description: Real-time calculations in tensor networks are strongly limited in time by entanglement growth, restricting the achievable frequency resolution of Green's functions, spectral functions, self-energies, and other related quantities. By extending the time evolution to contours in the complex plane, entanglement growth is curtailed, enabling numerically efficient high-precision calculations of time-dependent correlators and Green's functions with detailed frequency resolution. Various approaches to time evolution in the complex plane and the required post-processing for extracting the pure real-time and frequency information are compared. We benchmark our results on the examples of the single-impurity Anderson model using matrix-product states and of the three-band Hubbard-Kanamori and Dworin-Narath models using a tree tensor network. Our findings indicate that the proposed methods are also applicable to challenging realistic calculations of materials.

description: We address the discrete inverse conductance problem for well-connected spider networks; that is, to recover the conductance function on a well-connected spider network from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. It is well-known that this inverse problem is exponentially ill-posed, requiring the implementation of a regularization strategy for numerical solutions. Our focus lies in exploring whether prior knowledge of the conductance being piecewise constant within a partition of the edge set comprising few subsets enables stable conductance recovery. To achieve this, we propose formulating the problem as a polynomial optimization one, incorporating a regularization term that accounts for the piecewise constant hypothesis. We show several experimental examples in which the stable conductance recovery under the aforementioned hypothesis is feasible.

description: The congestion of a motorway section is propagated to its neighbouring sections, leading to correlations. The resulting correlation matrix encodes the information on congestion. Here, we study symmetrized time-lagged correlations and show how their spectral properties reveal congestion durations. We carry out an empirical analysis and find a transition behavior for the dominant eigenvalue as function of the time lag. Furthermore, we set up a numerical simulation model for indicator time series of traffic phases as well as a simplified model that we treat analytically. We consider various scenarios. Our results reveal a nonlinear relation between the spectral transition and the congestion duration. In our simplified model, we derive this relation analytically.

description: We construct a regular bound state of two extremal black holes in type IIB supergravity with opposite charges. The bound state resembles the Schwarzschild black hole from the asymptotics to the photon ring and has the same mass and charges as the Schwarzschild black hole. On the one hand, we show that the bound-state entropy admits a microscopic description in terms of branes and antibranes in string theory. On the other hand, we demonstrate that the entropy approaches half of the Schwarzschild entropy as the mass becomes significantly larger than the Kaluza-Klein scales used to regularize the geometry. This opens up the possibility of a brane/antibrane interpretation of the Schwarzschild entropy in string theory.

description: Changes of mind can become less likely the longer an agent has adopted a given opinion state. This resilience or inertia to change has been called ``aging''. We perform a comparative study of the effects of aging on the critical behavior of two standard opinion models with pairwise interactions. One of them is the voter model, which is a two-state model with a dynamic that proceeds by simple social contagion, another is the so-called kinetic exchange model, which allows a third (neutral) state and the formed opinion depends on the previous opinions of both interacting agents. Furthermore, in the noisy version of both models, random opinion changes are also allowed, regardless of the interactions. Due to aging, the probability of change diminishes with the age, and to take this into account we consider algebraic and exponential kernels. We investigate the situation where aging acts only on pairwise interactions. Analytical predictions for the critical curves of the order parameters are obtained for the opinion dynamics on a complete graph, in good agreement with agent-based simulations. For both models considered, consensus is optimized by an intermediate value of the parameter that rules the rate of decrease of the aging factor.

description: We propose an interferometric method to probe pair correlations in a gas of spin-1/2 fermions. The method consists of a Ramsey sequence where both spin states of the Fermi gas are set in a superposition of a state at rest and a state with a large recoil velocity. The two-body density matrix is extracted via the fluctuations of the transferred fraction to the recoiled state. In the pair-condensed phase, the off-diagonal long-range order is directly reflected in the asymptotic behavior of the interferometric signal for long interrogation times. The method also allows to probe the spatial structure of the condensed pairs: the interferometric signal is an oscillating function of the interrogation time in the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer regime; it becomes an overdamped function in the molecular Bose-Einstein condensate regime.

description: Recommendation algorithms forecast user preferences by correlating user and item representations derived from historical interaction patterns. In pursuit of enhanced performance, many methods focus on learning robust and independent representations by disentangling the intricate factors within interaction data across various modalities in an unsupervised manner. However, such an approach obfuscates the discernment of how specific factors (e.g., category or brand) influence the outcomes, making it challenging to regulate their effects. In response to this challenge, we introduce a novel method called Attribute-Driven Disentangled Representation Learning (short for AD-DRL), which explicitly incorporates attributes from different modalities into the disentangled representation learning process. By assigning a specific attribute to each factor in multimodal features, AD-DRL can disentangle the factors at both attribute and attribute-value levels. To obtain robust and independent representations for each factor associated with a specific attribute, we first disentangle the representations of features both within and across different modalities. Moreover, we further enhance the robustness of the representations by fusing the multimodal features of the same factor. Empirical evaluations conducted on three public real-world datasets substantiate the effectiveness of AD-DRL, as well as its interpretability and controllability.

