Strings and the Holographic Description of Asymptotically de Sitter Spaces
Creators: name: Halyo, Edi
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Asymptotically de Sitter spaces can be described by Euclidean boundary theories with entropies given by the modified Cardy--Verlinde formula. We show that the Cardy--Verlinde formula describes a string with a rescaled tension which in fact is a string at the stretched cosmological horizon as seen from the boundary. The temperature of the boundary theory is the rescaled Hagedorn temperature of the string. Our results agree with an alternative description of asymptotically de Sitter spaces in terms of strings on the stretched horizon. The relation between the two descriptions is given by the large gravitational redshift between the boundary and the stretched horizon and a shift in energy.

The truncated Lindley distribution with applications in astrophysics
Creators: name: Zaninetti, Lorenzo
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper reviews the Lindley distribution and then introduces the scale and the double truncation. The unknown parameters of the truncated Lindley distribution are evaluated with the maximum likelihood estimators. An application of the Lindley distribution with scale is done to the initial mass function for stars. The magnitude version of the Lindley distribution with scale is applied to the luminosity function for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxies and to the photometric maximum of the 2MASS Redshift Survey (2MRS) galaxies. The truncated Lindley luminosity function allows us to model the Malquist bias of the 2MRS galaxies.

Charge transport through quantum dots via time-varying tunnel couplings
Creators: name: Renzoni, F.
name: Brandes, T.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We describe a novel mechanism for charge pumping through tunnel-coupled quantum dots in the regime of strong Coulomb blockade. The quantum state of an additional electron within the structure is steered by changing the tunneling couplings between neighbouring dots. Appropriate tailoring of the interdot tunneling rates allows to design the instantaneous eigenvalues of the system Hamiltonian. A combination of adiabatic following and Landau-Zener tunneling results in the transfer of charge from one dot to the neighbouring one. Coupling to electron reservoirs via weak tunnel-barriers then allows to implement an electron pump.

description: Dedifferentiation is the process by which terminally differentiated cells acquire the properties of stem cells. During mouse skin wound healing, the differentiated Gata6-lineage positive cells of the sebaceous duct are able to dedifferentiate. Here we have integrated lineage tracing and single-cell mRNA sequencing to uncover the underlying mechanism. Gata6-lineage positive and negative epidermal stem cells in wounds are transcriptionally indistinguishable. Furthermore, in contrast to reprogramming of induced pluripotent stem cells, the same genes are expressed in the epidermal dedifferentiation and differentiation trajectories, indicating that dedifferentiation does not involve adoption of a new cell state. We demonstrate that dedifferentiation is not only induced by wounding, but also by retinoic acid treatment or mechanical expansion of the epidermis. In all three cases, dedifferentiation is dependent on the master transcription factor c-Myc. Mechanotransduction and actin-cytoskeleton remodelling are key features of dedifferentiation. Our study elucidates the molecular basis of epidermal dedifferentiation, which may be generally applicable to adult tissues.

description: Abstract: Background: POLG, located on nuclear chromosome 15, encodes the DNA polymerase γ(Pol γ). Pol γ is responsible for the replication and repair of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Pol γ is the only DNA polymerase found in mitochondria for most animal cells. Mutations in POLG are the most common single-gene cause of diseases of mitochondria and have been mapped over the coding region of the POLG ORF. Results: Using PhyloCSF to survey alternative reading frames, we found a conserved coding signature in an alternative frame in exons 2 and 3 of POLG, herein referred to as ORF-Y that arose de novo in placental mammals. Using the synplot2 program, synonymous site conservation was found among mammals in the region of the POLG ORF that is overlapped by ORF-Y. Ribosome profiling data revealed that ORF-Y is translated and that initiation likely occurs at a CUG codon. Inspection of an alignment of mammalian sequences containing ORF-Y revealed that the CUG codon has a strong initiation context and that a well-conserved predicted RNA stem-loop begins 14 nucleotides downstream. Such features are associated with enhanced initiation at near-cognate non-AUG codons. Reanalysis of the Kim et al. (2014) draft human proteome dataset yielded two unique peptides that map unambiguously to ORF-Y. An additional conserved uORF, herein referred to as ORF-Z, was also found in exon 2 of POLG. Lastly, we surveyed Clinvar variants that are synonymous with respect to the POLG ORF and found that most of these variants cause amino acid changes in ORF-Y or ORF-Z. Conclusions: We provide evidence for a novel coding sequence, ORF-Y, that overlaps the POLG ORF. Ribosome profiling and mass spectrometry data show that ORF-Y is expressed. PhyloCSF and synplot2 analysis show that ORF-Y is subject to strong purifying selection. An abundance of disease-correlated mutations that map to exons 2 and 3 of POLG but also affect ORF-Y provides potential clinical significance to this finding.

