description: Future wired and wireless communication systems will employ pure or combined Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) technique, such as in the European 3G mobile UMTS or Power Line Telecommunication system, but also several 4G proposal includes e.g. multi carrier (MC) CDMA. Former examinations carried out the drawbacks of single user detectors (SUD), which are widely employed in narrowband IS-95 CDMA systems, and forced to develop suitable multiuser detection schemes to increase the efficiency against interference. However, at this moment there are only suboptimal solutions available because of the rather high complexity of optimal detectors. One of the possible receiver technologies can be the quantum assisted computing devices which allows high level parallelism in computation. The first commercial devices are estimated for the next years, which meets the advert of 3G and 4G systems. In this paper we analyze the error probability and give tight bounds in a static and dynamically changing environment for a novel quantum computation based Quantum Multiuser detection (QMUD) algorithm, employing quantum counting algorithm, which provides optimal solution.

description: We study spin-transport in bilayer-graphene (BLG), spin-orbit coupled to a tungsten di sulfide (WS$_2$) substrate, and measure a record spin lifetime anisotropy ~40-70, i.e. ratio between the out-of-plane $τ_{\perp}$ and in-plane spin relaxation time $τ_{||}$. We control the injection and detection of in-plane and out-of-plane spins via the shape-anisotropy of the ferromagnetic electrodes. We estimate $τ_{\perp}$ ~ 1-2 ns via Hanle measurements at high perpendicular magnetic fields and via a new tool we develop: Oblique Spin Valve measurements. Using Hanle spin-precession experiments we find a low $τ_{||}$ ~ 30 ps in the electron-doped regime which only weakly depends on the carrier density in the BLG and conductivity of the underlying WS$_2$, indicating proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in the BLG. Such high $τ_{\perp}$ and spin lifetime anisotropy are clear signatures of strong spin-valley coupling for out-of-plane spins in BLG/WS$_2$ systems in the presence of SOC, and unlock the potential of BLG/transition metal dichalcogenide heterostructures for developing future spintronic applications.

description: A Sobolev type embedding for radially symmetric functions on the unit ball $B$ in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 3$, into the variable exponent Lebesgue space $L_{2^\star + |x|^α} (B)$, $2^\star = 2n/(n-2)$, $α>0$, is known due to J.M. do Ó, B. Ruf, and P. Ubilla, namely, the inequality \[ \sup\Big\{\int_B |u(x)|^{2^\star+|x|^α} dx : u\in H^1_{0,{\rm rad}}(B), \|\nabla u\|_{L^2(B)} =1\Big\} < +\infty \] holds. In this work, we generalize the above inequality for higher order Sobolev spaces of radially symmetric functions on $B$, namely, the embedding \[ H^m_{0,{\rm rad}}(B) \hookrightarrow L_{2_m^\star + |x|^α} (B) \] with $2\leq m < n/2$, $2_m^* = 2n/(n-2m)$, and $α>0$ holds. Questions concerning the sharp constant for the inequality including the existence of the optimal functions are also studied. To illustrate the finding, an application to a boundary value problem on balls driven by polyharmonic operators is presented. This is the first in a set of our works concerning functional inequalities in the supercritical regime.

description: The Landau-Selberg-Delange method provides an asymptotic formula for the partial sums of a multiplicative function whose average value on primes is a fixed complex number $v$. The shape of this asymptotic implies that $f$ can get very small on average only if $v=0,-1,-2,\dots$. Moreover, if $v<0$, then the Dirichlet series associated to $f$ must have a zero of multiplicity $-v$ at $s=1$. In this paper, we prove a converse result that shows that if $f$ is a multiplicative function that is bounded by a suitable divisor function, and $f$ has very small partial sums, then there must be finitely many real numbers $γ_1$, $\dots$, $γ_m$ such that $f(p)\approx -p^{iγ_1}-\cdots-p^{-iγ_m}$ on average. The numbers $γ_j$ correspond to ordinates of zeroes of the Dirichlet series associated to $f$, counted with multiplicity. This generalizes a result of the first author, who handled the case when $|f|\le 1$ in previous work.

