description: We say that a category $\mathscr{D}$ is dimension zero over a field $F$ provided that every finitely generated representation of $\mathscr{D}$ over $F$ is finite length. We show that $\textrm{Rel}(R)$, a category that arises naturally from a finite idempotent semiring $R$, is dimension zero over any infinite field. One special case of this result is that $\textrm{Rel}$, the category of finite sets with relations, is dimension zero over any infinite field.

description: Using finite-temperature determinantal quantum Monte Carlo calculations, we re-examine the pairing susceptibilities in the Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice, focusing on doping levels onto and away from the van Hove singularity (VHS) filling. For this purpose, electronic densities of $0.75$ (at the hole-doping VHS) and $0.4$ (well below the VHS) are considered in detail, where due to a severe sign problem at strong coupling strengths, we focus on the weak interaction region of the Hubbard model Hamiltonian. From analyzing the temperature dependence of pairing susceptibilities in various symmetry channels, we find the singlet $d$+$id$-wave to be the dominant pairing channel both at and away from the VHS filling. We furthermore investigate the electronic susceptibility to a specific chiral spin density wave (SDW) order, which we find to be similarly relevant at the VHS, while it extenuates upon doping away from the VHS filling.

Eight hub genes (C3, CCL2, CLU, CXCL2, DHFR, EZH2, SERPING1 and SOCS3) were identified by scRNA-seq, WGCNA and GSVA. These genes may be potential immune and inflammation-related biomarkers for disease diagnosis and therapeutic targets.
Asymptotic study of the change-point MLE under contiguous change and its applications
Creators: name: Tan, Li
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2010
Subjects: Estimation theory

description: This thesis studied the change point problem under the contiguous setup. Specifically when the amount of change is a function of the sample size and goes to zero in a smooth fashion as the sample size goes to infinity, it yields a contiguous change-point model. Two scenarios are considered: first the problem of estimating an unknown change-point in the mean vector and/or covariance matrix of a sequence of independent multivariate Gaussian random variables is considered; secondly, the research have been extended to the change-point in the parameters of a sequence of independent time-series d-dimensional-valued random variables from a general parametric family of distributions. Adapting the estimation methodology that Hinkley pursued for the case of abrupt changes, we develop theory for deriving the asymptotic distribution of the maximum likelihood estimator of the change-point for both scenarios. We also show that the rate of convergence of the change-point mle from finite samples to infinite samples is of geometric order. Extensive simulations have been performed to illustrate the closeness of the asymptotic distribution with the empirical distribution, and to evaluate its robustness to departures from normality for reasonable sample sizes as well as parameter changes. Finally, we apply the methodology to estimate the change-point in the daily log-returns data of some stock prices from NYSE. We also applied the approach to the central England temperature data to evaluate the trend of global warming.

This enables us to reappraise the long-standing question of the $ΔI=1/2$ rule, which involves power-divergent subtractions that cannot be evaluated in perturbation theory. We also study the mixing with dimension-six operators and discuss its implications to the chiral behaviour of the $B_K$ parameter.

description: Weyl semimetals (WSMs), a new type of topological condensed matter, are currently attracting great interest due to their unusual electronic states and intriguing transport properties such as chiral anomaly induced negative magnetoresistance, a semi--quantized anomalous Hall effect and the debated chiral magnetic effect. These systems are close cousins of topological insulators (TIs) which are known for their disorder tolerant surface states. Similarly, WSMs exhibit unique topologically protected Fermi arcs surface states. Here we analyze electron--phonon scattering, a primary source of resistivity in metals at finite temperatures, as a function of the shape of the Fermi arc where we find that the impact on surface transport is significantly dependent on the arc curvature and disappears in the limit of a straight arc. Next, we discuss the effect of strong surface disorder on the resistivity by numerically simulating a tight binding model with the presence of quenched surface vacancies using the Coherent Potential Approximation (CPA) and Kubo--Greenwood formalism. We find that the limit of a straight arc geometry is remarkably disorder tolerant, producing surface conductivity that is a factor of 50 larger of a comparable set up with surface states of TI. Finally, a simulation of the effects of surface vacancies on TaAs is presented, illustrating the disorder tolerance of the topological surface states in a recently discovered WSM material.

