description: The study identified causes of conflicts, settlement pattern of pastoral farmers and analyzed the influence of livelihood diversification on conflicts between pastoralists and indigenous crop farmers. Using multistage sampling procedure to select 280 respondents, data were collected by means of structured interview schedule and analyzed by frequency distribution, Pearson Correlation and one-way ANOVA. Results show that high pressure on land (WMS = 4.87) and unfavourable land tenure system (4.56) mainly caused the conflicts. Crop and pastoral farmers had an average farm size of 2.9ha and 1.7ha, respectively. Majority (75.5%) of pastoralists were engaged in crop production, while only 12.1% of crop farmers were involved in livestock rearing. Also, 57.9% and 32.9% amongst crop farmers and 14.2% and 15.0% amongst pastoral farmers were involved in trading and commercial (vehicular) transport business, respectively. Furthermore, 16.4% and 7.9% of the pastoralists lived in mud and block- walled houses with corrugated iron sheets, respectively. Transformational approach was identified as most acceptable solution of conflict resolution by both crop and pastoral farmers. There was a significant difference between farm size (F=9.33) and educational level (F=8.93) of crop and pastoral farmers. There was also a significant relationship between cause of conflicts and pastoralists’ livelihood diversification (r=0.74) and number of years’ of pastoralists in settlement (r=0.29). The study concluded that increasing involvement of the pastoralists in crop production, involvement in other employment opportunities and erection of permanent building structure ignited unhealthy rivalry between the two groups.

description: We perform a thorough analysis of oscillation signals generated by one extra sterile neutrino, extending previous analyses done in simple limiting cases and including the effects of established oscillations among active neutrinos. We consider the following probes: solar, atmospheric, reactor and beam neutrinos, Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis (helium-4, deuterium), Cosmic Microwave Background, Large Scale Structure, supernovae, neutrinos from other astrophysical sources. We find no evidence for a sterile neutrino in present data, identify the still allowed regions, and study which future experiments can best probe them: sub-MeV solar experiments, more precise studies of CMB or BBN, future supernova explosions, etc. We discuss how the LSND hint is strongly disfavoured by the constraints of (standard) cosmology.

description: We report on a peculiar propagation of bosons loaded by a short Laguerre-Gaussian pulse in a nearly flat band of a lattice potential. Taking a system of exciton-polaritons in a kagome lattice as an example, we show that an initially localized condensate propagates in a specific direction in space if anisotropy is taken into account. This propagation consists of quantum jumps, collapses, and revivals of the whole compact states, and it persists given any direction of anisotropy. This property reveals its signatures in the tight-binding model and, surprisingly, it is much more pronounced in a continuous model. Quantum revivals are robust to the repulsive interaction and finite lifetime of the particles. Since no magnetic field or spin-orbit interaction is required, this system provides a new kind of easily implementable optical logic.

description: This study investigated managerial information needs of members of National Cotton Association of Nigeria (NACOTTAN) in Ogun state. The study was carried out in three selected zones with NACOTTAN presence namely; Ijaka-oke, Imala and Iwoye-ketu . A sample size of 88 respondents was used for the study. Data was collected through questionnaires and was analysed using descriptive statistics. Results reveal that the mean age of respondents was 50.5 years, while 51.2% of the respondents were above 50 years and 32.3% had no formal education. The major constraints affecting the association were insincerity of executives on accountability ( X =3.73), unstable market price of cotton ( X = 3.66) and low level of technology ( X = 3.50). Farmers’ educational status was significantly associated with managerial information needs (χ2=13.14, p=0.04) while, significant difference existed in respondents’ managerial information needs across selected zones (F=11.78, P=0.01). Study concluded that NACOTTAN members had high managerial information needs. Therefore the association members need to improve on their activities, for the association’s managerial information needs to be met.

description: G321.3-3.9 was first identified as a partial shell at radio frequencies a few decades ago. Although it continued to be observed, no additional studies were undertaken until recently. In this paper we present results from a large selection of radio and X-ray data that cover the position of G321.3-3.9. We confirmed G321.3-3.9 as a new supernova remnant (SNR) using data collected by several radio surveys, spanning a frequency range from 200 to 2300 MHz. Stacked eROSITA data from four consecutive all-sky surveys (eRASS:4) provide spectro-imaging information in the energy band 0.2 - 8.0 keV. G321.3-3.9 has an elliptical shape with major and minor axes of approximately 1.7 deg x 1.1 deg. From CHIPASS and S-PASS data, we calculate a spectral index α = -0.8 +- 0.2, consistent with synchrotron emission from an expanding shell in the radiative phase. The eROSITA data show an X-ray diffuse structure filling almost the entire radio shell. Based on our spectral analysis, we found the temperature to be approximately 0.6 keV and the column absorption density about 10^21 cm^-2. Comparing this absorption density to optical extinction maps, we estimated the distance to fall within the range of (1.0 - 1.7) kpc, considering the 1σ uncertainty range.

