description: In inclusion detection in electrical impedance tomography, the support of perturbations (inclusion) from a known background conductivity is typically reconstructed from idealized continuum data modelled by a Neumann-to-Dirichlet map. Only few reconstruction methods apply when detecting indefinite inclusions, where the conductivity distribution has both more and less conductive parts relative to the background conductivity; one such method is the monotonicity method of Harrach, Seo, and Ullrich. We formulate the method for irregular indefinite inclusions, meaning that we make no regularity assumptions on the conductivity perturbations nor on the inclusion boundaries. We show, provided that the perturbations are bounded away from zero, that the outer support of the positive and negative parts of the inclusions can be reconstructed independently. Moreover, we formulate a regularization scheme that applies to a class of approximative measurement models, including the Complete Electrode Model, hence making the method robust against modelling error and noise. In particular, we demonstrate that for a convergent family of approximative models there exists a sequence of regularization parameters such that the outer shape of the inclusions is asymptotically exactly characterized. Finally, a peeling-type reconstruction algorithm is presented and, for the first time in literature, numerical examples of monotonicity reconstructions for indefinite inclusions are presented.

description: In order to understand the origin of observed molecular cloud properties, it is critical to understand how clouds interact with their environments during their formation, growth, and collapse. It has been suggested that accretion-driven turbulence can maintain clouds in a highly turbulent state, preventing runaway collapse, and explaining the observed non-thermal velocity dispersions. We present 3D, AMR, MHD simulations of a kiloparsec-scale, stratified, supernova-driven, self-gravitating, interstellar medium, including diffuse heating and radiative cooling. These simulations model the formation and evolution of a molecular cloud population in the turbulent interstellar medium. We use zoom-in techniques to focus on the dynamics of the mass accretion and its history for individual molecular clouds. We find that mass accretion onto molecular clouds proceeds as a combination of turbulent and near free-fall accretion of a gravitationally bound envelope. Nearby supernova explosions have a dual role, compressing the envelope, boosting accreted mass, but also disrupting parts of the envelope and eroding mass from the cloud's surface. It appears that the inflow rate of kinetic energy onto clouds from supernova explosions is insufficient to explain the net rate of charge of the cloud kinetic energy. In the absence of self-consistent star formation, conversion of gravitational potential into kinetic energy during contraction seems to be the main driver of non-thermal motions within clouds. We conclude that although clouds interact strongly with their environments, bound clouds are always in a state of gravitational contraction, close to runaway, and their properties are a natural result of this collapse.

description: Background People with T2D are at high risk of developing HF and even when asymptomatic often have subclinical cardiovascular structure and function abnormalities (stage-B HF). Approximately 50% of HF patients have HFpEF. Lifestyle modifications may be useful to manage HFpEF by treating the comorbidities closely linked with HFpEF development and progression, including obesity and T2D. Methods 1. Secondary analyses of the DIASTOLIC trial a. Case-control of micronutrient concentrations in T2D (N=119) b. Associations between change in micronutrient concentration and cardiovascular structure and function (N=54) c. Case-control of novel CPET variables in T2D (N=120) d. Baseline associations between CPET indices of exercise tolerance and abnormal cardiovascular structure and function (N=84) e. Effects of lifestyle interventions on novel CPET variables in T2D (N=72) 2. Development of exercise-CMR in healthy volunteers (N=6) 3. Systematic review and network meta-analyses of lifestyle interventions in HFpEF 4. Feasibility of a low-energy MRP in obese HFpEF (N=3) Results Compared to matched healthy controls, concentrations of vitamins B1 and B6 differ in T2D, and CPET indices of exercise tolerance are reduced. A 12-week low-energy MRP improves vitamins B1, B6, D, and C, and heart rate recovery. Impaired CPET indices of exercise tolerance are associated with abnormal cardiovascular structure and function in T2D. Change in micronutrient concentration and change in cardiovascular structure and function are not associated. Lifestyle interventions improve VO2peak and QoL in HFpEF. HIIT was the most effective intervention.Recruitment to a low-energy MRP in HFpEF was impacted by the covid-19 pandemic. Three participants were recruited and completed the study. Therefore, retention and completion may be feasible, but a larger study is required to confirm feasibility and efficacy. Conclusion Lifestyle interventions can improve patient-centred outcomes in T2D and HFpEF. The feasibility of applying a pragmatic low-energy MRP in HFpEF requires further investigation to confirm acceptability and efficacy.