Zeros of polynomials orthogonal on two arcs of the unit circle

description: In this paper we study polynomials $(P_n)$ which are hermitian orthogonal on two arcs of the unit circle with respect to weight functions which have square root singularities at the end points of the arcs, an arbitrary nonvanishing trigonometric polynomial $\mathcal{A}$ in the denominator and possible point measures at the zeros of $\mathcal{A}$. First we give an explicit representation of the orthogonal polynomials $P_n$ in terms of elliptic functions. With the help of this representation for sufficiently large $n$ the number of zeros of $P_n$ which are in an $ε$-neighbourhood of each of the arcs are determined. Finally it is shown that the accumulation points of the zeros of $(P_n)$ which are not attracted to the support lie on a Jordan arc running within the unit disk from one of the arcs to the other one. The accumulation points lie dense on the Jordan arc if the harmonic measures of the arcs are irrational. If the harmonic measures are rational then there is only a finite set of accumulation points on the Jordan arc.
Molecular pathogenicity of disease-associated mutations in cone CNG channel subunits
Creators: name: Liu, Chunming
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2008
Subjects: Photoreceptors -- Diseases

description: Located at the outer segment membrane of photoreceptor cells, cyclic nucleotide-gated CNG channels are a critical step in the phototransduction cascade by which light stimulation is converted into electrical responses that can be processed by the central nervous system. The abundance and proper functioning of CNG channels are critical for photoreceptor survival. Multiple mutations in genes encoding CNG channel subunits have been identified in patients with inherited retinal degenerative diseases, a genetically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by loss of rod, cone, or both photoreceptor cells. The resulting blindness is one of the major causes of disability. However, the pathogenic mechanisms arising from these mutations have remained largely undetermined. To address this question, we have focused on cone specific CNG channels and functionally characterized three mutations associated with severe progressive cone dystrophy. Complex effects, including altered channel-gating properties, impaired channel subunit processing and maturation, and disrupted plasma membrane localization, were observed with these mutations. These results provide evidence for the pathogenecity of the mutations in humans, and suggest that changes in channel activity and/or localization may ultimately lead to the reported clinical features. To further identify the possible cellular and molecular pathways by which CNG channel mutations initiate photoreceptor degeneration, two achromatopsia-associated, gain-of-function mutations in CNGB3 were studied using heterologous expression in photoreceptor derived 661W cell. Mutant channels exhibited increased apparent affinity for CPT-cGMP compared to wild-type channels. Increased cytotoxicity induced by a low concentration of CPT-cGMP was observed in mutant channel-expressing 661W cells. The elevation in cytotoxicity was found to be dependent on the presence of extracellular calcium. The increased susceptibility to cell death could be rescued by applying CNG channel blockers L-cis-diltiazem or tetracaine. These results suggest that cytotoxicity in this model depends on calcium entry through hyperactive CNG channels, supporting a Ca2+-overload hypothesis. Our results are the first to show a direct connection between disease-associated mutations in cone CNG channel subunits, altered CNG channel-activation properties, and photoreceptor cytotoxicity.

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: The ongoing observations of merging black holes by the instruments of the fledging gravitational wave astronomy has opened the way for testing the general relativistic Kerr black hole metric and, at the same time, for probing the existence of more speculative horizonless ultracompact objects. In this paper we quantify the difference that these two classes of objects may exhibit in the post-merger ringdown signal. By considering rotating systems in general relativity and assuming an eikonal limit and a third-order Hartle-Thorne slow rotation approximation, we provide the first calculation of the early ringdown frequency and damping time as a function of the body's multipolar structure. Using the example of a gravastar, we show that the main ringdown signal may differ as much as a few percent with respect to that of a Kerr black hole, a deviation that could be probed by near future Advanced LIGO/Virgo searches.

description: An exploratory field survey was conducted among a sample of rural Rwandan coffee farmers who have been experiencing new commercial opportunities and associations since the deregulation of Rwanda's coffee industry in the aftermath of the 1994 genocide. Participants were interviewed in confidential settings on their attitudes towards reconciliation and on other social and economic factors that may have changed since the economic liberalisation of coffee in Rwanda's recent history.; Results from correlational analyses suggest that membership in a coffee cooperative, being associated with a particular coffee washing station comparatively longer, and economic as well as general life satisfaction are significant correlates of positive attitudes towards reconciliation among participants, beyond a clear indication that frequent, deep, and pleasant contact with members from the other ethnic group in Rwanda is strongly linked to an attitude of reconciliation.; These observations were discernible independent of ethnicity of particular participants, or of the specific ethnic mix of community members in a given survey location, indicating that forgiveness and reconciliation are equally salient for all Rwandans, and that those individuals who benefit from the coffee sector deregulation economically may also experience positive social change as an ancillary result.; Although the study's sample represents a minority of coffee farmers in Rwanda, i.e. those benefiting from the results of privatisation in Rwanda's coffee sector, and the survey design prohibits generalisations beyond the group examined, the observed correlations match current theories of reconciliation, and extend the small body of field studies in reconciliation research, thus providing a quantitative insight into the potential mediating effect of commercially induced intergroup contact on positive intergroup relations in post-conflict environments with lingering ethnic discord.; Limitations of survey research in post-conflict settings are discussed in conjunction with recommendations for follow-up inquiries on the social factors that may contribute to a reduction in inter-ethnic hostility, even if on the face of it, they may seem utterly unrelated to psychology.

