Subjects: subject: Combinatorics (math.CO)

description: Some techniques for the use of bitwise operations are described in the article. As an example, an open problem of isomorphism-free generations of combinatorial objects is discussed. An equivalence relation on the set of square binary matrices having the same number of units in each row and each column is defined. Each binary matrix is represented using ordered n-tuples of natural numbers. It is shown how by using the bitwise operations can be implemented an algorithm that gets canonical representatives which are extremal elements of equivalence classes relative to a double order on the set of considered objects.

description: The political development of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) during WWII was impressive, and scholars have argued that its effective peasant mobilization campaign was the key to its success. While the CCP’s domestic adversary, the Kuomintang (KMT), also spent great efforts in peasant mobilization, their outcomes were rather disappointing. Scholars have debated the reasons and mechanisms behind the CCP’s successful mobilization efforts, with most conventional explanations pointing to the CCP’s manipulation of strong anti-Japanese nationalism and a social revolution movement that benefited the peasantry. Nevertheless, this paper has found existing explanations to be false. Instead, I argue that the CCP’s success in peasant mobilization came from their ability to utilize local-level institutions, which established the party’s authority over the local population and allowed it to interact with the peasantry in the most intimate aspects of their daily lives. This paper uses a comparative case study of the CCP’s peasant mobilization effort in the Shaan-Gan-Ning Border Region and the KMT’s parallel efforts in Shaanxi Province to test the argument and demonstrate its causal mechanism. I find that, while the CCP’s creation and utilization of decentralized local-level institutions established the party as a legitimate figurehead of the masses, the KMT’s attempt to strengthen centralized state institutions and use them to enforce control over the masses through a top-down approach failed abysmally. The findings of this paper shed new light on the study of wartime mobilization and wartime institutions, as well as the state formation process of the PRC.
title: Low-intensity exercise elicits maximal fat oxidation in young healthy men
Creators: name: Zebarjad, Niloofar
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2023

description: Maximal Fat Oxidation (MFO) is a marker of skeletal muscle oxidative capacity
measured through submaximal exercise testing. However, the intensity at which it occurs
remains to be evaluated in nonathletic populations. The study investigated the effect of the
lowest and highest range of self-selected comfortable walking paces on whole-body fat
oxidation. Fourteen young healthy men (age = 28.5 ± 5.0 years, weight = 76.9 ± 10.9 kg,
height = 176.9 ± 5.9 cm, BMI= 24.5 ± 2.8, V̇O2max = 3.8 ± 0.6 ml/min) performed a running
incremental test (GXT) prior to partaking in two 30-min self-selected walking pace (low
and high) trials. Walking paces, V̇O2, V̇CO2, HR, and RPE, were recorded, and substrate
oxidation rates were calculated through stoichiometry equations. The MFO rate
determined during the GXT was 473 ± 201 mg/min and occurred at 39.6 ± 11.8 % of
V̇O2max. Peak fat oxidation (PFO) rates at the lowest (3.5 ± 0.7 km/h) and highest (5.7 ±
0.8 km/h) walking paces were significantly different (p-value=0.001; 254 ± 11 vs. 436 ±
11 mg/min, respectively). The lowest and highest self-selected walking paces corresponded
to 21.2 ± 3.8 and 35.8 ± 5.9 % V̇O2max, respectively. At the highest walking pace, no
statistical difference was observed between MFO and PFO.

description: The ability to control and tune interactions in ultracold atomic gases has paved the way towards the realization of new phases of matter. Whereas experiments have so far achieved a high degree of control over short-ranged interactions, the realization of long-range interactions would open up a whole new realm of many-body physics and has become a central focus of research. Rydberg atoms are very well-suited to achieve this goal, as the van der Waals forces between them are many orders of magnitude larger than for ground state atoms. Consequently, the mere laser excitation of ultracold gases can cause strongly correlated many-body states to emerge directly when atoms are transferred to Rydberg states. A key example are quantum crystals, composed of coherent superpositions of different spatially ordered configurations of collective excitations. Here we report on the direct measurement of strong correlations in a laser excited two-dimensional atomic Mott insulator using high-resolution, in-situ Rydberg atom imaging. The observations reveal the emergence of spatially ordered excitation patterns in the high-density components of the prepared many-body state. They have random orientation, but well defined geometry, forming mesoscopic crystals of collective excitations delocalised throughout the gas. Our experiment demonstrates the potential of Rydberg gases to realise exotic phases of matter, thereby laying the basis for quantum simulations of long-range interacting quantum magnets.

