description: We study the transport equation describing a dense system of gluons, in the small scattering angle approximation, taking into account medium-generated effective masses of the gluons. We focus on the case of overpopulated systems that are driven to Bose-Einstein condensation on their way to thermalization. The presence of a mass modifies the dispersion relation of the gluon, as compared to the massless case, but it is shown that this does not change qualitatively the scaling behavior in the vicinity of the onset.

description: In this paper we analyse the genetic evolution of a diploid hermaphroditic population, which is modelled by a three-type nonlinear birth-and-death process with competition and Mendelian reproduction. In a recent paper, Collet et al., 2013 have shown that, on the mutation time-scale, the process converges to the Trait-Substitution Sequence of adaptive dynamics, stepping from one homozygotic state to another with higher fitness. We prove that, under the assumption that a dominant allele is also the fittest one, the recessive allele survives for a time of order at least K^{1/4-a}, where K is the size of the population and a>0.

description: The $ν=12/5$ fractional quantum Hall plateau observed in $\mathrm{GaAs}$ semiconductor wells is a suspect in the search for non-Abelian Fibonacci anyons. Using the infinite density matrix renormalization group, we find clear evidence that fillings $ν= 12/5$ and $ν=13/5$ are in the $k = 3$ Read-Rezayi phase in the absence of particle-hole symmetry-breaking effects. The lowest energy charged excitation is identified as a non-Abelian Fibonacci anyon, distinguished from its Abelian counterpart by its local quadrupole moment. However, several experiments at $ν= 13/5$ observe a re-entrant integer quantum Hall effect, implying particle-hole symmetry is broken. We rule out spin polarization as the origin of the asymmetry. Further, we point out extremely close energetic competition between the Read-Rezayi phase and a re-entrant integer quantum Hall phase. This competition suggests that even small particle-hole symmetry-breaking perturbations can explain the experimentally observed asymmetry between $ν= 12/5$ and $13/5$. We find that at $ν=12/5$ Landau level mixing favors the Read-Rezayi phase over the re-entrant phase.

title: The role of CaSR signalling in adipocytes and its regulation by ADMA
Creators: name: Higgins, Erin Dawn
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2023

description: The amino acid sensitive calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) plays a critical role in regulating extracellular calcium ([Ca2+]o) levels. In addition to maintaining [Ca2+] homeostasis, the CaSR is involved in a variety of non-calciotropic functions, among which it has emerged as a mediator of adipocyte (patho)physiology. Recent work in our lab has revealed that adipocyte hypertrophy is stimulated by the amino acid asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) via a nitric oxideindependent, CaSR pathway. However, the underpinning mechanisms and relevance in adipocytes was not clearly identified. This thesis aimed to delineate CaSR signalling pathways in vitro, and subsequently test the effect of ADMA on CaSR downstream signalling and functions. CaSR was investigated first in HEK293 cells overexpressing CaSR, which showed CaSR-dependent ERK1/2 signalling in response to pharmacological CaSR stimulation and exogenous ADMA. Next, CaSR/ADMA signalling pathways were examined using 3T3-L1 cells modelling mature adipocytes. Agonist-induced CaSR signalling caused adipocyte hypertrophy, leptin secretion and lipogenic gene expression. ADMA enlarged adipocytes, and ADMA-induced lipogenic gene expression was perturbed by CaSR blockade indicating ADMA/CaSR crosstalk in adipocytes. However, ADMA was unable to fully replicate the effects of CaSR acting in adipocytes highlighting the complexity of CaSR signalling pathways requiring further investigation. Adipose tissue (AT) dysfunction is a key mechanism linking metabolic disorders and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The CaSR is associated with CVD, but the relevance of adipocyte CaSR in cardiovascular health has not been directly examined. Therefore, this thesis also aimed to investigate the function of adipocyte CaSR, and determine its significance in AT and cardiovascular biology. To investigate the role of adipocyte CaSR in vivo, this thesis generated a murine model of adipocyte-specific CaSR deficiency. In female mice specifically, body weight, adipocyte size and AT-induced vascular contractility was reduced. This thesis establishes ADMA as a potentially novel ligand of CaSR, and demonstrates that adipocyte CaSR can impact on AT biology as well as cardiometabolic health in the intact animal.

