description: Microbial communities are accompanied by a diverse array of viruses. Through infections of abundant microbes, these viruses have the potential to mediate competition within the community, effectively weakening competitive interactions and promoting coexistence. This is of particular relevance for host-associated microbial communities, because the diversity of the microbiota has been linked to host health and functioning. Here, we study the interaction between two key members of the microbiota of the freshwater metazoan Hydra vulgaris. The two commensal bacteria Curvibacter sp. and Duganella sp. protect their host from fungal infections, but only if both of them are present. Coexistence of the two bacteria is thus beneficial for Hydra. Intriguingly, Duganella sp. appears to be the superior competitor in vitro due to its higher growth rate when both bacteria are grown separately, but in co-culture the outcome of competition depends on the relative initial abundances of the two species. The presence of an inducible prophage in the Curvibacter sp. genome, which is able to lytically infect Duganella sp., led us to hypothesize that the phage modulates the interaction between these two key members of the Hydra microbiota. Using a mathematical model, we show that the interplay of the lysogenic life cycle of the Curvibacter phage and the lytic life cycle on Duganella sp. can explain the observed complex competitive interaction between the two bacteria. Our results highlight the importance of taking lysogeny into account for understanding microbe–virus interactions and show the complex role phages can play in promoting coexistence of their bacterial hosts.

description: We study an impurity with a resonance level whose energy coincides with the Fermi energy of the surrounding Fermi gas. An impurity causes a rapid variation of the scattering phase shift for fermions at the Fermi surface, introducing a new characteristic length scale into the problem. We investigate manifestations of this length scale in the self-energy of the impurity and in the density of the bath. Our calculations reveal a model-independent deformation of the density of the Fermi gas, which is determined by the width of the resonance. To provide a broader picture, we investigate time evolution of the density in quench dynamics, and study the behavior of the system at finite temperatures. Finally, we briefly discuss implications of our findings for the Fermi-polaron problem.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Sudden death in young individuals is relatively uncommon and acute haemorrhagic pancreatitis as a cause of sudden and unexpected death is a rare phenomenon. The possible causal link between damage to the heart and acute pancreatitis and other pancreatic diseases has been considered in both adults and children, particularly in cases of sudden, unexpected death. However, the cardiac pathological findings so far reported in the literature are neither specific enough, nor of a kind to prove a direct pancreatic pathogenesis. A case of sudden death due to fatal myocardial infarction secondary to acute haemorrhagic pancreatitis is reported in a young male who was found dead at his house. The condition was discovered only at autopsy.

description: In this paper, we consider the real modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation and construct a special kind of breather solution, which can be obtained by taking the limit $λ_{j}$ $\rightarrow$ $λ_{1}$ of the Lax pair eigenvalues used in the $n$-fold Darboux transformation that generates the order-$n$ periodic solution from a constant seed solution. Further, this special kind of breather solution of order $n$ can be used to generate the order-$n$ rational solution by taking the limit $λ_{1}$ $\rightarrow$ $λ_{0}$, where $λ_{0}$ is a special eigenvalue associated to the eigenfunction $ϕ$ of the Lax pair of the mKdV equation. This eigenvalue $λ_0$, for which $ϕ(λ_0)=0$, corresponds to the limit of infinite period of the periodic solution. %This second limit of double eigenvalue degeneration might be realized approximately in optical fibers, in which an injected %initial ideal pulse is created by a comb system and a programmable optical filter according to the profile of the analytical %form of the b-positon at a certain spatial position $x_{0}$. Therefore, we suggest a new way to observe the higher-order %rational solutions in optical fibers, namely, to measure the wave patterns at the central region of the higher order b-positon %generated by ideal initial pulses when the eigenvalue $λ_{1}$ is approaching $λ_{0}$. Our analytical and numerical results show the effective mechanism of generation of higher-order rational solutions of the mKdV equation from the double eigenvalue degeneration process of multi-periodic solutions.

