The effect of acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on ventilatory plasticity and cerebral neurovascular coupling in humans
Creators: name: Vermeulen, Tyler Dennis
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Healthy humans exposed to acute intermittent hypoxia (IH) demonstrate comparable physiological responses to those with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and chronic exposure to IH. Responses include elevated sympathetic vasomotor outflow, arterial blood pressure, and changes in ventilatory and cerebrovascular sensitivity. Additionally, prolonged elevations in resting ventilation (V̇I) or ventilatory long-term facilitation (vLTF) manifest following IH, although to date only shown when hypercapnia is sustained throughout exposure and recovery. We aimed to determine (1) if acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia (IHH) elicits vLTF during isocapnic-normoxic recovery, (2) whether peripheral chemoreceptor drive contributes to vLTF, and (3) if IHH alters cerebral neurovascular coupling (NVC) in healthy men and women. Twenty individuals (age: 22±1; 9 females, tested 0-5 days early follicular phase) were exposed to 40-minutes of IHH comprised of 40-seconds hypercapnic hypoxia (nadir SPO₂ = 83.31.0%, peak PETCO₂ = 3.20.3 mmHg above baseline), and 20-seconds of normoxic recovery. Nine males returned for a time-matched room-air control. Beat-by-beat mean arterial blood pressure (MAP; finger-photoplethysmography) was recorded throughout the trial. The peak relative posterior cerebral blood velocity (PCAV; transcranial Doppler ultrasound) and conductance (PCACVC; quotient of PCAV and MAP) response to 5 repeated cycles of 30-seconds eyes-open with standardized visual stimulation determined cerebral NVC before and after IHH. Resting ventilation (V̇₁) was recorded for 50-minutes of recovery following IHH and 1-minute bouts of hyperoxia were administered to attenuate peripheral chemoreceptor drive at 5-minute intervals. Resting MAP was elevated from baseline at all time points throughout recovery (main effect; P<0.01). Following IHH, peak relative PCAV response to visual stimulus was not different, however PCACVC response was increased by 4.51.5% (P<0.01) and did not changed during time-matched control. Throughout 50-minutes of recovery V̇₁ was increased by 4.6±0.1 l/min compared to baseline (P<0.01). Hyperoxia depressed V̇₁ at baseline and V̇₁ depression was augmented throughout recovery (ΔV̇₁ = -0.8±0.2 vs. -1.7±0.3 l/min respectively, P<0.01). V̇₁ depression was not different during time-matched control. In summary, following IHH (1) vLTF is evident during isocapnic-normoxic recovery, (2) peripheral chemoreceptor inhibition led to greater depression of V̇₁ and (3) coupling of cerebral oxygen delivery to metabolic demands was augmented in healthy individuals.

description: Quantum dot arrays are a promising media for transferring quantum information between two distant points without resorting to mobile qubits. Here we study two most common disorders namely, hyperfine interaction and exchange coupling fluctuations, in quantum dot arrays and their effects on quantum communication through these chains. Our results show that the hyperfine interaction is more destructive than the exchange coupling fluctuations. The average optimal time for communication is not affected by any disorder in the system and our simulations show that anti-ferromagnetic chains are much more resistive than the ferromagnetic ones against both kind of disorders. Even when time modulation of a coupling and optimal control is employed to improve the transmission, the anti-ferromagnetic chain performs much better. We have assumed the quasi-static approximation for hyperfine interaction and time dependent fluctuations in the exchange couplings. Particularly, for studying exchange coupling fluctuations we have considered the static disorder, white noise and $1/f$ noise.