description: We propose a new method for Monte Carlo solution of non-linear integral equations by combining the Newton-Kantorovich method for solving non-linear equations with the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for solving linear equations. The Newton-Kantorovich method allows to express the non-linear equation as a system of the linear equations which then can be treated by the MCMC (random walk) algorithm. We apply this method to the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation describing evolution of gluon density at low x. Results of numerical computations show that the MCMC method is both precise and efficient. The presented algorithm may be particularly suited for solving more complicated and higher-dimensional non-linear integral equation, for which traditional methods become unfeasible.

description: In preparation for future, large-scale, multi-object, high-resolution spectroscopic surveys of the Galaxy, we present a series of tests of the precision in radial velocity and chemical abundances that any such project can achieve at a 4m class telescope. We briefly discuss a number of science cases that aim at studying the chemo-dynamical history of the major Galactic components (bulge, thin and thick disks, and halo) - either as a follow-up to the Gaia mission or on their own merits. Based on a large grid of synthetic spectra that cover the full range in stellar parameters of typical survey targets, we devise an optimal wavelength range and argue for a moderately high-resolution spectrograph. As a result, the kinematic precision is not limited by any of these factors, but will practically only suffer from systematic effects, easily reaching uncertainties <1 km/s. Under realistic survey conditions (namely, considering stars brighter than r=16 mag with reasonable exposure times) we prefer an ideal resolving power of R~20000 on average, for an overall wavelength range (with a common two-arm spectrograph design) of [395;456.5] nm and [587;673] nm. We show for the first time on a general basis that it is possible to measure chemical abundance ratios to better than 0.1 dex for many species (Fe, Mg, Si, Ca, Ti, Na, Al, V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, Y, Ba, Nd, Eu) and to an accuracy of about 0.2 dex for other species such as Zr, La, and Sr. While our feasibility study was explicitly carried out for the 4MOST facility, the results can be readily applied to and used for any other conceptual design study for high-resolution spectrographs.

description: We propose a recursive algorithm for the calculation of multi-baryon correlation functions that combines the advantages of a recursive approach with those of the recently proposed unified contraction algorithm. The independent components of the correlators are built recursively by adding the baryons one after the other in a given order. The list of nonzero independent components is also constructed in a recursive manner, significantly reducing the resources required for this step. We computed the number of operations required to calculate the correlators up to Be^8, and observed a significant speedup compared to other techniques. For the calculation of He^4 and Be^8 correlation functions in the fully relativistic case O(10^8) operations are required, whereas for non-relativistic operators this number can be reduced to e.g. O(10^4) in the case of He^4.

A comparison is done to the measurements performed by the CLAS collaboration at JLab accelerator for the exclusive reaction $γp\rightarrow pf_0(980)$. In the analysis the partial S-wave differential cross section is described by a model based on Regge approach with reggeized exchanges and distinct scenarios for the $f_0(980)\rightarrow Vγ$ coupling are considered. It is shown that such a process can provide information on the resonance structure and production mechanism.

description: High concentrate (HC) diet feeding leads to the lysis of rumen microbes and the release of hazardous metabolites, which can trigger inflammatory responses, thereby impairing dairy cow health and production. γ-D-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelic acid (iE-DAP), which constitutes the peptidoglycan (PGN) layer of bacteria, is the minimum PGN structure capable of activating inflammatory signaling pathways. This research paper aimed to determine the iE-DAP concentration and investigate the effects of an HC diet on the concentration of iE-DAP in the rumen fluid of dairy cows. However, there are limited studies on the determination of iE-DAP concentration. Hence, we established a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method combined with pre-column chiral derivatization to detect the concentration of iE-DAP in rumen fluid. Moreover, we conducted an animal experiment that included 12 lactating Holstein cows, which were randomly divided into a low-concentrate (LC) group and an HC group. The results showed that the linear range of iE-DAP was 5–500 µg/mL and that the intra- and inter-day RSDs were lower than 7%. Meanwhile, this method was successfully applied to the analysis of iE-DAP in rumen fluid, and the results revealed that long-term feeding with an HC diet elevated the concentration of iE-DAP in rumen fluid of dairy cows.

