description: The continuation of Misner space into the Euclidean region is seen to imply the topological restriction that the period of the closed spatial direction becomes time-dependent. This restriction results in a modified Lorentzian Misner space in which the renormalized stress-energy tensor for quantized complex massless scalar fields becomes regular everywhere, even on the chronology horizon. A quantum-mechanically stable time machine with just the sub-microscopic size may then be constructed out of the modified Misner space, for which the semiclassical Hawking's chronology protection conjecture is no longer an obstruction.

description: The calculable R-matrix method is applied to solve the Schrödinger equation in the optical model (OM) analysis of the elastic nucleon-nucleus scattering using a nonlocal nucleon optical potential (OP). The phenomenological nonlocal nucleon OP proposed by Perey and Buck (PB), and the two recent versions of the PB parametrization were used in the present OM study of the elastic nucleon scattering on $^{27}$Al, $^{40}$Ca, $^{48}$Ca, $^{90}$Zr, and $^{208}$Pb targets at different energies. The comparison of the OM results given by the calculable $R$-matrix method with those given by other methods confirms that the calculable $R$-matrix method is an efficient tool for the OM study of the elastic nucleon-nucleus scattering using a nonlocal nucleon OP.

description: We show that wave maps from Minkowski space $\R^{1+n}$ to a sphere $S^{m-1}$ are globally smooth if the initial data is smooth and has small norm in the critical Sobolev space $\dot H^{n/2}$, in all dimensions $n \geq 2$. This generalizes the results in the prequel [math.AP/0010068] of this paper, which addressed the high-dimensional case $n \geq 5$. In particular, in two dimensions we have global regularity whenever the energy is small, and global regularity for large data is thus reduced to demonstrating non-concentration of energy.

description: We propose a novel configuration that utilizes electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) to tailor a fiber mode propagating inside a thin optical fiber and coherently control its dispersion properties to drastically reduce the group velocity of the fiber mode. The key to this proposal is: the evanescent-like field of the thin fiber strongly couples with the surrounding active medium, so that the EIT condition is met by the medium. We show how the properties of the fiber mode is modified due to the EIT medium, both numerically and analytically. We demonstrate that the group velocity of the new modified fiber mode can be drastically reduced (approximately 44 m/sec) using the coherently prepared orthohydrogen doped in a matrix of parahydrogen crystal as the EIT medium.

description: We study the influence of short-range quantum correlations and classical spatial correlations on the phase diagram of the dissipative XYZ model by using a Gutzwiller Monte carlo method and a cluster Gutzwiller ansatz for the wave function. Considering lattices of finite size we show the emergence of a ferromagnetic phase, two paramagnetic phases and the possible existence of a phase transition which is entirely quantum in nature. The inclusion of short-range quantum correlations has a drastic effect on the phase diagram but our results show the inclusion of long-range quantum correlations or the use of more sophisticated methods are needed to quantitatively match the exact results. A study of the susceptibility tensor shows that reciprocity is broken, a feature not observed in closed quantum systems.

description: We examine the field equations of a self-gravitating global string in low energy superstring gravity, allowing for an arbitrary coupling of the global string to the dilaton. Massive and massless dilatons are considered. For the massive dilaton the spacetime is similar to the recently discovered non-singular time-dependent Einstein self-gravitating global string, but the massless dilaton generically gives a singular spacetime, even allowing for time-dependence. We also demonstrate a time-dependent non-singular string/anti-string configuration, in which the string pair causes a compactification of two of the spatial dimensions, albeit on a very large scale.

