description: Australia ratified The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (The Convention) in December 1990. In ratifying The Convention, Australian Governments undertook to implement each of the Articles of The Convention by examining current legal statutes and changing those statutes which the government considered were not in the interests of children. The process of implementation is further complicated by the fact that despite having certain rights, some children also breach the law and consequently come under the legal jurisdiction of juvenile justice. The main focus of the present study is the interface between children's rights and the implementation of the juvenile justice process. In order to examine the interface between children's rights and juvenile justice, a policy analysis was undertaken which was specifically pertinent to the Queensland system and which compared the government's responsibilities under The Convention together with the proposed changes to the Juvenile Justice Act in Queensland. These proposed changes were analyzed for the implications which they had for the children themselves, the children's parents and the children's education.

description: The notion of moment differentiation is extended to the set of generalized multisums of formal power series via an appropriate integral representation and accurate estimates of the moment derivatives. The main result is applied to characterize generalized multisummability of the formal solution to a family of singularly perturbed moment differential equations in the complex domain, broadening widely the range of singularly perturbed functional equations to be considered in practice, such as singularly perturbed differential equations and singularly perturbed fractional differential equations.

Dynamical simulation of the evolution of single dislocation configurations in MBE grown heterostructures

Year: 2023

description: Submission note: A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to the School of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences, Faculty of Science, Technology and Engineering, La Trobe University, Bundoora.

The objective of this work was to study the evolution by simulation of a single threading dislocation in an arbitrarily complex, multilayered, semiconductor heterostructure containing materials such as InGaAsN, AlInAsN and InAlGaAs grown on GaAs substrates by Molecular Beam Epitaxy. The evolution follows the monolayer by monolayer MBE growth process and assumes linear elasticity theory as it applies to an isotropic material. The Peach-Koehler force is calculated at each Point of Interest (POI) along the dislocation line, which is a closed or infinite loop comprising of infinitesimal straight segments. The stresses at a POI arise from bi-layer stresses due to layer misfits, the self-stress of the dislocation itself and stresses arising from the necessity to cancel all stresses acting at the growth surface, which is constantly changing its position. The model calculates the dynamic evolution of the dislocation configuration during the semiconductor material growth process, calculating all stresses as layer upon layer is added and taking into account the effects of frictional stress as expressed by the Peierls force. Because of hysteresis effects the history of the evolution of the dislocation configuration as monolayers are added contributes to the final dislocation configuration. The model includes a velocity dependent Peierls friction force, consistent with experimentally observed dislocation glide. To the author’s knowledge there has to date been no work presenting an analysis of dislocation configuration evolution during the growth process which includes calculation of cancelling surface stresses and takes into account the effects of adding one mono-layer at a time. This work has also developed strategies for making the surface stress calculations accurate and efficient and for this purpose comparison with a set of analytically solvable dislocation configurations has been invaluable. The calculation of self-stresses was performed with strategies to manage the singularity at the core. The final result has been the creation of a working program capable of modelling dislocation configuration evolution in arbitrarily complex strained multi-layers.

description: This study investigates citizens’ perceptions of the European Union’s (EU’s) and member states’ legitimacy in two major crises over the last 15 years: the eurozone and debt crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic. By collecting and analysing letters to the editor from the German daily newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung (SZ) in the period 2010 to 2021, we examine responsibility attribution to political actors, the overall tone of the letters and whether these letters are focused on the polity or the policy dimension. The results of our study show how these perceptions of legitimacy of the EU and national executives that are expressed in the letters to the editor were debated differently in the two crises studied. Additionally, we find that there was a clear focus on the national executive during the pandemic. Furthermore, the crises provide a public opportunity to criticise how the political system works, thus contesting the legitimacy of EU or national polity extending beyond concrete policy measures.

description: Short range particle repulsion is rather important property of the hadronic and nuclear matter equations of state. We present a novel equation of state which is based on the virial expansion for the multicomponent mixtures with hard-core repulsion. In addition to the hard-core repulsion taken into account by the proper volumes of particles, this equation of state explicitly contains the surface tension which is induced by another part of the hard-core repulsion between particles. At high densities the induced surface tension vanishes and the excluded volume treatment of hard-core repulsion is switched to its proper volume treatment. Possible applications of this equation of state to a description of hadronic multiplicities measured in A+A collisions, to an investigation of the nuclear matter phase diagram properties and to the neutron star interior modeling are discussed.

