Conditions for realizing one-point interactions from a multi-layer structure model

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A heterostructure composed of $N$ parallel homogeneous layers is studied in the limit as their widths $l_1, \ldots , l_N$ shrink to zero. The problem is investigated in one dimension and the piecewise constant potential in the Schrödinger equation is given by the strengths $V_1, \ldots , V_N$ as functions of $l_1, \ldots , l_N$, respectively. The key point is the derivation of the conditions on the functions $V_1(l_1), \ldots , V_N(l_N)$ for realizing a family of one-point interactions as $l_1, \ldots , l_N$ tend to zero along available paths in the $N$-dimensional space. The existence of equations for a squeezed structure, the solution of which determines the system parameter values, under which the non-zero tunneling of quantum particles through a multi-layer structure occurs, is shown to exist and depend on the paths. This tunneling appears as a result of an appropriate cancellation of divergences.

description: Multi-epoch Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) study of the sub-pc scale jet of 3C 84 is presented. We carried out 14-epoch VLBI observations during 2006-2009 with the Japanese VLBI Network (JVN) and the VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry (VERA), immediately following the radio outburst that began in 2005. We confirmed that the outburst was associated with the central ~1 pc core, accompanying the emergence of a new component. This is striking evidence of the recurrence of jet activity. The new component became brighter during 2008, in contrast to the constant gamma-ray emission that was observed with the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope during the same time. We found that the projected speed of the new component is 0.23c from 2007/297 (2007 October 24) to 2009/114 (2009 April 24). The direction of movement of this component differs from that of the pre-existing component by ~40 degree. This is the first measurement of kinematics of a sub-pc jet in a gamma-ray active phase. Possible detection of jet deceleration and the jet kinematics in connection with the gamma-ray emission is discussed.

The response of miracidia and cercariae of Bunodera mediovitellata to light and to gravity
Creators: name: Kennedy, Murray James
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis investigates the effect of light, and to a lesser extent of gravity, on the distribution of the two free-living larval stages (miracidia and cercariae) of the digenetic trematode Bunodera mediovitellata. Test tubes, with various portions blackened, were illuminated by a horizontal white light, to determine the photoresponse and georesponse of miracidia and cercariae. Four-arm test chambers were used to determine the lowest light intensity at which miracidia and cercariae reacted. This intensity proved to be the same for both miracidia and cercariae even though miracidia are photonegative and cercariae are photopositive. Two-arm test chambers, illuminated with monochromatic light, were used to determine which wavelength(s) the larval stages were responding to. Cercariae showed a single response peak at 550Anm. while miracidia showed two peak's; one at 550 run. and the other at 650 nm. The second peak may be due to a screening effect by the pigment which surrounds the photoreceptor. The experimental results support the hypothesis that behavioural responses of free-living miracidia and cercariae to environmental stimuli guide? them to the general area of their next host and thereby increase! the chance of host-parasite contact. The photonegative and geopositive behaviour of miracidia of B.mediovitellata would keep them on or near the bottom of the pond and in the general habitat of the next host, Pisidium casertanum. Cercariae are photopositive and either geopositive or are very weak swimmers. Their behaviour would keep them on the bottom of the pond in the prefered habitat of the next probable host, an insect nymph or a crustacean. A model depicting the possible theoretical combinations of photoresponse with georesponse was constructed. A survey of the literature was undertaken to find larval stages with known photo-response and georesponse. The responses of these larvae were tabulated and compared to the model. In each case, the responses of the larvae supported the hypothesis that a complementary response to light and gravity should occur more frequently in nature than antagonistic reponses or a response to either light or gravity alone.
OptABC: an Optimal Hyperparameter Tuning Approach for Machine Learning Algorithms

description: Hyperparameter tuning in machine learning algorithms is a computationally challenging task due to the large-scale nature of the problem. In order to develop an efficient strategy for hyper-parameter tuning, one promising solution is to use swarm intelligence algorithms. Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) optimization lends itself as a promising and efficient optimization algorithm for this purpose. However, in some cases, ABC can suffer from a slow convergence rate or execution time due to the poor initial population of solutions and expensive objective functions. To address these concerns, a novel algorithm, OptABC, is proposed to help ABC algorithm in faster convergence toward a near-optimum solution. OptABC integrates artificial bee colony algorithm, K-Means clustering, greedy algorithm, and opposition-based learning strategy for tuning the hyper-parameters of different machine learning models. OptABC employs these techniques in an attempt to diversify the initial population, and hence enhance the convergence ability without significantly decreasing the accuracy. In order to validate the performance of the proposed method, we compare the results with previous state-of-the-art approaches. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the OptABC compared to existing approaches in the literature.