description: We present the exact O(alpha) correction to the process e+ e- -> f f-bar + gamma, f neq e, for ISR oplus FSR at and beyond LEP2 energies. We give explicit formulas for the completely differential cross section. As an important application, we compute the size of the respective sub-leading corrections of O(alpha L) to the f f-bar cross section, where L is the respective big logarithm in the renormalization group sense so that it is identifiable as L = ln |s|/m_e^2 when s is the squared e+e- cms energy. Comparisons are made with the available literature. We show explicitly that our results have the correct infrared limit, as a cross-check. Some comments are made about the implementation of our results in the framework of the Monte Carlo event generator KK MC.

description: Working with contexts is a key component to design and technology activity and education. The most recent iteration of the national curriculum programme of study for design and technology, in England, sets out that children between the ages of 5 and 7 “should work in a range of relevant contexts” (DfE, 2013: 193); suggested contexts including “home and school, gardens and playgrounds, the local community, industry and the wider environment”. Whilst these are real world and familiar contexts, fictional contexts also provide opportunities for developing “creative spaces” in which to speculate and discuss. This intrinsic case study explores the work of two primary teachers’ development of a design and technology activity, where traditional tales provide the context. Children explore design problems and opportunities through the eyes of the Billy Goats Gruff, as they seek assistance to cross the river. Data was gathered through semi structured interviews and document analysis of children’s design work. The case study reveals how multidisciplinary and imaginative approaches to teaching and learning in the primary classroom simulate and nurture design thinking, dialogue and critique.

Spontaneous breaking of the rotational symmetry induced by monopoles in extra dimensions

description: We propose a field theoretical model that exhibits spontaneous breaking of the rotational symmetry. The model has a two-dimensional sphere as extra dimensions of the space-time and consists of a complex scalar field and a background gauge field. The Dirac monopole, which is invariant under the rotations of the sphere, is taken as the background field. We show that when the radius of the sphere is larger than a certain critical radius, the vacuum expectation value of the scalar field develops vortices, which pin down the rotational symmetry to lower symmetries. We evaluate the critical radius and calculate configurations of the vortices by the lowest approximation. The original model has a $U(1) \times SU(2)$ symmetry and it is broken to U(1), U(1), D_3 for each case of the monopole number q = 1/2, 1, 3/2, respectively, where D_3 is the symmetry group of a regular triangle. Moreover, we show that the vortex configurations are stable against higher corrections of the perturbative approximation.

Wave modes excited by photospheric p-modes and mode conversion in a multi-loop system

description: Context. Waves are ubiquitous in the solar corona and there are indications that they are excited by photospheric p-modes. However, it is unclear how p-modes in coronal loops are converted to sausage modes and transverse (kink) modes, which are observed in the corona. Aims. We aim to investigate how those wave modes are excited in the lower corona by photospheric acoustic waves. Methods. We built 3D magnetohydrostatic loop systems with multiple inclinations spanning from the photosphere to the lower corona. We then simulated these atmospheres with the MANCHA code, in which we perturb the equilibrium with a p-mode driver at the bottom of the domain. By splitting the velocity perturbation into components longitudinal, normal, and azimuthal to the magnetic flux surfaces we can study wave behavior. Results. In vertical flux tubes, we find that deformed fast sausage surface waves and slow sausage body waves are excited. In inclined flux tubes fast kink surface waves, slow sausage body waves, and either a fast sausage surface wave or a plane wave are excited. In addition, we calculate a wave conversion factor (0 $\le$ C $\le$ 1) from acoustic to magnetic wave behavior by taking the ratio of the mean magnetic energy flux to the sum of the mean magnetic and acoustic energy flux and compare it to a commonly used theoretical conversion factor. We find that between magnetic field inclinations of 10$^\circ$ to 30$^\circ$ those two methods lie within 40%. For smaller inclinations the absolute deviation is smaller than 0.1.

description: The basic principles and results of Conservative Logic introduced by Fredkin and Toffoli on the basis of a seminal paper of Landauer are extended to d-valued logics, with a special attention to three-valued logics. Different approaches to d-valued logics are examined in order to determine some possible universal sets of logic primitives. In particular, we consider the typical connectives of Lukasiewicz and Godel logics, as well as Chang's MV-algebras. As a result, some possible three-valued and d-valued universal gates are described which realize a functionally complete set of fundamental connectives.

