description: This thesis investigates what the implications of growth are on the urban form in the Greater Oslo Region. It shows that significant strides are in the making to ensure a denser, public transit oriented development that preserves natural assets and facilitates for more town development at designated transportation nodes in the region. However, at this time execution does not follow intention. The Regional Plan remains a strategy not a legislative document, the investment into the public transit is not yet aligned with the new Plan and too much rule remains in the hands of the municipalities to foresee the successful implementation of a denser more efficient and sustainable urban form in the region around Norway’s capitol. For example, the region continues to see mostly single family home developments, new shopping centers, and an inadequate alternative transportation development — despite the level of awareness amongst most that change is necessary to become a more sustainable region.
Further, this thesis investigates the Fornebu development project as a high-profile project within the Greater Oslo Region, asking whether its development model is a good model for the region to develop by. The answer is complex with cons and pros, but in general this thesis argues that Fornebu does not live up to the role of being a pilot project for the region. Even at its proposed new form Fornebu is not ambitious enough in its sustainability, social, and urban form to be a viable pilot.

description: We use spin-coherent states as a time-dependent variational ansatz for a semiclassical description of a large family of Heisenberg models. In addition to common approaches we also evaluate the square variance of the Hamiltonian in terms of coherent states. This quantity turns out to have a natural interpretation with respect to time-dependent solutions of the equations of motion and allows for an estimate of quantum fluctuations in a semiclassical regime. The general results are applied to solitons, instantons and vortices in several one- and two-dimensional models.

Challenges and place-based solutions in rural music education : a UBC study sponsored by the Rix Family Foundation
Creators: name: Prest, Anita
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: [Conference Program Abstract] Rural music education encounters unique challenges, not limited to declining enrollment, secondary timetabling in small schools, recruitment and retention of specialized teachers, professional isolation, lack of professional development for elementary generalists, and lack of access to private music lessons, live concerts, and/or role models. Given this situation, the purpose of my study is to identify not only the 10 challenges of rural music education, but some place-based solutions related to school structure, professional skills, and community connections with the goal of finding ways to make rural music education both viable and vibrant for students as part of a complete educational experience. In April, I will conduct 45-minute phone interviews with 18 superintendents, administrators, and music teachers from 17 rural school districts in British Columbia and the Northwest Territories. These participants volunteered to be part of this in-depth study after completing a survey I conducted last fall. I will ask open-ended questions on three topics: 1) structural/administrative difficulties in providing a sequential music program, 2) teacher preparation, professional development, and retention, and 3) school/community linkages to local music making. It is my hope that each participant will elaborate on local issues and innovative ideas regarding music education during the course of the interview. At the conference, I will present my initial findings from these interviews. I hope to encourage discussion concerning the issues and initial findings with conference participants in an effort to stimulate thought and awareness of this topic.

Nonlinear Dynamics of A Damped Magnetic Oscillator
Creators: name: Kim, Sang-Yoon
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider a damped magnetic oscillator, consisting of a permanent magnet in a periodically oscillating magnetic field. A detailed investigation of the dynamics of this dissipative magnetic system is made by varying the field amplitude $A$. As $A$ is increased, the damped magnetic oscillator, albeit simple looking, exhibits rich dynamical behaviors such as symmetry-breaking pitchfork bifurcations, period-doubling transitions to chaos, symmetry-restoring attractor-merging crises, and saddle-node bifurcations giving rise to new periodic attractors. Besides these familiar behaviors, a cascade of ``resurrections'' (i.e., an infinite sequence of alternating restabilizations and destabilizations) of the stationary points also occurs. It is found that the stationary points restabilize (destabilize) through alternating subcritical (supercritical) period-doubling and pitchfork bifurcations. We also discuss the critical behaviors in the period-doubling cascades.

This then puts these in the Community zone in Alma for use by other Alma users providing a seamless workflow with authority records linking to bibliographic records. Cataloguers also put identifiers in these NACO records-ORCID, VIAF, ISNI, etc. URIs in the 670s of these records also link to Monash University researcher profiles in PURE. NACO records are automatically in VIAF and the LC linked data service, thus creating linked data. As library systems enable their systems to use linked data our records will be ready to be part of linked data.
The Impact of Multifamily Group Services on the Parents of Transgender and Gender Expansive Youth

