description: Effective dimension reduction is essential for single cell RNA-seq (scRNAseq) analysis. Principal component analysis (PCA) is widely used, but requires continuous, normally-distributed data; therefore, it is often coupled with log-transformation in scRNAseq applications, which can distort the data and obscure meaningful variation. We describe correspondence analysis (CA), a count-based alternative to PCA. CA is based on decomposition of a chi-squared residual matrix, avoiding distortive log-transformation. To address overdispersion and high sparsity in scRNAseq data, we propose fve adaptations of CA, which are fast, scalable, and outperform standard CA and glmPCA, to compute cell embeddings with more performant or comparable clustering accuracy in 8 out of 9 datasets. In particular, we fnd that CA with Freeman–Tukey residuals performs especially well across diverse datasets. Other advantages of the CA framework include visualization of associations between genes and cell populations in a “CA biplot,” and extension to multi-table analysis; we introduce corralm for integrative multi-table dimension reduction of scRNAseq data. We implement CA for scRNAseq data in corral, an R/Bioconductor package which interfaces directly with single cell classes in Bioconductor. Switching from PCA to CA is achieved through a simple pipeline substitution and improves dimension reduction of scRNAseq datasets

description: Quantum-critical states of diverse strongly correlated systems are predicted to feature universal collision-dominated transport resembling that of viscous fluids. However, investigation of these phenomena has been hampered by the lack of known macroscopic signatures of the hydrodynamic regime at criticality. Here we identify vorticity as such a signature and link it with an easily verifiable striking macroscopic transport behavior. Produced by the viscous flow, vorticity can drive electric current against an applied field, resulting in a negative nonlocal voltage. We argue that the latter may play the same role for the viscous regime as zero electrical resistance does for superconductivity. Besides offering a diagnostic of viscous transport which distinguishes it from ohmic currents, the sign-changing electrical response affords a robust tool for directly measuring the viscosity-to-resistivity ratio. The strongly interacting electron-hole plasma in high-mobility graphene provides a bridge between quantum-criticality and the wealth of fluid mechanics phenomena.

Multiple localization transitions and novel quantum phases induced by staggered on-site potential

description: We propose an one-dimensional generalized Aubry-Andr{é}-Harper (AAH) model with off-diagonal hopping and staggered on-site potential. We find that the localization transitions could be multiple reentrant with the increasing of staggered on-site potential. The multiple localization transitions are verified by the quantum static and dynamic measurements such as the inversed or normalized participation ratios, fractal dimension and survival probability. Based on the finite-size scaling analysis, we also obtain an interesting intermediate phase where the extended, localized and critical states are coexistent in certain regime of model parameters. These results are quite different from those in the generalized AAH model with off-diagonal hopping, and can help us to find novel quantum phases, new localization phenomena in the disordered systems.

description: The effects of kinematic cuts on electric charge fluctuations in a gas of charged particles are discussed. We consider a very transparent example of an ideal pion gas with quantum statistics, which can be viewed as a multi-component gas of Boltzmann particles with different charges and masses. Cumulants of net-electric charge fluctuations $χ_n^Q$ are calculated in a static and expanding medium with flow parameters adjusted to the experimental data. We show that the transverse momentum cut, $p_{t_\text{min}}\leq p_t\leq p_{t_\text{max}}$, weakens the effects of Bose statistics, i.e. contributions of effectively multi-charged states to higher order moments. Consequently, cuts in $p_t$ modify the experimentally measured cumulants and their ratios. We discuss the influence of kinematic cuts on the ratio of mean and variance of electric charge fluctuations in a hadron resonance gas, in the light of recent data of the STAR and PHENIX Collaborations. We find that the different momentum cuts of $p_{t_\text{min}}=0.2$~GeV (STAR) and $p_{t_\text{min}}=0.3$~GeV (PHENIX) are responsible for more than 30\% of the difference between these two data sets. We argue that the $p_t$ cuts imposed on charged particles will influence the normalized kurtosis {$κ_Qσ_Q^2 = χ_4^Q/χ_2^Q$} of the electric charge fluctuations. In particular, the reduction of $κ_Qσ_Q^2$ with increasing $p_{t_\text{min}}$ will lead to differences between PHENIX and STAR data of ${\cal O}(6\%)$ which currently are buried under large statistical and systematic errors. We furthermore introduce the relation between momentum cut-off and finite volume effects, which is of relevance for the comparison between experimental data and lattice QCD calculations.

