description: Chest CT provides a way to quantify pulmonary airway and vascular tree measurements. In patients with COPD, CT airway measurement differences in females are concomitant with worse quality-of-life and other outcomes. CT total airway count (TAC), airway lumen area (LA), and wall thickness (WT) also differ in females with long-COVID. Our objective was to evaluate CT airway and pulmonary vascular and quality-of-life measurements in females with COPD as compared to ex-smokers and patients with long-COVID. Chest CT was acquired 3-months post-COVID-19 infection in females with long-COVID for comparison with the same inspiratory CT in female ex-smokers and COPD patients. TAC, LA, WT, and pulmonary vascular measurements were quantified. Linear regression models were adjusted for confounders including age, height, body-mass-index, lung volume, pack-years and asthma diagnosis. Twenty-one females (53 ± 14 years) with long-COVID, 17 female ex-smokers (69 ± 9 years) and 13 female COPD (67 ± 6 years) patients were evaluated. In the absence of differences in quality-of-life scores, females with long-COVID reported significantly different LA (p = 0.006) compared to ex-smokers but not COPD (p = 0.7); WT% was also different compared to COPD (p = 0.009) but not ex-smokers (p = 0.5). In addition, there was significantly greater pulmonary small vessel volume (BV5) in long-COVID as compared to female ex-smokers (p = 0.045) and COPD (p = 0.003) patients and different large (BV10) vessel volume as compared to COPD (p = 0.03). In females with long-COVID and highly abnormal quality-of-life scores, there was CT evidence of airway remodelling, similar to ex-smokers and patients with COPD, but there was no evidence of pulmonary vascular remodelling.Clinical Trial Registration: www.clinicaltrials.gov NCT05014516 and NCT02279329

description: Given $β>0$ and $δ>0$, the function $t^{-β}$ may be approximated for $t$ in a compact interval $[δ,T]$ by a sum of terms of the form $we^{-at}$, with parameters $w>0$ and $a>0$. One such an approximation, studied by Beylkin and Monzón, is obtained by applying the trapezoidal rule to an integral representation of $t^{-β}$, after which Prony's method is applied to reduce the number of terms in the sum with essentially no loss of accuracy. We review this method, and then describe a similar approach based on an alternative integral representation. The main difference is that the new approach achieves much better results before the application of Prony's method; after applying Prony's method the performance of both is much the same.

Mobilitätshub

description: In dieser Arbeit wird Grundlagenwissen über Mobilitätshubs untersucht und eine Grundlage für die Auswahl der Kernkomponenten und Gestaltungselemente dieser Mobilitätshubs entwickelt. Dazu werden zunächst die bestehenden Definitionen in der Literatur untersucht und als Ergebnis vier Bausteine definiert, die es erlauben, einen Verkehrsknotenpunkt als Mobilitätshub zu definieren. Daraufhin wird eine Kategorisierung - wiederum aus der Literatur - gewählt, die sich auf die Funktionen von Mobilitätshubs konzentriert. Dann wird mit Hilfe von Literatur aus verschiedenen Organisationen ein Katalog von Elementen erstellt, die in Mobilitätshubs eingesetzt werden können. Es folgt eine Analyse der Mobilitätsangebote, die in Mobilitätshubs integriert werden können. Diese Analyse erfolgt neben der Recherche von Literatur und Betreibern durch die Erstellung von Customer Journeys, um die einzelnen Schritte der Nutzung dieser Mobilitätsangebote zu beleuchten. Anschließend werden die Mobilitätsstation Münchner Freiheit, der Karlsruher Hauptbahnhof und der Flughafen Frankfurt am Main als Beispiele auf Basis der gegebenen Informationen in vorherigen Kapiteln untersucht. Es folgt die Identifikation von relevanten Komponenten und Gestaltungselementen aus dem erstellten Katalog für die gegebenen Mobilitätsangebote. Zusätzlich werden drei Ideen für mögliche Mobilitätsangebote beschrieben, die in Mobilitätshubs zukünftig zum Einsatz kommen können. Abschließend wird eine Methodik zur Ableitung von Anforderungsprofilen potenzieller Mobilitätshub-Nutzer entworfen, mit der diese Anforderungen in die Auswahl der Kernkomponenten und Designelemente einfließen können. Diese Methodik verwendet Personas und schlägt einen Expertenworkshop zur Erstellung von Customer Journeys vor, um diese Anforderungen zu ermitteln.

