description: We prove that the spaces $\operatorname{tot}\big(Γ(Λ^\bullet A^\vee \otimes_R\mathcal{T}_{\operatorname{poly}}^{\bullet}\big)$ and $\operatorname{tot}\big(Γ(Λ^\bullet A^\vee)\otimes_R\mathcal{D}_{\operatorname{poly}}^{\bullet}\big)$ associated with a Lie pair $(L,A)$ each carry an $L_\infty$ algebra structure canonical up to an $L_\infty$ isomorphism with the identity map as linear part. These two spaces serve, respectively, as replacements for the spaces of formal polyvector fields and formal polydifferential operators on the Lie pair $(L,A)$. Consequently, both $\mathbb{H}^\bullet_{\operatorname{CE}}(A,\mathcal{T}_{\operatorname{poly}}^{\bullet})$ and $\mathbb{H}^\bullet_{\operatorname{CE}}(A,\mathcal{D}_{\operatorname{poly}}^{\bullet})$ admit unique Gerstenhaber algebra structures. Our approach is based on homotopy transfer and the construction of a Fedosov dg Lie algebroid (i.e. a dg foliation on a Fedosov dg manifold).

description: A low dispersion spectrograph-cum-imager has been developed and assembled in ARIES, Nainital. The optical design of the spectrograph consists of a collimator and a focal reducer converting the f/9 beam from the 3.6-m Devasthal optical telescope to a nearly f/4.3 beam. The instrument is capable of carrying out broad-band imaging, narrow-band imaging and low-resolution (λ/Δλ<2000) slit spectroscopy in the wavelength range 350-1050 nm. A closed-cycle cryogenically cooled charge-coupled device camera, also assembled in ARIES, is used as the main imaging device for the spectrograph. The first images from the spectrograph on the telescope assert seeing-limited performance free from any significant optical aberration. An i-band image of the galaxy cluster Abell 370 made using the spectrograph shows faint sources down to ~25 mag. The quality and sensitivity of the optical spectrums of the celestial sources obtained from the spectrograph are as per the expectations from a 3.6-m telescope. Several new modes of observations such as polarimetry, fast-imaging, and monitoring of the atmospheric parameters are being included in the spectrograph. Using a test setup, single optical pulses from the Crab pulsar were detected from the telescope. The spectrograph is one of the main back-end instruments on the 3.6-m telescope for high sensitivity observations of celestial objects.

An Analysis of Pedestrians' Behavior in Emergency Evacuation Using Cellular Automata Simulation

description: To minimize property loss and death count in terror attacks and other emergent scenarios, attention given to timely and effective evacuation cannot be enough. Due to limited evacuation resource, i.e., number of available exits, there exists interdependence among pedestrians such as cooperation, competition and herd effect. Thus human factors - more specifically, pedestrians' behavior in emergency evacuation - play a significant role in evacuation research. Effective evacuation can only be reached when route planning are considered in conjunction with psychological dynamics, which is often ignored. As another drawback, previous research assumes the environment including available exits as stationary. However, we note that during emergency, some exits which are not often utilized in normal times are opened, which potentially helps if pedestrians are aware of them. In this paper, we analyze the effect of pedestrians' behavior, i.e., herd effect and knowledge of changing environment with Cellular Automata (CA) simulation. Results of the simulation show the harmful effect of herd effect as well as highlight the importance of timely informing pedestrians of environmental change. Accordingly, we propose policy and procedural recommendations for emergency management of large, crowded structures. Our future work includes considering more human factors and applying our model to log data provided by videos in public venues, which can further show effectiveness of our model in real scenarios.

description: In this work we study the long-time behavior for subcritical measure-valued branching processes with immigration on the space of tempered measures. Under some reasonable assumptions on the spatial motion, the branching and immigration mechanisms, we prove the existence and uniqueness of an invariant measure for the corresponding Markov transition semigroup. Moreover, we show that it converges with exponential rate to the unique invariant measure in the Wasserstein distance as well as in a distance defined in terms of Laplace transforms. Finally, we consider an application of our results to super-Lévy processes as well as branching particle systems on the lattice with noncompact spins.

