description: We study the twist-field representations of W-algebras and generalize construction of the corresponding vertex operators to D- and B-series. It is shown, how the computation of characters of these representations leads to nontrivial identities involving lattice theta-functions. We also propose a way to calculate their exact conformal blocks, expressing them for D-series in terms of geometric data of the corresponding Prym variety for covering curve with involution.

description: We describe a novel technique for creating an artificial magnetic field for ultra-cold atoms using a periodically pulsed pair of counter propagating Raman lasers that drive transitions between a pair of internal atomic spin states: a multi-frequency coupling term. In conjunction with a magnetic field gradient, this dynamically generates a rectangular lattice with a non-staggered magnetic flux. For a wide range of parameters, the resulting Bloch bands have non-trivial topology, reminiscent of Landau levels, as quantified by their Chern numbers.

The History of Rothley
Creators: name: Henry Fosbrooke, Thomas
Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service
Year: 2023

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 12, 1-128
description: The object of the following account of the history of the manor and church of Rothley has already been explained in the notes on three other Leicestershire manors recently published in our Transactions. The manor of Rothley is of special interest as one of considerable size and importance, with widely scattered members, and with customs which give it a peculiar individuality. The questions of jurisdiction and tenure which arise in connection with it are of more than local importance, appealing particularly to the general student of manorial history and local government. On another side of the subject, the relation of the manor and church to the two military religious orders of medieval England is illustrated in a concrete form by the survival of the house and chapel of the Knights Templars in the parish. These buildings are described in the following pages by Mr. Fosbrooke, while Mr. Watts is responsible for the description of the church. Ecclesiastically, the parish, with its distant chapelries, while not unique, is at any rate quite exceptional. The list of incumbents has been drawn up from records of institutions kindly supplied by the C. W. Foster, prebendary of Leicester St. Margaret's in the cathedral church of Lincoln. Unfortunately, owing to the fact that the priests of the various chapels were appointed by the vicars of Rothley at their pleasure, according to the universal custom in such cases, so that there is no consecutive record of their appointments, no satisfactory lists can be made of them. Their names, however, even if they could be obtained, would be of little or no value to the historian.

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 12, 164-177
description: The Hall is a large, two-storied building, with garrets in the roof.The principal rooms look north and west and the kitchens to the south, an arrangement which was usual at the period when the house was first built. It was formerly partly surrounded by a moat, portions of which still exist. Within this area still stand the small parish church and a mediaeval dovecote. Successive owners have at various times made such con�siderable alterations and additions that it is quite impossible to give an exact plan at any particular date, but many of the features are quite easily placed in their correct position in the march of time. In the future the ivy may be removed and some of the panelling or plastering be taken down, but till such time, the final word on its history will remain unwritten.

description: Video games are a popular form of entertainment. Since games have grown in popularity and become commonplace, studies have been carried out attempting to understand this phenomenon and players more. Many people may be familiar with the notion of “being in the zone” yet may be unaware of flow. They are fundamentally similar concepts. Since Csíkszentmihályi’s work on flow people have aimed to further understand the idea. Flow is an aspect of positive psychology, understanding it may help people focus and perform better. Flow may be a useful idea to know of when understanding users. Video games are often a form of entertainment so enjoyment is key to players and designers. Understanding flow can help creators of games create games with improved flow. Flow’s close links to immersion means understanding flow could make games more immersive. Creating a game with flow in mind could improve the gameplay experience of a game, something which will benefit many games including multiplayer first-person shooters. What follows is a master’s thesis considering flow in video games, focusing on multiplayer first person shooters, specifically, the games in the Halo series of this type. The thesis chronicles an attempt to understand flow in video games. Relevant literature and themes are discussed in this work. The work contains information on an autoethnography study carried out by the author on their experiences with games, specifically, multiplayer first-person shooters in the Halo series. Other studies are included supplementary to this including a questionnaire study and a group play session and group interview. The findings of the study and data are analysed and discussed. This thesis contributes to the subjects of flow and designing video games.

