description: In Central Asia, community water governance institutions emerged and prevailed for a long time. By employing an analytical modelling approach using variants of the evolutionary Hawk-Dove game, we scrutinise three epochs' (pre-Tsarist, Tsarist and Soviet) coordination mechanisms and qualitatively compare them in the efficiency spectrum. We find that the pre-Tsarist community water governance setting, due to its synergetic and pluralistic aspects, was associated with higher efficiency than the Tsarist and Soviet periods' settings. The pre-Tsarist community arrangement linked irrigation duties with benefits. Our analytical model reveals how the Tsarist Russian regulation that replaced the election-sanctioning element with a de-facto system appointing the irrigation staff and paying them fixed wages corrupted the well-established pre-Tsarist decentralised water governance. We term this move the "Kaufman drift". Resulting inadequacies in the water governance could have been averted either by restoring the community mechanism's election-sanctioning attribute or else with an alternative approach such as privatising water resources. With the use of the "Krivoshein game," we produce an alternative scenario for the region where we envisage the potential consequences of the water privatisation. Modelling history might not disentangle the complex nature of water governance evolution fully, however, the heuristics we use in the analysis assist in guiding the diagnosis of the matter and its solution. This makes our study well-timed for contemporary Central Asia. The analyses assess current water management's chances to return to ancient principles of election-sanctioning and perspectives of private irrigation water rights.

description: The growing popularity of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications in cellular networks is driving the need to optimize networks based on the characteristics of M2M, which are significantly different from the requirements that current networks are designed to meet. First, M2M requires large number of short sessions as opposed to small number of long lived sessions required by the human generated traffic. Second, M2M constitutes a number of battery operated devices that are static in locations such as basements and tunnels, and need to transmit at elevated powers compared to the traditional devices. Third, replacing or recharging batteries of such devices may not be feasible. All these differences highlight the importance of a systematic framework to study the power and energy optimal system design in the regime of interest for M2M, which is the main focus of this paper. For a variety of coordinated and uncoordinated transmission strategies, we derive results for the optimal transmit power, energy per bit, and the maximum load supported by the base station, leading to the following design guidelines: (i) frequency division multiple access (FDMA), including equal bandwidth allocation, is sum-power optimal in the asymptotically low spectral efficiency regime, (ii) while FDMA is the best practical strategy overall, uncoordinated code division multiple access (CDMA) is almost as good when the base station is lightly loaded, (iii) the value of optimization within FDMA is in general not significant in the regime of interest for M2M.

description: We present a combination of high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope and wide-field ground-based and Galaxy Evolution Explorer data of the Galactic Globular Cluster M10 (NGC6254). By using this large data-set we determined the center of gravity of the cluster and we built its density profile from star counts over its entire radial extension. We find that the density profile is well reproduced by a single-mass King model with structural parameters c=1.41 and r_c=41". We also studied the Blue Straggler Star population and its radial distribution. We count a total number of 120 BSS within the tidal radius. Their radial distribution is bimodal: highly peaked in the cluster center, decreasing at intermediate distances and rising again outwards. We discuss these results in the context of the dynamical clock scheme presented by Ferraro et al. (2012) and of recent results about the radial distribution of binary systems in this cluster.

description: The invasive spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula (White), was first detected in southeastern Pennsylvania in 2014 and has since expanded its range to ten more states. Since fall 2017, we have found L. delicatula killed by Beauveria bassiana in multiple counties in southeastern Pennsylvania. Mycoinsecticides containing strains of entomopathogenic fungi are commercialised worldwide and could be a tool for managing L. delicatula populations. In 2020 we conducted laboratory bioassays on L. delicatula using five mycoinsecticides, including four strains of B. bassiana and one strain of Cordyceps javanica. Mycoinsecticides were directly applied to all L. delicatula nymphal instars and adults at three different stages of reproductive maturity. All B. bassiana mycoinsecticides were effective at killing L. delicatula under optimal conditions in the laboratory. Lycorma delicatula nymphs exposed to B. bassiana mycoinsecticides displayed mean survival times of 6.3–6.9 days and 90–93% mortality after 14 days, and adults displayed mean survival times of 7.2–9.8 days with 82–99% mortality after 14 days. PFR-97 killed L. delicatula at a slower rate than all B. bassiana mycoinsecticides tested with 43–57% mortality after 14 days. Adult L. delicatula males died significantly faster than females for all treatments except BioCeres.