description: The dual partial phonon density of states (DOS) from two different Mossbauer isotopes (161Dy and 57Fe) in the same material (DyFe3) was successfully measured using the nuclear resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (NRIXS) technique at high pressure. Nuclear inelastic scattering measurements yield an in-depth understanding of the element-specific dynamic properties. The Debye temperatures, the Lamb-Mossbauer factor (fLM), and the vibrational contributions to the Helmholtz free energy (Fvib), specific heat (cV ), entropy (Svib) and internal energy (Uvib) are calculated directly from the phonon density of states.

description: We assess the ability of future neutron beta decay measurements of up to O(10^{-4}) precision to falsify the standard model, particularly the V-A law, and to identify the dynamics beyond it. To do this, we employ a maximum likelihood statistical framework which incorporates both experimental and theoretical uncertainties. Using illustrative combined global fits to Monte Carlo pseudodata, we also quantify the importance of experimental measurements of the energy dependence of the angular correlation coefficients as input to such efforts, and we determine the precision to which ill-known "second-class" hadronic matrix elements must be determined in order to exact such tests.

TUNING THE STRUCTURAL AND ELECTRONIC PROPERTIES OF TRANSITION-METAL INTERCALATED WS2
Creators: name: Zhu, Kuixin
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2023
Subjects: Inorganic chemistry not elsewhere classified

description: Tuning the structural and electronic properties of layered materials is critical for the development of thin, flexible semiconductors that are capable of overcoming Moore’s law. Intercalation of transition metals (TMs) into the interlayer gaps of a two-dimensional host material is one of the most promising methods toward modifying the electronic properties without disrupting the chemical bonds within the layers. Previous studies have shown that the intercalation of TMs into Bi2Se3, SnS2, TaS2, and NbS2 altered the electronic, optical, and magnetic properties of the material due to orbital hybridization between the d-orbitals of the intercalant and the bands of the host material. However, the synthesis of intercalated 2D materials using compositionally-limited because the process is driven by a charge transfer reaction from the intercalant to the conduction band of the host material, which is difficult to achieve on group VI TMDs (MoS2, WS2) with high energy conduction bands. As a result, only metal atoms that are highly reducing, like alkali metals, can be effectively intercalated into WS2. Meanwhile, alkali metal-intercalated WS2 materials are unstable under ambient conditions, which significantly limits further device application. In this dissertation, we developed a solution-phase synthetic method to successfully intercalate a broad range of redox-active TM cations into WS2 and access a variety of intercalation morphologies. With these different intercalated structures, the electronic properties of WS2 can be systematically adjusted. First, we synthesized vanadium-intercalated WS2, and structural characterization reveals that solvated vanadium cations are uniformly intercalated in WS2, which significantly increases the interlayer spacing from 6.2 Å to 14.2 Å. Raman and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) experiments indicate a strong interaction between the vanadium intercalants and the WS2 basal plane. Electronic transport measurements show that the vanadium-intercalated WS2 is an n-type semiconductor with room-temperature conductivity of 12 S/cm, 2 orders of magnitude higher than pristine WS2. The electronic properties can be further tuned by varying the concentration of V intercalants. We further synthesized TM-intercalated WS2 using 17 different metal precursors, varying the identity, reduction potential, charge density, and ionic radius in order to determine the key properties that influence intercalation. With detailed structural characterization, we determined that both charge density and reduction potential of the precursor are critical toward achieving selective intercalation over secondary nucleation. The strength of the host-guest interaction is also dependent on the transition metal identity. With the strongest interaction between the TM intercalants and WS2 basal plane, FeCl3-WS2 has the lowest work function of 4.97 eV and the highest conductivity of 110 S/cm.

