description: In this work, we study the symmetries of a Lorentz violating bipartite-Finsler spacetime. By using the Finslerian Killing equation for the bipartite-Finsler metric, we analyze how the anisotropy of the bipartite spacetime modifies the local Lorentz symmetries. The symmetries of the Finsler metric allow us to obtain the bipartite algebra and interpreted it as a deformed Lorentz algebra. Causality effects driven by the particle modified dispersion relations are investigated upon Minkowski and the Schwarzschild spacetimes. The background bipartite tensor yields to superluminal velocities and modifies the effective gravitational potential.

 Pseudoliogenys Moser 1919: 358. Type species: Pseudoliogenys flavida Moser by monotypy.
 Diagnosis and Classification. The following characters will separate Pseudoliogenys from all other New World Melolonthinae and are used to place the genus in the tribe Diplotaxini. Clypeal apex with two upturned teeth projecting at a 90° angle from surface of clypeus (not generally characteristic of Pachydemini); labrum not visible in dorsal view, globular, located below the clypeus (characteristic of Diplotaxini, Pachydemini, Macrodactylini, and some other tribes); mouthparts greatly reduced, except for maxillary palps; antenna with 8–9 antennomeres (antennomeres amorphous and sometimes fused), club with three antennomeres (many Pachydemini have more than three antennomeres in the club); anterior pronotal margin thickened medially but without translucent membrane; prosternal anterior margin sinuous, with lobed projections covering inside edge of eyes and labium (variations of this structure are also present in some Liogenys species); abdominal sutures distinct; abdominal segments 1–4 approximately equal in length, not constricted medially (greatly constricted medially in many Pachydemini), abdominal segment 5 twice as long as other individual segments; propygidium and fifth tergite forming a sclerotized ring, without any trace of a suture (key characteristic of Diplotaxini); metafemora widened, swollen; metatibiae expanded towards apex and with a vestigial and a complete, strong carina at middle (expanded metafemora and metatibiae are present in some Afrotropical and Neotropical Pachydemini; these characters clearly distinguish Pseudoliogenys from Liogenys); metatibial spurs located below the tarsal articulation so that the tarsomeres pass over them, with the upper spur located adjacent to the tarsal articulation; tarsal claws cleft in males and simple in females, all tarsal claws paired; parameres short.
 Etymology. Pseudoliogenys was named for its similarities with Liogenys, which means “smooth jaw” based on the Greek “lio” (smooth) and “genys” (jaw). Liogenys is feminine based on the gender of the Greek word for jaw; by extension, Pseudoliogenys is also feminine. Pseudoliogenys has been incorrectly treated as masculine by some authors (Moser 1919; Martínez 1975; Evans 2003; Evans and Smith 2009), but was previously correctly emended as feminine by Blackwelder (1944).

Swimming activities and costs in free-living coral reef wrasses

description: Estimates of the energetic costs associated with locomotion in free-living animals are difficult to find for aquatic animals. This is largely due to the technical difficulties of applying methods commonly used for air-breathing terrestrial taxa (e.g. doubly-labelled water) to aquatic environments. Consequently, there is a paucity of information on the activity costs of free-living fishes. Preliminary indications are that swimming can be a significant energetic expense for fishes. Swimming may therefore affect the allocation of metabolic energy to other fundamental functions such as growth, reproduction and cellular maintenance and thus is expected to be significant target for natural selection. However, without quantitative information on either the time or energy budgets associated with field swimming behaviours, we are unable to explore this further. In this study I observed both similarities and differences in the swimming activity during foraging of three species of coral reef wrasses. Regardless if measured in terms of time or frequency of events, all three species allocated most of their time to steady swimming (75-98% of total time). Searching and feeding were also prominent behaviours, with the extent varying across species with different feeding ecologies (benthic macrocarnivore, benthic microcarnivore and planktivore). Antagonism also varied across and within species, possibly as a consequence of the varying territoriality among species. When combined with the observed differences in field swimming speeds among species, it appears that wrasses vary their activity budgets according to their particularly trophic ecology and social structure. Combining the field observations of swimming behaviour with lab-based measures of the cost of swimming yielded estimates of the aerobic costs associated with locomotor activity by these wrasses. Such estimates of activity cost varied approximately seven-fold across species. Comparing our results with the limited current data available for field activity costs in other fishes, Stethojulis bandanensis appears to have the highest mass-specific activity cost reported for a fish to date. More broadly, it appears that my estimates for these ectothermic species are well below those for locomotor activity costs calculated for a range of endothermic taxa. Estimating and validating field activity costs in free-living fishes is still a challenge. Moreover, placing these estimates of activity cost within a broader context of field energetics is hindered by a lack of consistency in how values are reported in the literature. A convention on a common currency of costs would greatly facilitate future comparative analyses of field energetics, both within and across taxa from aquatic and terrestrial realms.

