description: Complex potentials are constructed as Darboux-deformations of short range, radial nonsingular potentials. They behave as optical devices which both refracts and absorbs light waves. The deformation preserves the initial spectrum of energies and it is implemented by means of a Gamow-Siegert function (resonance state). As straightforward example, the method is applied to the radial square well. Analytical derivations of the involved resonances show that they are `quantized' while the corresponding wave-functions are shown to behave as bounded states under the broken of parity symmetry of the related one-dimensional problem.

description: This paper investigates the relationship between private and public investment in R&D, while taking into account the effect of several instruments policies such as subsidies and taxes. We design a new look of knowledge spillovers and R&D cooperation to explain the contribution of public and private R&D on growth. We propose a heterogeneous dynamic panel data model to consider the endogenous effect of R&D investment. We also distinguish between the estimated long and short run results. Our results based on a sample of 23 countries over the period 1992-2004 indicate that both public and private investments in R&D are complementary. By establishing an endogenous growth model, the estimates indicate that public and private R&D depends on the host country's human capital investment. Results indicate that foreign direct investment is a more significant spillover channel than imports.

description: Axion Like Particles (ALPs), postulated to solve the strong-CP problem, are predicted to couple with photons in the presence of magnetic fields, which may lead to a significant change in the observed spectra of gamma-ray sources such as AGNs. Here we simultaneously consider in the same framework both the photon/axion mixing that takes place in the gamma-ray source and that one expected to occur in the intergalactic magnetic fields. We show that photon/axion mixing could explain recent puzzles regarding the observed spectra of distant gamma-ray sources as well as the recently published lower limit to the EBL intensity. We finally summarize the different signatures expected and discuss the best strategy to search for ALPs with the Fermi satellite and current Cherenkov telescopes like CANGAROO, HESS, MAGIC and VERITAS.

description: We synthesized ACu3Ru4O12 (A = Na, Na0.5Ca0.5, Ca, Ca0.5La0.5, La) and measured their DC magnetization, AC susceptibility, specific heat, and resistivity, in order to investigate the effects of the hetero-valent substitution. A broad peak in the DC magnetization around 200 K was observed only in CaCu3Ru4O12, suggesting the Kondo effect due to localized Cu2+ ions. However, the electronic specific heat coefficients exhibit large values not only for CaCu3Ru4O12 but also for all the other samples. Moreover, the Wilson ratio and the Kadowaki-Woods ratio of our samples are all similar to the values of other heavy-fermion compounds. These results question the Kondo effect as the dominant origin of the mass enhancement, and rather indicate the importance of correlations among itinerant Ru electrons.

The development of a germanium lithium-drift gamma spectrometer and preliminary applications to positron physics
Creators: name: Dably, David Allan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The development of a high-resolution gamma ray spectrometer incorporating a germanium lithium-drift radiation detector is described. Sources of electrical noise in detectors and low-noise field-effect transistor preamplifiers are discussed. Modifications were made to available preamplifier circuits with a slight improvement in noise characteristics. A very-low-noise preamplifier using a 2N3823 field-effect transistor was tested, and an unconventional design inductive-load field-effect transistor preamplifier was built and tested. Refinements on germanium detector preparation techniques previously in use are described with particular reference to the starting material used. The design of a stainless steel cryostat to house germanium detectors is discussed. Performance characteristics of a 5 cc. detector are given. Preliminary measurements with it of the Doppler broadening of the annihilation peak in Ni and Zn are presented. A spectrum of annihilations of ortho-positronium formed in Freon 12 is given. The detector system is evaluated with reference to suitability in positron physics.

description: The Megamaser Cosmology Project (MCP) seeks to measure the Hubble Constant (Ho) in order to improve the extragalactic distance scale and constrain the nature of dark energy. We are searching for sources of water maser emission from AGN with sub-pc accretion disks, as in NGC 4258, and following up these discoveries with Very Long Baseline Interferometric (VLBI) imaging and spectral monitoring. Here we present a VLBI map of the water masers toward UGC 3789, a galaxy well into the Hubble Flow. We have observed masers moving at rotational speeds up to 800 km/s at radii as small as 0.08 pc. Our map reveals masers in a nearly edge-on disk in Keplerian rotation about a 10^7 Msun supermassive black hole. When combined with centripetal accelerations, obtained by observing spectral drifts of maser features (to be presented in Paper II), the UGC 3789 masers may provide an accurate determination of Ho, independent of luminosities and metallicity and extinction corrections.

