description: We present a null model for single- and multi-layered complex systems constructed using homogeneous and isotropic random Gaussian maps. By means of a Kac-Rice formalism, we show that the mean number of fixed points can be calculated as the expectation of the absolute value of the characteristic polynomial for a product of independent Gaussian (Ginibre) matrices. Furthermore, using techniques from Random Matrix Theory, we show that the high-dimensional limit of our system has a third-order phase transition between a phase with a single fixed point and a phase with exponentially many fixed points. This is result is universal in the sense that it does not depend on finer details of the correlations for the random maps.

description: The phenomena of diffusion in multicomponent (more than two components) mixtures are very universal in both science and engineering, and from mathematical point of view, they are usually described by the Maxwell-Stefan (MS) based continuum equations. In this paper, we propose a multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann (LB) model for the mass diffusion in multicomponent mixtures, and also perform a Chapman-Enskog analysis to show that the MS based continuum equations can be correctly recovered from the developed LB model. In addition, considering the fact that the MS based continuum equations are just a diffusion type of partial differential equations, we can also adopt much simpler lattice structures to reduce the computational cost of present LB model. We then conduct some simulations to test this model, and find that the results are in good agreement with some available works. Besides, the reverse diffusion, osmotic diffusion and diffusion barrier phenomena are also captured. Finally, compared to the kinetic theory based LB models for multicomponent gas diffusion, the present model does not include any complicated interpolations, and its collision process can be still implemented locally. Therefore, the advantages of single-component LB method can also be preserved in present LB model.

$B_s$ Mixing at SLD

description: We set a preliminary 95% C.L. exclusion on the oscillation frequency of $B_s^0 - \bar{B_s^0}$ mixing using a sample of 400,000 hadronic $Z^0$ decays collected by the SLD experiment at the SLC during the 1996-98 run. Three analyses are presented in this paper. The first analysis partially reconstructs the $B_s^0$ by combining a fully reconstructed $D_s$ with the remaining charged B decay tracks. The second analysis selects a sample of events with a partially reconstructed charm vertex and a lepton track. The third analysis reconstructs b-hadrons topologically and exploits the $b \to c$ cascade charge structure to determine the flavor of the b-hadron at decay. All three analyses take advantage of the large forward-backward asymmetry of the polarized $Z^0 \to b \bar{b}$ decays and information in the hemisphere opposite to the reconstructed B vertex to determine the b-hadron flavor at production. The results of the three analyses are combined to exclude the following values of the $B_s^0 - \bar{B_s^0}$ oscillation frequency: $Δm_s < 7.6 ps^{-1}$ and $11.8 < Δm_s < 14.8 ps^{-1}$ at the 95% confidence level.

description: Recently the doping of topological insulators has attracted significant interest as a potential route towards topological superconductivity. Because many experimental techniques lack sufficient surface sensitivity, however, a definite proof of the coexistence of topological surface states and surface superconductivity is still outstanding. Here we report on highly surface sensitive scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) experiments performed on Tl-doped Bi$_2$Te$_3$, a three-dimensional topological insulator which becomes superconducting in the bulk at $T_{\rm C} = 2.3$\,K. Landau level spectroscopy as well as quasiparticle interference mapping clearly demonstrated the presence of a topological surface state with a Dirac point energy $E_{\textrm{D}} = -(118 \pm 1)$\,meV and a Dirac velocity $v_{\textrm{D}} = (4.7 \pm 0.1)\cdot 10^{5}$\,m/s. Tunneling spectra often show a superconducting gap, but temperature- and field-dependent measurements show that both $T_{\rm C}$ and $μ_0 H_{\rm C}$ strongly deviate from the corresponding bulk values. Furthermore, in spite of acritical field value which clearly points to type-II superconductivity, no Abrikosov lattice could be observed. Experiments performed on normal-metallic Ag(111) prove that the gapped spectrum is only caused by superconducting tips, probably caused by a gentle crash with the sample surface during approach. Nearly identical results were found for the intrinsically n-type compound Nb-doped Bi$_2$Se$_3$. Our results suggest that the superconductivity in superconducting-doped V-VI topological insulators does not extend to the surface where the topological surface state is located.
Collisional Growth of Icy Dust Aggregates in Disk Formation Stage: Difficulties for Planetesimal Formation via Direct Collisional Growth outside the Snowline

