description: The so-called quantum Zeno effect is essentially a consequence of the projection postulate for ideal measurements. To test the effect Itano et al. have performed an experiment on an ensemble of atoms where rapidly repeated level measurements were realized by means of short laser pulses. Using dynamical considerations we give an explanation why the projection postulate can be applied in good approximation to such measurements. Corrections to ideal measurements are determined explicitly. This is used to discuss in how far the experiment of Itano et al. can be considered as a test of the quantum Zeno effect. We also analyze a new possible experiment on a single atom where stochastic light and dark periods can be interpreted as manifestation of the quantum Zeno effect. We show that the measurement point of view gives a quick and intuitive understanding of experiments of the above type, although a finer analysis has to take the corrections into account.

description: In order to explore the differences of projects on linking newly-added cropland quotas with the amount of land used for construction in targeted poverty alleviation in different rural areas, this paper selects the social, economic, cultural and ecological evaluation indexes, and introduces the AHP method, to measure the benefits before and after the implementation of the four typical projects on linking newly-added cropland quotas with the amount of land used for construction in Xinjiang. The results show that after the implementation of the project, the social, economic, cultural, ecological and comprehensive benefits of each region have been improved, but the benefits of regions with different economic levels are significantly different. This paper holds that the projects on linking newly-added cropland quotas with the amount of land used for construction in different regions should be considered from the ultimate goal before the establishment and implementation of the project, so as to realize the win-win situation between the urban-rural requisition-compensation balance and the targeted poverty alleviation in rural areas.
Matrix Convex Sets Without Absolute Extreme Points

description: This article shows the existence of a class of closed bounded matrix convex sets which do not have absolute extreme points. The sets we consider are noncommutative sets, $K_X$, formed by taking matrix convex combinations of a single tuple $X$. In the case that $X$ is a tuple of compact operators with no nontrivial finite dimensional reducing subspaces, $K_X$ is a closed bounded matrix convex set with no absolute extreme points. A central goal in the theory of matrix convexity is to find a natural notion of an extreme point in the dimension free setting which is minimal with respect to spanning. Matrix extreme points are the strongest type of extreme point known to span matrix convex sets; however, they are not necessarily the smallest set which does so. Absolute extreme points, a more restricted type of extreme points that are closely related to Arveson's boundary, enjoy a strong notion of minimality should they span. This result shows that matrix convex sets may fail to be spanned by their absolute extreme points.

A quantum Monte Carlo based density functional for Dysprosium dipolar system

description: We present a quantum Monte Carlo based density functional to describe droplet formation and supersolidity in dipolar systems. The usual Lee-Huang-Yang term, accounting for quantum correlations in the conventional extended Gross-Pitaievskii equation (eGPE), has been substituted by the correlation energy evaluated with Quantum Monte Carlo. We demonstrate the ability of the new functional to reproduce existing experimental data for the minimum critical number of atoms $N_\mathrm{c}$ required for droplet formation. $N_\mathrm{c}$ is a challenging quantity for theoretical predictions, and the eGPE provides only a qualitative description of it, mainly when it is applied to Dysprosium. We also use the new approach to characterize the BEC-supersolid transition. The quantum Monte Carlo based functional can be easily implemented in any existing eGPE code, improving the description of dipolar systems without increasing the computational cost.