description: Contextuality is a non-classical behaviour that can be exhibited by quantum systems. It is increasingly studied for its relationship to quantum-over-classical advantages in informatic tasks. To date, it has largely been studied in discrete-variable scenarios, where observables take values in discrete and usually finite sets. Practically, on the other hand, continuous-variable scenarios offer some of the most promising candidates for implementing quantum computations and informatic protocols. Here we set out a framework for treating contextuality in continuous-variable scenarios. It is shown that the Fine--Abramsky--Brandenburger theorem extends to this setting, an important consequence of which is that Bell nonlocality can be viewed as a special case of contextuality, as in the discrete case. The contextual fraction, a quantifiable measure of contextuality that bears a precise relationship to Bell inequality violations and quantum advantages, is also defined in this setting. It is shown to be a non-increasing monotone with respect to classical operations that include binning to discretise data. Finally, we consider how the contextual fraction can be formulated as an infinite linear program. Through Lasserre relaxations, we are able to express this infinite linear program as a hierarchy of semi-definite programs that allow to calculate the contextual fraction with increasing accuracy.

description: We show that the recently proposed cooling-by-doping mechanism allows to efficiently prepare interesting nonequilibrium states of the Hubbard model. Using nonequilibrium dynamical mean field theory and a particle-hole symmetric setup with dipolar excitations to full and empty bands we produce cold photo-doped Mott insulating states with a sharp Drude peak in the optical conductivity, a superconducting state in the repulsive Hubbard model with an inverted population, and $η$-paired states in systems with a large density of doublons and holons. The reshuffling of entropy into full and empty bands not only provides an efficient cooling mechanism, it also allows to overcome thermalization bottlenecks and slow dynamics that have been observed in systems cooled by the coupling to boson baths.

Unveiling the relation between herding and liquidity with trader lead-lag networks

description: We propose a method to infer lead-lag networks of traders from the observation of their trade record as well as to reconstruct their state of supply and demand when they do not trade. The method relies on the Kinetic Ising model to describe how information propagates among traders, assigning a positive or negative "opinion" to all agents about whether the traded asset price will go up or down. This opinion is reflected by their trading behavior, but whenever the trader is not active in a given time window, a missing value will arise. Using a recently developed inference algorithm, we are able to reconstruct a lead-lag network and to estimate the unobserved opinions, giving a clearer picture about the state of supply and demand in the market at all times. We apply our method to a dataset of clients of a major dealer in the Foreign Exchange market at the 5 minutes time scale. We identify leading players in the market and define a herding measure based on the observed and inferred opinions. We show the causal link between herding and liquidity in the inter-dealer market used by dealers to rebalance their inventories.

description: The Tanour spring is one of the several karst springs located in the northern part of Jordan. Water samples from the Tanour spring and precipitation were collected in the area of Ajloun in NW Jordan for the analysis of stable oxygen and hydrogen isotopes to evaluate the spring response to precipitation events. Rainwater and snow samples were collected from different elevations during winters of 2013–2014 and 2014–2015. In addition, spring samples were collected between December 2014 and March 2015. δ18O values in rainwater vary from −3.26 to −17.34 ‰ (average: −7.84 ± 3.23 ‰), while δ2H values range between −4.4 and −110.4 ‰ (average: −35.7 ± 25.0 ‰). Deuterium excess ranges from 17.8 to 34.1 ‰ (average: 27.1 ± 4.0 ‰). The Local Meteoric Water Line for the study area was calculated to be δ2H = 7.66*δ18O + 24.43 (R2 = 0.98). Pre-event spring discharge showed variation in δ18O (range −6.29 to −7.17 ‰; average −6.58 ± 0.19 ‰) and δ2H values (range −28.8 to −32.7 ‰; average: −30.5 ± 1.0 ‰). In contrast, δ18O and δ2H rapidly changed to more negative values during rainfall and snowmelt events and persisted for several days before returning to background values. Spring water temperature, spring discharge, and turbidity followed the trend in isotopic composition during and after the precipitation events. The rapid change in the isotopic composition, spring discharge, water temperature, and turbidity in response to recharge events is related to fast water travel times and low storage capacity in the conduit system of the karst aquifer. Based on the changes in the isotopic composition of spring water after the precipitation events, the water travel time in the aquifer is in the order of 5–11 days.

