subject: Multidimensional data

description: In current database applications there is a large and growing amount of multidimensional data that is not well supported. Modern database applications are turning more often to multidimensional data for a more sophisticated representation and reasoning of their universe. The amount of data collected, processed and stored continues to grow as new technologies emerge. Even relational data can be seen to be multidimensional as each attribute corresponds to a dimension. Despite the large and growing data sets, multidimensional data is not well supported above low dimensionality and there is no index available in current commercial RDBMS that can scale up well beyond low dimensionality. A major problem with multidimensional data is that it has no true order. Space filling curves are an elegant solution to organizing multidimensional space. In this work we adapt and further develop this concept further to create a curve that connects all regions in space and the regions can be of various hyper-cubic-like sizes, not just points. This allows an efficient transformation of interval queries into regions of physically clustered data. We therefore present the Variable Granularity Curve (VG-Curve), a symmetrical index for multidimensional points, spatially extended objects and general database relations. We show that our method is applicable to a variety of multidimensional database applications. The method is immediately able to be constructed within current commercial database systems and thus inherits industrial strength concurrency and recovery services. The main contributions of this study are summarized as follows: • We propose a novel twist on indexing that allows improved support for multidimensional point data. Our method ensures an efficient clustering of multidimensional data that allows for primary index style storage and utilizes a two stage filtering that efficiently prunes the search space. In an extensive empirical study on up to 18 dimensions we show that the VG-Curve represents a significant improvement over the currently available access methods for managing multidimensional point data, and scales well with an increasing number of dimensions (Terry, Stantic & Sattar 2008). In addition we also investigate the applicability of the proposed method to manage spatially extended data, identifying its suitability to index both interval and point attributes together. • We show that the VC-curve can be effectively and efficiently applied to the emerging technology of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) that generates huge amounts of spatio-temporal data. We show empirically, on data sets of three, five and nine dimensional data, that our method is an efficient replacement for the best of currently available off-the-shelf index methods, i.e, the set of compound indices representing all combinations of dimensions.

description: We present results on light weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) searches with annual modulation (AM) analysis on data from a 1-kg mass $p$-type point-contact germanium detector of the CDEX-1B experiment at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory. Datasets with a total live time of 3.2 yr within a 4.2 yr span are analyzed with analysis threshold of 250 eVee. Limits on WIMP-nucleus ($χ$-$N$) spin-independent cross sections as function of WIMP mass ($m_χ$) at 90\% confidence level (C.L.) are derived using the dark matter halo model. Within the context of the standard halo model, the 90\% C.L. allowed regions implied by the DAMA/LIBRA and CoGeNT AM-based analysis are excluded at $>$99.99\% and 98\% C.L., respectively. These results correspond to the best sensitivity at $m_χ$$

description: Skilled readers are often characterised as more metacognitively aware than less skilled readers. This thesis reports on findings from a study that explored metacognitive awareness of reading strategy usage of Emirati learners of English as a foreign language (EFL) enrolled in post-secondary educational institutions in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The research had two key goals: first, to identify participants’ metacognitive awareness of the reading strategies they use when reading academic texts in English and, second, to establish whether there were any identified differences between male and female participants. Together, these goals allow the study to contribute to the development of effective L2 English language development in the UAE. Located within the pragmatic research paradigm, the study involved a mixed methodology and an explanatory sequential design. It consisted of two phases: the first, quantitative phase surveyed 386 students’ metacognitive awareness using the Survey of Reading Strategies (SORS; Mokhtari & Sheorey, 2002) consisting of a 28-item questionnaire. The next, qualitative phase involved a total of 40 participants, who were required to read a selected passage and reflect on their reading and thinking process using a think aloud protocol.
Quantum corrections to vacuum energy sequestering (with monodromy)

description: Field theory models of axion monodromy have been shown to exhibit vacuum energy sequestering as an emergent phenomenon for cancelling radiative corrections to the cosmological constant. We study one loop corrections to this class of models coming from virtual axions using a heat kernel expansion. We find that the structure of the original sequestering proposals is no longer preserved at low energies. Nevertheless, the cancellation of radiative corrections to the cosmological constant remains robust, even with the new structures required by quantum corrections.