Brezin-Gross-Witten model as "pure gauge" limit of Selberg integrals

description: The AGT relation identifies the Nekrasov functions for various N=2 SUSY gauge theories with the 2d conformal blocks, which possess explicit Dotsenko-Fateev matrix model (beta-ensemble) representations the latter being polylinear combinations of Selberg integrals. The "pure gauge" limit of these matrix models is, however, a non-trivial multiscaling large-N limit, which requires a separate investigation. We show that in this pure gauge limit the Selberg integrals turn into averages in a Brezin-Gross-Witten (BGW) model. Thus, the Nekrasov function for pure SU(2) theory acquires a form very much reminiscent of the AMM decomposition formula for some model X into a pair of the BGW models. At the same time, X, which still has to be found, is the pure gauge limit of the elliptic Selberg integral. Presumably, it is again a BGW model, only in the Dijkgraaf-Vafa double cut phase.

description: In the present article, we consider Algebraic Geometry codes on some rational surfaces. The estimate of the minimum distance is translated into a point counting problem on plane curves. This problem is solved by applying the upper bound "à la Weil" of Aubry and Perret together with the bound of Homma and Kim for plane curves. The parameters of several codes from rational surfaces are computed. Among them, the codes defined by the evaluation of forms of degree 3 on an elliptic quadric are studied. As far as we know, such codes have never been treated before. Two other rational surfaces are studied and very good codes are found on them. In particular, a [57,12,34] code over $\mathbf{F}_7$ and a [91,18,53] code over $\mathbf{F}_9$ are discovered, these codes beat the best known codes up to now.

Using exact numerical techniques, we study the low temperature phase diagram of this system, and observe an intriguing phase consisting of a crystal of mesoscopic superfluid droplets. At low temperature, phase coherence throughout the whole system, and the ensuing bulk superfluidity, are established through tunnelling of identical particles between neighbouring droplets.

description: The inflationary paradigm has enjoyed phenomenological success, however, a compelling particle physics realization is still lacking. The key obstruction is that the requirement of a suitably flat scalar potential is sensitive to Ultra-Violet (UV) physics. Axions are among the best-motivated inflaton candidates, since the flatness of their potential is naturally protected by a shift symmetry. We re-consider the cosmological perturbations in axion inflation, consistently accounting for the coupling to gauge fields ϕF \tilde{F}, which is generically present in these models. This coupling leads to production of gauge quanta, which provide a new source of inflaton fluctuations, δϕ. For an axion decay constant < 10^{-2} M_p, this effect typically dominates over the standard fluctuations from the vacuum, and saturates the current observational bounds on nongaussianity of the CMB anisotropies. Since sub-Planckian values of the decay constant are typical for concrete realizations that admit a UV completion (such as N-flation and axion monodromy), we conclude that large nongaussianity is easily obtained in very minimal and natural realizations of inflation.

description: We present the results of a dedicated search for extremely metal-poor stars in the Fornax, Sculptor and Sextans dSphs. Five stars were selected from two earlier VLT/Giraffe and HET/HRS surveys and subsequently followed up at high spectroscopic resolution with VLT/UVES. All of them turned out to have [Fe/H] <= -3 and three stars are below [Fe/H] -3.5. This constitutes the first evidence that the classical dSphs Fornax and Sextans join Sculptor in containing extremely metal-poor stars and suggests that all of the classical dSphs contain extremely metal-poor stars. One giant in Sculptor at [Fe/H]=-3.96 +- 0.10 is the most metal-poor star ever observed in an external galaxy. We carried out a detailed analysis of the chemical abundances of the alpha, iron peak, and the heavy elements, and we performed a comparison with the Milky Way halo and the ultra faint dwarf stellar populations. Carbon, barium and strontium show distinct features characterized by the early stages of galaxy formation and can constrain the origin of their nucleosynthesis.