Tests with $1 \leq m \leq 32$ demonstrate that the computational cost (no. of matrix multiplies) does not increase substantially with $m$. This implies that, as compared to the case of a $m=1$, the additional eigenvalues are obtained for free.

description: The dynamics of compact binary systems at the fourth post-Newtonian (4PN) approximation of general relativity has been recently completed in a self-consistent way. In this paper, we compute the ten Poincaré constants of the motion and present the equations of motion in the frame of the center of mass (CM), together with the corresponding CM Lagrangian, conserved energy and conserved angular momentum. Next, we investigate the reduction of the CM dynamics to the case of quasi-circular orbits. The non local (in time) tail effect at the 4PN order is consistently included, as well as the relevant radiation-reaction dissipative contributions to the energy and angular momentum.

description: The EGRET results for gamma-ray intensities in and near the Galactic Plane have been analysed in some detail. Attention has been concentrated on energies above 1 GeV and the individual intensities in a $4^\circ$ longitude bin have been determined and compared with the large scale mean found from a nine-degree polynomial fit. Comparison has been made of the observed standard deviation for the ratio of these intensities with that expected from variants of our model. The basic model adopts cosmic ray origin from supernova remnants, the particles then diffusing through the Galaxy with our usual 'anomalous diffusion'. The variants involve the clustering of SN, a frequency distribution for supernova explosion energies, and 'normal', rather than 'anomalous' diffusion. It is found that for supernovae of unique energy, and our usual anomalous diffusion, clustering is necessary, particularly in the Inner Galaxy. An alternative, and preferred, situation is to adopt the model with a frequency distribution of supernova energies. The results for the Outer Galaxy are such that no clustering is required.

Subjects: Organizational change -- Case studies

description: This research looks specifically at organizational change within the United States Air Force (USAF) and attempts to explain, assess, and predict future organizational change. Using the theoretically based independent variables of external events, internal culture, and organizational leadership, case studies are developed using process-tracing to analyze historical USAF organizational change. The first case study examines the period from 1907 to 1947 and effectively shows that the outlined theory informs and anticipates the major organizational change that occurred in 1947. The second case study begins in 1947 and further helps to show the effectiveness of the outlined theory to explain and anticipate the major organizational change that occurred in 1992. Armed with the validated theoretical guidance, the third case study examines the period from 1992 to 2030 and offers analysis and prediction for how, why, and when the USAF will experience another major organizational change. Using a mixed method approach that draws on case study analysis, quantitative measurement, survey data, and expert interviews, the three periods of analysis reveal that the USAF has evolved in each period from one dominant operational perspective to another with each operational perspective determining, in large part, the organizational structure of the service. In 1907 a ground-operations perspective dominated the organizational structure of airpower; however, by 1947 an organizational shift occurred that elevated a bomber-operations perspective into dominance. The bomber-operations perspective was eventually and formally replaced in 1992 by a fighter-operations perspective that influenced and dominated the organizational structure. Using the same theoretical guidance that explained these previous changes, it was determined that by the year 2030 the fighter-operations perspective will be replaced by a new and dominant synergistic-operations perspective. This research and predictive assessment provides important organizational explanation and considerations that can help USAF leadership better prepare for an uncertain future.

description: High-quality K-band spectra of strongly reddened point sources, deeply embedded in (ultra-) compact HII regions, have revealed a population of 20 young massive stars showing no photospheric absorption lines, but sometimes strong Br-gamma emission. The Br-gamma equivalent widths occupy a wide range (from about 1 to over 100 A); the line widths of 100-200 km/s indicate a circumstellar rather than a nebular origin. The K-band spectra exhibit one or more features commonly associated with massive young stellar objects (YSOs) surrounded by circumstellar material: a very red colour (J-K) > 2, CO bandhead emission, hydrogen emission lines (sometimes doubly peaked), and FeII and/or MgII emission lines. The massive YSO distribution in the CMD suggests that the majority of the objects are of similar spectral type as the Herbig Be stars, but some of them are young O stars. The CO emission must come from a relatively dense (~10^{10} cm^{-3}) and hot (T~ 2000-5000 K) region, sufficiently shielded from the intense UV radiation field of the young massive star. The hydrogen emission is produced in an ionised medium exposed to UV radiation. The best geometrical solution is a dense and neutral circumstellar disk causing the CO bandhead emission, and an ionised upper layer where the hydrogen lines are produced. We present arguments that the circumstellar disk is more likely a remnant of the accretion process than the result of rapid rotation and mass loss such as in Be/B[e] stars.