Environmental effects on immune responses in patients with atopy and asthma

Year: 2014

description: Despite attempts and some successes to improve air quality over the decades, current U.S. national trends suggest that exposure to outdoor and indoor air pollution remains a significant risk factor for both the development of asthma and the triggering of asthma symptoms. Emerging science also suggests that environmental exposures during the prenatal period and early childhood years increase the risk of developing asthma. Multiple mechanisms mediate this risk as a wide range of deleterious air pollutants contribute to the pathogenesis of asthma, across a variety of complex asthma phenotypes. In this review, we will consider the role of altered innate and adaptive immune responses, gene by environment interactions, epigenetic regulation, and possibly gene by environment by epigene interactions. Gaining a greater understanding of the mechanisms that underlie the impact of exposure to air pollution on asthma, allergies, and other airway diseases can identify targets for therapy. Such interventions will include pollutant source reduction amongst those most exposed and most vulnerable, and novel pharmaceutical strategies to reduce asthma morbidity.

description: In this work, we formulate the theory of Lorentz-violating scalar Quantum Chromodynamics with an arbitrary non-Abelian gauge group. This theory belongs to the class of models encompassed by the standard model extension framework. At the lowest order in the theory's Lorentz violation parameters, we calculate the divergent quantum corrections, including the renormalization group $β$-functions of the theory. The Lorentz-violating sector is shown to be scale invariant if there is a particular relation between the couplings.

description: Pelagic larvae of Spio decoratus were collected. Their morphology appears varied, a part of them being identical to some larvae of Spio martinensis. The rearing in laboratory culture through juvenile stages, the research of spawnings, some additional samplings of meroplankton, lead up to the following conclusions: —two developmental patterns occurred in Spio decoratus, one is benthic, the other one pelagic; —in the Gulf of Marseilles, all the pelagic larvae collected are of the same type; polymorphism depends on the duration of planktonic life; —Spio decoratus and Spio martinensis are two distinct species, but the difference between them is very small : so an identical young benthic stage occurs in their development.

description: Integrated quantum photonics has recently emerged as a powerful platform for generating, manipulating, and detecting entangled photons. Multipartite entangled states lie at the heart of the quantum physics and are the key enabling resources for scalable quantum information processing. Dicke state is an important class of genuinely entangled state, which has been systematically studied in the light-matter interactions, quantum state engineering and quantum metrology. Here, by using a silicon photonic chip, we report the generation and collectively coherent control of the entire family of four-photon Dicke states, i.e. with arbitrary excitations. We generate four entangled photons from two microresonators and coherently control them in a linear-optic quantum circuit, in which the nonlinear and linear processing are achieved in a chip-scale device. The generated photons are in telecom band, which lays the groundwork for large-scale photonic quantum technologies for multiparty networking and metrology.

description: Spontaneously emergent chirality is an issue of fundamental importance across the natural sciences. It has been argued that a unidirectional (chiral) rotation of a mechanical ratchet is forbidden in thermal equilibrium, but becomes possible in systems out of equilibrium. Here we report our finding that a topologically nontrivial spin texture known as a skyrmion - a particle-like object in which spins point in all directions to wrap a sphere - constitutes such a ratchet. By means of Lorentz transmission electron microscopy we show that micron-sized crystals of skyrmions in thin films of Cu2OSeO3 and MnSi display a unidirectional rotation motion. Our numerical simulations based on a stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation suggest that this rotation is driven solely by thermal fluctuations in the presence of a temperature gradient, whereas in thermal equilibrium it is forbidden by the Bohr-van Leeuwen theorem. We show that the rotational flow of magnons driven by the effective magnetic field of skyrmions gives rise to the skyrmion rotation, therefore suggesting that magnons can be used to control the motion of these spin textures.

description: With the development of deep generative models, recent years have seen great success of Chinese landscape painting generation. However, few works focus on controllable Chinese landscape painting generation due to the lack of data and limited modeling capabilities. In this work, we propose a controllable Chinese landscape painting generation method named CCLAP, which can generate painting with specific content and style based on Latent Diffusion Model. Specifically, it consists of two cascaded modules, i.e., content generator and style aggregator. The content generator module guarantees the content of generated paintings specific to the input text. While the style aggregator module is to generate paintings of a style corresponding to a reference image. Moreover, a new dataset of Chinese landscape paintings named CLAP is collected for comprehensive evaluation. Both the qualitative and quantitative results demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art performance, especially in artfully-composed and artistic conception. Codes are available at https://github.com/Robin-WZQ/CCLAP.

