Do Repeat Yourself: Understanding Sufficient Conditions for Restricted Chase Non-Termination

Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Logic in Computer Science (cs.LO)

description: The disjunctive restricted chase is a sound and complete procedure for solving boolean conjunctive query entailment over knowledge bases of disjunctive existential rules. Alas, this procedure does not always terminate and checking if it does is undecidable. However, we can use acyclicity notions (sufficient conditions that imply termination) to effectively apply the chase in many real-world cases. To know if these conditions are as general as possible, we can use cyclicity notions (sufficient conditions that imply non-termination). In this paper, we discuss some issues with previously existing cyclicity notions, propose some novel notions for non-termination by dismantling the original idea, and empirically verify the generality of the new criteria.

New scenario of turbulence theory and wall-bounded turbulence: Theoretical significance
Creators: name: Kambe, Tsutomu
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: General scenario of turbulence theory is proposed and applied to streaky wall-bounded turbulence. This scenario introduces a new field of transverse waves. Significance of the theory rests on a mathematical theorem associated with the conservation law of current flux, expressed in a form of 4d physical space-time representation, which predicts a system of Maxwell-type equation and supports transverse waves traveling with a phase speed c_t. In regard to the streaky wall flows, there exist both dynamical mechanism and energy channel which excite transverse waves and exchange energy between flow field and wave field. Energy is supplied from the flow field to the wave field if wavelengths are sufficiently large. The waves are accompanied with a new mechanism of energy dissipation, an internal friction analogous to the Ohm's effect. Some part of the energy is dissipated into heat. Thus, there exists a sustaining mechanism, which implies that the streaky structure of wall-bounded turbulence is a dissipative structure. The predictions are consistent with experimental observations of wall turbulence: (i) Existence of traveling waves: The waves are characterized by two scales of wavelength and a damping-length d. (ii) Existence of two large scales (LSM and VLSM) observed in turbulent shear flows: Those are interpreted by the waves amplified with the transient growth mechanism and maintained by interaction with the new transverse wave field. The waves are robust since they have their own energy and momentum. (iii) Enhanced energy dissipation in wavy turbulence. Its bulk rate of energy dissipation takes a form resembling the models of eddy-viscosity, and its coefficient ν_D is estimated to be of the order of c_t d and much larger than the molecular viscosity. No self-contradiction is incurred by the new field introduced.
description: New preprint paper of 50 pages with one figure. In this version, particular emphases are given to the robustness of wave modes in the turbulent environment, the transient growth mechanism in shear flow turbulence, and enhanced dissipation due to drift current analogous to the Ohm's law (turbulence-Darcy effect). In this version, the scenario is applied to the streaky channel turbulence

description: We present an analysis of the relationship between the CO-H$_{2}$ conversion factor ($α_{\rm CO}$) and total mass surface density ($Σ_{\rm tot}$) in star-forming galaxies at $z < 1.5$. Our sample, which is drawn from the IRAM Plateau de Bure HIgh-$z$ Blue Sequence Survey (PHIBSS) and the CO Legacy Database for GASS (COLD GASS), includes 'normal,' massive star-forming galaxies that dominate the evolution of the cosmic star formation rate (SFR) at this epoch and probe the $Σ_{\rm tot}$ regime where the strongest variation in $α_{\rm CO}$ is observed. We constrain $α_{\rm CO}$ via existing CO observations, measurements of the star formation rate, and an assumed molecular gas depletion time ($t_{\rm dep}$=$M_{\rm gas}$/SFR) --- the latter two of which establish the total molecular gas mass independent of the observed CO luminosity. For a broad range of adopted depletion times, we find that $α_{\rm CO}$ is independent of total mass surface density, with little deviation from the canonical Milky Way value. This runs contrary to a scenario in which $α_{\rm CO}$ decreases as surface density increases within the extended clouds of molecular gas that potentially fuel clumps of star formation in $z\sim1$ galaxies, similar to those observed in local ULIRGs. Instead, our results suggest that molecular gas, both at $z\sim0$ and $z\sim1$, is primarily in the form of self-gravitating molecular clouds. While CO observations suggest a factor of $\sim3$ reduction in the average molecular gas depletion time between $z \sim 0$ and $z\sim1$, we find that, for typical galaxies, the structure of molecular gas and the process of star formation at $z \sim 1$ is otherwise remarkably similar to that observed in local star-forming systems.