description: This is the thesis paper supporting the production WAKE by Mei Ann Teo. A mother commits an unforgivable act by accidentally killing her own child. Fueled by unending guilt, she cycles through haunting dreamscapes of death and rebirth. As her reality decomposes into surreal nightmare, she voices her infinite despair amidst vivid visual and sound environments. Inspired by a true story, WAKE is a multidisciplinary music theatre work that is part theatre, dance, opera, chamber and electronic music. Composed by Jon Bernstein (also known as Disparition) with libretto by Christopher Chen (2013 Paula Vogel Playwriting Award), WAKE stems from real documentary interviews. Investigating the psychic effects of guilt and grief, WAKE explores how—when it feels as though there is no way to move on—we seek a way to continue. This modern tragedy features opera singer Marnie Breckenridge (Dog Days, Time Out New York “Best Opera of 2012”, Peak Performances at Montclair State University).

description: The article reveals the experience of organizing blended learning for geography students using Google Classroom, and discloses its potential uses in the study of geography. For the last three years, the authors have tested such inclass and distance courses as "Cartography and Basics of Topography", "Population Geography", "Information Systems and Technologies in Tourism Industry","Regional Economic and Social World Geography (Europe and the CIS)", "Regional Economic and Social World Geography (Africa, Latin America, Asia,Anglo-America, Australia and Oceania)", "Socio-Economic Cartography". The advantages of using the specified interactive tool during the study of geographical disciplines are highlighted out in the article. As it has been established, the organization of the learning process using Google Classroom ensures the unity of in-class and out-of-class learning; it is designed to realize effective interaction of the subjects learning in real time; to monitor the quality of training and control the students' learning achievements in class as well as out of it, etc. The article outlines the disadvantages that should be taken into account when organizing blended learning using Google Classroom, including the occasional predominance of students' external motivation in education and their low level of readiness for work in the classroom; insufficient level of material and technical support in some classrooms; need for out-of-class pedagogical support; lack of guidance on the content aspect of Google Classroom pages, etc. Through the test series conducted during 2016-2017, an increase in the number of geography students with a sufficient level of academic achievements and a decrease of those with a low level of it was revealed.

description: Silicon spin qubits form one of the leading platforms for quantum computation. As with any qubit implementation, a crucial requirement is the ability to measure individual quantum states rapidly and with high fidelity. As the signal from a single electron spin is minute, different spin states are converted to different charge states. Charge detection so far mostly relied on external electrometers, which hinders scaling to two-dimensional spin qubit arrays. As an alternative, gate-based dispersive read-out based on off-chip lumped element resonators were introduced, but here integration times of 0.2 to 2 ms were required to achieve single-shot read-out. Here we connect an on-chip superconducting resonant circuit to two of the gates that confine electrons in a double quantum dot. Measurement of the power transmitted through a feedline coupled to the resonator probes the charge susceptibility, distinguishing whether or not an electron can oscillate between the dots in response to the probe power. With this approach, we achieve a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of about six within an integration time of only 1 $μ$s. Using Pauli's exclusion principle for spin-to-charge conversion, we demonstrate single-shot read-out of a two-electron spin state with an average fidelity of $>$98% in 6 $μ$s. This result may form the basis of frequency multiplexed read-out in dense spin qubit systems without external electrometers, therefore simplifying the system architecture.

description: We derive an analytical trace formula for the level density of the two-dimensional elliptic billiard using an improved stationary phase method. The result is a continuous function of the deformation parameter (eccentricity) through all bifurcation points of the short diameter orbit and its repetitions, and possesses the correct limit of the circular billiard at zero eccentricity. Away from the circular limit and the bifurcations, it reduces to the usual (extended) Gutzwiller trace formula which for the leading-order families of periodic orbits is identical to the result of Berry and Tabor. We show that the circular disk limit of the diameter-orbit contribution is also reached through contributions from closed (periodic and non-periodic) orbits of hyperbolic type with an even number of reflections from the boundary. We obtain the Maslov indices depending on deformation and energy in terms of the phases of the complex error and Airy functions. We find enhancement of the amplitudes near the common bifurcation points of both short-diameter and hyperbolic orbits. The calculated semiclassical level densities and shell energies are in good agreement with the quantum mechanical ones.