description: The upcoming industrial revolution requires deployment of critical wireless sensor networks for automation and monitoring purposes. However, the reliability of the wireless communication is rendered unpredictable by mobile elements in the communication environment such as humans or mobile robots which lead to dynamically changing radio environments. Changes in the wireless channel can be monitored with frequent pilot transmission. However, that would stress the battery life of sensors. In this work a new wireless channel estimation technique, Veni Vidi Dixi, VVD, is proposed. VVD leverages the redundant information in depth images obtained from the surveillance cameras in the communication environment and utilizes Convolutional Neural Networks CNNs to map the depth images of the communication environment to complex wireless channel estimations. VVD increases the wireless communication reliability without the need for frequent pilot transmission and with no additional complexity on the receiver. The proposed method is tested by conducting measurements in an indoor environment with a single mobile human. Up to authors best knowledge our work is the first to obtain complex wireless channel estimation from only depth images without any pilot transmission. The collected wireless trace, depth images and codes are publicly available.

description: In 1985, Callan and Harvey showed a view of gauge anomaly as a missing current into an extra-dimension, and the total contribution, including the Chern-Simons current in the bulk, is conserved. However in their computation, the edge and bulk contributions are separately evaluated and their cross correlations, which should be relevant at boundary, are simply ignored. This issue has been solved in many approaches. In this work, we revisit this issue with a complete set of eigenstates of free domain-wall Hamiltonian and give the systematic evaluation, easy to take in the higher mass correction and extend to the higher dimension.

description: We present the idea of using the holonomy along a line of a constrained instanton solution (an approximate solution of the Euclidean equations of motion subject to a constraint) of an $\rm SU(2)$ Yang-Mills-Higgs theory to approximate the Skyrmion solution in a chiral model with massive pions. The fact that the gauge field acquires a nonzero mass due to the Higgs mechanism implies that a constrained instanton decays exponentially far from its center, and so does the Skyrmion configuration that it generates via the Atiyah-Manton construction. This is precisely the desired behavior at large distances for the true Skyrmion solutions when the pion mass is included.

description: In a choice experiment, when respondents are not given the opportunity to choose none of the options offered in a choice set, the choices can be considered forced. In this study of visits to Hawaiian beaches, we adopt a dual-response choice experiment that allows a comparison between forced and unforced choices while avoiding the possible confounding effect of choice set complexity found in previous research. The results suggest that individual willingness to pay is different in forced and unforced choice sets. Joint tests for parameter equality provide evidence to support the use of unforced choice designs.
title: The Development and Effectiveness of GNVQs: Using Engineering as a Case Study.
Creators: name: Trinder, Michael John
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2000

description: This thesis is an investigation into the development and effectiveness of General National Vocational Qualifications (GNVQ), using the Engineering GNVQ as a case study. As part of this investigation I have examined the provision of vocational education and training (VET) since the start of the Industrial Revolution. There has been a continuing problem over the years in supplying enough appropriately trained personnel for the engineering industry in this country.

 Government policy has been, for most of the time, to leave training policy to the companies themselves. It is only in the second half of the twentieth century that governments have become involved, through statutes, in the provision of training for industry. In the 1970s and 80s there was also a political reason for providing training schemes for young people, which was growing youth unemployment.

 The method of research chosen for this investigation was:
 1. Historical Research. This has involved examining the literature to examine the history of training in this country, though primary sources such Acts of Parliament, White Papers, and Official Reports, and secondary sources through examining the literature base.

 2. Interviews and Questionnaires. This part of the research was carried out in two colleges in southern England, using both students and staff in these colleges. By using two methods I was able to confirm the results of the research by triangulation.

