description: The method of matched asymptotic expansions is used to study the canonical problem of steady laminar flow through a narrow two-dimensional channel blocked by a tight-fitting finite-length highly permeable porous obstacle. We investigate the behaviour of the local flow close to the interface between the single-phase and porous regions (governed by the incompressible Navier--Stokes and Darcy flow equations, respectively). We solve for the flow in these inner regions in the limits of low and high Reynolds number, facilitating an understanding of the nature of the transition from Poiseuille to plug to Poiseuille flow in each of these limits. Significant analytic progress is made in the high-Reynolds-number limit, and we explore in detail the rich boundary layer structure that occurs. We consider the three-dimensional generalization to unsteady laminar flow through and around a tight-fitting highly permeable cylindrical porous obstacle within a Hele-Shaw cell. For the high-Reynolds-number limit, we give the coupling conditions and interfacial stress in terms of the outer flow variables, allowing information from a nonlinear three-dimensional problem to be obtained by solving a linear two-dimensional problem. Finally, we illustrate the utility of our analysis by considering the specific example of time-dependent forced far-field flow in a Hele-Shaw cell containing a porous cylinder with a circular cross-section. We determine the internal stress within the porous obstacle, which is key for tissue engineering applications, and the interfacial stress on the boundary of the porous obstacle, which has applications to biofilm erosion. In the high-Reynolds-number limit, we demonstrate that the fluid inertia can result in the cylinder experiencing a time-independent net force, even when the far-field forcing is periodic with zero mean.

description: Millingtonia hortensis L.f. and Oroxylum indicum (L.) Kurz (Bignoniaceae) are native species from the Asian continent. They are popularly used in traditional medicine and their extracts are rich in flavonoids. In this work, ethanolic extracts of stems and leaves of these species were evaluated against the Chikungunya, Zika and Mayaro virus. The extracts were subjected to analysis by ultra-efficient liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. Additionally, M. hortensis leaves extract was fractionated, leading to the isolation of hispidulin. Anti-arboviral activity against the three viruses was detected for M. hortensis leaves extract with EC50 ranging from 37.8 to 134.1 µg/mL and for O. indicum stems extract with EC50 ranging from 18.6 to 55.9 µg/mL. Hispidulin inhibited viral cytopathic effect of MAYV (EC50 value 32.2 µM) and CHIKV (EC50 value 78.8 µM). In LC-DAD-ESI-MS/MS analysis we characterized 25 flavonoids confirming once again the presence of these substances in extracts of these species.

description: When fast cracks become unstable to microscopic branching (micro-branching), fracture no longer occurs in an effective 2D medium. We follow in-plane crack front dynamics via real-time measurements in brittle gels as micro-branching unfolds and progresses. We first show that {\em spatially local} energy balance quantitatively describes crack dynamics, even when translational invariance is badly broken. Furthermore, our results explain micro-branch dynamics; why micro-branches form along spatially localized chains and how finite-time formation of cusps along the crack front leads to their death.

description: Numerical solutions to the 1D steady-state Vlasov-Poisson system are used to develop a straightforward empirical formula for the electric current density transmitted through a vacuum diode (voltage gap) as a function of gap distance, gap voltage, the injected current density, and the average velocity and temperature of injected particles, as well as their charge and mass. This formula generalizes the 1D cold beam Child-Langmuir law (which predicts the maximum transmitted current for mono-energetic particles in a planar diode as a function of gap voltage and distance) to the case where particles are injected with a finite velocity spread. Though this case is of practical importance, no analytical solution is known. Found by a best-fit to results from particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations, the empirical formula characterizes the current transmitted across the diode for an injected velocity distribution of a drifting Maxwellian. It is not meant to yield a precise answer, but approximately characterizes the effect of space charge on transmitted current density over a large input space. The formula allows quick quantitative estimation of the effect of space charge in diode-like devices, such as gate-anode gaps in nanoscale vacuum channel transistors.