We show advantages of the new semantics, provide motivating examples based on sensor networks, and analyze model checking complexity.

Non-resonant magnetohydrodynamics streaming instability near magnetized relativistic shocks

description: We present in this paper both a linear study and numerical relativistic MHD simulations of the non-resonant streaming instability occurring in the precursor of relativistic shocks. In the shock front restframe, we perform a linear analysis of this instability in a likely configuration for ultra-relativistic shock precursors. This considers magneto-acoustic waves having a wave vector perpendicular to the shock front and the large scale magnetic field. Our linear analysis is achieved without any assumption on the shock velocity and is thus valid for all velocity regimes. In order to check our calculation, we also perform relativistic MHD simulations describing the propagation of the aforementioned magneto-acoustic waves through the shock precursor. The numerical calculations confirm our linear analysis, which predicts that the growth rate of the instability is maximal for ultra-relativistic shocks and exhibits a wavenumber dependence $\propto k_x^{1/2}$. Our numerical simulations also depict the saturation regime of the instability where we show that the magnetic amplification is moderate but nevertheless significant ($δB/B\leq 10$). This latter fact may explain the presence of strong turbulence in the vicinity of relativistic magnetized shocks. Our numerical approach also introduces a convenient means to handle isothermal (ultra-)relativistic MHD conditions.

description: The active young protostar DG Tau has an extended jet that has been well studied at radio, optical, and X-ray wavelengths. We report sensitive new VLA full-polarization observations of the core and jet between 5 GHz and 8 GHz. Our high angular resolution observation at 8 GHz clearly shows an unpolarized inner jet with a size 42 AU (0.35") extending along a position angle similar to the optical-X ray outer jet. Using our nearly coeval 2012 VLA observations, we find a spectral-index=+0.46+/-0.05, which combined with the lack of polarization, is consistent with bremsstrahlung (free-free) emission, with no evidence for a non-thermal coronal component. By identifying the end of the radio jet as the optical depth unity surface, and calculating the resulting emission measure, we find our radio results are in agreement with previous optical line studies of electron density and consequent mass-loss rate. We also detect a weak radio knot at 5 GHz located 7" from the base of the jet, coincident with the inner radio knot detected by Rodriguez et al. (2012) in 2009 but at lower surface brightness. We interpret this as due to expansion of post-shock ionized gas in the three years between observations.

Chemical Freeze-Out and Higher Order Multiplicity Moments

description: We calculate the non-normalized moments of the particle multiplicity within the framework of the hadron resonance gas (HRG) model. At finite chemical potential $μ$, a non-monotonic behavior is observed in the thermal evolution of third order moment (skewness $S$) and the higher order ones as well. Among others, this observation likely reflects dynamical fluctuations and strong correlations. The signatures of non-monotonicity in the normalized fourth order moment (kurtosis $κ$) and its products get very clear. Based on these findings, we introduce a novel condition characterizing the universal freeze-out curve. The chemical freeze-out parameters $T$ and $μ$ are described by vanishing $κ\, σ^2$ or equivalently $m_4=3\,χ^2$, where $σ$, $χ$ and $m_4$ are the standard deviation, susceptibility and fourth order moment, respectively. The fact that the HRG model is not able to release information about criticality related to the confinement and chiral dynamics should not veil the observations related to the chemical freeze-out. Recent lattice QCD studies strongly advocate the main conclusion of the present paper.