description: The production of the neutron-capture isotopes beyond iron that we observe today in the solar system is the result of the combined contribution of the r-process, the s- process and possibly the i-process. Low-mass AGB (2 < M/Msun < 3) and massive (M >10 Msun ) stars have been identified as the sites of the s-process. In this work we consider the evolution and nucleosynthesis of low-mass AGB stars. We provide an update of the NuGrid Set models, adopting the same general physics assumptions but using an updated convective-boundary mixing model accounting for the contribution from internal gravity waves. The combined data set includes the initial masses Mzams/Msun = 2, 3 for Z = 0.03, 0.02, 0.01. These models are computed with the MESA stellar code and the evolution is followed up to the end of the AGB phase. The nucleosynthesis was calculated for all isotopes in post-processing with the NuGrid mppnp code. The convective boundary mixing model leads to the formation of a 13C-pocket three times wider compared to the one obtained in the previous set of models, bringing the simulation results now in closer agreement with observations. We also discuss the potential impact of other processes inducing mixing, like rotation, adopting parametric models compatible with theory and observations. Complete yield data tables, derived data products and online analytic data access are provided.

description: This paper summarises an emerging new theory of competition, contrasts the new theory with the 1980’s view, and outlines the main implications for managers and public policy makers. This new perspective on competition is termed the Resource-Advantage (R-A) Theory. The R-A Theory is grounded in empirical research which shows that variation between firms account for 45- 58% of firm profitability compared with industry effects of around 8-10%. This means that the key strategic task of managers is to create and nurture the resources and core competencies of the firm, rather than simply to decide which industries to compete in. The conventional wisdom in the 80’s was that strategy was essentially about the fit between the firm and its environment. The R-A view, on the other hand, maintains that strategy is about creating core competencies and other strategic resources so that the firm can positively influence its environment. The successful firm is pro-active, not just reactive. The new theory also points out that industry level analysis - as exemplified by Michael Porter’s 5-Forces model - is not an appropriate tool for analysing individual firms. In this paper, we show that the 80’s perspective on using industry as the key influencer of firm profitability, and the inappropriate use of industry analysis at the firm level leads to a dialogue breakdown between managers and public policy makers concerned with competition, productivity and economic growth. We also show that superior performance is a reward for meeting customer needs and may be complementary to public policy. Successful firms need not be apologetic. The paper concludes with the main implications for managers and public policy makers.

Obscuring Material around Seyfert Nuclei with Starbursts

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The structure of obscuring matter in the environment of active galactic nuclei with associated nuclear starbursts is investigated using 3-D hydrodynamical simulations. Simple analytical estimates suggest that the obscuring matter with energy feedback from supernovae has a torus-like structure with a radius of several tens of parsecs and a scale height of about 10 pc. These estimates are confirmed by the fully non-linear numerical simulations, in which the multi-phase inhomogeneous interstellar matter and its interaction with the supernovae are consistently followed. The globally stable, torus-like structure is highly inhomogeneous and turbulent. To achieve the high column densities (> 10^{24} cm^{-2}) as suggested by observations of some Seyfert 2 galaxies with nuclear starbursts, the viewing angle should be larger than about 70 degree from the pole-on for a 10^8 solar mass massive black hole. Due to the inhomogeneous internal structure of the torus, the observed column density is sensitive to the line-of-sight, and it fluctuates by a factor of order 100. The covering fraction for N > 10^{23} cm^{-2} is about 0.4. The average accretion rate toward R < 1 pc is 0.4 solar mass/yr, which is boosted to twice that in the model without the energy feedback.

description: 323. Meroplius Rondani, 1874c: 4, 9.
 ORIGINALLY INCLUDED SPECIES: Meroplius melitensis Rondani, 1874; Meroplius schembrii Rondani, 1874 (as “ Schembrii n.”); Nemopoda stercoraria Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 (as “ Nemopoda Stercoraria Macq. ”); Sepsis falleni Staeger, 1844 (as “ Fallenii Staeg.”); Sepsis lucidus Staeger, 1844.
 TYPE SPECIES: Nemopoda stercoraria Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 (as “ Nemopoda Stercoraria Macq. ”), by original designation.
 CURRENT STATUS: Valid genus [teste Rozkošný & Elberg (1984: 156)].
FAMILY: SEPSIDAE.
 REMARKS: Previous listings of the type species have it as a junior synonym of Sepsis minutus Wiedemann, 1830, but this is incorrect. Robineau-Desvoidy’s 1830 paper came out 6 June while Wiedemann’s 1830 paper came out four months later on 1 September [see Evenhuis et al. (2010b) for dating of the former and Evenhuis (1997: 821) for dating of the latter]. Therefore, the valid name for the type species is Nemopoda stercoraria Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830.