description: Purpose: We developed and evaluated in a randomized controlled trial a computerized speechreading training program to determine (a) whether it is possible to train speechreading in deaf children and (b) whether speechreading training results in improvements in phonological and reading skills. Previous studies indicate a relationship between speechreading and reading skill and further suggest this relationship may be mediated by improved phonological representations. This is important since many deaf children find learning to read to be very challenging.Method: Sixty-six deaf 5- to 7-year-olds were randomized into speechreading and maths training arms. Each training program was composed of a 10-min sessions a day, 4 days a week for 12 weeks. Children were assessed on a battery of language and literacy measures before training, immediately after training, and 3 months and 11 months after training.Results: We found no significant benefits for participants who completed the speechreading training, compared to those who completed the maths training, on the speechreading primary outcome measure. However, significantly greater gains were observed in the speechreading training group on one of the secondary measures of speechreading. There was also some evidence of beneficial effects of the speechreading training on phonological representations; however, these effects were weaker. No benefits were seen to word reading.Conclusions: Speechreading skill is trainable in deaf children. However, to support early reading, training may need to be longer or embedded in a broader literacy program. Nevertheless, a training tool that can improve speechreading is likely to be of great interest to professionals working with deaf children.

description: This article presents the results of a systematic investigation on the identification of minerals used in lacquers. Micro-Raman combined with Infrared spectroscopy can serve as a highly specific and complementary micro-destructive technique for successfully identifying the molecular structure of the minerals. Both 532-nm and 785-nm laser radiations were used to compare the spectral information and to clarify which wavelength was suited to balance the signal to noise ratio. The spectra of fourteen minerals were analyzed and compared in detail, which can provide support for the research on the developmental changes of lacquer materials in different historical periods by establishing an identification method.

description: We applied a generalized scalar-vector-tensor Brans Dicke gravity model to study canonical quantization of an anisotropic Bianchi I cosmological model. Regarding an anisotropic Harmonic Oscillator potential we show that the corresponding Wheeler de Witt wave functional of the system is described by Hermit polynomials. We obtained a quantization condition on the ADM mass of the cosmological system which raises versus the quantum numbers of the Hermit polynomials. Our calculations show that the inflationary expansion of the universe can be originate from the big bang with no naked singularity due to the uncertainty principle.

description: A first-order `BPS' equation is obtained for 1/8 supersymmetric intersections of soliton-membranes (lumps) of supersymmetric (4+1)-dimensional massless sigma models, and a special non-singular solution is found that preserves 1/4 supersymmetry. For 4-dimensional hyper-Kähler target spaces ($HK_4$) the BPS equation is shown to be the low-energy limit of the equation for a Cayley-calibrated 4-surface in $\bE^4\times HK_4$. Similar first-order equations are found for stationary intersections of Q-lump-membranes of the massive sigma model, but now generic solutions preserve either 1/8 supersymmetry or no supersymmetry, depending on the time orientation.