Accretion of a clumped wind from a red supergiant donor onto a magnetar is suggested by the analysis of the XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations of the X-ray binary 3A 1954+319

description: 3A 1954+319 has been classified for a long time as a symbiotic X-ray binary, hosting a slowly rotating neutron star and an aged M red giant. Recently, this classification has been revised thanks to the discovery that the donor star is an M supergiant. This makes 3A 1954+319 a rare type of high mass X-ray binary consisting of a neutron star and a red supergiant donor. In this paper, we analyse two archival and still unpublished XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations of the source. We perform a detailed hardness ratio-resolved spectral analysis to search for spectral variability that could help investigating the structures of the inhomogeneous M supergiant wind from which the neutron star is accreting. We discuss our results in the context of wind-fed supergiant X-ray binaries and show that the newest findings on 3A 1954+319 reinforce the hypothesis that the neutron star in this system is endowed with a magnetar-like magnetic field strength ($\gtrsim10^{14}$ G).

Costruzione di mondi. Note sul concetto weberiano di Weltbild

Publisher: name: Annali del Dipartimento di Filosofia
Year: 2013
Subjects: Max Weber; Weltbild; ideology; Kultur, Glaube

description: This paper aims to focus on the Weberian concept of Weltbild (World-image), considered as one of the most important analytic instruments of his sociology. I will argue that Weltbilder have a mainly cognitive function, with a direct practical effect: they are framing devices, that allow men to orient themselves in the world. In this sense, the Weberian concept of Weltbild differs from the notion of Ideology. I will base my argument on two different elements: the peculiar theoretical status of World-images and their relationship with material factors. Unlike ideologies, in fact, Weltbilder do not deal with the distinction true-false: they are conceivable as cultural constructions, the relationship with whom can only take the form of belief (Glaube). Secondly, they are not simply functional products of material interests: in Weberian analysis, ideal and material factors have a mutual influence, that is not deducible by a rule.

description: We study nucleon-to-delta electromagnetic transition form factors and relations between them within the framework of holographic dual model of QCD proposed by Sakai and Sugimoto. In this setup, baryons appear as topological solitons of the five dimensional holographic gauge theory that describes a tower of mesons and their interactions. We find a relativistic extension of the nucleon-delta-vector meson interaction vertices and use these to calculate transition form factors from holographic QCD. We observe that at low momentum transfer, magnetic dipole, electric and Coulomb quadrupole form factors and their ratios follow the patterns expected in the large N_c limit. Our results at this approximation are in reasonable agreement with experiment.

Selecting research and development projects
Creators: name: Hartley, Karen Marie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Previously proposed algorithms for selecting research and development projects are reviewed. A new method for analysis of project selection decisions is developed. This method includes such features as multiple criteria, funding ranges, and multiple solutions. Methods of handling multiple criteria are discussed. An interactive project selection algorithm is developed and implemented. Three characteristics of the algorithm improve its usefulness and acceptability to decision makers; 1) the algorithm is based on a relatively realistic model of the decision situations, 2) it requires direct participation on the part of the decision maker and allows some user control of evaluation criteria, and 3) it's data requirements are modest.

description: The present work is focused on a specific question: is time permanent or not in Kant’s first Critique? I tried to find out my answer on the papers written by authors from Anglo-American tradition, who don’t seem so interested in this topic. Indeed, the former problem was to find remarks about it. Then I highlighted two different points of view: ones think that time is permanent. They tried to warrant this, using especially what Kant says about it in the second edition section dedicated to first Analogy. Others think that time flows, in particular when it’s considered as medi- ate external sense. Finally, I tried to explain why, on my point of view, it’s possible to find in Kant this two contrary position and how it is possible to get out from this situation.