description: Carbon nanotubes provide a new class of molecular wires that display new and exciting mesoscopic transport properties. We provide a detailed theoretical description for transport in multi-wall nanotubes, where both disorder and strong interactions are important. The interplay of both aspects leads to a particularly effective intrinsic Coulomb blockade for tunneling. The relation to recent experiments is discussed.

 Radhakrishnan (1999) described Bactrocera digressa based on two females collected from Salem district, Tamil Nadu. The diagnostic characters of the species are reddish brown scutum, bifid aculeus tip, absence of acrostichal and anterior supra-alar setae. Later, Drew and Raghu (2002) described Bactrocera (Daculus) yercaudiae based on males collected from Yercaud, Tamil Nadu and Bangalore which responded to cue lure. Perusal of original description of the two species showed complete congruence of characters except costal band, which was mentioned as confluent with vein R 2+ 3 in Bactrocera digressa and slightly overlapping R in B. yercaudiae. Material mentioned above which were keyed out as Bactrocera yercaudiae were examined to confirm the identity. Examination of aculeus tip of the females revealed that it has a bifid aculeus and all the characters are in concordance with that of B. digressa except for a slightly overlapping costal band which might have been overlooked by Radhakrishnan (1999) because it is very faint beyond vein R 2+3. Hence we propose B. yercaudiae as a junior synonymn of B. digressa. Since all the Asian species in subgenus Daculus are aberrant Bactrocera s.str. and true Daculus are African, B. digressa is retained in subgenus Bactrocera (Copeland et al., 2004). As per ICZN rules, Bactrocera digressa Radhakrishnan is the valid name. Three females have been reared from fruits of Alangium lamarkii collected from Yercaud, Tamil Nadu and are deposited in BMNH (Ian M. White, pers. comm.)

description: The Kuramoto model, despite its popularity as a mean-field theory for many synchronization phenomenon of oscillatory systems, is limited to a first-order harmonic coupling of phases. For higher-order coupling, there only exists a low-dimensional theory in the thermodynamic limit. In this paper, we extend the formulation used by Watanabe and Strogatz to obtain a low-dimensional description of a system of arbitrary size of identical oscillators coupled all-to-all via their higher-order modes. To demonstrate an application of the formulation, we use a second harmonic globally coupled model, with a mean-field equal to the square of the Kuramoto mean-field. This model is known to exhibit asymmetrical clustering in previous numerical studies. We try to explain the phenomenon of asymmetrical clustering using the analytical theory developed here, as well as discuss certain phenomena not observed at the level of first-order harmonic coupling.

description: We formulate a prescription for computing Minkowski-space correlators from AdS/CFT correspondence. This prescription is shown to give the correct retarded propagators at zero temperature in four dimensions, as well as at finite temperature in the two-dimensional conformal field theory dual to the BTZ black hole. Using the prescription, we calculate the Chern-Simons diffusion constant of the finite-temperature N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in the strong coupling limit. We explain why the quasinormal frequencies of the asymptotically AdS background correspond to the poles of the retarded Green's function of the boundary conformal field theory.