Subjects: Customary Marriage

Marital Traditions

description: Customary marriage, a globally practiced tradition, notably entrenched in African societies, involves the formalization of marital unions through the traditional exchange of bride wealth. This age-old practice is deeply ingrained in societal norms and holds significant cultural importance (Murdock, 1967). In the Ghanaian context, Nukunya (2003) elucidates that customary marriage is perceived as the sacred union between a man and a woman, culminating in adherence to established customary rites. These rites encompass diverse rituals, including the payment of bride wealth (Renya, 1984), familial gatherings (Ozoemena, 2015), libation prayers, the exchange of gifts, and captivating cultural performances (Lodonu et al., 2015).

This study navigates the multifaceted landscape of customary marriage in Ghana, delving into the intricate tapestry of cultural practices that define and surround this significant social institution. From the essential exchange of bride wealth to the vibrant familial gatherings and the rich tapestry of cultural expressions, the research aims to unravel the nuances of these practices and their enduring significance in contemporary Ghanaian society.

The insights gleaned from this exploration are poised to contribute to the broader discourse on the cultural dynamics of marriage traditions, particularly within the Ghanaian context. By shedding light on the multifaceted components of customary marriage, the study provides a nuanced understanding of the cultural fabric that binds communities together through these sacred unions

description: We study bipartite post measurement entanglement entropy after selective measurements in quantum chains. We first study the quantity for the critical systems that can be described by conformal field theories. We find a connection between post measurement entanglement entropy and the Casimir energy of floating objects. Then we provide formulas for the post measurement entanglement entropy for open and finite temperature systems. We also comment on the Affleck-Ludwig boundary entropy in the context of the post measurement entanglement entropy. Finally, we also provide some formulas regarding modular hamiltonians and entanglement spectrum in the after measurement systems. After through discussion regarding CFT systems we also provide some predictions regarding massive field theories. We then discuss a generic method to calculate the post measurement entanglement entropy in the free fermion systems. Using the method we study the post measurement entanglement entropy in the XY spin chain. We check numerically the CFT and the massive field theory results in the transverse field Ising chain and the XX model. In particular, we study the post meaurement entanglement entropy in the infinite, periodic and open critical transverse field Ising chain and the critical XX model. The effect of the temperature and the gap is also discussed in these models.

description: We explore the recently discovered solution of the driven Tavis-Cummings model (DTCM). It describes interaction of arbitrary number of two-level systems with a bosonic mode that has linearly time-dependent frequency. We derive compact and tractable expressions for transition probabilities in terms of the well known special functions. In the new form, our formulas are suitable for fast numerical calculations and analytical approximations. As an application, we obtain the semiclassical limit of the exact solution and compare it to prior approximations. We also reveal connection between DTCM and $q$-deformed binomial statistics.

description: Following a recent proposal by Cooper and Zwanziger we investigate via $SU(2)$ lattice simulations the effect on the Coulomb gauge propagators and on the Gribov-Zwanziger confinement mechanism of selecting the Gribov copy with the smallest non-trivial eigenvalue of the Faddeev-Popov operator, i.e.~the one closest to the Gribov horizon. Although such choice of gauge drives the ghost propagator towards the prediction of continuum calculations, we find that it actually overshoots the goal. With increasing computer time, we observe that Gribov copies with arbitrarily small eigenvalues can be found. For such a method to work one would therefore need further restrictions on the gauge condition to isolate the physically relevant copies, since e.g.~the Coulomb potential $V_C$ defined through the Faddeev-Popov operator becomes otherwise physically meaningless. Interestingly, the Coulomb potential alternatively defined through temporal link correlators is only marginally affected by the smallness of the eigenvalues.

description: MLVA использовали для генотипирования панели 102 изолятов бруцелл из 8 областей Казахстана и соседних стран (Россия, Кыргызстан). Филогеография показала, что штаммы B. abortus и B. melitensis принадлежали к линиям «Abortus C» и «Восточное Средиземноморье», соответственно. Штаммы B. abortus из Казахстана и России оказались генетически родственными португальским, бразильским и американским изолятам, что свидетельствует о древнем распространении этих линий из Европы в Южную Америку и на восток в Турцию, Россию и Азию. Большинство казахстанских изолятов B. melitensis были связаны со штаммами, циркулирующими в Китае, вероятно, из-за долгосрочных торговых партнерских отношений между двумя странами. Наши результаты показывают, что молекулярное генотипирование следует применять систематически для поддержки планов борьбы с бруцеллезом в Казахстане.