description: The rapid aging of the population sent the urgent message that our cities and towns need to prepare for this phenomenon, and increased attention on how to pursue successful and healthy aging. As WHO Healthy Aging emphasizes that healthy aging should not be exclusive and every person has the right to experience healthy aging. For understanding the development of aging-supportive communities, this study focuses on the East Harlem, which is one of neighborhoods with strong Hispanic identities and a large group of the elderly population in New York City, and explores how planning practitioners can improve the quality of life of our older adults through improving pedestrian environment and street conditions. Qualitative methods are employed including the survey among local older adults and neighborhood streets audition. This study intends to raise greater attention to create a humane and inclusive built environment on the community level in support of healthy aging.

description: MXene-based heterostructures have received considerable interest owing to their unique properties. Herein, we examine various heterostructures of a prototypical MXene and graphene using density functional theory. We find that the adhesion energy, charge transfer, and band structure of these heterostructures are sensitive not only to the surface functional group, but also to the stacking order. Difference in work function dictates the direction and amount of electron transfer across the interface, which causes a shift in the Dirac point of the graphene bands in the heterostructures of monolayer graphene and monolayer MXene. In the heterostructures of bilayer graphene and monolayer MXene, the interface breaks the symmetry of the bilayer graphene; in the case of the AB-stacking bilayer, the electron transfer leads to an interfacial electric field that opens up a gap in the graphene bands at the K point. This internal polarization strengthens both the interfacial adhesions and the cohesion between the two graphene layers. The MXene-graphene-MXene and graphene-MXene-graphene sandwich structures behave as two mirror-symmetric MXene-graphene interfaces. Our first principles studies provide a comprehensive understanding for the interaction between a typical MXene and graphene.

description: This thesis focuses on walkability efforts and implementation challenges in one of the suburbs of North Central Texas, the City of Plano, by exploring two mixed-use walkable developments and conducting interviews with local planners, developers, and academics. While the city has recognized the need for improved development patterns and has allowed higher-density, mixed-use development in designated Urban Centers, there is still a disconnect between the city's objectives and the actual implementation. Site visits to Shops at Legacy and Downtown Plano identified discrepancies including path context and connectivity, segregated uses, quality of the pedestrian realm, continued prioritization of vehicles and minimal density increases. Interviews revealed that one the biggest challenges in the City of Plano is, and will continue to be, the city's urban form. Observations and interviews presented in this thesis reveal that the City of Plano will most likely never be able to achieve walkability on a citywide level, nor would that be the desired outcome. Recommendations are made for potential retrofits throughout one of the sites in order to improve walkability and ultimately create cohesive livability.
A two-dimensional representation of four-dimensional gravitational waves

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: The Einstein equation in D dimensions, if restricted to the class of space-times possessing n = D - 2 commuting hypersurface-orthogonal Killing vectors, can be equivalently written as metric-dilaton gravity in 2 dimensions with n scalar fields. For n = 2, this results reduces to the known reduction of certain 4-dimensional metrics which include gravitational waves. Here, we give such a representation which leads to a new proof of the Birkhoff theorem for plane-symmetric space--times, and which leads to an explanation, in which sense two (spin zero-) scalar fields in 2 dimensions may incorporate the (spin two-) gravitational waves in 4 dimensions. (This result should not be mixed up with well--known analogous statements where, however, the 4-dimensional space-time is supposed to be spherically symmetric, and then, of course, the equivalent 2-dimensional picture cannot mimic any gravitational waves.) Finally, remarks on hidden symmetries in 2 dimensions are made.

