description: Aspicilia exserta Hue (1910: 57)
 Type (lectotype, designated here):— KOREA. Ryong-Kang, 01 September 1906, R. P. Faurie 414 (LE L-7526a!, isolectotype PC 0090795).
 According to Hue Aspicilia exserta differs by its thick whitish thallus with protruding apothecia which sometimes fuse together. The type specimen has furthermore convex areoles and bigger apothecia with thalline margin compared to the type of the previous species (Fig. 1B). However spore measurements do not differ substantially from those of A. adamanticola: (17.0) 18.3–[18.8]–19.2 (21.0) × (10.5) 11.4–[11.7]–11.9 (13.0) μm (n=10). The secondary metabolite is norstictic acid. Hue did not find conidiomata in this species, but we managed to reveal some conidia, which are 12 μm long. They are much shorter than those of A. adamanticola but agree in the size with conidia of A. cinerea (Foucard 2001). Chemical, morphological and anatomical characters of this species fall into variability of Aspicilia cinerea, with which we synonymize it here.

Statistical Arbitrage Mining for Display Advertising

description: We study and formulate arbitrage in display advertising. Real-Time Bidding (RTB) mimics stock spot exchanges and utilises computers to algorithmically buy display ads per impression via a real-time auction. Despite the new automation, the ad markets are still informationally inefficient due to the heavily fragmented marketplaces. Two display impressions with similar or identical effectiveness (e.g., measured by conversion or click-through rates for a targeted audience) may sell for quite different prices at different market segments or pricing schemes. In this paper, we propose a novel data mining paradigm called Statistical Arbitrage Mining (SAM) focusing on mining and exploiting price discrepancies between two pricing schemes. In essence, our SAMer is a meta-bidder that hedges advertisers' risk between CPA (cost per action)-based campaigns and CPM (cost per mille impressions)-based ad inventories; it statistically assesses the potential profit and cost for an incoming CPM bid request against a portfolio of CPA campaigns based on the estimated conversion rate, bid landscape and other statistics learned from historical data. In SAM, (i) functional optimisation is utilised to seek for optimal bidding to maximise the expected arbitrage net profit, and (ii) a portfolio-based risk management solution is leveraged to reallocate bid volume and budget across the set of campaigns to make a risk and return trade-off. We propose to jointly optimise both components in an EM fashion with high efficiency to help the meta-bidder successfully catch the transient statistical arbitrage opportunities in RTB. Both the offline experiments on a real-world large-scale dataset and online A/B tests on a commercial platform demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed solution in exploiting arbitrage in various model settings and market environments.

Dense normal subgroups and chief factors in locally compact groups

Subjects: subject: Group Theory (math.GR)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: In 'The essentially chief series of a compactly generated locally compact group', an analogue of chief series for finite groups is discovered for compactly generated locally compact groups. In the present article, we show that chief factors necessarily exist in all locally compact groups with sufficiently rich topological structure. We also show that chief factors have one of seven types, and for all but one of these types, there is a decomposition into discrete groups, compact groups, and topologically simple groups. Our results for chief factors require exploring the theory developed in 'Chief factors in Polish groups' in the setting of locally compact groups. In this context, we obtain tighter restrictions on the factorization of normal compressions and the structure of quasi-products. Consequently, both (non-)amenability and elementary decomposition rank are preserved by normal compressions.

description: Despite a growing body of literature examining the politics of city-regionalism, the question of how local actors engage with, and challenge each other in the subnational regulatory space requires greater attention if we are to develop a more comprehensive understanding of supposedly pluralist approaches to policy making. This paper critically evaluates policy innovations in Greater Manchester (GM) that seek to steer the behaviour of economic actors towards a mutually reinforcing model of decent work and social inclusion. We argue that underneath the expansive political agenda of the GM metro mayor, what has emerged so far is a relatively shallow form of consensus-based neo-pluralism that allows for elite consultation over issues of inclusive growth and responsible business rather than more radically redistributive or participatory policies. The implications for our understanding of the changing and often contradictory role of the state in shaping subnational regulation and governance are discussed.