description: OBJECTIVE: To determine whether preprocessing chief complaints before automatically classifying them into syndromic categories improves classification performance. METHODS: We preprocessed chief complaints using two preprocessors (CCP and EMT-P) and evaluated whether classification performance increased for a probabilistic classifier (CoCo) or for a keyword-based classifier (modification of the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene chief complaint coder (KC)). RESULTS: CCP exhibited high accuracy (85%) in preprocessing chief complaints but only slightly improved CoCo's classification performance for a few syndromes. EMT-P, which splits chief complaints into multiple problems, substantially increased CoCo's sensitivity for all syndromes. Preprocessing with CCP or EMT-P only improved KC's sensitivity for the Constitutional syndrome. CONCLUSION: Evaluation of preprocessing systems should not be limited to accuracy of the preprocessor but should include the effect of preprocessing on syndromic classification. Splitting chief complaints into multiple problems before classification is important for CoCo, but other preprocessing steps only slightly improved classification performance for CoCo and a keyword-based classifier.

description: Dirac semi-metals show a linear electronic dispersion in three dimension described by two copies of the Weyl equation, a theoretical description of massless relativistic fermions. At the surface of a crystal, the breakdown of fermion chirality is expected to produce topological surface states without any counterparts in high-energy physics nor conventional condensed matter systems, the so-called "Fermi Arcs". Here we present Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations involving the Fermi Arc states in Focused Ion Beam prepared microstructures of Cd$_3$As$_2$. Their unusual magnetic field periodicity and dependence on sample thickness can be well explained by recent theoretical work predicting novel quantum paths weaving the Fermi Arcs together with chiral bulk states, forming "Weyl orbits". In contrast to conventional cyclotron orbits, these are governed by the chiral bulk dynamics rather than the common momentum transfer due to the Lorentz force. Our observations provide evidence for direct access to the topological properties of charge in a transport experiment, a first step towards their potential application.

description: Comparative Effectiveness Research (CER) is designed to provide research evidence on the effectiveness and risks of different therapeutic options on the basis of data compiled from subpopulations of patients with similar medical conditions. Electronic Health Record (EHR) system contain large volumes of patient data that could be used for CER, but the data contained in EHR system are typically accessible only in formats that are not conducive to rapid synthesis and interpretation of therapeutic outcomes. In the time-pressured clinical setting, clinicians faced with large amounts of patient data in formats that are not readily interpretable often feel 'information overload'. Decision support tools that enable rapid access at the point of care to aggregate data on the most effective therapeutic outcomes derived from CER would greatly aid the clinical decision-making process and individualize patient care. In this manuscript, we highlight the role that visual analytics can play in CER-based clinical decision support. We developed a 'VisualDecisionLinc' (VDL) tool prototype that uses visual analytics to provide summarized CER-derived data views to facilitate rapid interpretation of large amounts of data. We highlight the flexibility that visual analytics offers to gain an overview of therapeutic options and outcomes and if needed, to instantly customize the evidence to the needs of the patient or clinician. The VDL tool uses visual analytics to help the clinician evaluate and understand the effectiveness and risk of different therapeutic options for different subpopulations of patients.
Approaches to inverse-probability-of-treatment–weighted estimation with concurrent treatments
Creators: name: Brookhart, M. Alan
name: Ellis, Alan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: Objectives: In a setting with two concurrent treatments, inverse-probability-of-treatment weights can be used to estimate the joint treatment effects or the marginal effect of one treatment while taking the other to be a confounder. We explore these two approaches in a study of intravenous iron use in hemodialysis patients treated concurrently with epoetin alfa (EPO). Study Design and Setting: We linked US Renal Data System data with electronic health records (2004–2008) from a large dialysis provider. Using a retrospective cohort design with 776,203 records from 117,050 regular hemodialysis patients, we examined a composite outcome: mortality, myocardial infarction, or stroke. Results: With EPO as a joint treatment, inverse-probability-of-treatment weights were unstable, confidence intervals for treatment effects were wide, covariate balance was unsatisfactory, and the treatment and outcome models were sensitive to omission of the baseline EPO covariate. By handling EPO exposure as a confounder instead of a joint treatment, we derived stable weights and balanced treatment groups on measured covariates. Conclusions: In settings with concurrent treatments, if only one treatment is of interest, then including the other in the treatment model as a confounder may result in more stable treatment effect estimates. Otherwise, extreme weights may necessitate additional analysis steps.

description: This paper investigates the exponential stability of abstract mean field systems in their synchronized state. We analyze stability by studying the linearized system and demonstrate the existence of an exponentially stable invariant manifold. Our focus is on the equilibrium stability under synchronization. We provide a comprehensive analysis of both linear and nonlinear cases of the system. Additionally, we prove the existence of stable limit cycles and establish a relation between the dynamics in linear and nonlinear frameworks.