description: Using the Infrared Spectrograph on board the Spitzer Space Telescope, we present low-resolution (64 < lambda / dlambda < 124), mid-infrared (20-38 micron) spectra of 23 high-redshift ULIRGs detected in the Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey. All of the sources were selected to have 1) fnu(24 micron) > 0.5 mJy; 2) R-[24] > 14 Vega mag; and 3) a prominent rest-frame 1.6 micron stellar photospheric feature redshifted into Spitzer's 3-8 micron IRAC bands. Of these, 20 show emission from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), usually interpreted as signatures of star formation. The PAH features indicate redshifts in the range 1.5 < z < 3.0, with a mean of =1.96 and a dispersion of 0.30. Based on local templates, these sources have extremely large infrared luminosities, comparable to that of submillimeter galaxies. Our results confirm previous indications that the rest-frame 1.6 micron stellar bump can be efficiently used to select highly obscured starforming galaxies at z~2, and that the fraction of starburst-dominated ULIRGs increases to faint 24 micron flux densities. Using local templates, we find that the observed narrow redshift distribution is due to the fact that the 24 micron detectability of PAH-rich sources peaks sharply at z = 1.9. We can analogously explain the broader redshift distribution of Spitzer-detected AGN-dominated ULIRGs based on the shapes of their SEDs. Finally, we conclude that z~2 sources with a detectable 1.6 micron stellar opacity feature lack sufficient AGN emission to veil the 7.7 micron PAH band.

description: The Lyman-alpha (Lya) emission line is the primary observational signature of star-forming galaxies at the highest redshifts, and has enabled the compilation of large samples of galaxies with which to study cosmic evolution. The resonant nature of the line, however, means that Lya photons scatter in the neutral interstellar medium of their host galaxies, and their sensitivity to absorption by interstellar dust may therefore be enhanced greatly. This implies that the Lya luminosity may be significantly reduced, or even completely suppressed. Hitherto, no unbiased empirical test of the escaping fraction (f_esc) of Lya photons has been performed at high redshifts. Here we report that the average fesc from star-forming galaxies at redshift z = 2.2 is just 5 per cent by performing a blind narrowband survey in Lya and Ha. This implies that numerous conclusions based on Lya-selected samples will require upwards revision by an order of magnitude and we provide a benchmark for this revision. We demonstrate that almost 90 per cent of star-forming galaxies emit insufficient Lya to be detected by standard selection criteria. Both samples show an anti-correlation of fesc with dust content, and we show that Lya- and Ha-selection recovers populations that differ substantially in dust content and fesc.

Atomic-scale simulations on the sliding of incommensurate surfaces: The breakdown of superlubricity

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)

description: Molecular dynamics simulations of frictional sliding in an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) show a clear dependence of superlubricity between incommensurate surfaces on tip compliance and applied normal force. While the kinetic friction vanishes for rigid tips and low normal force, superlubric behavior breaks down for softer tips and high normal force. The simulations provide evidence that the Frenkel-Kontorova-Tomlinson (FKT) scaling applies equally to a more realistic 3-D incommensurate AFM model except in the limit of very low stiffness and high normal load limit. Unlike the FKT model in which the breakdown of superlubricity coincides to the emergence of the meta-stable states, in the 3-D model some meta-stable states appear to reduce frictional force leading to non-monotonic dependence of force on normal load and tip compliance. Meta-stable states vary with the slider positions, and the relative stabilities of these meta-stable states result in varying transition mechanisms depending on sliding velocity.

description: We develop group-mean fully modified OLS (FM-OLS) estimation and inference for panels of cointegrating polynomial regressions, i.e., regressions that include an integrated process and its powers as explanatory variables. The stationary errors are allowed to be serially correlated, the integrated regressors – allowed to contain drifts – to be endogenous and, as usual in the panel literature, we include individual-specific fixed effects and also allow for individual-specific time trends. We consider a fixed cross-section dimension and asymptotics in the time dimension only. Within this setting, we develop cross-section dependence robust inference for the group-mean estimator. In both the simulations and an illustrative application estimating environmental Kuznets curves (EKCs) for carbon dioxide emissions we compare our group-mean FM-OLS approach with a recently proposed pooled FM-OLS approach of de Jong and Wagner.
Studies of supersonic beam formation at low temperatures for a polarized helium 3 ion source
Creators: name: Vyse, Robert Norman
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The formation of a molecular beam using a miniature supersonic nozzle source is discussed. The results of operation at room, liquid nitrogen and liquid helium temperatures of a supersonic nozzle system designed for use in a polarized helium³ ion source are presented. It is shown that helium⁴ beam intensities at 4.2ºK are approximately 1/8 of those at 300ºK. Factors upon which the beam intensity depend have been investigated experimentally and it is found that at room temperature and a distance of 16cm from the skimmer a heliun⁴ beam intensity of 3x10¹⁶ molecules/cm²/sec is attainable under certain circumstances. This beam intensity is an improvement by a factor of 10 over the original performance of the nozzle source. Assuming a 40% transmission through the magnet and a 0.25% ionization efficiency an ion current of 0.02 microamperes is estimated for the polarized helium³ ion source.

