description: We show that any group that is hyperbolic relative to virtually nilpotent subgroups, and does not admit peripheral splittings, contains a quasi-isometrically embedded copy of the hyperbolic plane. In natural situations, the specific embeddings we find remain quasi-isometric embeddings when composed with the inclusion map from the Cayley graph to the coned-off graph, as well as when composed with the quotient map to "almost every" peripheral (Dehn) filling. We apply our theorem to study the same question for fundamental groups of 3-manifolds. The key idea is to study quantitative geometric properties of the boundaries of relatively hyperbolic groups, such as linear connectedness. In particular, we prove a new existence result for quasi-arcs that avoid obstacles.

Socio-Economic Mine Closure (SEMC) framework : a comprehensive approach for addressing the socio-economic challenges of mine closure
Creators: name: Xavier, André Moura
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: This thesis seeks to investigate the initiatives that address the socio-economic implications of mine closure that have been implemented by three mining companies which are located in Mongolia, Argentina and Canada. It further addresses the perceptions of stakeholders, specifically community members, local government representatives and mining company employees regarding the initiatives that have been implemented by three mining companies. Additionally, the research examines six mining industry-related frameworks/guidelines, and explores the ways in which these documents interpret the socio-economics of mine closure. Finally, this thesis introduces and evaluates the Socio-Economic Mine Closure (SEMC) Framework, which was originally developed as part of this PhD investigation. There are 10 elements in the Framework: Policy, Presence, Participation, Planning, Performance, Promotion, Perseverance, Patience, Passion, and Personality. The SEMC Framework is assessed in multiple ways: a) against the current literature on mine closure; b) through an online survey in which 151 experts were invited to provide feedback on the elements and sub-element constituents of the Framework and c) by its utility in constructing the fieldwork survey and the feedback of survey participants indicating the appropriateness of the framework. The study indicates that it would be relevant, timely and appropriate for the mining industry to introduce, discuss and adopt the proposed SEMC Framework. The case study analyses, all of which employed interviews, group sessions, and distribution of survey material as part of their methodological approaches, reveal that each case has unique characteristics and that all are context-based. The case studies also indicate that all three situations reveal the presence of some common issues. For instance, the results of the study suggest that, in all three cases, communication levels need to be improved and augmented. An important finding of the overall study concerns the element Personality within the SEMC Framework. Although in both the online survey and in the survey distributed to study participants, this element was ranked as one of low importance, through the interviews, group sessions and researcher observations it became clear that the Personality of the company community liaison does play a significant role in maintaining and fostering relationships between mining companies and local stakeholders.
The targum (1869:Oct.)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1869

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)

description: The total angular momentum associated with the edge mass current flowing at the boundary in the superfluid $^3$He A-phase confined in a disk is proved to be $L=N\hbar/2$, consisting of $L^{\rm MJ}=N\hbar$ from the Majorana quasi-particles (QPs) and $L^{\rm cont}=-N\hbar/2$ from the continuum state. We show it based on an analytic solution of the chiral order parameter for quasi-classical Eilenberger equation. Important analytic expressions are obtained for mass current, angular momentum, and density of states (DOS). Notably the DOS of the Majorana QPs is exactly $N_0/2$ ($N_0$: normal state DOS) responsible for the factor 2 difference between $L^{\rm MJ}$ and $L^{\rm cont}$. The current decreases as $E^{-3}$ against the energy $E$, and $L(T) \propto -T^2$. This analytic solution is fully backed up by numerically solving the Eilenberger equation. We touch on the so-called intrinsic angular momentum problem.

description: All-electrical control of spin transport in nanostructures has been the central interest and chal- lenge of spin physics and spintronics. Here we demonstrate on-chip spin polarizing/filtering actions by driving the gate-defined one dimensional (1D) conductor, one of the simplest geometries for integrated quantum devices, away from the conventional Ohmic regime. Direct measurement of the spin polarization of the emitted current was performed when the momentum degeneracy was lifted, wherein both the 1D polarizer for spin injection and the analyzer for spin detection were demonstrated. The results showed that a configuration of gates and applied voltages can give rise to a tunable spin polarization, which has implications for the development of spintronic devices and future quantum information processing.

