relativistic conformal structure arises in each case.

description: Topological superconductivity is the quantum condensate of paired electrons with an odd parity of the pairing function. One of the candidates is the triplet pairing superconductor derived from topological insulator Bi2Se3 by chemical doping. Theoretically it was predicted that a two-fold superconducting order parameter may exist in this kind of bulk topological superconductor. Earlier experiments by nuclear magnetic resonance and angle-resolved magnetocaloric measurements seem to support this picture. By using a Corbino-shape like electrode configuration, we measure the c-axis resistivity without the influence of the vortex motion and find clear evidence of two-fold superconductivity in the recently discovered topological superconductor SrxBi2Se3. The Laue diffraction measurements on these samples show that the maximum gap direction is either parallel or perpendicular to the main crystallographic axis.

description: This paper shows connections between command injection attacks, continuations, and the Lambek calculus: certain command injections, such as the tautology attack on SQL, are shown to be a form of control effect that can be typed using the Lambek calculus, generalizing the double-negation typing of continuations. Lambek's syntactic calculus is a logic with two implicational connectives taking their arguments from the left and right, respectively. These connectives describe how strings interact with their left and right contexts when building up syntactic structures. The calculus is a form of propositional logic without structural rules, and so a forerunner of substructural logics like Linear Logic and Separation Logic.

description: We define and calculate helicity partial-wave amplitudes for processes linking the Electroweak Symmetry Breaking Sector (EWSBS) to $γγ$, employing (to NLO) the Higgs-EFT (HEFT) extension of the Standard Model and the Equivalence Theorem, while neglecting all particle masses. The resulting amplitudes can be useful in the energy regime ($500\,{\rm GeV}-3\,{\rm TeV}$). We also deal with their unitarization so that resonances of the EWSBS can simultaneously be described in the $γγ$ initial or final states. Our resulting amplitudes satisfy unitarity, perturbatively in $α$, but for all $s$ values. In this way we improve on the HEFT that fails as interactions become stronger with growing $s$ and provide a natural framework for the decay of dynamically generated resonances into $WW$, $ZZ$ and $γγ$ pairs.

A singular Lambert-W Schrödinger potential exactly solvable in terms of the confluent hypergeometric functions
Creators: name: Ishkhanyan, A. M.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We introduce two potentials explicitly given by the Lambert-W function for which the exact solution of the one-dimensional stationary Schrödinger equation is written through the first derivative of a double-confluent Heun function. One of these potentials is a singular potential that behaves as the inverse square root in the vicinity of the origin and vanishes exponentially at the infinity. The exact solution of the Schrödinger equation for this potential is given through fundamental solutions each of which presents an irreducible linear combination of two confluent hypergeometric functions. Since the potential is effectively a short-range one it supports only a finite number of bound states.
Cinematic subjectivity in first person cinema

Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The main objective of this screen-based research thesis is to investigate cinematic subjectivity in first person cinema, paying special attention to the role of the artist as storyteller, director and filmmaker. My interest is to explore cinematic devices and conventions that underpin first person storytelling. I interrogate what is commonly understood as the device of the subjective point of view (POV) from the first person perspective. I discuss Deleuze's various categories of cinematic subjectivity particularly his referencing of Pier Paulo Pasolini'sfree indirect discourse and Mitry's semi-subjective shot. I focus on the importance of Pasolini' s im-segni theorem and demonstrate the strength and value of his contribution to film theory over and above apparatus theory and film semiotics. This thesis also investigates the contributions to the concept of cinematic subjectivity of key theoreticians and filmmakers such as Metz, Wilson, Pasolini and Varda. I differentiate the ways in which subjective POV is utilised and its implication for the power of narration, including how images are used to extend cinematic language and how a spectator is positioned within the narrative framework. I engage with Varda's approach to first person storytelling in my analysis. T validate the idea that suhjective and objective POV are fluid, sometimes interchangeable categories, attributing this interchangeability to Varda' s imaginative approach to narrative. My practical screen-based outcomes, in the form of two short films about my personal experience of forced adoption in Australia in the late 1960s, are made with different approaches to first person cinematic subjectivity. Moment of Truth (MOT), produced by the ABC, is influenced (with limitations) by Varda's style, whereas Without Consent is more experimental and incorporates Pasolini's im-segni theorem. I compare the production methods of both films and argue that artists and practitioners, through demonstrating their thinking in practice, supersede and extend the notion of first person cinematic subjectivity.

In particular, for every Gentzen-style reduction between LK-proofs we study the induced grammars and classify the cases in which language equality and inclusion hold.

