Computing Individual Discrete Logarithms Faster in GF$(p^n)$ with the NFS-DL Algorithm

description: The Number Field Sieve (NFS) algorithm is the best known method to compute discrete logarithms (DL) in finite fields $\mathbb{F}\_{p^n}$, with $p$ medium to large and $n \geq 1$ small. This algorithm comprises four steps: polynomial selection, relation collection, linear algebra and finally, individual logarithm computation. The first step outputs two polynomials defining two number fields, and a map from the polynomial ring over the integers modulo each of these polynomials to $\mathbb{F}\_{p^n}$. After the relation collection and linear algebra phases, the (virtual) logarithm of a subset of elements in each number field is known. Given the target element in $\mathbb{F}\_{p^n}$, the fourth step computes a preimage in one number field. If one can write the target preimage as a product of elements of known (virtual) logarithm, then one can deduce the discrete logarithm of the target. As recently shown by the Logjam attack, this final step can be critical when it can be computed very quickly. But we realized that computing an individual DL is much slower in medium-and large-characteristic non-prime fields $\mathbb{F}\_{p^n}$ with $n \geq 3$, compared to prime fields and quadratic fields $\mathbb{F}\_{p^2}$. We optimize the first part of individual DL: the \emph{booting step}, by reducing dramatically the size of the preimage norm. Its smoothness probability is higher, hence the running-time of the booting step is much improved. Our method is very efficient for small extension fields with $2 \leq n \leq 6$ and applies to any $n \textgreater{} 1$, in medium and large characteristic.

description: We propose a scheme for the emission of few-cycle dispersive waves in the mid-infrared using hollow-core photonic crystal fibers filled with noble gas. The underlying mechanism is the formation of a plasma cloud by a self-compressed, sub-cycle pump pulse. The resulting free-electron population modifies the fiber dispersion, allowing phase-matched access to dispersive waves at otherwise inaccessible frequencies, well into the mid-IR. Remarkably, the pulses generated turn out to have durations of the order of two optical cycles. In addition, this ultrafast emission, which occurs even in the absence of a zero dispersion point between pump and mid-IR wavelengths, is tunable over a wide frequency range simply by adjusting the gas pressure. These theoretical results pave the way to a new generation of compact, fiber-based sources of few-cycle mid-IR radiation.

description: Violent extremism is a global threat. Researchers and governments have documented different pathways to understand what leads individuals to this behavior. Pathways to violent extremism have not yet holistically studied the impacts of trauma. Trauma, I argue, is an understudied pathway to violent extremism that needs to be examined further—not only because individuals exposed to trauma are more likely to become violent extremists but because of how extremist organizations have leveraged and reframed trauma to pull individuals into extremist groups. This dissertation investigates the relationship between violent extremism and the Social Ecology of Trauma (author’s term). The culmination of personal, collective, intergenerational, and historical trauma create the Social Ecology of Trauma (SET). This dissertation aims to examine the holistic impact of the SET on violent extremism as a push (motivating) and pull (recruiting) factor. A mixed methods approach is employed here. Chapter two consists of a statistical analysis of the Profiles of Radicalized Individuals in the United States (PIRUS) dataset which revealed the statistically significant impact of SET on violent extremism. Chapter three consists of a plausibility probe of Hamas suicide attacks and highlights the complex interplay between trauma and the intervening variables--dissociation and the cycle of violence--in the context of Hamas suicide attacks. The results indicate that we need to understand further the multifaceted impact of the SET on violent extremism. The findings from this research highlight the urgent need for comprehensive interventions that address the social ecology of trauma.

description: We introduce a time-integrator to sample with high order of accuracy the invariant distribution for a class of semilinear SPDEs driven by an additive space-time noise. Combined with a postprocessor, the new method is a modification with negligible overhead of the standard linearized implicit Euler-Maruyama method. We first provide an analysis of the integrator when applied for SDEs (finite dimension), where we prove that the method has order $2$ for the approximation of the invariant distribution, instead of $1$. We then perform a stability analysis of the integrator in the semilinear SPDE context, and we prove in a linear case that a higher order of convergence is achieved. Numerical experiments, including the semilinear heat equation driven by space-time white noise, confirm the theoretical findings and illustrate the efficiency of the approach.