description: As the role of cities in addressing climate change has been increasingly recognized over the past two decades, the idea of a low-carbon city becomes a dominant framework to organize urban governance and envision a sustainable urban future. It also becomes a development discourse in the less developed world to guide the ongoing urbanization process. China’s efforts toward building low-carbon cities have been inspiring at first and then obscured by the halt or total failure of famous mega-projects, leading to a conclusion that Chinese low-carbon cities compose merely a strategy of green branding for promoting local economy. This conclusion, however, largely neglects the profound implications of the decarbonization discourse for the dynamics between the central and local governments, which together determine the rules and resources for development practices. The conclusion also hinders the progressive potentials of the decarbonization discourse in terms of introducing new values and norms to urban governance. This dissertation approaches “low-carbon cities” as a part of the decarbonization discourse and employs a discourse-institutional analysis to investigate the relationships between discourse, institutional arrangement, and socio-political resources for development activities. Through an examination of the Shenzhen International Low-Carbon City (SILCC), the dissertation answers three questions: (1) How does the framework of a low-carbon city affect a specific urban development project? (2) What is the role of the state (local/national) in promoting low-carbon development? and (3) What is the influence of the decarbonization discourse on institutions and norms of urban governance? Evidence was gathered during 2014-2017 from three fieldtrips, 39 interviews and the review of government documents and other archives. The dissertation highlights how different levels of government became entangled in developing a local area and how, in doing so, the proponents continuously searched for ways of ‘positioning’ their initiative in discourses that would attract higher level government support, maintain local coalitions, and entice international attention and investment. In this regard, low-carbon cities are a state discursive project. Rather than an established material goal, a low-carbon city is an evolving process in which the decarbonization discourse introduces a new set of values, metrics and governing logics into development practices and redefines the legitimacy and accountability of urban development. Furthermore, the local state leverages the interpretive flexibility within the decarbonization discourse through strategies including carbon labeling, weak carbonization, and carbon exceptionalism. Consequently, the state takes a strategic position to reconfigure the state-society as well as the environment-economy relationships.

description: In Deutschland gibt es fünf Hochschulen, die das Studium der Veterinärmedizin anbieten. Sie stellen zentrale Anlaufstellen für Forschung und Lehre auf diesem interdisziplinären Fachgebiet dar. Eine Vernetzung der Hochschulen zum Zweck von Informationsaustausch und Zugänglichmachung von Open-Access- Publikationen in Form eines Fachrepositoriums existiert gegenwärtig noch nicht. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht die Möglichkeit, ein solches Fachrepositorium aufzubauen. Hierzu wurden die zuständigen Fachreferenten der veterinärmedizinischen Fachbibliotheken befragt, um die Open-Access- Aktivitäten an den Hochschulen in Erfahrung zu bringen. Weiterhin wurden die Strukturen der institutionellen Repositorien untersucht und die Nachweissituation von veterinärmedizinischen Open-Access-Publikationen in verschiedenen Suchdiensten analysiert. Die Open-Access-Aktivitäten an den Fachbibliotheken sind sehr unterschiedlich und bisher finden keine Absprachen dazu statt. Die institutionellen Repositorien der Hochschulen weisen zwar in sehr heterogenem Umfang veterinärmedizinische Open-Access-Publikationen nach, bilden durch die DINI-Zertifizierung jedoch eine einheitliche strukturelle Grundlage. Die Verbreitung von Open-Access-Publikationen in den Suchdiensten ist durch die Interdisziplinarität nur schwer nachzuweisen. Aufgrund der Ergebnisse konnten konkrete Empfehlungen zu Aufbau und Betrieb eines Fachrepositoriums erarbeitet werden. Die zentrale Empfehlung ist die kooperative Nutzung der Kompetenzen und Ressourcen aller fünf Hochschulen für den Aufbau eines Fachrepositoriums. Dies kann eine Vereinheitlichung der Nachweissituation von Open-Access-Publikationen und der Autorenbetreuung ermöglichen. Den herausgearbeiteten Informationen folgend, wird die technische Realisierung des Fachrepositoriums als eigene Instanz neben einem der institutionellen Repositorien empfohlen. Auf diesem Wege kann die Nachhaltigkeit des Fachrepositoriums gesichert und gleichzeitig verschiedene Funktionalitäten realisiert werden. Die positive Einstellung der Fachreferenten in den Bibliotheken in Verbindung mit den technischen Möglichkeiten lassen das Ziel – die Entwicklung eines gemeinsamen Fachrepositoriums – realisierbar erscheinen.

description: We construct an algebra morphism from the elliptic quantum group $E_{τ,η}(sl_2)$ to a certain elliptic version of the ``quantum groups in higher genus'' studied by V. Rubtsov and the first author. This provides an embedding of $E_{τ,η}(sl_2)$ in an algebra ``with central extension''. In particular we construct $L^{\pm}$-operators obeying a dynamical version of the Reshetikhin--Semenov-Tian-Shansky relations. To do that, we construct the factorization of a certain twist of the latter algebra, that automatically satisfies the ``twisted cocycle condition'' of O. Babelon, D. Bernard and E. Billey, and therefore provides a solution of the dynamical Yang-Baxter equation.

