Subjects: National Environmental Policy Act, NEPA, Environmental Impact Statement, EIS, environmental protection, infrastructure projects, Federal Highway Administration, transportation planning.

description: The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), enacted by Congress in 1969, revolutionized environmental protection in the United States by introducing an environmental review process into decision-making practices. This process involves the creation of detailed Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) to assess the environmental effects of various projects, including infrastructure developments. EIS enables multi-disciplinary collaboration and provides a framework for choosing the most environmentally friendly project implementation. Federal agencies like the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) play a crucial role in examining and mitigating potential impacts on both human and natural environments resulting from state highway construction. This paper explores the significance of NEPA and the EIS process in fostering harmony between humanity and nature while evaluating various project alternatives within the context of transportation planning

description: The scope of the Baldwin effect was recently called into question by two papers that closely examined the seminal work of Hinton and Nowlan. To this date there has been no demonstration of its necessity in empirically challenging tasks. Here we show that the Baldwin effect is capable of evolving few-shot supervised and reinforcement learning mechanisms, by shaping the hyperparameters and the initial parameters of deep learning algorithms. Furthermore it can genetically accommodate strong learning biases on the same set of problems as a recent machine learning algorithm called MAML "Model Agnostic Meta-Learning" which uses second-order gradients instead of evolution to learn a set of reference parameters (initial weights) that can allow rapid adaptation to tasks sampled from a distribution. Whilst in simple cases MAML is more data efficient than the Baldwin effect, the Baldwin effect is more general in that it does not require gradients to be backpropagated to the reference parameters or hyperparameters, and permits effectively any number of gradient updates in the inner loop. The Baldwin effect learns strong learning dependent biases, rather than purely genetically accommodating fixed behaviours in a learning independent manner.

description: The spectrum of the massive Schwinger model in the strong coupling region is obtained by using the light-front Tamm-Dancoff (LFTD) approximation up to including six-body states. We numerically confirm that the two-meson bound state has a negligibly small six-body component. Emphasis is on the usefulness of the information about states (wave functions). It is used for identifying the three-meson bound state among the states below the three-meson threshold. We also show that the two-meson bound state is well described by the wave function of the relative motion.

description: Energy levels and fine-structure intervals of the $1s2l2l'$ core-excited states are calculated for ions along the Li isoelectronic sequence from argon to uranium. The calculation is performed by the relativistic configuration-interaction method adapted for treatment of autoionizing core-excited states. The calculational approach includes the relativistic treatment of the nuclear recoil effect, the leading QED shifts as delivered by the model QED operator, and the frequency dependence of the Breit interaction. The $1s2l2l'-1s^22l$ transition energies are obtained by combining the present results for the $1s2l2l'$ states with energies of the $1s^22l$ states compiled from previous calculations. All theoretical energies are supplied with uncertainty estimates. Our theoretical predictions for the $1s2l2l'-1s^22l$ transitions are significantly more accurate than the best experimental results available today and can be used for calibrating experimental X-ray spectra.

description: We study the problem of synthesizing a policy that maximizes the entropy of a Markov decision process (MDP) subject to a temporal logic constraint. Such a policy minimizes the predictability of the paths it generates, or dually, maximizes the exploration of different paths in an MDP while ensuring the satisfaction of a temporal logic specification. We first show that the maximum entropy of an MDP can be finite, infinite or unbounded. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions under which the maximum entropy of an MDP is finite, infinite or unbounded. We then present an algorithm which is based on a convex optimization problem to synthesize a policy that maximizes the entropy of an MDP. We also show that maximizing the entropy of an MDP is equivalent to maximizing the entropy of the paths that reach a certain set of states in the MDP. Finally, we extend the algorithm to an MDP subject to a temporal logic specification. In numerical examples, we demonstrate the proposed method on different motion planning scenarios and illustrate the relation between the restrictions imposed on the paths by a specification, the maximum entropy, and the predictability of paths.