description: Predicting Arctic sea ice extent is a notoriously difficult forecasting problem, even for lead times as short as one month. Motivated by Arctic intraannual variability phenomena such as reemergence of sea surface temperature and sea ice anomalies, we use a prediction approach for sea ice anomalies based on analog forecasting. Traditional analog forecasting relies on identifying a single analog in a historical record, usually by minimizing Euclidean distance, and forming a forecast from the analog's historical trajectory. Here an ensemble of analogs are used to make forecasts, where the ensemble weights are determined by a dynamics-adapted similarity kernel, which takes into account the nonlinear geometry on the underlying data manifold. We apply this method for forecasting pan-Arctic and regional sea ice area and volume anomalies from multi-century climate model data, and in many cases find improvement over the benchmark damped persistence forecast. Examples of success include the 3--6 month lead time prediction of pan-Arctic area, the winter sea ice area prediction of some marginal ice zone seas, and the 3--12 month lead time prediction of sea ice volume anomalies in many central Arctic basins. We discuss possible connections between KAF success and sea ice reemergence, and find KAF to be successful in regions and seasons exhibiting high interannual variability.

Here the probability distribution function (PDF) of the eigenvalues of $C$ is explicitly computed for low values of $n$, for $A$ and $B$ uniformly and independently distributed on their orbit, and confronted to numerical experiments. Similar considerations apply to skew-symmetric and symmetric real matrices under the action of the orthogonal group. In the latter case, where no analytic formula is known in general and we rely on numerical experiments, curious patterns of enhancement appear.

description: We study constrained versions of the minimal supersymmetric model and investigate the hierarchy between the electroweak scale and the scale of superpartners that can be achieved without relying on specifying model parameters by more than one digit. This approach automatically avoids scenarios in which a large hierarchy is obtained by special choices of parameters and yet keeps scenarios that would be otherwise disfavored by various sensitivity measures. We consider models with universal gaugino and scalar masses, models with non-universal Higgs masses or non-universal gaugino masses and focus on scenarios in which all the model parameters are either of the same order or zero at the grand unification scale. We find that the maximal hierarchy between the electroweak scale and stop masses, requiring that model parameters are not specified beyond one digit, ranges from a factor of $\sim 10-30 $ for the CMSSM up to $\sim 300$ for models with non-universal Higgs or gaugino masses.

A subsampling delta-sigma modulator for global navigation satellite systems
Creators: name: Ucar, Alper
Publisher: name: University of Westminster
Year: 2010

description: Next-generation Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) receivers should be capable of processing multi-frequency signals in order to provide better positioning accuracy and signal availability to end-user. Nevertheless, the realization of such receivers with conventional receiver architectures leads to power-hungry devices and hinders monolithic integration of the receiver. Multi–frequency receivers can be realized with lower power and cost by performing sub-Nyquist sampling (subsampling) at Radio Frequency (RF). In practice, the use of subsampling receivers has been limited due to their poor noise performance. This is particularly a concern in applications of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) such as GNSS since subsampling may saturate the Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) as the thermal noise floor is above the signals of interest. Continuous-Time (CT) Delta-Sigma (ΔΣ) modulation is an attractive candidate for subsampling Analog-to-Digital (A/D) conversion as it provides noise-shaping and inherent Anti-Alias (AA) filtering. However, the attenuation of the RF alias in the feedback path of the modulator and the reduction of the effective Quality (Q-factor) of the loop filter prevent conventional CT-ΔΣ modulators to be utilized in subsampling receivers. This thesis proposes a novel CT-ΔΣ modulator at both the system and the circuit level that is capable of compensating for the effects of subsampling. These are achieved by modifying the feedback path of the conventional modulator architecture to accommodate for the RF alias and by enhancing the Q-factor of the loop filter. The proposed CT-ΔΣ has significant improvements over previously published subsampling modulators as it provides jitter and alias suppression and excess loop delay compensation to improve the dynamic range, thus enabling the modulator to be utilized in subsampling receivers when a relatively low sampling rate is desired. Based on the novel CT-ΔΣ modulator, this thesis also proposes a subsampling receiver architecture for multi-constellation GNSS applications. Simulations results indicate that the proposed receiver architecture can successfully acquire and track the civilian radio navigation signals with a high performance.
Flexibly imposing periodicity in kernel independent FMM: A Multipole-To-Local operator approach
Creators: name: Yan, Wen
name: Shelley, Michael
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: An important but missing component in the application of the kernel independent fast multipole method (KIFMM) is the capability for flexibly and efficiently imposing singly, doubly, and triply periodic boundary conditions. In most popular packages such periodicities are imposed with the hierarchical repetition of periodic boxes, which may give an incorrect answer due to the conditional convergence of some kernel sums. Here we present an efficient method to properly impose periodic boundary conditions using a near-far splitting scheme. The near-field contribution is directly calculated with the KIFMM method, while the far-field contribution is calculated with a multipole-to-local (M2L) operator which is independent of the source and target point distribution. The M2L operator is constructed with the far-field portion of the kernel function to generate the far-field contribution with the downward equivalent source points in KIFMM. This method guarantees the sum of the near-field \& far-field converge pointwise to results satisfying periodicity and compatibility conditions. The computational cost of the far-field calculation observes the same $\mathcal{O}(N)$ complexity as FMM and is designed to be small by reusing the data computed by KIFMM for the near-field. The far-field calculations require no additional control parameters, and observes the same theoretical error bound as KIFMM. We present accuracy and timing test results for the Laplace kernel in singly periodic domains and the Stokes velocity kernel in doubly and triply periodic domains.
Renormalization in large-$N$ QCD is incompatible with open/closed string duality