 Johannes Breuer first discussed the definition and relevance of social media data in the social sciences, followed by three ways on how to collect such data (own data collection, cooperation with social media companies, purchase). The second part of the presentation focused on how and why to link social media with survey data, related challenges (including data protection) and a case study conducted at GESIS. In the related video, Johannes Breuer discusses what data linking is and why it is useful to link survey and social media data. The video is also available for viewing on Youtube.

description: In one-channel, finite-size Luttinger one-dimensional quantum dots, both Friedel oscillations and Wigner correlations induce oscillations in the electron density with the same wavelength, pinned at the same position. Therefore, observing such a property does not provide any hint about the formation of a Wigner molecule when electrons interact strongly and other tools must be employed to assess the formation of such correlated states. We compare here the behavior of three different correlation functions and demonstrate that the integrated two point correlation function, which represents the probability density of finding two particles at a given distance, is the only faithful estimator for the formation of a correlated Wigner molecule.

Year: 2021

description: Objectives: To examine the associations of pre-season mental health symptoms and visits to the athletic training room and time loss due to injury. Participants: 40 division I collegiate athletes with an average age of 19.45 +/- 1.18 years. 38 participants were members of the Men’s and Women’s Swim and Dive teams and 2 were members of the Men’s Basketball team. 17 males and 23 females, 93% of the participants identified themselves as White. Methods: Depression, anxiety, subjective well-being, and satisfaction with life symptoms were measured at pre-participation screenings with the PHQ-9, GAD-7, MHC-SF, and PROMIS General Life Satisfaction questionnaires. Visits to the athletic training room and time loss due to injury were collected via electronic medical records. Results: For every unit of measurement higher of pre-season life satisfaction, student-athletes visited the athletic training room 12% less and missed 11% less days after time loss injuries. Conclusion: Pre-season positive mental health symptoms are significantly associated with specific post-injury behaviors and outcomes.

description: We consider a new 3d superconformal index defined as the path integral over $\mathbb{RP}^2 \times \mathbb{S}^1$, and get the generic formula for this index with arbitrary number of U$(1)$ gauge symmetries via the localization technique. We find two consistent parity conditions for the vector multiplet, and name them $\mathcal{P}$ and $\mathcal{CP}$. We find an interesting phenomenon that two matter multiplets coupled to the $\mathcal{CP}$-type vector multiplet merge together. By using this effect, we investigate the simplest version of 3d mirror symmetry on $\mathbb{RP}^2 \times \mathbb{S}^1$ and observe four types of coincidence between the SQED and the XYZ model. We find that merging two matters plays an important role for the agreement.

Multicast Multigroup Beamforming for Per-antenna Power Constrained Large-scale Arrays

description: Large in the number of transmit elements, multi-antenna arrays with per-element limitations are in the focus of the present work. In this context, physical layer multigroup multicasting under per-antenna power constrains, is investigated herein. To address this complex optimization problem low-complexity alternatives to semi-definite relaxation are proposed. The goal is to optimize the per-antenna power constrained transmitter in a maximum fairness sense, which is formulated as a non-convex quadratically constrained quadratic problem. Therefore, the recently developed tool of feasible point pursuit and successive convex approximation is extended to account for practical per-antenna power constraints. Interestingly, the novel iterative method exhibits not only superior performance in terms of approaching the relaxed upper bound but also a significant complexity reduction, as the dimensions of the optimization variables increase. Consequently, multicast multigroup beamforming for large-scale array transmitters with per-antenna dedicated amplifiers is rendered computationally efficient and accurate. A preliminary performance evaluation in large-scale systems for which the semi-definite relaxation constantly yields non rank-1 solutions is presented.

