description: The consequences of several microscopic interactions on the photoemission spectra of crystalline organic semiconductors (OSC) are studied theoretically. It is argued that their relative roles can be disentangled by analyzing both their temperature and their momentum/energy dependence. Our analysis shows that the polaronic thermal band narrowing, that is the foundation of most theories of electrical transport in OSC, is inconsistent in the range of microscopic parameters appropriate for these materials. An alternative scenario is proposed to explain the experimental trends.

description: The line graphs are clustered and assortative. They share these topological features with some social networks. We argue that this similarity reveals the cliquey character of the social networks. In the model proposed here, a social network is the line graph of an initial network of families, communities, interest groups, school classes and small companies. These groups play the role of nodes, and individuals are represented by links between these nodes. The picture is supported by the data on the LiveJournal network of about 8 x 10^6 people. In particular, sharp maxima of the observed data of the degree dependence of the clustering coefficient C(k) are associated with cliques in the social network.

Neuropsychology’s machine assistant : predicting functional outcomes with machine learning
Creators: name: Armstrong, Graham
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Stroke affects 50,000 Canadians every year and millions of people worldwide. Stroke occurs when the brain tissue is damaged by being deprived of essential compounds from the blood stream. Patients with stroke frequently experience a variety of impairments including prolonged cognitive deficits. Neuropsychological assessment is the most effective way of measuring the nature and magnitude of cognitive impairments. One of the main functions of neuropsychological assessment in a rehabilitation setting is to inform clinical decision-making regarding patient treatment trajectories. Recommendations provided by a neuropsychologist depend on the utility of the neuropsychological battery for predicting the patient’s levels of daily functioning. Daily functioning assesses an individual’s ability to complete tasks of daily life. However, this research has lacked the necessary specificity to capture the comprehensive association between cognition and functional abilities. Further, domain specific score practices, regularly employed by clinicians, can lead to substantial levels of misclassification. The goal of the present study was to evaluate machine learning multiple linear regression relative to ordinary least squares (OLS) on a multivariate level as well as at the level of individual predictors, the clinical utility of a comprehensive neuropsychological battery, lastly the potential impact of an adjunctive clinical decision algorithm in a rehabilitation setting was examined. Data were taken from 167 neuropsychological assessments from patients with stroke who participated in rehabilitation at Kelowna General Hospital. The results indicate that a broad neuropsychological assessment accounts for a significant level of post stroke daily functioning scores. Machine learning is a more powerful tool for identifying individual cognitive predictors of stroke than traditional OLS methods. Machine learning did not provide incremental improvement over OLS methods at a multivariate level. The adjunctive clinical decision-making algorithm did not provide sufficient clinical decision input in this setting.

description: We study the classical and quantum models of a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmology, coupled to a perfect fluid, in the context of the scalar-metric gravity. Using the Schutz' representation for the perfect fluid, we show that, under a particular gauge choice, it may lead to the identification of a time parameter for the corresponding dynamical system. It is shown that the evolution of the universe based on the classical cosmology represents a late time power law expansion coming from a big-bang singularity in which the scale factor goes to zero while the scalar field blows up. Moreover, this formalism gives rise to a Schrödinger-Wheeler-DeWitt (SWD) equation for the quantum-mechanical description of the model under consideration, the eigenfunctions of which can be used to construct the wave function of the universe. We use the resulting wave function in order to investigate the possibility of the avoidance of classical singularities due to quantum effects by means of the many-worlds and ontological interpretation of quantum cosmology.

LOR 3.0 – Paradigmaskifte i lærings- og kunnskapsformidling? : LOR ved NTNU
Creators: name: Rørvik, Arnt Richard
Publisher: name: Norges teknisk-naturvitenskapelige universitet
Year: 2019

description: Det beskrives hvordan læringsressurslagre (LOR) har utviklet seg fra å være integrerte lagrings- og delingsfunksjoner mellom interne kunder av hver enkelt leverandørs elektroniske læringssystemers (eLSer/LMSer), noe som her kalles LOR 1.0, til å bli det som foreslås betegnet som LOR 2.0 i form av frittstående LOR som kan nåes fra og benyttes i flere typer eLS. Det foreslås videre å kalle frittstående LOR som samtidig fungerer som enveis- eller toveis nav til og/eller fra ulike tilknyttede læringsressurskilder (eksempelvis OER) som LOR 3.0.