description: Solving by a canonical string theory, of closed strings for the glueballs and open strings for the mesons, the 't Hooft large-$N$ expansion of QCD is a long-standing problem that resisted all the attempts despite the advent of the celebrated gauge/gravity duality in the framework of string theory. We demonstrate that in the canonical string framework such a solution does not actually exist because an inconsistency arises between the renormalization properties of the QCD S matrix at large $N$ -- a consequence of the asymptotic freedom (AF) -- and the open/closed duality of the would-be string solution. Specifically, the would-be open-string one-loop corrections to the tree glueball amplitudes must be ultraviolet (UV) divergent. Hence, naively, the inconsistency arises because these amplitudes are dual to tree closed-string diagrams, which are universally believed to be both UV finite -- since they are closed-string tree diagrams -- and infrared finite because of the glueball mass gap. In fact, the inconsistency follows from a low-energy theorem of the NSVZ type that controls the renormalization in QCD-like theories. The inconsistency extends to the would-be canonical string for a vast class of 't Hooft large-$N$ QCD-like theories including $\mathcal{N}=1$ SUSY QCD. We also demonstrate that the presently existing SUSY string models with a mass gap -- such as Klebanov-Strassler, Polchinski-Strassler (PS) and certain PS variants -- cannot contradict the above-mentioned results since they are not asymptotically free. Moreover, we shed light on the way the open/closed string duality may be perturbatively realized in these string models compatibly with a mass gap in the 't Hooft-planar closed-string sector and the low-energy theorem because of the lack of AF. Finally, we suggest a noncanonical way-out for QCD-like theories based on topological strings on noncommutative twistor space.

Rupert's Tower, Leicester

description: HISTORICAL landmarks always tend to be a diminishing quantity-as is indeed the case with all works of art. One has only to read Vasari and similar authors to know what grievous losses have been sustained in the latter category by one cause or another. It is all too true and regrettable that Leicester, even in living memory, has lost many of its architectural treasures which it could little afford to part with. To mention only a few-the Wyggeston Hospital chapel in St Martin's, the Huntingdon Tower in High Street, the many old Georgian fronts, Francis Hames' charming council chamber with its enriched barrel ceiling at the municipal buildings, the money-penny stone facade of the penitentiary in Highcross Street-all have gone. Some six years ago, with the object of slightly increasing the width of Bonner's Lane, an interesting relic of medieval times on the north side of that thoroughfare was demolished. The surprising thing was that so little by way of lament was heard at the time of its disappearance or since, for the matter of that, although there was "a blessing in it". The building referred to was on the southern boundary of the Newarke area and was generally known as Rupert's Tower. Whence the appellation Tower was derived it is difficult to say, for although a careful search was made during the pulling down, nothing suggestive o.f a tower or gateway was brought to light. From the remains, one might safely assume that they represent a building of domestic character of the late fourteenth century. By some the building was spoken of as Bishop Bonner's Palace. It is quite possible, however, that a few yards distant from the west end of it there was, at the southern end of Fairfax Street, a gateway or tower giving access to the Newarke.