description: At sufficiently high temperature and energy density, nuclear matter undergoes a transition to a phase in which quarks and gluons are not confined: the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) [1]. Such an extreme state of strongly-interacting QCD (Quantum Chromo-Dynamics) matter is produced in the laboratory with high-energy collisions of heavy nuclei, where an enhanced production of strange hadrons is observed [2-6]. Strangeness enhancement, originally proposed as a signature of QGP formation in nuclear collisions [7], is more pronounced for multi-strange baryons. Several effects typical of heavy-ion phenomenology have been observed in high-multiplicity proton-proton (pp) collisions [8,9]. Yet, enhanced production of multi-strange particles has not been reported so far. Here we present the first observation of strangeness enhancement in high-multiplicity pp collisions. We find that the integrated yields of strange and multi-strange particles relative to pions increases significantly with the event charged-particle multiplicity. The measurements are in remarkable agreement with p-Pb collision results [10,11] indicating that the phenomenon is related to the final system created in the collision. In high-multiplicity events strangeness production reaches values similar to those observed in Pb-Pb collisions, where a QGP is formed.

description: With the field of rigid-body robotics having matured in the last fifty years, routing, planning, and manipulation of deformable objects have recently emerged as a more untouched research area in many fields ranging from surgical robotics to industrial assembly and construction. Routing approaches for deformable objects which rely on learned implicit spatial representations (e.g., Learning-from-Demonstration methods) make them vulnerable to changes in the environment and the specific setup. On the other hand, algorithms that entirely separate the spatial representation of the deformable object from the routing and manipulation, often using a representation approach independent of planning, result in slow planning in high dimensional space. This paper proposes a novel approach to routing deformable one-dimensional objects (e.g., wires, cables, ropes, sutures, threads). This approach utilizes a compact representation for the object, allowing efficient and fast online routing. The spatial representation is based on the geometrical decomposition of the space into convex subspaces, resulting in a discrete coding of the deformable object configuration as a sequence. With such a configuration, the routing problem can be solved using a fast dynamic programming sequence matching method that calculates the next routing move. The proposed method couples the routing and efficient configuration for improved planning time. Our simulation and real experiments show the method correctly computing the next manipulation action in sub-millisecond time and accomplishing various routing and manipulation tasks.

description: The development of relational electromagnetism after Gauss appears to stop around 1870. Maxwell recognised relational electromagnetism as mathematically equivalent to his own formulae and called for an explanation of why so different conceptions have such a large part in common. We reconstruct relational electromagnetism guided by the No Arbitrariness Principle. Lorenz' idea of electromagnetic waves, together with the "least action principle" proposed by Lorentz are enough to derive Maxwell's equations, the continuity equation and the Lorentz' force. We show that there must be two more symmetries in electromagnetism: a descriptive one expressing source/detector relations, and another relating perceptions of the same source by detectors moving with different (constant) relative velocities. The Poincar{é} group relates perceived fields by different receivers and Lorentz boosts elate source/detector perceptions. We answer Maxwell's philosophical question showing how similar theories can be abduced using different inferred entities. Each form of abduction implies an interpretation and a facilitation of the theoretical construction.

description: The minimum evolution time between multi-qubit quantum states is estimated for non-Markovian quantum channels. We consider the maximally coherent pure and mixed states as well as multi-qubit $X$ states as initial states and discuss the impact of initial coherence and the behaviour of coherence on their speed of evolution for both dephasing and dissipative processes. The role of the non-zero value of initial coherence under information backflow conditions for the non-unital dissipative process is revealed by the flow of quantum speed limit time ($τ_{QSL}$). The trade-off between mixedness and coherence on the speed limit time reveals the nature of the quantum process the states undergo. The complementarity effect between mixedness and coherence is more prominent in the quantum non-unital dissipation process. The parametric trajectory of speed limit time vividly depicts the difference in the evolution of pure and mixed initial states, and this could be used to distinguish between the unital and non-unital channels studied in this work. Our investigation of quantum speed limit time on multi-qubit entangled $X$ states reveals that $τ_{QSL}$ can be identified as a potential dynamical witness to distinguish multi-qubit states in the course of evolution.