description: The mapping of steady-state nonequilibrium dynamical mean-field theory from the lattice to the impurity is described in detail. Our focus is on the case with current flow under a constant dc electric field of arbitrary magnitude. In addition to formulating the problem via path integrals and functional derivatives, we also describe the distribution function dependence of the retarded and advanced Green's functions. Our formal developments are exact for the Falicov-Kimball model. We also show how these formal developments are modified for more complicated models (like the Hubbard model).

Computational Geometric and Algebraic Topology

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Konferenzschrift
subject: 510

description: Computational topology is a young, emerging field of mathematics that seeks out practical algorithmic methods for solving complex and fundamental problems in geometry and topology. It draws on a wide variety of techniques from across pure mathematics (including topology, differential geometry, combinatorics, algebra, and discrete geometry), as well as applied mathematics and theoretical computer science. In turn, solutions to these problems have a wide-ranging impact: already they have enabled significant progress in the core area of geometric topology, introduced new methods in applied mathematics, and yielded new insights into the role that topology has to play in fundamental problems surrounding computational complexity. At least three significant branches have emerged in computational topology: algorithmic 3-manifold and knot theory, persistent homology and surfaces and graph embeddings. These branches have emerged largely independently. However, it is clear that they have much to offer each other. The goal of this workshop was to be the first significant step to bring these three areas together, to share ideas in depth, and to pool our expertise in approaching some of the major open problems in the field.

description: The present document, is the second version of the Annual Report of Marketing, Sales and Partnership Activities (D7.3 due in M24), and outlines the measures that took place during the second reporting period (M13-M24). The major aim of this deliverable is to present the performed activities that were executed during the second year of the project’s implementation regarding the marketing, sales and partnership aspects of TheFSM project. Thus, the purpose of this document is to showcase the benefits of the marketing strategy (digital and physical mix) and its importance of its alignment with the project’s operation and business goals. It analyses the pathways that drove the consortium to adopt this strategy and its main three pillars (brand identity, digital and physical marketing) that helped our marketing strategy to achieve its aims: (i) brand awareness; (ii) generate links; (iii) nurture leads; (iv) increase the number our audience; (v) build a community and (vi) promote the platform in targeted, well-known markets. Furthermore, this deliverable, records all the actions that were designed, developed and applied in order to increase the influence that our project has to its audience both with the utilization of online and offline practices (such as social media, video, campaigns, etc.). Additionally, this deliverable identifies the communities that our project aims to develop networking activities, towards the adoption of TheFSM platform, as well as the evolution of the business ecosystem around it. It also includes a list of prominent networks that our consortium aims to create links and a list of successful implemented networking measures (with the GFSI, BDVA and Trial Alliance) that our project built upon in order to promote the positioning of TheFSM platform. This version of the present deliverable, it includes metrics that were used in order to report and monitor both the marketing and partnership activities, while providing evidence of the activity, ensuring their successful implementation and the achievement of their initial goal

description: This workshop brought together historians of mathematics and science as well as mathematicians to explore important historical developments connected with models and visual elements in the mathematical and physical sciences. It addressed the larger question of what has been meant by a model, a notion that has seldom been subjected to careful historical study. Most of the talks dealt with case studies from the period 1800 to 1950 that covered a number of analytical, geometrical, mechanical, astronomical, and physical phenomena. The workshop also considered the role of visual thinking as a component of mathematical creativity and understanding.

The images were taken with VIMOS instrument at ESO VLT during 4 contiguous nights in April 2005. We detected 348 variables among 50897 stars in the magnitude range between V=15.4 and V=24.5 mag. Upon detection, we classified the variables by direct eye inspection of their light curves. All variable objects but 9 OGLE transits in the field are new discoveries. We provide a complete catalog of all variables which includes eclipsing/ellipsoidal binaries, miscellaneous pulsators (mostly delta Scuti-type variables), stars with flares and other (irregular and likely long-period) variables. Only two of the stars in our sample are known to host planets. Our result give some implications for future large variability surveys.