Solving Condensed-Matter Ground-State Problems by Semidefinite Relaxations

Subjects: subject: 500 Naturwissenschaften und Mathematik::530 Physik

description: We present a generic approach to the condensed-matter ground-state problem which is complementary to variational techniques and works directly in the thermodynamic limit. Relaxing the ground-state problem, we obtain semidefinite programs (SDP). These can be solved efficiently, yielding strict lower bounds to the ground-state energy and approximations to the few-particle Green’s functions. As the method is applicable for all particle statistics, it represents, in particular, a novel route for the study of strongly correlated fermionic and frustrated spin systems in D>1 spatial dimensions. It is demonstrated for the XXZ model and the Hubbard model of spinless fermions. The results are compared against exact solutions, quantum Monte Carlo calculations, and Anderson bounds, showing the competitiveness of the SDP method.

description: We study the effect of initial correlations on the short-time decoherence of a particle linearly coupled to a bath of harmonic oscillators. We analytically evaluate the attenuation coefficient of a Schroedinger cat state both for a free and a harmonically bound particle, with and without initial thermal correlations between the particle and the bath. While short-time decoherence appears to be independent of the system in the absence of initial correlations, we find on the contrary that, for initial thermal correlations, decoherence becomes system dependent even for times much shorter than the characteristic time of the system. The temperature behavior of this system dependence is discussed.

description: Photovoltaics (PV) offer a solution for the development of sustainable energy sources, relying on the sheer abundance of sunlight: More sunlight falls on the Earth’s surface in one hour than is required by its inhabitants in a year. However, it is imperative to manage the wide distribution of photon energies available in order to generate more cost efficient PV devices because single threshold PV devices are fundamentally limited to a maximum conversion efficiency, the Shockley-Queisser (SQ) limit. Recent progress has enabled the production of c-Si cells with efficiencies as high as 25%,1 close to the limiting efficiency of ∼30%. But these cells are rather expensive, and ultimately the cost of energy is determined by the ratio of system cost and efficiency of the PV device. A strategy to radically decrease this ratio is to circumvent the SQ limit in cheaper, second generation PV devices. One promising approach is the use of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H), where film thicknesses on the order of several 100nm are sufficient. Unfortunately, the optical threshold of a-Si:H is rather high (1.7-1.8 eV) and the material suffers from light-induced degradation. Thinner absorber layers in a-Si:H devices are generally more stable than thicker films due to the better charge carrier extraction, but at the expense of reduced conversion efficiencies, especially in the red part of the solar spectrum (absorption losses). Hence for higher bandgap materials, which includes a-Si as well as organic and dye-sensitized cells, the major loss mechanism is the inability to harvest low energy photons.

description: We first exhibit in the commutative case the simple algebraic relations between the algebra of functions on a manifold and its infinitesimal length element $ds$. Its unitary representations correspond to Riemannian metrics and Spin structure while $ds$ is the Dirac propagator $ds = \ts \!\!$---$\!\! \ts = D^{-1}$ where $D$ is the Dirac operator. We extend these simple relations to the non commutative case using Tomita's involution $J$. We then write a spectral action, the trace of a function of the length element in Planck units, which when applied to the non commutative geometry of the Standard Model will be shown (in a joint work with Ali Chamseddine) to give the SM Lagrangian coupled to gravity. The internal fluctuations of the non commutative geometry are trivial in the commutative case but yield the full bosonic sector of SM with all correct quantum numbers in the slightly non commutative case. The group of local gauge transformations appears spontaneously as a normal subgroup of the diffeomorphism group.

description: Sufficiently large electric current applied to metallic nanostructures can bring them far out-of-equilibrium, resulting in non-Ohmic behaviors characterized by current-dependent resistance. We experimentally demonstrate a linear dependence of resistance on current in microscopic thin-film metallic wires at cryogenic temperatures, and show that our results are inconsistent with common non-Ohmic mechanisms such as Joule heating. As the temperature is increased, the linear dependence becomes smoothed out, resulting in the crossover to behaviors consistent with Joule heating. A plausible explanation for the observed behaviors is the strongly non-equilibrium distribution of phonons generated by the current. Analysis based on this interpretation suggests that the observed anomalous current-dependent resistance can provide information about phonon transport and electron-phonon interaction at nanoscale. The ability to control the properties of phonons generated by current can lead to new routes for the optimization of thermal properties of electronic nanodevices.