description: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that accounts for 60-80% of dementia cases, especially in people over 65 years. More than 36 million people had AD or related dementias in 2010, and more than ~116 million will be diagnosed by 2050. Over the last 30 years, our group has studied the largest multigenerational extended pedigree from the Paisa genetic isolate in which the p.Glu280Ala (E280A) fully penetrant mutation in the Presenilin-1 (PSEN1) gene causes early-onset familial AD (fAD). One of the most intriguing aspects of this pedigree is the broad spectrum of the AD age of onset (ADAOO) that ranges from the earliest 30s to the 80s, and has an average of 48 years. It is hypothesised that genetic variants of major effect (i.e., mutations) modify ADAOO in individuals from this pedigree suffering from early-onset fAD or sporadic AD (sAD). In this thesis, the problem of the ADAOO high variability in this pedigree is tackled by scrutinising functional variants distributed through the whole exomes of individuals with fAD and sAD. Individuals with these forms of AD are descendants from the original founder of the Paisa pedigree and exhibit an extreme phenotype based on the ADAOO for this population. Quality control, filtering, and functional annotation were applied prior to performing association analysis using the multi-locus linear mixed-effects model and collapsing methods to identify common and rare ADAOO modifiers, respectively. Using data mining and predictive modelling tools, a clinical diagnostic tool with potential applications in the clinical setting is developed to predict disease status (early-onset versus late-onset) based on demographic and genetic information. The set of genes harbouring the identified ADAOO modifier variants are involved in physiopathology of AD including neuron apoptosis and apoptotic processes, neurogenesis, dopamine receptor signalling, Wnt protein secretion, the inflammatory processes linked to AD, the negative regulation of glutamergic synaptic transmission, the positive regulation of apoptosis, memory processes, and could be pivotal for prediction, follow-up and eventually as therapeutical targets of AD.

description: We study left-invariant Killing $k$-forms on simply connected $2$-step nilpotent Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric. For $k=2,3$, we show that every left-invariant Killing $k$-form is a sum of Killing forms on the factors of the de Rham decomposition. Moreover, on each irreducible factor, non-zero Killing $2$-forms define (after some modification) a bi-invariant orthogonal complex structure and non-zero Killing $3$-forms arise only if the Riemannian Lie group is naturally reductive when viewed as a homogeneous space under the action of its isometry group. In both cases, $k=2$ or $k=3$, we show that the space of Killing $k$-forms of an irreducible Riemannian 2-step nilpotent Lie group is at most one-dimensional.

description: The two approaches to compute perturbations in warm inflation are examined. It is shown that both approaches lead to different expressions for the amplitude of the primordial spectrum, with a difference between them of $Υ/(4H)$ at leading order, where $Υ$ is the dissipation coefficient. In terms of observables, this discrepancy can lead to the spectral index differing by up to order $\mathcal{O}(10^{-3})$, which is within precision demands for current CMB data. Thus, it is important to resolve this ambiguity to have reliable predictions from warm inflation. For this we prove the extent of this discrepancies by deriving a formula for the spectral index and the tensor-to-scalar ratio in each approach. In doing so, we find disparities to be more noticeable in a regime where dissipation is comparable with the expansion rate, which is a very important regime from a phenomenological point of view. To determine the extent of the discrepancy, several cases are examined, including quadratic, quartic and hybrid potentials with quadratic and $T-$dependent dissipative coefficients. The origin of the discrepancy is found to be due to the approximation performed in one of the methods, which underestimates the variation of the momentum perturbation with expansion. Once this is corrected, both approaches are then in agreement.

description: We study the deterministic entanglement of a pair of neutral atoms trapped in an optical lattice by coupling to excited-state molecular hyperfine potentials. Information can be encoded in the ground-state hyperfine levels and processed by bringing atoms together pair-wise to perform quantum logical operations through induced electric dipole-dipole interactions. The possibility of executing both diagonal and exchange type entangling gates is demonstrated for two three-level atoms and a figure of merit is derived for the fidelity of entanglement. The fidelity for executing a CPHASE gate is calculated for two 87Rb atoms, including hyperfine structure and finite atomic localization. The main source of decoherence is spontaneous emission, which can be minimized for interaction times fast compared to the scattering rate and for sufficiently separated atomic wavepackets. Additionally, coherent couplings to states outside the logical basis can be constrained by the state dependent trapping potential.