description: Topological error correction codes are promising candidates to protect quantum computations from the deteriorating effects of noise. While some codes provide high noise thresholds suitable for robust quantum memories, others allow straightforward gate implementation needed for data processing. To exploit the particular advantages of different topological codes for fault-tolerant quantum computation, it is necessary to be able to switch between them. Here we propose a practical solution, subsystem lattice surgery, which requires only two-body nearest neighbor interactions in a fixed layout in addition to the indispensable error correction. This method can be used for the fault-tolerant transfer of quantum information between arbitrary topological subsystem codes in two dimensions and beyond. In particular, it can be employed to create a simple interface, a quantum bus, between noise resilient surface code memories and flexible color code processors.

description: Device-independent security is the gold standard for quantum cryptography: not only is security based entirely on the laws of quantum mechanics, but it holds irrespective of any a priori assumptions on the quantum devices used in a protocol, making it particularly applicable in a quantum-wary environment. While the existence of device-independent protocols for tasks such as randomness expansion and quantum key distribution has recently been established, the underlying proofs of security remain very challenging, yield rather poor key rates, and demand very high-quality quantum devices, thus making them all but impossible to implement in practice. We introduce a technique for the analysis of device-independent cryptographic protocols. We provide a flexible protocol and give a security proof that provides quantitative bounds that are asymptotically tight, even in the presence of general quantum adversaries. At a high level our approach amounts to establishing a reduction to the scenario in which the untrusted device operates in an identical and independent way in each round of the protocol. This is achieved by leveraging the sequential nature of the protocol, and makes use of a newly developed tool, the "entropy accumulation theorem" of Dupuis et al. As concrete applications we give simple and modular security proofs for device-independent quantum key distribution and randomness expansion protocols based on the CHSH inequality. For both tasks we establish essentially optimal asymptotic key rates and noise tolerance. In view of recent experimental progress, which has culminated in loophole-free Bell tests, it is likely that these protocols can be practically implemented in the near future.

title: Une famille au-delà de la famille. Jean-François Haas, «Tu écriras mon nom sur les eaux»
Creators: name: Kolly, Valentin
Publisher: name: Trier University
Year: 2022

description: In «Tu écriras mon nom sur les eaux», published in 2019, Jean-François Haas proposes a reflection on the family based on two distinct models put in opposition. The first, limited and exclusive, corresponds to the archetype of the Swiss family at the beginning of the 20th century. Haas describes it extensively in the first part of his novel before breaking it up and proposing a more open and human counter-model based on fiction and the potentialities offered by literature. Playing on in-tertextuality and the use of personal pronouns, among other things, Haas lays the foundations of an ideal but illusory family model, encompassing humanity in its entirety. By constantly weaving links between different moments of the 20th cen-tury and the present of narration and writing, Jean-François Haas is also building a strong discourse on Switzerland, its institutions and conservatism.

description: We develop a stochastic kinetic model of a pre-formed attachment of a mictrotuble (MT) with a cell cortex, in which the MT is tethered to the cell by a group of active motor proteins. Such an attachment is a particularly unique case of ligand-receptor bonds: The MT ligand changes its length (and thus binding sites) with time by polymerization-depolymerization kinetics, while multiple motor receptors tend to walk actively along the MT length. These processes, combined with force-mediated unbinding of the motors, result in an elaborate behavior of the MT connection to the cell cortex. We present results for the strength and lifetime of the system through the well-established force-clamp and force-ramp protocols when external tension is applied to the MT. The simulation results reveal that the MT-cell attachment behaves as a catch-bond or slip-bond depending on system parameters. We provide analytical approximations of the lifetime and discuss implications of our results on in-vitro experiments.