description: Family acceptance is life-saving for transgender and gender expansive youth (TGEY) and is predictive of TGEY mental health (Olson, Durwood, DeMeules, & McLaughlin, 2016; Olson- Kennedy et al., 2016; Pariseau et al., 2019; Ryan, Huebner, Diaz, & Sanchez, 2009). Family related factors such as stress, minority stress factors, lack of knowledge, isolation, and gendered expectations may make it difficult for parents to support TGEY. Multifamily group services (MFGs) target parental behaviors, attitudes, and parental minority stress to increase family acceptance of TGEY (Malpas, Glaeser, & Giammattei, 2018). MFGs have yet to be quantitatively evaluated for their impact on parental behavior and attitude change and parental minority stress. Using a real-world effectiveness approach, this study proposed to expand the field by examining the relationship of MFGs on parental behavior and attitude change and parental minority stress over time. It was hypothesized that parents would increase their affirmative attitudes and behavior over time and that parental minority stress would decrease over time as based on MFG attendance. It was also hypothesized that parental attitudes and behaviors would predict parental minority stress toward TGEY after attending MFGs. Results suggest that hypotheses were partially supported as mothers increased affirmative behavior and attitudes throughout the intervention period, but fathers did not. For all caregivers, parental minority stress factors were predicted by affirmative behaviors and attitudes. Conclusions and implications are discussed.
One-Shot Randomized and Nonrandomized Partial Decoupling

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We introduce a task that we call partial decoupling, in which a bipartite quantum state is transformed by a unitary operation on one of the two subsystems and then is subject to the action of a quantum channel. We assume that the subsystem is decomposed into a direct-sum-product form, which often appears in the context of quantum information theory. The unitary is chosen at random from the set of unitaries having a simple form under the decomposition. The goal of the task is to make the final state, for typical choices of the unitary, close to the averaged final state over the unitaries. We consider a one-shot scenario, and derive upper and lower bounds on the average distance between the two states. The bounds are represented simply in terms of smooth conditional entropies of quantum states involving the initial state, the channel and the decomposition. Thereby we provide generalizations of the one-shot decoupling theorem. The obtained result would lead to further development of the decoupling approaches in quantum information theory and fundamental physics.

Representing nakleng: modernity, media and masculinities in Thailand (1948-2018)
Creators: name: WANCHANA TONGKHAMPAO
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: 200104 Media Studies
subject: FOS: Media and communications

description: This thesis presents a cultural history of the representation of nakleng − a traditional masculine figure that is rebranded and popularised in Thai popular culture − from 1948 to 2018. It argues that the tension between an emerging media industry’s desire to commoditise the fantasy of a heroic nakleng, and the state’s aspiration to criminalise and demonise the same figure, accounts for the pluralized and dynamic form of nakleng portrayals in various popular media. The study finds that nakleng figure in popular media represents the everchanging Thai masculine identity across seven decades in the local, national and global levels.

QCD Instantons and High-Energy Diffractive Scattering

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We pursue the intriguing possibility that larger-size instantons build up diffractive scattering, with the marked instanton-size scale approximately 0.5 fm being reflected in the conspicuous ``geometrization'' of soft QCD. As an explicit step in this direction, the known instanton-induced cross sections in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) are transformed into the familiar colour dipole picture, which represents an intuitive framework for investigating the transition from hard to soft physics in DIS at small x_{Bj}. The simplest instanton (I) process without final-state gluons is studied first. With the help of lattice results, the q bar{q}-dipole size r is carefully increased towards hadronic dimensions. Unlike perturbative QCD, one now observes a competition between two crucial length scales: the dipole size r and the size rho of the background instanton that is sharply localized around approximately 0.5 fm. For r exceeding , the dipole cross section indeed saturates towards a geometrical limit, proportional to the area pi ^2, subtended by the instanton. In case of final-state gluons, lattice data are crucially used to support the emerging picture and to assert the range of validity of the underlying I bar{I}-valley approach. As function of an appropriate energy variable, the resulting dipole cross section turns out to be sharply peaked at the sphaleron mass in the soft regime. The general geometrical features remain like in the case without gluons.

description: The purpose of this paper is to articulate the mediation of information with gender studies, specially LGBTphobia, with focus on the information process at the Reference Center of LBGT Rights and Fight against Homophobia of Paraíba, known as LGBT Space, by describing and disseminating data on the care of transvestites and transexuals. The research, characterized as descriptive and quantitative, utilizes documental sources, that is, the records of the care of transvestites and transexuals attended at LBGT Space between 2011 and 2014. It uses descriptive statistics as a data analysis instrument. It was possible to observe aspects of LBGTphobia that extends beyond regional context and whose confrontation is connected, among other aspects, to the dissemination of precise and reliable information. It is understood that access to and use of quantitative data has the potencial of resignify subaltern relations involving transvestites and transexuals. In this process, it’s considered that the information professional must be evoked as a mediator of information since they reflect on how the dissemination, organization and access to information can contribute to the respect of human rights.

description: The study aims to explore the casual relationship between the open space and the value of its neighboring residential property in New York City. By using hedonic pricing models, the study specifically focuses on analyzing the impact of the open space’s size, type, and proximity on residential property values. Results show that open spaces do have a statistically significant impact on the values of residential properties and that different sizes and distances to the residential property have differing despite small impacts. The type of the open space, together with the major age group in the neighborhood, has a collaborative impact on home value changes.