description: There has been a line of investigation in recent years that replicates dominating faulty research designs and which leads to reports of little or no significant results on incidental vocabulary learning. In this commentary I offer my criticism of the research stand that is taken by Karakaş & Sariçoban (2012) arguing that a) a one-time treatment is a discrepancy to the understanding of incidental vocabulary learning processes and b) findings are to be attributed to another area of research; these two considerations arise mainly from concept misinterpretation. Further in this commentary I also elaborate on inaccurately reported data.

description: A binary Steinhaus triangle is a triangle of zeroes and ones that points down and with the same local rule as the Pascal triangle modulo 2. A binary Steinhaus triangle is said to be rotationally symmetric, horizontally symmetric or dihedrally symmetric if it is invariant under the 120 degrees rotation, the horizontal reflection or both, respectively. The first part of this paper is devoted to the study of linear subspaces of rotationally symmetric, horizontally symmetric and dihedrally symmetric binary Steinhaus triangles. We obtain simple explicit bases for each of them by using elementary properties of the binomial coefficients. A Steinhaus graph is a simple graph with an adjacency matrix whose upper-triangular part is a binary Steinhaus triangle. A Steinhaus graph is said to be even or odd if all its vertex degrees are even or odd, respectively. One of the main results of this paper is the existence of an isomorphism between the linear subspace of even Steinhaus graphs and a certain linear subspace of dihedrally symmetric binary Steinhaus triangles. This permits us to give, in the second part of this paper, an explicit basis for even Steinhaus graphs and for the vector space of parity-regular Steinhaus graphs; i.e., the linear subspace of Steinhaus graphs that are even or odd. Finally, in the last part of this paper, we consider the generalized Pascal triangles, that are triangles of zeroes and ones, that point up now, and always with the same local rule as the Pascal triangle modulo 2. New simple bases for each linear subspace of symmetric generalized Pascal triangles are deduced from the results of the first part.

description: The Supreme Court of Canada's 2001 adjudication of the Trinity Western University v. British Columbia College of Teachers case established a framework for resolving disputes involving colliding Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms rights. The Court held that administrative bodies may consider discriminatory practices, but that their decisions must be fully and correctly justified using actual evidence, and give due regard to religious rights. The Court ruled that religious belief alone may not be the basis to deny the right to a government benefit or to full participation in Canadian society. However, the Court broadened the application of the Charter by allowing administrative tribunals to consider Charter values in making rulings about institutions that are not subject to Charter scrutiny but do prepare professionals to serve in the public square. The paper concludes by discussing the implications of this decision for a pluralistic democracy.

Year: 2018

description: This paper presents an argument for reconceptualizing citizenship education as a kind of moral education. Before this can happen, we need to turn attention away from the current debates between cosmopolitans and nationalists about the appropriate sphere for political allegiance. These distract us from more important concerns about the content of citizenship education. The debate between cosmopolitans and nationalists is briefly described in order to clarify the questions and illustrate several issues relevant to educators. This discussion is followed by an argument for teaching future citizens about moral disagreement and conflict as a way to prepare them to participate effectively and responsibly in political discourse.

description: Multiple-choice VQA has drawn increasing attention from researchers and end-users recently. As the demand for automatically constructing large-scale multiple-choice VQA data grows, we introduce a novel task called textual Distractors Generation for VQA (DG-VQA) focusing on generating challenging yet meaningful distractors given the context image, question, and correct answer. The DG-VQA task aims at generating distractors without ground-truth training samples since such resources are rarely available. To tackle the DG-VQA unsupervisedly, we propose Gobbet, a reinforcement learning(RL) based framework that utilizes pre-trained VQA models as an alternative knowledge base to guide the distractor generation process. In Gobbet, a pre-trained VQA model serves as the environment in RL setting to provide feedback for the input multi-modal query, while a neural distractor generator serves as the agent to take actions accordingly. We propose to use existing VQA models' performance degradation as indicators of the quality of generated distractors. On the other hand, we show the utility of generated distractors through data augmentation experiments, since robustness is more and more important when AI models apply to unpredictable open-domain scenarios or security-sensitive applications. We further conduct a manual case study on the factors why distractors generated by Gobbet can fool existing models.