LOR 2.0 er de frittstående læringsressurslagrene, som kan brukes fra mer enn ett eLS/LMS. For NTNUs LOR, Bibsys DLR, er det tilgang til relevante søk i egne og samarbeidende organisasjoners ressurser, og «pek og velg» av læringsressurser, direkte fra DLR og inn i Blackboard Learn, Instructure Canvas etc.

Så hva er LOR 3.0? Dette er også frittstående læringsressurslagre, men har i tillegg rikelig med koplinger til ressurser og verktøy, nasjonalt og internasjonalt.

DLR, som NTNU har valgt som LOR, er på god vei til å bli et LOR 3.0. Det mangler noen koplinger ut i den store, vide verden ennå, men basisen er klargjort. Figuren «DLR – endeløse muligheter!» forsøker å presentere litt av grunntanken i DLR som LOR, og utviklingsmulighetene.

description: The framework of psi-calculi extends the pi-calculus with nominal datatypes for data structures and for logical assertions and conditions. These can be transmitted between processes and their names can be statically scoped as in the standard pi-calculus. Psi-calculi can capture the same phenomena as other proposed extensions of the pi-calculus such as the applied pi-calculus, the spi-calculus, the fusion calculus, the concurrent constraint pi-calculus, and calculi with polyadic communication channels or pattern matching. Psi-calculi can be even more general, for example by allowing structured channels, higher-order formalisms such as the lambda calculus for data structures, and predicate logic for assertions. We provide ample comparisons to related calculi and discuss a few significant applications. Our labelled operational semantics and definition of bisimulation is straightforward, without a structural congruence. We establish minimal requirements on the nominal data and logic in order to prove general algebraic properties of psi-calculi, all of which have been checked in the interactive theorem prover Isabelle. Expressiveness of psi-calculi significantly exceeds that of other formalisms, while the purity of the semantics is on par with the original pi-calculus.

description: This is the first paper of a series devoted to the Lambda Orionis star-forming region, from the X-ray perspective, which will provide a comprehensive view of this complex region. In this paper we focus in uncovering the population of the central, young cluster Collinder 69 (C69), and in particular those diskless members not identified by previous near- and mid-infrared surveys, and to establish the X-ray luminosity function for the association. We have combined two exposures taken with the XMM-Newton satellite with an exhaustive data set of optical, near- and mid-infrared photometry to assess the membership of the X-ray sources based on color-color and color-magnitude diagrams, as well as other properties, such as effective temperatures, masses and bolometric luminosities. We detected a total of 164 X-ray sources, of which 66 are probable and possible cluster members. A total of 16 are newly identified probable members. The two XMM-Newton pointings east and west of the cluster center have allowed us to verify the heterogeneous spatial distribution of young stars, probably related to the large scale structure of the region. The disk fraction of the X-ray detected cluster sample is very low, close to 10%, in remarkable contrast to the low-mass stellar and substellar population (mostly undetected in X-rays) where the disk fraction reaches about 50%. The X-ray luminosity function of C69 provides support for an age of several Myr when compared with other well known young associations. With our improved cluster census we confirm previous reports on the untypically low disk fraction compared to other clusters of several Myr age. The different disk fractions of X-ray detected (essentially solar-like) and undetected (mostly low-mass stars and brown dwarfs) members can be understood as a consequence of a mass-dependence of the time-scale for disk evolution.

