description: Recently developed general constraint polynomial approach is shown to replace a set of algebraic equations of the functional Bethe Ansatz method by a single polynomial constraint. As the proof of principle, the usefulness of the method is demonstrated for a number of quasi-exactly solvable (QES) potentials of the Schrödinger equation, such as two different sets of modified Manning potentials with three parameters, an electron in Coulomb and magnetic fields and relative motion of two electrons in an external oscillator potential, the hyperbolic Razavy potential, and a (perturbed) double sinh-Gordon system. The approach enables one to straightforwardly determine eigenvalues and wave functions. Odd parity solutions for the modified Manning potentials are also determined. For the QES examples considered here, constraint polynomials terminate a finite chain of orthogonal polynomials in an independent variable that need not to be necessarily energy. In the majority of cases the finite chain of orthogonal polynomials is characterized by a positive-definite moment functional ${\cal L}$, implying that a corresponding constraint polynomial has only real and simple zeros. Constraint polynomials are shown to be different from the weak orthogonal Bender-Dunne polynomials. At the same time the QES examples considered elucidate essential difference with various generalizations of the Rabi model. Whereas in the former case there are $n+1$ polynomial solutions at each point of a $n$th baseline, in the latter case there are at most $n+1$ polynomial solutions on entire $n$th baseline.

Fantastic quasi-photon and the symmetries of Maxwell electromagnetic theory, momentum-energy conservation law, and Fermat's principle

description: In this paper, I introduce two new concepts (Minkowski quasi-photon and invariance of physical definitions) to elucidate the theory developed in my previous work [Can. J. Phys. 93, 1510 (2015)], and to clarify the criticisms by Partanen and coworkers [Phys. Rev. A 95, 063850 (2017)]. Minkowski quasi-photon is the carrier of the momentum and energy of light in a medium under the sense of macroscopic averages of light-matter microscopic interactions. I firmly argue that required by the principle of relativity, the definitions of all physical quantities are invariant. I shed a new light on the significance of the symmetry of physical laws for resolution of the Abraham-Minkowski debate on the momentum of light in a medium. I illustrate by relativistic analysis why the momentums and energies of the electromagnetic subsystem and the material subsystem form Lorentz four-vectors separately for a closed system of light-matter interactions, and why the momentum and energy of a non-radiation field are owned by the material subsystem, and they are not measurable experimentally. Finally, I also provide an elegant proof for the invariance of physical definitions, and a clear definition of the Lorentz covariance for general physical quantities and tensors.

“REPRESENTATION OF REPRESENTATIONS”: CAPITAL AS A MYTHOLOGY IN MOVEMENT

Year: 2019

description: In reading Seventeen Contradictions and the End of Capitalism by David Harvey, one thing is clear: through continuous transitions from one material form to another, capital ends up to create a geographical landscape favourable to its own reproduction: once productive landscapes are turned into industrial deserts, old farms are demolished or converted to new uses, small factories and peasant holdings are displaced by industrial agriculture on a large-scale, working-class neighbourhoods get gentrified; offices, iconic cultural buildings and shopping malls proliferate in the urban landscape. But next to this, capital produces symbolic forms and intangibles landscape that consists in our mental concepts of the world and of our place in it: these forms are "representations of representations", e.g. social mythologies such as those studied by Roland Barthes in his Mythologies: the mythical image does not refer directly to things, but to another image. This is the reason why is so hard (but compelling) defuse the contradictions of capital, as in the case of Hong Kong.

description: Realising de Sitter vacua in string theory is challenging. For this reason it has been conjectured that de Sitter vacua inhabit the Swampland of inconsistent low-energy effective theories coupled to gravity. Since de Sitter is an attractor for $Λ$CDM, the conjecture calls $Λ$CDM into question. Reality appears sympathetic to this idea as local measurements of the Hubble constant $H_0$ are also at odds with $Λ$CDM analysis of Planck data. This tension suggests that the de Sitter state is unstable, thereby implying a turning point in the Hubble parameter. We present a model relieving this tension, which predicts a turning at small positive redshift $z_*$ that is dictated by present-day matter density $ω_m$. This feature is easily identified by homogeneous surveys covering redshifts $z \leq 0.1$. We comment on the implications for the Swampland program.