description: Polymeric films containing pomegranate peel extract (PPE) can act as a drug-delivery platform for topical treatment of candidiasis. The composition, mechanical resistance, and in vitro antifungal activity of a polymeric film containing PPE at 1.25 mg.mL−1 were investigated. Films were prepared using a solvent casting technique. The incorporation of PPE in the polymeric matrix gave rise to homogeneous, smooth, shiny, and yellowish-brown films. FTIR spectra of the film containing PPE showed differences without compromising the stability of the extract and the matrix. SEM analysis showed the existence of interruptions in the continuity of the films with extract, which promoted a reduction in the mechanical parameters without significantly changing the tensile strength and elongation at break. Films showed adequate mechanical properties and antifungal activity against Candida albicans, C. glabrata, C. krusei and C. tropicalis.
Essays in empirical asset pricing
Creators: name: Chang, Hao
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: This dissertation includes four essays on empirical asset pricing as well as the application of state-space models in this area.The first essay seeks to reconcile the debate about the price effect of risk-neutral skewness (RNS) on stocks. We document positive predictability from short-term skewness, consistent with informed trading, and negative predictability from long-term skewness, consistent with skewness preference. A term spread on RNS captures different information from long- and short-term contracts, resulting in stronger predictability. The quintile portfolio with the lowest spread outperforms that with highest spread by 14.64% annually. The information difference between short- and long-term options explains the pricing difference of their RNS, providing a potential resolution to the debate.The second essay uses a novel sequential Monte Carlo method, the mixture Kalman filter (MKF), to detect periodically collapsing rational bubbles in stock prices. The stock-dividend-bubble system is expressed in a state-space model with Markov regime switching. We apply the MKF to estimate the model for simulated and actual stock data. Our methodology captures the bubble dynamics more successfully than the model without regime-switching, and identifies major bubble collapsing episodes in our sample period. The third essay explains why the correlation between oil price and 10-year TIPS break-even inflation increased dramatically after the financial crisis. We develop a shadow-rate no-arbitrage term structure model to fit nominal yields, TIPS yields and inflation forecasts, and estimate it using the Extended Kalman Filter. Based on the model estimation, we provide empirical evidences showing that the puzzle is because when interest rates bind at the zero lower bound, investors doubt the effectiveness of monetary policy to control deflation. We justify this mechanism theoretically under a general equilibrium framework.The last essay develops an arbitrage-free Nelson-Siegel term structure model with economic factors, estimates the model using the Kalman Filter and reveals the information content of treasury term premium through model decomposition. We find foreign carry trades and cross-border investments have been the key drivers of negative treasury term premium in recent years due to monetary divergence. This poses challenges to conventional term structure models using US-exclusive macro variables to explain treasury dynamics.

description: Combining network pharmacology with molecular docking, our study revealed the candidate targets and mechanisms of Shu Yu Wan (SYW) for treating cervical cancer (CC). The targets associated with CC and active compounds in SYW were identified through TCGA, GeneCards and TCMSP databases. Consequently, a total of 16 active compounds in SYW and 38 common targets related to CC were predicted. Genes TP53 and CDK2 are among the hub genes in the PPI network. The results of GO and KEGG enrichment analyses suggested that SYW exerted pharmacological effects on CC by regulating cellular senescence, p53 signaling pathway, cell cycle, apoptosis, viral carcinogenesis and human papillomavirus infection (HPV) signaling pathway. Finally, molecular docking confirmed a strong binding affinity between the main active compounds of SYW with the core target proteins.

description: Molecular epidemiology studies face a missing data problem, as biospecimen or imaging data are often collected on only a proportion of subjects eligible for study. We investigated all molecular epidemiology studies published as Research Articles, Short Communications, or Null Results in Brief in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention from January 1, 2009, to March 31, 2010, to characterize the extent that missing data were present and to elucidate how the issue was addressed. Of 278 molecular epidemiology studies assessed, most (95%) had missing data on a key variable (66%) and/or used availability of data (often, but not always the biomarker data) as inclusion criterion for study entry (45%). Despite this, only 10% compared subjects included in the analysis with those excluded from the analysis and 88% with missing data conducted a complete-case analysis, a method known to yield biased and inefficient estimates when the data are not missing completely at random. Our findings provide evidence that missing data methods are underutilized in molecular epidemiology studies, which may deleteriously affect the interpretation of results. We provide practical guidelines for the analysis and interpretation of molecular epidemiology studies with missing data.

description: Age is the strongest breast cancer risk factor, with overall breast cancer risk increasing steadily beginning at approximately 30 years of age. However, while breast cancer risk is lower among younger women, young women's breast cancer may be more aggressive. Though several genomic and epidemiologic studies have shown higher prevalence of aggressive, estrogen-receptor negative breast cancer in younger women, the age-related gene expression that predisposes to these tumors is poorly understood. Characterizing age-related patterns of gene expression in normal breast tissues may provide insights on etiology of distinct breast cancer subtypes that arise from these tissues.

We derive formula for a mean first arrival time (MFAT) to a predefined target position reached by a meandering particle and analyze efficiency of the proposed searching strategy by investigating criteria for an optimal (a shortest possible) MFAT.

description: Auger analysis of high-aspect ratio contact holes of integrated microelectronic devices is a challenging analytical task. Due to geometrical shadowing the primary electron beam and the energy analyser have not the required direct line of sight to the analysis area simultaneously. To solve this problem sample preparation is needed to flatten the 3-dimensional geometry. Here the new approach of in-situ low-angle cross sectioning is applied. By this method material gets removed inside the Auger instrument while the sample is sputtered by Ar+ ions at nearly grazing incidence utilizing the edge of a mask, which partly covers the sample. A very shallow bevel with respect to the sample surface is produced. Thus along the bevel contact holes with suitable aspect ratios are available for the Auger analysis.

description: Solvent-free hydrodistillation adsorption apparatus (HDA) and normal clevenger hydrodistillation (NC) were applied to obtain Juniperus communis, Valeriana jatamansi and Hedychium spicatum essential oils (EOs). The yields, chemical compositions and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of the EOs were investigated. Obtained EOs were analyzed using gas chromatography (GC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instruments. Recovery improvement was observed in HDA method (30.4%, 27.3% and 29.0% more recovery of EOs than NC method for V. jatamansi, H. spicatum and J. communis, respectively). Present results demonstrated NCV (V. jatamansi EO (essential oil) by NC method) had highest α-glucosidase inhibitory activity with half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of 8.20 μg/mL. As a result, HDA method is considered to be the promising theme for producing EOs with high production recovery. Furthermore, current findings demonstrated that the selected EOs may be a good natural antidiabetic.