Numerical investigations on the interplay between heat transfer and turbulence in forced and natural convection
Creators: name: Zeraati Dizjeh, Shahab
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: The interplay between turbulence and heat transfer in forced and natural convection is investigated through multiple high-fidelity numerical simulations. The effects of heat transfer on generating fluctuations and turbulence are addressed by analyzing linear stability and transition in vertical buoyancy-driven flows in solar chimneys employing a direct numerical simulation approach. The stability equations are derived, and a finite-difference method is proposed to solve them. Solutions of the equations show that a range of disturbance waves may be amplified in the channel, and those that sustain the largest amplification have phase velocities equal to the peak velocity of the flow near the heated wall. The non-linear amplification of these disturbances is studied, and it is shown that they can trigger transition. Based on the results, the transition may decrease the flow rate due to the increased friction caused by enhanced cross-stream momentum exchange. The spatial growth of the disturbances is studied, and different types of vortical structures are identified. It is shown that temperature fluctuations are dominant in producing turbulence, and the advection of the surplus kinetic energy makes the flow more turbulent as it rises. The effects of turbulence on heat transfer are addressed by large eddy simulations of convective heat transfer enhancement in turbulent pipe flows via patterned surface textures. The textures intended to enhance heat transfer consist of ellipsoidal inward-facing elements, a wire coil, and spiral corrugations. The pressure loss and heat transfer enhancement within each textured pipe are reported, and it is shown that the best balance of heat transfer enhancement and pressure penalty occurs for the ellipsoidal elements. The mechanisms for the observed performance are explored via order-of-magnitude analysis of the first and second laws of thermodynamics. It is concluded that the textures that most efficiently enhance the heat transfer induce strong vortical structures and turbulent radial fluctuations in near-wall regions. The study reveals that enhancing the turbulence does not guarantee an efficient heat transfer enhancement. An efficient heat transfer augmentation can be achieved if the turbulence induces strong wall-normal motions in regions where the temperature gradient is high such as in the thermal boundary layer.
CRIRES spectroscopy and empirical line-by-line identification of FeH molecular absorption in an M dwarf

description: Molecular FeH provides a large number of sharp and isolated absorption lines that can be used to measure radial velocity, rotation, or magnetic field strength with high accuracy. Our aim is to provide an FeH atlas for M-type stars in the spectral region from 986 nm to 1077 nm (Wing-Ford band). To identify these lines in CRIRES spectra of the magnetically inactive, slowly rotating, M5.5 dwarf GJ1002, we calculated model spectra for the selected spectral region with theoretical FeH line data. In general this line list agrees with the observed data, but several individual lines differ significantly in position or in line strength. After identification of as many as possible FeH lines, we correct the line data for position and line strength to provide an accurate atlas of FeH absorption lines for use in high precision spectroscopy of low mass stars. For all lines, we use a Voigt function to obtain their positions and equivalent widths. Identification with theoretical lines is done by hand. For confirmation of the identified lines, we use statistical methods, cross- correlation techniques, and line intensities. Eventually, we were able to identify FeH lines from the (0, 0), (1, 0), (1, 1), (2, 1), (2, 2), (3, 2), and (4, 3) vibrational bands in the observed spectra and correct the positions of the lines if necessary. The deviations between theoretical and observed positions follow a normal distribution approximately around zero. In order to empirically correct the line strength, we determined Teff, instrumental broadening (rotational broadening) and a van der Waals enhancement factor for FeH lines in GJ1002. We also give scaling factors for the Einstein A values to correct the line strengths. With the identified lines, we derived rotational temperatures from line intensities for GJ1002. ... .

description: We present a simple mathematical framework for the description of the dynamics of glassy systems in terms of a random walk in a complex energy landscape pictured as a network of minima. We show how to use the tools developed for the study of dynamical processes on complex networks, in order to go beyond mean-field models that consider that all minima are connected to each other. We consider several possibilities for the transition rates between minima, and show that in all cases the existence of a glassy phase depends on a delicate interplay between the network's topology and the relationship between energy and degree of a minimum. Interestingly, the network's degree correlations and the details of the transition rates do not play any role in the existence (nor in the value) of the transition temperature, but have an impact only on more involved properties. For Glauber or Metropolis rates in particular, we find that the low-temperature phase can be further divided into two regions with different scaling properties of the average trapping time. Overall, our results rationalize and link the empirical findings about correlations between the energy of the minima and their degree, and should stimulate further investigations on this issue.