description: Highly porous dust aggregates can break through the radial drift barrier, but previous studies assumed disks in their later stage, where the disks have a very small mass and low temperature. In contrast, dust coagulation should begin in the very early stage such as the disk formation stage because the growth timescale of dust is shorter than the disk formation timescale if there is no process to suppress the collisional growth of dust. We investigate the possibility of planetesimal formation via direct collisional growth in the very early stage of a protoplanetary disk. We show that, in the very early stage of protoplanetary disks, icy dust aggregates suffer radial drift and deplete without forming planetesimal-sized objects. This is because as the disk temperature easily increases by the viscous heating in the disk formation stage, the area where the dust can break through the radial drift barrier is restricted only to the inside the snowline. This suggests that in the disk formation stage, icy planetesimal formation via direct collisional growth of dust is difficult.

description: Mesoporous carbon materials were synthesized employing polymers and silica gels as structure directing templates. The basic physico-chemical properties of the synthetic mesoporous materials were characterized by ¹H and ¹³C MAS solid-state NMR, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and nitrogen adsorption measurements. The confinement effects on small guest molecules such as water, benzene and pyridine and their interactions with the pore surface were probed by a combination of variable temperature ¹H-MAS NMR and quantum chemical calculations of the magnetic shielding effect of the surface on the solvent molecules. The interactions of the guest molecules depend strongly on the carbonization temperature and the pathway of the synthesis. All the guest-molecules, water, benzene and pyridine, exhibited high-field shifts by the interaction with the surface of carbon materials. The geometric confinement imposed by the surface causes a strong depression of the melting point of the surface phase of water and benzene. The theoretical calculation of ¹H NICS maps shows that the observed proton chemical shifts towards high-field values can be explained as the result of electronic ring currents localized in aromatic groups on the surface. The dependence on the distance between the proton and the aromatic surface can be exploited to estimate the average diameter of the confinement structures.

Space, time, parallelism and noise requirements for reliable quantum computing

description: Quantum error correction methods use processing power to combat noise. The noise level which can be tolerated in a fault-tolerant method is therefore a function of the computational resources available, especially the size of computer and degree of parallelism. I present an analysis of error correction with block codes, made fault-tolerant through the use of prepared ancilla blocks. The preparation and verification of the ancillas is described in detail. It is shown that the ancillas need only be verified against a small set of errors. This, combined with previously known advantages, makes this `ancilla factory' the best method to apply error correction, whether in concatenated or block coding. I then consider the resources required to achieve $2 \times 10^{10}$ computational steps reliably in a computer of 2150 logical qubits, finding that the simplest $[[n,1,d]]$ block codes can tolerate more noise with smaller overheads than the $7^L$-bit concatenated code. The scaling is such that block codes remain the better choice for all computations one is likely to contemplate.

description: Successful delivery of anticancer drugs to intracellular targets requires different properties of the nanocarrier to overcome multiple transport barriers. However, few nanocarrier systems, to date, possess such properties, despite knowledge about the biological fate of inorganic and polymeric nanocarriers in relation to their fixed size, shape and surface properties. Herein, a polymer-lipid hybrid nanoparticle (PLN) system is described with size and shape transformability and its mechanisms of cellular uptake and intracellular trafficking are studied. Pharmaceutical lipids were screened for use in transformable PLN. Mechanisms of cellular uptake and the role of fatty acid-binding proteins in intracellular trafficking of PLN were investigated in breast cancer cells. Intra-tumoral penetration and retention of doxorubicin (DOX) were evaluated by confocal microscopy. The lead PLNs showed time-dependent size reduction and shape change from spherical to spiky shape. This transformability of PLNs and lipid trafficking pathways facilitated intracellular transport of DOX-loaded PLN (DOX-PLN) into mitochondria and nuclei. DOX-PLN significantly increased DOX penetration and retention over free DOX or non-transformable liposomal DOX particles at 4 h post-intravenous administration. Transformability of PLN and lipid-biology interplay can be exploited to design new nanocarriers for effective drug delivery to tumor cells and intracellular targets.