description: To meet high radiation challenge for detectors in future high-energy physics, a novel 3D 4H-SiC detector was investigated. SiC detectors could potentially operate in radiation harsh and room temperature environment because of its high thermal conductivity and high atomic displacement threshold energy. 3D structure, which decouples thickness and distance between electrodes, further improves timing performance and radiation hardness of the detector. We developed a simulation software - RASER (RAdiation SEmiconductoR) to simulate the time resolution of planar and 3D 4H-SiC detectors with different parameters and structures, and the reliability of the software is verified by comparing time resolution results of simulation with data. The rough time resolution of 3D 4H-SiC detector was estimated, and the simulation parameters could be used as guideline to 3D 4H-SiC detector design and optimization.

description: This review deals with different aspects of driving under the influence of drugs (DUID).Cannabis, cocaine, opiates, amphetamines and methamphetamines are the most prevalent illegal drugs detected in the surveys carried out by the police and involved in traffic accidents. The use of oral fluid matrix to detect drugged drivers as well as pharmacokinetics of illegal drugs in oral fluid, correlation with blood, times of elimination and on-site drugs tests has been considered. A brief description of the marketed on-site test devices is provided. The relationship between drug use and impairment driving, and articles published in the specialized literature have been consulted. Data has been obtained from MEDLINE base date during the last years. Although oral fluid is a suitable fluid for analysis and the a steady progress has been done along the time, in the devices for screening, more effort must be achieved regarding to its performance and reliability regarding to parameters as sensibility specificity and recovery, specially for cannabis, the most prevalent drug detected. Standardized protocols referring to sample collection, established cut-offs, analytical confirmatory methods are issues that may be established to avoid erroneous results and interpretation. At present, legislation around the world using the oral fluid in legal procedure is not well defined but some countries are applying these methods to sanction drivers. In Spain, in Catalonia region, qualitative results are being utilized to fine drivers and courts are admitting the proofs.

description: This work presents a facile strategy for the generation of Fe3O4@poly(4-vinylpyridine)-block-polystyrene (Fe3O4@P4VP-b-PS) magnetic polymer nanocomposites. P4VP-b-PS nanoparticles prepared by dispersion RAFT polymerization of styrene in methanol/water in the presence of macro-P4VP chain transfer agent was employed as templates to grow Fe3O4 on polymeric network templates. With the following addition of FeCl3 into the above polymer colloids, pyridyl moieties in P4VP block of nanoparticles could further react with Fe3+ through a coordination reaction to generate Fe3+@P4VP-b-PS nanoparticles. After the subsequent addition of FeCl2 and NH3⋅H2O, the co-precipitation reaction occurred on the surface of the polymeric nanoparticle to form Fe3O4@P4VP-b-PS magnetic polymer nanocomposites. Herein, FT-IR, XRD, TGA, XPS, TEM and VSM were applied to characterize the morphology, structure and magnetism performance of the synthesized magnetic polymeric nanocomposites.

description: Hydrogen storage by physisorption in carbon based materials is hindered by low adsorption energies. In the last decade doping of carbon materials with alkali, earth alkali or other metal atoms was proposed as a means to enhance adsorption energies, and some experiments have shown promising results. We investigate the upper bounds of hydrogen storage capacities of $C_{60}Cs$ clusters grown in ultracold helium nanodroplets by analyzing anomalies in the ion abundance that indicate shell closure of hydrogen adsorption shells. On bare $C_{60}^{+}$, a commensurate phase with 32 $H_2$ molecules was identified in previous experiments. Doping $C_{60}$ with a single cesium atom leads to an increase in relative ion abundance for the first 10 $H_2$ molecules, and the closure of the commensurate phase is shifted from 32 to 42 $H_2$ molecules. Density functional theory calculations indicate that thirteen energetically enhanced adsorption sites exist, where six of them fill the groove between Cs and $C_{60}$ and 7 are located at the cesium atom. We emphasize the large effect of the quantum nature of the hydrogen molecule on the adsorption energies, i.e. the adsorption energies are decreased by around 50% for $(H_2)C_{60}Cs$ and up to 80% for $(H_2)C_{60}$ by harmonic zero-point corrections, which represent an upper bound to corrections for dissociation energies ($D_e$ to $D_0$) by the vibrational ground states. Five normal modes of libration and vibration of $H_2$ physisorbed on the substrate contribute primarily to this large decrease in adsorption energies. A similar effect can be found for H2 physisorbed on benzene and is expected to be found for any other weakly $H_2$-binding substrate.