 The results have shown that there has been a continual lack of co-ordination in training between companies and the government until recent times, and the GNVQ was one of the methods introduced to break down the barriers between academic and vocational education. The results have also shown that the effects of the GNVQ to improve vocational education have been limited, and as a consequence changes are being implemented to the GNVQ to improve its record.

description: Atiyah-Singer index theorem on a lattice without boundary is well understood owing to the seminal work by Hasenfratz et al. But its extension to the system with boundary (the so-called Atiyah- Patodi-Singer index theorem), which plays a crucial role in T-anomaly cancellation between bulk- and edge-modes in 3+1 dimensional topological matters, is known only in the continuum theory and no lattice realization has been made so far. In this work, we try to non-perturbatively define an alternative index from the lattice domain-wall fermion in 3+1 dimensions. We will show that this new index in the continuum limit, converges to the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer index defined on a manifold with boundary, which coincides with the surface of the domain-wall.

description: Assuming that a non-standard neutral Higgs with an enhanced Yukawa coupling to a bottom quark is observed at future hadron experiments, we propose a method for a better understanding of the Higgs sector. Our procedure is based on "counting" the number of events with heavy jets (where "heavy" stands for a c or b jet) versus b jets, in the final state of processes in which the Higgs is produced in association with a single high p_T c or b jet. We show that an observed signal of the type proposed, at either the Tevatron or the LHC, will rule out the popular two Higgs doublet model of type II as well as its supersymmetric version - the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), and may provide new evidence in favor of some more exotic multi Higgs scenarios. As an example, we show that in a version of a two Higgs doublet model which naturally accounts for the large mass of the top quark, our signal can be easily detected at the LHC within that framework. We also find that such a signal may be observable at the upgraded Tevatron RunIII, if the neutral Higgs in this model has a mass around 100 GeV and \tanβ> 50 and if the efficiency for distinguishing a c jet from a light jet will reach the level of 50%.

Omega-categories and chain complexes

Subjects: subject: Category Theory (math.CT)

subject: 18D05

description: There are several ways to construct omega-categories from combinatorial objects such as pasting schemes or parity complexes. We make these constructions into a functor on a category of chain complexes with additional structure, which we call augmented directed complexes. This functor from augmented directed complexes to omega-categories has a left adjoint, and the adjunction restricts to an equivalence on a category of augmented directed complexes with good bases. The omega-categories equivalent to augmented directed complexes with good bases include the omega-categories associated to globes, simplexes and cubes; thus the morphisms between these omega-categories are determined by morphisms between chain complexes. It follows that the entire theory of omega-categories can be expressed in terms of chain complexes; in particular we describe the biclosed monoidal structure on omega-categories and calculate some internal homomorphism objects.

description: We study analytically and numerically the noise-induced transition between an absorbing and an oscillatory state in a Duffing oscillator subject to multiplicative, Gaussian white noise. We show in a non-perturbative manner that a stochastic bifurcation occurs when the Lyapunov exponent of the linearised system becomes positive. We deduce from a simple formula for the Lyapunov exponent the phase diagram of the stochastic Duffing oscillator. The behaviour of physical observables, such as the oscillator's mean energy, is studied both close to and far from the bifurcation.

Lyndon words versus inverse Lyndon words: queries on suffixes and bordered words

description: Lyndon words have been largely investigated and showned to be a useful tool to prove interesting combinatorial properties of words. In this paper we state new properties of both Lyndon and inverse Lyndon factorizations of a word $w$, with the aim of exploring their use in some classical queries on $w$. The main property we prove is related to a classical query on words. We prove that there are relations between the length of the longest common extension (or longest common prefix) $lcp(x,y)$ of two different suffixes $x,y$ of a word $w$ and the maximum length $\mathcal{M}$ of two consecutive factors of the inverse Lyndon factorization of $w$. More precisely, $\mathcal{M}$ is an upper bound on the length of $lcp(x,y)$. This result is in some sense stronger than the compatibility property, proved by Mantaci, Restivo, Rosone and Sciortino for the Lyndon factorization and here for the inverse Lyndon factorization. Roughly, the compatibility property allows us to extend the mutual order between local suffixes of (inverse) Lyndon factors to the suffixes of the whole word. A main tool used in the proof of the above results is a property that we state for factors $m_i$ with nonempty borders in an inverse Lyndon factorization: a nonempty border of $m_i$ cannot be a prefix of the next factor $m_{i+1}$. The last property we prove shows that if two words share a common overlap, then their Lyndon factorizations can be used to capture the common overlap of the two words. The above results open to the study of new applications of Lyndon words and inverse Lyndon words in the field of string comparison.