description: Many blockchain transactions require blockchain-external data sources to provide data. Oracle systems have been proposed as a link between blockchains and blockchain-external resources. However, these Oracle systems vary greatly in assumptions and applicability and each system addresses the challenge of data on-chaining partly. We argue that Data On-chaining must be done in a trustworthy manner and, as a first contribution, define a set of key requirements for Trustworthy Data On-chaining. Further, we provide an in-depth assessment and comparison of state-of-the-art Oracle systems with regards to these requirements. This differentiation pinpoints the need for a uniform understanding of and directions for future research on Trustworthy Data On-chaining.

description: This case describes the opportunities and dilemmas faced by managers of agribusiness firms as they contemplate forming a strategic alliance in a fresh produce category. It challenges each of the managers to evaluate their own 'readiness to partner' and to define their expectations of their prospective partners. The case highlights that the success of strategy alliances is closely linked to how complementary the firms are in terms of culture strategy and structure. Although Franklins supermarkets no longer exist in Australia, the principles of supply chain partnerships outlined in this case are still valid. In 2002, The Mulgowie Farming Company was named Woolworths Supply of the Year

description: Previous research has presented the concept of self-engineering (SE) systems that aim to identify and preserve system functions autonomously. Examples of self-engineering responses include self-healing, self-repair, self-adapting and self-reconfiguration. Biology already utilises many of these responses to repair and survive, greater understanding of complexity in these biological systems could improve future bioinspired designs. This paper provides a novel systematic evaluation of the complexity of SE biological systems. Eight biological self-engineering systems identified are evaluated using Axiomatic design and complexity. The key functional requirements and design parameters for each biological system are identified. Design matrices were used to highlight different types of complexity. A further evaluation of eight SE biological systems is performed using the SE complexity theory; nine experts and 23 students used the complexity theory to complete a ranking exercise. The results of the ranking were analysed and compared, with a final normalised mean plotted for each factor and biological system. From the analysis of both studies, proposed design rules are presented to help designers handle complexity while creating new self-engineering systems inspired by biology.

description: The development of supply chains in agriculture has resulted in improved efficiencies and greater returns but the distribution of benefits within the chain is just beginning to be considered. Farmers, because they are perfectly competitive firms, face particular challenges in dealing with supply chains, which are otherwise composed of oligopolistic firms. In order to secure an equitable distribution of benefits from a supply chain, farmers will have to form some sort of group (e.g. a cooperative). Cooperatives, however, have a number of well-documented shortcomings as an institutional form. This paper identifies factors associated with the successful formation of collaborative groups drawing on experiences in Australia and the United States. Key success factors common to both countries include strong leadership, planning, the development of effective standard operating procedures, the creation and sustenance of social capital, and the availability of outside assistance. An agenda for research and outreach by universities and others is proposed.

Impact of imperfect annotations on CNN training and performance for instance segmentation and classification in digital pathology

description: Segmentation and classification of large numbers of instances, such as cell nuclei, are crucial tasks in digital pathology for accurate diagnosis. However, the availability of high-quality datasets for deep learning methods is often limited due to the complexity of the annotation process. In this work, we investigate the impact of noisy annotations on the training and performance of a state-of-the-art CNN model for the combined task of detecting, segmenting and classifying nuclei in histopathology images. In this context, we investigate the conditions for determining an appropriate number of training epochs to prevent overfitting to annotation noise during training. Our results indicate that the utilisation of a small, correctly annotated validation set is instrumental in avoiding overfitting and maintaining model performance to a large extent. Additionally, our findings underscore the beneficial role of pre-training.
Quantum exceptional points of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians and Liouvillians: The effects of quantum jumps