A non extensive approach to the entropy of symbolic sequences

description: Symbolic sequences with long-range correlations are expected to result in a slow regression to a steady state of entropy increase. However, we prove that also in this case a fast transition to a constant rate of entropy increase can be obtained, provided that the extensive entropy of Tsallis with entropic index q is adopted, thereby resulting in a new form of entropy that we shall refer to as Kolmogorov-Sinai-Tsallis (KST) entropy. We assume that the same symbols, either 1 or -1, are repeated in strings of length l, with the probability distribution p(l) proportional to 1/(l^mu). The numerical evaluation of the KST entropy suggests that at the value mu = 2 a sort of abrupt transition might occur. For the values of mu in the range 1 diverges, thereby breaking the balance between determinism and randomness in favor of determinism. In the region mu > 2 the entropic index q seems to depend on mu through the power law expression q = (mu-2)^(alpha) with alpha approximately 0.13 (q = 1 with mu > 3). It is argued that this phase-transition like property signals the onset of the thermodynamical regime at mu = 2.

description: It is the purpose of this study to make a job analysis of the duties performed during a period of one year (1926- 1927) by a representative number of city superintendents of schools in the state of Texas. As a result of the analysis it is proposed to accomplish the following objectives: 1. To present data which may be used by superintendents as a basis for a comparison of their professional activities with those reported. 2. To furnish the basis for the establishment of courses specially designed for the training of city school superintendents. 3. To show the duties which are so infrequently and uncommonly performed as to indicate that their performance is not a standard part of the chief executive's work. 4. To show the emphasis placed upon the importance and variety of those duties of the superintendent which have to do with his relationships as a community leader. 5. To determine the professional activities in which Texas superintendents are engaged, and to ascertain whether the duties most commonly performed are those which were considered of major administrative importance by a group of fifty judges who evaluated them. 6. To ascertain whether or not the size of the school enrollment is a major factor in determining the number and type of administrative duties performed by the city superintendents of Texas. 7. To ascertain whether or not the size of the weekly teaching load is a major factor in determining the number and type of administrative duties performed by the city superintendents of Texas
The Impact of Outness and Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Identity Formation on Mental Health

description: Conflicting literature exists for the relationship between first disclosure, outness, sexual minority identity, and mental health among lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) individuals. That is, while the relationship between LGB identity and mental health has been relatively consistently positive in the literature, the relationship between outness and mental health is more mixed. In addition, the way these constructs differ among race, sex, and sexual orientation are rarely examined. The present study examined the complex relationship between first disclosure, outness, identity, and mental health among 192 lesbian, gay, and bisexual individuals collected from an online sample. The study explored differences on these variables by biological sex, race, age, and sexual orientation. The major findings revealed that bisexual males have less developed sexual minority identities and view their identities less positively than do lesbian, gay, and bisexual female individuals. In addition, bisexual individuals overall are less out and come out later for the first time in comparison to lesbian and gay individuals. In terms of race, Caucasians have a stronger and more positive view of their sexual identity in comparison to individuals of color. It was also found that individuals in later stages of sexual identity development experienced a more positive view of their sexual identity. In terms of mental health, it was revealed that a stronger sexual identity was related to better mental health. Greater degree of outness was found to overall have a moderately positive impact on mental health, though age of first disclosure of sexual minority status was, overall, not associated to measures of identity or mental health. When examined more closely, outness had a more complex, dual impact on mental health. Specifically, outness was found to have both positive and negative consequences for mental health, with identity development accounting for the positive aspects of outness.  Directions for future research and implications for clinicians are also discussed.

description: We study a minimal shell model for the advection of a passive scalar by a Gaussian time correlated velocity field. The anomalous scaling properties of the white noise limit are studied analytically. The effect of the time correlations are investigated using perturbation theory around the white noise limit and non-perturbatively by numerical integration. The time correlation of the velocity field is seen to enhance the intermittency of the passive scalar.