Old Glass in Twycross Church

description: THE rector of Twycross very laudably decided tin September last to take steps to protect the ancient glass in the east window of his church from risk of enemy air raid damage. Acting upon the advice of your Secretary, Mr. S. H. Skillington, whom he first consulted, and later of Mr. Albert Herbert, a firm was called in to carefully remove the painted glass lights, put them into wooden cases and to deposit them in the basement of the isolated rectory which lies some little distance away across the fields to the north west. The vacant lights were then filled in with plain clear sheet glass of diamond-shaped pattern.
Solving Constrained Horn Clauses Using Dependence-Disjoint Expansions

description: Recursion-free Constrained Horn Clauses (CHCs) are logic-programming problems that can model safety properties of programs with bounded iteration and recursion. In addition, many CHC solvers reduce recursive systems to a series of recursion-free CHC systems that can each be solved efficiently. In this paper, we define a novel class of recursion-free systems, named Clause-Dependence Disjoint (CDD), that generalizes classes defined in previous work. The advantage of this class is that many CDD systems are smaller than systems which express the same constraints but are part of a different class. This advantage in size allows CDD systems to be solved more efficiently than their counterparts in other classes. We implemented a CHC solver named Shara. Shara solves arbitrary CHC systems by reducing the input to a series of CDD systems. Our evaluation indicates that Shara outperforms state-of-the-art implementations in many practical cases.

Croxton Abbey Leicestershire

description: Transactions of the Leicestershire Archaeological and Historical Society, 22, 289-291
description: A most valuable record of the foundations of this Premonstratensian abbey was sent by Sir A. W. Clapham, C.B.E., to our Member, Albert Herbert, many months ago and is now preserved with the Society's Archives. It is based on a survey made for the late Duke of Rutland after his excavations there of about 1926. To prevent the possibility of the information given on this unique document being lost, a copy was made and a line block prepared, prints of which we have pleasure in inserting in the present Transactions, by permission of Sir Alfred Clapham. Until the site was explored circa 1926 no remains appeared above the surface of the ground and the faithfully measured and plotted drawings not only constitute a most valuable record, but are an example of how such recording should be documented.

description: Homomorphic encryption is an encryption scheme that allows computations to be evaluated on encrypted inputs without knowledge of their raw messages. Recently Ouyang et al. constructed a quantum homomorphic encryption (QHE) scheme for Clifford circuits with statistical security (or information-theoretic security (IT-security)). It is desired to see whether an information-theoretically-secure (ITS) quantum FHE exists. If not, what other nontrivial class of quantum circuits can be homomorphically evaluated with IT-security? We provide a limitation for the first question that an ITS quantum FHE necessarily incurs exponential overhead. As for the second one, we propose a QHE scheme for the instantaneous quantum polynomial-time (IQP) circuits. Our QHE scheme for IQP circuits follows from the one-time pad.
description: 7 pages. IQP+ and IQPP are removed since IQP+ is equivalent to IQP if input states are restricted to the product of plus states

description: Collective effects in deformed atomic nuclei present possible avenues of study on the non-spherical distribution of neutrons and the violation of the local Lorentz invariance. We introduce the weak quadrupole moment of nuclei, related to the quadrupole distribution of the weak charge in the nucleus. The weak quadrupole moment produces tensor weak interaction between the nucleus and electrons and can be observed in atomic and molecular experiments measuring parity nonconservation. The dominating contribution to the weak quadrupole is given by the quadrupole moment of the neutron distribution, therefore, corresponding experiments should allow one to measure the neutron quadrupoles. Using the deformed oscillator model and the Schmidt model we calculate the quadrupole distributions of neutrons, $Q_{n}$, the weak quadrupole moments ,$Q_{W}^{(2)}$, and the Lorentz Innvariance violating energy shifts in $^{9}$Be, $^{21}$Ne , $^{27}$Al, $^{131}$Xe, $^{133}$Cs, $^{151}$Eu, $^{153}$Eu, $^{163}$Dy, $^{167}$Er, $^{173}$Yb, $^{177}$Hf, $^{179}$Hf, $^{181}$Ta, $^{201}$Hg and $^{229}$Th.