The Fourier support is limited to sets $Y\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ which can be covered by finitely many products of $δ$-regular sets in one dimension, but relative to arbitrary axes. Our results remain true if $Y$ is distorted by diffeomorphisms. Our method combines the original approach by Bourgain and Dyatlov, in the more quantitative 2017 rendition by Jin and Zhang, with Cartan set techniques.

GEOGRAPHY AND CAPITALISM: RETHINKING CONTRADICTIONS

description: A workshop was held in Rome in May 2015 based on David Harvey’s last book Seventeen Contradictions and the End of Capitalism. Considering different research perspectives on the topic, this essay proposes a change of perspective in the analysis of the capitalist relation moving from the concept of contradiction to the concept of crisis. Embracing this novel perspective will only be possible understanding the process of territorialization in its broad articulation. Above all, this will imply to move beyond constitutive territoriality while bringing other articulations of the territoriality into the foreground, especially configurative and ontological territorialities. This allows reflecting on the globalitarian capitalistic relation in a specifically geographical perspective.

description: We present a comprehensive study of five-dimensional brane-world models for neutrino physics based on flat compactifications. Particular emphasis is put on the inclusion of bulk mass terms. We derive a number of general results for such brane-world models with bulk mass terms. In particular, in the limit of small brane-bulk couplings, the electroweak eigenstates are predominantly given as a superposition of three light states with non-trivial small admixtures of bulk states. As a consequence, neutrinos can undergo standard oscillations as well as oscillation into bulk Kaluza-Klein states. We use this structure to construct a specific model based on Z_2 orbifolding and bulk Majorana masses which is compatible with all observed oscillation phenomena. The solar neutrino deficit is explained by oscillations into sterile bulk states while the atmospheric neutrino deficit is due to mu - tau oscillations with naturally maximal mixing. In addition, the model can accommodate the LSND result and a significant neutrino dark matter component. We also analyze the constraints from supernova energy loss on neutrino brane-world theories and show that our specific model is consistent with these constraints.

ONTOLOGY OF TERRITORIALITY: THE EIGHTEENTH CONTRADICTION OF CAPITALISM?
Creators: name: Turco, Angelo
Publisher: name: Bollettino della Società Geografica Italiana
Year: 2019

description: Globalitarian capitalism develops a network of contradictions of geographical nature. Among these contradictions it may shows the transcalarity heterotopias and competitive homologation, both linked to the dialectic unhomogeneity/homogeneity analyzed by D. Harvey. The capitalism devel-ops a peculiar relation with ontological territoriality through its sacredness. The economic theology (Weber, Benjamin) linked with political theology (Schmitt) and to the state production modes (Lefebvre), lays the foundations for a ontological desaster that meet the ecological desaster, developing the eighteenth contradiction of capitalism.

description: The fast demographic growth, together with the concentration of the population in cities and the increasing amount of daily waste, are factors that push to the limit the ability of waste assimilation by Nature. Therefore, we need technological means to make an optimal management of the waste collection process, which represents 70% of the operational cost in waste treatment. In this article, we present a free intelligent software system, based on computational learning algorithms, which plans the best routes for waste collection supported by past (historical) and future (predictions) data. The objective of the system is the cost reduction of the waste collection service by means of the minimization in distance traveled by any truck to collect a container, hence the fuel consumption. At the same time the quality of service to the citizen is increased avoiding the annoying overflows of containers thanks to the accurate fill level predictions performed by BIN-CT. In this article we show the features of our software system, illustrating it operation with a real case study of a Spanish city. We conclude that the use of BIN-CT avoids unnecessary visits to containers, reduces the distance traveled to collect a container and therefore we obtain a reduction of total costs and harmful emissions thrown to the atmosphere.

description: This is a brief reply to Matteo Marconi’s article. I have been challenged along with Marcello Tanca with the criticism of practicing a geography that is eccentric but unaware of the logical continuity between modernity and postmodernity. The suspicion is that the subversive impact of the “culturalist” turning point is in fact compromised by a system of production of truth akin by logic, operation and subject to that of the modern era. I have therefore attempted to formulate a possible answer to these comments and to the critical insights of Matteo Marconi, whom I thank for having requested a response to his writing.