Subjects: Wildfires -- Management

description: Wildfire poses a growing risk to human settlements in the United States, and especially in the West. Adding to the difficulty of reducing such risk is the push to re-integrate wildfire as a natural ecosystem process; its long exclusion from U.S. ecosystems is one factor contributing to increased fire severity. This dissertation addresses a number of components related to the human dimensions of wildfire management in the U.S. West, including: (1) The development of alternatives to evacuation among fire-prone populations; (2) The impact of social diversity on community ability to adapt to wildfire risk and/or implement policies related to its management; and (3) The influence of the news media on public understanding and acceptance of wildfire or associated risks. Each of these foci reflect the growing recognition that private citizens need to take personal responsibility for their fire risk and collaborate with wildfire professionals from local and federal agencies. I define and outline the need for alternatives to evacuation as a means to protect human safety and property during wildfire. Analysis of newspaper coverage is used to illustrate how the media reflect and contribute to continued notions of fire exclusion and government protection from wildfire risk. Recommendations to advance the use of alternatives to evacuation are developed by drawing from fire and other hazard literatures. Case studies of communities implementing alternatives to evacuation are used to develop theory concerning how and under what conditions they might be applicable. I use Structuration theory to discuss strategies for overcoming barriers to adoption of alternatives, including existing U.S. notions of fire management and the organizational structure of wildfire agencies. Central to this understanding is the recognition that social diversity among geographically disperse communities at risk for fire needs better understanding at a conceptual level. I draw from social and community theory to provide a model for understanding this diversity and its affect on adaptability to wildfire management in an effort to prompt a more systematic method for allocating resources (education, planning, money) to reduce wildfire risk and manage it effectively.

description: While much is known about the behavior of many groups of squamate reptiles, including several medium to large bodied snakes (e.g. natricines and viperids), we know very little about many small, cryptic species of snakes. Because of this bias in our current knowledge of the behavior of snakes my dissertation is focused on the chemosensory and behavioral ecology of three species of small-bodied and cryptic snakes, the Sharp-tailed Snake (Contia tenuis), Ring-necked Snake (Diadophis punctatus), and the Desert Nightsnake (Hypsiglena chlorophaea). My dissertation had three main objectives: 1) To examine the effects of shelter-site and prey odor availability on behavior, 2) To test for prey chemical discrimination among these species, 3) to examine abitoic factors that influence activity patterns. Chapter 1 focused on the effects of shelter availability and prey odor on H. chlorophaea. Individual nightsnakes made nocturnal movements and chose shelters in combination with lizard odor, and avoided mouse odor. Chapter 2 described the effects of three moonlight intensities: 1) a new moon, 2) half-moon, and 3) a full moon on the activity patterns of H. chlorophaea. These data show a full moon to have a statistically significant effect on the movement patterns of H. chlorophaea. In Chapter 3, I show that H. chlorophaea is able to discriminate between two size classes of potential prey. Individuals has a lower latency (time to first tongue flick) and showed a greater mean rate of tongue flick towards a small sized (and ingestible) prey item over a larger, uningestible prey item. Chapter 4 shows that H. chlorophaea of two size classes (adults and juveniles) do not prefer invertebrate prey, an often repeated statement in both peer-reviewed papers and regional field guides. In Chapter 5, I show that Contia tenuis shows a preference for slugs as prey, reaffirming previous, yet unsubstantiated claims by several authors. Chapter 6, shows that shelter and prey odor has an effect on behavior, in the case on a diurnal species, Diadophis punctatus. Similar to H. chlorophaea, individual D. punctatus chose shelters in proximity to a suitable prey odor, in this case a snake, and avoided mouse odors.

description: Background: Individuals experiencing disadvantage or marginalisation often face difficulty accessing primary health care. Overcoming access barriers is important for improving the health of these populations. Brokers can empower and enable people to access resources; however, their role in increasing access to health services has not been well-defined or researched in the literature. This review aims to identify whether a health service broker working with health and social service providers in the community can (a) identify individuals experiencing vulnerability who may benefit from improved access to quality primary care, and (b) link these individuals with an appropriate primary care provider for enduring, appropriate primary care. Methods: Six databases were searched for studies published between January 2008 and August 2015 that evaluated a health service broker intervention linking adults experiencing vulnerability to primary care. Relevant websites were also searched. Included studies were analysed using candidacy theory and a realist matrix was developed to identify mechanisms that may have contributed to changes in response to the interventions in different contexts. Results: Eleven studies were included in the review. Of the eight studies judged to provide detailed description of the programs, the interventions predominately addressed two domains of candidacy (identification of candidacy and navigation), with limited applicability to the third and fourth dimensions (permeability of services and appearances at health services). Six of the eight studies were judged to have successfully linked their target group to primary care. The majority of the interventions focused on assisting patients to reach services and did not look at ways that providers or health services could alter the way they deliver care to improve access. Conclusions: While specific mechanisms behind the interventions could not be identified, it is suggested that individual advocacy may be a key element in the success of these types of interventions. The interventions were found to address some dimensions of candidacy, with health service brokers able to help people to identify their need for care and to access, navigate and interact with services. More consideration should be given to the influence of providers on patient candidacy, rather than placing the onus on patients.