Demographic consequences of artificial selection at the LAP locus in voles Microtus townsendi
Creators: name: LeDuc, Janice Irene
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: A number of studies on small mammals have shewn that changes in the frequency of alleles at polymorphic loci are correlated with population fluctuations. To determine whether this association between demography and genetics is causal, I altered gene frequencies in two field populations of M. townsendi Using starch gel electrophoresis, I detected a leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) polymorphism in M. townsendi. The fast allele, LAP-F, was present in a control population at a frequency of about .35 from July 1971 to July 1973. By removing homozygous SS voles from one experimental population I maintained an LAP-F frequency of about .75. Removal of FF homozygotes from a second population resulted in an LAP-F frequency of about .25. I monitored demographic variables of the populations while the selection was being applied. The populations went through increasing and peak phases and then declined sharply during the spring of 1973. There were indications that different genotypes had an advantage in survival and reproduction during different phases of population density. The selection that maintained the polymorphism on the control area could be correlated with population density. However, the overall fitness of each experimental population was not affected by its genotypic composition at this locus.
L’IA e la semantica
Creators: name: Peruzzi, Alberto
Publisher: name: Annali del Dipartimento di Filosofia
Year: 2002

description: The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has led to many controversies of philosophical interest involving issues of logic, computer science, software engeneering. The paper goes through the main steps of this development, deals with their philosophical relevance and sketches the unsolved problems, with special emphasis on the AI models of semantic competence. Some criticisms raised to such models in AI, either in its “classical” or “neural networks” format, are examined. On the ground of the discussion of these criticisms, a view is proposed which avoids the inherited gap between the project of AI and naturalistic philosophy and suggests that filling the gap also provides a filter in order to select a definite form of naturalism.

Year: 2002

description: Fichte’s philosophy of religion may be described as articulated in a pattern that evolves from a criticism of the concept of revelation – based on Kant’s illuminism – to an original merge of Neoplatonism and Christianism. This essay outlines the main stages of such process through an analysis of Fichte’s works addressing this matter and of relevant passages found elsewhere in his opera. The interpretation of Fiche’s philosophy of religion proposed hereby is essentially comprehensive homogeneous and attempts both to explain its main issues and to assess its internal coherence.

description: This paper aims at thoroughly analyzing the relation between Thucydides’s political realism and Hobbes’s one, first of all by examining the Hobbesian translation of The Peloponnesian War, then by stressing the peculiarities of the political theory of the English philosopher. Compared to Thucydides, Hobbes presents a more complex, problematic – and truly more useful to define a theory of modernity – version of political realism, which considers not only power and security, but also ideological elements in order to understand human conflicts.

description: We consider an atomic Fermi gas confined in a uniform optical lattice potential, where the atoms can pair into molecules via a magnetic field controlled narrow Feshbach resonance. Thus by adjusting the magnetic field the portion of fermionic and bosonic particles in the system can be continuously varied. We analyze the statistical mechanics of this system and consider the interplay of the lattice physics with the atom-molecule conversion. We study the entropic behavior of the system and characterize the temperature changes that occur during adiabatic ramps across the Feshbach resonance. We show that an appropriate choice of filling fraction can be used to reduce the system temperature during such ramps.

description: Genotoxicity refers to the ability of harmful agents to damage the genetic material within a cell, leading to mutations, cancer, and other health risks. Understanding genotoxicity is crucial for assessing the safety of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and environmental pollutants. Genotoxicity assays in rats are widely used in research to detect DNA damage, helping to evaluate the potential long-term effects of exposure to toxic substances. Identifying genotoxic agents plays a key role in ensuring public health, as it guides regulatory decisions and promotes safer practices in industries.
On the relation between local and geometric Lagrangians for higher spins

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: Equations of motion for free higher-spin gauge fields of any symmetry can be formulated in terms of linearised curvatures. On the other hand, gauge invariance alone does not fix the form of the corresponding actions which, in addition, either contain higher derivatives or involve inverse powers of the d'Alembertian operator, thus introducing possible subtleties in degrees of freedom count. We suggest a path to avoid ambiguities, starting from local, unconstrained Lagrangians previously proposed, and integrating out the auxiliary fields from the functional integral, thus generating a unique non-local theory expressed in terms of curvatures.