description: The circumgalactic medium (CGM) provides the material needed for galaxy formation and influences galaxy evolution. The hot ($T>10^6K$) CGM is poorly detected around galaxies with stellar masses ($M_*$) lower than $3\times10^{11}M_\odot$ due to the low surface brightness. We used the X-ray data from the first four SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Surveys (eRASS:4). Based on the SDSS spectroscopic survey and halo-based group finder algorithm, we selected central galaxies with spectroscopic redshifts of $z_{\rm spec}<0.2$ and stellar masses of $10.0<\log(M_*/M_\odot)<11.5$ (85,222 galaxies) -- or halo masses of $11.5<\log(M_{\rm 200m}/M_\odot)<14.0$ (125,512 galaxies). By stacking the X-ray emission around galaxies, masking the detected X-ray point sources and carefully modeling the X-ray emission from the unresolved active galactic nuclei (AGN) and X-ray binaries (XRB), we obtain the X-ray emission from the hot CGM. We detected the X-ray emission around MW-mass and more massive central galaxies extending up to the virial radius ($R_{\rm vir}$). We used a $β$ model to describe the X-ray surface brightness profile and found $β=0.43^{+0.10}_{-0.06}\,(0.37^{+0.04}_{-0.02})$ for MW-mass (M31-mass) galaxies.We estimated the baryon budget of the hot CGM and obtained a value that is lower than the prediction of $Λ$CDM cosmology, indicating significant gas depletion in these halos. We extrapolated the hot CGM profile measured within $R_{\rm vir}$ to larger radii and found that within $\approx 3 R_{\rm vir}$, the baryon budget is close to the $Λ$CDM cosmology prediction. Our results set a firm footing for the presence of the hot CGM around such galaxies. These measurements constitute a new benchmark for galaxy evolution models and possible implementations of feedback processes therein.

description: The insurance model when the amount of claims depends on the state of the insured person (healthy, ill, or dead) and claims are connected in a Markov chain is investigated. The signed compound Poisson approximation is applied to the aggregate claims distribution after $n\in \mathbb {N}$ periods. The accuracy of order $O(n^{-1})$ and $O(n^{-1/2})$ is obtained for the local and uniform norms, respectively. In a particular case, the accuracy of estimates in total variation and non-uniform estimates are shown to be at least of order $O(n^{-1})$. The characteristic function method is used. The results can be applied to estimate the probable loss of an insurer to optimize an insurance premium.

description: Understanding how the properties of galaxies relate to the properties of the hot circum-galactic medium (CGM) around them can constrain galaxy evolution models. We measured the X-ray luminosity of the hot CGM based on the surface brightness profiles of central galaxy samples measured from Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG)/eROSITA all-sky survey data. We related the X-ray luminosity to the galaxies' stellar and halo mass, and we compared the observed relations to the self-similar model and intrinsic (i.e., not forward-modeled) output of the IllustrisTNG, EAGLE, and SIMBA simulations. The average hot CGM X-ray luminosity ($L_{\rm X,CGM}$) correlates with the galaxy's stellar mass ($M_*$). It increases from $(1.6 \pm 2.1)\times10^{39} \rm erg\,s^{-1}$ to $(3.4 \pm 0.3)\times10^{41} \rm erg\,s^{-1}$, when $\log(M_*)$ increases from 10.0 to 11.5. A power law describes the correlation as $\log(L_{\rm X,CGM})= (2.4\pm 0.1)\times \log(M_*)+(14.6\pm1.5)$. The hot CGM X-ray luminosity as a function of halo mass is measured within $\log(M_{\rm 500c})=11.3-13.7$, extending our knowledge of the scaling relation by more than two orders of magnitude. $L_{\rm X,CGM}$ increases with $M_{\rm 500c}$ from $(3.0 \pm 1.6)\times10^{39}\ \rm erg\,s^{-1}$ at $\log(M_{\rm 500c})=11.3$ to $(1.3 \pm 0.1)\times10^{42}\ \rm erg\,s^{-1}$ at $\log(M_{\rm 500c})=13.7$. The relation follows a power law of $\log(L_{\rm X,CGM})= (1.32\pm 0.05)\times \log(M_{\rm 500c})+(24.1\pm0.7)$. Our observations highlight the necessity of non-gravitational processes at the galaxy group scale while suggesting these processes are sub-dominant at the galaxy scale. We show that the outputs of current cosmological galaxy simulations generally align with the observational results uncovered here but with possibly important deviations in selected mass ranges.

description: We present laboratory rotational spectroscopy of five isomers of cyanoindene (2-, 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-cyanoindene) using a cavity Fourier-transform microwave spectrometer operating between 6-40 GHz. Based on these measurements, we report the detection of 2-cyanoindene (1H-indene-2-carbonitrile; 2-C$_9$H$_7$CN) in GOTHAM line survey observations of the dark molecular cloud TMC-1 using the Green Bank Telescope at centimeter wavelengths. Using a combination of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), spectral stacking, and matched filtering techniques, we find evidence for the presence of this molecule at the 6.3$σ$ level. This provides the first direct observation of the ratio of a cyano-substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) to its pure hydrocarbon counterpart, in this case indene, in the same source. We discuss the possible formation chemistry of this species, including why we have only detected one of the isomers in TMC-1. We then examine the overall hydrocarbon:CN-substituted ratio across this and other simpler species, as well as compare to those ratios predicted by astrochemical models. We conclude that while astrochemical models are not yet sufficiently accurate to reproduce absolute abundances of these species, they do a good job at predicting the ratios of hydrocarbon:CN-substituted species, further solidifying -CN tagged species as excellent proxies for their fully-symmetric counterparts.

