description: An isobar model containing Born terms, vector meson exchange and nucleon resonances is used to analyze recent eta photoproduction data for cross section and beam asymmetry, as well as JLab electroproduction data. Good overall description is achieved up to Q^2 = 4.0 (GeV/c)^2. Besides the dominant S11(1535) resonance, we show that the second S11 resonance, S11(1650), is also necessary to be included in order to extract S11(1535) resonance parameters properly. In addition, the beam asymmetry data allow us to extract very small (<0.1%) N* --> eta N decay branching ratios of D13(1520) and F15(1680) resonances because of the overwhelming s-wave dominance. The model is implemented as a part of the MAID program.

description: Transient cloud servers such as Amazon Spot instances, Google Preemptible VMs, and Azure Low-priority batch VMs, can reduce cloud computing costs by as much as $10\times$, but can be unilaterally preempted by the cloud provider. Understanding preemption characteristics (such as frequency) is a key first step in minimizing the effect of preemptions on application performance, availability, and cost. However, little is understood about temporally constrained preemptions---wherein preemptions must occur in a given time window. We study temporally constrained preemptions by conducting a large scale empirical study of Google's Preemptible VMs (that have a maximum lifetime of 24 hours), develop a new preemption probability model, new model-driven resource management policies, and implement them in a batch computing service for scientific computing workloads. Our statistical and experimental analysis indicates that temporally constrained preemptions are not uniformly distributed, but are time-dependent and have a bathtub shape. We find that existing memoryless models and policies are not suitable for temporally constrained preemptions. We develop a new probability model for bathtub preemptions, and analyze it through the lens of reliability theory. To highlight the effectiveness of our model, we develop optimized policies for job scheduling and checkpointing. Compared to existing techniques, our model-based policies can reduce the probability of job failure by more than $2\times$. We also implement our policies as part of a batch computing service for scientific computing applications, which reduces cost by $5\times$ compared to conventional cloud deployments and keeps performance overheads under $3\%$.

description: We present a review of X-ray observations of supernovae (SNe). By observing the (~0.1-100 keV) X-ray emission from young SNe, physical key parameters such as the circumstellar matter (CSM) density, mass-loss rate of the progenitor and temperature of the outgoing and reverse shock can be derived as a function of time. Despite intensive search over the last ~25 years, only 15 SNe have been detected in X-rays. We review the individual X-ray observations of these SNe and discuss their implications as to our understanding of the physical processes giving rise to the X-ray emission.

description: We develop new tools for isolating CFTs using the numerical bootstrap. A "cutting surface" algorithm for scanning OPE coefficients makes it possible to find islands in high-dimensional spaces. Together with recent progress in large-scale semidefinite programming, this enables bootstrap studies of much larger systems of correlation functions than was previously practical. We apply these methods to correlation functions of charge-0, 1, and 2 scalars in the 3d $O(2)$ model, computing new precise values for scaling dimensions and OPE coefficients in this theory. Our new determinations of scaling dimensions are consistent with and improve upon existing Monte Carlo simulations, sharpening the existing decades-old $8σ$ discrepancy between theory and experiment.

description: Prester John was said to have been an Eastern Christian monarch who ruled over a fantastical Empire in the Far East, containing both marvels and treasure. Originating in the twelfth century, this legend captivated the mind of Europeans well into the Age of Exploration and was still a figure of interest in the eighteenth century. Accordingly, this study takes a necessary Longue durée approach to the reception history of Prester John. Key to this study is an examination of how the reception of Prester John is indicative of wider European conceptions of Eastern alterity. Figures of curiosity, such as Prester John, ‘existed’ in spaces of ignorance (Terra Incognita) that exhibited a different category of knowledge to that of the ‘known’ world, from the European perspective. As Europeans expanded their knowledge of the World, through travel and exploration, figures of curiosity were pushed further to the margins of geographical ignorance. This study examines how this epistemological conception of Prester John allowed him to be reimagined from being an Asian Crusader king to the Emperor of Ethiopia, and continue to be involved in western debates about the religious orthodoxy of Oriental Christianity from the Crusades into the Reformation. Consequently, this study calls for a new approach to myth and its push-pull relationship to scientific knowledge formation.