description: The growing concentration of wealth has acquired a new urgency in recent years. One particular view in this context is developed by Ingrid Robeyns in her ground-breaking work on limitarianism. According to this view, no one should have more than a certain amount of valuable goods, such as income and wealth. The contributors to this symposium, Brian Berkey, David Axelsen and Lasse Nielsen, Jessica Flanigan and Christopher Freiman, and Lena Halldenius, critically examine various aspects of limitarianism. In particular, they examine how limitarianism should be interpreted and developed as a principle of justice, on what reasons speak in favour and against limitarianism, and on how limitarianism relates to other principles of distributive justice. Our hope is that this symposium will contribute to the ongoing debate in political philosophy about the concentration of wealth and economic justice.

description: The Lindblad equation is widely employed in studies of Markovian quantum open systems. Here, firstly, a simple result is presented on the time evolution of the non Neumann entropy under the Lindblad equation, which enables one to examine if the entropy increases/decreases. Then, secondly, the following question is posed: In a quantum open system with a time-dependent Hamiltonian, what is the corresponding Lindblad equation for the quantum state that keeps the internal energy of the system constant in time? This issue is of importance in realizing quasi-stationary states of open systems such as quantum circuits and batteries. As an illustrative example, the time-dependent harmonic oscillator is analyzed. The Lindbladian operator is uniquely determined with the help of a Lie-algebraic structure, and the time derivative of the von Neumann entropy is shown to be nonnegative depending on the time-dependence of the Hamiltonian.

 Type (lectotype, designated here):— JAPAN. Aomori, March 1899, R. P. Faurie 3528 (LE L-7519!, isolectotype BM 001107768 [digital photograph!]).
 Aspicilia aomoriana is externally very similar to the type specimen of Aspicilia verrucigera, which was described in the same paper (Fig. 1E). The former was places by Hue into the group III “Hyphae corticis superioris ramosae” while the latter belongs to the group II “Hyphae corticis superioris raro simplicis, saepius ramosae”. According to our measurements conidia of A. aomoriana are (15.8) 16.5–[16.8]–17.1 (18.5) μm long (n=10) that is greater than mentioned by Hue (10–15 μm) and fully agree with those of A. verrucigera (Nordin et al. 2008, Paukov et al. 2016). The spores of the specimen are mainly not ripe but developed ones are 16.0–20.0 × 9.0–10.5 μm (n=5). This and the next species were described from the northernmost part of Honshu Island. Aspicilia verrucigera has not been included into the Checklist of Japanese lichens and allied fungi (Kurokawa & Kashiwadani 2006) and is reported here as new to Japan.

description: We study selected properties of Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) events as inferred from their associated radio emissions. We used a catalogue of 115 SEP events that consists of entries of proton intensity enhancements at one AU, with complete coverage over solar cycle 23, based on high-energy (~68 MeV) protons from SOHO/ERNE and we calculated the proton release time at the Sun using velocity dispersion analysis (VDA). After an initial rejection of cases with unrealistic VDA path lengths, we assembled composite radio spectra for the remaining events using data from ground-based and space-borne radio-spectrographs. For every event we registered the associated radio emissions and we divided the events in groups according to their associated radio emissions. The proton release was found to be most often accompanied by both type III and II radio bursts, but a good association percentage was also registered in cases accompanied by type IIIs only. The worst association was found for the cases with type II only association. These radio association percentages support the idea that both flare- and shock-resident particle release processes are observed in high-energy proton events. In cases of type III-associated events we extended our study to the timings between the type III radio emission, the proton release, and the electron release as inferred from VDA based on Wind/3DP 20-646 keV data. Typically, the protons are released after the start of the associated type III bursts and simultaneously or before the release of energetic electrons. For the cases with type II radio association we found that the distribution of the proton release heights had a maximum at ~2.5 Rs. Most (69%) of the flares associated to our SEP events were located at the western hemisphere, with a peak within the well-connected region of 50-60 deg western longitude.

 Aspicilia owaniana was placed by Hue into the same group with A. verrucigera. The spores of the former species are (17.0) 18.9–[19.3]–19.7 (21.0) × (9.0) 10.0–[10.4]–10.8 (13.0) μm and conidia are (15.0) 16.6–[17.0]–17.4 (21.0) μm, which agree with those of A. verrucigera. The specimen differs from the type of A. verrucigera by its thicker, lighter and more continuous thallus (Fig. 1F), however similarly looking specimens of A. verrucigera, known from Scandinavia, are kept in UPS, H and LE.