description: The use of information across populations is an attractive approach to increase the accuracy of genomic predictions for numerically small breeds and traits that are time-consuming and difficult to measure, such as male fertility in cattle. This study was conducted to evaluate genomic prediction of Jersey bull fertility using an across-country reference population combining records from the United States and Australia. The data set consisted of 1,570 US Jersey bulls with sire conception rate (SCR) records, 603 Australian Jersey bulls with semen fertility value (SFV) records and SNP genotypes for roughly 90,000 loci. Both SCR and SFV are evaluations of service sire fertility based on cow field data, and both are intended as phenotypic evaluations because the estimates include genetic and nongenetic effects. Within- and across-country genomic predictions were evaluated using univariate and bivariate genomic best linear unbiased prediction models. Predictive ability was assessed in 5-fold cross-validation using the correlation between observed and predicted fertility values and mean squared error of prediction. Within-country genomic predictions exhibited predictive correlations of around 0.28 and 0.02 for the United States and Australia, respectively. The Australian Jersey population is genetically diverse and small in size, so careful selection of the reference population by including only closely related animals (e.g., excluding New Zealand bulls, which is a less-related population) increased the predictive correlations up to 0.20. Notably, the use of bivariate models fitting all US Jersey records and the optimized Australian population resulted in predictive correlations around of 0.24 for SFV values, which is a relative increase in predictive ability of 20%. Conversely, for predicting SCR values, the use of an across-country reference population did not outperform the standard approach using pure US Jersey reference data set. Our findings indicate that genomic prediction of male fertility in dairy cattle is feasible, and the use of an across-country reference population would be beneficial when local populations are small and genetically diverse.

description: The use of information across populations is an attractive approach to increase the accuracy of genomic predictions for numerically small breeds and traits that are time-consuming and difficult to measure, such as male fertility in cattle. This study was conducted to evaluate genomic prediction of Jersey bull fertility using an across-country reference population combining records from the United States and Australia. The data set consisted of 1,570 US Jersey bulls with sire conception rate (SCR) records, 603 Australian Jersey bulls with semen fertility value (SFV) records and SNP genotypes for roughly 90,000 loci. Both SCR and SFV are evaluations of service sire fertility based on cow field data, and both are intended as phenotypic evaluations because the estimates include genetic and nongenetic effects. Within- and across-country genomic predictions were evaluated using univariate and bivariate genomic best linear unbiased prediction models. Predictive ability was assessed in 5-fold cross-validation using the correlation between observed and predicted fertility values and mean squared error of prediction. Within-country genomic predictions exhibited predictive correlations of around 0.28 and 0.02 for the United States and Australia, respectively. The Australian Jersey population is genetically diverse and small in size, so careful selection of the reference population by including only closely related animals (e.g., excluding New Zealand bulls, which is a less-related population) increased the predictive correlations up to 0.20. Notably, the use of bivariate models fitting all US Jersey records and the optimized Australian population resulted in predictive correlations around of 0.24 for SFV values, which is a relative increase in predictive ability of 20%. Conversely, for predicting SCR values, the use of an across-country reference population did not outperform the standard approach using pure US Jersey reference data set. Our findings indicate that genomic prediction of male fertility in dairy cattle is feasible, and the use of an across-country reference population would be beneficial when local populations are small and genetically diverse.

description: Magnetospheric accretion is an important process for a wide range of astrophysical systems, and may play a role in the formation of gas giant planets. Extending the formalism describing stellar magnetospheric accretion into the planetary regime, we demonstrate that magnetospheric processes may govern accretion onto young gas giants in the isolation phase of their development. Planets in the isolation phase have cleared out large gaps in their surrounding circumstellar disks, and settled into a quasi-static equilibrium with radii only modestly larger than their final sizes (i.e., $ r \sim 1.4 r_{\rm final}$). Magnetospheric accretion is less likely to play a role in a young gas giant's main accretion phase, when the planet's envelope is predicted to be much larger than the planet's Alfvén radius. For a fiducial 1 M$_J$ gas giant planet with a remnant isolation phase accretion rate of $\dot{M}_{\odot} =$ 10$^{-10} M_{\odot}{\rm yr}^{-1}=10^{-7}M_{J}{\rm yr}^{-1}$, the disk accretion will be truncated at $\sim 2.7r_J$ (with $r_J$ is Jupiter's radius) and drive the planet to rotate with a period of $\sim$7 hours. Thermal emission from planetary magnetospheric accretion will be difficult to observe; the most promising observational signatures may be non-thermal, such as gyrosynchrotron radiation that is clearly modulated at a period much shorter than the rotation period of the host star.

