Creators: name: Chen, Kai
name: Wu, Ling-An
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present a generalized partial transposition separability criterion for the density matrix of a multipartite quantum system. This criterion comprises as special cases the famous Peres-Horodecki criterion and the recent realignment criterion in [O. Rudolph, quant-ph/0202121] and [K. Chen, L.A. Wu, quant-ph/0205017]. It involves only straightforward matrix manipulations and is easy to apply. A quantitative measure of entanglement based on this criterion is also obtained.

description: Medical image segmentation is a critical component in clinical practice, facilitating accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, and disease monitoring. However, existing methods, often tailored to specific modalities or disease types, lack generalizability across the diverse spectrum of medical image segmentation tasks. Here we present MedSAM, a foundation model designed for bridging this gap by enabling universal medical image segmentation. The model is developed on a large-scale medical image dataset with 1,570,263 image-mask pairs, covering 10 imaging modalities and over 30 cancer types. We conduct a comprehensive evaluation on 86 internal validation tasks and 60 external validation tasks, demonstrating better accuracy and robustness than modality-wise specialist models. By delivering accurate and efficient segmentation across a wide spectrum of tasks, MedSAM holds significant potential to expedite the evolution of diagnostic tools and the personalization of treatment plans.

description: Rotating quarks and hadronic systems, produced in peripheral heavy ion collisions, can experience Coriolis force and other forces due to rotational motion. Considering only the effect of Coriolis force, we have calculated the electrical conductivity for non-relativistic rotating matter using the Relaxation Time Approximation based Boltzmann transport equation. A similarity in mathematical calculations of electrical conductivity at finite rotation and finite magnetic fields is exposed, where an equivalence role between Coriolis force on massive particle's motion and Lorentz force on charged particle's motion is noticed. As the beginning level step, we consider only the Coriolis force in the non-relativistic formalism, which will be extended in the future towards the relativistic case, and to adopt other forces for a more realistic description of the rotating quark and hadronic system.

description: Using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), we studied the vortex states of single-layer FeSe film on SrTiO3 (100) substrate, and the local behaviors of superconductivity at sample boundaries. We clearly observed multiple discrete Caroli-de Gennes-Matricon (CdGM) states in the vortex core, and quantitative analysis shows their energies well follow the formula: E = μΔ^2/E_F, where μ is a half integer and Δ is the mean superconducting gap over the Fermi surface. Meanwhile, a fully gapped spectrum without states near zero bias is observed at [110](Fe) oriented boundary of 1 ML and 2 ML FeSe films, and atomic step edge of 1 ML FeSe. Accompanied with theoretical calculations, our results indicate a s-wave pairing without sign-change in the high-TC FeSe_SrTiO3 superconductor.

description: In this paper we explicitly describe the symbolic powers of curves ${\mathcal C}(q,m)$ in ${\mathbb P}^3$ parametrized by $( x^{d+2m}, x^{d+m} y^m, x^{d} y^{2m}, y^{d+2m})$, where $q,m$ are positive integers, $d=2q+1$ and $\gcd(d,m)=1$. The defining ideal of these curves is a set-theoretic complete intersection. We show that the symbolic blowup algebra is Noetherian and Gorenstein. An explicit formula for the resurgence and the Waldschmidt constant of the prime ideal ${\mathfrak p}:={\mathfrak p}_{ { \mathcal C}(q,m) }$ defining the curve ${\mathcal C}(q,m)$ is computed. We also give a formula for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the symbolic powers ${\mathfrak p}^{(n)}$ for all $n \geq 1$.

description: Under mild assumptions, we construct the two Matlis additive category equivalences for an associative ring epimorphism $u\colon R\to U$. Assuming that the ring epimorphism is homological of flat/projective dimension $1$, we discuss the abelian categories of $u$-comodules and $u$-contramodules and construct the recollement of unbounded derived categories of $R$-modules, $U$-modules, and complexes of $R$-modules with $u$-co/contramodule cohomology. Further assumptions allow to describe the third category in the recollement as the unbounded derived category of the abelian categories of $u$-comodules and $u$-contramodules. For commutative rings, we also prove that any homological epimorphism of projective dimension $1$ is flat. Injectivity of the map $u$ is not required.