description: We consider non-reversible perturbations of reversible diffusions that do not alter the invariant distribution and we ask whether there exists an optimal perturbation such that the rate of convergence to equilibrium is maximized. We solve this problem for the case of linear drift by proving the existence of such optimal perturbations and by providing an easily implementable algorithm for constructing them. We discuss in particular the role of the prefactor in the exponential convergence estimate. Our rigorous results are illustrated by numerical experiments.

description: Symmetry protected topological (SPT) states are bulk gapped states with gapless edge excitations protected by certain symmetries. The SPT phases in free fermion systems, like topological insulators, can be classified by the K-theory. However, it is not known what SPT phases exist in general interacting systems. In this paper, we present a systematic way to construct SPT phases in interacting bosonic systems, which allows us to identify many new SPT phases, including three bosonic versions of topological insulators in three dimension and one in two dimension protected by particle number conservation and time reversal symmetry. Just as group theory allows us to construct 230 crystal structures in 3D, we find that group cohomology theory allows us to construct different interacting bosonic SPT phases in any dimensions and for any symmetry groups. In particular, we are going to show how topological terms in the path integral description of the system can be constructed from nontrivial group cohomology classes, giving rise to exactly soluble Hamiltonians, explicit ground state wave functions and symmetry protected gapless edge excitations.

description: We present results of the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G355.6-0.0 observed with Suzaku. We resolved the diffuse emission detected with ASCA into two objects, G355.6-0.0 and a point-like source, Suzaku J173530-3236. The X-ray emission from G355.6-0.0 exhibits a center-filled morphology within the radio shell. The X-ray spectrum is well represented by a thin thermal plasma model with enhanced metal abundances. The spatial and spectral properties imply that G355.6-0.0 is a member of the mixed-morphology SNRs. The NH value of ~ 6 x 10^{22} cm^{-2} supports that G355.6-0.0 is a distant SNR. Suzaku J173530-3236 exhibits a hard X-ray spectrum with a strong Fe emission line, similar to those of cataclysmic variables. The NH value of ~ 3 x 10^{22} cm^{-2} is smaller than that of G355.6-0.0, and hence Suzaku J173530-3236 is located at the near side of G355.6-0.0.

description: We present results of model fits to afterglow data sets of GRB970508, GRB980703 and GRB070125, characterized by long and broadband coverage. The model assumes synchrotron radiation (including self-absorption) from a spherical adiabatic blast wave and consists of analytic flux prescriptions based on numerical results. For the first time it combines the accuracy of hydrodynamic simulations through different stages of the outflow dynamics with the flexibility of simple heuristic formulas. The prescriptions are especially geared towards accurate description of the dynamical transition of the outflow from relativistic to Newtonian velocities in an arbitrary power-law density environment. We show that the spherical model can accurately describe the data only in the case of GRB970508, for which we find a circumburst medium density consistent with a stellar wind. We investigate in detail the implied spectra and physical parameters of that burst. For the microphysics we show evidence for equipartition between the fraction of energy density carried by relativistic electrons and magnetic field. We also find that for the blast wave to be adiabatic, the fraction of electrons accelerated at the shock has to be smaller than 1. We present best-fit parameters for the afterglows of all three bursts, including uncertainties in the parameters of GRB970508, and compare the inferred values to those obtained by different authors.

description: Nishioka and Kusaka [J. Chem. Phys. 96 (1992) 5370 (1992)] showed that the commonly used formula, W = n(μ^α-μ^β) + γA, for work of formation of critical nucleus is derived by integrating the isothermal Gibbs-Duhem relation for the incompressible nucleating phase, such as an incompressible liquid phase nucleation in a vapor phase. In their paper as wel as in a subsequent paper [Li, Nishioka, and Holcomb, J. Cryst. Growth 171 (1997) 259] it was stated that the commonly used formula was valid for an incompressible nucleating phase and no longer held for such as a bubble nucleation. In this paper, we will amend this statement; that is, the commonly used formula is shown to hold for incompressible parent phase, such as a bubble nucleation in an incompressible parent phase.