description: In this article, we study the stability of black hole solutions found in the context of dilatonic Horava-Lifshitz gravity in $1+1$ dimensions by means of the quasinormal modes approach. In order to find the corresponding quasinormal modes, we consider the perturbations of massive and massless scalar fields minimally coupled to gravity. In both cases, we found that the quasinormal modes have a discrete spectrum and are completely imaginary, which leads to damping modes. For a massive scalar field and a non-vanishing cosmological constant, our results suggest unstable behaviour for large values of the scalar field mass.

description: The paper examines a trapped one-dimensional system of multicomponent spinless fermions that interact with a zero-range two-body potential. We show that when the repulsion between particles is very large the system can be approached analytically. To illustrate this analytical approach we consider a simple system of three distinguishable particles, which can be addressed experimentally. For this system we show that for infinite repulsion the energy spectrum is sixfold degenerate. We also show that this degeneracy is partially lifted for finitely large repulsion for which we find and describe corresponding wave functions.

description: We introduce a method of characterization of non-Markovianity using coherence of a system interacting with the environment. We show that under the allowed incoherent operations, monotonicity of a valid coherence measure is affected due to non-Markovian features of the system-environment evolution. We also define a measure to quantify non-Markovianity of the underlying dynamics based on the non-monotonic behavior of the coherence measure. We investigate our proposed non-Markovianity marker in the behavior of dephasing and dissipative dynamics for one and two qubit cases. We also show that our proposed measure captures the back-flow of information from the environment to the system and compatible with well known distinguishability criteria of non-Markovianity.

THE NON-POLYCHAETOUS ANNELIDS OF NORFOLK, ENGLAND, WITH ADDITIONAL NOTES ON POLYCHAETES
Creators: name: HAMOND, Richard
Publisher: name: Station Biologique de Roscoff (SBR)
Year: 1972

description: An annotated list is given of the Norfolk marine and brackish-water archian- nelids, oligochaetes, and hirudineans, based on more or less casual records ; none of these species are unusual in any way in the present context, and the only onepreviously found on the Norfolk coast was the skate-leech Pontobdella muricata.
Notes are also given on some polychaetes recorded by Redeke & van Breemen (1904), by Kirkegaard (1969), and by myself since my last paper on Norfolk polychaetes (Hamond, 1966). Microphthalmus aberrans is certainly, and Proceraea prismatica probably, new to the British Isles; Sthenelais limicola, Eteone lactea, Goniada maculata, Nerine bonnieri and Polycirrus medusa are all new to Norfolk, from the marine and brackish-water areas of which there are now known 147 species of polychaete. Thelepus cincinnatus is recorded for the first time as a host for Harmothoe lunulata, and a new record is given for Pectinaria belgica. Finally, the distributions of various species are discussed in relation to their apparent preferences for certain substrata or types of water, and an attempt is made to suggest which of the central North Sea species, as yet unknown from the Norfolk area, may in future be found there.

description: This paper proposes a novel approach to design reduced-order distributed consensus controllers for multi-agent systems (MASs) with identical linear dynamics of agents. A new model namely edge dynamics representing the differences on agents' states is first presented. Then the distributed consensus controller design is shown to be equivalent to the synthesis of a distributed stabilizing controller for this edge dynamics. Consequently, based on LQR approach, the globally optimal and locally optimal distributed stabilizing controller designs are proposed, of which the locally distributed stabilizing controller for the edge dynamics results in a distributed consensus controller for the MAS with no conservative bound on the coupling strength. This approach is next further developed to obtain reduced-order distributed consensus controllers for linear MASs. Several numerical examples are introduced to illustrate the theoretical results.

description: When choosing between competing symbolic models for a data set, a human will naturally prefer the "simpler" expression or the one which more closely resembles equations previously seen in a similar context. This suggests a non-uniform prior on functions, which is, however, rarely considered within a symbolic regression (SR) framework. In this paper we develop methods to incorporate detailed prior information on both functions and their parameters into SR. Our prior on the structure of a function is based on a $n$-gram language model, which is sensitive to the arrangement of operators relative to one another in addition to the frequency of occurrence of each operator. We also develop a formalism based on the Fractional Bayes Factor to treat numerical parameter priors in such a way that models may be fairly compared though the Bayesian evidence, and explicitly compare Bayesian, Minimum Description Length and heuristic methods for model selection. We demonstrate the performance of our priors relative to literature standards on benchmarks and a real-world dataset from the field of cosmology.