In this paper we give a counterexample to their conjecture, and prove a slightly weaker version. Additionally, applying a result of the first author and Seymour \cite{grow} we give a short proof of Fouquet's result \cite{C5} on the structure of the subclass of bull-free graphs contained in $\mathcal{G}$.

description: Planetary-pinion gears are used in robotics, machine tool industry, precision medical devices and other fields of industry where a combination of accuracy and load capacity is required with small dimensions of the gearboxes. In planetary gear drives these properties are due to multi-pair gearing which leads to a large degree of static uncertainty and, as a result, difficulties in calculations. The presence of a plastic satellite expands the list of possible transmission failures; if the mobility of the spars is limited we also consider the wear resistance a necessary performance criterion.

description: The adiabatic theorem addresses the dynamics of a target instantaneous eigenstate of a time-dependent Hamiltonian. We use a Feshbach P-Q partitioning technique to derive a closed one-component integro-differential equation. The resultant equation properly traces the footprint of the target eigenstate. The physical significance of the derived dynamical equation is illustrated by both general analysis and concrete examples. Surprisingly, we find an anomalous phenomenon showing that a dephasing white noise can enhance and even induce adiabaticity. This new phenomenon may naturally occur in many physical systems. We also show that white noises can also shorten the total duration of dynamic processes such as adiabatic quantum computing.

description: The Perturbative Approach (PA) introduced by \citet{alard07} provides analytic solutions for gravitational arcs by solving the lens equation linearized around the Einstein ring solution. This is a powerful method for lens inversion and simulations in that it can be used, in principle, for generic lens models. In this paper we aim to quantify the domain of validity of this method for three quantities derived from the linearized mapping: caustics, critical curves, and the deformation cross section (i.e. the arc cross section in the infinitesimal circular source approximation). We consider lens models with elliptical potentials, in particular the Singular Isothermal Elliptic Potential and Pseudo-Elliptical Navarro--Frenk--White models. We show that the PA is exact for this first model. For the second, we obtain constraints on the model parameter space (given by the potential ellipticity parameter $\varepsilon$ and characteristic convergence $κ_s$) such that the PA is accurate for the aforementioned quantities. In this process we obtain analytic expressions for several lensing functions, which are valid for the PA in general. The determination of this domain of validity could have significant implications for the use of the PA, but it still needs to be probed with extended sources.

description: This diploma thesis investigates the production of ceramics and glass-ceramics from industrial wastes, namely from a fayalitic slag derived from a plasma furnace and laterite leaching residues; laterite leaching was carried out at atmospheric conditions with the use of sulphuric acid. Ceramics and glass-ceramics were produced after compaction of dry powder and roasting at temperatures 900, 1000, 1100, 1200 °C and 700, 800, 850, 900 °C respectively. The raw materials and all products were analyzed chemically and mineralogically using XRF, XRD and FT-IR techniques. Properties such as porosity, density, water adsorption, compressive and tensile strength, microhardness and coefficient of thermal expansion. Also, their toxicity and structural integrity were assess through firing, freeze-thaw cycles and immersion in corrosive media. The results are promising and thus the produced products can be used in a number of applications.
title: The Criminalization of homelessness
Creators: name: Prather, Sarah McKenzie
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2010

description: The current study is an analysis of the problem of homelessness in American society today. It focuses on the demographic characteristics of the homeless in addition to some of the contributing factors that explain homelessness. Of particular concern is how the criminal justice system responds to homelessness, including the criminalization and stigmatization of homeless individuals and the implications of such a response. The data used in this study come from a recent survey conducted in a jail setting in a northwest city. The present study compares those who have been homeless at one time or another and those who have never been homeless. More specifically, this study explores the relationship between homelessness, incarceration, prior criminal history, employment and other important factors that may increase the likelihood receiving a jail sentence and the severity of that sentence.

description: We present infrared transmission spectroscopy study of the inter-Landau-level excitations in quasi-neutral epitaxial graphene nanoribbon arrays. We observed a substantial deviation in energy of the $L_{0(-1)}$$\to$$L_{1(0)}$ transition from the characteristic square root magnetic-field dependence of two-dimensional graphene. This deviation arises from the formation of upper-hybrid mode between the Landau level transition and the plasmon resonance. In the quantum regime the hybrid mode exhibits a distinct dispersion relation, markedly different from that expected for conventional two-dimensional systems and highly doped graphene.