description: The term “social innovation” gained popularity within scholars, however its definitions differ to a large extent; the most promising one says about a change in attitudes and behaviour of a group of people that in relation to the group’s horizon leads to new and improved ways of collaborative action. This paper tries to answer the question whether thematic villages, where the inhabitants jointly decide on a topic and prepare unique tourist attractions based mainly on local cultural, natural, and social heritage, can be called social innovations. It is concluded that thematic villages fulfill the abovementioned definition of social innovations.

PRINCIPAL COMPONENT ANALYSIS FOR SIMPLIFYING MULTIVARIATE FINANCIAL DATA IN PORTFOLIO RISK ANALYSIS
Creators: name: Mbonigaba Celestin*, M. Vasuki**, S. Sujatha*** & A. Dinesh Kumar***
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: This study investigates the application of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) in simplifying multivariate financial data for portfolio risk analysis. The research aims to assess the effectiveness of PCA in reducing dimensionality, enhancing the accuracy of risk assessment models, and optimizing investment strategies for risk-adjusted returns. A quantitative methodology was employed, using historical financial datasets from 2020 to 2024, standardized preprocessing, and PCA extraction of principal components. The first three principal components accounted for 75.2% of the variance, confirming their significance in capturing portfolio risk. Regression analysis revealed an improvement in model accuracy from an adjusted R2 of 0.62 to 0.88, while portfolio risk exposure was reduced by 3.4% through PCA-based asset selection. The correlation between PCA-extracted factors and portfolio performance increased from 0.82 in 2020 to 0.88 in 2024, underscoring PCA’s growing predictive alignment with market trends. The study concludes that PCA enhances financial decision-making by isolating key risk drivers, improving model precision, and informing diversification strategies. It recommends integrating PCA with machine learning techniques, updating models with real-time data, and optimizing computational performance for high-frequency financial environments.

description: This review reports on the research done during the past years on violations of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) in glassy systems. It is focused on the existence of a quasi-fluctuation-dissipation theorem (QFDT) in glassy systems and the currently supporting knowledge gained from numerical simulation studies. It covers a broad range of non-stationary aging and stationary driven systems such as structural-glasses, spin-glasses, coarsening systems, ferromagnetic models at criticality, trap models, models with entropy barriers, kinetically constrained models, sheared systems and granular media. The review is divided into four main parts: 1) An introductory section explaining basic notions related to the existence of the FDT in equilibrium and its possible extension to the glassy regime (QFDT), 2) A description of the basic analytical tools and results derived in the framework of some exactly solvable models, 3) A detailed report of the current evidence in favour of the QFDT and 4) A brief digression on the experimental evidence in its favour. This review is intended for inexpert readers who want to learn about the basic notions and concepts related to the existence of the QFDT as well as for the more expert readers who may be interested in more specific results.

description: We report strong terahertz (~10^12 Hz) high harmonic generation in thin films of Cd3As2, a three-dimensional Dirac semimetal at room temperature. The third harmonics is detectable with tabletop light source and can be as strong as 100 V/cm by applying the fundamental field of 6.5 kV/cm inside the film, showing an unprecedented efficiency for terahertz frequency conversion. Our time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy and calculations also clarify the microscopic mechanism of the nonlinearity originating in the coherent acceleration of Dirac electrons in momentum space. Our results provide clear insights for nonlinear current of Dirac electrons driven by terahertz field under an influence of scattering, paving the way toward novel devices for high-speed electronics and photonics based on topological semimetals.