description: The occurrence of discrimination is an important problem in the social and economical sciences. Much of the discrimination observed in empirical studies can be explained by the theory of in-group favoritism, which states that people tend to act more positively towards peers whose appearances are more similar to their own. Some studies, however, find hierarchical structures in inter-group relations, where members of low-status groups also favor the high-status group members. These observations cannot be understood in the light of in-group favoritism. Here we present an agent based model in which evolutionary dynamics can result in a hierarchical discrimination between two groups characterized by a meaningless, but observable binary label. We find that discriminating strategies end up dominating the system when the selection pressure is high, i.e. when agents have a much higher probability of imitating their neighbor with the highest payoff. These findings suggest that the puzzling persistence of hierarchical discrimination may result from the evolutionary dynamics of the social system itself, namely the social imitation dynamics. It also predicts that discrimination will occur more often in highly competitive societies.

description: The measured radiative rates of the 2s22p2 3P1,2 - 2s2p3 5S°2 intercombination transitions in neutral carbon reported in the literature are critically evaluated by comparing them with theoretical and semi-empirical results. The experimental and theoretical values are compared for the carbon isoelectronic sequence from neutral carbon to nine-times ionized phosphorous. We find strong support for the currently recommended theoretical data on C I and conclude that the published measurements for this transition in neutral carbon cannot be trusted. The reasons for the discrepancies are not clear, and new experiments are needed.

description: Virtual reality (VR) has created opportunities to innovatively re-imagine the way we examine the relations between pressure, competition anxiety and performance. This study aimed to determine the efficacy of VR as a means of measuring the effects of competition anxiety when pressure manipulations are applied while participants bat in a cricket batting VR simulator. The twenty-eight male participants who took part in two experiments were divided into a high (14, mean age: 22.94, SD: 5.4) and a low skill group (14; mean age: 23.55, SD: 9.9). The aim of the first experiment was to validate the VR simulator as a tool that could capture differences in batting performance between a high and low skilled group. The results showed that high skill participants not only scored significantly higher run rates than low skill participants, but they outperformed the low skill group in all performance measures including higher incidences of correct foot placements that reflect better anticipatory responses. Having established the VR batting simulator as being a reliable tool for capturing batting dynamics, experiment 2 aimed to explore the effects of a pressure manipulation on competition anxiety and batting performance. All measures of competition anxiety were significantly greater for both groups in the high-pressure condition compared to the two low-pressure conditions (p < 0.001). The magnitude of this effect was greater in the low skill group for cognitive (0.59) and somatic (0.794) anxiety. Despite anxiety levels significantly increasing in the high-pressure condition, no significant negative changes to batting performance were found for either group, with both groups actually demonstrating performance improvements. Overall, the findings show how a cricket batting virtual reality simulator can be used as a tool to measure the effects of pressure on competition anxiety and batting performance in tasks involving dynamic skill execution.

description: We study the Euclidean gravitational path integral computing the Renyi entropy and analyze its behavior under small variations. We argue that, in Einstein gravity, the extremality condition can be understood from the variational principle at the level of the action, without having to solve explicitly the equations of motion. This set-up is then generalized to arbitrary theories of gravity, where we show that the respective entanglement entropy functional needs to be extremized. We also extend this result to all orders in Newton's constant $G_N$, providing a derivation of quantum extremality. Understanding quantum extremality for mixtures of states provides a generalization of the dual of the boundary modular Hamiltonian which is given by the bulk modular Hamiltonian plus the area operator, evaluated on the so-called modular extremal surface. This gives a bulk prescription for computing the relative entropies to all orders in $G_N$. We also comment on how these ideas can be used to derive an integrated version of the equations of motion, linearized around arbitrary states.