description: Regulations to protect Brazil's rainforest have moved in recent years from broad global development strategies to certain consideration of local specifics. One expression for this change is the upcoming term of environmental justice as new paradigm in politics and social sciences. In opposite to the sustainable development concept, environmental justice emerged on the basement of municipality and therefore highlights social and cultural questions more than sustainable development does. In the present case study, existing discourses on an environmental protected island in Brazil's Amazon has been used as an example to discover discourses of environmental inequality pattern. Due to the fact, that environmental legislature on the island still fails to answer this problem set and pressing social problems remain, main discourse differences are assumed to have it in it to reveal most pressing unresolved issues as perceived by the involved stakeholders. Q Methodology and free unstructured participant observation have been used within the frame of Elvers’s process related research paradigm to survey traceable and comparable data of environmental problem perception. This tool could provide evidence for three main problems that could be outlined as main causes of environmental inequality in the field: Instead of waste problems, power inequality of migrants versus native population on the island and distance related knowledge divide emerging in the shape of cultural and educational differences, both framed by a landownership pattern created by illegal land purchase. As consequence, misdirection of institutional agents, failure of a development plan and low activity of local (native) civil society lead to failure of well- intended environmental legislature.

description: This paper reviews the most recent ARPES results on the cuprate superconductors and their insulating parent and sister compounds, with the purpose of providing an updated summary of the extensive literature in this field. The low energy excitations are discussed with emphasis on some of the most relevant issues, such as the Fermi surface and remnant Fermi surface, the superconducting gap, the pseudogap and d-wave-like dispersion, evidence of electronic inhomogeneity and nano-scale phase separation, the emergence of coherent quasiparticles through the superconducting transition, and many-body effects in the one-particle spectral function due to the interaction of the charge with magnetic and/or lattice degrees of freedom. The first part of the paper introduces photoemission spectroscopy in the context of strongly interacting systems, along with an update on the state-of-the-art instrumentation. The second part provides a brief overview of the scientific issues relevant to the investigation of the low energy electronic structure by ARPES. The rest of the paper is devoted to the review of experimental results from the cuprates and the discussion is organized along conceptual lines: normal-state electronic structure, interlayer interaction, superconducting gap, coherent superconducting peak, pseudogap, electron self energy and collective modes. Within each topic, ARPES data from the various copper oxides are presented.

Anti-Poverty Programs, Social Conflict, and Economic Thought in Colombia and the United States, 1948-1980

description: This dissertation examines postwar anti-poverty programs in order to understand the Latin American roots of US social policy, the origins of neoliberalism, and the rise of economists as public intellectuals. By following veterans of the New Deal and Marshall Plan through Colombian reform projects of the 1950s and 1960s and back to the United States in the era of the Great Society, it suggests that one way of studying the route from the 1930s to the 1960s in the United States is by traveling through Latin America. Conversely, one way of understanding the history of economic development is by analyzing its relation to First-World programs for economic recovery and redistribution. The dissertation further illuminates the role of midcentury policymaking in popularizing what became neoliberal practices after 1980, most importantly those of state decentralization, gentrification, and public-private partnership. Finally, midcentury social programs provide a context in which to study the emergence of economics as an independent discipline in Latin America, economists' strategies of social ascent, and the popularization of economic reasoning as a persuasive form of public argument. The project is a social history of economic thought, in which reform projects and the conflicts surrounding them provide the context for studying ideas. It is simultaneously a transnational history of social policy, exposing lines of mutual influence between the United States and Latin America.

description: We consider a general model, describing a quantum impurity with degenerate energy levels, interacting with a gas of itinerant electrons, derive general scaling equation for the model, and analyse the connection between its particular forms and the symmetry of interaction. On the basis of this analysis we write down scaling equations for the Hamiltonians which are the direct products of $su(3)$ Lie algebras and have either $SU(2)\times U(1)$ or $SU(2)$ symmetry. We also put into a new context anisotropic Coqblin -- Schrieffer models proposed by us earlier.