description: Diminishing Canada's commitment to research excellence would have a deleterious effect and precipitate its decline. It is therefore essential to guarantee that at least the current levels of funding are maintained. Since we cannot hope to obtain gold medals in every discipline, it is also important to identify a small number of S&T fields where Canada has a competitive advantage and to strengthen our position in these areas. A hard, realistic and learned examination of our place in world S&T is the only basis on which to define targets that can realistically be reached and a comprehensive strategy that will ensure that Canada does not become a marginal power in S&T.
title: Assessing the effect of simulation models on systems learning in an introductory environmental science course

description: While there is plenty of anecdotal evidence within the systems dynamics community supporting the use of systems simulations in the classroom to improve student understanding, there is little published, controlled, experimental research. This paper describes the results of a paired experiment testing the effect of using system dynamics simulations to increase systems understanding in an introductory environmental science course. We believed that the students using the systems simulations would demonstrate a greater systemic understanding of environmental issues than those who did not.
We conducted an experiment during the fall semester of 2009, with 304 students enrolled in four sections of Introduction to Environmental Science. Students in the experimental group used systems simulations to complete two homework assignments: one on population dynamics and one on carbon accumulation in the atmosphere. Students in the control group completed the same assignments, using parallel text descriptions, instead of simulations. We measured general and systemic understanding of environmental issues at the beginning of the course, at the end of the course, and at multiple points throughout the course. Regression analyses results show that there was a significant positive relationship between performance on assessment questions immediately following the first intervention and simulation use. Experimental group students were better able to recognize interconnections, identify stocks and flows and understand how accumulation occurs within the systems they studied. The study led to some questions about the effectiveness of using multiple-choice questions and behavior over time graphs to assess systemic understanding. The study also demonstrated the effectiveness of using methods, besides simulation, in the classroom to increase systemic understanding.
title: An Analysis of restaurant food safety violations: human factors, non-human factors, and food-borne illness
Creators: name: Choung, Jai

description: An estimated 76 million food-borne illnesses occur in the United States each year, causing 325,000 hospitalizations and 5,000 deaths, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Food safety is an increasingly important topic to governmental food regulators, not only in trying to reduce the number of illnesses from contaminated food. Governmental regulators also are becoming aware of the vulnerability of the food supply chain as a target for bioterrorism. Recommendations have been developed to protect the U. S. food supply from terrorism, but little of the research and recommendations relate to the food-service level.
Eighty percent of reported cases of food-borne disease occur in food-service establishments. The results of health inspections over six months in the Las Vegas, NV, area were analyzed to determine whether violations were due to human or non-human factors. Human factors were defined as cross-contamination, time and temperature abuse, and poor personal hygiene. The non-human factors were environmental violations, such as poor maintenance and lack of facilities. The human factors can be improved by developing proper training systems and monitoring food safety practices by supervisors.
The data show that human factors were responsible for 62.8% of violations cited by health inspectors. Upon reinspection, 97.4% of food-service establishments that had received a grade of less than A had corrected the violations and received an A grade. This shows that effective education can dramatically improve violations due to human factors. This establishes a significant foundation to establish proper food safety training systems to prevent food-borne illnesses in the food-service industry.

description: We introduce several useful utilities in development for the creation and analysis of real wildland fire simulations using WRF and SFIRE. These utilities exist as standalone programs and scripts as well as extensions to other well known software. Python web scrapers automate the process of downloading and preprocessing atmospheric and surface data from common sources. Other scripts simplify the domain setup by creating parameter files automatically. Integration with Google Earth allows users to explore the simulation in a 3D environment along with real surface imagery. Postprocessing scripts provide the user with a number of output data formats compatible with many commonly used visualization suites allowing for the creation of high quality 3D renderings. As a whole, these improvements build toward a unified web application that brings a sophisticated wildland fire modeling environment to scientists and users alike.

description: We study theoretically interaction between electrons in a quantum ring embedded in a microcavity and vacuum fluctuations of electromagnetic field in the cavity. It is shown that the vacuum fluctuations can split electron states of the ring with opposite angular momenta. As a consequence, the ground state of electron system in the quantum ring can be associated to nonzero electric current. Since a ground-state current flows without dissipation, such a quantum ring gets a magnetic moment and can be treated as an artificial spin.