description: Meat-eating among non-human primates has been well documented but its prevalence among Afromontane baboons is understudied. In this study we report the predatory and meat-eating behaviours of a habituated group of gray-footed chacma baboons (Papio ursinus griseipes) living in an Afromontane environment in South Africa. We calculated a vertebrate-eating rate of 1 every 78.5 hours, increasing to 58.1 hours when unsuccessful predation attempts were included. A key food source was young antelopes, particularly bushbuck (Tragelaphus scriptus), which were consumed once every 115 observation hours. Similar to other baboon research sites, predations seemed mostly opportunistic, adult males regularly scrounged and monopolised prey, there was no evidence they used an active kill bite, and active sharing was absent. This is the first baboon study to report predation of rock python (Python sebae) eggs and likely scavenging of a leopard (Panthera pardus) kill (bushbuck) cached in a tree. We also describe several scramble kleptoparasitism events, tolerating active defence from antelope parents, and the baboons inhibiting public information about predations. In the latter case, baboons with meat often hid beyond the periphery of the group, reducing the likelihood of scrounging by competitors. This often led to prey carcasses being discarded without being fully exploited and potentially providing resources to scavengers. We also highlight the absence of encounters with numerous species, suggesting the baboons are a key component of several species’ landscapes of fear. Given these findings it seems likely that their ecological role in the Soutpansberg has been undervalued, and such conclusions may also hold for other baboon populations.

This Ph.D by Published Work consists of a collection of nine interlinked chapters on utopias and utopianism, each of which has already been published in an encyclopaedia, essay collection or journal in Europe, the United States or Australia in the period 2003-12. These chapters are preceded by an integrating and theorising introductory chapter which has not been published. Most chapters take the form of interdisciplinary survey essays identifying and analysing a number of primary texts in their sociopolitical and cultural history contexts. The chapters also identify and analyse a recurrent type of literary protagonist which I call the Little Man. A majority of texts originated in Britain and Northern Europe, or in the global South, between the middle of the eighteenth century and the beginning of the twenty-first century. Since there are few publications devoted to the subject of Southern Hemisphere utopianism, texts and endeavours which either locate utopia in or near Australia or emanate from writers with connections to Australia and the global South receive considerable attention in these chapters. The thesis discussed in the introductory chapter is in two parts. First it asserts, on the basis of the content of the texts surveyed and selected events within the history of international population movements and gatherings, that occupation of land is of high importance in utopianism. Occupation of land may constitute a utopic moment in its own right even if not followed by colonisation. The second part of the thesis asserts that for an established utopia to survive it must, like capitalism, expand. Expansion may take various forms; the ones highlighted are colonising, commerce, and cultural construction. The theorist most frequently drawn on is Fredric Jameson. Others whose work influences the argument are Slavoj Žižek, Gilles Deleuze, Louis Marin, and Michel de Certeau.

description: We study the quasi-local energy (QLE) and the surface geometry for Kerr spacetime in the Boyer-Lindquist coordinates without taking the slow rotation approximation. We also consider in the region $r\leq2m$, which is inside the ergosphere. For a certain region, $r>r_{k}(a)$, the Gaussian curvature of the surface with constant $t,r$ is positive, and for $r>\sqrt{3}a$ the critical value of the QLE is positive. We found that the three curves: the outer horizon $r=r_{+}(a)$, $r=r_{k}(a)$ and $r=\sqrt{3}a$ intersect at the point $a=\sqrt{3}m/2$, which is the limit for the horizon to be isometrically embedded into $\mathbb{R}^3$. The numerical result indicates that the Kerr QLE is monotonically decreasing to the ADM $m$ from the region inside the ergosphere to large $r$. Based on the second law of black hole dynamics, the QLE is increasing with respect to the irreducible mass $M_{\mathrm{ir}}$. From a results of Chen-Wang-Yau, we conclude that in a certain region, $r>r_{h}(a)$, the critical value of the Kerr QLE is a global minimum.

description: Traditionally rooted in the classic economic paradigm articulated by Adam Smith in 1776, the foundation of accessing the wealth of nations rested on the production of goods and subsequent market exchanges. In the prelude to the transformative European revolutions of the 18th century, the crux of wealth access was tethered to land ownership. The ensuing industrial society, born out of these revolutions, established industrialization as the indispensable prerequisite for societal development and modernization. However, as the contours of society evolved into the postmodern era, marked by the pervasive influence of information and communication technologies (ICTs), the dynamics of accessing the wealth of nations underwent a paradigm shift.

This study navigates the historical trajectories of wealth access, scrutinizing the shifts from land-based ownership to the industrial imperative and, subsequently, to the contemporary landscape shaped by ICTs. By elucidating the transformative impact of information and communication technologies on the accessibility of a nation's wealth, the research seeks to unravel the intricacies of this evolving paradigm. In the postmodern context, where digital connectivity defines the socio-economic landscape, the study delves into the nuanced interplay between technology, wealth, and societal advancement.