Application and evaluation of payment channel in hybrid decentralized Ethereum token exchange
Creators: name: Luo, Xuan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: As the killer decentralized application hosted by blockchain, cryptocurrencies have been accepted as digital cash by many investors and consumers nowadays. Token is a special kind of cryptocurrencies hosted on a blockchain. Due to the popularity of Ethereum, many token exchange platforms are for Ethereum based tokens nowadays. In general, we classify current token exchange supporting exchange of Ethereum based tokens into three categories, i.e., centralized token exchange (CEX), decentralized token exchange (DEX), and hybrid decentralized token exchange (HEX). CEX has been suffering from hacking due to the centralized management of users' tokens. In contrast, DEX maintains users' assets by smart contracts in a decentralized manner, but introduces additional overhead in terms of monetary and waiting time ( i.e., gas fee and transaction confirmation latency). HEX has been proposed to combine the benefits of CEX and DEX. However, existing HEX is criticized for two issues. First, trading transactions are time-consuming and expensive for frequent token traders. Second, excessive simultaneous transactions might cause the transaction congestion in Ethereum. In this thesis, we propose a payment channel based HEX, which extends existing solutions by adding a new payment channel layer to benefit frequent traders and alleviate the potential transaction congestion. We represent the system architecture of the proposed HEX and compare it with the conventional HEX to show how payment channel helps in decreasing the number of on-chain transactions for frequent traders. Besides, we propose the very first gas-price vs. transaction-confirmation-latency function to guide Ethereum transaction issuers to determine an optimal gas price that minimizes the overall cost. Based on the proposed gas-price vs. transaction-confirmation-latency function, we quantitatively evaluate the performance of payment channel in HEX by comparisons of the cost in terms of gas fee and transaction confirmation latency for a user in the conventional HEX and the proposed payment channel based HEX when the user's overall cost is minimized. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed mechanism in terms of reducing gas fee and transaction confirmation latency for frequent traders as well as the potential transaction congestion in Ethereum.

description: The hemisphere soft function is calculated to order alpha_s^2. This is the first multi-scale soft function calculated to two loops. The renormalization scale dependence of the result agrees exactly with the prediction from effective field theory. This fixes the unknown coefficients of the singular parts of the two-loop thrust and heavy-jet mass distributions. There are four such coefficients, for 2 event shapes and 2 color structures, which are shown to be in excellent agreement with previous numerical extraction. The asymptotic behavior of the soft function has double logs in the CF CA color structure, which agree with non-global log calculations, but also has sub-leading single logs for both the CF CA and CF TF nf color structures. The general form of the soft function is complicated, does not factorize in a simple way, and disagrees with the Hoang-Kluth ansatz. The exact hemisphere soft function will remove one source of uncertainty on the alpha_s fits from e+e- event shapes.

description: We discuss different proposals for the degree of polarization of quantum fields. The simplest approach, namely making a direct analogy with the classical description via the Stokes operators, is known to produce unsatisfactory results. Still, we argue that these operators and their properties should be basic for any measure of polarization. We compare alternative quantum degrees and put forth that they order various states differently. This is to be expected, since, despite being rooted in the Stokes operators, each of these measures only captures certain characteristics. Therefore, it is likely that several quantum degrees of polarization will coexist, each one having its specific domain of usefulness.

description: This work is studies the evolution of the Russian image in Western cinema and its influence on the production of stereotypes. The paper describes the key concepts, including "stereotype", "ideology" and how they interact in cinematography to influence public opinion. It also investigates attitudes towards Russians, considers the topic of Hollywood as the main propaganda tool in Western cinema and gives explanations for this phenomenon. We analyzed 11 films with Russian characters and looked at the Russian characterâs appearance, speech, behavioral motives and personality. This work considers how the Russian image changes in Western movies due to the course of history and political situation.

description: We construct a family of chiral anomaly-free supergravity theories in D=6 starting from D=7 supergravity with a gauged noncompact R-symmetry, employing a Horava-Witten bulk-plus-boundary construction. The gauged noncompact R-symmetry yields a positive (de Sitter sign) D=6 scalar field potential. Classical anomaly inflow which is needed to cancel boundary-field loop anomalies requires careful consideration of the gravitational, gauge, mixed and local supersymmetry anomalies. Coupling of boundary hypermultiplets requires care with the Sp(1) gauge connection required to obtain quaternionic Kahler target manifolds in D=6. This class of gauged R-symmetry models may be of use as starting points for further compactifications to D=4 that take advantage of the positive scalar potential, such as those proposed in the scenario of supersymmetry in large extra dimensions.