description: We propose a validity preserving translation from a subset of epistemic Alternating-time Temporal Logic (ATL) to epistemic Computation Tree Logic (CTL). The considered subset of epistemic ATL is known to have the finite model property and decidable model-checking. This entails the decidability of validity but the implied algorithm is unfeasible. Reducing the validity problem to that in a corresponding system of CTL makes the techniques for automated deduction for that logic available for the handling of the apparently more complex system of ATL.

description: An upper bound between the information gain and state reversibility of weak measurement was first developed by Y. K. Cheong and S. W. Lee [Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 150402 (2012)]. Their results are valid for arbitrary d-level quantum systems. In light of the commonly used qubit system in quantum information, a sharp tradeoff relation can be obtained. In this letter, this tradeoff relation is experimentally verified with polarization encoded single photons from a quantum dot. Furthermore, a complete traversal of weak measurement operators is realized, and the mapping to the least upper bound of this tradeoff relation is obtained. Our results complement the theoretical work and provide a universal ruler for the characterization of weak measurements.

description: Unity of household members is a conerstone of family development and gender equality is one of the key steps to accelerating sustainable development. Overall objective of this study was to analyze the contribution of Sugira Muryango Project in community behavior change, a case of male engagement in household responsibility, in Ngoma district, Rwanda. The study sought to answer three questions: (i) what are the contributions of Sugira Muryango Project to changing male’s behavior towards household responsibility? (ii) Are there current challenges facing male to involve in household responsibility? and (iii) What are the best practices introduced by Sugira Muryango in changing Males’ behavior towards household responsibilities? Total population were 325, calculated sample size to 180 and purposive, stratified and randon sampling were three sampling methods used. Findings showed that 34.4% of respondents testified that that creation of male champion groups approach contributed in changing males’ behavior towards household responsibilities. 90% of respondents appreciated approach of home visitation and 87.8% of respondents recognized creation of male saving and credit association approach as a good contributor of improving household development and changing living conditions of families. Findings also showed that, home visitation, males champions and creation of saving and credit association has high positive correlation with changing males behavior towards participating in household work (unpaid care work). Therefore, based on the interpretation of collected and analyzed data during this study which aimed to assess the contribution of Sugira Muryango to male engagement in household responsibilities in Eastern province, Ngoma district. The researcher concluded that, Sugira Muryango project has hugely contributed to male engagement in household responsibilities through three programs: creation males’ champions, household home visitation and saving groups and credit creation association and researcher recommended to disseminate these approaches to bigger population beyond scope of Sugira Muryango

description: Magnetic field relaxation is determined by both the field's geometry and its topology. For relaxation processes, however, it turns out that its topology is a much more stringent constraint. As quantifier for the topology we use magnetic helicity and test whether it is a stronger condition than the linking of field lines. Further, we search for evidence of other topological invariants, which give rise to further restrictions in the field's relaxation. We find that magnetic helicity is the sole determinant in most cases. Nevertheless, we see evidence for restrictions not captured through magnetic helicity.

description: Starting from a model Hamiltonian for the normal state of the topological insulator Bi2Se3, we construct a pseudospin basis for the single-particle wavefunctions. Considering weak superconducting pairing near the Fermi surface, we express the recently proposed superconducting order parameters for Cu doped Bi2Se3 in this basis. For the odd parity states, the d-vectors specifying the order parameter can have unusual momentum dependence for certain parameter regimes. Some peculiar results in the literature for surface states are discussed in light of the forms of these d(k)'s. Properties of the even parity states are also illuminated using this pseudospin basis. Results from this single-band description are compared with those from the full two-band model.