Extension of Killing vector fields beyond compact Cauchy horizons

description: We prove that any compact Cauchy horizon with constant non-zero surface gravity in a smooth vacuum spacetime is a smooth Killing horizon. The novelty here is that the Killing vector field is shown to exist on both sides of the horizon. This generalises classical results by Moncrief and Isenberg, by dropping the assumption that the metric is analytic. In previous work by Rácz and the author, the Killing vector field was constructed on the globally hyperbolic side of the horizon. In this paper, we prove a new unique continuation theorem for wave equations through smooth compact lightlike (characteristic) hypersurfaces which allows us to extend the Killing vector field beyond the horizon. The main ingredient in the proof of this theorem is a novel Carleman type estimate. Using a well-known construction, our result applies in particular to smooth stationary asymptotically flat vacuum black hole spacetimes with event horizons with constant non-zero surface gravity. As a special case, we therefore recover Hawking's local rigidity theorem for such black holes, which was recently proven by Alexakis-Ionescu-Klainerman using a different Carleman type estimate.

A qualitative evaluation of sustainability-related courses at UBC

description: [Conference Program Abstract] Climate and environmental changes are the most serious threat faced by our human society today. Teaching and learning about these issues are the most essential and crucial ways to not only investigate and solve these 21 problems but also increase awareness, monitor, and evaluate these ongoing challenges and propose alternative modes. Universities are looked upon as change agents, where both knowledge creation and knowledge exchange occurs. With the underlying theme of globalization and encouraging students to be global citizens, UBC adopted a sustainable development policy in 1997 and revised it in the most recent UBC Sustainability Academic Strategy (SAS) 2009. The new UBC SAS focuses on promoting sustainable practices through teaching, learning and research. UBC offers over 350 courses related to sustainability and has several research projects aimed at this issue as well. However, no research has been conducted to evaluate how and whether these courses are promoting sustainability, literacy about climate change, and citizen action among the students who take them. This study seeks to evaluate the impact of teaching and learning initiatives involving sustainability and sustainability-related courses through a qualitative approach, using focus groups and in-depth individual interviews. Further, the study is aimed to investigate students‘ understanding of these concepts and how they implement the strategies for environmental stewardship developed through these courses. Hence the question: How do the courses translate sustainability into sustainable actions or awareness?

description: A major challenge in current optimization research for deep learning is to automatically find optimal step sizes for each update step. The optimal step size is closely related to the shape of the loss in the update step direction. However, this shape has not yet been examined in detail. This work shows empirically that the batch loss over lines in negative gradient direction is mostly convex locally and well suited for one-dimensional parabolic approximations. By exploiting this parabolic property we introduce a simple and robust line search approach, which performs loss-shape dependent update steps. Our approach combines well-known methods such as parabolic approximation, line search and conjugate gradient, to perform efficiently. It surpasses other step size estimating methods and competes with common optimization methods on a large variety of experiments without the need of hand-designed step size schedules. Thus, it is of interest for objectives where step-size schedules are unknown or do not perform well. Our extensive evaluation includes multiple comprehensive hyperparameter grid searches on several datasets and architectures. Finally, we provide a general investigation of exact line searches in the context of batch losses and exact losses, including their relation to our line search approach.

description: Female students continue to lag behind their male counterparts in STEM degree attainment despite performing as well as boys in mathematics and science in high school. Female students who expressed interest in mathematics and science may opt out of majoring in STEM once in college. Given that women may not be perceived as mathematics doers, this perception may affect their decision to pursue STEM careers. In many instances, it is the parents’ encouragement that helps their children to be persistent in mathematics and science. It is important to understand how parents’ involvement in the lives of high-achieving female college students contribute to them persisting and belonging in the STEM domain. In this narrative study, I explored parental influence on mathematics performance, self-efficacy and the factors that may contribute to high-achieving female college students’ interest and persistence in the STEM domain. The participants are eight high-achieving female students from an urban community college who are matriculated STEM majors. This study used Eccles et al.’s (1994) Expectancy-Value Theoretical Model of Achievement Choices and Phelan, Davidson & Yu’s (1998) Multiple Worlds Model to explore parent involvement and the factors that contribute to high-achieving college female’ persistence in STEM. Narratives of the female students’ mathematics experiences were constructed from data collected through multiple sources: student interviews, a parent interview, mathematics autobiographies, and questionnaires. Findings indicate that parents and other family members played an integral role in the students’ mathematics performance, mathematics self-efficacy and persistence in STEM. Furthermore, the depth of parental involvement of several of the participants was consistent throughout their college years.
Gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries: The quadrupole-moment term

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: A rotating star's oblateness creates a deformation in the gravitational field outside the star, which is measured by the quadrupole-moment tensor. We consider the effect of the quadrupole moment on the orbital motion and rate of inspiral of a compact binary system, composed of neutron stars and/or black holes. We find that in the case of circular orbits, the quadrupole-monopole interaction affects the relation between orbital radius and angular velocity, and also the rate of inspiral, by a quantity of order (v/c)^4, where v is the orbital velocity and c the speed of light.