Distorted plane waves in chaotic scattering
Creators: name: Ingremeau, Maxime
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Distorted plane waves, sometimes called Eisenstein functions, are a family of eigenfunctions of a Schrödinger operator that are not square integrable. More precisely, they can be written as the sum of a plane wave and an outgoing wave. We shall study distorted plane waves in the semiclassical limit, in a general setting which includes manifolds that are Euclidean near infinity, under the hypothesis that the classical dynamics is hyperbolic close to the trapped set, and that some topological pressure is negative.

description: We introduce a general and accurate method for determining lattice phase shifts and mixing angles, which is applicable to arbitrary, non-cubic lattices. Our method combines angular momentum projection, spherical wall boundaries and an adjustable auxiliary potential. This allows us to construct radial lattice wave functions and to determine phase shifts at arbitrary energies. For coupled partial waves, we use a complex-valued auxiliary potential that breaks time-reversal invariance. We benchmark our method using a system of two spin-1/2 particles interacting through a finite-range potential with a strong tensor component. We are able to extract phase shifts and mixing angles for all angular momenta and energies, with precision greater than that of extant methods. We discuss a wide range of applications from nuclear lattice simulations to optical lattice experiments.

description: Soft corals distributed across the Red Sea coasts are a rich source of diverse and bioactive natural products. Chemical probing of the Red Sea soft coral Litophyton arboreum led to isolation and structural characterization of an undescribed sesquiterpenoid, litoarbolide A (1), along with 14 previously reported metabolites (2-15). The chemical structures of the isolates were assigned based on NMR as well as high resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS) data. Litoarbolide A is supposed to be the biosynthetic precursor to other sesquiterpenoids, which formed via further post-translational modifications. Furthermore, these metabolites were evaluated for anti-malarial activity, where only the acyclic sesquiterpenoid of a sec-germacrane nucleus (7) showed an activity against chloroquine-sensitive (D6) and chloroquine-resistant (W2) strains of Plasmodium falciparum with IC50 at 3.7 and 2.2 mg/mL, respectively. Moreover, the isolated metabolites were all non-toxic to the Vero cell line. These findings support the consideration of L. arboreum in further natural anti-malarial studies.
Spinor description of $D=5$ massless low-spin gauge fields
Creators: name: Uvarov, D. V.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Spinor description for the curvatures of $D=5$ Yang-Mills, Rarita-Schwinger and gravitational fields is elaborated. Restrictions imposed on the curvature spinors by the dynamical equations and Bianchi identities are analyzed. In the absence of sources symmetric curvature spinors with $2s$ indices obey first-order equations that in the linearized limit reduce to Dirac-type equations for massless free fields. These equations allow for a higher-spin generalization similarly to $4d$ case. Their solution in the form of the integral over Lorentz-harmonic variables parametrizing coset manifold $SO(1,4)/(SO(1,1)\times ISO(3))$ isomorphic to the three-sphere is considered. Superparticle model that contains such Lorentz harmonics as dynamical variables, as well as harmonics parametrizing the two-sphere $SU(2)/U(1)$ is proposed. The states in its spectrum are given by the functions on $S^3$ that upon integrating over the Lorentz harmonics reproduce on-shell symmetric curvature spinors for various massless supermultiplets of $D=5$ space-time supersymmetry.

description: Estrogens may influence gastric cancer risk but published studies are inconclusive. We therefore performed a meta-analysis addressing the associations of gastric cancer in women with menstrual and reproductive factors, and with use of estrogen- and antiestrogen-related therapies. Searches of PubMed up to June, 2011 and review of citations yielded a total of 28 independent studies including at least one exposure of interest. Random effects pooled estimates of relative risk (RR) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for eight exposures reported in at least five studies, including: age at menarche, age at menopause, years of fertility, parity, age at first birth, oral contraceptive use, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and tamoxifen treatment. Longer years of fertility (RR= 0.74; 95% CI= 0.63 to 0.86) and HRT (RR= 0.77, 95% CI= 0.64 to 0.92) were each associated with decreased gastric cancer risk. Conversely, tamoxifen treatment was associated with increased risk (RR= 1.82, 95% CI= 1.39 to 2.38). The other five exposures were not significantly associated. Our analysis supports the hypothesis that longer exposure to estrogen effects of either ovarian or exogenous origin may decrease risk of gastric cancer. Additional studies are warranted to extend this finding and to identify the underlying mechanisms.

description: Advantages offered by canine population substructure, combined with clinical presentations similar to human disorders, makes the dog an attractive system for studies of cancer genetics. Cancers that have been difficult to study in human families or populations are of particular interest. Histiocytic sarcoma is a rare and poorly understood neoplasm in humans that occurs in 15–25% of Bernese Mountain Dogs (BMD).