Effects of Diagnostic Labeling on Psychological Wellbeing and Quality of Life - A Systematic Review
Creators: name: Mustelin, Linda
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Background: Reducing the burden of suffering caused by preventable diseases in populations is a central goal in public health. Screening is a prevention strategy the aim of which is to identify pre-symptomatic conditions, thus enabling earlier intervention in the hope to reduce morbidity and mortality. Yet screening may also cause harm, one of which is the psychological effects of receiving a diagnosis - diagnostic labeling. Aim: To conduct a systematic review of studies assessing psychological state after a diagnosis of either prostate cancer or abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Method: A comprehensive literature search of studies published from 2002 to 2015 was conducted. Main inclusion criteria were that study participants had recently been diagnosed with either prostate cancer or AAA and their psychological state was assessed. Randomized controlled trials, observational cohort studies, cross-sectional studies, and qualitative studies were eligible. All studies were critically appraised and reviewed by at least 2 trained investigators. Disagreements were resolved by a third senior investigator. Results: Forty studies were included in the analysis. All eight qualitative studies on both prostate cancer and AAA showed some evidence of adverse psychological effect of detection of the condition. The results of the 32 quantitative studies were more mixed, with approximately half of the studies suggesting presence of psychological problems in newly diagnosed individuals. For a third of the studies the presence of psychological problems could not be conclusively evaluated due to study design (lack of comparison group) and presentation of the results (average scores only). Conclusions: Few studies were designed to evaluate the effect of receiving a diagnosis of prostate cancer or AAA. The results suggest that diagnostic labeling may cause some degree of psychological harm in at least some individuals; more research is needed to better estimate the frequency and severity of these harms. Labeling is a potential psychological harm that should be considered when planning screening programs.

description: Ethical reasoning is imperative for the protection of human subjects enrolled in a clinical trial, as all biomedical and behavioral research involving human subjects is based on trust. Research involving human subjects can range from public health initiatives to randomized controlled trials. It is important to remember that clinical research is still research by nature meaning that it is experimental and therefore results may prove to be non-beneficial. However, researchers should approach a clinical trial with the intent to benefit as an underlying ethical principle, and always apply the tenets of the Belmont Report—respect for persons, beneficence and justice. Ethics surrounding clinical research are vital to public health, especially when conducting trials in an international setting.

We give two different polynomial-time algorithms testing the $k$-binomial equivalence of two words.

description: Aspicilia microsporeta Hue (1910: 80)
 Type (lectotype, designated here):— KOREA. Fusan, May 1906, R. P. Faurie 12 (LE L-7531!, isolectotype BM 001107785 [digital photograph!]).
 The specimens of Aspicilia geographica and A. microsporeta are very similar (Fig. 1G, H) but Hue does not discuss the reason why did he separate these species. The most reasonable version, which is also marked in the name, is smaller spores of the latter. Our measurements (10.0) 11.4–[11.6]–11.9 (13.2) × (5.0) 6.1–[6.3]–6.6 (7.9) (n=10) in A. geographica and (9.0) 10.1–[10.4]–10.6 (11.8) × (5.0) 5.5–[5.8]–6.0 (6.6) (n=10) in A. microsporeta do not support this difference. Both specimens contain atranorin and confluentic acid, have N+ pinkish epihymenium, J+ medulla and therefore belong to Lecanora oreinoides. The species is widely distributed in the Pacific region (Rambold 1989) and has recently been found in Korea.

description: Yang-Baxter sigma models, proposed by Klimcik and Delduc-Magro-Vicedo, have been recognized as a powerful framework for studying integrable deformations of two-dimensional non-linear sigma models. In this short article, as an important generalization, we review a non-integrable sigma model in the Yang-Baxter sigma model approach based on [arXiv:1406.2249]. In particular, we discuss a family of deformations of the 5D Sasaki-Einstein manifold $T^{1,1}$, instead of the standard deformations of the $5$-sphere S$^5$. For this purpose, we first describe a novel construction of $T^{1,1}$ as a supercoset, and provide a physical interpretation of this construction from viewpoint of the dual Klebanov-Witten field theory. Secondly, we consider a $3$-parameter deformation of $T^{1,1}$ by using classical $r$-matrices satisfying the classical Yang--Baxter equation (CYBE). The resulting metric and NS-NS two-form completely agree with the ones previously obtained via TsT (T-dual -- shift -- T-dual) transformations, and contain the Lunin-Maldacena background as a special case. Our result indicates that what we refer to as the gravity/CYBE(Classical Yang-Baxter Equation) correspondence can be extended beyond integrable cosets.