description: The presence of ubiquitous magnetic fields in the universe is suggested from observations of radiation and cosmic ray from galaxies or the intergalactic medium (IGM). One possible origin of cosmic magnetic fields is the magnetogenesis in the primordial universe. Such magnetic fields are called primordial magnetic fields (PMFs), and are considered to affect the evolution of matter density fluctuations and the thermal history of the IGM gas. Hence the information of PMFs is expected to be imprinted on the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) through the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (tSZ) effect in the IGM. In this study, given an initial power spectrum of PMFs as $P(k)\propto B_{\rm 1Mpc}^2 k^{n_{B}}$, we calculate dynamical and thermal evolutions of the IGM under the influence of PMFs, and compute the resultant angular power spectrum of the Compton $y$-parameter on the sky. As a result, we find that two physical processes driven by PMFs dominantly determine the power spectrum of the Compton $y$-parameter; (i) the heating due to the ambipolar diffusion effectively works to increase the temperature and the ionization fraction, and (ii) the Lorentz force drastically enhances the density contrast just after the recombination epoch. These facts result in making the tSZ angular power spectrum induced by the PMFs more remarkable at $\ell >10^4$ than that by galaxy clusters even with $B_{\rm 1Mpc}=0.1$ nG and $n_{B}=-1.0$ because the contribution from galaxy clusters decreases with increasing $\ell$. The measurement of the tSZ angular power spectrum on high $\ell$ modes can provide the stringent constraint on PMFs.

Quantum Channel Capacities Per Unit Cost

description: Communication over a noisy channel is often conducted in a setting in which different input symbols to the channel incur a certain cost. For example, for bosonic quantum channels, the cost associated with an input state is the number of photons, which is proportional to the energy consumed. In such a setting, it is often useful to know the maximum amount of information that can be reliably transmitted per cost incurred. This is known as the capacity per unit cost. In this paper, we generalize the capacity per unit cost to various communication tasks involving a quantum channel such as classical communication, entanglement-assisted classical communication, private communication, and quantum communication. For each task, we define the corresponding capacity per unit cost and derive a formula for it analogous to that of the usual capacity. Furthermore, for the special and natural case in which there is a zero-cost state, we obtain expressions in terms of an optimized relative entropy involving the zero-cost state. For each communication task, we construct an explicit pulse-position-modulation coding scheme that achieves the capacity per unit cost. Finally, we compute capacities per unit cost for various bosonic Gaussian channels and introduce the notion of a blocklength constraint as a proposed solution to the long-standing issue of infinite capacities per unit cost. This motivates the idea of a blocklength-cost duality, on which we elaborate in depth.

Place, community and commemorative cultures in the (re)making of local First World War memorials

description: The changes inscribed by a century of public interaction with local First World War memorials alter their messages and embody different values over time. This tells a sometimes-uneasy story of both change and continuity, stasis and transmutation, preservation and modification that negotiates people, place, and changing commemorative cultures. This thesis reveals and analyses a detailed picture of this century of changing war memorials, using innovative research foci and interdisciplinary methods. With a focus on material change and what it reveals about custodianship and community, it chronologises and characterises the dynamic interface between people and memorials across the century. Freestanding monuments across two counties for which excellent data exists were selected for examination due to their popular use as the primary site for remembrance activity and the need to restrict the sample (estimated at over 100,000 across the UK) to a manageable number (130 for the chosen counties). Given the expanse of theoretical approaches, the thesis is necessarily selective in its overall approach, choosing a material culture emphasis over others to enhance originality, increase the pragmatic relevance of findings, and to fill a gap in current paradigms. It examines changing or competing claims to heritage, memory and recognition, through community agency and intervention in the built environment against a backdrop of social, cultural, political and military change. This provides new insights into the ‘long-view’ of commemoration in the local setting in England, with specific attention to temporal, spatial and social context and the resulting changing commemorative intent and aesthetics. This research constructs a detailed and reliable chronology of changes made to memorials c.1918-2021 by sampling two Midlands counties, revealing a range of influences from the individual to the international. It defines the developments of a new aesthetic of remembrance that embodies changing attitudes to commemoration within communities.