description: Few-magnon bound states in quantum spin chains have been long studied and attracted much recent attentions. For a higher-spin ferromagnetic XXZ chain with single-ion anisotropy, several features regarding the evolution of the low-lying two-magnon bound states with varying wave number were observed in the literature. However, most of these observations are only qualitatively understood due to the lack of analytical tools. By combining a set of exact two-magnon Bloch states and a plane-wave ansatz, we achieve a complete solution of the two-magnon problem in such a system. We identify parameter regions that support different types of two-magnon bound states, with the boundaries defined by algebraic equations. We discover for the first time a narrow region in which two single-ion bound states coexist. We show that the phase diagrams for distinct wave numbers are similar to each other, which enables us to map the evolution of the bound states to the rectilinear movement of a representative point for given parameters in a rescaled phase diagram. This dynamic picture provides quantitative interpretations of the observed features.

title: A morphological exploration into gender inclusiveness and environmental attitudes concerning Maker practices in Makerspaces in the United Kingdom, Germany and Austria
Creators: name: Loose, Elisabeth
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Making, Maker Movement, Maker culture, gender, environmental sustainability, morphology, Freeden, Makerspace.

description: This dissertation explores the connection between amateur technology making, gender inclusiveness and environmental protection within the Maker movement. Specifically, it asks whether including more women into Makerspaces in the United Kingdom, Germany and Austria would increase positive environmental impacts of Making practices in those spaces or, vice-versa, if increasing these spaces’ positive environmental impact would attract more women to join in. To answer this question, a social constructivist position is adopted. Through a convergent multi-level mixed method design that employs short interviews at Maker Faires, an online survey, and in-depth interviews, 565 Makers in the United Kingdom, Germany and Austria have been consulted. The study examines its question through three steps: firstly, it devises a Making morphology which is necessary in order to differentiate between a variety of Making constellations; secondly, it examines if and how women are excluded from Makerspaces within a specifically devised Makerspace morphology for the UK, Germany and Austria; and thirdly, it explores women’s and men’s environmental considerations within their Making practice. The study concludes that, although women exhibit more environmentally friendly behaviour, they face increased challenges in joining Makerspace communities and ‘just adding them’ might not be enough to achieve sustainable inclusiveness. A masculine and patriarchal culture within Making communities is visible in the developed morphology, which often hinders women from simply joining in. The study, therefore, develops a women-inclusive morphology for Makerspaces which is more inclusive and environmentally friendly. It concludes that even though there is the potential for increased gender-diversity sparking more pro-environmental practices, and vice-versa, gender-inclusion especially appears to be a rather complex challenge that makes a straightforward answer to the question problematic. Equally, individual communities are too complex to make broad, deterministic claims. Finally, recommendations for further research and attributes of Makerspace communities to create more inclusive and environmentally sustainable communities are presented.

description: We theoretically show that the dipole force of an ensemble of quantum emitters embedded in a dielectric nanosphere can be exploited to achieve near-field optical levitation. The key ingredient is that the polarizability from the ensemble of embedded quantum emitters can be larger than the bulk polarizability of the sphere, thereby enabling the use of repulsive optical potentials and consequently the levitation using optical near-fields. In levitated cavity quantum optomechanics, this could be used to boost the single-photon coupling by combining larger polarizability to mass ratio, larger field gradients, and smaller cavity volumes while remaining in the resolved sideband regime and at room temperature. A case study is done with a nanodiamond containing a high-density of silicon-vacancy color centers that is optically levitated in the evanescent field of a tappered nano-fiber and coupled to a high-finesse microsphere cavity.

title: An empirical investigation of information technology adoption behaviour in banks in Bahrain
Creators: name: Ghuloom, Mohamed Ali Abdulla
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: Banking, Information technology.