description: We propose that a significant positive deviation from 1/3 for the spin density matrix element $ρ_{00}$ of the $ϕ$ meson may indicate the existence of a mean field of the $ϕ$ meson generated in heavy-ion collisions. This explains why STAR preliminary data for the $ϕ$ meson's $ρ_{00}$ are much larger than 1/3 while the data of $Λ$ and $\barΛ$ polarization seem not to allow such a significant and positive deviation. The contribution may be from the polarization of the strange quark and antiquark through the $ϕ$ field, an effective mode of the gluon field in strong interaction. We show that $ρ_{00}$ for the $ϕ$ meson is a good analyzer for fields even if they may strongly fluctuate in space-time.

description: Classical numerical methods for solving solid–liquid phase change assume a constant density upon melting or solidification and are not efficient when applied to phase change with volume expansion or shrinkage. However, solid-liquid phase change is accompanied by a volume change and an appropriate numerical method must take this into account. Therefore, an efficient algorithm for solid-liquid phase change with a density change is presented. Its performance for a one-dimensional solidification problem and for the quasi two-dimensional melting of octadecane in a cubic cavity was tested. The new algorithm requires less than 1/9 of the iterations compared to the source based method in one dimension and less than 1/7 in two dimensions. Moreover, the new method is validated against PIV measurements from the literature. A conjugate heat transfer simulation, which includes parts of the experimental setup, shows that parasitic heat fluxes can significantly alter the shape of the phase front near the bottom wall.

description: At the beginning of our Age of Information, the 21th century, the influence of IT (Information Technology) got so important that all parts of human live and society where involved. Especially Media Industry started a great hype which is not finished till now. Mobile Media have got a really up to date part of especially young society.
On the level of serious science it has been up to date to use the word Information in all reports and publishing papers. A lot of semantics have been used and some scientists (Prof. FLEISSNER, Prof HOFKIRCHNER, Prof. CAPURRO and the author) tried to abstract this word to a constant scientific term. So for first time the author tried a worldwide unifying definition of the terms Information and Data. It’s importance is documented by the topic “Information Scientific Axioms”.
In second part – based on it – Clues for generally evidence of Information are written down. They are a set of informationscientific terms - excerpted out of real nature and society. The way of Information between Object and Subject or involving Human Being in big and complex machine systems (aeroplanes, ships and industrial productions) made it necessary to think additionally about the general usage of Information. As a useful result many relationships to other sciences are possible. They bring the benefit to be unifying and scientifically worldwide structuring.
As next research object general forms of actual Information are investigated.
As final result for future the author asks: „How can we make Information – in all forms – more positive and precious for Human Being? “. This is a new, scientific topic for the future of IT and human society.

Построение санкций уголовно-правовых норм за преступления, посягающие на трудовые права граждан: к постановке проблемы
Creators: name: Курсаев Александр Викторович
Publisher: name: Психопедагогика в правоохранительных органах
Year: 2020
Subjects: преступления против трудовых прав граждан; уголовная политика; санкция; пенализация; наказание.

description: Введение. Актуальность выбранной темы обусловлена важностью института уголовно-правовых санкций, отражающего взаимосвязь преступления и наказания, служащего инструментом практического воплощения соразмерности ответственности совершенному преступлению и способствующего достижению целей наказания. Для обеспечения эффективности правоприменительного воздействия санкция должна максимально учитывать специфику конкретных преступлений, влекущих ее применение, а также особенности личности преступника для индивидуализации назначенного наказания. В связи с этим автор обратился к исследованию проблем построения санкции уголовно-правовой нормы за преступления, посягающие на трудовые права граждан. Материалы и методы. Наряду с общенаучными методами (диалектический, индуктивный, дедуктивный, анализа и синтеза) применялись частнонаучные методы исследования: формально-юридический, системно-правовой, сравнительно-правовой, социологический. Методологической основой формулирования положений послужили теоретические разработки и концепции в области уголовного права и криминологии, а также конкретные положения, выработанные отдельными авторами на основе изучения практики применения уголовного закона и тенденций развития преступности. Результаты и обсуждение. Анализируются вопросы уголовной политики и пенализации преступлений, посягающих на трудовые права граждан. Обращается внимание на то, что эффективность уголовной политики зависит и от правильного построения санкции уголовно-правовой нормы. Рассматриваются сущность и правовые основы построения санкций за преступления против трудовых прав граждан. Анализируются особенности построения санкций за названные преступления. Обозначены основные теоретико-методологические взгляды отечественных криминалистов относительно целей и подходов к построению уголовно-правовых санкций. Описаны функции наказания и связь их с санкциями. Выводы. Повышение эффективности предупреждения преступлений против трудовых прав граждан требует совершенствования санкций за данные преступления. Развитие системы санкций должно строиться не только за счет теоретических поисков в построении эффективной системы уголовных наказаний, но и путем статистических и социологических исследований, изучения практики назначения наказания.