Subjects: Working class -- Education -- History

description: The premise behind this book is that Working Class/Poverty Class students of today lack a voice in the social and political structures that govern our world. I explore the English methods and subject matter used to instruct Working Class/Poverty Class people of past eras who also struggled to find their voice amidst such foes as class discrimination and racial injustice. By exploring this work and delving into pedagogies of the past, I will illustrate some key methods that can be used to empower students today. The first chapter of the dissertation examines definitions of class, class problems, and Working Class/Poverty Class manifestations in the classroom today. The second chapter explores the history of Brookwood Labor College, an educational institution which was founded in 1921 and had a goal to educate labor union organizers. Chapter 3 provides an analysis of the dominant pedagogical theories and techniques at work in the Brookwood Labor College. In Chapter 4, I examine the historical events that led to the foundation and success of the Citizenship Schools. Also explored is the role that the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee played in furthering the schools. The next chapter examines the pedagogy at work in the Citizenship Schools. In the final chapter, I use the knowledge acquired by analyzing the Citizenship School and Brookwood Labor College courses to construct a hypothetical English course that would meet the needs of classrooms where Working Class/Poverty Class students make up the majority of the population. The conclusion argues for a stronger and more in-depth exploration of the potentials of community learning for helping Working Class/Poverty Class students develop into active citizens.

description: Limits on the size of quenched chiral logs in the pion mass for Wilson fermions are investigated. The smallness of chiral logs is shown to be a result of the suppression of the hairpin diagram for small $p^2$, such that the value of the hairpin on the pion mass shell is much smaller than the physical $m_{η'}^2$. A direct calculation of the topological susceptibility from the same data gives $m_{η'}\approx 1$ GeV.

description: This paper presents a measurement of the triple-differential cross section for the Drell--Yan process $Z/γ^*\rightarrow \ell^+\ell^-$ where $\ell$ is an electron or a muon. The measurement is performed for invariant masses of the lepton pairs, $m_{\ell\ell}$, between $46$ and $200$ GeV using a sample of $20.2$ fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions data at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2012. The data are presented in bins of invariant mass, absolute dilepton rapidity, $|y_{\ell\ell}|$, and the angular variable $\cosθ^{*}$ between the outgoing lepton and the incoming quark in the Collins--Soper frame. The measurements are performed in the range $|y_{\ell\ell}|<2.4$ in the muon channel, and extended to $|y_{\ell\ell}|<3.6$ in the electron channel. The cross sections are used to determine the $Z$ boson forward-backward asymmetry as a function of $|y_{\ell\ell}|$ and $m_{\ell\ell}$. The measurements achieve high-precision, below the percent level in the pole region, excluding the uncertainty in the integrated luminosity, and are in agreement with predictions. These precision data are sensitive to the parton distribution functions and the effective weak mixing angle.

description: Performance differences between men and women on measures of visual-spatial skills are well-documented and have resulted in an extensive literature on types of visual-spatial skills, variations in the observed effect sizes, and methods to moderate the effects. Of particular note, a large and consistent sex differences effect is observed for one particular visual-spatial test, the Vandenberg and Kuse (1978) Mental Rotations Test, where men obtain higher scores than women. For decades the particular source of this effect has been examined with an argument that spans the history of psychological research: Is it nature or nurture? To evaluate this effect from a more integrative perspective, this study manipulated the environmental demands and attempted to control for variations in sex-related biological state (menstrual phase). Results indicate that of six visual-spatial measures spanning three types of tasks, four demonstrated expected sex differences, and one of these tasks (MRT) was negatively affected specifically by inducing stereotype threat in male participants. Unexpectedly, women were not affected by the negative stereotype threat (i.e., explicit instruction of the stereotype), but may have been affected by social experience (female-examiner for female-participant) instead.