 HOLOTYPE, male, det. Akis spinosa (Linnaeus, 1764) (Fig. 7). Linnaeus Coll., UUZM.
 Original description. “24 T (enebrio) apterus, thoracis lateribus antice posticeque acuminatis, elytris striis tribus elevatis. Mus. Lud. Ulr. 101 Habitat in Europa australe.”
 Type status. The holotype of Tenebrio spinosus L., 1964, recorded as “ Eurychora spinosa ” by Thunberg (1804), is a repaired specimen in rather poor condition. It is a male with a truncate, not ovoid-acuminate elytra with three longitudinal costae, separated by two rows of tubercles that decrease in size anteriorly and towards the posterior edge of the elytron (Fig. 7). The first row of tubercles between the suture and the first costal elevation is restricted to the posterior region of the elytron, so it is only visible in posterior view. The second row of tubercles extends anteriorly such that it is also visible dorsally. This distinctive sculpturing identifies the holotype as an Egyptian darkling beetle, Akis elevata Solier, 1836, var. sculptior Koch, 1935 (Ferrer 2008, Ferrer et al. 2009). The valid combination for this species is Akis spinosus (L., 1764), and the type was probably collected from Egypt or the Arabian Peninsula based on the localities recorded for “ A. elevata var. sculptior.” Pehr Forsskåhl obtained material for Linnaeus from this region in 1763 and is probably the collector of the specimen.
 Remarks. Previous references in the literature to Akis spinosa (L.) follow the taxonomic concept of Herbst (1799) and are now considered misidentifications of Akis trilineata Herbst, 1799. This species lacks the conspicuous elytral granulation as in Akis spinosa (L.) but has distinct, equidistant elytral elevations described for the Western Mediterranean species Akis italica Solier and Akis barbara Solier (Ferrer 2006, Ferrer et al. 2009). Akis trilineata (Herbst, 1799) is a Western Mediterranean species recorded from the Italian Penninsula, Sicily, Corsica, and Sardinia that has been misidentified as Akis spinosa (L.) (Herbst 1799, Solier 1837, Kraatz, 1865, Gebien, 1910, 1937, Viñolas & Cartagena 2005).

description: Since the end of the 50's, a series of producer associations have been formed for working land in common in Spain, thus forming a new enterprise starting with small farms which were cultivated individually before. Usually two legal forms are applied to them: The Cooperatives and the Syndical Groups. The resulting type of enterprise can be situated, within the ample area of "group farming" as "cooperative farming," between "joint cultivation" and "collective farming," where the individual land rights of the owner are conserved. A true pooling of the lands are made, of the capital and of the work, giving place to alterations in the traditional order of agricultural exploitation, in the social as well as economic aspects.

description: The anomalous weak dipole moments of the tau lepton are measured in a data sample collected by ALEPHfrom 1990 to 1995 corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 155pb-1. Tau leptons produced in the reaction e+e- -> tau+tau- at energies close to the Z mass are studied using their semileptonic decays to pi, rho, a_1 -> pi 2pi0 or a_1 -> 3 pi. The real and imaginary components of both the anomalous weak magnetic dipole moment and the CP-violating anomalous weak electric dipole moment, Re,mu_tau, Im,mu_tau, Re, d_tau and Im, d_tau, are measured simultaneously by means of a likelihood fit built from the full differential cross section. No evidence of new physics is found. The following bounds are obtained 95% CL: |Re, mu_tau | < 1.14 x 10-3, |Im}, mu_tau | < 2.65 x 10-3, |Re}, d_tau | < 0.91 x 10-3, and |Im, d_tau | < 2.01 x 10-3.