description: We investigate recent claims for a detection of "Hawking points" (positions on the sky with unusually large temperature gradients between rings) in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature maps at the 99.98% confidence level. We find that, after marginalization over the size of the rings, an excess is detected in Planck satellite maps at only an 87% confidence level (i.e., little more than 1$σ$). Therefore, we conclude that there is no statistically significant evidence for the presence of Hawking points in the CMB.

description: We calculate the universal ratios $R_{2k}$ of renormalized coupling constants $g_{2k}$ entering the critical equation of state for the generalized Heisenberg (three-dimensional $n$-vector) model. Renormalization group (RG) expansions of $R_8$ and $R_{10}$ for arbitrary $n$ are found in the four-loop and three-loop approximations respectively. Universal octic coupling $R_8^*$ is estimated for physical values of spin dimensionality $n = 0, 1, 2, 3$ and for $n = 4,...64$ to get an idea about asymptotic behavior of $R_8^*$. Its numerical values are obtained by means of the resummation of the RG series and within the pseudo-$\varepsilon$ expansion approach. Regarding $R_{10}$ our calculations show that three-loop RG and pseudo-$\varepsilon$ expansions possess big and rapidly growing coefficients for physical values of $n$ what prevents getting fair numerical estimates.

description: We present the detection and analysis of line index variations in the pulsating sdB star PG 1605+072. We have found a strong dependence of line index amplitude on Balmer line order, with high-order Balmer line amplitudes up to 10 times larger than H-beta. Using a simple model, we have found that the line index may not only be dependent on temperature, as is usually assumed for oscillating stars, but also on surface gravity. This information will provide another set of observables that can be used for mode identification of sdBs.

description: Abstract: Background: New opportunities to record, collate, and analyze routine patient data have prompted optimism about the potential of learning health systems. However, real-life examples of such systems remain rare and few have been exposed to study. We aimed to examine the views of design stakeholders on designing and implementing a US-based registry-enabled care and learning system for cystic fibrosis (RCLS-CF). Methods: We conducted a two-phase qualitative study with stakeholders involved in designing, implementing, and using the RCLS-CF. First, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 19 program personnels involved in design and delivery of the program. We then undertook 11 follow-up interviews. Analysis of interviews was based on the constant comparative method, supported by NVivo software. Results: The organizing principle for the RCLS-CF was a shift to more partnership-based relationships between patients and clinicians, founded in values of co-production, and facilitated by technology-enabled data sharing. Participants proposed that, for the system to be successful, the data it collects must be both clinically useful and meaningful to patients and clinicians. They suggested that the prerequisites included a technological infrastructure capable of supporting data entry and joint decision-making in an accessible way, and a set of social conditions, including willingness from patients and clinicians alike to work together in new ways that build on the expertise of both parties. Follow-up interviews highlighted some of the obstacles, including technical challenges and practical constraints on refiguring relationships between clinicians and patients. Conclusions: The values and vision underlying the RCLS-CF were shared and clearly and consistently articulated by design stakeholders. The challenges to realization were often not at the level of principle, but were both practical and social in character. Lessons from this study may be useful to other systems looking to harness the power of “big data” registries, including patient-reported data, for care, research, and quality improvement.

 Diagnosis. This species is close to T. finita on wing pattern but much bigger. It differs from that species in that the apex of the forewing is more falcate; the postmedial line is double below CuA 1; a pale gray terminal line is present; the patches between M 3 and CuA 2, especially their dark center spots, are much smaller. In the male genitalia, two lobes of the uncus are nearly triangular, apart from each other, with the posterior margins oblique. But in T. finita, the lobes of the uncus are nearly quadrate and close to each other, with the posterior margins truncate.