description: We present a catalog of Fe, Mg, Si, Ca, and Ti abundances for 2961 red giant stars that are likely members of eight dwarf satellite galaxies of the Milky Way (MW): Sculptor, Fornax, Leo I, Sextans, Leo II, Canes Venatici I, Ursa Minor, and Draco. For the purposes of validating our measurements, we also observed 445 red giants in MW globular clusters and 21 field red giants in the MW halo. The measurements are based on Keck/DEIMOS medium-resolution spectroscopy combined with spectral synthesis. We estimate uncertainties in [Fe/H] by quantifying the dispersion of [Fe/H] measurements in a sample of stars in monometallic globular clusters. We estimate uncertainties in Mg, Si, Ca, and Ti abundances by comparing our medium-resolution spectroscopic measurements to high-resolution spectroscopic abundances of the same stars. For this purpose, our DEIMOS sample included 132 red giants with published high-resolution spectroscopy in globular clusters, the MW halo field, and dwarf galaxies. The standard deviations of the differences in [Fe/H] and [alpha/Fe] (the average of [Mg/Fe], [Si/Fe], [Ca/Fe], and [Ti/Fe]) between the two samples is 0.15 and 0.16, respectively. This catalog represents the largest sample of multi-element abundances in dwarf galaxies to date. The next papers in this series draw conclusions on the chemical evolution, gas dynamics, and star formation histories from the catalog presented here. The wide range of dwarf galaxy luminosity reveals the dependence of dwarf galaxy chemical evolution on galaxy stellar mass.

Is the far border of the Local Void expanding?

description: According to models of evolution in the hierarchical structure formation scenarios, voids of galaxies are expected to expand. The Local Void (LV) is the closest large void, and it provides a unique opportunity to test observationally such an expansion. It has been found that the Local Group, which is on the border of the LV, is running away from the void center at ~260 km/s. In this study we investigate the motion of the galaxies at the far-side border of the LV to examine the presence of a possible expansion. We selected late-type, edge-on spiral galaxies with radial velocities between 3000 km/s and 5000 km/s, and carried out HI 21 cm line and H-band imaging observations. The near-infrared Tully-Fisher relation was calibrated with a large sample of galaxies and carefully corrected for Malmquist bias. It was used to compute the distances and the peculiar velocities of the LV sample galaxies. Among the 36 sample LV galaxies with good quality HI line width measurements, only 15 galaxies were selected for measuring their distances and peculiar velocities, in order to avoid the effect of Malmquist bias. The average peculiar velocity of these 15 galaxies is found to be -419+208-251 km/s, which is not significantly different from zero. Due to the intrinsically large scatter of Tully-Fisher relation, we cannot conclude whether there is a systematic motion against the center of the LV for the galaxies at the far-side boundary of the void. However, our result is consistent with the hypothesis that those galaxies at the far-side boundary have an average velocity of ~260 km/s equivalent to what is found at the position of the Local Group.

Developing for ALMA's future at NOVA
Creators: name: Hesper, Ronald
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: An overview is given of the current, and currently foreseen, development activities at the NOVA Sub-mm Instrumentation Group (University of Groningen), mostly in the light of the ALMA 2030 Development Roadmap. Many of the main activities are centered about an ESO-cofunded study on the possibilities of upgrading the current ALMA DSB Band 9 (600-720GHz) receivers. Sideband-separating (2SB) operation is particularly fruitful for high-frequency atmosphere-dominated bands like Band 9. A 2SB mixer, with an IF bandwidth of 4x 4-12GHz and an image rejection ratio (IRR) in excess of 20dB at most frequencies (better than 15dB everywhere), has been deployed successfully in the SEPIA660 instrument on APEX. An important goal of the study is the further extension of the IF band to at least 4-20GHz, for a total IF bandwidth of 64GHz, four times as wide as the current ALMA 2SB bands. Other subjects under study are the extension of the RF band beyond 600-720GHz, and a drastic improvement of the polarimetric performance (dominated by the beam squint and the cross-polar leakage of the optics). Outside of this study, developments include a scaled version of the Band 9 2SB mixer for the 780-950GHz band of FLASH (MPIfR Bonn, APEX) with demonstrated IRR performance very similar to the Band 9 mixer; a 210-275GHz mixer (Band 6) primarily for LLAMA (Argentina), enabling it to participate in the EHT array, and possibly for space applications (Millimetron) as well; digitally corrected image rejection; and finally participation in projects targeting further enhancement of the fundamental performance of SIS junctions, crucial for any sub-mm receivers envisioned for the near to mid future.