War and Grief, Faith and Healing in a Tamil Catholic Fishing Village in Northern Sri Lanka

description: Sri Lanka's thirty-year civil war brought about tremendous suffering upon the lives of the Tamil civilian population in northern Sri Lanka. In May 2009, when the war ended, not a single civilian remained within the Vanni, the former rebel territory, as they had all been killed or displaced. More than one hundred thousand civilians were dead or disappeared and three hundred thousand survivors were held in so-called "transit camps" without freedom of movement. The data for this dissertation is based on extensive anthropological field research conducted in northern Sri Lanka during the last phase of the civil war and into its aftermath over a period of two and a half years between July 2007 and May 2010. It sets out to explain the experience of suffering among a Tamil Catholic fishing community, which, due to the war, had been displaced from its coastal home, Perunkalipattu in 1999, and has been relocated to the City of Santa Marta, an internal-refugee camp. Between July 2007 and May 2009, this community was part of the four hundred thousand Tamil civilians trapped in so-called "no-fire zones," where they suffered violence at the hands of the state as well as the rebels. This dissertation takes a unique approach to the exploration of the community's suffering by incorporating the effects of the war on the community's Catholic devotion and the possibility of healing of traumatic experiences of war through that devotion. The study thereby opens up a new field of anthropological investigation of displacement, social suffering, faith and healing. It contributes, among others, to the anthropology of violence, South Asia studies, and the anthropology of Christianity, and provides unique materials for anthropological reflection on ethnographic writing and the art of fieldwork.

Lett. 54, 5 (1985)] to a result not, in fact, "curious"; the discussion illustrates how to avoid this ambiguity.

Wars Within Wars: Understanding Inter-rebel Fighting

description: Why do rebel groups frequently fight each other rather than cooperating against their common enemy – the state? This dissertation presents a theory of inter-rebel war and tests it with a combination of case studies and statistical analysis.
      The theory conceives of inter-rebel war as a calculated response by rebel groups to opportunities for expansion and threats generated by the civil war environment in which they operate. Insurgent organizations attack weaker coethnic groups when government forces only pose a limited threat (i.e., when they face a window of opportunity), so as to eliminate potentially threatening rivals and acquire more resources to be used against the state. Additionally, rebel groups resort to force in desperate attempts to deal with a mounting threat posed by coethnic groups or a drastic deterioration of their power relative to other groups (i.e., when they face a window of vulnerability).
      Rebel groups’ cost-benefit calculus about infighting is powerfully influenced by whether they are facing coethnic insurgent organizations. Coethnic rebel groups’ overlapping mobilization bases make it possible for an organization to take over the resources (in particular, recruitment pools and tax bases) of defeated rivals and consequently improve their chances in the fight against the government. Thus coethnicity amplifies both defensive and aggressive motives for inter-rebel war.
      This dissertation adopts a mixed-method approach, combining case studies and statistical analysis. My three main case studies are the Kurdish rebellions against Iraq (1961-1988), the Eritrean war of national liberation (1961-1991) and the insurgencies in Ethiopia’s Tigray province (1975-1991). These case studies combine secondary literature with primary sources collected during fieldwork in Iraq, Ethiopia and several European countries – including fifty-four semi-structured interviews with forty former insurgent leaders, their memoirs, and archival materials.
      In order to assess the generalizability of my argument across a variety of historical, geographical and political contexts, I also conducted shadow case studies of the civil wars in Lebanon (1975-89), Sri Lanka (1983-2009) and Syria (2011-), and analyzed an original panel dataset of all dyads of rebel groups pitted against the same government in multi-party civil wars in the period 1989-2011.

description: A model of open economics composed of producers and speculators is investigated by numerical simulations. The capital flows from the environment to the producers and from them to the speculators. The price fluctuations are suppressed by the speculators. When the aggressivity of the speculators grows, there is a transition from the regime with almost sure profit to a very risky regime in which very small fraction of speculators have stable gain. The minimum of price fluctuations occurs close to the transition.

Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study on the third quantization of a Kaluza-Klein toy model. In this model time ($x$) is defined by the scale factor of universe, and the space coordinate ($y$) is defined by the ratio of the scales of the ordinary space and the internal space. We calculate the number density of the universes created from nothing and examine whether the compactification can be explained statistically by the idea of the third quantization.

description: We study the ground state, sum a_X |X>, of N hard-core bosons on a finite lattice in configuration space, X={x_1,...,x_N}. All a_X being positive, the ratios a_X / sum a_Y can be interpreted as probabilities P_a (X). Let E denote the energy of the ground state and B_X the number of nearest-neighbor particle-hole pairs in the configuration X. We prove the concentration of P_a to X's with B_X in a sqrt(|E|)-neighborhood of |E|, show that the average of a_X over configurations with B_X=n increases exponentially with n, discuss fluctuations about this average, derive upper and lower bounds on E and give an argument for off-diagonal long-range order in the ground state.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The statistics of the light emitted by two-level lasers is evaluated on the basis of generalized rate equations. According to that approach, all fluctuations are interpreted as being caused by the jumps that occur in active and detecting atoms. The intra-cavity Fano factor and the photo-current spectral density are obtained analytically for Poissonian and quiet pumps. The algebra is simple and the formulas hold for small as well as large pumping rates. Lasers exhibit excess noise at low pumping levels.

On the dominance of J(P)=0(+) ground states in even-even nuclei from random two-body interactions

description: Recent calculations using random two-body interactions showed a preponderance of J(P)=0(+) ground states, despite the fact that there is no strong pairing character in the force. We carry out an analysis of a system of identical particles occupying orbits with j=1/2, 3/2 and 5/2 and discuss some general features of the spectra derived from random two-body interactions. We show that for random two-body interactions that are not time-reversal invariant the dominance of 0(+) states in this case is more pronounced, indicating that time-reversal invariance cannot be the origin of the 0(+) dominance.

Large enhancement of infrared absorption due to trimer comprised of doping-N and S-S divacancies in the imperfect monolayer MoS2: A first-principles study
Creators: name: Hong, Aijun
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this study, we systematically study on crystal and electronic structures and optical absorption properties of perfect monolayer MoS2 (M), M with S vacancy (M@SV), M with N doping at S site (M@ND) and M with both S vacancy and N doping at S site (M@V-D) using first-principles method. It is showed that the N atom is tend to located between Mo and S layers, leaving one vacancy at original site, to form interstitial N atom. Thus, the interstitial N atom and the S vacancy make up the NI-VS dimer. We study M@V-D with five atomic configurations and find the most stable structure having the NI-VS-VS trimer. It is showed that the absorbance for the stable M@V-D in the most infrared region is obviously higher than that for the other systems. It is revealed that large enhancement of infrared absorption for the stable M@V-D is mainly attributable to the special electronic structure determined by the crystal structure with the trimer. It is considered that M@V-D could be the promising candidate for infrared materials.
An Ultra Metal-poor Star Near the Hydrogen-burning Limit

description: It is unknown whether or not low-mass stars can form at low metallicity. While theoretical simulations of Population III (Pop III) star formation show that protostellar disks can fragment, it is impossible for those simulations to discern if those fragments survive as low-mass stars. We report the discovery of a low-mass star on a circular orbit with orbital period P = 34.757 +/- 0.010 days in the ultra metal-poor (UMP) single-lined spectroscopic binary system 2MASS J18082002--5104378. The secondary star 2MASS J18082002--5104378 B has a mass M_2 = 0.14_{-0.01}^{+0.06} M_Sun, placing it near the hydrogen-burning limit for its composition. The 2MASS J18082002--5104378 system is on a thin disk orbit as well, making it the most metal-poor thin disk star system by a considerable margin. The discovery of 2MASS J18082002--5104378 B confirms the existence of low-mass UMP stars and its short orbital period shows that fragmentation in metal-poor protostellar disks can lead to the formation and survival of low-mass stars. We use scaling relations for the typical fragment mass and migration time along with published models of protostellar disks around both UMP and primordial composition stars to explore the formation of low-mass Pop III stars via disk fragmentation. We find evidence that the survival of low-mass secondaries around solar-mass UMP primaries implies the survival of solar-mass secondaries around Pop III primaries with masses 10 M_Sun < M_Star < 100 M_Sun. If true, this inference suggests that solar-mass Pop III stars formed via disk fragmentation could survive to the present day.