Natura umana e biotecnologia. Recenti interventi e quadro storico

Year: 2006

description: The purpose of this paper is to show how the complex problem that concerns the relationship of man and nature is one of the main theoretical elements of the current debate on biotecnology. The notions of naturality and artificiality – of what is ‘given’ and what is ‘make’ – are amply analized by reference to a few authors of the philosophical tradition, but particularly to the ones belonging to the modern age. Two forms of naturalism derive from the way by which such notions are correlated: one that emphasizes the dependence of man on nature, another that stresses man’s ability to act on nature.

Virtù e vizi del concretismo

description: Concretism is the ontological thesis according to which possibilia (roughly: what renders true our statements about possibility) are concrete entities. The paper first outlines concretism, arguing that its sole founding thesis is that individuals across possible worlds are individuated by similitude. Among other things, this means that there is no need to postulate that there is no overlap among worlds. The main virtues and vices of concretism are then reviewed, and a novel vice is put forward: a failure in the reduction of modality due to the modal character of intrinsicness.

STAR's unique forward capabilities, especially the Forward Meson Spectrometer electromagnetic calorimeter, allow us the possibility of investigating the intrinsic charm components of the proton wave function using high-$x_F$ forward particles produced in asymmetric partonic collisions. Mid-rapidity measurements in d+Au collisions extend our understanding of the mechanisms underlying heavy quarkonium production and its transport through cold nuclear matter.

Output Width Signal Control In Asynchronous Digital Systems Using External Clock Signal
Creators: name: Timis, Mihai
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Other Computer Science (cs.OH)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In present paper, I propose a method for resolving the timing delays for output signals from an asynchronous sequential system. It will be used an example of an asynchronous sequential system that will set up an output signal when an input signal will be set up. The width of the output signal depends on the input signal width, and in this case it is very short. There are many synthesis methods, like using a RC group system, a monostable system in design of the asynchronous digital system or using an external clock signal, CK. In this paper will be used an external clock signal, CK.

description: The present study aims to determine the prevalence and distribution of sickle cell traits in Koraput district of Odisha along with the financial burden on households. A total of 1092 individuals of either sex, aged above 30 years, were randomly screened. Blood samples from each individual were collected and tested using the sodium metabisulphite (Na2S2O5) technique to determine the presence of the sickled red blood cell. Demographic information and family (n=552) expenditure on health were recorded. The prevalence of sickle cell hemoglobin was found to be 9.43% in the studied population. The sickle cell hemoglobin is widespread in Koraput district of Odisha state and more prevalent in scheduled castes (9.98%) than in tribal groups (3.33 %). The present study observed a tendency for the sickling rate to be higher in people of lower age groups. The average annual healthcare expenditure was very high (3% to 64.4% of the family income) in families with sickle cell hemoglobinopathies. In contrast, the healthcare expenditure was 0.78% to 18.4% in families without sickle cell hemoglobin. Furthermore, the study explored that due to the consanguineal marriage practice, hesitance and social stigma toward sickle cell carrier screening, the genetic load is increasing for the sickle cell trait in the studied population.

description: Most news recommender systems try to identify users' interests and news' attributes and use them to obtain recommendations. Here we propose an adaptive model which combines similarities in users' rating patterns with epidemic-like spreading of news on an evolving network. We study the model by computer agent-based simulations, measure its performance and discuss its robustness against bias and malicious behavior. Subject to the approval fraction of news recommended, the proposed model outperforms the widely adopted recommendation of news according to their absolute or relative popularity. This model provides a general social mechanism for recommender systems and may find its applications also in other types of recommendation.