description: As rotating neutron stars slow down, the pressure and the density in the core region increase due to the decreasing centrifugal forces and phase transitions may occur in the center. We extract the analytic behavior near the critical angular velocity $Ω_0$, where the phase transitions occur in the center of a neutron star, and calculate the moment of inertia, angular velocity, rate of slow down, braking index, etc. For a first order phase transition these quantities have a characteristic behavior, e.g., the braking index diverges as $\sim(Ω_0-Ω)^{-1/2}$. Observational consequences for first, second and other phase transitions are discussed.

description: Gauge-Yukawa Unification (GYU) relates the gauge and Yukawa couplings, thereby going beyond the usual GUTs, and it is assumed that the GYU in the third fermion generation implies that its Yukawa couplings are of the same order as the unified gauge coupling at the GUT scale. We re-examine carefully the recent observation that the top-bottom mass hierarchy can be explained to a certain extent in supersymmetric GYU models. It is found that there are equiv-top-mass-lines in the boundary conditions of the Yukawa couplings so that two different GYU models on the same line can not be distinguished by the top mass $M_t$ alone. If they are on different lines, they could be distinguished by $M_t$ in principle, provided that the predicted $M_t$'s are well below the infrared value $M_t$ (IR). We find that the ratio $M_t ({\rm IR})/\sinβ$ depends on $\tanβ$ for large $\tanβ$ and the lowest value of $M_t ({\rm IR})$ is $\sim 188$ GeV. We focus our attention on the existing $SU(5)$ GYU models which are obtained by requiring finiteness and reduction of couplings. They, respectively, predict $M_t= (183+δ^{\rm MSSM} M_t\pm 5)$ GeV and $(181+δ^{\rm MSSM} M_t\pm 3)$ GeV, where $δ^{\rm MSSM} M_t$ stands for the MSSM threshold correction and is $\sim -2$ GeV for the case that all the MSSM superpartners have the same mass $M_{\rm SUSY}$ with $μ_H/M_{\rm SUSY} <<1$.

CONTROVERSY OF MODERN AND POST-MODERN GEOGRAPHERS
Creators: name: Tanca, Marcello

Year: 2019

description: Giuseppe Dematteis, commenting on some excerpts from Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, wrote that «the belief of a solely physical and human geography, separated from “mental geography”, is not only scarcely useful, but detrimental» and so, conversely, a mental-only geography is also impracticable, because it lacks all those qualities that make geography interesting to humans, «who need a piece of Land to know the invisible». In response to article by Marconi, my impression is that controversies like these, if they have a sense as long as they are developed on the plan of principles, of theoretical conflicts, of conceptual metaphors and rhetorical and persuasive strategies, lose it –or assume another– precisely when we put them in the context of a concrete geography, which is also, apart from mental, physical, and human. I do no intend, therefore, to profess my faith as a post-modern. The same controversy between moderns and post-moderns has grown old precociously (in philosophy we are already talking about nouveau réalisme, cfr. Ferraris, 2012) and as such it should be dismissed. Also in geography.

description: The Hard X-ray Imager (HXI) onboard Hitomi (ASTRO-H) is an imaging spectrometer covering hard X-ray energies of 5-80 keV. Combined with the hard X-ray telescope, it enables imaging spectroscopy with an angular resolution of $1^\prime.7$ half-power diameter, in a field of view of $9^\prime\times9^\prime$. The main imager is composed of 4 layers of Si detectors and 1 layer of CdTe detector, stacked to cover wide energy band up to 80 keV, surrounded by an active shield made of BGO scintillator to reduce the background. The HXI started observations 12 days before the Hitomi loss, and successfully obtained data from G21.5$-$0.9, Crab and blank sky. Utilizing these data, we calibrate the detector response and study properties of in-orbit background. The observed Crab spectra agree well with a powerlaw model convolved with the detector response, within 5% accuracy. We find that albedo electrons in specified orbit strongly affect the background of Si top layer, and establish a screening method to reduce it. The background level over the full field of view after all the processing and screening is as low as the pre-flight requirement of $1$-$3\times10^{-4}$ counts s$^{-1}$ cm$^{-2}$ keV$^{-1}$.

description: We prove that for each $γ\in (0,2)$, there is an exponent $d_γ> 2$, the "fractal dimension of $γ$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG)", which describes the ball volume growth exponent for certain random planar maps in the $γ$-LQG universality class, the exponent for the Liouville heat kernel, and exponents for various continuum approximations of $γ$-LQG distances such as Liouville graph distance and Liouville first passage percolation. We also show that $d_γ$ is a continuous, strictly increasing function of $γ$ and prove upper and lower bounds for $d_γ$ which in some cases greatly improve on previously known bounds for the aforementioned exponents. For example, for $γ=\sqrt 2$ (which corresponds to spanning-tree weighted planar maps) our bounds give $3.4641 \leq d_{\sqrt 2} \leq 3.63299$ and in the limiting case we get $4.77485 \leq \lim_{γ\rightarrow 2^-} d_γ\leq 4.89898$.