description: We report on the first Skyrme-Hartree-Fock calculations with the tilted-axis cranking in the context of magnetic rotation. The mean field symmetries, differences between phenomenological and self-consistent methods and the generation of shears-like structures in the mean field are discussed. Significant role of the time-odd spin-spin effective interaction is pointed out. We reproduce the shears mechanism, but quantitative agreement with experiment is rather poor. It may have to do with too large core polarization, lack of pairing correlations or properties of the Skyrme force.

Decentralization and Hierarchical Organization for Control of Adaptive and Cognitive Behavior in Autonomous Robots

description: Cognition—understood as a form of planning ahead—complements adaptive behavior. It leverages knowledge about performing a specific behavior into a novel context while minimizing any harm to the behaving system itself as it is using an internal simulation to predict possible outcomes. In this thesis, I propose a minimal cognitive system that integrates these two kinds of processes in one control system for a six-legged robot. On the one hand, adaptive behavior emerges from interaction of simple local control modules which allows the system to react quickly when facing disturbances. Detailed experimental findings in insects suggests that this evolved flexibility results from a hierarchical and decentralized architecture. While a lower control level coordinates muscle activation patterns and joint movements on a short timescale, a higher level handles action selection on longer timescales. On the other hand, following a bottom-up approach this is extended towards a cognitive system that is able to invent new behaviors and to plan ahead. Using a grounded internal body model planning is realized as a form of internal simulation of possible actions which are applied out of their original context. Exploiting the decentralized architecture this cognitive expansion allows to test and predict properties of newly invented behaviors, while the body is decoupled from the control system. The thesis introduces the minimal cognitive system as it is applied on the robot Hector in a climbing task. It consecutively introduces the underlying control characteristics and relates these to findings from biology and neuroscience. First, hierarchical organization can be found in many animals and it structures control into parsimonious modules. Second, this is complemented by research on stick insects in particular which offers an even more detailed neuronal and behavioral level for analysis. This emphasizes decentralization of control structures and the importance of an embodied perspective which integrates bodily properties into the concurrent control process exploiting, for example, elasticities of muscles for simplifying the control problem. Third, internal representations are introduced in a bottom-up manner as grounded internal models—realized as recurrent neural networks—that are at first considered in the context of serving a specific behavior. Fourth, as a consequence, cognitive processing is realized as recruitment of the already existing flexible internal models in an internal simulation. The underlying architecture is applied on the hexapod robot Hector and analyzed in detail in simulation. Furthermore, learning is considered for this approach.

description: Spins confined in quantum dots are considered as a promising platform for quantum information processing. While many advanced quantum operations have been demonstrated, experimental as well as theoretical efforts are now focusing on the development of scalable spin quantum bit architectures. One particularly promising method relies on the coupling of spin quantum bits to microwave cavity photons. This would enable the coupling of distant spins via the exchange of virtual photons for two qubit gate applications, which still remains to be demonstrated with spin qubits. Here, we use a circuit QED spin-photon interface to drive a single electronic spin in a carbon nanotube based double quantum dot using cavity photons. The microwave spectroscopy allows us to identify an electrically controlled spin transition with a decoherence rate which can be tuned to be as low as $250kHz$. We show that this value is consistent with the expected hyperfine coupling in carbon nanotubes. These coherence properties, which can be attributed to the use of pristine carbon nanotubes stapled inside the cavity, should enable coherent spin-spin interaction via cavity photons and compare favourably to the ones recently demonstrated in Si-based circuit QED experiments.

description: We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the separability of tripartite three mode Gaussian states, that is easy to check for any such state. We give a classification of the separability properties of those systems and show how to determine for any state to which class it belongs. We show that there exist genuinely tripartite bound entangled states and point out how to construct and prepare such states.