description: 1. A filamentous fungus, Cunninghamella blakesleeana CGMCC 3.970, was applied as a microbial system to mimic mammalian metabolism of 4,5-dimethoxyl-canthin-6-one (1). Compound 1 belongs to canthin-6-one type alkaloids, which is a major bioactive constituent of a traditional Chinese medicine (the stems of Picrasma quassioides). 2. After 72 h of incubation in potato dextrose broth, 1 was metabolized to seven metabolites as follows: 4-methoxyl-5-hydroxyl-canthin-6-one (M1), 4-hydroxyl-5-methoxyl-canthin-6-one (M2), canthin-6-one (M3), canthin-6-one N-oxide (M4), 10-hydroxyl-4,5-dimethoxyl-canthin-6-one (M5), 1-methoxycarbonl-β-carboline (M6), and 4-methoxyl-5-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-canthin-6-one (M7). 3. The structures of metabolites were determined using spectroscopic analyses, chemical methods, and comparison of NMR data with those of known compounds. Among them, M7 was a new compound. 4. The metabolic pathways of 1 were proposed, and the metabolic processes involved phase I (O-demethylation, dehydroxylation, demethoxylation, N-oxidation, hydroxylation, and oxidative ring cleavage) and phase II (glycosylation) reactions. 5. This was the first research on microbial transformation of canthin-6-one alkaloid, which could be a useful microbial model for producing the mammalian phase I and phase II metabolites of canthin-6-one alkaloids. 6. 1, M1−M5, and M7 are canthin-6-one alkaloids, whereas M6 belongs to β-carboline type alkaloids. The strain of Cunninghamella blakesleeana can supply an approach to transform canthin-6-one type alkaloids into β-carboline type alkaloids.

description: Введение. Проведен криминологический анализ женской преступности в контексте современных условий развития российского общества и состояния женской преступности в зарубежных странах, что в условиях нарастающего процесса глобализации общественного устройства дает возможность по-новому оценить этот феномен, определить направления и стратегию его профилактики. Цель — выявление современных тенденций в состоянии женской преступности в России. Материалы и методы. Использован метод анализа статистических данных, опубликованных ГИАЦ МВД России и Судебным департаментом Российской Федерации за период с 2003 г. по 2018 г. Проведен сравнительный анализ состояния женской преступности в России и зарубежных странах. Результаты и обсуждение. Женская преступность в России характеризуется относительным постоянством ее доли в структуре преступности, цикличностью развития и большей чувствительностью ее состояния к изменению криминогенной обстановки, чем преступность в целом. Причинами роста «беловоротничковой» преступности женщин являются социальнопсихологические изменения — эмансипация женщины в современном обществе, изменение ее социальной роли и гендерных установок, которые сочетаются с новыми криминогенными факторами женской преступности — возложением на женщин обязанности по содержанию семьи, на фоне дискриминации женщин в сфере труда и занятия малооплачиваемых должностей. Выводы. Структура женской преступности за последние 15 лет проявляет тенденцию к поляризации двух основных типов женской преступности: «общекриминальной» и «беловоротничковой». Основной рост в долгосрочной перспективе демонстрирует корыстная умышленная преступность, в том числе ее «беловоротничковый» сегмент.