DOES MORE MEAN BETTER? THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CITY NETWORKS ON EMISSIONS REDUCTION ACTIVITY
Creators: name: Killian, Bridget
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: Cities are increasingly important to environmental governance because of their contributions to greenhouse gas emissions and the threats they face due to the climate crisis. City networks provide members with improved communication and resources to address these issues. This research evaluates the effectiveness of these networks using a regression analysis of emissions reduction actions on membership in the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group. This is supplemented by a comparative analysis of the problem-solving capacity, scalability, durability, and influence of city networks of the actions taken by two Portuguese cities, Sintra and Lisbon. While C40 membership has a statistically significant effect on the number of actions taken, the network’s influence on Lisbon’s actions is relatively absent in a comparative analysis. Finding evidence of influence from other city networks, I conclude that it remains possible that city networks influence the quality of the emissions reduction activity of members.
Supplying Stalemates: The Strategic Logic of Arms Transfers to Violent Non-State Actors
Creators: name: Kerr, Thomas Charles
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: State sponsorship of Violent Non-State Actors (VNSAs) has been shown to prolong intra-state conflicts and increase the probability that intra-state conflicts escalate into inter-state wars. The detrimental effect that state sponsorship of VNSAs has to global peace and security warrants a thorough examination. Previous academic studies have examined the logic underpinning state sponsorship but the study of the varying levels of support to different VNSAs states provide has not been fully explored. This study adds to the existing literature by not only demonstrating the strategic logic of sponsorship, but at what magnitude states will aid VNSAs under differing circumstances. State sponsorship takes many forms including financial assistance and the provision of safe havens, but this study will focus on arms transfers. Through the examination of three case studies, I determine that the primary determining factor is the ex-ante probability that the VNSA will be able to perpetuate the conflict. Significant to this study is the finding that VNSAs that are facing elimination may become the most dangerous in terms of weaponry capabilities in a surprisingly short amount of time as state sponsors provide more lethal armaments in an attempt to prolong the conflict.

description: We employed micro-focused Brillouin light scattering to study the amplification of the thermal spin wave eigenmodes by means of a pure spin current, generated by the spin-Hall effect, in a transversely magnetized Pt(4nm)/NiFe(4nm)/SiO2(5nm) layered nanowire with lateral dimensions 500x2750 nm2. The frequency and the cross section of both the center (fundamental) and the edge spin wave modes have been measured as a function of the intensity of the injected dc electric current. The frequency of both modes exhibits a clear redshift while their cross section is greatly enhanced on increasing the intensity of the injected dc. A threshold-like behavior is observed for a value of the injected dc of 2.8 mA. Interestingly an additional mode, localized in the central part of the nanowire, appears at higher frequency on increasing the intensity of the injected dc above the threshold value. Micromagnetic simulations were used to quantitatively reproduce the experimental results and to investigate the complex non-linear dynamics induced by the spin-Hall effect, including the modification of the spatial profile of the spin wave modes and the appearance of the extra mode above the threshold.

description: The Dalgarno's method of perturbation is used to solve the Schrodinger's equation with the Cornell potential $V(r)=-\frac{4α_s}{3r}+br+c$. The short range and long range effect of the potential is incorporated in the same wave function by using two scales $r^S$ and $r^L$ as an integration limit. The results for bounds on r.m.s. radii of various heavy flavored mesons are reported. We have also showed the relation between r.m.s. and charge radius of mesons.

Prioritizing Streams: The Impacts of In-Kind Mitigation Rules on an Ecosystem Offset Market
Creators: name: Ungaro, Matthew
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries

description: Extensive regulations have aimed to protect streams and wetlands threatened by development activities in the United States. However, failures to offset ecosystem damage with restoration of similar ecosystems have impeded ecological success of these policies. How do policies enforcing in-kind mitigation requirements -- e.g., prioritizing stream mitigation for stream impacts -- alter the structure of mitigation markets? I studied the mitigation market of Texas’s Upper Trinity River Basin, where regulators implemented novel, in-kind stream mitigation requirements in 2013. Drawing on impact and mitigation data (2007-2019), I used statistical models to examine the long-term effects of this policy on the Basin’s mitigation markets. I found that this policy spawned an enduring stream mitigation market, while driving declines in stream impact extents and wetland mitigation credits sold and supplied. These findings have implications for other districts seeking to establish in-kind mitigation requirements while protecting the entrenched investments of existing mitigation firms.