description: Charged current semi-leptonic decays of $B$-meson are important for a precise determination of the CKM elements. The CKM elements $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$ show a discrepancy between the exclusive and inclusive determinations. These determinations are however masked with hadronic and other uncertainties, and thus can't be unambiguously taken as implying new physics. In the present study, we propose a new observable: the ratio of these two CKM elements, $R_V \equiv \frac{|V_{ub}|}{|V_{cb}|}$, which is found to receive negligible corrections due to hadronic as well as QED effects. Interestingly, $R_V$ as constructed from exclusive determinations of $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$ agrees quite well with that constructed from the inclusive determinations of these CKM elements. Hence, we propose that $R_V$ is a better and cleaner observable, and can serve as an excellent tool for the test of the Standard Model. We also provide an example of its probing power.

description: The $\mathscr{N}=2^*$ supersymmetric gauge theory is a massive deformation of $\mathscr{N}=4$, in which the adjoint hypermultiplet gets a mass. We present a D-brane realisation of the (non-)Abelian $\mathscr{N}=2^*$ theory, and compute suitable topological amplitudes, which are expressed as a double series expansion. The coefficients determine couplings of higher-dimensional operators in the effective supergravity action that involve powers of the anti-self-dual $\mathscr{N}=2$ chiral Weyl superfield and of self-dual gauge field strengths superpartners of the D5-brane coupling modulus. In the field theory limit, the result reproduces the Nekrasov partition function in the two-parameter $\varOmega$-background, in agreement with a recent proposal.

description: The recent and increasing interest in video-language research has driven the development of large-scale datasets that enable data-intensive machine learning techniques. In comparison, limited effort has been made at assessing the fitness of these datasets for the video-language grounding task. Recent works have begun to discover significant limitations in these datasets, suggesting that state-of-the-art techniques commonly overfit to hidden dataset biases. In this work, we present MAD (Movie Audio Descriptions), a novel benchmark that departs from the paradigm of augmenting existing video datasets with text annotations and focuses on crawling and aligning available audio descriptions of mainstream movies. MAD contains over 384,000 natural language sentences grounded in over 1,200 hours of videos and exhibits a significant reduction in the currently diagnosed biases for video-language grounding datasets. MAD's collection strategy enables a novel and more challenging version of video-language grounding, where short temporal moments (typically seconds long) must be accurately grounded in diverse long-form videos that can last up to three hours. We have released MAD's data and baselines code at https://github.com/Soldelli/MAD.

description: Conditions like Stevens Johnson syndrome are very rare and mortality arising out of it is still a rarest entity. It is immune complex mediated hypersensitivity reaction; most common factors to trigger the immunity are drugs, followed by infection with various organisms, which starts the chain of events in SJS. It sometimes associated with HLA Antigen and 25-50% cases are idiopathic. In present case an emphasis is given on progression of this life threatening condition, mode of death, responsibilities of the physician and legal as well as criminal consequences arise out of it while treating such cases.

description: Non-Abelian braiding has attracted significant attention because of its pivotal role in describing the exchange behaviors of anyons--a candidate for realizing quantum logics. The input and outcome of non-Abelian braiding are connected by a unitary matrix which can also physically emerge as a geometric-phase matrix in classical systems. Hence it is predicted that non-Abelian braiding should have analogues in photonics, but a feasible platform and the experimental realization remain out of reach. Here, we propose and experimentally realize an on-chip photonic system that achieves the non-Abelian braiding of up to five photonic modes. The braiding is realized by controlling the multi-mode geometric-phase matrix in judiciously designed photonic waveguide arrays. The quintessential effect of braiding--sequence-dependent swapping of photon dwell sites is observed in both classical-light and single-photon experiments. Our photonic chips are a versatile and expandable platform for studying non-Abelian physics, and we expect the results to motivate next-gen non-Abelian photonic devices.

The scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies reveal high quality BNRs: all the ribbons are along the [-110] direction of Ag(110), and can run across the steps on the surface. The width of ribbons is distributed in a narrow range around 10.3 nm. High resolution STM images revealed four ordered surface structures in BNRs. Combined with DFT calculations, we found that all the four structures of boron nanoribbons consist of the boron chains with different width, separated by hexagonal hole arrays. The successful synthesis of BNRs enriches the low dimensional allotrope of boron and may promote further applications of borophene

description: Animal tissue has an extended history of clinical use in applications like heart valve bioprosthesis devices, cardiovascular surgical applications etc. but often does not last long after implantation in the body due to rapid unwanted degradation. The goal of this work is to develop novel composite biomaterials by grafting biological tissue with synthetic, biodegradable polymers. In the current research phase, porcine submucosa, ureter and bovine pericardial tissue are grafted with poly DL-lactide (PLA), poly glycolide (PGA) and poly DL-lactide glycolide (PLGA) copolymers. The grafted and control tissues are characterized by FTIR and SEM. The biodegradability of the tissue-graft composite materials is determined by pepsin and collagenase digestion assays, showing it can be tailored by varying the grafted polymer type and amount. The grafted tissues can be tuned for a particular clinical or tissue engineering applications including drug delivery with little or no burst release and sustained/controlled delivery.

description: Understanding the emergence of prosocial behaviours (e.g., cooperation and trust) among self-interested agents is an important problem in many disciplines. Network structure and institutional incentives (e.g., punishing antisocial agents) are known to promote prosocial behaviours, when acting in isolation, one mechanism being present at a time. Here we study the interplay between these two mechanisms to see whether they are independent, interfering or synergetic. Using evolutionary game theory, we show that punishing antisocial agents and a regular networked structure not only promote prosocial behaviours among agents playing the trust game, but they also interplay with each other, leading to interference or synergy, depending on the game parameters. Synergy emerges on a wider range of parameters than interference does. In this domain, the combination of incentives and networked structure improves the efficiency of incentives, yielding prosocial behaviours at a lower cost than the incentive does alone. This has a significant implication in the promotion of prosocial behaviours in multi-agent systems.

We report, for the first time, Dermestes frischii Kugelann, 1792 larvae from a mummified human body covered with bushes and located in a canal in Sarvestan district, Fars province, south of Iran. The human corpse was a 63 year old male. The time of death was estimated to have been 23 days prior to the finding of the body based on the police investigations and confessions of a suspect. This beetle can be helpful to estimate the time of death in the future.

description: Non-Hermitian physics has found a fertile ground in optics. Recently, the study of mode degeneracies, i.e. exceptional points, has led to the discovery of intriguing and counterintuitive phenomena. Degeneracies are typically modeled through the coupled mode theory to determine the behaviour of eigenstates and eigenvalues. However, the complex nature of the eigenvalues makes hard their direct characterization from the response spectrum. Here, we demonstrate that a coherent interferometric excitation allows estimating both the real and imaginary parts of the eigenvalues. We studied the clockwise and counter-clockwise modes in an optical microresonators both in the case of Hermitian and non-Hermitian intermodal coupling. We show the conditions by which a resonant doublet, due to the dissipative coupling of counter-propagating modes caused by surface roughness backscattering, merges to a single Lorentzian. This permits to estimate the optimal quality factor of the microresonator in the absence of modal coupling caused by backscattering. Furthermore, we demonstrate that a taiji microresonator working at an exceptional point shows a degeneracy splitting only in one propagation direction and not in the other. This follows from the strongly non-Hermitian intermodal coupling caused by the inner S-shaped waveguide.

description: The non-Markovian master equation for open quantum systems is obtained by generalization of the standard Zwanzig-Nakajima (ZN) projection technique. To this end, a coupled chain of equations for the reduced density matrices of the bath $\varrho_{B}(t)$ and of the system $\varrho_{S}(t)$ are written. Formal solution of the equation for $\varrho_{B}(t)$ in the 2-nd approximation in interaction yields a specific extra term, related to the intrinsic bath dynamics. This term is nonlinear in the reduced density matrix $\varrho_{S}(t)$, and vanishes in the Markovian limit. To verify the consistence and robustness of our approach, we apply the generalized ZN projection scheme to a simple dephasing model. We study the obtained kinetic equation both in the Markovian approximation and beyond it (for the term related to the intrinsic bath dynamics) and compare the results with the exact ones.