description: Survivable design of cross-layer networks, such as the cloud computing infrastructure, lies in its resource deployment and allocation and mapping of the logical (virtual datacenter/IP) network into the physical infrastructure (cloud backbone/WDM) such that link or node failure(s) in the physical infrastructure would not result in cascading failures in the logical network. Most of the prior approaches for survivable cross-layer network design aim at single-link failure scenario, which are not applicable to the more challenging multi-failure scenarios. Also, as many of these approaches use the cross-layer cut concept, enumeration of all cuts in the network is required and thus introducing exponential number of constraints. To overcome these difficulties, we investigate in this paper survivable mapping approaches against multiple physical link failures and its special case, Shared Risk Link Group (SRLG) failure. We present the necessary and sufficient conditions based on both cross-layer spanning trees and cutsets to guarantee a survivable mapping when multiple physical link failures occur. Based on the necessary and sufficient conditions, we propose to solve the problem through (1) mixed-integer linear programs which avoid enumerating all combinations of link failures, and (2) an algorithm which generates/adds logical spanning trees sequentially. Our simulation results show that the proposed approaches can produce survivable mappings effectively against both $k$- and SRLG-failures.

description: Many problems in control theory can be formulated as semidefinite programs (SDPs). For large-scale SDPs, it is important to exploit the inherent sparsity to improve the scalability. This paper develops efficient first-order methods to solve SDPs with chordal sparsity based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). We show that chordal decomposition can be applied to either the primal or the dual standard form of a sparse SDP, resulting in scaled versions of ADMM algorithms with the same computational cost. Each iteration of our algorithms consists of a projection on the product of small positive semidefinite cones, followed by a projection on an affine set, both of which can be carried out efficiently. Our techniques are implemented in CDCS, an open source add-on to MATLAB. Numerical experiments on large-scale sparse problems in SDPLIB and random SDPs with block-arrow sparse patterns show speedups compared to some common state-of-the-art software packages.

description: Fault-tolerant flight control faces challenges, as developing a model-based controller for each unexpected failure is unrealistic, and online learning methods can handle limited system complexity due to their low sample efficiency. In this research, a model-free coupled-dynamics flight controller for a jet aircraft able to withstand multiple failure types is proposed. An offline trained cascaded Soft Actor-Critic Deep Reinforcement Learning controller is successful on highly coupled maneuvers, including a coordinated 40 degree bank climbing turn with a normalized Mean Absolute Error of 2.64%. The controller is robust to six failure cases, including the rudder jammed at -15 deg, the aileron effectiveness reduced by 70%, a structural failure, icing and a backward c.g. shift as the response is stable and the climbing turn is completed successfully. Robustness to biased sensor noise, atmospheric disturbances, and to varying initial flight conditions and reference signal shapes is also demonstrated.

description: Thermal Markovian dynamics is typically obtained by coupling a system to a sufficiently hot bath with a large heat capacity. Here we present a scheme for inducing Markovian dynamics using an arbitrarily small and cold heat bath. The scheme is based on injecting phase noise to the small bath. Several unique signatures of small bath are studied. We discuss realizations in ion traps and superconducting qubits and show that it is possible to create an ideal setting where the system dynamics is indifferent to the internal bath dynamics.
description: V2 contains new contributions by the new authors SG and RO about experimental realization in superconducting circuits and ion traps. In addition, the discussion on system-bath correlation in V2 was extended. The study of generalized Gibbs states was omitted in V2, but can still be found in V1. More generally, V2 is a clearer and more concise version
Covalently immobilised cobalt-based molecular catalyst for carbon dioxide electroreduction