A detailed analysis of Binder cumulants and the joint probability distributions of energy like and ordering-field like observables confirms that the chiral critical point belongs to the universality class of the 3d Ising model. From a calculation with improved gauge and staggered fermion actions we estimate that the transition is first order for pseudo-scalar meson masses less than about 200 MeV.

description: LPMLN is a probabilistic extension of answer set programs with the weight scheme adapted from Markov Logic. We study the concept of strong equivalence in LPMLN, which is a useful mathematical tool for simplifying a part of an LPMLN program without looking at the rest of it. We show that the verification of strong equivalence in LPMLN can be reduced to equivalence checking in classical logic via a reduct and choice rules as well as to equivalence checking under the "soft" logic of here-and-there. The result allows us to leverage an answer set solver for LPMLN strong equivalence checking. The study also suggests us a few reformulations of the LPMLN semantics using choice rules, the logic of here-and-there, and classical logic.

description: This thesis uses the Wallachian Revolution of 1848 as a window through which to see and study questions about time, revolution, national and European identity, personal and popular sovereignty, and the relationship between central and local interests in mid- nineteenth-century Europe. It argues that liberal intellectuals in the two Danubian Principalities thought about their national pasts and futures in European terms during the 1840s and re-imagined the idea of Europe from the periphery. It was only with the outbreak of revolution across Europe in 1848 that they began to think of changing the present. Popular sovereignty lay at the heart of the revolutionary programme. Opportunities to participate in national politics were opened to rural and urban populations alike, and these changes mirrored those across the continent during the revolutionary year. The history of Southeastern Europe should not be viewed as divorced from that of the rest of Europe. Debates on peasant emancipation and land mirrored those about the right to work in France, and both were connected to ideas of political sovereignty. To be sovereign as a whole, the people needed to be sovereign as individuals, which meant they needed the means to sustain themselves. In a city like Paris this meant they needed the right to work. In the agrarian context of rural Wallachia it meant they needed land. But while the general European revolution spurred the Wallachians to act, it also hindered their chance of success. The grand unified revolution broke apart, and counterrevolutionary forces picked them off one by one. A joint Ottoman-Russian occupation followed for Wallachia. The revolutionaries had attempted to Europeanise the principality. They took local concerns and transformed them into national debates. The counterrevolutionaries reversed these trends. They provincialised the principality, imposed new state apparatuses of control, and divided local grievances from national politics. It was not a return to the pre-revolutionary order. It was the creation of a new order that could preserve something of the character of the pre-revolutionary era while responding to the changing needs and circumstances of Wallachia.

description: We study the sandpile model on three-dimensional spanning Ising clusters with the temperature $T$ treated as the control parameter. By analyzing the three dimensional avalanches and their two-dimensional projections (which show scale-invariant behavior for all temperatures), we uncover two universality classes with different exponents (an ordinary BTW class, and SOC$_{T=\infty}$), along with a tricritical point (at $T_c$, the critical temperature of the host) between them. The transition between these two criticalities is induced by the transition in the support. The SOC$_{T=\infty}$ universality class is characterized by the exponent of the avalanche size distribution $τ^{T=\infty}=1.27\pm 0.03$, consistent with the exponent of the size distribution of the Barkhausen avalanches in amorphous ferromagnets (Phys. Rev. L 84, 4705 (2000)). The tricritical point is characterized by its own critical exponents. In addition to the avalanche exponents, some other quantities like the average height, the spanning avalanche probability (SAP) and the average coordination number of the Ising clusters change significantly the behavior at this point, and also exhibit power-law behavior in terms of $ε\equiv \frac{T-T_c}{T_c}$, defining further critical exponents. Importantly the finite size analysis for the activity (number of topplings) per site shows the scaling behavior with exponents $β=0.19\pm 0.02$ and $ν=0.75\pm 0.05$. A similar behavior is also seen for the SAP and the average avalanche height. The fractal dimension of the external perimeter of the two-dimensional projections of avalanches is shown to be robust against $T$ with the numerical value $D_f=1.25\pm 0.01$.