An O2If*/WN6 Star Catch in the Act in a Compact Hii region in the Starburst Cluster NGC 3603

description: In this paper I report the discovery of an O2If*/WN6 star probably still partially embedded in its parental cocoon in the star-burst cluster NGC 3603. From the observed size of the associated compact Hii region, it was possible to derive a probable dynamic age of no more than 600,000 years. Using the computed visual extinction value Av ~ 6 magnitudes, an absolute visual magnitude Mv =-5.7 mag is obtained, which for the assumed heliocentric distance of 7.6 kpc results in a bolometric luminosity of ~ 8x10^5 Lsun. Also from the V magnitude and the V-I color of the new star, and previous models for NGC3603's massive star population, we estimate its mass for the binary (O2If*/WN6 + O3If) and the single-star case (O2If*/WN6). In the former, it was found that the initial mass of each component possibly exceeded 80 Msun and 40 Msun, while in the latter MTT 58's initial mass possibly was in excess of 100 Msun.

Towards an Updatable Strategy Logic

description: This article is about temporal multi-agent logics. Several of these formalisms have been already presented (ATL-ATL*, ATLsc, SL). They enable to express the capacities of agents in a system to ensure the satisfaction of temporal properties. Particularly, SL and ATLsc enable several agents to interact in a context mixing the different strategies they play in a semantical game. We generalize this possibility by proposing a new formalism, Updating Strategy Logic (USL). In USL, an agent can also refine its own strategy. The gain in expressive power rises the notion of "sustainable capacities" for agents. USL is built from SL. It mainly brings to SL the two following modifications: semantically, the successor of a given state is not uniquely determined by the data of one choice from each agent. Syntactically, we introduce in the language an operator, called an "unbinder", which explicitely deletes the binding of a strategy to an agent. We show that USL is strictly more expressive than SL.

description: Magnetic susceptibility and microscopic magnetic model of the mineral clinoclase Cu3(AsO4)(OH)3 are reported. This material can be well described as a combination of two nonequivalent spin dimers with the sizable magnetic couplings of J about 700 K and J(D2) about 300 K. Based on density functional theory calculations, we pinpoint the location of dimers in the crystal structure. Surprisingly, the largest coupling operates between the structural Cu2O6 dimers. We investigate magnetostructural correlations in Cu2O6 structural dimers, by considering the influence of the hydrogen position on the magnetic coupling. Additionally, we establish the hydrogen positions that were not known so far and analyze the pattern of hydrogen bonding.

description: Dans cette contribution sont discutées deux dédicaces ptolémaïques du milieu du IIIe siècle, provenant respectivement d’ Halicarnasse et de Kaunos, en Carie, dans lesquelles Sarapis et Isis sont évoqués en compagnie du couple royal lagide. La comparaison de ces textes permet de mettre en valeur les développements diachroniques de la propagande royale ainsi que les choix des donateurs en relation avec la représentation de la dynastie, son unité interne et son rapport avec la sphère divine. De plus, le réexamen des pierres, des formules employées et des contextes historiques dans lesquels s’ inscrivent ces dédicaces offre l’ occasion de préciser ou de corriger la datation des deux textes. Pour l’ inscription d’ Halicarnasse, la date sous Ptolémée II peut être délimitée de manière plus précise en faveur de la partie finale du règne. En revanche, le texte de Kaunos, sur la base des données paléographiques et historiques, est à dater du règne de Ptolémée III voire de son successeur Ptolémée IV.

description: The deviation test belong to core tools in point process statistics, where hypotheses are typically tested considering differences between an empirical summary function and its expectation under the null hypothesis, which depend on a distance variable r. This test is a classical device to overcome the multiple comparison problem which appears since the functional differences have to be considered for a range of distances r simultaneously. The test has three basic ingredients: (i) choice of a suitable summary function, (ii) transformation of the summary function or scaling of the differences, and (iii) calculation of a global deviation measure. We consider in detail the construction of such tests both for stationary and finite point processes and show by two toy examples and a simulation study for the case of the random labelling hypothesis that the points (i) and (ii) have great influence on the power of the tests.
Homology Decompositions of the Loops on 1-Stunted Borel Constructions of C_2-Actions

description: Carlsson's construction is a simplicial group whose geometric realization is the loop space of the 1-stunted reduced Borel construction. Our main results are: i) Given a pointed simplicial set acted upon by the discrete cyclic group C_2 of order 2, if the orbit projection has a section, then this loop space has a mod 2 homology decomposition; ii) If the reduced diagonal map of the C_2-invariant set is homologous to zero, then the pinched sets in the above homology decomposition themselves have homology decompositions in terms of the C_2-invariant set and the orbit space. Result i) generalizes a previous homology decomposition of the second author for trivial actions. To illustrate these two results, we completely compute the mod 2 Betti numbers for an example.