description: The electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) to value-added products is an attractive ‘green’ way to mitigate global warming and resolve energy crisis issues. Nowadays, molecular catalysts are considered to be promising for industrial CO production due to their high atom efficiency and versatile ligand environment. Heterogenisation method has a significant effect on their performance, yet it is one of the least studied fields. In this thesis, for the first time, cobalt(II) phthalocyanine was covalently linked to carbon-based electrode with C-C bond. Compared to noncovalently immobilized CoPc, covalently grafted catalyst produced 2 times more CO with 2-fold higher turnover frequency TOF(CO) and 33 % higher Faradaic efficiency towards CO (FE(CO)). After a 24 h electrolysis, covalently grafted CoPc retained 50 % of the active sites as opposed to 35 % for noncovalently immobilised CoPc. Based on the experimental data, the mechanism involving the Co0 as a catalytically active site is proposed. The improved catalytic performance may be attributed to a more facile electron transfer through the C-C bond. This work is a great addition to heterogenised molecular catalysts active in CO2-to-CO electroreduction and it lays the foundation of a new subclass of covalently attached Pc based catalysts.

Stellar-mass black holes in young massive and open stellar clusters and their role in gravitational-wave generation

description: The dynamical processes involving stellar-remnant black holes (BH) in stellar clusters has always drawn attention due to the BHs' potential in a number of astrophysical phenomena, especially the dynamical formation of binary black holes (BBH), which would potentially coalesce via radiation of gravitational waves (GW). This study presents a preliminary set of evolutionary models of compact stellar clusters with initial masses ranging over $1.0\times10^4M_\odot-5.0\times10^4M_\odot$, and half-mass radius of 2 pc or 1 pc, that is typical for young massive and starburst clusters. They have metallicities between $0.05Z_\odot-Z_\odot$. Including contemporary schemes for stellar wind and remnant-formation, such model clusters are evolved, for the first time, using the state-of-the-art direct N-body evolution program NBODY7, until their dissolution or at least for 10 Gyr. That way, a self-regulatory behaviour in the effects of dynamical interactions among the BHs, especially while heating and expanding the cluster and self-depleting the BHs, is demonstrated. The BBH mergers obtained here show a prominence in triple-mediated mergers while being bound to the clusters, compared to those occurring among the BBHs that are dynamically ejected from the clusters. This is in contrast with earlier N-body computations and also with recent Monte-Carlo method based ones. A broader mass spectrum of BHs and ejection of BBHs generally of wider orbits and in lower numbers, for the cluster masses explored here, might cause this which is yet to be fully understood. Among the BBH coalescences obtained here, there are ones that resemble the detected GW151226, LVT151012, and GW150914 events and also ones which are even more massive. A preliminary estimate suggests few 10s - 100s of BBH coalescences per year, originating due to dynamics in stellar clusters, that can be detected by the LIGO at its design sensitivity.

description: Epidemic disease spreading is conventionally often modelled and analyzed by means of rate and diffusion equations, following the paradigms of well-controlled chemical reactions and diffusive dynamics in a test tube. Yet, serious worries that this suggestive and appealing similarity might be a false friend were already voiced by the pioneers of mathematical epidemiology. A century later, we can draw on cross-fertilizations from network and game theory and the emerging field of eco-evolutionary dynamics to substantiate them. Epidemiological spreading is thereby revealed as a fundamentally heterogeneous and erratic process that shares certain properties with more unwieldy phenomena, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, traffic jams, and stock crashes. They are all characterised by high tail risks that materialize very rarely but fatally. That they arise from bursts of unlikely chains of localized random "superspreader" events, by which micro-scale fluctuations and uncertainties may get heftily magnified, makes their accurate prediction and control intrinsically and notoriously hard. That epidemic disease spreading is moreover closely intertwined with equally heterogeneous genetic drift and information feedback adds new challenges -- and chances.

description: A causal scenario is a graph that describes the cause and effect relationships between all relevant variables in an experiment. A scenario is deemed `not interesting' if there is no device-independent way to distinguish the predictions of classical physics from any generalised probabilistic theory (including quantum mechanics). Conversely, an interesting scenario is one in which there exists a gap between the predictions of different operational probabilistic theories, as occurs for example in Bell-type experiments. Henson, Lal and Pusey (HLP) recently proposed a sufficient condition for a causal scenario to not be interesting. In this paper we supplement their analysis with some new techniques and results. We first show that existing graphical techniques due to Evans can be used to confirm by inspection that many graphs are interesting without having to explicitly search for inequality violations. For three exceptional cases -- the graphs numbered 15,16,20 in HLP -- we show that there exist non-Shannon type entropic inequalities that imply these graphs are interesting. In doing so, we find that existing methods of entropic inequalities can be greatly enhanced by conditioning on the specific values of certain variables.