description: This thesis is an empirical investigation of information technology (IT) adoption behaviour within the banking industry in a developing country, which is Bahrain. It aims to provide an understanding of IT strategy formation processes, the drivers of the adoption behaviour, the influence of vendors and others on the adoption process, the characteristics of these banks' cultures and their effects on the banks' adoption approach, and the banks' approach to collective IT projects. The nature of the research questions mentioned above suggests the necessity of qualitative research. There are eleven case studies presented in the thesis based on semi structured and unstructured interviews with representatives of top management and IT units within the banks. Other informants from other non-banking organisations were interviewed as well, to further clarify some of the topics raised by these banks. The IT strategy formation process within the banks went into different phases. During the early phases they were more ad hoc in nature. In later phases new patterns emerged amongst the banks. The incursion of the strategic discourse within these banks and subsequently their adoption behaviour were influenced by the changes that occurred within the banks' external and internal environments. Three forms of strategy formation patterns were identified. The first was amongst two of the small local banks. The strategies were informal, ad hoc in nature, and driven by a 'one man show'. The political influence of the sole product champions was essential for the adoption of the strategy and IT within these banks. The second form of strategy formation pattern was identified with three local banks: two big banks, followed thereafter by one small bank. The strategy formation was formal, influenced by the consultants who set the path to formalise the process, and the process took place within systems steering committees which included the top management and representatives from the support units. By virtue of their power and authority, the views of the top management dominated within the systems steering committees; however, input from the IT units was essential as the top management lacked the knowledge to take informed decisions without them. The board of directors was involved in the process of approving the IT strategies. We have termed this process "formal-rational", although in some cases it was not remote from the micro-political struggle. The third form of strategy formation process was identified with branches of foreign banks. These banks' strategies were 'imposed strategies' from their groups outside Bahrain, were global in nature, had a 'trickle-down' effect, and were less responsive to local changes and needs in Bahrain.

description: We study the magnetic excitation spectra of resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) at the $L$-edge from undoped cuprates beyond the fast collision approximation. We analyse the effect of the symmetry breaking ground state on the RIXS process of the Heisenberg model by using a projection procedure. We derive the expressions of the scattering amplitude in both one-magnon and two-magnon excitation channels. Each of them consists of the isotropic and anisotropic contributions. The latter is a new finding and attributed to the long range order of the ground state. The presence of anisotropic terms is supported by numerical calculations on a two-dimensional spin cluster. We express the RIXS spectra in the form of spin-correlation functions with the coefficients evaluated on the cluster, and calculate the function in a two dimensional system within the $1/S$ expansion. Due to the anisotropic terms, the spectral intensities are considerably enhanced around momentum transfer $\textbf{q}=0$ in both one-magnon and two-magnon excitation channels. This finding may be experimentally confirmed by examining carefully the $\textbf{q}$-dependence of the spectra.

description: This topical review article gives an overview of the interplay between quantum information theory and thermodynamics of quantum systems. We focus on several trending topics including the foundations of statistical mechanics, resource theories, entanglement in thermodynamic settings, fluctuation theorems and thermal machines. This is not a comprehensive review of the diverse field of quantum thermodynamics; rather, it is a convenient entry point for the thermo-curious information theorist. Furthermore this review should facilitate the unification and understanding of different interdisciplinary approaches emerging in research groups around the world.

title: Claude Lefort e Michel Foucault: due traiettorie della filosofia francese del secondo Novecento
Creators: name: Di Pierro, Mattia
Publisher: name: Università di Pisa
Year: 2020

description: This essay proposes a first exploration on the relationship, the continuities and especially the oppositions, between the theories of Michel Foucault and Claude Lefort. We will follow the references in the texts of both authors, focusing on the 1970s. Their proximity, due to the common reference to phenomenology and to the critique to structuralism, is soon replaced by a profound difference visible in the conceptions of work (œuvre), interpretation and in their definitions of politics and power.
Stable evaluation of Green's functions in cylindrically stratified regions with uniaxial anisotropic layers
Creators: name: Moon, H.
name: Donderici, B.
name: Teixeira, F. L.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We present a robust algorithm for the computation of electromagnetic fields radiated by point sources (Hertzian dipoles) in cylindrically stratified media where each layer may exhibit material properties (permittivity, permeability, and conductivity) with uniaxial anisotropy. Analytical expressions are obtained based on the spectral representation of the tensor Green's function based on cylindrical Bessel and Hankel eigenfunctions, and extended for layered uniaxial media. Due to the poor scaling of these eigenfunctions for extreme arguments and/or orders, direct numerical evaluation of such expressions can produce numerical instability, i.e., underflow, overflow, and/or round-off errors under finite precision arithmetics. To circumvent these problems, we develop a numerically stable formulation through suitable rescaling of various expressions involved in the computational chain, to yield a robust algorithm for all parameter ranges. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the robustness of the formulation including cases of practical interest to geophysical exploration.