Heritage tourism

description: This study explores the inherent tensions that exist between urban growth and cultural heritage sites in the context of Lalibela, Ethiopia. Lalibela, located in the northern part of Ethiopia is renowned for its eleven rock-hewn churches that are World Heritage Sites. The site features, a 12th-century church construction technique with monolithic edifices connected in a system of trenches and passageways. The churches are believed to have been designed and constructed by King Lalibela who was endeavoring to build a second Jerusalem. Besides the heritage status of Lalibela, the site is considered holy by followers of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. As a result, each year, it attracts thousands of tourists and pilgrims alike. Lalibela is a primary tourism site in Ethiopia that fetches high revenues for the country, and since its inscription into the World Heritage List, the site has witnessed large urban growth. Backed by the pro-poor tourism policy of the state, which uses tourism as a strategy towards achieving developmental goals, and the urban policy which encourages sprawling towns, the tourism industry is fueling the urbanization of rural areas. This, in turn, is altering lifestyles and identities of districts. Among many of these districts is a small rural town called Neakutoleab, located south of Lalibela where a monastery of the same name exists. The monastery has religious, architectural, historical and natural significance whose attributes are threatened by the expanding town of Lalibela. Through the close up study of the relevance of this monastery, the sociocultural status of the community, and its lifestyle, the urban and tourism policies of the administration are evaluated. Furthermore, the tensions between developmental and heritage protection goals and necessary tradeoffs are discussed. Finally, mitigation strategies are recommended along with different parameters for plans that protect the heritage site while making appropriate accommodation for continued growth.

description: Threshold estimation methods are developed for dynamic panels with individual specific fixed effects covering short time periods. Maximum likelihood estimation of the threshold and slope parameters is proposed using first difference transformations. Threshold estimate is shown to be consistent and its asymptotic distribution is nonstandard when the number of individuals grows to infinity for a fixed time period; the slope estimates are consistent and asymptotically normally distributed. The method is applied to a sample of 74 countries and 11 periods of 5-year averages to determine the effect of inflation rate on long-run economic growth.

description: We exploit altered patterns in brain functional connectivity as features for automatic discriminative analysis of neuropsychiatric patients. Deep learning methods have been introduced to functional network classification only very recently for fMRI, and the proposed architectures essentially focused on a single type of connectivity measure. We propose a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) framework for classification of electroencephalogram (EEG)-derived brain connectome in schizophrenia (SZ). To capture complementary aspects of disrupted connectivity in SZ, we explore combination of various connectivity features consisting of time and frequency-domain metrics of effective connectivity based on vector autoregressive model and partial directed coherence, and complex network measures of network topology. We design a novel multi-domain connectome CNN (MDC-CNN) based on a parallel ensemble of 1D and 2D CNNs to integrate the features from various domains and dimensions using different fusion strategies. Hierarchical latent representations learned by the multiple convolutional layers from EEG connectivity reveal apparent group differences between SZ and healthy controls (HC). Results on a large resting-state EEG dataset show that the proposed CNNs significantly outperform traditional support vector machine classifiers. The MDC-CNN with combined connectivity features further improves performance over single-domain CNNs using individual features, achieving remarkable accuracy of $93.06\%$ with a decision-level fusion. The proposed MDC-CNN by integrating information from diverse brain connectivity descriptors is able to accurately discriminate SZ from HC. The new framework is potentially useful for developing diagnostic tools for SZ and other disorders.

description: We give a review and some new relations on the structure of the monodromy algebra (also called loop algebra) associated with a quasitriangular Hopf algebra H. It is shown that as an algebra it coincides with the so-called braided group constructed by S. Majid on the dual of H. Gauge transformations act on monodromy algebras via the coadjoint action. Applying a result of Majid, the resulting crossed product is isomorphic to the Drinfeld double D(H). Hence, under the so-called factorizability condition given by N. Reshetikhin and M. Semenov-Tian- Shansky, both algebras are isomorphic to the algbraic tensor product H\otimes H. It is indicated that in this way the results of Alekseev et al. on lattice current algebras are consistent with the theory of more general Hopf spin chains given by K. Szlachányi and the author. In the Appendix the multi-loop algebras L_m of Alekseev and Schomerus [AS] are identified with braided tensor products of monodromy algebras in the sense of Majid, which leads to an explanation of the ``bosonization formula'' of [AS] representing L_m as H\otimes\dots\otimes H.