description: Relativistic astrophysical collisionless shocks represent outstanding dissipation agents of the huge power of relativistic outflows produced by accreting black holes, core collapsed supernovae and other objects into multi-messenger radiation (cosmic rays, neutrinos, electromagnetic radiation). This article provides a theoretical discussion of the fundamental physical ingredients of these extreme phenomena. In the context of weakly magnetized shocks, in particular, it is shown how the filamentation type instabilities, which develop in the precursor of pair dominated or electron-ion shocks, provide the seeds for the scattering of high energy particles as well as the agent which preheats and slows down the incoming precursor plasma. This analytical discussion is completed with a mesoscopic, non-linear model of particle acceleration in relativistic shocks based on Monte Carlo techniques. This Monte Carlo model uses a semi-phenomenological description of particle scattering which allows it to calculate the back-reaction of accelerated particles on the shock structure on length and momentum scales which are currently beyond the range of microscopic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations.

description: Coherence distillation is a basic information-theoretic task in the resource theory of coherence. In this paper, we present the necessary and sufficient conditions under which a mixed state can be distilled into a pure coherent state via stochastic incoherent operations (sIOs). With the help of this result, we further show the following: (i) Any $2$-dimensional coherent state is distillable via sIOs if and only if it is a pure coherent state; (ii) a state $ρ$ is n-distillable via sIOs if and only if it is 1-distillable; and (iii) the set of distillable states via stochastic maximally incoherent operations is identical to the set of distillable states via sIOs. Finally, we analyze the reason why sIO is stronger than stochastic strictly incoherent operations when we use them to distill a coherent state.

description: Breast reconstruction surgery, post mastectomy (PMBR), plays a significant role in the physical and emotional recovery of individuals. Over the years, implant based reconstructive surgery has become the commonest form of breast reconstruction worldwide. The biggest concern therefore with this procedure is development of an intractable post operative infection with an incidence rate of 1-30% which can lead to implant loss and the devastating effect this has on the patients psyche.While there is existing literature addressing breast implant surgery, prophylactic antibiotic use, and infection prevention strategies individually, a comprehensive overview of the collective evidence is lacking. There is a need for a systematic scoping review that maps the available literature, identifies key concepts, and highlights evidence gaps in the context of managing implant-based breast reconstruction infections with peri-operative antibiotics.
For this reason, a systematic review aimed at reviewing the current evidence in the infection prevention and management in implant-based surgery is vital.

description: We present an improved way for imaging the local density of states with a scanning tunneling microscope, which consists in mapping the surface topography while keeping the differential conductance (d$I$/d$V$) constant. When archetypical C$_{60}$ molecules on Cu(111) are imaged with this method, these so-called iso-d$I$/d$V$ maps are in excellent agreement with theoretical simulations of the isodensity contours of the molecular orbitals. A direct visualization and unambiguous identification of superatomic C$_{60}$ orbitals and their hybridization is then possible.

description: Motivation is a driving force to get a task done. It is no different for students. In order to graduate with a high school diploma, students need to be motivated to complete the required assignments. Students with Emotional Disabilities (ED), who often have behaviors that make it harder for them to be engaged in class need something more than their same age peers to be motivated to work through their daily schoolwork. The investigator conducted a needs-assessment survey that gave further insight of what teachers currently know about motivating students with ED, their attitudes towards students with ED and motivational strategies they are aware of. The major findings from this research stressed that teachers do not have all the tools they need to successfully motivate students with ED. These results led to a handbook that provided strategies to use and materials to go along with the research.
A novel supersymmetric extension of BMS symmetries at null infinity

description: We show that we can combine the (complex, self-dual) BMS vector fields with the recently defined BMS twistors to obtain a new supersymmetric extension of the BMS symmetries at null infinity. We compare our construction to other supersymmetric extensions of the BMS algebra proposed in the context of supergravity. Unlike the standard constructions the anticommutator in our superalgebra generates all the BMS vector fields including the Lorentz transformations. We also show that there exists a projection from our BMS Lie superalgebra to the global subalgebra of the Neveu-Schwarz supersymmetries on a 2-sphere, which are commonly considered in string theory and 2-dimensional conformal field theory.