description: As in many other countries, Italian comics market is living a transitional period. Struggling with an unstable industry and an erratic economic scenario, independent publishing companies are finding it necessary to change their production system. In this panorama, hybrid publishers are emerging with structures, modalities and ideologies taken from the self-publishing movement. Often established by the same comics artists, in these entities similarities between DIY comics and independent publishers go beyond a similar artistic network: creative issues, collective management and ethics of art coexist with a typical publishing business. The idea is finding an “organized” way of self-publishing, giving more creative and economical power to the artists and conducting stronger demands about fair salaries and equal contracts. But how this way could be viable? The paper will investigate some Italian alternative publishers that are combining artistic independence with a “new approach” in production. In particular, we will focus on Progetto Stigma: a publishing project founded in 2017 and managed directly by comics artists. Through a gaze on its editorial methodology, production patterns and philosophy, we will analyze new production and promotion methods.

description: Excitonic condensation and superfluidity have recently received a renewed attention, due to the fabrication of bilayer systems in which electrons and hole are spatially separated and form stable pairs known as indirect excitons. Dichalcogenides- and graphene- based bilayers are nowadays built and investigated, giving access to systems with (i) only spin degeneracy, (ii) spin and valley degeneracy. Simulation studies performed in the last decade at $T=0$ for simple, model electron-hole bilayers, as function of inter-layer distance and in-layer carrier density, have revealed in case (i) the formation of biexcitons in a tiny region of parameter space and in case (ii) the formation of stable compounds made of 4 electrons and 4 holes (quadriexcitons) in a sizable region of parameter space. Of some interest is the relation of the properties of isolated biexcitons (quadriexcitons) and those of their finite density counterpart. In fact, the isolated biexciton has been repeatedly studied in the last years with simulations and other techniques. No simulations, instead, are available to our knowledge for the isolated quadriexciton, for which we present here results of the first quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) study. Stability with respect to the dissociation into biexcitons, and the pair correlations with varying the inter-layer distance $d$ are discussed.

description: Additional file 4 Title of data: Predicted hamstring moment-arm vs joint angle curves. Description of data: Figure displaying mean (SD) knee flexion and hip extension moment arm values of biceps femoris long head (BFlh) and semimembranosus (SM) (upper graph) and semitendinosus (ST) (lower graph) at 15 different hip (H) and knee (K) flexion angles as predicted using forward simulation modeling. Values were obtained from the full-body running model [53], the Lower limb model 2010 [50], the refined musculoskeletal model [51], and the Gait2354_simbody model [49,54] and the full body model [52] using OpenSim version 4.2 software [58]. Using each model, the hamstrings muscles were fixed at five hip flexion angles (0° = neutral, −20°, 45°, 90° and 120°) and data were obtained at each 10° of knee joint motion from 0° (full extension) to 100° of flexion. Error bars indicate standard deviation.

description: Esophageal eosinophilia can be proton pump inhibitor (PPI) resistant or responsive, representing two entities known as eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and PPI-responsive esophageal eosinophilia (PPI-REE), respectively. Although they present with similar clinical features, EoE is accepted to be an antigen–driven, Th2-associated allergic disorder, whereas the etiology of PPI-REE remains a mystery.

description: Morphometric and meristic characters of the two carangid species, C. crysos and C. rhonchus were studied from Gulf of Gabes, Tunisia, Eastern Mediterranean. Monthly samples of the two species were collected during one year for this study. Eleven morphometric (in percentage of total fish length) and seven meristic characters have been studied. No significant differences were observed between male and female fish. Negative allometric growth of morphometric characters of C. crysos and C. rhonchus were observed.
MORPHOLOGICAL VARIATIONS IN MYTILUS FROM THE FRENCH COASTS IN RELATION TO THE OCCURRENCE AND DISTRIBUTION OF M. GALLOPROVINCIALIS LAMARCK

Year: 1972

description: Both M. edulis and M. galloprovincialis on the coasts of France showed considerable variability, especially in shell shape, and on this character alone many individuals would undoubtedly have been misidentified. However, the majority of galloprovincialis could generally be identified by their somewthat more pointedand downturned umbones, frequently associated with some form of beaking or with a prominent umbo/lunule swelling.
The dark colour of the mantle edge, absence of longitudinal rays on the shell and the small size of the anterior adductor muscle scar and hinge plates generally proved to be more reliable taxonomic characters than external shell morphology.
M. galloprovincialis is the dominant mussel in the Mediterranean. It also extends along the length of the Atlantic coast of France and into the Channel as far as the Cotentin. A few individuals were recorded on the west coast of the Cotentin but none were found east of Cherbourg. M. edulis on the other hand, occurred at all the stations on the Channel and Atlantic coasts but very few positive identifications were made in the Mediterranean.
Although both M. galloprovincialis and the « Padstow mussel » from southwest England exhibit wide variations, particularly in their shell morphology, the striking similarity between animals from similar environmental conditions indicates quite conclusively that these mussels are synonymous forms of Mytilus.