description: We provide first explicite examples of quantum deformations of D=4 conformal algebra with mass-like deformation parameters, in applications to quantum gravity effects related with Planck mass. It is shown that one of the classical $r$-matrices defined on the Borel subalgebra of $sl(4)$ with $o(4,2)$ reality conditions describes the light-cone $κ$-deformation of D=4 Poincaré algebra. We embed this deformation into the three-parameter family of generalized $κ$-deformations, with $r$-matrices depending additionally on the dilatation generator. Using the extended Jordanian twists framework we describe these deformations in the form of noncocommutative Hopf algebra. We describe also another four-parameter class of generalized $κ$-deformations, which is obtained by continuous deformation of distinguished $κ$-deformation of D=4 Weyl algebra, called here the standard $κ$-deformation of Weyl algebra.

description: Density-estimation likelihood-free inference (DELFI) has recently been proposed as an efficient method for simulation-based cosmological parameter inference. Compared to the standard likelihood-based Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach, DELFI has several advantages: it is highly parallelizable, there is no need to assume a possibly incorrect functional form for the likelihood and complicated effects (e.g the mask and detector systematics) are easier to handle with forward models. In light of this, we present two DELFI pipelines to perform weak lensing parameter inference with lognormal realizations of the tomographic shear field -- using the C_l summary statistic. The first pipeline accounts for the non-Gaussianities of the shear field, intrinsic alignments and photometric-redshift error. We validate that it is accurate enough for Stage III experiments and estimate that O(1000) simulations are needed to perform inference on Stage IV data. By comparing the second DELFI pipeline, which makes no assumption about the functional form of the likelihood, with the standard MCMC approach, which assumes a Gaussian likelihood, we test the impact of the Gaussian likelihood approximation in the MCMC analysis. We find it has a negligible impact on Stage IV parameter constraints. Our pipeline is a step towards seamlessly propagating all data-processing, instrumental, theoretical and astrophysical systematics through to the final parameter constraints.

description: The presence and detectability of coherent radio emission from compact binary mergers (containing at least one neutron star) remains poorly constrained due to large uncertainties in the models. These compact binary mergers may initially be detected as Short Gamma-ray Bursts (SGRBs) or via their gravitational wave emission. Several radio facilities have developed rapid response modes enabling them to trigger on these events and search for this emission. For this paper, we constrain this coherent radio emission using the deepest available constraints for GRB 150424A, which were obtained via a triggered observation with the Murchison Widefield Array. We then expand this analysis to determine the properties of magnetar merger remnants that may be formed via a general population of binary neutron star mergers. Our results demonstrate that many of the potential coherent emission mechanisms that have been proposed for such events can be detected or very tightly constrained by the complementary strategies used by the current generation of low-frequency radio telescopes.

description: GeV beams of light ions and electrons are used for creating a high flux of real and virtual photons, with which some problems in Nuclear Astrophysics are studied. GeV 8B beams are used to study the Coulomb dissociation of 8B and thus the 7Be(p,gamma)8B reaction. This reaction is one of the major source of uncertainties in estimating the 8B solar neutrino flux and a critical input for calculating the 8B Solar neutrino flux. The Coulomb dissociation of 8B appears to provide a viable method for measuring the 7Be(p,gamma)8B reaction rate, with a weighted average of the RIKEN1, RIKEN2, GSI1 and MSU published results of S17(0) = 18.9 +/- 1.0 eV-b. This result however does not include a theoretical error estimated to be +/- 10 %. GeV electron beams on the other hand, are used to create a high flux of real and virtual photons at TUNL-HIGS and MIT-Bates, respectively, and we discuss two new proposals to study the 12C(alpha,gamma)16O reaction with real and virtual photons. The 12C(alpha,gamma)16O reaction is essential for understanding Type II and Type Ia supernova. It is concluded that virtual and real photons produced by GeV light ions and electron beams are useful for studying some problems in Nuclear Astrophysics.