description: This thesis describes improvements to our protein loop structure prediction algorithm and use of this algorithm to inform a computational investigation of anti-HIV antibodies. First, in Section I, we outline improvements to the Protein Local Optimization Program ("Plop") that allow us to reliably restore long loops containing secondary structure elements, and predict nativelike conformations for loops whose surroundings deviate from the native crystal structure context. Shifting to focus exclusively on antibody hypervariable loop prediction, we also benchmark our results in the community-wide Second Antibody Modeling Assessment. Plop can now be reliably deployed as a tool for understanding important biological systems. In Section II, we start from a system of interest - broadly neutralizing antibodies against HIV-1 - with the long-term goal of computationally identifying more potent VRC01-class anti-HIV antibodies. We show proof of concept results for predicting relative binding affinity upon mutation using free energy perturbation (FEP) simulations for the VRC01 antibody binding to glycoprotein gp120. Using the protocols developed in Section I, we provide case studies for using Plop to understand key FEP results and guide future experiments.

description: The engineering of topological non-trivial states of matter, using cold atoms, has made great progress in the last decade. Driven by experimental successes, it has become of major interest in the cold atom community. In this work we investigate the time-reversal invariant Hofstadter model with an additional confining potential. By calculating a local spin Chern marker we find that topologically non-trivial phases can be observed in all considered trap geometries. This holds also for spin-orbit coupled fermions, where the model exhibits a quantum spin Hall regime at half filling. Using dynamical mean-field theory, we find that interactions compete against the confining potential and induce a topological phase transition depending on the filling of the system. Strong interactions furthermore yield a magnetic edge, which is localized through the interplay of the density distribution and the underlying topological band structure.

description: We provide an unified approach of results of L. Dor on the complementation of the range, and of D. Alspach on the nearness from isometries, of small into isomorphisms of L1. We introduce the notion of small subspace of L1 and show lifting theorems for operators between quotients of L1 by small subspaces. We construct a subspace of L1 which shows that extension of isometries from subspaces of L1 to the whole space are no longer true for isomorphisms, and that nearly isometric isomorphisms from subspaces of L1 into L1 need not be near from any isometry.

description:
The rental building sector faces challenges due to the so-called landlord-tenant dilemma. This issue arises because landlords have no direct financial benefits from energy efficiency retrofits if the tenant pays the energy bill. On the other hand, tenants have little motivation to save energy if the landlord covers this cost. The primary landlord-tenant dilemma results from rent control limiting rent levels in existing tenancies. The secondary dilemma is due to the undervaluation of energy cost savings in the new rental market. Tenancy law, through the allocation system for energy and retrofit costs, can either address or worsen these issues. This paper develops an analytical model to examine how efficiently various allocation systems incentivize retrofits and energy conservation and how they compare in terms of improving the welfare of both landlords and tenants. I analyze several systems: a free market model without and with rent control, the current German system, a slight variation of the German system, the Swedish inclusive rent system, a consumption-based partially inclusive rent system, and a novel demand-based partially inclusive rent system. The German status quo could theoretically offer optimal incentives if it were ideally set up; however, it interacts in a complex way with other aspects of German tenancy law, hindering optimal design. In contrast, the demand-based partially inclusive rent system is more likely to set efficient incentives consistently but would require substantial reforms in tenancy law.

description: We review our recent studies on the Kondo effect in the tunneling phenomena through quantum dot systems. Numerical methods to calculate reliable tunneling conductance are developed. In the first place, a case in which electrons of odd number occupy the dot is studied, and experimental results are analyzed based on the calculated result. Tunneling anomaly in the even-number-electron occupation case, which is recently observed in experiment and is ascribed to the Kondo effect in the spin singlet-triplet cross over transition region, is also examined theoretically.

description: Transnational public-private partnerships have become a popular theme in International Relations (IR) research. Such partnerships constitute a hybrid type of governance, in which non-state actors co-govern along with state actors for the provision of public goods, and thereby adopt governance functions that have formerly been the sole authority of sovereign states. Their recent proliferation is an expression of the contemporary reconfiguration of authority in world politics that poses essential questions on the effectiveness and the legitimacy of global governance. Significant issues are at stake concerning whether transnational public-private partnerships can in fact deliver public goods in an effective and legitimate way. This article surveys the literature with regard to three central issues: It addresses the questions why transnational public-private partnerships emerge, under which conditions they are effective, and under which conditions they are legitimate governance instruments. The article demonstrates that, at present, research on transnational public-private partnerships is theoretically under-informed and suffers from poor research designs. As is pointed out in the course of the article, future research on transnational public-private partnerships could benefit from well-known IR theories on international institutions, from compliance theories in particular. Applying these IR theories to partnerships opens up the possibility for the systematic comparative research that is necessary to obtain conclusive knowledge about transnational public-private partnerships.