description: The research scope of this paper is to apply spatial object based image analysis (OBIA) method for processing panchromatic multispectral image covering study area of Brussels for urban mapping. The aim is to map different land cover types and more specifically, built-up areas from the very high resolution (VHR) satellite image using OBIA approach. A case study covers urban landscapes in the eastern areas of the city of Brussels, Belgium. Technically, this research was performed in eCognition raster processing software demonstrating excellent results of image segmentation and classification. The tools embedded in eCognition enabled to perform image segmentation and objects classification processes in a semi-automated regime, which is useful for the city planning, spatial analysis and urban growth analysis. The combination of the OBIA method together with technical tools of the eCognition demonstrated applicability of this method for urban mapping in densely populated areas, e.g. in megapolis and capital cities. The methodology included multiresolution segmentation and classification of the created objects.

description: A new analytical nonmodal approach to investigate the plasma instabilities driven by the sheared current is presented and applied to the analysis of the linear evolution of the Simon-Hoh (S-H) instability of a plasma in the inhomogeneous electric field. We found analytically strong nonmodal growth for this instability which is missed completely in the normal modes analysis but dominates the normal mode growth when the shearing rate of the current velocity is above the growth rate of the S-H instability with uniform current. It includes also the nonmodal growth for the subcritical perturbations, which are suppressed in plasma with uniform Hall current.
Minimal presentations of groups
Creators: name: Tweedale, Michael Peter
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2007

description: This thesis proposes two new families of counter examples to the celebrated relation gap problem: firstly certain finite-index subgroups of right-angled Artin groups, and secondly groups with torsion arising as free products of HNN extensions of finite abelian groups. We prove a number of results relating the size of minimal presentations of the Artin subgroups to topological conditions on the associated flag complexes. We construct explicit presentations of these groups that provide considerable insight into when and why large families of relations are needed to present these groups, and cumulative evidence that these subgroups are extremely strong candidates for groups with relation gaps. For the examples with torsion, we prove that our groups have presentations whose associated relation modules can be generated by one fewer element than one expects. We prove that any presentation with this number of relations must be of a peculiar form. We also show that a criterion ofM. Lustig provides a non-trivial obstruction to the existence of relation gaps, but that for the presentations we are studying, this obstruction never arises. Finally, we give an explicit description of a finite 3-complex that is a counterexample to the D(2) onjecture if our groups have relation gaps.
Intermediate-Mass Black Hole Growth and Feedback in Dwarf Galaxies at High Redshifts

description: Intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs: masses between $100 - 10^{6} M_{\odot}$) historically comprise of an elusive population compared to stellar-mass and supermassive BHs. Recently IMBHs have started to be observed at the centers of low-mass galaxies. We perform cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of $(2 h^{-1} ~ {\rm Mpc})^3$ comoving boxes and investigate the growth and feedback of central IMBHs in dwarf galaxies (DGs). The earliest BHs appear at $z \sim 18 - 25$, and grow thereafter by accreting gas and by merger with other BHs. We find that, starting from $10^{2} M_{\odot}$, it is possible to build up IMBHs of a few$\times 10^{5} - 10^{6} M_{\odot}$ by $z = 5$, when the BHs are seeded in halos less massive than $4 \times 10^{7} M_{\odot}$. The BH accretion rates increase with time, and reaches $\dot{M}_{\rm BH} = (0.2 - 0.8) \dot{M}_{\rm Edd}$ for the massive IMBHs by $z = 4$. The star formation rate density (SFRD) evolution of the DGs (stellar mass $10^{5} - 10^{8} M_{\odot}$) has a peak plateau between $z = 4 - 6$. Star formation is quenched between $z = 9 - 4$. The SFRD is reduced by factors up to $3$, when the BHs have grown to a few times $10^5 M_{\odot}$. Even in the presence of stronger SN-driven mass ejection, the BHs continue to grow up to $z \sim 6$, sustained by gas inflows driven by galaxy mergers and interactions in a cosmological environment. Our conclusions, based on numerical simulation results, support the scenario that early feedback from IMBHs in gas-rich DGs at $z = 5 - 8$ can potentially solve several anomalies in the DG mass range within the concordance $Λ$CDM cosmological scenario (Silk 2017). Our results suggest that IMBHs at DG centers grow faster than their host galaxies in the early Universe, and the resulting BH feedback turns the DGs and the BHs dormant.