Green Sheep or Prudent Investors? The Effect of Pluralistic Ignorance on Investors’ ESG Decision-Making
Creators: name: Richards, William Christian David
Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Social and Behavioral Sciences
subject: Business

description: Asset pricing literature has broadly found mixed evidence regarding the investment performance of portfolios that consider environmental, social and governance (ESG) dimensions in their decision-making. However, many scholars find that ESG-integrated portfolios exhibit returns that conventional asset pricing models cannot fully explain. This study aims at exploring the relationship between ESG and investment performance further. First, the paper seeks to contribute to the mixed evidence by conducting its own investigation of abnormal returns, focusing specifically on ESG-integrated exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Second, it seeks to understand how the behavioural phenomenon of pluralistic ignorance affects retail investors' decision-making around ESG investing. The central hypothesis is that pluralistic ignorance could lead investors to conform to behaviour they privately disagree with - consistent with social norms theory - which ultimately influences their propensity to consider ESG dimensions when investing. This could potentially explain part of the abnormal returns seen with ESG-integrated portfolios. The study is done as part of the assessed dissertation for the MSc in Sustainability, Enterprise and the Environment and the University of Oxford. Please see the attached pre-analysis plan for more detail.

We find conditions so that there is a model structure for local algebras, so that localization preserves algebras, and so that localization lifts to the level of algebras. We include examples coming from the theory of colored operads, and applications to spaces, spectra, and chain complexes.

On lifting of biadjoints and lax algebras

description: By the biadjoint triangle theorem, given a pseudomonad $\mathcal{T} $ on a $2$-category $\mathfrak{B} $, if a right biadjoint $\mathfrak{A}\to\mathfrak{B} $ has a lifting to the pseudoalgebras $\mathfrak{A}\to\mathsf{Ps}\textrm{-}\mathcal{T}\textrm{-}\mathsf{Alg} $ then this lifting is also right biadjoint provided that $\mathfrak{A} $ has codescent objects. In this paper, we give general results on lifting of biadjoints. As a consequence, we get a \textit{biadjoint triangle theorem} which, in particular, allows us to study triangles involving the $2$-category of lax algebras, proving analogues of the result described above. More precisely, we prove that, denoting by $\ell :\mathsf{Lax}\textrm{-}\mathcal{T}\textrm{-}\mathsf{Alg} \to\mathsf{Lax}\textrm{-}\mathcal{T}\textrm{-}\mathsf{Alg}_\ell $ the inclusion, if $R: \mathfrak{A}\to\mathfrak{B} $ is right biadjoint and has a lifting $J: \mathfrak{A} \to \mathsf{Lax}\textrm{-}\mathcal{T}\textrm{-}\mathsf{Alg} $, then $\ell\circ J$ is right biadjoint as well provided that $\mathfrak{A} $ has some needed weighted bicolimits. In order to prove such theorem, we study the descent objects and the lax descent objects. At the last section, we study direct consequences of our theorems in the context of the $2$-monadic approach to coherence. In particular, we give the construction of the left $2$-adjoint to the inclusion of the strict algebras into the lax algebras.

description: We study URu$_{2-x}$Fe$_x$Si$_2$, in which two types of staggered phases compete at low temperature as the iron concentration $x$ is varied: the nonmagnetic "hidden order" (HO) phase below the critical concentration $x_c$, and unconventional antiferromagnetic (AF) phase above $x_c$. By using polarization resolved Raman spectroscopy, we detect a collective mode of pseudovector-like $A_{2g}$ symmetry whose energy continuously evolves with increasing $x$; it monotonically decreases in the HO phase until it vanishes at $x=x_c$, and then reappears with increasing energy in the AF phase. The mode's evolution provides direct evidence for unified order parameter for both nonmagnetic and magnetic phases arising from the orbital degrees-of-freedom of the uranium-5$f$ electrons.

description: Peristrophe bivalvis (L.) Merr. (Acanthaceae) is a Vietnamese herb that is rich in anthocyanin, a natural colorant. However, the common extraction methods for this pigment often accompany with the presence of contaminated compounds. This study, therefore, focused on applying the aqueous two-phase system (ATPS), a green method for extracting and purifying anthocyanin in the leaf extract. The obtained results revealed that an ATPS composing from ethanol and ammonium sulfate with the concentrations of 32.5% and 25%, respectively, can recover 80% anthocyanin in leaf while eliminating 80% contaminated nitrogen compounds. Besides, the shelf-life of pigment in the purified extract was also elongated significantly in comparison with that in the crude extract.

description: This paper presents a Transformer-based image compression system that allows for a variable image quality objective according to the user's preference. Optimizing a learned codec for different quality objectives leads to reconstructed images with varying visual characteristics. Our method provides the user with the flexibility to choose a trade-off between two image quality objectives using a single, shared model. Motivated by the success of prompt-tuning techniques, we introduce prompt tokens to condition our Transformer-based autoencoder. These prompt tokens are generated adaptively based on the user's preference and input image through learning a prompt generation network. Extensive experiments on commonly used quality metrics demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in adapting the encoding and/or decoding processes to a variable quality objective. While offering the additional flexibility, our proposed method performs comparably to the single-objective methods in terms of rate-distortion performance.