description: The "entanglement cost" of a bipartite measurement is the amount of shared entanglement two participants need to use up in order to carry out the given measurement by means of local operations and classical communication. Here we numerically investigate the entanglement cost of generic orthogonal measurements on two qubits. Our results strongly suggest that for almost all measurements of this kind, the entanglement cost is strictly greater than the average entanglement of the eigenstates associated with the measurements, implying that the nonseparability of a two-qubit orthogonal measurement is generically distinct from the nonseparability of its eigenstates.

We show that the system at sufficiently low temperatures exhibits population imbalance, as well as fermionic pairing. We describe the crossover in this system, connecting the weakly interacting BCS regime of the partially population-imbalanced fermion pairing state and the BEC limit with three weakly interacting species of molecules, including pairing fluctuations within a t-matrix calculation of the particle self-energies.

description: A string of trapped ions at zero temperature exhibits a structural phase transition to a zigzag structure, tuned by reducing the transverse trap potential or the interparticle distance. The transition is driven by transverse, short wavelength vibrational modes. We argue that this is a quantum phase transition, which can be experimentally realized and probed. Indeed, by means of a mapping to the Ising model in a transverse field, we estimate the quantum critical point in terms of the system parameters, and find a finite, measurable deviation from the critical point predicted by the classical theory. A measurement procedure is suggested which can probe the effects of quantum fluctuations at criticality. These results can be extended to describe the transverse instability of ultracold polar molecules in a one dimensional optical lattice.

Social media in the Canadian government : an exploratory study of emerging practice
Creators: name: Shaffer, Elizabeth M.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Records held in national and institutional archives can serve as instruments of accountability and transparency for government actions (or inaction) and aid in constructing social memory. As digital technologies advance, records that were traditionally analogue are increasingly generated within networked digital platforms. In efforts contribute to archival and records theory on social media and accountability, this dissertation investigates emergent practices in the Government of Canada’s (GC) early use of social media, (2013–2014), when agencies and public servants were in the nascent stages of adoption. This study undertakes a qualitative examination of two main areas of the GC’s social media use: social media and recordkeeping practices and their implications for records generation and retention, and policy instruments and frameworks regarding the role of information management and recordkeeping in its social media use and outputs. Empirical data gathered included 28 interview participants, 34 legislative and policy instruments, online and offline observations, and 35 documentary sources, which were analyzed using a practice lens—introducing the utility of a practice lens for archival research. The main objectives of the study were to gain an understanding of the relationships between social media practices, policy, and information management and recordkeeping practices in the GC during an early phase of social media adoption and to contribute to the archival and records theory discourse surrounding shifting social media and recordkeeping practices and the implications for records as instruments of accountability. Findings suggest that emerging social media practices at that time put a strain on existing government frameworks, particularly with regard to retaining, collecting, and preserving its own records and records under its collections mandate. Despite implementing social media, findings also indicate that GC social media adoption and use operated in a bureaucratic environment that struggled to effectively adopt the ethos of these platforms (e.g. horizontal collaborations, ease of information access, etc.). The research surfaced constraints in policy development: policies intended to support increased collaboration were challenged by a hierarchical decision-making model. Moving forward, this research suggests an agile approach to policy development and an exploration of global treaty approaches in exploration of social media platform governance models.