Optimal Cloning and Singlet Monogamy

Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: The inability to produce two perfect copies of an unknown state is inherently linked with the inability to produce maximal entanglement between multiple spins. Despite this, there is no quantitative link between how much entanglement can be generated between spins (known as monogamy), and how well an unknown state can be cloned. This situation is remedied by giving a set of sufficient conditions such that the optimal Completely Positive map can be implemented as a teleportation operation into a standard, reference, state. The case of arbitrary 1 to N asymmetric cloning of d-dimensional spins can then be solved exactly, yielding the concept of `singlet monogamy'. The utility of this relation is demonstrated by calculating properties of Heisenberg systems, and contrasting them with the results from standard monogamy arguments.

A statistical mechanics approach to autopoietic immune networks

description: The aim of this work is to try to bridge over theoretical immunology and disordered statistical mechanics. Our long term hope is to contribute to the development of a quantitative theoretical immunology from which practical applications may stem. In order to make theoretical immunology appealing to the statistical physicist audience we are going to work out a research article which, from one side, may hopefully act as a benchmark for future improvements and developments, from the other side, it is written in a very pedagogical way both from a theoretical physics viewpoint as well as from the theoretical immunology one. Furthermore, we have chosen to test our model describing a wide range of features of the adaptive immune response in only a paper: this has been necessary in order to emphasize the benefit available when using disordered statistical mechanics as a tool for the investigation. However, as a consequence, each section is not at all exhaustive and would deserve deep investigation: for the sake of completeness, we restricted details in the analysis of each feature with the aim of introducing a self-consistent model.

description: Recently, several types of degenerate Bell polynomials have been introduced as degenerate versions of the ordinary Bell polynomials. The aim of this paper is to study some identities for the degenerate Bell polynomials and their related identities by making use of series transformation formula obtained by Boyadzhiev. In particular, this answers to the natural question about the relationship between two different types of degenerate Bell polynomials.

description: The volume presents the results of a research project  (named “Legafight”) funded by the Luxembourg Fond National de la Recherche   in order to verify if and how digital tracing applications could be implemented in the Grand-Duchy in order to counter and abate the Covid-19 pandemic. This inevitably brought to a deep comparative overview of the various existing various models, starting from that of the European Union and those put into practice by Belgium, France, Germany and Italy, with attention also to some Anglo-Saxon approaches (the UK and Australia). Not surprisingly the main issue which had to be tackled was that of the protection of the personal data collected through the tracing applications, their use by public health authorities and the trust laid in tracing procedures by citizens. Over the last 18 months  tracing apps have registered a rise, a fall, and a sudden rebirth as mediums devoted not so much to collect data, but rather to distribute real time information which should allow informed decisions and be used as repositories of health certifications.

Revisiting wage, earnings, and hours profiles

Subjects: SECS-P/01 Economia politica

description: We document empirical life cycle profiles of wages, earnings, and hours of work for pay from
the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, following the same workers for up to four decades. For
six of the eight cohorts we analyze the wage profile does not decline with age (not before 65,
at least), while the earnings profile always does. The discrepancy is explained by a sharp drop
in the hours of work for pay profile beginning shortly after age 50, when many workers start a
smooth transition into retirement by working progressively fewer hours. This pattern is not an
artifact of staggered abrupt retirement, and is robust to attrition and selection-correction (i.e.,
taking into account that the composition of our sample, for a given cohort, changes over time).
We explore the nontrivial restrictions on dynamic models of the aggregate economy that this
evidence suggests, and we provide numerical profiles that can be readily used in quantitative
macroeconomic analysis.

description: We demonstrate that the onset of complex spin orders in ACr$_2$O$_4$ spinels with magnetic A$=$Co, Fe and Cu ions lowers the lattice symmetry. This is clearly indicated by the emergence of anisotropic lattice dynamics -- as evidenced by the pronounced phonon splittings -- even when experiments probing static distortions fail. We show that the crystal symmetry in the magnetic phase is reduced from tetragonal to orthorhombic for FeCr$_2$O$_4$ and CuCr$_2$O$_4$ with Jahn-Teller active A-site ions. The conical spin structure in FeCr$_2$O$_4$ is also manifested in the phonon frequencies. In contrast, the multiferroic CoCr$_2$O$_4$ with no orbital degrees of freedom remains nearly cubic in its ground state.