description: We introduce a new approach for solving forward systems of differential equations using a combination of splitting methods and physics-informed neural networks (PINNs). The proposed method, splitting PINN, effectively addresses the challenge of applying PINNs to forward dynamical systems and demonstrates improved accuracy through its application to neuron models. Specifically, we apply operator splitting to decompose the original neuron model into sub-problems that are then solved using PINNs. Moreover, we develop an $L^1$ scheme for discretizing fractional derivatives in fractional neuron models, leading to improved accuracy and efficiency. The results of this study highlight the potential of splitting PINNs in solving both integer- and fractional-order neuron models, as well as other similar systems in computational science and engineering.

description: The purpose of this research study was to examine how STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) teachers incorporate culturally relevant teaching and multicultural education into their syllabi to prepare pre-service teachers (PSTs) with the expectation that this pedagogical method would result in successfully teaching diverse students. This study explored the history of K-12 STEM education as well as the access, participation, and performance of Black and Hispanic students in AP STEM courses. The final focus of the study was to examine how high school teachers of Advanced Placement (AP) STEM courses infuse culturally relevant practices into their teaching. The study examined data about the professional teaching experience, culturally relevant teaching (CRT) philosophy, and practices of teachers and how they create their syllabi to integrate culturally relevant teaching as they prepare pre-service teachers. In addition, it also examined and analyzed data from interviews with AP STEM teachers on the pedagogical and curricular materials they utilize to support the cultural diversity of students. The findings show that teacher educators and STEM in-service teachers are familiar with CRT and acknowledge its effectiveness as a strategy in reducing the achievement gaps that exist in the education of Black and Hispanic students when compared to White students. The findings also indicate that many teacher educators and in-service teachers can translate their understanding of CRT into practice as evidenced by the examination of their syllabi and lesson plans. However, teacher educators experience challenges in helping their PSTs see the relevancy of culture or culturally relevant teaching in STEM, and the AP teachers of STEM courses experienced challenges in maintaining student engagement and improving scores on the AP exams. This study suggests the necessity of supporting both STEM teacher educators and STEM in-service teachers through professional development to inform and support culturally relevant teaching in STEM education.
Cultural Values Religiosity and Spirituality as Predictors of Professional Psychological Help-Seeking Behavior of Black Adults in the United States
Creators: Rougier, Cecilia
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2011
Subjects: Counseling psychology

description: Many Black adults in the United States experience significant mental health problems in their lives yet are reticent to seek professional psychological help. This underutilization of mental health services has been documented in several studies and national reports. Various factors have been identified over the years as researchers attempted to understand the discrepancy between the psychological services that Black adults need and what they access. With the continued low level of access, researchers have begun to examine this behavior within the cultural context of the Black community. More particularly research has focused on investigating how cultural values impact health behavior and might influence the mental health behavior of Black adults in the United States. This study examined a cluster of cultural values to identify how they might be related to professional psychological help-seeking behavior. More specifically, the study investigated whether collectivism/individualism, fatalism, famalism, spirituality and religiosity would predict professional help-seeking behavior for 343 Black adult men and women from the Northeastern and Southeastern United States. Multiple regression analyses and Chi Square tests were used to analyze the data. A logistic regression model including all of the variables just noted was significantly predictive of whether professional psychological help had been sought. In subsequent univariate analyses controlling for the effects of the other variables in the model, only familism was found to be a unique predictor of professional help-seeking behavior and was negatively related to having sought help. Similar results were obtained for a linear regression examining whether the predictors together would predict intentions to seek counseling. In the presence of all the predictors, spirituality was a positively significant predictor over and above the effects of the other variables. Demographic variables (education, years in the U.S., having a family member in therapy, and having a mental health professional in the social network) were positive predictors of help-seeking behavior and intentions to seek counseling. Age was negatively related to intentions to seek counseling. The study also examined whether intentions to seek counseling could be used as a proxy to actual behavior as proposed by the theory of Planned Behavior, and this was supported by the results of a logistic regression that showed intentions to be a positively significant predictor of help-seeking behavior. Chi Square tests examining the difference between the help-seeking behavior of Black men and women found no significant difference. The implications for practice, research and training were discussed.