Sondagens eléctricas verticais, serão mesmo verticais?
Creators: name: Matias, M. J. Senos

Year: 1987

description: Sondagens eléctricas, por vezes chamadas sondagens eléctricas verticais (SEV), têm sido usadas em áreas de geologia complexa, onde a resistividade do terreno pode variar acentuadamente com a direcção do dispositivo electródico de medida. No enatanto, mesmo nestes casos, é costume usar técnicas, quer de campo quer de interpretação, desenvolvidas para situações em que a resistividade dos terrenos só varia com a profundida. No presente artigo as dificuldade inerentes a tal prática são analisadas e ilustradas usando quer dados de campo quer dados provenientes de simulação sobre modelos reduzidos. Em seguida são apresentadas e discutidas técnicas alternativas aplicáveis a áreas em que a resistividade varia com a orientação. Finalmente tecem-se algumas considerações económicas sobre o uso destas técnicas alternativas.

Product evaluations of lefschetz determinants for grassmannians and of determinants of multinomial coefficients
Creators: name: Proctor, Robert A.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1990

description: A general result which produces product evaluations of determinants of certain raising operators for sl(2) representations is obtained. The most combinatorially interesting cases occur for self-dual raising operators of Peck posets. Applications include the following: A nice product expression is found for the determinant of the Lefschetz duality linear transformation on the cohomology of a Grassmannian. Known product expressions for the cardinalities of two sets of plane partitions are re-derived. The appearance of rising factorials for the hooks in one of these product expressions is “explained” by the appearance of rising factorials in sl(2) determinants. A higher dimensional generalization in a certain sense of MacMahon's famous product enumeration result for Ferrers diagrams contained in a box is stated in the context of nonintersecting lattice paths.

description: We prove that any numerically exceptional collection of maximal length, consisting of line bundles, on a smooth del Pezzo surface is a standard augmentation in the sense of L.Hille and M.Perling. We deduce that any such collection is exceptional and full.
description: 20 pages. v2: major changes. More simple proof of the main theorem is given. Consideration of toric vectors and three-block collections is not needed now hence omitted. v3: some generalizations are made. Main theorem is proved now for numerically exceptional collections (rather than strong exceptional collections)

A Möbius Identity Arising from Modularity in a Matroid Bilinear Form
Creators: name: Brylawski, T.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2000

description: The matrix for the bilinear form of the flag space of a matroid has (with respect to an appropriate basis) a tensor product structure when the matroid has a modular flat . When determinants are taken, an identity is obtained for the rho function (a certain product of the Möbius and beta functions) summed over flats with a fixed intersection with . When the identity is interpreted for Dowling lattices and finite projective spaces, identities with similar combinatorial proofs are obtained for binomial and Gaussian coefficients, respectively.

description: Since their first meeting in 1952, Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze have forged a relationship of intense friendship, based on reciprocal admiration. They had, among other things, a strong bond to the work of Nietzsche. In 1977, a series of disagreements between them led to a rupture. They did not see each other again until Foucault’s disappearance in 1984. Nevertheless, Deleuze paid a vibrant philosophical tribute to his friend’s work, published posthomously, by dedicating to him an illuminating research on the diagonal character of his thought.

description: Nos depósitos do Cretácico Superior do sector da Bacia Ocidental Portuguesa, foram definidas quatro associações de fácies (I, II, III, IV) pertencentes a um complexo de planície mareal.A associação I corresponde a um ambiente submareal, representado por uma laguna protegida do mar aberto por uma ilha barreira; integra fácies de laguna central e marginal e depósitos de "vaschover".O ambiente intermareal, associação II, é constituído por uma vasta planície de predomínio argiloso - "aud-flat" - submetida a oscilações do nível de água e períodos de exposição sua área. Distinguem-se três zonas morfológicas: baixa "mud-flat" relacionada com as margens da laguna, inetrmédia e alta "mud flat" colonizada por plantas halófitas.A associação III corresponde a canais mareais de elevada sinuosidade; dadas as suas características, distinguem-se dois tipo de canais em distinta posição na planície mareal: "tidal creeks de pequenas dimensaões, arquitectura simples e normalmente associados a barras mareais e, "tidal inlets" de maiores dimensões e arquitectura complexa.A associação IV, pertence ao ambiente supramareal, no qual os processos fundamentais terão sido: colonização por vegetação e acumulação de matéria orgânica nos níveis inferiores e a transição com a alta "mud-flat", fortes oscilações do nível de água e prolongadas exposições subaéreas nos níveis superiores onde as consições evaporíticas são preponderantes.