description: Exceptional points (EPs) correspond to degeneracies of open systems. These are attracting much interest in optics, optoelectronics, plasmonics, and condensed matter physics. In the classical and semiclassical approaches, Hamiltonian EPs (HEPs) are usually defined as degeneracies of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians such that at least two eigenfrequencies are identical and the corresponding eigenstates coalesce. HEPs result from continuous, mostly slow, nonunitary evolution without quantum jumps. Clearly, quantum jumps should be included in a fully quantum approach to make it equivalent to, e.g., the Lindblad master-equation approach. Thus, we suggest to define EPs via degeneracies of a Liouvillian superoperator (including the full Lindbladian term, LEPs), and we clarify the relations between HEPs and LEPs. We prove two main theorems: Theorem 1 proves that, in the quantum limit, LEPs and HEPs must have essentially different properties. Theorem 2 dictates a condition under which, in the ``semiclassical'' limit, LEPs and HEPs recover the same properties. In particular, we show the validity of Theorem 1 studying systems which have (1) an LEP but no HEPs, and (2) both LEPs and HEPs but for shifted parameters. As for Theorem 2, (3) we show that these two types of EPs become essentially equivalent in the semiclassical limit. We introduce a series of mathematical techniques to unveil analogies and differences between the HEPs and LEPs. We analytically compare LEPs and HEPs for some quantum and semiclassical prototype models with loss and gain.

title: Combinatorial acyclicity models for potential‐based flows
Creators: name: Habeck, Oliver
name: Pfetsch, Marc E.
Publisher: name: Wiley
Year: 2024

description: Potential‐based flows constitute a basic model to represent physical behavior in networks. Under natural assumptions, the flow in such networks must be acyclic. The goal of this article is to exploit this property for the solution of corresponding optimization problems. To this end, we introduce several combinatorial models for acyclic flows, based on binary variables for flow directions. We compare these models and introduce a particular model that tries to capture acyclicity together with the supply/demand behavior. We analyze properties of this model, including variable fixing rules. Our computational results show that the usage of the corresponding constraints speeds up solution times by about a factor of 3 on average and a speed‐up of a factor of almost 5 for the time to prove optimality.
Tailoring Single and Multiphoton Probabilities of a Single Photon On-Demand Source

description: As typically implemented, single photon sources cannot be made to produce single photons with high probability, while simultaneously suppressing the probability of yielding two or more photons. Because of this, single photon sources cannot really produce single photons on demand. We describe a multiplexed system that allows the probabilities of producing one and more photons to be adjusted independently, enabling a much better approximation of a source of single photons on demand.

description: This essay presents a comprehensive evaluation of various classification algorithms used for the detection of exoplanets using labeled time series data from the Kepler mission. The study investigates the performance of six commonly employed algorithms, namely Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, Logistic Regression, K-Nearest Neighbors, Naive Bayes, and Decision Tree. The evaluation process involves analyzing a dataset that consists of time series measurements of star brightness, accompanied by labels indicating the presence or absence of exoplanets.
To assess the effectiveness of each algorithm in accurately identifying exoplanets, performance metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score are employed. The results demonstrate that the Random Forest algorithm achieves the highest accuracy of 94.2\\%, followed closely by the Support Vector Machine with 93.8 percent accuracy. The Logistic Regression algorithm achieves an accuracy of 91.5 percent, while the K-Nearest Neighbors, Naive Bayes, and Decision Tree algorithms achieve accuracies of 89.6\\%, 87.3\\%, and 85.9\\% respectively.
Furthermore, the precision, recall, and F1 score metrics provide insights into the strengths and weaknesses of each classifier. The Random Forest algorithm exhibits a precision of 0.92, recall of 0.95, and F1 score of 0.93, indicating a balanced performance in correctly identifying both positive and negative instances. The Support Vector Machine also demonstrates strong performance with precision, recall, and F1 score values of 0.91, 0.94, and 0.92 respectively. Overall, the evaluation highlights the suitability of the Random Forest and Support Vector Machine algorithms for exoplanet detection tasks using Kepler-labeled time series data. These findings contribute to the advancement of our understanding of the exoplanet detection process and aid in the selection of appropriate algorithms for future studies.