Transnational Marriages and Integration: Narratives of Identity Negotiations of Generation Millennium Pakistani Brides in Britain and Canada
Creators: name: RIAZ, RIDA
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2023
Subjects: Sociology of migration, ethnicity and multiculturalism

description: Marrying back home is a common practice among second or third generation Pakistani migrants in Britain and Canada, who bring brides from their parent’s country of origin. These brides experience challenges navigating between marital families’ expectations and integration in the host society. This study article foregrounds the importance of family while recognizing religion, gender, and social capital in shaping the ways transnational brides navigate their lives in the host society. The results reveal that family plays a crucial role in shaping their day-to-day negotiations and participation in the host society. While some families facilitated their participation in economic and social life, others created barriers for them. The findings also show that multicultural contexts also have an impact on their gender and religious practices.

description: A fake weighted projective space X is a Q-factorial toric variety with Picard number one. As with weighted projective space, X comes equipped with a set of weights (λ_0,...,λ_n). We see how the singularities of P(λ_0,...,λ_n) influence the singularities of X, and how the weights bound the number of possible fake weighted projective spaces for a fixed dimension. Finally, we present an upper bound on the ratios λ_j/\sumλ_i if we wish X to have only terminal (or canonical) singularities.

Here we show that a quantum cavity optomechanical system, as an emerging platform, can behave with a certain value of quantum coherence at a macroscopic scale. We also find that the difference between the total optomechanical coherence and the sum of the optical and the mechanical coherence just equals their mutual information. Motivated by the detection of the optomechanical entanglement, an experimentally feasible scheme to probe the optomechanical coherence is proposed.

Denotational Semantics of the Simplified Lambda-Mu Calculus and a New Deduction System of Classical Type Theory

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Logic in Computer Science (cs.LO)

subject: F.4.1

description: Classical (or Boolean) type theory is the type theory that allows the type inference $σ\to \bot) \to \bot => σ$ (the type counterpart of double-negation elimination), where $σ$ is any type and $\bot$ is absurdity type. This paper first presents a denotational semantics for a simplified version of Parigot's lambda-mu calculus, a premier example of classical type theory. In this semantics the domain of each type is divided into infinitely many ranks and contains not only the usual members of the type at rank 0 but also their negative, conjunctive, and disjunctive shadows in the higher ranks, which form an infinitely nested Boolean structure. Absurdity type $\bot$ is identified as the type of truth values. The paper then presents a new deduction system of classical type theory, a sequent calculus called the classical type system (CTS), which involves the standard logical operators such as negation, conjunction, and disjunction and thus reflects the discussed semantic structure in a more straightforward fashion.

Abstract Desidustat (Oxemia™), a hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor, is a promising new oral alternative to injectable erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) for the treatment of anaemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Desidustat is approved in India for adults with CKD who are either not on dialysis or on dialysis. It is administered orally three times a week and dosage should be individualised based on the haemoglobin response of the patient. In clinical trials in patients with non-dialysis-dependent and dialysis-dependent CKD, desidustat was non-inferior to darbepoetin alfa and epoetin alfa, respectively, in increasing haemoglobin levels. Desidustat was generally well tolerated in clinical trials of up to 24 weeks and had a broadly similar tolerability and safety profile to darbepoetin alfa and epoetin alfa. The most common adverse events with desidustat were peripheral oedema in patients with non-dialysis-dependent CKD, and pyrexia, increased blood potassium, nausea and chills in patients with dialysis-dependent CKD. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2023

description: An optical frequency comb generated with an electro-optic phase modulator and a chirped radiofrequency waveform is used to perform saturation and pump-probe spectroscopy on the $D_1$ and $D_2$ transitions of atomic potassium. With a comb tooth spacing of 200 kHz and an optical bandwidth of 2 GHz the hyperfine transitions can be simultaneously observed. Interferograms are recorded in as little as 5 $μ$s (a timescale corresponding to the inverse of the comb tooth spacing). Importantly, the sub-Doppler features can be measured as long as the laser carrier frequency lies within the Doppler profile, thus removing the need for slow scanning or a priori knowledge of the frequencies of the sub-Doppler features. Sub-Doppler optical frequency comb spectroscopy has the potential to dramatically reduce acquisition times and allow for rapid and accurate assignment of complex molecular and atomic spectra which are presently intractable.

English and Vietnamese collocations: a contrastive analysis
Creators: name: Trinh, Frank Nhat
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This thesis aims at searching for a way to improve the translator's skills in English and Vietnamese by enhancing their knowledge of word-combinations. An attempt has been made in this study to illustrate that lack of a solid knowledge of collocations in translation results in the loss of naturalness of the target language. Numerous collocational mismatches made by professional translators have been detected in learned journals as well as in community information publications. This thesis also makes observations on different aspects of collocational patterning of English and Vietnamese based on random samples of the data collected. Research results show instances of a wide range of non-direct translation equivalence inherent in word-combinations of the languages under investigation. -- This thesis starts off with a journey through personal experience to the realization that the knowledge of collocation is a necessary pre-requisite leading to competence in translation. Chapter One provides greater insight into the notion of collocation by reviewing the literature on related studies, which results in the choice of a broader definition of collocation for this research. Chapter Two highlights the cause-to-effect relationship between collocation and translation in the Australian translation scene. Chapters Three and Four deal with the structural, semantic, and thematic aspects of collocational patterning of English and Vietnamese, based on a survey of fixed and relatively fixed expressions. Chapter Five provides a contrastive perspective of collocation patterning between the two languages under investigation with particular reference to noncomparable collocational patterns. Chapter Six outlines some of the implications for the future training of professional translators with special emphasis on the teaching of vocabulary in 'chunks' of words. Various types of vocabulary and collocation exercises and tests were mentioned, including a special collocational competence test which was designed and conducted in Hanoi for Vietnamese students and for native and near-native English speakers in Sydney.