description: © 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. The association between dairy product consumption and biomarkers of inflammation, adipocytokines, and oxidative stress is poorly studied in children. Therefore, these associations were examined in a representative subsample of 1338 schoolchildren with a mean age of 11.5 (±0.7) years in the Healthy Growth Study. Information on dairy product consumption was collected by dietary recalls. Total dairy consumption was calculated by summing the intake of milk, yogurt, and cheese. Inflammatory markers, i.e., high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and adipocytokines, i.e., leptin, adiponectin, and the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were analysed. Due to the skewed distribution hs-CRP, IL-6, and leptin were log transformed. Multivariable regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, energy intake, physical activity, parental education, Tanner stage, and fat mass were used to assess the associations between consumption of total dairy, milk, yogurt, cheese, and markers of inflammation, adipocytokines, oxidative stress, and adiponectin−leptin ratio. Our results showed that milk consumption was inversely associated with leptin (β: −0.101; 95% CI: −0.177, −0.025, p = 0.009) and positively associated with the adiponectin−leptin ratio (β: 0.116; 95% CI: 0.020, 0.211; p = 0.018), while total dairy, cheese, and yogurt consumption were not associated with inflammatory, adipocytokine, or antioxidant markers. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm these results.

description: The short distance behavior of baryon-baryon potentials defined through Nambu-Bethe-Salpeter wave functions is investigated using the operator product expansion. In a previous analysis of the nucleon-nucleon case, corresponding to the SU(3) channels $27_s$ and $\overline{10}_a$, we argued that the potentials have a repulsive core. A new feature occurs for the case of baryons made up of three flavors: manifestly asymptotically attractive potentials appear in the singlet and octet channels. Attraction in the singlet channel was first indicated by quark model considerations, and recently been found in numerical lattice simulations. The latter have however not yet revealed asymptotic attraction in the octet channels; we give a speculative explanation for this apparent discrepancy.

description: Colimits that satisfy the Van Kampen condition have interesting exactness properties. We show that the elementary presentation of the Van Kampen condition is actually a characterisation of a universal property in the associated bicategory of spans. The main theorem states that Van Kampen cocones are precisely those diagrams in a category that induce bicolimit diagrams in its associated bicategory of spans, provided that the category has pullbacks and enough colimits.

The impact of investor-state arbitrations on foreign direct investment and domestic public opinion : evidence from FDI flows, elite interviews and a survey experiment
Creators: name: Burzo, Stefano
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is among the most studied phenomena in international economic relations and presents a dilemma: it can drive economic growth in recipient countries, but it may tempt governments to expropriate foreign investors to redistribute wealth. Scholars noted that when countries expropriate, they may suffer damages to their reputation as safe investment destinations, thereby discouraging future FDI, especially when investors lodge complaints at international institutions. In the dissertation, I leverage a multi-method approach to examine the economic and political consequences of investor-state disputes on FDI and domestic public opinion. I apply three different research methods to three different sources of evidence: bilateral FDI flows, original elite interviews and a survey experiment. Two chapters focus on reputational theories of FDI, which posit that investment arbitrations generate reputational cues which investors use for locational decisions. Most studies assume that arbitrations damage the trustworthiness of the recipient country, regardless of the outcome. Complementing the literature, in Chapter 1 I argue that when countries settle a dispute their reputation can improve, thereby influencing FDI, and present results from a statistical analysis of FDI flows. In Chapter 2, I leverage process-level evidence from original interviews to test and explore causal steps and observable implications derived from the assumptions of existing reputational theories. FDI can have salient economic and political consequences for voters, beyond governments and investors. In Chapter 3, I identify the factors influencing public preferences for government behavior in investor-state disputes and empirically examine them in a survey experiment fielded in the United States. The results show that citizens are more likely to support their government litigating the dispute (rather than settling it) when there were prior disputes with companies from the same partner country, or when the partner country is authoritarian. Other economic factors seem to have a lesser influence on public support, including concerns about jobs or the amount of investment. The dissertation contributes to the empirical literature on FDI, investment treaties and dispute settlement, and their economic and political impact. The findings can inform policy discussions on economic treaties, the international investment regime, and transparency in international investment practices.

description: This work presents a novel approach to describe spectral properties of graphene layers with well defined edges. We microscopically analyze the boundary problem for the continuous Bogoliubov-de Gennes-Dirac (BdGD) equations and derive the Green functions for normal and superconducting graphene layers. Importing the idea used in tight-binding (TB) models of a microscopic hopping that couples different regions, we are able to set up and solve an algebraic Dyson's equation describing a graphene-superconductor junction. For this coupled system we analytically derive the Green functions and use them to calculate the local density of states and the spatial variation of the induced pairing correlations in the normal region. Signatures of specular Andreev reflections are identified.