description: We investigate the onset of collective oscillations in a network of pulse-coupled leaky-integrate-and-fire neurons in the presence of quenched and annealed disorder. We find that the disorder induces a weak form of chaos that is analogous to that arising in the Kuramoto model for a finite number N of oscillators [O.V. Popovych at al., Phys. Rev. E 71} 065201(R) (2005)]. In fact, the maximum Lyapunov exponent turns out to scale to zero for N going to infinite, with an exponent that is different for the two types of disorder. In the thermodynamic limit, the random-network dynamics reduces to that of a fully homogenous system with a suitably scaled coupling strength. Moreover, we show that the Lyapunov spectrum of the periodically collective state scales to zero as 1/N^2, analogously to the scaling found for the `splay state'.

description: The non-equilibrium distribution of colloids in a polymer solution under a temperature gradient is studied experimentally. A slight increase of local temperature by a focused laser drives the colloids towards the hot region, resulting in the trapping of the colloids irrespective of their own thermophoretic properties. An amplification of the trapped colloid density with the polymer concentration is measured, and is quantitatively explained by hydrodynamic theory. The origin of the attraction is a migration of colloids driven by a non-uniform polymer distribution sustained by the polymer's thermophoresis. These results show how to control thermophoretic properties of colloids.

Gravitating effect of gravitation.
Creators: name: Lam, Dominic Man-Kit
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The work reported in this thesis is based on the vierbein field formulation of gravitational theory, used in conjunction with the method of the compensating field. It is shown that the most general linear equations of second order for a tensor field, which are invariant under orientations of the local inertial frame and under gauge transformations of the vierbein field components are identical with Einstein's field equation written down in the weak field approximation. An attempt is made to take into account any possibly existing gravitating effect of gravitation by applying the method of the compensating field to the weak field Lagrangian, resulting in a set of nonlinear field equations. The invariance properties of the modified field equations are examined, and some special solutions are exhibited.

description: The effective use of digital technology and disruptive innovations are increasingly shaping the way companies survive in today’s markets. Consequently, the need for German Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to perform a digital transformation, which implies the creation of a new business model through sophisticated technologies, is gaining significance for succeeding in the digital age. While most German SMEs have already accomplished a digitization of their collaboration and communication,a profound digital transformation is still imminent for the majority. Based on the investigation of existing literature on the subject, this paper demonstrates the suitability of design thinking methods to develop strategic thrust for a digital transformation. The key potential of design thinking is rooted in its ability to creatively solve problems and reinforce skills needed to address dynamic environments. An exemplary result of using design thinking to develop strategic thrust is presented with the fictional business model GreenCube. The concept aims to assist German SMEs in performing a digital transformation by simplifying the incorporation of sophisticated digital technologies and providing opportunities for networking and thus integrating into an ecosystem. Despite their potential, design thinking activities involve several challenges including the incongruence of pre-defined specifications and designed concepts, the gap between a focus on time-reduction and a focus on experimentation, and the lack of measurability of design thinking gains. Nevertheless, the nature of businesses’internal and external environment is becoming ever more fast-paced, making the ability to manage change increasingly critical for German SMEs to establish competitive advantage.

description: This sheet provides data from three-phase Ostwald ripening simulation results for gas bubble in a 2D homogeneous porous medium. In this workbook, we use 'O' and 'W' to refer to oil and water phase.
 Sheet names for three phase simulation results have the format: sim__ _. Here, X and Y are placeholders for 'O' and 'W'. The sequence of 'O' and 'W' in the sheet name reflects which phase is on the left and which is on the right side in the geometry. P is a placeholder for oil-water capillary pressure. N is placeholder for bubble size distribution. So, two sheets with same 'N' have the same bubble size distribution.
 The gas bubbles can be in contact with oil, water, or both oil and water. The column headings can be understood as follows: 1. P - Pressure of bubble - average pressure of bubbles in the system 2. Vol - Volume of a bubble 3. _O - Bubble is surrounded by oil 4. _W - Bubble is surrounded by water 5. _OW - Bubble is surrounded by oil and water 6. _{1-9} - The digit at the end is number of the bubble having similar gas-liquid interface
 Sheet names for three phase analytical results have the format: Ana_ . Here, P is a placeholder for oil-water capillary pressure.
 Time is in seconds, pressure is in Pascals, and volume is in 10-9 m2.
 The data corresponds to the paper: "Pore-scale Ostwald ripening of gas bubbles in the presence of oil and water in porous media", and the sheet names reflect the section number of the article. For further details of the model and simulations, refer to the published article in 'Journal of Colloid and Interface Science'.
Mini-Workshop: Mathematics of Differential Growth, Morphogenesis, and Pattern Selection