The research presented here estimates the complete supply elasticity of grains using novel approaches to approximate producers’ price and weather expectations on both yield and acres planted. The results from this approach combining acreage and yield show the negative impact of expanded production on average yields and the supply response. Additionally, the research extends previous methods of approximating producers’ price expectations through the use of historical basis prices.

description: Abstract: The intestinal epithelium is maintained by intestinal stem cells that replace each other stochastically over time. Stem cells that are excluded from the stem cell pool will differentiate into the absorptive or secretory cell lineages. However, intestinal cell-fate specification is not always restrictive and early secretory progenitors can revert back to the stem cell pool. Human colon cancer develops by acquisition of oncogenic mutations in the colonic epithelium throughout life. As secretory progenitors have unexpectedly been shown to be a significant source of colonic stem cells, they could serve a cell of origin for tumorigenesis. Furthermore, it has been speculated that tumours could arise in fields that encode pro-oncogenic mutations prior to overt tumour development. Mutations in KRAS can be found in 10% of healthy human colons in fields of up to 100 crypts that may be the cause of a subset of colorectal tumours. The extent to which such fields are predisposed to colorectal cancer development is unknown. The aims of this PhD project were to characterise the cell of origin and stem cell behaviour of KrasG12D fields and to develop new tools to recapitulate sequential mutations in vivo. Cre mediated lineage tracing of Atoh1 expressing early secretory progenitors carrying KrasG12D mutations demonstrated that KrasG12D expression does not change cell fate choices in homeostasis but appears to increase Atoh1+ stem cell contribution in the small intestine after Lgr5 depletion. In addition, Atoh1 derived KrasG12D stem cells have a competitive bias and Atoh1 derived KrasG12D crypts can multiply over time to create fields and polyps in the colonic epithelium. In addition, a mouse model that utilises Flp and Cre to temporally separate intestinal KrasG12D recombination from lineage-tracing was developed to study stem cell behaviour in KrasG12D fields. Lineage tracing in this model shows that crypts in KrasG12D epithelium have a markedly higher monoclonal conversion rate and accumulate an increased mutation load over time compared to WT crypts. Furthermore, the faster monoclonal conversion rate is shown to be dependent on Mek signalling downstream of Kras. Thus, KrasG12D fields may fix secondary mutations at an accelerated rate and so represent pro-oncogenic areas. Lastly, in this thesis a Rosa26 DrePr mouse model, that allows for recombination independently of other recombinases, is developed and used to initiate lineage tracing in a sequential model of Cre activated intestinal tumorigenesis. Collectively, the data presented in this thesis allows in-dept investigation of the cell of origin and stem cell behaviour in pro-oncogenic KrasG12D fields and contributes to the understanding of how such fields might lead to colon cancer.
Model for Synchrotron Emission from Shell Supernova Remnants in Nonuniform Interstellar Medium and Nonuniform Magnetic Field

description: Possibility to model the high energy synchrotron emission (in X- and gamma-rays) from supernova remnants is an important task for modern astronomy and astrophysics, because it may be responsible for the nonthermal X-rays and TeV gamma-rays observed recently from a number of SNRs. This emission allows as to look in the processes of particle acceleration on SNR shocks and generation of cosmic rays. In this paper, a model for the synchrotron emission from shell SNR in nonuniform interstellar medium and nonuniform magnetic field is presented. This model is a generalization of the model of Reynolds and Chevalier developed for a spherical SNR in the uniform medium and uniform magnetic field. The model will be used for studies on the thermal and nonthermal X-ray images and spectra from nonspherical SNRs in different interstellar magnetic field configurations.