Randomly Charged Polymers: Excess Charge Dependence of Spatial Configurations
Creators: name: Kantor, Yacov

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Spatial configurations of randomly charged polymers, known as polyampholytes (PAs), are very sensitive to the overall excess charge Q. Analytical arguments, supported by Monte Carlo simulations and exact enumeration studies, lead to the following picture: For Q < Q_c = q_0 N^2 (q_0 is the elementary charge, N is the number of monomers in the polymer), the radius of gyration R_g of the polymer decreases with decreasing temperature T and the polymer becomes compact, while for Q>Q_c the polymer stretches with decreasing T. At low T, the dense states are described by Debye-Huckel theory, while the expanded states resemble a necklace of globules connected by strings. At such temperatures, the transition between the dense and the expanded states with increasing Q, is reminiscent of the breakup of a charged drop.

description: Some 67 years ago (1951) Wolfgang Pauli mooted the three sum rules: \[ \sum_n (-1)^{2S_n} g_n = 0; \qquad \sum_n (-1)^{2S_n} g_n \; m_n^2 =0; \qquad \sum_n (-1)^{2S_n} g_n \; m_n^4=0. \] These three sum rules are intimately related to both the Lorentz invariance and the finiteness of the zero-point stress-energy tensor. Further afield, these three constraints are also intimately related to the existence of finite QFTs ultimately based on fermi--bose cancellations. (Supersymmetry is neither necessary nor sufficient for the existence of these finite QFTs; though softly but explicitly broken supersymmetry or mis-aligned supersymmetry can be used as a book-keeping device to keep the calculations manageable.) In the current article I shall instead take these three Pauli sum rules as given, assume their exact non-perturbative validity, contrast them with the observed standard model particle physics spectrum, and use them to extract as much model-independent information as possible regarding beyond standard model (BSM) physics.

description: Thermal contact resistance at the finger-object interface plays a significant role in our thermal perception and is an important parameter for the design of a myriad of electronics and thermal devices. Currently, its value is measured experimentally or, more commonly, is estimated using a semi-empirical model. This model was developed by Cooper, Mikic, and Yovanovich (CMY) in the 1960s for predicting contact resistance of metal-metal interfaces in a vacuum. In this work, it is shown that measured value of finger-object contact resistance is better predicted by a more recent correlation by Prasher and Matayabas (PM) that was developed by fitting contact resistance data for silicone gel-metal surface interfaces in microelectronic applications. Furthermore, it is show that the functional form of the empirical PM correlation can be derived using scale analysis of the finger-solid contact scenario, consequently can be considered a physics-based model. Comparing the two models against two previously published experimental data sets demonstrates that the PM model predicts well the thermal resistance between finger and variety of materials over a wide range of contact pressures. Specifically, for finger contact with significantly more conductive materials (thermal conductivity above 1 Wm−1K−1) including aluminum, BaF2 crystal, and marble a good prediction of contact resistance can be attained. For skin contact with less conductive materials, such as wood, both models become highly sensitive to the substrate’s thermal conductivity value and provide only an order of magnitude estimate. The main implications of these results and relevant outstanding questions are also briefly discussed.

description: The Bregman distance $B_{ξ_x}(y,x)$, $ξ_x \in \partial J(y),$ associated to a convex sub-differentiable functional $J$ is known to be in general non-symmetric in its arguments $x$, $y$. In this note we address the question when Bregman distances can be bounded against each other when the arguments are switched, i.e., if some constant $C>0$ exists such that for all $x,y$ on a convex set $M$ it holds that $\frac{1}{C} B_{ξ_x}(y,x) \leq B_{ξ_y}(x,y) \leq C B_{ξ_x}(y,x).$ We state sufficient conditions for such an inequality and prove in particular that it holds for the $p$-powers of the $\ell_p$ and $L^p$-norms when $1 < p

description: We relate ordinary and skewed parton distributions to soft overlap contributions to elastic form factors and large angle Compton scattering, using light-cone wave functions in a Fock state expansion of the nucleon. With a simple ansatz for the wave functions of the three lowest Fock states we achieve a good description of unpolarised and polarised parton distributions at large x, and of the data for the Dirac form factor and for Compton scattering, both of which can be saturated with soft contributions only. Large angle Compton scattering appears as a good case to investigate the relative importance of soft and hard contributions in exclusive processes which are sensitive to the end point regions of the nucleon wave function.