description: We review the numerical analysis' understanding of Krylov subspace methods for solving (non-hermitian) systems of equations and discuss its implications for lattice gauge theory computations using the example of the Wilson fermion matrix. Our thesis is that mature methods like QMR, BiCGStab or restarted GMRES are close to optimal for the Wilson fermion matrix. Consequently, preconditioning appears to be the crucial issue for further improvements.

description: Tucker decomposition is a powerful tensor model to handle multi-aspect data. It demonstrates the low-rank property by decomposing the grid-structured data as interactions between a core tensor and a set of object representations (factors). A fundamental assumption of such decomposition is that there are finite objects in each aspect or mode, corresponding to discrete indexes of data entries. However, real-world data is often not naturally posed in this setting. For example, geographic data is represented as continuous indexes of latitude and longitude coordinates, and cannot fit tensor models directly. To generalize Tucker decomposition to such scenarios, we propose Functional Bayesian Tucker Decomposition (FunBaT). We treat the continuous-indexed data as the interaction between the Tucker core and a group of latent functions. We use Gaussian processes (GP) as functional priors to model the latent functions. Then, we convert each GP into a state-space prior by constructing an equivalent stochastic differential equation (SDE) to reduce computational cost. An efficient inference algorithm is developed for scalable posterior approximation based on advanced message-passing techniques. The advantage of our method is shown in both synthetic data and several real-world applications. We release the code of FunBaT at \url{https://github.com/xuangu-fang/Functional-Bayesian-Tucker-Decomposition}.

description: Threatened and endangered species are the hallmark of the biodiversity crisis of our times. The listing of species by governments prompts research and management to prevent further declines and to conserve and restore populations at sustainable levels. The shrub-steppe of eastern Washington hosts two species at risk, the Columbia Basin pygmy rabbit (Brachylagus idahoensis) and the Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). Conservation and restoration requires tools to assess risk of population decline or extinction for species and to strengthen restoration plans that must integrate many forms of knowledge from science to expert opinion to local ecological knowledge. Computer models are powerful tools for these purposes. Software for population viability analysis has been specifically developed to make risk assessments. Other computer modeling programs such as system dynamics are adaptable to the task of integrating knowledge, simulating systems and providing a method for testing and supporting management decisions. As well, many general statistical methods and models can be used to analyze raw data on species and systems of concern. The Columbia Basin pygmy rabbit exists only in a captive breeding program, which was unable to produce sufficient numbers of rabbits to support a reintroduction effort in 2007 and 2008. Population viability analysis was used to determine where the demographic bottleneck exists in the population and to explore where research efforts should be concentrated. It also defined a risk of extinction to the population if harvest for reintroduction was continuous over the several years most likely required to restore rabbits to the wild. Correlation and regression tree modeling was used to compare the survival of an experimental pygmy rabbit reintroduction that occurred in 2004 with the first actual release of captive reared animals back into a portion of their historical range. Population viability analysis was also performed for a remnant population of sage-grouse in eastern Washington. It was coupled with a system dynamics model that incorporated the land use complex and habitat suitability of remaining sage-grouse habitat in Washington. The system dynamics model was a participatory modeling exercise with a local conservation district designed to provide them with a land use planning and wildlife management tool.
A study of two school districts' practices in providing professional development for principals