description: This study is an examination of how two popular magazines, National Geographic and Life magazine, and one educational journal, Social Education, perform the work of representation in general, and representing China more specifically. Drawing on postcolonial theorists (Blaut, 1993; Said, 1978; Tchen, 1999; wa Thiong'o, 1986; Willinsky, 1998), the perspectives employed throughout this study explore how representations can work to fix meaning and extend difference through imperialist structures and an orientalist lens. In addition, theories of photographic representation work alongside postcolonial perspectives to draw out the constructed nature of representation, and how representation - through language and/or image - can work to capture and secure the meaning of difference and perpetuate division.
      National Geographic, Life, and Social Education are pedagogical in different ways, yet all three used language and image to bring China into view for the Western reader. Conceptualized as sources of cultural pedagogy, these journals employed specific pedagogical practices, which reinforced imperialist structures of Western dominance over the non-Western world. Notably, National Geographic's travelogue, Life's photo-essay, and Social Education's educational resources, worked to teach/instruct their readers, primarily middle class Americans, about China.

description: In federated learning (FL), a cluster of local clients are chaired under the coordination of the global server and cooperatively train one model with privacy protection. Due to the multiple local updates and the isolated non-iid dataset, clients are prone to overfit into their own optima, which extremely deviates from the global objective and significantly undermines the performance. Most previous works only focus on enhancing the consistency between the local and global objectives to alleviate this prejudicial client drifts from the perspective of the optimization view, whose performance would be prominently deteriorated on the high heterogeneity. In this work, we propose a novel and general algorithm {\ttfamily FedSMOO} by jointly considering the optimization and generalization targets to efficiently improve the performance in FL. Concretely, {\ttfamily FedSMOO} adopts a dynamic regularizer to guarantee the local optima towards the global objective, which is meanwhile revised by the global Sharpness Aware Minimization (SAM) optimizer to search for the consistent flat minima. Our theoretical analysis indicates that {\ttfamily FedSMOO} achieves fast $\mathcal{O}(1/T)$ convergence rate with low generalization bound. Extensive numerical studies are conducted on the real-world dataset to verify its peerless efficiency and excellent generality.

description: Many large-scaled pandemics and disease outbreaks have been recorded in human history, causing enormous negative impacts on health, economies, and even affecting international security in the world. Recent years have seen many rapidly spreading outbreaks such as the Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, SARS, H5N1 influenza, H1N1 influenza, Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), Ebola and the Zika virus. Not all of these diseases are new, but population movements have increased in both scale and speed, so there are greater risks that infectious diseases will spread rapidly to multiple countries. Pandemic crises have had serious consequences on health, tourism, travel, trade and have even caused significant political and social disruptions. Thus, effective public health emergency management to prevent and control pandemics is very important. For effective emergency management of pandemics, which are inherently unpredictable and widespread, preparedness, timely decision-making and comprehensive response involving relevant sectors are critical. But adequate preparedness and appropriate response rely on effective communication and coordination among stakeholders as well as the amount of information available at any given time, and these require a multi-sectoral approach with information sharing and communication as key tools for the prevention and management of infectious diseases outbreaks. However, multi-sectoral collaboration, coordination, information sharing and communication are often the key challenges and problems encountered in dealing with public health emergencies.

Limits on High-Frequency Gravitational Waves in Planetary Magnetospheres

description: High-frequency gravitational waves (HFGWs) carry a wealth of information on the early Universe with a tiny comoving horizon and astronomical objects of small scale but with dense energy. We demonstrate that the nearby planets, such as Earth and Jupiter, can be utilized as a laboratory for detecting the HFGWs. These GWs are then expected to convert to signal photons in the planetary magnetosphere, across the frequency band of astronomical observation. As a proof of concept, we present the first limits from the existing low-Earth-orbit satellite for specific frequency bands and project the sensitivities for the future more-dedicated detections. The first limits from Juno, the latest mission orbiting Jupiter, are also presented. Attributed to the long path of effective GW-photon conversion and the wide angular distribution of signal flux, we find that these limits are highly encouraging, for a broad frequency range including a large portion unexplored before.