This map is not intended to be used for selecting individual sites. Its purpose is to inform land-use planners, government officials, and the public in a general way about geologic bedrock conditions that affect the selection of sites for various purposes. The properties of thick soils may supercede those of the underlying bedrock and should be considered on a site-to-site basis. At any site, it is important to understand the characteristics of both the soils and the underlying rock.

description: We study algebraic structures of certain submonoids of the monoid of homology cylinders over a surface and the homology cobordism groups, using Reidemeister torsion with non-commutative coefficients. The submonoids consist of ones whose natural inclusion maps from the boundary surfaces induce isomorphisms on higher solvable quotients of the fundamental groups. We show that for a surface whose first Betti number is positive, the homology cobordism groups are other enlargements of the mapping class group of the surface than that of ordinary homology cylinders. Furthermore we show that for a surface with boundary whose first Betti number is positive, the submonoids consisting of irreducible ones as 3-manifolds trivially acting on the solvable quotients of the surface group are not finitely generated.

Einweisungen sind Schulungen, die allen Anwendern Informationen zur sicheren
Anwendung des Medizinproduktes vermitteln.
„Die Vollständigkeit und Qualität von Einweisungen in Medizinprodukte ist wesentlich für die
Patientensicherheit und deren Sicherstellung ist ein Muss. Dies erfordert Anstrengungen von Betreibern, Herstellern und Anwendern. Die Qualität der Einweisungen muss durch interne Audits
und Aufsichtsinstitutionen überwacht und unterstützt werden.
Gesetzgebende sollten im nationalen Medizinproduktrecht festlegen, dass die Informationen zur
sicheren Anwendung von Medizinprodukten in Einweisungen vermittelt werden müssen.
Die Hersteller müssen ein Einweisungskonzept entwickeln und validieren, damit die Einweisung
effektiv (inhaltlich richtig, vollständig und wirksam) erfolgen kann und die Anwender über die
Risiken (Restrisiken) wirksam informiert werden. Das Einweisungskonzept muss didaktisch an die
einzuweisenden Personenkreise angepasst sein.
Die vom Hersteller befugte Person zur Einweisung (zum Beispiel Medizinprodukteberater) ist verpflichtet, die beauftragten Personen nach dem Einweisungskonzept einzuweisen.
Die Betreiber einer Gesundheitseinrichtung müssen die notwendigen Ressourcen für Einweisungen zur Verfügung stellen, d.h. sie müssen innerbetrieblich den Einweisungsprozess organisatorisch festlegen, verantwortliche und beauftragte Personen benennen und das Dokumentationssystem für durchgeführte Einweisungen auswählen. Betreiber von Medizinprodukten haben die Aufgabe, für eine nachhaltige Organisationsstruktur zur Umsetzung der Einweisungsverpflichtung gemäß Medizinproduktebetreiberverordnung (MPBetreibV) Sorge zu tragen.
Alle Anwender müssen nach der Einweisung das Medizinprodukt sicher, gemäß seiner Zweckbestimmung, anwenden können. Die Einweisung ersetzt kein Training an den Medizinprodukten, daher sollten ausreichend Ressourcen für Trainings und wiederkehrende Einweisungen berücksichtigt werden.
Einweisungen binden nennenswerte Ressourcen der Gesundheitseinrichtungen. Der Einweisungsaufwand muss deshalb bei der Gestaltung der Vergütungssysteme im Gesundheitswesen berücksichtigt werden.
Die Handlungsempfehlung bietet einen standardisierten Einweisungsprozess und unterstützt bei
der regelkonformen Umsetzung. Sie setzt sich nicht mit Methodik und Didaktik der Einweisungen
auseinander.

description: The path integral representation for the Renyi entanglement entropies of integer index n implies these information measures define operator correlation functions in QFT. We analyze whether the limit $n\rightarrow 1$, corresponding to the entanglement entropy, can also be represented in terms of a path integral with insertions on the region's boundary, at first order in $n-1$. This conjecture has been used in the literature in several occasions, and specially in an attempt to prove the Ryu-Takayanagi holographic entanglement entropy formula. We show it leads to conditional positivity of the entropy correlation matrices, which is equivalent to an infinite series of polynomial inequalities for the entropies in QFT or the areas of minimal surfaces representing the entanglement entropy in the AdS-CFT context. We check these inequalities in several examples. No counterexample is found in the few known exact results for the entanglement entropy in QFT. The inequalities are also remarkable satisfied for several classes of minimal surfaces but we find counterexamples corresponding to more complicated geometries. We develop some analytic tools to test the inequalities, and as a byproduct, we show that positivity for the correlation functions is a local property when supplemented with analyticity. We also review general aspects of positivity for large N theories and Wilson loops in AdS-CFT.