description: Living structures are highly heterogeneous systems that consist of distinct regions made up of characteristic cell types with a specific structural organization. During evolution, development, disease, or environmental adaptation each region may grow at its own characteristic rate. Differential growth creates a balanced interplay between tension and compression and plays a critical role in biological function. In plant physiology, typical every-day examples include the petioles of celery, caladium, or rhubarb with a slower growing compressive outer surface and a faster growing tensile inner core. In developmental biology, differential growth is critical to the organogenesis of various structures including the gut, the heart, and the brain. From a structural point of view, these phenomena are close associated with instabilities, of twisting, looping, folding, and wrinkling. From a mathematical point of view, the governing equations of organogenesis are highly nonlinear and often characterized through multiple bifurcation points. Bifurcation is critical in symmetry breaking, pattern formation, and selection of shape. While biologists are studying differential growth, morphogenesis, and pattern selection merely by observation, our goal in this workshop is to explore, discuss, and advance the fundamental theory of differential growth to characterize morphogenesis and pattern selection by mathematical modeling. This workshop will bring together scientists with similar interests and complementary backgrounds in applied mathematics, mathematical biology, developmental biology, plant biology, dynamical systems, biophysics, biomechanics, and clinical sciences. We will identify common features of growth phenomena in living systems with the overall objectives to establish a unified mathematical theory for growing systems and to identify the necessary mathematical tools to address challenging questions in biology and medicine.

description: We present a near-optimal quantum dynamical decoupling scheme that eliminates general decoherence of a qubit to order n using O(n^2) pulses, an exponential decrease in pulses over all previous decoupling methods. Numerical simulations of a qubit coupled to a spin bath demonstrate the superior performance of the new pulse sequences.

description: Modern sugarcane cultivars (Saccharum spontaneum x Saccharum officinarum) produce 80% of the world's sugar. Sugarcane is one of the main tropical crops, and highly efficient biomass producer in the form of sucrose and fiber, which can be turned into ethanol and electricity, respectively. The sugarcane genome is very complex with a monoploid genome of 900Mbp, highly polymorphic, with high levels of ploidy and showing also aneuploidy. Advances in sequencing technologies have allowed the generation of two draft genomes, still highly fragmented, of the Brazilian commercial genotype SP80-3280, that have not been compared and integrated to date. We have identified the putative full and nonredundant set of transcripts coding for Transcription Associated Proteins (TAPs) and Carbohydrate Active Enzymes (CAZymes) in the genome of the cultivar SP80-3280, exploiting two available draft genome sequences for the same cultivar. We are further exploting public RNASeq dataset from sugarcane to identify clusters of co-expressed genes involving TAPs and CAZymes. So far, we divided TAPs into Transcription Factors (TFs) families and Other Transcriptional Regulators (OTRs), we found 99 families of TFs, represented by 10.724 genes and 96 families of OTRs represented by 2.709 genes. Similarly, we identified 149 families of CAZymes represented by 12.473 genes.

description: The hematopoietic system has a highly regulated and complex structure in which cells are organized to successfully create and maintain new blood cells. It is known that feedback regulation is crucial to tightly control this system, but the specific mechanisms by which control is exerted are not completely understood. In this work, we aim to uncover the underlying mechanisms in hematopoiesis by conducting perturbation experiments, where animal subjects are exposed to an external agent in order to observe the system response and evolution. We have developed a novel Bayesian hierarchical framework for optimal design of perturbation experiments and proper analysis of the data collected. We use a deterministic model that accounts for feedback and feedforward regulation on cell division rates and self-renewal probabilities. A significant obstacle is that the experimental data are not longitudinal, rather each data point corresponds to a different animal. We overcome this difficulty by modelling the unobserved cellular levels as latent variables. We then use principles of Bayesian experimental design to optimally distribute time points at which the hematopoietic cells are quantified. We evaluate our approach using synthetic and real experimental data and show that an optimal design can lead to better estimates of model parameters.

description: In this paper, we study the hyperbolic geometry of noncommutative balls generated by the joint operator radius $ω_ρ$, $ρ\in (0,\infty]$, for $n$-tuples of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space. In particular, $ω_1$ is the operator norm, $ω_2$ is the joint numerical radius, and $ω_\infty$ is the joint spectral radius. We provide mapping theorems, von Neumann inequalities, and Schwarz type lemmas for free holomorphic functions on noncommutative balls, with respect to the hyperbolic metric $δ_ρ$, the Carath\' eodory metric $d_K$, and the joint operator radius $ω_ρ$.