description: Pairwise comparisons between alternatives are a well-known method for measuring preferences of a decision-maker. Since these often do not exhibit consistency, a number of inconsistency indices has been introduced in order to measure the deviation from this ideal case. We axiomatically characterize the inconsistency ranking induced by the Koczkodaj inconsistency index: six independent properties are presented such that they determine a unique linear order on the set of all pairwise comparison matrices.

description: Ferroelectric relaxors are complex materials with distinct properties. The understanding of their dielectric susceptibility, which strongly depends on both temperature and probing frequency, have interested researchers for many years. Here we report a macroscopic and phenomenological approach based on statistical modeling to investigate and better understand how the dielectric response of a relaxor depends on temperature. Employing the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution and considering temperature dependent dipolar orientational polarizability, we propose a minimum statistical model and specific equations to understand and fit numerical and experimental dielectric responses versus temperature. We show that the proposed formula can successfully fit the dielectric response of typical relaxors, including Ba(Zr,Ti)O$_{3}$, Pb(Zn$_{1/3}$Nb$_{2/3}$)$_{0.87}$Ti$_{0.13}$O$_{3}$, and Pb(Mg$_{1/3}$Nb$_{2/3}$)O$_{3}$-0.05Pb(Zr$_{0.53}$Ti$_{0.47}$)O$_{3}$, which demonstrates the general applicability of this approach.

description: We develop a device-independent framework for testing quantum channels. That is, we falsify a hypothesis about a quantum channel based only on an observed set of input-output correlations. Formally, the problem consists of characterizing the set of input-output correlations compatible with any arbitrary given quantum channel. For binary (i.e., two input symbols, two output symbols) correlations, we show that extremal correlations are always achieved by orthogonal encodings and measurements, irrespective of whether or not the channel preserves commutativity. We further provide a full, closed-form characterization of the sets of binary correlations in the case of: i) any dihedrally-covariant qubit channel (such as any Pauli and amplitude-damping channels), and ii) any universally-covariant commutativity-preserving channel in an arbitrary dimension (such as any erasure, depolarizing, universal cloning, and universal transposition channels).

description: We study the ground-state properties and excitation spectrum of the Lieb-Liniger model, i.e. the one-dimensional Bose gas with repulsive contact interactions. We solve the Bethe-Ansatz equations in the thermodynamic limit by using an analytic method based on a series expansion on orthogonal polynomials developed in \cite{Ristivojevic} and push the expansion to an unprecedented order. By a careful analysis of the mathematical structure of the series expansion, we make a conjecture for the analytic exact result at zero temperature and show that the partially resummed expressions thereby obtained compete with accurate numerical calculations. This allows us to evaluate the density of quasi-momenta, the ground-state energy, the local two-body correlation function and Tan's contact. Then, we study the two branches of the excitation spectrum. Using a general analysis of their properties and symmetries, we obtain novel analytical expressions at arbitrary interaction strength which are found to be extremely accurate in a wide range of intermediate to strong interactions.

description: Mass measurement of a particle whose decay products including invisible particles is a challenging task at colliders. For a new physics model involving a dark matter candidate $N$ and a $Z_2$ symmetry that stabilizes it, a typical new process at $e^+e^-$ colliders is the pair production $e^+e^- \to Y\bar{Y}$ followed by decay processes $Y\to aN$ and $\bar{Y}\to b\bar{N}$, where $a$ and $b$ are visible but $N$ is invisible. In this work, we propose a new method to measure the physical masses in this topology by making use of the kinematic equations given by momentum-energy conservation and on-shell conditions. For each event, the solvability of these equations determines a limited region on the trial $m_Y$-$m_N$ plane. The edge of this region can be used to define two variables, $m_Y^\mathrm{edge}$ and $m_N^\mathrm{edge}$, whose distributions are utilized to derive the measurement values of $m_Y$ and $m_N$. The measurement deviations and uncertainties are also estimated after including detector effects and background contamination.