description: In nonparametric statistical problems, we wish to find an estimator of an unknown function f. We can split its error into bias and variance terms; Smirnov, Bickel and Rosenblatt have shown that, for a histogram or kernel estimate, the supremum norm of the variance term is asymptotically distributed as a Gumbel random variable. In the following, we prove a version of this result for estimators using compactly-supported wavelets, a popular tool in nonparametric statistics. Our result relies on an assumption on the nature of the wavelet, which must be verified by provably-good numerical approximations. We verify our assumption for Daubechies wavelets and symlets, with N = 6, ..., 20 vanishing moments; larger values of N, and other wavelet bases, are easily checked, and we conjecture that our assumption holds also in those cases.
A macroscopic model that connects the molar excess entropy of a deeply supercooled liquid near its glass transition temperature to its viscosity

description: For a deeply supercooled liquid near its glass transition temperature, we suggest a possible way to connect the temperature dependence of its molar excess entropy to that of its viscosity by constructing a macroscopic model, where the deeply supercooled liquid is assumed to be a mixture of solid-like and liquid-like micro regions. In this model, we assume that the mole fraction x of the liquid-like micro regions tends to zero as the temperature T of the liquid is decreased and extrapolated to a temperature Tg*, which we assume to be below but close to the lowest glass transition temperature Tg attainable with the slowest possible cooling rate for the liquid. Without referring to any specific microscopic nature of the solid-like and liquid-like micro regions, we also assume that near Tg, the molar enthalpy of the solid-like micro regions is lower than that of the liquid-like micro regions. We then show that the temperature dependence of x is directly related to that of the molar excess entropy. Close to Tg, we assume that an activated motion of the solid-like micro regions controls the viscosity and that this activated motion is a collective motion involving practically all of the solid-like micro-regions so that the molar activation free energy for the activated motion is proportional to the mole fraction, 1-x, of the solid-like micro regions. The temperature dependence of the viscosity is thus connected to that of the molar excess entropy through the temperature dependence of the mole fraction x. As an example, we apply our model to a class of glass formers for which the molar excess entropy at temperatures near Tg is proportional to 1-T/TK with TK < Tg \sim Tg* and find their viscosities to be well approximated by the Vogel-Fulcher-Tamman equation for temperatures very close to Tg. We estimate the values of three parameters in our model for three glass formers in this class.

description: The Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) is situated in a strategic area on the northern frontline of China’s push into the Pacific region. The presence of the United States (US) in FSM and more widely in the western part of Micronesia under the terms of the Compact of Free Association (COFA) means the region is becoming an increasingly contested oceanic space. The FSM has political relationships with both superpowers: China and the US. Australia, an ally of the US and a major player in the Pacific, has had closely aligned security interests with FSM, and the countries have maintained enduring bilateral relations. The purpose of this In Brief is to make the case for enhanced Australian engagement with FSM in a changing geopolitical environment.

description: Dissipative engineering constitutes a framework within which quantum information processing protocols are powered by system-environment interaction rather than by unitary dynamics alone. This framework embraces noise as a resource, and consequently, offers a number of advantages compared to one based on unitary dynamics alone, e.g., that the protocols are typically independent of the initial state of the system. However, the time independent nature of this scheme makes it difficult to imagine precisely timed sequential operations, conditional measurements or error correction. In this work, we provide a path around these challenges, by introducing basic dissipative gadgets which allow us to precisely initiate, trigger and time dissipative operations, while keeping the system Liouvillian time-independent. These gadgets open up novel perspectives for thinking of timed dissipative quantum information processing. As an example, we sketch how measurement based computation can be simulated in the dissipative setting.

description: Recently, we have shown that if the ISM is governed by super-sonic turbulent flows, the excursion-set formalism can be used to calculate the statistics of self-gravitating objects over a wide range of scales. On the largest self-gravitating scales ('first crossing'), these correspond to GMCs, and on the smallest non-fragmenting self-gravitating scales ('last crossing'), to protostellar cores. Here, we extend this formalism to rigorously calculate the auto and cross-correlation functions of cores (and by extension, young stars) as a function of spatial separation and mass, in analogy to the cosmological calculation of halo clustering. We show that this generically predicts that star formation is very strongly clustered on small scales: stars form in clusters, themselves inside GMCs. Outside the binary-star regime, the projected correlation function declines as a weak power-law, until a characteristic scale which corresponds to the characteristic mass scale of GMCs. On much larger scales the clustering declines such that star formation is not strongly biased on galactic scales, relative to the actual dense gas distribution. The precise correlation function shape depends on properties of the turbulent spectrum, but its qualitative behavior is quite general. The predictions agree well with observations of young star and core autocorrelation functions over ~4 dex in radius. Clustered star formation is a generic consequence of supersonic turbulence if most of the power in the velocity field, hence the contribution to density fluctuations, comes from large scales. The distribution of self-gravitating masses near the sonic length is then imprinted by fluctuations on larger scales. We similarly show that the fraction of stars formed in 'isolated' modes should be small (\lesssim10%).