description: For a given polynomial $P$ with simple zeros, and a given semiclassical weight $w$, we present a construction that yields a linear second-order differential equation (ODE), and in consequence, an electrostatic model for zeros of $P$. The coefficients of this ODE are written in terms of a dual polynomial that we call the electrostatic partner of $P$. This construction is absolutely general and can be carried out for any polynomial with simple zeros and any semiclassical weight on the complex plane. An additional assumption of quasi-orthogonality of $P$ with respect to $w$ allows us to give more precise bounds on the degree of the electrostatic partner. In the case of orthogonal and quasi-orthogonal polynomials, we recover some of the known results and generalize others. Additionally, for the Hermite--Padé or multiple orthogonal polynomials of type II, this approach yields a system of linear second-order differential equations, from which we derive an electrostatic interpretation of their zeros in terms of a vector equilibrium. More detailed results are obtained in the special cases of Angelesco, Nikishin, and generalized Nikishin systems. We also discuss the discrete-to-continuous transition of these models in the asymptotic regime, as the number of zeros tends to infinity, into the known vector equilibrium problems. Finally, we discuss how the system of obtained second-order ODEs yields a third-order differential equation for these polynomials, well described in the literature. We finish the paper by presenting several illustrative examples.

description: In spite of decades of studies and manifestos arguing for the ‘use’ of the humanities for various purposes, from their capacity to form citizens (Nussbaum, 1998, 2010) through to more specific appeals to their potential to improve technology development (Madsbjerg, 2017), the idea of an ‘applied humanities’ has yet to fully take explicit hold within our training and research paradigms. In spite of this, however, appeals to the humanities-relevant power of narrative and storytelling seem ever more present in new journalism, brand narratives, and even narrative economics (Shiller, 2019). For this reason, we reviewed literature on applications of fiction, literary studies, or CLS outside of the academy to identify professionals who could benefit from this CLS infrastructure. In conversations with those professionals, we aimed to understand how the field would have to further develop to take into account the needs specific to their field. In the first section, the literature review of the CLS INFRA D3.5 report aims to make transparent the utility of the potential infrastructure (answering also the question of utility for whom) instead of taking the risk of obscuring its applicability through consideration of data collections, services, communication channels, and other design choices underpinning research infrastructures. This report explores not only the needs and methods of currently known and clearly emerging user groups but also of potential users from outside of the academy. The second section on the interviews describes potential user stories and requirements from 15 focussed interviews with professionals from the field of policy, journalism, art, consultancy publishing, medicine, and bibliotherapy. From these conversations, we infer potential use case scenarios for applications of literature and CLS beyond academia.

This research was conducted within the framework of the European-funded Computational Literary Studies Infrastructure (CLS INFRA, https://clsinfra.io/) project, funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 101004984, which aims to build a shared and sustainable infrastructure for literary studies with digital tools.

CGC factorization for forward particle production in proton-nucleus collisions at next-to-leading order

description: Within the Color Glass Condensate effective theory, we reconsider the next-to-leading order (NLO) calculation of the single inclusive particle production at forward rapidities in proton-nucleus collisions at high energy. Focusing on quark production for definiteness, we establish a new factorization scheme, perturbatively correct through NLO, in which there is no `rapidity subtraction'. That is, the NLO correction to the impact factor is not explicitly separated from the high-energy evolution. Our construction exploits the skeleton structure of the (NLO) Balitsky-Kovchegov equation, in which the first step of the evolution is explicitly singled out. The NLO impact factor is included by computing this first emission with the exact kinematics for the emitted gluon, rather than by using the eikonal approximation. This particular calculation has already been presented in the literature [1,2], but the reorganization of the perturbation theory that we propose is new. As compared to the proposal in [1,2], our scheme is free of the fine-tuning inherent in the rapidity subtraction, which might be the origin of the negativity of the NLO cross-section observed in previous studies.