title: The use of secondary spatial transforms in near field antenna measurements.
Creators: name: McCormick, John
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1999

description: The research detailed in this report was conducted within the near field scanner facility of the DERA at Funtington in West Sussex. The purpose of the research was to increase the capability of the near field antenna measurement system so that the range of antennas that could be accurately tested within the facility could be increased. As no extra funding for the purchase of additional equipment was possible this increase in capability had to be achieved via more experimental and innovative use being made of the existing instrumentation systems.

 The main aims of the project were to use the availability of the 9 CNC control axes in the system to synthetically increase the extent of the scan plane and subsequently to assess the accuracy of the measurements using a novel statistical interpretation of the nature of the antenna pattern. Both by inspection and via a statistical classification procedure the extent of the accuracy of the measurements was confirmed and the additional error terms associated with the measurement technique identified and assessed.

title: Diagnostically significant antigens of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum: identification, serological efficacy, and characterisation of the major antigenic determinants.
Creators: name: Grace, Christopher
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2000

description: The antibody response to native antigens derived from Treponema pallidum (Nichols strain) was investigated by western blotting. In early primary disease the responses were most frequently to the major immunodominant antigen, TpN47, and the flagellar proteins. Strong responses to several other lipoproteins, especially TpN44.5, TpN17 and TpN15, were observed in all other disease stages. Generally, this confirmed the importance of TpN47, TpN44.5, TpN17, and TpN15 as diagnostlcally significant antigen.

 Western blot analysis using recombinant proteins showed the four major lipoproteins, TpN47, TpN44.5, TpN17, and TpN15, to be important disease specific antigens, with TpN47 particularly reactive in early primary infections. TpN24-28 was found to be disease specific but only reactive with relatively few strongly positive sera, and so of relatively little diagnostic significance. Further analysis of the other recombinant proteins by enzyme immunoassay confirmed them as important diagnostic antigens, but no single recombinant protein was capable of detecting all cases of serologically confirmed syphilis. However, an enzyme immunoassay using a solid phase coated with a combination of all four major lipoproteins proved highly specific and showed improved sensitivity over a commercially available enzyme immunoassay based on native antigens.

 Synthetic peptide epitope mapping studies of the four major lipoproteins showed that the antigenic sequences within these proteins were not simple linear epitopes. The complicated picture of several reactive regions across the proteins, each containing multiple epitopes, was typical of the type of responses seen when a substantial part of the antibody response is directed towards conformational epitopes.

 Further analysis of the epitopes present within the four major lipoproteins using phage display isolated several long protein sequences which represented high affinity antibody binding motifs. The size of the sequences suggests that the retention by the solid phase is due either to conformational epitopes, or to a mixture of epitope types producing high affinity binding through multipoint attachment. The sequences identified have potential as antigens for use in diagnostic tests.

description: Contacting metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes by palladium (Pd) affords highly reproducible ohmic contacts and allows for detailed elucidation of ballistic transport in metallic nanotubes. The Pd ohmic contacts are more reliable than titanium (Ti) previously used for ballistic nanotube devices. In contrast, Pt contacts appear to give non-ohmic contacts to metallic nanotubes. For both ohmic and non-ohmic contacts, the length of the nanotube under the metal contact area is electrically turned off. Transport occurs from metal to nanotube at the edges of the contacts. Measurements with large numbers of Pd contacted nanotube samples reveal that the mean free path for defect scattering in SWNTs grown by chemical vapor deposition can be up to 4 microns. The mean free paths for acoustic phonon scattering are on the order of 500 nm at room temperature and >> 4 microns at low temperatures.

description: In 2015 Cristian-Silviu Radu designed an algorithm to detect identities of a class studied by Ramanujan and Kolberg. This class includes the famous identities by Ramanujan which provide a witness to the divisibility properties of $p(5n+4),$ $p(7n+5)$. We give an implementation of this algorithm using Mathematica. The basic theory is first described, and an outline of the algorithm is briefly given, in order to describe the functionality and utility of our package. We thereafter give multiple examples of applications to recent work in partition theory. In many cases we have used our package to derive alternate proofs of various identities or congruences; in other cases we have improved previously established identities, and in at least one case we have confirmed a standing conjecture.