Subjects: School management and organization

description: This study sought to understand how district office administration supports principal professional development. Principal leadership matters in improving student achievement, but the responsibility for a principals' achievement also rests with district leadership. A case study, interview-based methodology with data collected from written materials, professional plans, and programs were used to explore the actions of two school district offices as they provided professional development to their principals. Major findings in this study were that the professional development activities that district administration provided aligned to best practices identified in the literature, including the Interstate School Leadership Licensure Consortium standards. The commonalities of the professional development for principals include setting a widely shared vision for learning, providing a professional culture and collaborative relationships, providing feedback on performance with formal and informal assessment, and focusing on aligned curriculum and teaching strategies. The practices of district-level administration in providing professional development for principals were similar in both districts and included book studies, meetings, and an induction mentorship program. The findings indicate that district-level administration emphasized the need to provide professional development that engages principals in job-embedded activities focused on teaching and learning, which are aligned with the district improvement needs. District administration did not spend the same effort in providing professional development that focused on principal leadership skills.

description: This paper summarizes some known results about Appell polynomials and investigates their various analogs. The primary of these are the free Appell polynomials. In the multivariate case, they can be considered as natural analogs of the Appell polynomials among polynomials in non-commuting variables. They also fit well into the framework of free probability. For the free Appell polynomials, a number of combinatorial and "diagram" formulas are proven, such as the formulas for their linearization coefficients. An explicit formula for their generating function is obtained. These polynomials are also martingales for free Levy processes. For more general free Sheffer families, a necessary condition for pseudo-orthogonality is given. Another family investigated are the Kailath-Segall polynomials. These are multivariate polynomials, which share with the Appell polynomials nice combinatorial properties, but are always orthogonal. Their origins lie in the Fock space representations, or in the theory of multiple stochastic integrals. Diagram formulas are proven for these polynomials as well, even in the q-deformed case.

description: Automatic recognition of historical handwritten manuscripts is a daunting task due to paper degradation over time. Recognition-free retrieval or word spotting is popularly used for information retrieval and digitization of the historical handwritten documents. However, the performance of word spotting algorithms depends heavily on feature detection and representation methods. Although there exist popular feature descriptors such as Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) and Speeded Up Robust Features (SURF), the invariant properties of these descriptors amplify the noise in the degraded document images, rendering them more sensitive to noise and complex characteristics of historical manuscripts. Therefore, an efficient and relaxed feature descriptor is required as handwritten words across different documents are indeed similar, but not identical. This paper introduces a Radial Line Fourier (RLF) descriptor for handwritten word representation, with a short feature vector of 32 dimensions. A segmentation-free and training-free handwritten word spotting method is studied herein that relies on the proposed RLF descriptor, takes into account different keypoint representations and uses a simple preconditioner-based feature matching algorithm. The effectiveness of the RLF descriptor for segmentation-free handwritten word spotting is empirically evaluated on well-known historical handwritten datasets using standard evaluation measures.

description: Social capital is among the newest buzzwords in a variety of academic fields such as public health studies, urban planning, community development, criminal justice, political science, social psychology and sociology. Although social capital is often hailed as the solution to many of the societal problems present in America today, the literature reviewed in this dissertation indicates that this widely shared belief in the palliative effects of social capital may be somewhat misplaced, or at least partially mischaracterized. The literature also suggests, however, that the levels of social capital in a community affect the way members of the community interact with one another and may also impact the level of crime. To examine this connection, the research conducted in this dissertation utilizes a longitudinal case study comparison to examine levels crime in U.S. cities and metropolitan statistical areas over several years along with the levels of social capital that are present in these areas. The findings indicate that there is strong evidence of a correlation between social capital and crime; however it appears that a decrease in crime tends to precede increases in social capital rather than the other way around. This finding has important implications for public policy development and future research alike, and those implications are identified and discussed in the dissertation.