description: Congenital  high  airway obstruction  syndrome (CHAOS)  is  a life-threatening condition with  a  poorly  understood natural history[1].   EXIT  is a controlled technique that  is designed to allow partial  fetal  delivery  via cesarean section  with subsequent establishment  of  a safe  fetal airway,  requires maintenance  of  uterine relaxation  to continue  placental  perfusion and  prevent placental separation[2]. A healthy 28 year old primigravida,   33  weeks  of  gestation,   with  a fetus known  to have  CHAOS due  to tracheal atresia and  ascites,   scheduled  for EXIT. Phase  1: ascites drainage by punction and  fetus external  version (breech presentation) before EXIT.  CSE  was chosen  for this  phase  (5mg  hyperbaric bupivacaine and 25ug fentanyl,   intrathecally),   with  light  conscious sedation  (midazolan  5mg).  Epidural catheter  was placed. Phase 2: Fetus had a  tracheal atresia.  Laryngotracheoplasty was  needed. Based on  estimated fetal weight, an  intramuscular injection  of  fentanyl 10ug/kg,   vecuronium  0.2mg/kg  and atropine  10ug/kg  was given to  the fetus[3]. After propofol induction,  sevoflurane (2  MAC)  and intravenous  nitroglycerin,  to ensure a  fully  relaxed uterus,  and remifentanyl  infusion  (cardiovascular stability),  was given to the mother. Fetopalcental support  last  for 20  min,   fetus laryngotracheoplasty was done. Apgar was 3/4. CSE should  be considered for EXIT.  Nitroglycerin  infusion  along with  deep volatile anesthesia  provides full uterine relaxation preventing  placental separation  while preserving placental  perfusion.  Remifentanyl  should be considered in high-risk obstetric surgery[4].

description: Stakeholder participation in European Biosphere Reserves (BRs) has been extensively studied; however, the evolution of participation at different levels and the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic have been less explored. A mixed-method approach was used to investigate this evolution, including a literature review, analysis of a European longitudinal survey conducted in 2008 and 2021, case study interviews and a questionnaire to Biosphere Reserve managers. Results indicate that stakeholder participation in BRs has become more important over time, with both an increase in the number and diversity of stakeholders involved at higher levels of participation. This increase was augmented by the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) during the pandemic. However, the increased use of ICTs had its challenges, such as the exclusion of certain types of stakeholders from the participatory process. Solutions, such as creating hybrid meeting arenas, are suggested to address these challenges. We conclude by providing recommendations for further enhancing our knowledge base on new forms of participation based on digital platforms.

description: Water unaffordability is a growing environmental justice crisis for vulnerable groups in the United States due to increasing water rates. These injustices disproportionately affect low-income and minority groups. We investigate how organizational capacity and learning processes influence the ways publicly managed water utilities develop and implement policies addressing water unaffordability. We also investigate the connections between financial, relational, and technical capabilities on offered customer assistance plans (CAPs). Combining these two areas of analysis, we examine how organizational capabilities and contextual factors (e.g. citywide poverty) influence the quality and efficacy of CAPs. This comparative case study of 11 cities and towns in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania draws on 33 semi-structured interviews with utility staff and other local officials, as well as a review of policy documents from utilities and online resources. Our findings demonstrate that organizational dynamics undermine the efficacy and adoption of CAPs. From interviews, the efficacy and adoption of CAPs depends on how utilities handle fixed costs and mediate knowledge gaps, and their ability to innovate around financial barriers to meet customer needs. Utilities in high-poverty cities were best situated to leverage organizational capacity in administering CAPs, regardless of utility size.

description: In this paper, we study the spectral theory of soliton condensates - a special limit of soliton gases - for the focusing NLS (fNLS). In particular, we analyze the kinetic equation for the fNLS circular condensate, which represents the first example of an explicitly solvable fNLS condensate with nontrivial large scale space-time dynamics. Solution of the kinetic equation was obtained by reducing it to Whitham type equations for the endpoints of spectral arcs. We also study the rarefaction and dispersive shock waves for circular condensates, as well as calculate the corresponding average conserved quantities and the kurtosis. We want to note that one of the main objects of the spectral theory - the nonlinear dispersion relations - is introduced in the paper as some special large genus (thermodynamic) limit the Riemann bilinear identities that involve the quasimomentum and the quasienergy meromorphic differentials.