description: We investigate the hydrodynamic recovery of Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) by analyzing exact balance relations for energy and enstrophy derived from averaging the equations of motion on sub-volumes of different sizes. In the context of 2D isotropic homogeneous turbulence, we first validate this approach on decaying turbulence by comparing the hydrodynamic recovery of an ensemble of LBM simulations against the one of an ensemble of Pseudo-Spectral (PS) simulations. We then conduct a benchmark of LBM simulations of forced turbulence with increasing Reynolds number by varying the input relaxation times of LBM. This approach can be extended to the study of implicit subgrid-scale (SGS) models, thus offering a promising route to quantify the implicit SGS models implied by existing stabilization techniques within the LBM framework.

description: Earlier studies on Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs), using remote sensing and in situ observations, have attempted to determine some of the internal properties of CMEs, which were limited to a certain position or a certain time. For understanding the evolution of the internal thermodynamic state of CMEs during their heliospheric propagation, we improve the self-similar flux rope internal state (FRIS) model, which is constrained by measured propagation and expansion speed profiles of a CME. We implement the model to a CME erupted on 2008 December 12 and probe the internal state of the CME. It is found that the polytropic index of the CME plasma decreased continuously from 1.8 to 1.35 as the CME moved away from the Sun, implying that the CME released heat before it reached adiabatic state and then absorbed heat. We further estimate the entropy changing and heating rate of the CME. We also find that the thermal force inside the CME is the internal driver of CME expansion while Lorentz force prevented the CME from expanding. It is noted that centrifugal force due to poloidal motion decreased with the fastest rate and Lorentz force decreased slightly faster than thermal pressure force as CME moved away from the Sun. We also discuss the limitations of the model and approximations made in the study.

description: The subject of quantum computing brings together ideas from classical information theory, computer science, and quantum physics. This review aims to summarise not just quantum computing, but the whole subject of quantum information theory. It turns out that information theory and quantum mechanics fit together very well. In order to explain their relationship, the review begins with an introduction to classical information theory and computer science, including Shannon's theorem, error correcting codes, Turing machines and computational complexity. The principles of quantum mechanics are then outlined, and the EPR experiment described. The EPR-Bell correlations, and quantum entanglement in general, form the essential new ingredient which distinguishes quantum from classical information theory, and, arguably, quantum from classical physics. Basic quantum information ideas are described, including key distribution, teleportation, data compression, quantum error correction, the universal quantum computer and quantum algorithms. The common theme of all these ideas is the use of quantum entanglement as a computational resource. Experimental methods for small quantum processors are briefly sketched, concentrating on ion traps, high Q cavities, and NMR. The review concludes with an outline of the main features of quantum information physics, and avenues for future research.

description: The training of deep neural network classifiers results in decision boundaries which geometry is still not well understood. This is in direct relation with classification problems such as so called adversarial examples. We introduce zoNNscan, an index that is intended to inform on the boundary uncertainty (in terms of the presence of other classes) around one given input datapoint. It is based on confidence entropy, and is implemented through sampling in the multidimensional ball surrounding that input. We detail the zoNNscan index, give an algorithm for approximating it, and finally illustrate its benefits on four applications, including two important problems for the adoption of deep networks in critical systems: adversarial examples and corner case inputs. We highlight that zoNNscan exhibits significantly higher values than for standard inputs in those two problem classes.

description: We consider a magnetic insulator in contact with a normal metal. We derive a self-consistent Keldysh effective action for the magnon gas that contains the effects of magnon-magnon interactions and contact with the metal to lowest order. Self-consistent expressions for the dispersion relation, temperature and chemical potential for magnons are derived. Based on this effective action, we study instabilities of the magnon gas that arise due to spin-current flowing across the interface between the normal metal and the magnetic insulator. We find that the stability phase diagram is modified by an interference between magnon-magnon interactions and interfacial magnon-electron coupling. These effects persist at low temperatures and for thin magnetic insulators.