 Remarks. Chu & Wang (1988, 1991) recorded T. adelpha Swinhoe from Tibet (Zham, Nyalam) and Yunnan (Lijiang). We have reexamined the materials labelled as “ adelpha ”, and have concluded that the specimens from Tibet (Zham, Nyalam) are T. sadana (Moore), and the specimen from Yunnan (Lijiang) is T. finita Watson. So T. adelpha Swinhoe is not at present known to occur in China.

description: Introduction: Although advance care planning may be beneficial for older adults in the last year of life, its relevance following an emergency hospitalisation requires further investigation. This study quantifies the one-year mortality outcomes of all emergency admissions for patients aged 70+ years and explores patient views on the value of advance care planning following acute hospitalisation. Method: This mixed methods study used a two-stage approach: firstly, a quantitative longitudinal cohort study exploring the one-year mortality of patients aged 70+ admitted as an emergency to a large multi-centre hospital cohort; secondly, a qualitative semi-structured interview study gathering information on patient views of advance care planning. Results: There were 14,260 emergency admissions for 70+-year olds over a 12-month period. One-year mortality for admissions across all conditions was 22.6%. The majority of these deaths (59.3%) were within 3 months of admission. Binary logistic regression analysis indicated higher one-year mortality with increasing age and male sex. Interviews with 20 patients resulted in one superordinate theme, “Planning for health and wellbeing in the spectrum of illness”. Sub-themes entitled (1) Advance care planning benefitting healthcare for physical and psycho-social health, (2) Contemplation of physical deterioration death and dying and 3) Collaborating with healthcare professionals to undertake advance care planning, suggest that views of advance care planning are shaped by experiences of acute hospitalisation. Conclusion: Since approximately 1 in 5 patients aged 70+ admitted to hospital as an emergency are in the last year of life, acute hospitalisation can act as a trigger for tailored ACP. Older hospitalised patients believe that advance care planning can benefit physical and psychosocial health and that discussions should consider a spectrum of possibilities, from future health to the potential of chronic illness, disability and death. In this context, patients may look for expertise from healthcare professionals for planning their future care.

description: Today we are moving into a world of economic justification, optimal resource allocation and public opinion recognition. A world where there is a rationale to further explore and develop the contingent valuation method (CVM) for valuing quasi-private goods. In this paper, the traditional CVM is adapted to value agricultural information services provided free of direct charges by private and government sources, in the high rainfall, sheep producing region of Western Australia. The study is designed to ensure the survey sample and the questionnaire itself do not introduce significant biases. The traditional CVM terminology, willingness to pay" is replaced by "maximum price" and "maximum value". Valuation questions used in the survey are based on hypothetical scenarios however, a payment vehicle is not used. To assess these changes the validity of the adapted CVM is discussed.
Absorption cross section in de Sitter space

description: We study the wave equation for a minimally coupled massive scalar in three-dimensional de Sitter space. We compute the absorption cross section to investigate its cosmological horizon in the southern diamond. Although the absorption cross section is not defined exactly, we can be determined it from the fact that the low-energy $s(j=0)$-wave absorption cross section for a massless scalar is given by the area of the cosmological horizon. On the other hand, the low-temperature limit of $j\not=0$-mode absorption cross section is useful for extracting information surrounding the cosmological horizon. Finally we mention a computation of the absorption cross section on the CFT-side using the dS/CFT correspondence.

description: We present a solid-state implementation of ultrafast conditional quantum gates. Our proposal for a quantum-computing device is based on the spin degrees of freedom of electrons confined in semiconductor quantum dots, thus benefiting from relatively long decoherence times. More specifically, combining Pauli blocking effects with properly tailored ultrafast laser pulses, we are able to obtain sub-picosecond spin-dependent switching of the Coulomb interaction, which is the essence of our conditional phase-gate proposal. This allows us to realize {\it a fast two qubit gate which does not translate into fast decoherence times} and paves the road for an all-optical spin-based quantum computer.