Viscous time lags between starburst and AGN activity

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: There is strong observational evidence indicating a time lag of order of some 100 Myr between the onset of starburst and AGN activity in galaxies. Dynamical time lags have been invoked to explain this. We extend this approach by introducing a viscous time lag the gas additionally needs to flow through the AGN's accretion disc before it reaches the central black hole. Our calculations reproduce the observed time lags and are in accordance with the observed correlation between black hole mass and stellar velocity dispersion.

Reflexive polytopes of higher index and the number 12

description: We introduce reflexive polytopes of index l as a natural generalisation of the notion of a reflexive polytope of index 1. These l-reflexive polytopes also appear as dual pairs. In dimension two we show that they arise from reflexive polygons via a change of the underlying lattice. This allows us to efficiently classify all isomorphism classes of l-reflexive polygons up to index 200. As another application, we show that any reflexive polygon of arbitrary index satisfies the famous "number 12" property. This is a new, infinite class of lattice polygons possessing this property, and extends the previously known sixteen instances. The number 12 property also holds more generally for l-reflexive non-convex or self-intersecting polygonal loops. We conclude by discussing higher-dimensional examples and open questions.

Actor Training in the Flow State
Creators: name: HEATH, THOMAS JAMES JACK
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2023
Subjects: Drama, theatre and performance studies

description: This PhD investigated how Mihaly Csíkszentmihályi's concept flow can help actor trainers facilitate the optimal conditions in contemporary conservatoire actor training. Flow is defined as a state of complete immersion within an activity in which the participant’s sense of time distorts, action and awareness merge, and self-consciousness disappears. The findings of this practice-based research indicate student actors are more likely to experience flow in process-focused practices that provoke participants’ imagination, rather than result-focused practices that prescribe a desired performance outcome. The result is a pedagogical approach to training that uses game-like structures to encourage impulsive play in student actors.
Mutations of fake weighted projective planes

description: In previous work by Coates, Galkin, and the authors, the notion of mutation between lattice polytopes was introduced. Such a mutation gives rise to a deformation between the corresponding toric varieties. In this paper we study one-step mutations that correspond to deformations between weighted projective planes, giving a complete characterisation of such mutations in terms of T-singularities. We show also that the weights involved satisfy Diophantine equations, generalising results of Hacking-Prokhorov.

Biopsychosocial risk factors in office workers with non-specific neck pain: a cross-sectional analysis
Creators: name: Frutiger, Martin
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Background: Non-specific neck pain (NSNP) is a highly prevalent and burdensome musculoskeletal disorder. Several biopsychosocial risk factors for NSNP exist in the literature. However, the use of standardised, research-validated self-reporting instruments for measuring the multidimensional nature of risk factors in NSNP is lacking in the literature.Objectives:Describe a population of office workers with NSNP with respect to biopsychosocial risk factors; and, find the prevalence of NSNP in an office worker population.Methods:119 office workers were studied. Data were collected using an online questionnaire comprising six standardised self-reporting instruments to measure biopsychosocial risk factors.Results: The prevalence of self-reported NSNP in the study population was 73.10%. NSNP was associated with manner of self-reported NSNP, gender, employment, education, workplace, marital status and sickness absence by some of the self-reporting instruments. Preliminary evidence suggests psychosocial parameters have significant effects on self-reported NSNP. The instruments were also highly correlated to one another.Conclusions:Several biospychosocial risk factors for NSNP in office workers exist. Future studies should examine the correlations between each of the six instrument items to one another and by self-reported NSNP to ascertain the effect of specific risk factors in NSNP and disability.

description: This study is an ongoing research aiming to develop four prospective secondary mathematics teachers’ skills in designing and teaching technology-based lesson plans within the scope of 14-week Teaching Practice course. The Dynamic Geometry Task Analysis and Instrumental Orchestration frameworks have been chosen as the conceptual basis of the study. In this study, qualitative research paradigm has been adopted and action research methodology aiming to plan a cyclical process of designing technology-based lesson plans through modifying, implementing and reflecting has been used. Data mainly consisted of individual/group interviews, lesson observations/field notes and multiple versions of lesson plans. Data analysis process is in progress, however, preliminary results focusing on one task of one participant indicated that the participant developed, evaluated and implemented her technology-based task in the light of adopted frameworks.