Complex network based techniques to identify extreme events and (sudden) transitions in spatio-temporal systems

description: We present here two promising techniques for the application of the complex network approach to continuous spatio-temporal systems that have been developed in the last decade and show large potential for future application and development of complex systems analysis. First, we discuss the transforming of a time series from such systems to a complex network. The natural approach is to calculate the recurrence matrix and interpret such as the adjacency matrix of an associated complex network, called recurrence network. Using complex network measures, such as transitivity coefficient, we demonstrate that this approach is very efficient for identifying qualitative transitions in observational data, e.g., when analyzing paleoclimate regime transitions. Second, we demonstrate the use of directed spatial networks constructed from spatio-temporal measurements of such systems that can be derived from the synchronized-in-time occurrence of extreme events in different spatial regions. Although there are many possibilities to investigate such spatial networks, we present here the new measure of network divergence and how it can be used to develop a prediction scheme of extreme rainfall events.

Testing the Relationship Between Emotion Dysregulation and Problem Gambling - A Preregistered Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Creators: name: Angus, Douglas
name: Kelley, Nicholas
Publisher: name: Open Science Framework
Year: 2022

description: Emotional dysregulation has been hypothesized to be one pathway by which problem gambling can develop and be maintained, and the harmful consequences of problem gambling may also contribute to emotional dysregulation. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to critically evaluate and synthesize the evidence for a relationship between emotion dysregulation and problem gambling severity. This review will estimate the association between two aspects of emotion dysregulation and problem gambling: 1) individual differences in the use of emotion regulation strategies that differ in their timing and associated cognitive and behavioral consequences (e.g., suppression, reappraisal, rumination), and 2) individual differences in overall emotion regulation ease/difficulty. We, like other researchers, consider these to be distinct but related ways of conceptualizing emotion dysregulation. The former refers to the specific method which is used to up- or downregulate emotions, while the latter refers to the relative ease with which an individual is able to respond to and regulate their emotional responses. In addition, this review will also explore the extent to which these associations are moderated by sample characteristics (e.g., treatment status, gender, age), emotion dysregulation constructs and sub-scales, and study context (e.g., data collection method, publication year, risk of bias).
Outcomes among Octogenarians and Nonagenarians in a Contemporary Cardiac Intensive Care Unit Do Not Differ Based on Age Alone
Creators: name: Hartsell, Sydney
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: Background: Cardiac Intensive Care Units (CICUs) are understudied, yet are facing a growing demand for resources and an aging, increasingly complex patient population. The clinical characteristics and outcomes of a very elderly (age ≥80 years) CICU population in the United States has never before been described relative to a younger population. A better understanding of this patient population could improve the quality of care for patients of all ages with critical cardiovascular illness.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed a prospectively-collected database of consecutive CICU patients admitted to our institution. This included 670 patients from Dec 2012 to Mar 2014 who were then stratified into 2 groups based upon age: <80 and ≥80 years. Demographic, clinical and laboratory characteristics were collected, along with resource use. Multiple regression was used to analyze length of stay and mortality during the CICU stay and index hospital admission.Results: There were significantly more Caucasians in the very elderly cohort (75% vs. 54%, p<0.001). Comorbidities, admission diagnoses, and rates of interventions were generally similar by age. Very elderly patients were significantly less likely to be discharged to home (63% vs 85%, p<0.001). Despite significantly higher illness severity scores among patients aged 80 and older, there were no significant adjusted age-based differences in length of stay nor morbidity. Conclusion: We found that very elderly CICU patients did not differ significantly in terms of cardiovascular risk profile, resource utilization, or short-term mortality, compared to a younger cohort of CICU patients. Our findings indicate that age over 80 years alone should not be a determining factor when predicting outcomes or making triage and treatment decisions in this population. However, our findings need to be replicated beyond a single center to make confident conclusions about the wider American CICU population.