PDM-charged particles in PD-magnetic plus Aharonov-Bohm flux fields: unconfined "almost-quasi-free" and confined in a Yukawa plus Kratzer exact solvability

description: Using azimuthally symmetrized cylindrical coordinates, we consider some position-dependent mass (PDM) charged particles moving in position-dependent (PD) magnetic and Aharonov-Bohm flux fields. We focus our attention on PDM-charged particles (i.e., the PDM is only radially dependent) moving in an inverse power-law-type radial PD-magnetic fields. Under such settings, we consider two almost-quasi-free PDM-charged particles (i.e., no interaction potential). Both yield exactly solvable Schrödinger equations of Coulombic nature but with different spectroscopic structures. Moreover, we consider a Yukawa-type PDM-charged particle moving not only in the vicinity of the PD-magnetic and Aharonov-Bohm flux fields but also in the vicinity of a Yukawa plus a Kratzer type potential force field. For this particular case, we use the Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method to come out with exact analytical eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. Which, in turn, recover those of the almost-quasi-free PDM-charged particle. Energy levels crossings are also reported.

description: We present a theoretical study of the time-dependent laser alignment of molecules taking into account the hyperfine coupling due to nuclear-quadrupole interactions. The coupling of nuclear spins to the overall angular momentum of molecules significantly influences their rotational dynamics. Here, we systematically analyze the impact of the nuclear-quadrupole coupling on the rotational dynamics of the linear $\text{I}_2$ and the asymmetric-top diiodobenzene molecule induced by external laser fields. We explore different regimes of pulse shapes and laser-pulse intensities and detail under which conditions the quadrupole coupling cannot be neglected in the description of the laser alignment of molecules.

description: The fresh produce sector is subject to season-specific market conditions so understanding differential impacts of various factors across marketing periods is important. We analyze the market structure, key factors influencing shipments, and seasonal price relationships in regional apple markets at the shipping-point and terminal-market levels using a symmetric variable threshold autoregressive model that allows threshold bands (which define price ranges considered in shipping decisions) to vary seasonally. We find that transportation costs and seasonality have a significant impact on threshold bands of market pairs and that the impact varies seasonally. This varying band across seasons may represent suppliers who perceive more or less opportunities to adjust their supply between regional markets and gain advantage by being responsive to market conditions.

description: We give a pedagogical review of the properties of the various meson condensation phases triggered by a large isospin or strangeness imbalance. We argue that these phases are extremely interesting and powerful playground for exploring the properties of hadronic matter. The reason is that they are realized in a regime in which various theoretical methods overlap with increasingly precise numerical lattice QCD simulations, providing insight on the properties of color confinement and of chiral symmetry breaking.

description: Hydrodynamical simulations are presented of a pulsar wind emitted by a supersonically moving pulsar. The pulsar moves through the interstellar medium or, in the more interesting case, through the supernova remnant created at its birth event. In both cases there exists a three-fold structure consisting of the wind termination shock, contact discontinuity and a bow shock bounding the pulsar wind nebula. Using hydrodynamical simulations we study the behaviour of the pulsar wind nebula inside a supernova remnant, and in particular the interaction with the outer shell of swept up interstellar matter and the blast wave surrounding the remnant. This interaction occurs when the pulsar breaks out of the supernova remnant. We assume the remnant is in the Sedov stage of its evolution. Just before break-through, the Mach number associated with the pulsar motion equals ${\cal M}_{\rm psr} = 7/\sqrt{5}$, {\em independent} of the supernova explosion energy and pulsar velocity. The bow shock structure is shown to survive this break-through event.

description: We study superconductivity driven by screened Coulomb repulsion in three-dimensional Luttinger semimetals with a quadratic band touching and strong spin-orbit coupling. In these semimetals, the Cooper pairs are formed by spin-3/2 fermions with non-trivial wavefunctions. We numerically solve the linear Eliashberg equation to obtain the critical temperature of a singlet s-wave gap function as a function of doping, with account of spin-orbit and self-energy corrections. In order to understand the underlying mechanism of superconductivity, we compute the sensitivity of the critical temperature to changes in the dielectric function $ε(iΩ_n,q)$. We relate our results to the plasmon and Kohn-Luttinger mechanisms. Finally, we discuss the validity of our approach and compare our results to the litterature. We find good agreement with some bismuth-based half-Heuslers, such as YPtBi, and speculate on superconductivity in the iridate Pr2Ir2O7.