description: We study systems with two symmetric absorbing states, such as the voter model and variations of it, which have been broadly used as minimal neutral models in genetics, population ecology, sociology, etc. We analyze the effects of a key ingredient ineluctably present in most real applications: random-field-like quenched disorder. In accord with simulations and previous findings, coexistence between the two competing states/opinions turns out to be strongly favored by disorder in the standard voter model; actually, a disorder-induced phase transition is generated for any finite system size in the presence of an arbitrary small spontaneous-inversion rate (preventing absorbing states from being stable). For non-linear versions of the voter model a general theory (by AlHammal et al.) explains that the spontaneous breaking of the up/down symmetry and an absorbing state phase transition can occur either together or separately, giving raise to two different scenarios. Here, we show that he presence of quenched disorder in non-linear voter models does not allow the separation of the up-down (Ising-like) symmetry breaking from the active-to-absorbing phase transition in low-dimensional systems: both phenomena can occur only simultaneously, as a consequence of the well-known Imry-Ma argument generalized to these non-equilibrium problems. When the two phenomena occur at unison, resulting into a genuinely non-equilibrium ("Generalized Voter") transition, the Imry-Ma argument is violated and the symmetry can be spontaneously broken even in low dimensions.

description: (abridged) PSR J1048-5832 is a young Vela-like pulsar that was recently detected in gamma-rays with Fermi, and also in X-rays with Chandra and XMM-Newton. It powers a compact PWN visible in X-rays. We present deep optical observations with the ESO Very Large Telescope to search for optical counterparts of the pulsar and its nebula and to explore their multi-wavelength emission properties. The data were obtained in V and R bands and compared with archival data in other spectral domains. We do not detect the pulsar in the optical and derive informative upper limits of R > 28.1 mag and V > 28.4 mag for its brightness. Using a red-clump star method, we estimate an interstellar extinction towards the pulsar of 2 mag, which is consistent with the absorbing column density derived form X-rays. The respective distance agrees with the dispersion measure distance. We reanalyse the Chandra X-ray data and compare the dereddened upper limits with the unabsorbed X-ray spectrum of the pulsar. We find that regarding its optical-X-ray spectral properties this gamma-ray pulsar is not distinct from other pulsars detected in both ranges. However, like the Vela pulsar, it is very inefficient in the optical and X-rays. Among a dozen optical sources overlapping with the pulsar X-ray nebula we find one with V = 26.9 and R = 26.3 mag, whose colour is slightly bluer then that of the field stars and consistent with the peculiar colours typical for pulsar nebula features. It positionally coincides with a relatively bright feature of the pulsar X-ray nebula, resembling the Crab wisp and locating in 2 arcsec from the pulsar. We suggest this source as a counterpart candidate to the feature. Based on the substantial interstellar extinction towards the pulsar and its optical inefficiency, further optical studies should be carried out at longer wavelengths.

A rewriting point of view on strategies

Subjects: subject: Logic in Computer Science (cs.LO)

description: This paper is an expository contribution reporting on published work. It focusses on an approach followed in the rewriting community to formalize the concept of strategy. Based on rewriting concepts, several definitions of strategy are reviewed and connected: in order to catch the higher-order nature of strategies, a strategy is defined as a proof term expressed in the rewriting logic or in the rewriting calculus; to address in a coherent way deduction and computation, a strategy is seen as a subset of derivations; and to recover the definition of strategy in sequential path-building games or in functional programs, a strategy is considered as a partial function that associates to a reduction-in-progress, the possible next steps in the reduction sequence.