description: We formulate the quadratic eigenvalue problem underlying the mathematical model of a linear vibrational system as an eigenvalue problem of a diagonal-plus-low-rank matrix $A$. The eigenvector matrix of $A$ has a Cauchy-like structure. Optimal viscosities are those for which $trace(X)$ is minimal, where $X$ is the solution of the Lyapunov equation $AX+XA^{*}=GG^{*}$. Here $G$ is a low-rank matrix which depends on the eigenfrequencies that need to be damped. After initial eigenvalue decomposition of linearized problem which requires $O(n^3)$ operations, our algorithm computes optimal viscosities for each choice of external dampers in $O(n^2)$ operations, provided that the number of dampers is small. Hence, the subsequent optimization is order of magnitude faster than in the standard approach which solves Lyapunov equation in each step, thus requiring $O(n^3)$ operations. Our algorithm is based on $O(n^2)$ eigensolver for complex symmetric diagonal-plus-rank-one matrices and fast $O(n^2)$ multiplication of linked Cauchy-like matrices.

Алкогольное опьянение как фактор, влияющий на квалификацию преступлений, связанных с нарушением правил дорожного движения и эксплуатации транспортных средств
Creators: name: Комарикова Софья Александровна

Subjects: уголовная ответственность; квалификация; нарушение правил; эксплуатация транспортных средств; состояние опьянения; концентрация алкоголя в крови и выдыхаемом воздухе.

description: Введение. В настоящее время в нашей стране количество преступлений, предусмотренных ст. 264 УК РФ, остается на недопустимо высоком уровне. Не утрачивают актуальности вопросы борьбы с дорожно-транспортными преступлениями, о чем свидетельствуют мероприятия, посвященные обеспечению безопасности дорожного движения, с участием первых лиц государства. Материалы и методы. В ходе исследования проинтервьюировано 11 врачей-наркологов, в том числе психиатров-наркологов, проводящих медицинское освидетельствование на состояние опьянения. Метод анализа использован при изучении судебных решений по делам о преступлениях, предусмотренных ст. 264 УК РФ, медицинской литературы. Статистический метод применен при оценке официальных данных о количестве дорожно-транспортных происшествий, погибших и раненных в них. Результаты и обсуждение. Некоторые преступные нарушения правил дорожного движения в рамки неосторожного преступления не вписываются, являясь преступлением, совершенным с косвенным умыслом. В первую очередь, следует говорить о нарушениях, совершенных в состоянии опьянения, повлекших причинение тяжкого вреда здоровью, смерть одного или более лиц. Несмотря на разнообразие веществ, вызывающих опьянение, доступным и распространенным остается алкоголь. Практический опыт исследователей в области медицины, результаты проведенного интервьюирования позволили определить границы, в пределах которых происходит изменение функций, влияющих на качество управления транспортным средством. Выводы. Показатель содержания алкоголя в крови выше 0,5% (более 0,21 мг/л в выдыхаемом воздухе) является общепринятым медицинским признаком нахождения водителя в состоянии опьянения легкой степени, превышение которого будет достоверно указывать на умышленный характер допущенных нарушений правил дорожного движения и эксплуатации транспортных средств. Водитель не может рассчитывать на предотвращение неблагоприятных тяжких последствий совершенных им нарушений правил дорожного движения и эксплуатации транспортных средств, поэтому преступление необходимо рассматривать в рамках преступления, совершенного с косвенным умыслом.

description: Development of ultrafast lasers and non-linear optical techniques over the last two decades provides tools to access real-time dynamics of low energy excitations in superconductors. For example, time-resolved THz spectroscopy and time- and angular-resolved photoemission spectroscopy provide access to the real-time dynamics of the superconducting gap amplitude. Such studies enable determination of microscopic parameters like quasi-particle recombination rates, pair-breaking rates and electron-boson coupling constants. Recently, intense THz pulses have been used to probe the non-linear dynamics, including observation of collective modes. Moreover, using low frequency electromagnetic pulses, there are several reports of amplification of superconductivity in both conventional and unconventional superconductors. Starting with a brief historical overview of the pioneering work, where non-equilibrium phenomena in superconductors were investigated using quasi-continuous excitation, we review some of the insights that are provided by using real-time approaches. We focus on conventional BCS superconductors, whose ground state is reasonably well understood, and address similarities and open questions related to the corresponding studies in high-T$_{c}$ superconductors.