description: We test numerically the recently proposed linear relationship between the scale-invariant period $T_{\rm s.i.} = T |E|^{3/2}$, and the topology of an orbit, on several hundred planar Newtonian periodic three-body orbits. Here $T$ is the period of an orbit, $E$ is its energy, so that $T_{\rm s.i.}$ is the scale-invariant (s.i.) period, or, equivalently, the period at unit energy $|E| = 1$. All of these orbits have vanishing angular momentum and pass through a linear, equidistant configuration at least once. Such orbits are classified in ten algebraically well-defined sequences. Orbits in each sequence follow an approximate linear dependence of $T_{\rm s.i.}$, albeit with slightly different slopes and intercepts. The orbit with the shortest period in its sequence is called the "progenitor": six distinct orbits are the progenitors of these ten sequences. We have studied linear stability of these orbits, with the result that 21 orbits are linearly stable, which includes all of the progenitors. This is consistent with the Birkhoff-Lewis theorem, which implies existence of infinitely many periodic orbits for each stable progenitor, and in this way explains the existence and ensures infinite extension of each sequence.

description: The Compass Project (TCP) is a research study, of which Dr Neema Trivedi-Bateman is the creator and Principal Investigator.TCP has developed an innovative morality and emotion programme for use with adolescents in any organisations that work with young people. The study was formerly based at Anglia Ruskin University, is based at Loughborough University, and is inspired by previous work carried out at the Institute of Criminology at the University of Cambridge.The study has been specifically designed to test key research questions and explore testable implications of theoretical explanations of how we feel, think, and behave. One such example is Situational Action Theory (SAT). SAT is a detailed theory of action which specifies (i) key causes of crime and the situational processes that link them directly to action, as well as (ii) key causes of the causes of crime and the developmental and selective processes that link them indirectly to action. TCP uses both established and innovative methods to track participants’ personal and social development and their psychological, social and behavioural outcomes.A full description of the programme content and all programme materials, facilitator instructions, and a facilitator script can be found in a detailed fieldwork handbook and can be utilised with adherence to copyright guidelines. The Compass Project (TCP) Programme Handbook is available upon application to the Principal Investigator, Dr Neema Trivedi-Bateman, contacted via n.trivedi-bateman@lboro.ac.uk (ORCID identifier 1-7374-4893). Researchers interested in replicating TCP methods and research instruments are welcomed to get in touch. Applications for access to the TCP Programme Handbook must be submitted by bona fide researchers for a research purpose that is in line with the original aims of the study, must not be deemed to be used with inappropriate or underdeveloped research designs, and involve a process and impact evaluation.

description: The literature on regression kink designs develops identification results for average effects of continuous treatments (Card, Lee, Pei, and Weber, 2015), average effects of binary treatments (Dong, 2018), and quantile-wise effects of continuous treatments (Chiang and Sasaki, 2019), but there has been no identification result for quantile-wise effects of binary treatments to date. In this paper, we fill this void in the literature by providing an identification of quantile treatment effects in regression kink designs with binary treatment variables. For completeness, we also develop large sample theories for statistical inference and a practical guideline on estimation and inference.

description: Recently de Thanhoffer de Völcsey and Van den Bergh classified the Euler forms on a free abelian group of rank 4 having the properties of the Euler form of a smooth projective surface. There are two types of solutions: one corresponding to $\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1$ (and noncommutative quadrics), and an infinite family indexed by the natural numbers. For $m=0,1$ there are commutative and noncommutative surfaces having this Euler form, whilst for $m\geq 2$ there are no commutative surfaces. In this paper we construct sheaves of maximal orders on surfaces having these Euler forms, giving a geometric construction for their numerical blowups.