The insights garnered from this exploration are poised to contribute to the ongoing discourse on the evolving nature of wealth access in postmodern societies. As the contours of economic paradigms continue to be redefined, understanding the role of information and communication technologies in shaping contemporary wealth dynamics becomes paramount.

description: Ultrafast pump-probe measurements of plasmonic nanostructures probe the non-equilibrium behavior of excited carriers, which involves several competing effects obscured in typical empirical analyses. Here we present pump-probe measurements of plasmonic nanoparticles along with a complete theoretical description based on first-principles calculations of carrier dynamics and optical response, free of any fitting parameters. We account for detailed electronic-structure effects in the density of states, excited carrier distributions, electron-phonon coupling, and dielectric functions which allow us to avoid effective electron temperature approximations. Using this calculation method, we obtain excellent quantitative agreement with spectral and temporal features in transient-absorption measurements. In both our experiments and calculations, we identify the two major contributions of the initial response with distinct signatures: short-lived highly non-thermal excited carriers and longer-lived thermalizing carriers.

Kohnert tableaux and a lifting of quasi-Schur functions

description: We introduce the quasi-key basis of the polynomial ring. We prove this basis contains the quasi-Schur polynomials of of Haglund, Luoto, Mason and van Willigenburg and that stable limits of quasi-key polynomials are quasi-Schur functions, thus giving a lifting of the quasi-Schur basis of quasisymmetric polynomials to the full polynomial ring. We introduce the combinatorial model of Kohnert tableaux, and use this model to prove that key polynomials expand positively in quasi-key polynomials which in turn expand positively in the fundamental slide polynomials introduced earlier by the authors. We give simple combinatorial formulas for these expansions in terms of Kohnert tableaux, lifting the parallel expansions of a Schur function into quasi-Schur functions into fundamental quasisymmetric functions. We further utilize Kohnert tableaux to find the precise point at which the fundamental slide expansion of a key polynomial stabilizes.

description: We present an open-source retrieval code named HELIOS-Retrieval (hereafter HELIOS-R), designed to obtain chemical abundances and temperature-pressure profiles from inverting the measured spectra of exoplanetary atmospheres. In the current implementation, we use an exact solution of the radiative transfer equation, in the pure absorption limit, in our forward model, which allows us to analytically integrate over all of the outgoing rays (instead of performing Gaussian quadrature). Two chemistry models are considered: unconstrained chemistry (where the mixing ratios are treated as free parameters) and equilibrium chemistry (enforced via analytical formulae, where only the elemental abundances are free parameters). The nested sampling algorithm allows us to formally implement Occam's Razor based on a comparison of the Bayesian evidence between models. We perform a retrieval analysis on the measured spectra of the HR 8799b, c, d and e directly imaged exoplanets. Chemical equilibrium is disfavored by the Bayesian evidence for HR 8799b, c and d. We find supersolar C/O, C/H and O/H values for the outer HR 8799b and c exoplanets, while the inner HR 8799d and e exoplanets have substellar C/O, substellar C/H and superstellar O/H values. If these retrieved properties are representative of the bulk compositions of the exoplanets, then they are inconsistent with formation via gravitational instability (without late-time accretion) and consistent with a core accretion scenario in which late-time accretion of ices occurred differently for the inner and outer exoplanets. For HR 8799e, we find that spectroscopy in the K band is crucial for constraining C/O and C/H. HELIOS-R is publicly available as part of the Exoclimes Simulation Platform (ESP; www.exoclime.org).

description: This paper generalizes the Lasalle-Yoshizawa Theorem to switched nonsmooth systems. Filippov and Krasovskii regularizations of a switched system are shown to be contained within the convex hull of the Filippov and Krasovskii regularizations of the subsystems, respectively. A candidate common Lyapunov function that has a negative semidefinite derivative along the trajectories of the subsystems is shown to be sufficient to establish LaSalle-Yoshizawa results for the switched system. Results for regular and non-regular candidate Lyapunov functions are presented using an appropriate generalization of the time derivative. The developed generalization is motivated by adaptive control of switched systems where the derivative of the candidate Lyapunov function is typically negative semidefinite.