description: Citizen participation has a crucial role in delivering the transformations needed to tackle the climate crisis. To capture citizens’ perspectives on the issue, we use a deliberative mini-public on consumption and mobility in Spain. Following a mixed-method research design, we combine the results from a deliberative survey with a thematic analysis, being one of the few case studies transcribing deliberations and systematically identifying the themes emerging from them. Our results show how deliberation increased citizens’ understanding of the complexities of the climate crisis, as well as their willingness to commit to certain behavioural changes and accept certain policies, although it had no effects on policies recognised as unjust. The thematic analysis unveiled participants’ perceived barriers and solutions to climate action and the most common emotions linked to them. Our findings indicate that citizens feel more empowered to act on consumption, as mobility is often seen outside their remit. Moreover, citizens’ feelings of frustration with the current socio-economic system and hope for future changes deserve further scrutiny to evaluate the acceptability of alternative futures. The deliberative process created a space of dialogue among citizens and showed the potential of deliberation to contribute to democratising climate governance and action.

description: There are two types of universality in measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC): ${\it strict}$ and ${\it computational}$. It is well known that the former is stronger than the latter. We present a method of transforming from a certain type of computationally universal MBQC to a strictly universal one. Our method simply replaces a single qubit in a resource state with a Pauli-$Y$ eigenstate. We applied our method to show that hypergraph states can be made strictly universal with only Pauli measurements, while only computationally universal hypergraph states were known.

description: To be effective, a regulatory regime for sustainable development must demonstrate to the regulated entities its resolve to attain regulatory goals while avoiding an arbitrary exercise of authority. Yet many developing countries lack the robust political-administrative institutions to construct and maintain such regimes. The environmental reform in Guangdong, China, shows how, with underdeveloped formal political-administrative institutions, the regulatory regime must demonstrate commitment acts, including transparent enforcement, compliance benchmarking, expectation pacing, and third-party enforcement. These acts help, over time, to maintain enterprises’ perceptions of the regulatory regime’s resolve, clarity, and reasonableness. By analyzing primary data from extensive fieldwork and survey observations conducted at two separate times, we show that enterprises are more likely to adopt environmental management measures if they perceive higher regulatory resolve, clarity, and reasonableness. Their assurance needs vary at different stages of regime development. Establishing clear expectations matters at an earlier stage when regulatory goals are new and expectations relatively lax. Yet, as expectations become more stringent, maintaining reasonableness becomes essential. In both stages, a perception of resoluteness in enforcement matters.

description: Social physics is an active and diverse field in which many scientists with formal training in physics study a broad class of complex social phenomena. Social physics investigates societal problems but most often does not count on the active and conscious participation of the citizens. We here want to support the idea that citizen science, and more particularly citizen social science, can contribute to the broad field of social physics. We do so by sharing some of our own experiences during the last decade. We first describe several human mobility experiments in urban contexts with the participation of concerned young students, old women or other different groups of neighbours. We second share how we have studied community mental health care provision in collaboration with a civil society organisation and with the intense involvement of persons with lived experience in mental health. In both cases, we narrow down the discussion to digital tools being used and the involved participatory dynamics. In this way, we share key learnings to enhance a synergistic relationship between social physics and citizen science and with the aim increase the societal impact of the research on complex social phenomena.

description: The purpose of this research into Design Paradigms in Car History is to evaluate how production car design has changed over the last hundred and twenty-five years or so, using numerical analyses of specific cars, which act as exemplars. This evaluation should lead to a better understanding of car design history and how car designers think. Design thinking can be evidenced from how products have changed over the course of time. Design paradigms have been used to produce a structured analysis of these products (cars) to develop a more holistic understanding of design history than may be available from a purely narrative approach. The research sought to answer some basic questions, including what are design paradigms, when did specific ones appear, and when, why and how quickly did they change? A positivist, quantitative analysis was carried out, analysing over 500 cars from 1878 to 2013 for layout and form design, using a categorical principal components analysis. Timelines and maps were produced identifying paradigms, changes and timescales. A complementary qualitative approach was taken, interviewing car experts – historians, designers, industry leaders and enthusiasts – to identify their constructs on car history and design. Methods used included affinity diagrams and a novel use of repertory grids. Car design paradigms were identified from static layout variables, from about 1904 to 1934, from the mid-1970s onwards, and less pronounced from the late 1930s to the 1980s. These show tight clustering of features. Stepwise changes tend to occur between paradigms. Form changes more smoothly, but still indicates likely dates and paradigmatic thinking. Constructivist analysis identified further wide-ranging paradigms, including societal changes, technology, political and economics. The main conclusion of this research was that design paradigms not only exist, but they can also be measured and this measurement can improve historical understanding. This finding will benefit not only those interested in cars and their history, e.g.museum curators and those training future designers, but also other researchers, who could use a combination of both analytical and constructivist processes, in particular repertory grids, to develop their subject thinking and understanding of historical processes.