description: The symbolic dynamics technique is well-known for low-dimensional dynamical systems and chaotic maps, and lies at the roots of the thermodynamic formalism of dynamical systems. Here we show that this technique can also be successfully applied to time series generated by complex systems of much higher dimensionality. Our main example is the investigation of share price returns in a coarse-grained way. A nontrivial spectrum of Renyi entropies is found. We study how the spectrum depends on the time scale of returns, the sector of stocks considered, as well as the number of symbols used for the symbolic description. Overall our analysis confirms that in the symbol space transition probabilities of observed share price returns depend on the entire history of previous symbols, thus emphasizing the need for a modelling based on non-Markovian stochastic processes. Our method allows for quantitative comparisons of entirely different complex systems, for example the statistics of symbol sequences generated by share price returns using 4 symbols can be compared with that of genomic sequences.

description: Using EPS we present 13 refined Lick/IDS absorption-line indices for an extensive set of instantaneous-burst binary stellar populations (BSPs) at high resolution (0.3 Å) of various age and metallicity (1-15Gyr, 0.004-0.03), and 38 indices at intermediate resolution (3 Å). These indices are obtained by two methods: (1) obtain them by using the empirical fitting functions (FFs method); (2) measure them directly from the synthetic spectra (DC method). Together with our previous paper a database of Lick/IDS spectral absorption-line indices for BSPs at high and intermediate resolutions is provided. This set of indices includes 21 indices of Worthey et al., four Balmer indices defined by Worthey & Ottaviani and 13 indices with the new passband definitions of Trager et al. The full set of synthetic indices and the integrated pseudo-continuum are listed in the Appendix, which is only available online or from our website (http://www.ast9. com/), or on request from the first author. Moreover, the ISEDs can be obtained from our website. We compare the synthetic Lick/IDS indices obtained by FFs method and those by DC method, and find that the discrepancies are significant: Ca4455 (index 6), Fe4668 (8), Mg_b (13), Fe5709 (17), NaD (19), TiO_1 (20) and TiO_2 (21, except for Z=0.02) in the W94 system, Ca4455^T (6^T), C_2 4668^T (8^T), NaD^T (19^T), TiO_1^T (20^T) and TiO_2^T (21^T, except for Z=0.02) in the T98 system obtained by DC method are less (bluer) than the corresponding ones obtained by FFs method for all metallicities. Ca4227 (index 3), Fe5782 (18),Ca4227^T (3^T) and Fe5782^T (18^T) are greater at Z=0.03 and become to be bluer at Z=0.004, Fe5709^T (17^T) index is less at Z=0.03 and becomes to be redder at Z=0.004 than the corresponding ones obtained by FFs method.

description: The radiation mechanism of fast radio bursts (FRBs) has been extensively studied but still remains elusive. In the search for dark matter candidates, the QCD axion and axionlike particles (ALPs) have emerged as prominent possibilities. These elusive particles can aggregate into dense structures called axion stars through Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC). Such axion stars could constitute a significant portion of the mysterious dark matter in the universe. When these axion stars grow beyond a critical mass, usually through processes like accretion or merging, they undergo a self-driven collapse. Traditionally, for spherically symmetric axion clumps, the interaction between axions and photons does not lead to parametric resonance, especially when the QCD axion-photon coupling is at standard levels. Nevertheless, our study indicates that even QCD axion stars with typical coupling values can trigger stimulated decay during their collapse, rather than producing relativistic axions through self-interactions. This process results in short radio bursts, with durations of around 0.1 seconds, and can be potentially observed using radio telescopes like FAST or SKA. Furthermore, we find that collapsing axion stars for ALPs with specific parameters may emit radio bursts lasting just milliseconds with a peak luminosity of $1.60\times10^{42}\rm{erg/s}$, matching the characteristics of the observed non-repeating FRBs.

description: We study a field--theoretical analogue of the Aharonov--Bohm effect in the 3D Abelian Higgs Model: the corresponding topological interaction is proportional to the linking number of the vortex and the particle world trajectories. We show that the Aharonov--Bohm effect gives rise to a nontrivial interaction of tested charged particles.