description: Profound vitamin B12 deficiency is a known cause of disease, but the role of low or intermediate levels of B12 in the development of neuropathy and other neuropsychiatric symptoms as well as the relationship of eating meat and B12 levels is unclear. Here we use food-related internet search patterns from a sample of 8.5 million US-based people as a proxy to B12 intake and correlate these searches with internet searches related to possible effects of B12 deficiency. Food-related search patterns are highly correlated with known consumption and food-related searches (Spearman 0.69). Awareness of B12 deficiency was associated with a higher consumption of B12-rich foods and with queries for B12 supplements. Searches for terms related to neurological disorders were correlated with searches for B12-poor foods, in contrast with control terms. Popular medicines, those having fewer indications, and those which are predominantly used to treat pain are more strongly correlated with the ability to predict neuropathic pain queries using the B12 contents of food. Our findings provide evidence for the utility of using Internet search patterns to investigate health questions in large populations and suggest that low B12 intake may be associated with a broader spectrum of neurological disorders than currently appreciated.

description: We consider the inverse problem of retrieving aerosol extinction coefficients from Raman lidar measurements. In this problem the unknown and the data are related through the exponential of a linear operator, the unknown is non-negative and the data follow the Poisson distribution. Standard methods work on the log-transformed data and solve the resulting linear inverse problem, but neglect to take into account the noise statistics. In this study we show that proper modelling of the noise distribution can improve substantially the quality of the reconstructed extinction profiles. To achieve this goal, we consider the non-linear inverse problem with non-negativity constraint, and propose two iterative algorithms derived using the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions. We validate the algorithms with synthetic and experimental data. As expected, the proposed algorithms outperform standard methods in terms of sensitivity to noise and reliability of the estimated profile.

description: The evolution of a two-level system subjected to stimulated transitions which is undergoing a sequence of measurements of the level occupation probability is evaluated. Its time correlation function is compared to the one obtained through the pure Schroedinger evolution. Systems of this kind have been recently proposed for testing the quantum mechanical predictions against those of macrorealistic theories, by means of temporal Bell inequalities. The classical requirement of noninvasivity, needed to define correlation functions in the realistic case, finds a quantum counterpart in the quantum nondemolition condition. The consequences on the observability of quantum mechanically predicted violations to temporal Bell inequalities are drawn and compared to the already dealt case of the rf-SQUID dynamics.

title: Young adults' relationships with grandparents
title: parents' intergenerational ties and grandchildren's adult roles
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Monserud, Maria Aleksandrovna
Publisher: name: Washington State University

Subjects: Grandparent and child

description: Survey of Families and Households (NSFH) to examine whether changes in parents intergenerational ties are associated with changes in the grandparent-grandchild relationship. The results indicate that improvements in parents relationships with their offspring, their own parents, and their parents-in-law are predictive of positive changes in the grandparent-grandchild bond. Additionally, the findings demonstrate that mother s as well as father s intergenerational ties in the family are more influential for granddaughters than grandsons relationships with grandparents. Drawing on data from Wave 3 of the NSFH, the second chapter investigates whether grandchildren s adult roles (i.e., residential independence, school enrollment, full-time employment, marriage and parenthood) are related to the grandparent-grandchild bond. The analysis reveals that grandchildren s adult roles can be negatively as well as positively associated with the grandparent-grandchild bond. Also, the findings suggest that it is necessary to take into account lineage and the grandparents gender in order to better understand differences in these associations. However, the idea that the grandchild s gender can moderate these associations received limited support. The third chapter examines the associations between changes in grandchildren s adult roles and changes in the grandparent-grandchild relationship. Using data from Waves 2 and 3 of the NSFH, this chapter centers on role acquisitions/occupations and exits related to young adults residential independence, school enrollment, full-time employment, marital status, and parenthood status. Findings suggest that young adults who do not reside with their parents or those who work full-time can experience the deterioration of their ties to grandparents. In contrast, with a few small exceptions, young adults who are divorced, separated, or have children can experience improvements in their involvement with grandparent. Overall, the results reveal that the associations between changes in grandchildren s adult roles and the grandparent-grandchild relationship are complex, and vary by the role in question, a specific dimension of intergenerational solidarity between grandchildren and grandparents, by lineage, and the grandchild s as well as grandparent s gender.

description: Payment channel networks use off-chain transactions to provide virtually arbitrary transaction rates. In this paper, we provide a new perspective on payment channels and consider them as a flow network. We propose an extended push-relabel algorithm to find payment flows in a payment channel network. Our algorithm enables a distributed and concurrent execution without violating capacity constraints. To this end, we introduce the concept of capacity locking. We prove that flows are valid and present first results.

description: We describe an explicitly discrete model of the process of DNA branch migration. The model matches the existing data well, but we find that branch migration along long strands of DNA ($N \simge 40$~bp) is also well modeled by continuum diffusion. The discrete model is still useful for guiding future experiments.