We propose that such experiments can also determine the sign of $Δ_{31}$ even if the beam consists of {\it neutrinos} only. By measuring the $ν_μ\to ν_e$ transitions in two different energy ranges, the effects due to propagation of neutrinos through earth's crust can be isolated and the sign of $Δ_{31}$ can be determined. If the sensitivity of an experiment to $ϕ$ is $ε$, then the same experiment is automatically sensitive to matter effects and the sign of $Δ_{31}$ for values of $ϕ\geq 2 ε$.

description: We evaluate one-loop contributions to the C and P conserving $WWγ, WWZ$ form factors in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), and in a more constrained Supergravity Grand Unified Theory (SUGRA-GUT). A systematic search of maximal effects in the available parameter space, shows that at LEP2 energy MSSM contributions can hardly reach the border of the most optimistic accuracy expected on those couplings, even for particles close to their production thresholds. At NLC energies, the effects are more comfortably of the order of the expected sensitivity, and may therefore provide useful information on MSSM parameter values which will not be available from direct particle production. We also discuss briefly some variance with other studies.

description: The 5-dimensional spin-0 form of the Kemmer-Duffin-Petiau (KDP) equation is used to calculate scattering observables [elastic differential cross sections ($dσ/dΩ$), total cross sections ($σ_{Tot}$), and reaction cross sections ($σ_{Reac}$})] and to deduce $σ_{Tot}$ and $σ_{Reac}$ from transmission data for $K^+ + $ $^{6}$Li, $^{12}$C, $^{28}$Si, and $^{40}$Ca at several momenta in the range $488 - 714 MeV/c$. Realistic uncertainties are generated for the theoretical predictions. These errors, mainly due to uncertainties associated with the elementary $K^+ +$ nucleon amplitudes, are large, so that the disagreement that has been noted between experimental and theoretical $σ_{Tot}$ and $σ_{Reac}$ is not surprising. The results suggest that the $K^+ +$ nucleon amplitudes need to be much better determined before unconventional medium effects are invoked to explain the data.

description: In many applications where collecting data is expensive, for example neuroscience or medical imaging, the sample size is typically small compared to the feature dimension. It is challenging in this setting to train expressive, non-linear models without overfitting. These datasets call for intelligent regularization that exploits known structure, such as correlations between the features arising from the measurement device. However, existing structured regularizers need specially crafted solvers, which are difficult to apply to complex models. We propose a new regularizer specifically designed to leverage structure in the data in a way that can be applied efficiently to complex models. Our approach relies on feature grouping, using a fast clustering algorithm inside a stochastic gradient descent loop: given a family of feature groupings that capture feature covariations, we randomly select these groups at each iteration. We show that this approach amounts to enforcing a denoising regularizer on the solution. The method is easy to implement in many model architectures, such as fully connected neural networks, and has a linear computational cost. We apply this regularizer to a real-world fMRI dataset and the Olivetti Faces datasets. Experiments on both datasets demonstrate that the proposed approach produces models that generalize better than those trained with conventional regularizers, and also improves convergence speed.

Physics of the Nucleon Sea Quark Distributions

Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Sea quark distributions in the nucleon have naively been expected to be generated perturbatively by gluon splitting. In this case, there is no reason for the light quark and anti-quark sea distributions to be different. No asymmetries in the strange or heavy quark sea distributions are predicted in the improved parton model. However, recent experiments have called these naive expectations into question. A violation of the Gottfried sum rule has been measured in several experiments, suggesting that $\bar u < \bar d$ in the proton. Additionally, other measurements, while not definitive, show that there may be an asymmetry in the strange and anti-strange quark sea distributions. These effects may require nonperturbative explanations. In this review we first discuss the perturbative aspects of the sea quark distributions. We then describe the experiments that could point to nonperturbative contributions to the nucleon sea. Current phenomenological models that could explain some of these effects are reviewed.