description: Background Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) has dramatically enhanced our ability to sequence genomes, but not to assemble them. In practice, many published genome sequences remain in the state of a large set of contigs. Each contig describes the sequence found along some path of the assembly graph, however, the set of contigs does not record all the sequence information contained in that graph. Although many subsequent analyses can be performed with the set of contigs, one may ask whether mapping reads on the contigs is as informative as mapping them on the paths of the assembly graph. Currently, one lacks practical tools to perform mapping on such graphs. Results Here, we propose a formal definition of mapping on a de Bruijn graph, analyse the problem complexity which turns out to be NP-complete, and provide a practical solution.We propose a pipeline called GGMAP (Greedy Graph MAPping). Its novelty is a procedure to map reads on branching paths of the graph, for which we designed a heuristic algorithm called BGREAT (de Bruijn Graph REAd mapping Tool). For the sake of efficiency, BGREAT rewrites a read sequence as a succession of unitigs sequences. GGMAP can map millions of reads per CPU hour on a de Bruijn graph built from a large set of human genomic reads. Surprisingly, results show that up to 22% more reads can be mapped on the graph but not on the contig set. Conclusions Although mapping reads on a de Bruijn graph is complex task, our proposal offers a practical solution combining efficiency with an improved mapping capacity compared to assembly-based mapping even for complex eukaryotic data.

description: Στόχος της παρούσας εργασίας είναι η συγκέντρωση και η ιστορική αξιοποίηση των επιγραφικών κυρίως μαρτυριών μέσω των οποίων διαφαίνεται η προσπάθεια των μελών της ελίτ των ελληνικών πόλεων κατά την ελληνιστική και κυρίως την αυτοκρατορική εποχή να εισάγουν στον πολιτικό στίβο τα νεότερα μέλη των οικογενειών τους. Αυτό πραγματοποιείται είτε με την ανάθεση σ’ αυτά ελάσσονων αξιωμάτων είτε με την υποστήριξη -μέσω μιας διαδικασίας ἐπιμέλειας- της κατάληψης από νεαρά τέκνα κάποιων θέσεων στην πολιτική και κοινωνική ζωή της πόλης. Εκφράσεις όπως ἐν παιδί, ἀπὸ πρώτης ἡλικίας, ή διὰ τῆς ἐπιμελείας τοῦ πατρός κλπ. που συνοδεύουν την άσκηση κάποιου πολιτικού αξιώματος δείχνουν την αγωνία των ενηλίκων να προωθήσουν τους απογόνους τους στην πολιτική ζωή και να τους εντάξουν από νωρίς σε ένα καθορισμένο για την κοινωνική και πολιτική τους θέση σύστημα αξιών. Η εργασία δομείται ως εξής: Το πρώτο κεφάλαιο έχει μεθοδολογικό κυρίως χαρακτήρα και εστιάζει στην ανάλυση των όρων που χρησιμοποιούνται, για να προσδιορίζουν τις ποικίλες ηλικιακές κατηγορίες των νέων. Η οργάνωση των πέντε επιμέρους κεφαλαίων, που έπονται, γίνεται με βασικό κριτήριο τα αξιώματα που κατέχουν τα σχολιαζόμενα πρόσωπα (γυμνασίαρχος, εφήβαρχος, αγωνοθέτης, αγορανόμος, λοιπά-απροσδιόριστα αξιώματα). Στα συμπεράσματα συνοψίζονται: η γεωγραφική διασπορά του φαινομένου, η φύση των αρχών και των λειτουργιών που αναλαμβάνουν παῖδες, ἔφηβοι ή νέοι και η κοινωνική προέλευση των τελευταίων.
description: The aim of this thesis is the gathering and the historical interpretation of the epigraphic testimonies through which is enlightened the effort of the members of the elite of the Greek cities during the Hellenistic and especially the Imperial era to introduce the younger members of their families into the political arena. That occur either by assigning them minor offices or by supporting - through guardianship - the occupation by young descendants of certain positions in the political and social life of the city. Expressions like ἐν παιδί, ἀπὸ πρώτης ἡλικίας, ή διὰ τῆς ἐπιμελείας τοῦ πατρός etc. that accompany the exercise of some political office by minors, show the will of adults to include their descendants in political life and to integrate them from an early age into a system of values determined by their social class. The paper is structured as follows: The first chapter focuses on the clarification of the terms used to define the various age categories of young people. The offices held by minor magistrates are the basic criterion by which the following five chapters are structured (gymnasiarch, ephebarch, agonothetes, agoranomos, other-unspecified offices). They are summarized in the conclusions: the geographical dispersion of the phenomenon, the kind of the authorities and functions held by minors and the social origin of the latter.