Topical Review: optics of exciton-plasmon nanomaterials

description: This review provides a brief introduction to the physics of coupled exciton-plasmon systems, the theoretical description and experimental manifestation of such phenomena, followed by an account of the state-of-the-art methodology for the numerical simulations of such phenomena and supplemented by a number of FORTRAN codes, by which the interested reader can introduce himself/herself to the practice of such simulations. Applications to CW light scattering as well as transient response and relaxation are described. Particular attention is given to so-called strong coupling limit, where the hybrid exciton-plasmon nature of the system response is strongly expressed. While traditional descriptions of such phenomena usually rely on analysis of the electromagnetic response of inhomogeneous dielectric environments that individually support plasmon and exciton excitations, here we explore also the consequences of a more detailed description of the molecular environment in terms of its quantum density matrix (applied in a mean field approximation level). Such a description makes it possible to account for characteristics that cannot be described by the dielectric response model: the effects of dephasing on the molecular response on one hand, and nonlinear response on the other. It also highlights the still missing important ingredients in the numerical approach, in particular its limitation to a classical description of the radiation field and its reliance on a mean field description of the many-body molecular system. We end our review with an outlook to the near future, where these limitations will be addressed and new novel applications of the numerical approach will be pursued.

description: The optical response of hierarchical materials is convoluted, which hinders their direct study and property control. Transparent wood (TW) is an emerging biocomposite in this category, which adds optical function to the structural properties of wood. Nano- and microscale inhomogeneities in composition, structure and at interfaces strongly affect light transmission and haze. While interface manipulation can tailor TW properties, the realization of optically clear wood requires detailed understanding of light-TW interaction mechanisms. Here we show how material scattering and absorption coefficients can be extracted from a combination of experimental spectroscopic measurements and a photon diffusion model. Contributions from different length scales can thus be deciphered and quantified. It is shown that forward scattering dominates haze in TW, primarily caused by refractive index mismatch between the wood substrate and the polymer phase. Rayleigh scattering from the wood cell wall and absorption from residual lignin have minor effects on transmittance, but the former affects haze. Results provide guidance for material design of transparent hierarchical composites towards desired optical functionality; we demonstrate experimentally how transmittance and haze of TW can be controlled over a broad range.
Cataloguing Compact Sources in MERGHERS Pilot Fields

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The MeerKAT Exploration of Relics, Giant Halos, and Extragalactic Radio Sources (MERGHERS) targets galaxy clusters over a wide range of mass and redshift with relatively short (~1-2 hr) integration times. MERGHERS's main science goal concerns studies of diffuse radio emission within the clusters themselves. However, given MeerKAT's brightness sensitivity and sensitivity to a large range of spatial scales, a single pointing can be exploited for a wide variety of science questions. To facilitate greater scientific exploitation of the MeerKAT data, we have generated robust source catalogues with high purity and completeness from the full fields of view of the initial MERGHERS pilot targets. In this talk I will present science results, specifically star formation rate studies of MERGHERS cluster and field galaxies, using our generated catalogues which have a combined number of more than eight thousand sources.

description: We study the UV divergences in the action of the "Wheeler-de Witt patch" in asymptotically AdS spacetimes, which has been conjectured to be dual to the computational complexity of the state of the dual field theory on a spatial slice of the boundary. We show that including a surface term in the action on the null boundaries which ensures invariance under coordinate transformations has the additional virtue of removing a stronger than expected divergence, making the leading divergence proportional to the proper volume of the boundary spatial slice. We compare the divergences in the action to divergences in the volume of a maximal spatial slice in the bulk, finding that the qualitative structure is the same, but subleading divergences have different relative coefficients in the two cases.