Within our momentum space discretization we obtain a second order phase transition as soon as the connected 3-point function is included. However, an additional inclusion of the connected 4-point function still shows a significant influence on the shape of the effective potential and the critical coupling.

description: LISA Pathfinder (LPF) was a European Space Agency mission with the aim to test key technologies for future space-borne gravitational-wave observatories like LISA. The main scientific goal of LPF was to demonstrate measurements of differential acceleration between free-falling test masses at the sub-femto-g level, and to understand the residual acceleration in terms of a physical model of stray forces, and displacement readout noise. A key step toward reaching the LPF goals was the correct calibration of the dynamics of LPF, which was a three-body system composed by two test-masses enclosed in a single spacecraft, and subject to control laws for system stability. In this work, we report on the calibration procedures adopted to calculate the residual differential stray force per unit mass acting on the two test-masses in their nominal positions. The physical parameters of the adopted dynamical model are presented, together with their role on LPF performance. The analysis and results of these experiments show that the dynamics of the system was accurately modeled and the dynamical parameters were stationary throughout the mission. Finally, the impact and importance of calibrating system dynamics for future space-based gravitational wave observatories is discussed.

description: NASA's OSIRIS-REx and JAXA's Hayabusa2 sample-return missions are currently on their way to encounter primitive near-Earth asteroids (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu, respectively. Spectral and dynamical evidence indicates that these near-Earth asteroids originated in the inner part of the main belt. There are several primitive collisional families in this region, and both these asteroids are most likely to have originated in the Polana-Eulalia family complex. We present the expected spectral characteristics of both targets based on our studies of our primitive collisional families in the inner belt: Polana-Eulalia, Erigone, Sulamitis, and Clarissa. Observations were obtained in the framework of our PRIMitive Asteroids Spectroscopic Survey (PRIMASS). Our results are especially relevant to the planning and interpretation of in-situ images and spectra to be obtained by the two spacecraft during the encounters with their targets.

Discretely monitored tenor varying exchange arrangements
Creators: name: Tanpradist, Tanapan
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2006

description: Our subject area of research is Mathematical Finance. In this thesis, we price a novel form of barrier structure which is closely related to a swaption having a continuous time log-normal model, which is the underlying dynamic of the asset, a forward par swap rate. The new feature is where the barrier is monitored before and during the swap period. It is called ”Tenor Varying Barrier Swaption”. It means that even though the exercise date of the swaption is fixed at time t0, the length of the swap may vary according to when the barrier is breached. The pay-off function of the barrier structure is the summation of pay-offs of all possible situations that swap contract can last. In pricing a standard barrier option, the essential part is to calculate the joint probability distribution of Brownian Motion and its running maximum at the fixed time point. However, in our case, the running maximum is measured at the later time beyond the point which we measure Brownian Motion. The novelty in the Mathematics is then in obtaining the probability distribution of Brownian Motion and its running maximum at random distinct time points. The price of Tenor Varying Barrier Swaption is finally obtained via the aid of numerical integration. In addition to that, practically, in the financial market, most barrier structures are monitored discretely. The problem arises when we have to price a discretely monitored barrier swap having a continuous time model as an underlying model of the swap rate dynamic. By modifying the approximation method of Broadie, Glassermann and Kou, we can price of the discretely monitored tenor varying barrier structure successfully. This gives an approximated solution to a new type of interest rate security, which can protect both an investor’s and a writer’s benefits.

description: The massive scalar field theory and the chiral Schwinger model are quantized on a Poincaré disk of radius $ρ$. The amplitudes are derived in terms of hypergeometric functions. The behavior at long distances and near the boundary of some of the relevant correlation functions is studied. The exact computation of the chiral determinant appearing in the Schwinger model is obtained exploiting perturbation theory. This calculation poses interesting mathematical problems, as the Poincaré disk is a noncompact manifold with a metric tensor which diverges approaching the boundary. The results presented in this paper are very useful in view of possible extensions to general Riemann surfaces. Moreover, they could also shed some light in the quantization of field theories on manifolds with constant curvature scalars in higher dimensions.