description: In the presence of a magnetic field frustrated spin systems may exhibit plateaus at fractional values of saturation magnetization. Such plateau states are stabilized by classical and quantum mechanisms including order-by-disorder, triplon crystallization, and various competing order effects. In the case of electrically conducting systems, free electrons represent an incisive probe for the plateau states. Here we study the electrical transport of Ising-type rare earth tetraborides $R$B$_4$ ($R=$Er, Tm), a metallic Shastry-Sutherland lattice showing magnetization plateaus. We find that the longitudinal and transverse resistivities reflect scattering with both the static and dynamic plateau structure. We model these results consistently with the expected strong uniaxial anisotropy in a quantitative level, providing a framework for the study of plateau states in metallic frustrated systems.

description: We create low-entropy states of neutral atoms by utilizing a conceptually new optical-lattice technique that relies on a high-precision, high-bandwidth synthesis of light polarization. Polarization-synthesized optical lattices provide two fully controllable optical lattice potentials, each of them confining only atoms in either one of the two long-lived hyperfine states. By employing one lattice as the storage register and the other one as the shift register, we provide a proof of concept using four atoms that selected regions of the periodic potential can be filled with one particle per site. We expect that our results can be scaled up to thousands of atoms by employing a atom-sorting algorithm with logarithmic complexity, which is enabled by polarization-synthesized optical lattices. Vibrational entropy is subsequently removed by sideband cooling methods. Our results pave the way for a bottom-up approach to creating ultralow-entropy states of a many-body system.

description: Renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBOs) are needed to decarbonize hard-to-electrify sectors that rely on liquid or gaseous fuels, such as long-haul shipping. The EU's Delegated Act on RFNBOs defines renewable hydrogen by considering rules on additionality as well as temporal and geographical correlation of the electricity used. For a Danish case study, we examine the impact on the capacity expansion problem of an energy hub producing renewable hydrogen, e-methanol, and e-ammonia using a mixed-integer linear problem formulation. We analyze the investments in production capacity, storage assets, and Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) volume under different fuel price assumptions for 2030. We find that e-methanol (combined with limited storage to secure hydrogen supply to the synthesizer) provides the best business case with a PPA volume based on the maximum allowed electrolyzer size.

Cosmic backreaction and Gauss's law

description: Cosmic backreaction refers to the general question of whether a homogeneous and isotropic cosmological model is able to predict the correct expansion dynamics of our inhomogeneous Universe. One aspect of this issue concerns the validity of the continuous approximation: does a system of point masses expand the same way as a fluid does? This article shows that it is not exactly the case in Newtonian gravity, although the associated corrections vanish in an infinite Universe. It turns out that Gauss's law is a key ingredient for such corrections to vanish. Backreaction, therefore, generically arises in alternative theories of gravitation, which threatens the trustworthiness of their cosmological tests. This phenomenon is illustrated with a toy model of massive gravity.

Note on non-vacuum conformal family contributions to Rényi entropy in two-dimensional CFT
Creators: name: Zhang, Jia-ju

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We calculate the contributions of a general non-vacuum conformal family to Rényi entropy in two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT). The primary operator of the conformal family can be either non-chiral or chiral, and we denote its scaling dimension by $Δ$. For the case of two short intervals on complex plane, we expand the Rényi mutual information by the cross ratio $x$ to order $x^{2Δ+2}$. For the case of one interval on torus with the temperature being low, we expand the Rényi entropy by $q=\exp(-2πβ/L)$, with $β$ being the inverse temperature and $L$ being the spatial period, to order $q^{Δ+2}$. To make the result meaningful, we require that the scaling dimension $Δ$ cannot be too small. For two intervals on complex plane we need $Δ>1$, and for one interval on torus we need $Δ>2$. We work in small Newton constant limit in gravity side and so large central charge limit in CFT side, and find matches of gravity and CFT results.

description: It is well known that some black holes can act as accelerators for particles without spin. Recently, there are some works considering collision of two spinning particles in the background of Schwarzschild and Kerr black holes and it was shown that {the center-of-mass energy of the test particles is related to the spin}. In this paper we extend the results to some more general cases. We consider Kerr-Newman black holes as accelerators for spinning particles. We derive the center-of-mass energy of the spinning particles and use numerical method to investigate how the center-of-mass energy is affected by the properties of the black holes and spinning particles.

description: The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the “de jure” and “de facto” standard modeling language for software systems. It has been updated regularly since its inception, is being taught in universities all over the world and has been used extensively as a basis for Model-Driven Development (MDD) research initiatives. This talk will provide a survey of the “UML World” and how it has been used. The pros and cons of UML in the context of model-driven development will be discussed, with a focus on the comparison with domain specific languages (DSLs) and its role on specifying transformations. Model-driven generative approaches for software development, nowadays dubbed as “low code" or "no code" and some ot its portuguese success histories, will be overviewed. The speaker will also share some of his experience in bridging the gap between research and teaching graduate and undergraduate students in UML-based MDD topics.