description: We compute the Chow-Witt rings of the classifying spaces for the symplectic and special linear groups. In the structural description we give, contributions from real and complex realization are clearly visible. In particular, the computation of cohomology with $\mathbf{I}^j$-coefficients is done closely along the lines of Brown's computation of integral cohomology for special orthogonal groups. The computations for the symplectic groups show that Chow-Witt groups are a symplectically oriented ring cohomology theory. Using our computations for special linear groups, we also discuss the question when an oriented vector bundle of odd rank splits off a trivial summand.

description: We give a description of the Hochschild cohomology for noncommutative planes (resp. quadrics) using the automorphism groups of the elliptic triples (resp. quadruples) that classify the Artin-Schelter regular $\mathbb{Z}$-algebras used to define noncommutative planes and quadrics. For elliptic triples the description of the automorphism groups is due to Bondal-Polishchuk, for elliptic quadruples it is new.

Good Bounds in Certain Systems of True Complexity One

description: Let $Φ= (ϕ_1,\dots,ϕ_6)$ be a system of $6$ linear forms in $3$ variables, i.e. $ϕ_i \colon \mathbb{Z}^3 \to \mathbb{Z}$ for each $i$. Suppose also that $Φ$ has Cauchy--Schwarz complexity $2$ and true complexity $1$, in the sense defined by Gowers and Wolf; in fact this is true generically in this setting. Finally let $G = \mathbb{F}_p^n$ for any $p$ prime and $n \ge 1$. Then we show that multilinear averages by $Φ$ are controlled by the $U^2$-norm, with a polynomial dependence; i.e. if $f_1,\dots,f_6 \colon G \to \mathbb{C}$ are functions with $\|f_i\|_{\infty} \le 1$ for each $i$, then for each $j$, $1 \le j \le 6$: \[ \left| \mathbb{E}_{x_1,x_2,x_3 \in G} f_1(φ_1(x_1,x_2,x_3)) \dots f_6(ϕ_6(x_1,x_2,x_3)) \right| \le \|f_j\|_{U^2}^{1/C} \] for some $C > 0$ depending on $Φ$. This recovers and strengthens a result of Gowers and Wolf in these cases. Moreover, the proof uses only multiple applications of the Cauchy--Schwarz inequality, avoiding appeals to the inverse theory of the Gowers norms. We also show that some dependence of $C$ on $Φ$ is necessary; that is, the constant $C$ can unavoidably become large as the coefficients of $Φ$ grow.

description: Underwater acoustic sensor networks (UASNs) are often used for environmental and industrial sensing in undersea/ocean space, therefore, these networks are also named underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs). Underwater sensor networks are different from other sensor networks due to the acoustic channel used in their physical layer, thus we should discuss about the specific features of these underwater networks such as acoustic channel modeling and protocol design for different layers of open system interconnection (OSI) model. Each node of these networks as a sensor needs to exchange data with other nodes; however, complexity of the acoustic channel makes some challenges in practice, especially when we are designing the network protocols. Therefore based on the mentioned cases, we are going to review general issues of the design of a UASN in this paper. In this regard, we firstly describe the network architecture for a typical 3D UASN, then we review the characteristics of the acoustic channel and the corresponding challenges of it and finally, we discuss about the different layers e.g. MAC protocols, routing protocols, and signal processing for the application layer of UASNs.

description: We consider a Krylov subspace approximation method for the symmetric differential Riccati equation $\dot{X} = AX + XA^T + Q - XSX$, $X(0)=X_0$. The method we consider is based on projecting the large scale equation onto a Krylov subspace spanned by the matrix $A$ and the low rank factors of $X_0$ and $Q$. We prove that the method is structure preserving in the sense that it preserves two important properties of the exact flow, namely the positivity of the exact flow, and also the property of monotonicity. We also provide a theoretical a priori error analysis which shows a superlinear convergence of the method. This behavior is illustrated in the numerical experiments. Moreover, we derive an efficient a posteriori error estimate as well as discuss multiple time stepping combined with a cut of the rank of the numerical solution.