description: The correct use of energy-dependent single-particle level (s.p.l.) densities within particle-hole state densities based on the equidistant spacing model (ESM) is analysed. First, an analytical expression is obtained following the convolution of energy-dependent excited-particle and hole densities. Next, a comparison is made with results of the ESM formula using average s.p.l. densities for the excited particles and holes, respectively. The Fermi-gas model (FGM) s.p.l. densities calculated at the corresponding average excitation energies are used in both cases. The analysis concerns also the density of particle-hole bound states. The pairing correlations are taken into account while the comparison of various effects includes the exact correction for the Pauli exclusion principle. Quantum-mechanical s.p.l. densities and the continuum effect can also match a corresponding FGM formula, suitable for use within the average energy-dependent partial state density in multistep reaction models.

description: X-ray lines of helium-like calcium (\ion{Ca}{19}) between 3.17~Å and 3.21~Å and associated \ion{Ca}{18} dielectronic satellites have previously been observed in solar flare spectra, and their excitation mechanisms are well established. Dielectronic satellites of lower ionization stages (\ion{Ca}{17}~--~\ion{Ca}{15}) are not as well characterized. Several spectra during a large solar flare in 2001 by the DIOGENESS X-ray spectrometer on the {\em CORONAS-F}\/ spacecraft show the \ion{Ca}{17} and \ion{Ca}{16} satellites as well as lines of ionized argon (\ion{Ar}{17}, \ion{Ar}{16}) including dielectronic satellites. The DIOGENESS spectra are compared with spectra from a synthesis code developed here based on an isothermal assumption with various atomic sources including dielectronic satellite data from the Cowan Hartree--Fock code. Best-fit comparisons are made by varying the temperature as the code's input (Ar/Ca abundance ratio fixed at 0.33); close agreement is achieved although with adjustments to some ion fractions. The derived temperature is close to that derived from the two {\em GOES}\/ X-ray channels, $T_{\rm GOES}$. Some lines are identified for the first time. Similar spectra from the {\em P78-1}\/ spacecraft and the Alcator C-Mod tokamak have also been analyzed and similar agreement obtained. The importance of blends of calcium and argon lines is emphasized, affecting line ratios used for temperature diagnostics. This analysis will be applied to the {\em Solar Maximum Mission}\/ Bent Crystal Spectrometer archive and to X-ray spectra expected from the ChemiX instrument on the Sun-orbiting {\em Interhelioprobe}\/ spacecraft, while the relevance to X-ray spectra from non-solar sources is indicated.

description: Область исследования сосредоточена на прибрежном городе Тайбэй. Экологические изменения города были обнаружены с помощью геопространственного анализа спутниковых снимков. Площади, занимаемые различными типами ландшафта, были проанализированы. Было обнаружено, что разные части города развиваются с разной скоростью и интенсивностью из-за сложного сочетания антропогенных и природных факторов. Результаты показали урбанизацию, деградацию зеленых ареалов, увеличение площадей застроенных территорийс 1990 года. The study area is focused on the coastal city of Taipei. The environmental changes of the city were detected by geospatial analysis of the satellite images. The areas occupied by different landscapes. It was detected that various districts were developing with different rate and intensity due to the complex factors of both human and ecological origin. The results showed urban development, decline of green areas, increase of urban spaces since 1990.