description: Abstract: Background: A comprehensive understanding of the pre-existing genetic variation in genes associated with antibiotic resistance in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) is needed to accurately interpret whole-genome sequencing data for genotypic drug susceptibility testing (DST). Methods: We investigated mutations in 92 genes implicated in resistance to 21 anti-tuberculosis drugs using the genomes of 405 phylogenetically diverse MTBC strains. The role of phylogenetically informative mutations was assessed by routine phenotypic DST data for the first-line drugs isoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide from a separate collection of over 7000 clinical strains. Selected mutations/strains were further investigated by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) testing. Results: Out of 547 phylogenetically informative mutations identified, 138 were classified as not correlating with resistance to first-line drugs. MIC testing did not reveal a discernible impact of a Rv1979c deletion shared by M. africanum lineage 5 strains on resistance to clofazimine. Finally, we found molecular evidence that some MTBC subgroups may be hyper-susceptible to bedaquiline and clofazimine by different loss-of-function mutations affecting a drug efflux pump subunit (MmpL5). Conclusions: Our findings underline that the genetic diversity in MTBC has to be studied more systematically to inform the design of clinical trials and to define sound epidemiologic cut-off values (ECOFFs) for new and repurposed anti-tuberculosis drugs. In that regard, our comprehensive variant catalogue provides a solid basis for the interpretation of mutations in genotypic as well as in phenotypic DST assays.

description: We study the occurrence of a strong first-order electroweak phase transition in composite Higgs models. Minimal constructions realising this scenario are based on the coset SO(6)/SO(5) which delivers an extended Higgs sector with an additional scalar. In such models, a two-step phase transition can be obtained with the scalar singlet acquiring a vacuum expectation value at intermediate temperatures. A bonus of the Nambu-Goldstone boson nature of the scalar-sector dynamics is the presence of non-renormalisable Higgs interactions that can trigger additional sources of CP violation needed to realise baryogenesis at the electroweak scale. Another interesting aspect of this scenario is the generation of gravitational wave signatures that can be observed at future space-based interferometers.

description: A new fluorescence probe 1 for sulfur dioxide derivatives has been developed which acts through nucleophilic addition of the derivatives and shows high stability, specificity, and sensitivity. In the presence of SO2 derivatives, the fluorescence intensity of probe 1 significantly decreases within a short time period of 40 s, along with a low detection limit of 0.32 µM. Fluorescence imaging capability of probe 1 was also investigated, showing clear detection of SO2 derivatives in living cells. The results indicate that this probe has a great potential for the detection of SO2 derivatives in broad biological and relevant samples.

description: In this paper, we introduce a novel approach to evaluate the risk of re-identification of individuals associated with format-preserving data release strategies, focusing on three strategies: data minimization (i.e. through data removal using random sampling and data Shapley values), data anonymization (i.e. through k-anonymity), and data synthesis (i.e. through CTGAN and TVAE generative models). More precisely, our approach consists in simulating a security game in which (1) an attacker performs singling-out attacks as outlined in data protection regulations and (2) an evaluator scores attacks based on the linkability of records and the information gain obtained by the attacker. In addition, we further enhance our approach by simulating attacks as a cooperative game, in which the value of the attackers’ information resources is determined using the Shapley value borrowed from game theory. Re-identification Shapley value is proposed as a method to measure the level of re-identification potential of each feature in a dataset when combined with other features. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach using three datasets commonly used in the privacy literature. Overall, our work contributes to a better understanding of the inherent trade-offs that exist between data privacy and data utility in organizations.

description: Abstract: Silencing of transposable elements (TEs) is established by small RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). Maintenance of silencing is then based on a combination of RdDM and RNA-independent mechanisms involving DNA methyltransferase MET1 and chromodomain DNA methyltransferases (CMTs). Involvement of RdDM, according to this model should decrease with TE age but here we show a different pattern in tomato and Arabidopsis. In these species the CMTs silence long terminal repeat (LTR) transposons in the distal chromatin that are younger than those affected by RdDM. To account for these findings we propose that, after establishment of primary RdDM as in the original model, there is an RNA-independent maintenance phase involving CMTs followed by secondary RdDM. This progression of epigenetic silencing in the gene-rich distal chromatin is likely to influence the transcriptome either in cis or in trans depending on whether the mechanisms are RNA-dependent or -independent.