description: Purpose: Measuring step count using activity monitors is an increasingly popular method of quantifying physical activity, however it is unknown whether gait irregularities or the use of gait aids affect the accuracy of these devices. This study evaluates the validity of the ActivPAL3, Fitbit Flex, and Jawbone UP Move activity monitors for measuring step count in hospital inpatients after lumbar fusion. Methods: The ActivPAL3 was tested on the thigh, the Fitbit, and the Jawbone were tested on the wrist and thigh, each monitor was tested 20 times. Validity was examined by calculating the percentage of steps detected by each monitor compared to the criterion measure of observed step count, the Standard Error of Measurement, and the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient. Results: The ActivPAL3 detected 85% (SD 27%) of observed steps. On the wrist, the Fitbit detected 24% (SD 34%) and the Jawbone detected 17% (SD 40%) of observed steps. On the thigh, the Fitbit detected 66% (SD 42%) and the Jawbone detected 22% (SD 35%) of observed steps. Conclusion: The ActivPAL3 activity monitor is a sufficiently valid tool to detect step count immediately after lumbar fusion. Wrist worn monitors are not recommended in this population, particularly with patients using gait aids.Implications for RehabilitationWalking may be quantified using activity monitoring, as both an assessment tool and as an adjunct to treatmentThe ActivPAL3 is sufficiently valid for use after lumbar fusion surgeryThe Fitbit Flex and Jawbone UP Move had low accuracy, particularly when a gait aid was used Walking may be quantified using activity monitoring, as both an assessment tool and as an adjunct to treatment The ActivPAL3 is sufficiently valid for use after lumbar fusion surgery The Fitbit Flex and Jawbone UP Move had low accuracy, particularly when a gait aid was used

description: In this article, we investigate how higher education contributes to the employment and earnings of individuals in labour markets, and whether social origins play a role in the financial benefits from higher education. We focus on these questions in nine low- and middle-income countries: Armenia, Bolivia, Colombia, Georgia, Ghana, Kenya, Laos, Macedonia, and Vietnam. We use the recent Skills Towards Employability and Productivity (STEP) surveys of urban labour force participants to examine individuals’ educational attainment, labour market participation, and earnings. Using logistic regressions, we find that individuals from disadvantaged origins are less likely to obtain a higher education degree. We find that in most of these countries, individuals who have earned a higher education degree are significantly more likely to be in the labour force and find employment, and enjoy sizable earnings premia. The findings are fairly robust with regard to the samples of individuals examined, and the methods used to measure earnings premia. Finally, we find little evidence that the earnings premia from higher education vary by social origins or the likelihood of an individual completing a degree. These results suggest that the benefits from higher education are comparable for individuals from disadvantaged and advantaged social origins.

Reconstruction of Daylight Spectral Power Distribution Based on Correlated Color Temperature: A Comparative Study between the CIE Approach and Localized Procedures in Assessing Non-image Forming Effects

description: Spectrally and spatially resolved information on daylight is critically important when planning for non-image forming (NIF) responses. Nevertheless, the availability of such data is scarce given the high initial costs and complex on-site maintenance of high-end spectral measurement devices. The CIE (Commission Internationale de l’Éclairage) reconstruction procedure allows for the derivation of the daylight spectral power distribution (SPD) from the chromaticity coordinates or the correlated color temperature (Tcp). However, several studies have suggested that both the daylight locus and the reconstruction procedure are erroneous, and specifically SPDs with a higher Tcp cannot be reproduced accurately. This paper studies the reconstruction accuracy of the SPD of daylight, and contextualizes the findings in relation to NIF effects. The analysis comprises a comparative study to determine the accuracy of the CIE procedure compared to two localized reconstruction procedures, and a sensitivity study to examine the impact of accuracy on the assessment of NIF responses, as represented by all five retinal photoreceptors and expressed in the α-opic efficacy of luminous radiation. The results indicated that a localized procedure, adjusting both the daylight locus and the PCA components of daylight, outperformed the CIE reconstruction method. However, improvement in the reconstruction accuracy had no effect on NIF assessment. The RSMPE for α-opic quantities did not exceed 4% for any procedure. In practical terms, this implies that cost-effective sensors and the representation of spectral properties in sky models with a single value – the correlated color temperature – can be used for NIF purposes. These findings bridge theory and practice by opening up new insights into the understanding of simplified methods used to determine NIF effects of daylight.