description: In usual demographic analysis, force of mortality is a function of one variable, that is, of age. In this article bi-variate and multivariate force of mortality functions are introduced for the first time to explain mortality differentials. The pattern of mortality in a population is one of the strong influencing factors in determining the life expectancies at various ages in the population. Considering univariate functions of age only to understand the human mortality data without associating with other variables could lead to incomplete analysis. The reasons behind declining forces of mortality globally could be studied using the proposed functions. Other applications of multivariate forces of mortality could be in actuarial sciences.

description: The migration of neutrophils from the blood circulation to sites of infection or injury is a key immune response and requires the breaching of endothelial cells (ECs) that line the inner aspect of blood vessels. Unregulated neutrophil transendothelial cell migration (TEM) is pathogenic, but the molecular basis of its physiological termination remains unknown. Here, we demonstrated that ECs of venules in inflamed tissues exhibited a robust autophagic response that was aligned temporally with the peak of neutrophil trafficking and was strictly localized to EC contacts. Genetic ablation of EC autophagy led to excessive neutrophil TEM and uncontrolled leukocyte migration in murine inflammatory models, while pharmacological induction of autophagy suppressed neutrophil infiltration into tissues. Mechanistically, autophagy regulated the remodeling of EC junctions and expression of key EC adhesion molecules, facilitating their intracellular trafficking and degradation. Collectively, we have identified autophagy as a modulator of EC leukocyte trafficking machinery aimed at terminating physiological inflammation.
Total joint arthroplasty patients' adherence to a pre-operative staphylococcus aureus decolonization protocol
Creators: name: Martino, Daniela

description: Background: Staphylococcus aureus surgical site infections and their treatment, in the total joint arthroplasty population, can significantly affect patients’ recovery and their quality of life, and can generate considerable economic cost for the health care system. The use of a pre-operative screening and decolonization protocol has shown promising eradication rates of Staphylococcus aureus and a decreased incidence of surgical site infections, however, the results have lacked statistical significance. Adherence to the decolonization protocol has been identified as a possible missing link or explanation for these equivocal findings. Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between age, self-efficacy, and adherence to a Staphylococcus aureus screening and decolonization protocol in the total joint arthroplasty population. Methods: A descriptive correlational study design was conducted. The study sample included 40 participants who underwent primary total joint arthroplasty surgery between May 1, 2013 and October 1, 2013 at a hospital in Vancouver, British Columbia. Self-efficacy and adherence were assessed using two self-report measures: the Self-efficacy Survey and the Adherence Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using correlational and multiple linear regression analyses. Results: The findings suggest that there was a positive relationship between age and adherence to the use of chlorhexidine gluconate cloths, and a negative relationship between age and adherence to the use of nasal Mupirocin. These results were not statistically significant. There was a statistically significant and strong positive relationship between the patients’ level of self-efficacy in applying Mupirocin and their adherence to its use, timing, and application. Little if no relationship was found between the patients’ level of self-efficacy to chlorhexidine gluconate cloths and their adherence to its use, timing, and application. Age, and not self-efficacy, contributed significantly to the outcome, adherence. Conclusions: The study found inconclusive results with respect to the relationships between age, self-efficacy, and adherence. In light of these results, this study highlights the many ways in which age and self-efficacy can influence adherence in adults. This information can be useful when evaluating the effectiveness of a decolonization protocol and for nurses in their attempts to design, implement, and evaluate patient education materials relevant to the protocol.

description: We investigate exciton bound-state formation and crystallization effects in two-dimensional electron-hole bilayers. Performing unbiased path integral Monte Carlo simulations all quantum and Coulomb correlation effects are treated on first principles. We analyze diverse pair distribution functions in dependence on the layer separation, particle density and hole-to-electron mass ratio and derive a schematic phase diagram for the neutral mass-asymmetric bilayer system. Our simulations reveal a great variety of possible phases namely an exciton gas, an exciton crystal, an electron-hole liquid and a hole crystal embedded in an electron gas.