description: Semiconductor-based superconducting qubits offer a versatile platform for studying hybrid quantum devices in circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED) architecture. Most of these cQED experiments utilize coplanar waveguides, where the incorporation of DC gate lines is straightforward. Here, we present a technique for probing gate-tunable hybrid devices using a three-dimensional (3D) microwave cavity. A recess is machined inside the cavity wall for the placement of devices and gate lines. We validate this design using a hybrid device based on an InAs-Al nanowire Josephson junction. The coupling between the device and the cavity is facilitated by a long superconducting strip, the antenna. The Josephson junction and the antenna together form a gatemon qubit. We further demonstrate the gate-tunable cavity shift and two-tone qubit spectroscopy. This technique could be used to probe various quantum devices and materials in a 3D cQED architecture that requires DC gate voltages.

Subjects: Clothing and dress -- Political aspects

description: What can clothes cover and shield? What do they announce and proclaim? The cloth is not alone in this communication; there are bodies attached. The interpretation becomes a collective process in public view, but this does not negate the very personal connection every body has with its own representation. Wounds of signification are often displayed simultaneously as a sense of empowerment and recognition of injustice; as a critique of policy and as a cry for change; as an individual display of beliefs and as a challenge to national boundaries. This project explores the power of clothed bodies and exposes the individual and national wounds through their processes of healing justice. What I am intrigued by is the process of selection, punishment for violations and subversion that occurs on the national stage as a result of local and individual acts. I am interested in the meanings behind the "look policies" as Abercrombie & Fitch likes to call them and how similar types of policies are implemented to (re)define national identity. Identifying the body as a potent example of visual culture (Fuery 53), I focus on clothing and the body and the ways in which the visual (perceived or actual) impacts and transforms notions of belonging over time. In analyzing multiple case studies from the 19th to the 21st century, the pattern of how the body negotiates its visual displacement reveals the space where visual culture, social (dis)order and public policy meet. With an emphasis on contemporary examples, this project examines the rhetoric used to protect the nation and identifies places of resistance which influence the future of social justice activism.

description: Until the final two decades of the twentieth century, American public education and its outcomes were not scrutinized as closely as is true in the twenty-first century. In the prior context school boards had greater local autonomy than now exists. With ratcheted interest and intervention in public education at both the federal and state government levels, and with increasing demands from the business community and various interest groups related to district, school, teacher, and student performance, the foundational concept of local control upon which the American school board was based has been fundamentally impacted. The purpose of this study was to describe the experiences and realities of current, sitting school board members in a modern context, and it targeted understanding the motivations and expectations that current school board members bring to the inception of their board service; their perceptions of the effects their service and leadership has on policy and practice in their local school districts; and an understanding of both the satisfactory aspects and frustrations of such service in light of contextual changes which have affected the scope and impact of historical school board roles and influence. Through a collective case study, data collected for the study consisted of individual interviews conducted with eleven current board members from eleven different school districts, all located within one of the State of Washington's nine Educational Service Districts. The participants in the study generously and honestly shared their experiences as elected school board members, and highlighted both possibilities and limitations associated with service on a contemporary school board. Tallerico (1991) asserts that as school governance becomes increasingly complex yet is still "locally controlled," local policy actors continue to warrant the attention of educators based on the premise that "who those individuals are, what they bring with them, and how they develop over time can be critical variables in local educational policymaking processes" (p.94). The study addresses these important factors of contemporary school board members.

description: The conversion of CO2 and CH4 into value-added chemicals is studied in a new geometry of a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) with multi-electrodes, dedicated to the treatment of high gas flow rates. Gas chromatography is used to define the CO2 and CH4 conversion as well as the yields of the products of decomposition (CO, O2 and H2) and of recombination (C2H4, C2H6 and CH2O). The influence of three parameters is investigated on the conversion: the CO2 and CH4 flow rates, the plasma power and the nature of the carrier gas (argon or helium). The energy efficiency of the CO2 conversion is estimated and compared with those of similar atmospheric plasma sources. Our DBD reactor shows a good compromise between a good energy efficiency and the treatment of a large CO2 flow rate.