description: In vacuum string field theory, the sliver state solution has been proposed as a candidate of a D-brane configuration. Physical observables associated with this solution, such as its energy density and the tachyon mass, are written in terms of the Neumann coefficients. These observables, though vanish naively due to twist symmetry, acquire non-vanishing values arising from their singular behavior. Therefore, this phenomenon is called twist anomaly. In this paper we present an analytical derivation of these physical observables with the help of the star algebra spectroscopy. We also identify in our derivation the origin of the twist anomaly in the finite-size matrix regularization.

Distribution of star-forming complexes in dwarf irregular galaxies

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study the distribution of bright star-forming complexes in a homogeneous sample of 72 late-type (``irregular'') dwarf galaxies located within the 10 Mpc volume. Star-forming complexes are identified as bright lumps in B-band galaxy images and isolated by means of the unsharp-masking method. For the sample as a whole the radial number distribution of bright lumps largely traces the underlying exponential-disk light profiles, but peaks at a 10 percent smaller scale length. Moreover, the presence of a tail of star forming regions out to at least six optical scale lengths provides evidence against a systematic star formation truncation within that galaxy extension. Considering these findings, we apply a scale length-independent concentration index, taking into account the implied non-uniform random spread of star formation regions throughout the disk. The number profiles frequently manifest a second, minor peak at about two scale lengths. Relying on a two-dimensional stochastic self-propagating star formation model, we show these secondary peaks to be consistent with triggered star formation; for a few of the brighter galaxies a peculiar peak distribution is observed that is conceivably due to the onset of shear provided by differential rotation. On scales between 100 and 1000 pc, and by taking into account exponential-disk structure, bright lumps reveal cluster dimensions between 1.3 and 2, with a weak trend to higher dimensions for brighter galaxies. Interpreting cluster dimension in terms of porosity of a self-similar intragalactic medium, we derive a relation between current star formation rate, scale length, and porosity.

description: These are supplementary files for our article entitled "Recurrent Events Analysis with Piece-wise exponential Additive Mixed Models".
Within each of the folders below, we have simulate datasets under eight different scenarios and analyze with both the Cox proportional hazards shared frailty model and the piece-wise exponential mixed-effects model. The folders each include the R project file, which can be first opened. Then the script can be opened.
Generating the simulated data is slower for certain conditions, and analyzing them for 500 datasets under eight scenarios can take a long time (up to a couple days for the conditional gap-time data, for example).
The simulated data (simdat) as well as the analysis results (dat) is already saved in the workspace file. We recommend loading the workspace and then evaluating the simulated data.
Gender-preserving Debiasing for Pre-trained Word Embeddings

description: Word embeddings learnt from massive text collections have demonstrated significant levels of discriminative biases such as gender, racial or ethnic biases, which in turn bias the down-stream NLP applications that use those word embeddings. Taking gender-bias as a working example, we propose a debiasing method that preserves non-discriminative gender-related information, while removing stereotypical discriminative gender biases from pre-trained word embeddings. Specifically, we consider four types of information: \emph{feminine}, \emph{masculine}, \emph{gender-neutral} and \emph{stereotypical}, which represent the relationship between gender vs. bias, and propose a debiasing method that (a) preserves the gender-related information in feminine and masculine words, (b) preserves the neutrality in gender-neutral words, and (c) removes the biases from stereotypical words. Experimental results on several previously proposed benchmark datasets show that our proposed method can debias pre-trained word embeddings better than existing SoTA methods proposed for debiasing word embeddings while preserving gender-related but non-discriminative information.