description: En 1681, Anton Van Leeuwenhoek observó en la materia fecal probablemente de alguna persona con diarrea –a través de un microscopio de su invención- un parásito conocido como Giardia spp. Con este descubrimiento se inicia el estudio de la parasitología/microbiología. Sin embargo, muchos siglos antes, los chinos, griegos, egipcios y persas dejaron manuscritos donde se hablaba ya de los parásitos y las enfermedades parasitarias.
La microbiología es el estudio de los microorganismos, de su biología, su ecología y, en nuestro caso, su patogenicidad. Esta definición hace necesaria la de tres conceptos que se incluyen en ella: microorganismo, biología y ecología. Por otra parte, en el caso de la microbiología médica hará referencia a los microorganismos y a la capacidad inherente a ellos de provocar enfermedad en el ser humano dependiendo de sus características especiales. Por microorganismo entendemos cualquier organismo vivo que no sea visible a simple vista. Esta definición operativa queda desbordada cuando se comprueba que organismos estructuralmente similares a los que sólo son observables a simple vista, pueden tener tamaños macroscópicos. Así, los hongos, tanto los inferiores como los superiores, tienen una estructura similar a la de otros individuos microscópicos y por ello se estudian, para ciertos aspectos, dentro de la microbiología. Por otra parte, organismos pluricelulares pueden ser de tamaño tan pequeño que entren dentro de la definición anterior sin dejar por ello de ser estructuralmente tan complejos como cualquier animal superior.

description: Binny begins the interview recalling his youth in Hong Kong with his mother, father, and brother. Together they worked at the family cigarette store until Binny decided to go abroad as a seaman. Binny describes working on a Standard Oil ship, including the opium use by many of the Chinese seamen and his own introduction to the drug. Binny discusses the difficulties of immigrating to the United States; he arrived in New York City at the age of twenty-five. He compares the shift in lifestyle from a seaman to a restaurant worker in New York City, and describes the long hours at restaurants. Binny describes opium use in the U.S., including a Newark, NJ smokehouse (opium den), separate spaces of Chinese and white smokers, and the disappearance of opium from New York City, which pushed him to heroin. Binny explains how he managed to survive using heroin for many years, including maintenance of needles. He describes users detoxing while in jail. He also describes how he did not observe women using opium during his time and concludes by addressing his switch to methadone use

description: We report on spectroscopic studies of hot and ultracold RbSr molecules, and combine the results in an analysis that allows us to fit a potential energy curve (PEC) for the X(1)$^2Σ^+$ ground state bridging the short-to-long-range domains. The ultracold RbSr molecules are created in a $μ$K sample of Rb and Sr atoms and probed by two-colour photoassociation spectroscopy. The data yield the long-range dispersion coefficients $C_6$ and $C_8$, along with the total number of supported bound levels. The hot RbSr molecules are created in a $1000 \,$K gas mixture of Rb and Sr in a heat-pipe oven and probed by thermoluminescence and laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy. We compare the hot molecule data with spectra we simulated using previously published PECs determined by three different ab-initio theoretical methods. We identify several band heads corresponding to radiative decay from the B(2)$^2Σ^+$ state to the deepest bound levels of X(1)$^2Σ^+$. We determine a mass-scaled high-precision model for X(1)$^2Σ^+$ by fitting all data using a single fit procedure. The corresponding PEC is consistent with all data, thus spanning short-to-long internuclear distances and bridging an energy gap of about 75% of the potential well depth, still uncharted by any experiment. We benchmark ab-initio PECs against our results, and give the PEC fit parameters for both X(1)$^2Σ^+$ and B(2)$^2Σ^+$ states. As first outcomes of our analysis, we calculate the $s$-wave scattering properties for all stable isotopic combinations and corroborate the locations of Fano-Feshbach resonances between alkali Rb and closed-shell Sr atoms recently observed [Barbé et al., Nat. Phys., 2018, DOI:10.1038/s41567-018-0169-x]. These results should greatly contribute to the generation of ultracold alkali$-$alkaline-earth dimers, whose applications range from quantum simulation to quantum chemistry.

description: String amplitudes with an arbitrary number of world-sheet boundaries on which the coordinates satisfy Dirichlet boundary conditions are analyzed in a path integral framework. Special attention is payed to the novel divergences associated with such conditions. Certain helicity amplitudes involving massless closed-string states are free of such divergences to all orders in perturbation theory and their behavior can be analysed unambiguously. The high energy fixed-angle behavior of these amplitudes is discussed in the presence of one or two boundaries and the asymptotic behavior of the amplitudes is shown to be power behaved.