description: We numerically investigate the interaction between two Airy pulses propagating at different wavelengths. The periodically varying peak intensity of the soliton that emerges from stronger Airy pulse (pump pulse) leads to the formation of periodic temporal boundary. The relatively weaker Airy pulse (probe pulse) on interaction with this boundary gets partially reflected as well as transmitted. As a result, the probe pulse spectrum splits into two parts -- the reflected pulse spectrum undergoes red shift while transmitted pulse exhibits blue shift. The probe pulse witneses maximum reflection when point of interaction lies on the intensity maxima of the emergent soliton from pump Airy pulse. On the other hand, maximum transmission occurs when probe Airy pulse interacts at the intensity minima of the soliton. The reflection and transmission processes can be manipulated by tuning the time delay between pump and probe Airy pulses. In case of sufficiently intense pump pulse, the temporal boundary mimics the artificial optical event horizon, and the weak probe Airy pulse is completely reflected. This phenomenon is equivalent to the temporal version of total internal reflection. The time delay and truncation parameters play a vital role in the interaction. The results of the study hold potential applications in optical manipulation and temporal waveguiding.

description: Water unaffordability is a growing environmental justice crisis for vulnerable groups in the United States due to increasing water rates. These injustices disproportionately affect low-income and minority groups. We investigate how organizational capacity and learning processes influence the ways publicly managed water utilities develop and implement policies addressing water unaffordability. We also investigate the connections between financial, relational, and technical capabilities on offered customer assistance plans (CAPs). Combining these two areas of analysis, we examine how organizational capabilities and contextual factors (e.g. citywide poverty) influence the quality and efficacy of CAPs. This comparative case study of 11 cities and towns in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania draws on 33 semi-structured interviews with utility staff and other local officials, as well as a review of policy documents from utilities and online resources. Our findings demonstrate that organizational dynamics undermine the efficacy and adoption of CAPs. From interviews, the efficacy and adoption of CAPs depends on how utilities handle fixed costs and mediate knowledge gaps, and their ability to innovate around financial barriers to meet customer needs. Utilities in high-poverty cities were best situated to leverage organizational capacity in administering CAPs, regardless of utility size.

description: We present results for the $τ_1$ and $τ_{1a}$ 1-Jettiness global event shape distributions, for Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS), at the N$^3$LL + ${\cal O}(α_s^2)$ level of accuracy. These event-shape distributions quantify and characterize the pattern of final state radiation in electron-nucleus collisions. They can be used as a probe of nuclear structure functions, nuclear medium effects in jet production, and for a precision extraction of the QCD strong coupling. The results presented here, along with the corresponding numerical codes, can be used for analyses with HERA data, in EIC simulation studies, and for eventual comparison with real EIC data.

L'inizio dei corsi di Diritto penale nella napoleonica "Académie de Turin"

Subjects: Giuseppe Boyer; Criminal Law course; University of Turin

description: Criminal law has historically been neglected in the teaching programmes of the University of Turin, at least until the 19th century. The traditional teaching programme of the Universities of Ancien Régime was bascally set to the courses of ius commune and ius canonico, and it did not address subjects as feudal law, commercial law and criminal law (though they had significant practical implications). This paper aims at recreating the first attempts to create a permanent Criminal Law course in Turin, made by French “occupants” in the early years of 18th century, established through university reforms made by Napoleon and then removed with the restoration of the Savoy monarchy.

description: Provision of acceptable indoor air quality in multifamily buildings (MFBs) depends on the interior air flows that impact dilution of contaminants, cross-contamination between units and building energy use. The airtightness of interior partitions and design of ventilation systems in MFBs determine the flows across building partitions. These flows change the total ventilation rate for the building and individual units, and impact the mixing of air and contaminants between apartment units or with common spaces. This study examines the changes in air flow and contaminant transport in MFBs using combined CONTAM/EnergyPlus models. Key parameters were systematically varied, including climate, apartment airtightness, and mechanical ventilation system type. Simulations were performed for mid-rise buildings with and without an enclosed common corridor, and a 20-story high-rise building. Contaminants simulated in the analysis were PM2.5, formaldehyde, water vapor, and CO2. Key results of this work are that current airtightness requirements in ASHRAE 62.2 sufficiently limit transport of key contaminants, independent of the type of ventilation system across all three building typologies, and significantly reduce energy use in colder climates. The results of this work are intended to assist codes and standards bodies in setting appropriate airtightness limits and ventilation system design guidelines for MFBs. Tightening units below ASHRAE 62.2’s compartmentalization limit provided diminishing returns for controlling inter-unit contaminant transfer Increased compartmentalization provided better control of air flows and contaminant concentrations, resulting in less extreme peak concentrations Mechanical ventilation system type had a marginal impact on the level of inter-unit contaminant transfer. Compartmentalization significantly reduced space conditioning energy loads in colder climates