The force on a point charge source of the classical electromagnetic field

description: It is shown that a well-defined expression for the total electromagnetic force $f^{em}$ on a point charge source of the classical electromagnetic field can be extracted from the postulate of total momentum conservation whenever the classical electromagnetic field theory satisfies a handful of regularity conditions. Amongst these is the generic local integrability of the field momentum density over a neighborhood of the point charge. This disqualifies the textbook Maxwell-Lorentz field equations, while the Maxwell-Bopp-Lande-Thomas-Podolsky field equations qualify, and presumably so do the Maxwell-Born-Infeld field equations. Most importantly, when the usual relativistic relation between the velocity and the momentum of a point charge with bare rest mass $m_b \neq 0$ is postulated, Newton's law $\dot{p} = f$ with $f = f^{em}$ becomes an integral equation for the point particle's acceleration; the infamous third-order time derivative of the position which plagues the Abraham-Lorentz-Dirac equation of motion does not show up. No infinite bare mass renormalization is invoked, and no ad hoc averaging of fields over a neighborhood of the point charge. The approach lays the rigorous microscopic foundations of classical electrodynamics.

title: Pasifika Student Self-Efficacy: Minding the Mindset of Success

subject: student support

description: In recent decades, there has been an influx of Pasifika peoples into Australia via Aotearoa (New Zealand), often motivated by educational and employment opportunities. However, there is a paucity of research in Australia relating to the educational journey of Pasifika students and therefore a lack of evidence to support the development of robust initiatives to increase participation, retention, and success of this student cohort at university. In this study, I have provided some much-needed insights into Pasifika student success: the tensions, ambiguities, and ambivalences of self-efficacy formation as Pasifika students engage in Australian universities in preparation for their intended professions in the global marketplace. The research insights extend Hau’ofa’s metaphor of the Pacific Ocean to these shores: an ocean that Western knowledges assert separates the islands within it, as opposed to traditional Pasifika knowledges that assert the ocean is that which connects them. These perspectives platform diverging narratives and mindsets, feelings and behaviours – one of hopelessness and the other of hope. Narrative inquiry, and its key dimensions of temporality, place, and sociality, was adopted as the methodology for the study, due to its alignment to Pasifika worldviews and its ability to foreground the participants’ stories about their success and self-efficacy. The research was underpinned by postcolonial theory and informed by Pacific epistemology and ontologies. Six Pasifika students and graduates participated in this research – two were university students at the time of the interviews, two were recent graduates (graduating in the year before the interviews), and two were graduates who had been working in management positions in their given industries. Their stories or narratives were presented as a whole and aligned with the research lens of narrative inquiry. Four themes emerged from their narratives: (a) sources of self-efficacy, (b) the impacts of their self-efficacy on their educational outputs, (c) bridges and barriers to educational success for Pasifika peoples, and (d) self-efficacy in the collective context. The findings of this study inform the development of educational initiatives to support Pasifika student self-efficacy and success so that the motives for migration may be realised. The research concluded that Pasifika students are motivated by the collective success of their surrounding community: family, peers, church, and/or the Pasifika community in general. Current self-efficacy measures need to incorporate the effects of collective cultures on educational outputs to be relevant for Pasifika peoples. Incorporating this collectivity can allow for more comprehensive data to evidence the real protective factors for Pasifika success.

description: We have studied the shadows of a Schwarzschild black hole surrounded by a Bach-Weyl ring through the backward ray-tracing method. The presence of Bach-Weyl ring leads to that the photon dynamical system is non-integrable and then chaos would appear in the photon motion, which affects sharply the black hole shadow. The size and shape the black hole shadow depend on the black hole parameter, the Bach-Weyl ring mass and the Weyl radius between black hole and ring. Some self-similar fractal structures also appear in the black hole shadow, which originates from the chaotic lensing. We also study the change of the image of Bach-Weyl ring with the ring mass and the Weyl radius. Finally, we analyze the invariant manifolds of Lyapunov orbits near the fixed points and discuss further the formation of the shadow of a Schwarzschild black hole with Bach-Weyl ring.