The Lorentzian proper vertex amplitude: Asymptotics

description: In previous work, the Lorentzian proper vertex amplitude for a spin-foam model of quantum gravity was derived. In the present work, the asymptotics of this amplitude are studied in the semi-classical limit. The starting point of the analysis is an expression for the amplitude as an action integral with action differing from that in the EPRL case by an extra `projector' term which scales linearly with spins only in the asymptotic limit, and is discontinuous on a submanifold of the integration domain. New tools are introduced to generalize stationary phase methods to this case. For the case of boundary data which can be glued to a non-degenerate Lorentzian 4-simplex, the asymptotic limit of the amplitude is shown to equal the single Feynman term, showing that the extra term in the asymptotics of the EPRL amplitude has been eliminated.

A Nested Variational Time Discretization for Parametric Anisotropic Willmore Flow

description: A variational time discretization of anisotropic Willmore flow combined with a spatial discretization via piecewise affine finite elements is presented. Here, both the energy and the metric underlying the gradient flow are anisotropic, which in particular ensures that Wulff shapes are invariant up to scaling under the gradient flow. In each time step of the gradient flow a nested optimization problem has to be solved. Thereby, an outer variational problem reflects the time discretization of the actual Willmore flow and involves an approximate anisotropic $L^2$-distance between two consecutive time steps and a fully implicit approximation of the anisotropic Willmore energy. The anisotropic mean curvature needed to evaluate the energy integrand is replaced by the time discrete, approximate speed from an inner, fully implicit variational scheme for anisotropic mean curvature motion. To solve the nested optimization problem a Newton method for the associated Lagrangian is applied. Computational results for the evolution of curves underline the robustness of the new scheme, in particular with respect to large time steps.

description: We consider random walks in dynamic random environments, with an environment generated by the time-reversal of a Markov process from the oriented percolation universality class. If the influence of the random medium on the walk is small in space-time regions where the medium is typical, we obtain a law of large numbers and an averaged central limit theorem for the walk via a regeneration construction under suitable coarse-graining. Such random walks occur naturally as spatial embeddings of ancestral lineages in spatial population models with local regulation. We verify that our assumptions hold for logistic branching random walks when the population density is sufficiently high.

description: The VISTA survey of the Magellanic Clouds system (VMC) is a public survey project of the European Southern Observatory. It is collecting multi-band near-infrared data across large areas of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, the Magellanic Bridge and a few fields in the Magellanic Stream. The combination of great sensitivity to stars below the old main sequence turn off, and the multiplicity at Ks band (at least 12 epochs) make VMC highly suitable for the determination of the spatially resolved star formation history and three-dimensional geometry, using variable stars such as Cepheids and RR Lyrae stars. The VMC observations are progressing well and will be completed in 2018. The VMC survey has a high legacy value and many science results have already been published, e.g. the most detailed star formation history map of the Small Magellanic Cloud, and others are in preparation, e.g. a comprehensive investigation of classical Cepheids and a study of the proper motion in the foreground 47 Tuc cluster.

description: We consider a Hopf algebra of simplicial complexes and provide a cancellation-free formula for its antipode. We then obtain a family of combinatorial Hopf algebras by defining a family of characters on this Hopf algebra. The characters of these combinatorial Hopf algebras give rise to symmetric functions that encode information about colorings of simplicial complexes and their $f$-vectors. We also use characters to give a generalization of Stanley's $(-1)$-color theorem. A $q$-analog version of this family of characters is also studied.