description: We study the spin-ordering and the magnon collective modes of the two-dimensional Wigner crystal state at strong magnetic fields. Our work is based on the Hartree-Fock approximation for the ground state and the time-dependent Hartree-Fock approximation for the collective modes. We find that the ground state is ferromagnetic, i.e that all spins are aligned at T=0 even when the electronic g-factor is negligibly small. The magnon calculations show that the spin-stiffness is much smaller in the crystal state than in fluid states which occur at nearby Landau level filling factors.

description: The historical origins of the game theoretic predator-prey pursuit problem can be traced back to Benda, et al., 1985 [1]. Their work adapted the predator-prey ecology problem into a pursuit environment which focused on the dynamics of cooperative behavior between predator agents. Modifications to the predator-prey ecology problem [2] have been implemented to understand how variations to predator [3] and prey [3-5] attributes, including communication [6], can modify dynamic interactions between entities that emerge within that environment [7-9]. Furthermore, the predator-prey pursuit environment has become a testbed for simulation experiments with computational multiagent systems [10-12]. This article extends the theoretical contributions of previous work by providing 1) additional variations to predator and prey attributes for simulated multiagent systems in the pursuit problem, and 2) military-relevant predator-prey environments simulating highly dynamic, tactical edge scenarios that Soldiers might encounter on future battlefields. Through this exploration of simulated tactical edge scenarios with computational multiagent systems, Soldiers will have a greater chance to achieve overmatch on the battlefields of tomorrow.

A computationally efficient correlated mixed Probit for credit risk modelling
Creators: name: Tosetti, Elisa
name: Vinciotti, Veronica
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Applications (stat.AP)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Mixed Probit models are widely applied in many fields where prediction of a binary response is of interest. Typically, the random effects are assumed to be independent but this is seldom the case for many real applications. In the credit risk application considered in this paper, random effects are present at the level of industrial sectors and they are expected to be correlated due to inter-firm credit links inducing dependencies in the firms' risk to default. Unfortunately, existing inferential procedures for correlated mixed Probit models are computationally very intensive already for a moderate number of effects. Borrowing from the literature on large network inference, we propose an efficient Expectation-Maximization algorithm for unconstrained and penalised likelihood estimation and derive the asymptotic standard errors of the estimates. An extensive simulation study shows that the proposed approach enjoys substantial computational gains relative to standard Monte Carlo approaches, while still providing accurate parameter estimates. Using data on nearly 64,000 accounts for small and medium-sized enterprises in the United Kingdom in 2013 across 14 industrial sectors, we find that accounting for network effects via a correlated mixed Probit model increases significantly the default prediction power of the model compared to conventional default prediction models, making efficient inferential procedures for these models particularly useful in this field.
Perspectives in Early Childhood Special Education: A Case Study Examining Working in Special Education and Educating Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Creators: name: Sarah Geiser
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: This case study explores the experiences of one early childhood special educator. Throughmultiple interviews the following questions were examined: (a) what are the challenges faced byan early childhood special educator? and (b) what are the experiences and needs in teaching astudent with autism spectrum disorder? The findings of this study included reexamining morecomprehensive pre-service teacher preparation and in-service work. Key challenges weremanaging behaviors of students with autism, as well as the multidisciplinary nature of workingwith families and paraprofessionals, and how these factors precipitated role overload andisolation. The findings of this study are consistent with previous literature. They outline many ofthe same challenges experienced by other educators in the desire for more multidisciplinarysupport and direct exposure in working with students and families. These core issues arefoundational in the need for more comprehensive pre-service preparation in early childhoodspecial education.Keywords: autism spectrum disorders, early childhood special education, special education,paraprofessional, teacher preparation
CP violation in semi-leptonic decays of the top quark within MSSM

description: We calculate the CP-violating effects in the top quark semi-leptonic three body decays induced by the supersymmetric CP-odd phase of the top squark trilinear soft breaking term $\arg(A_t)$. The light top squark mass is assumed to be close to the top quark mass $m_{\tilde{t}}\sim m_t$. The CP-conserving phase is provided by the $χ^+$ and $χ^0$ cut. We find that the partial rate asymmetry is in the 0.1% level. In the most favorable parameter region the decay rate asymmetr can reach up to 0.55%.

We study the leptoquark signals and backgrounds that give rise to final states containing a pair e+e- and jets. Our results show that the LHC will be able to discover vector leptoquarks with masses up to 1.3-2.1 TeV depending on their couplings to fermions and gluons.
