description: We study the problem of convergence to the boundary in the setting of random walks on discrete quantum groups. Convergence to the boundary is established for random walks on $\hat{\textrm{SU}_q(2)}$. Furthermore, we will define the Martin boundary for random walks on C$^*$-tensor categories and give a formulation for convergence to the boundary for such random walks. These categorical definitions are shown to be compatible with the definitions in the quantum group case. This implies that convergence to the boundary for random walks on quantum groups is stable under monoidal equivalence.

Subjects: subject: Algebraic Geometry (math.AG)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: For algebraic varieties defined by hyperkahler or, more generally, algebraic symplectic reduction, it is a long-standing question whether the "hyperkahler Kirwan map" on cohomology is surjective. We resolve this question in the affirmative for Nakajima quiver varieties. We also establish similar results for other cohomology theories and for the derived category. Our proofs use only classical topological and geometric arguments.

Quantum phase transitions: The mean-field perspective

description: To illustrate a simple mean-field-like approach for examining quantum phase transitions we consider the $J-J^\prime$ quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice. The exchange couplings $J$ and $J^\prime$ are competing with each other. The ratio $J^\prime/J$ is the control parameter and its change drives the transition. We adopt a variational ansatz, calculate the ground-state energy as well as the order parameter and describe the quantum phase transition inherent in the model. This description corresponds completely to the standard Landau theory of phase transitions. We also discuss how to generalize such an approach for more complicated quantum spin models.

description: We predict that a temperature gradient can induce a magnon-mediated spin Hall response in an antiferromagnet with non-trivial magnon Berry curvature. We develop a linear response theory which gives a general condition for a Hall current to be well defined, even when the thermal Hall response is forbidden by symmetry. We apply our theory to a honeycomb lattice antiferromagnet and discuss a role of magnon edge states in a finite geometry.

Quantum coherence and entanglement preservation in Markovian and non-Markovian dynamics via additional qubits

description: In this paper, we investigate preservation of quantum coherence of a single-qubit interacting with a zero-temperature thermal reservoir through the addition of noninteracting qubits in the reservoir. Moreover, we extend this scheme to preserve quantum entanglement between two and three distant qubits, each of which interacts with a dissipative reservoir independently. At the long time limit, we obtained analytical expressions for the coherence measure and the concurrence of two and three qubits in terms of the number of additional qubits. It is observed that, by increasing the number of additional qubits in each reservoir, the initial coherence and the respective entanglements are completely protected in both Markovian and non-Markovian regimes. Interestingly, the protection of entanglements occurs even under the individually different behaviors of the reservoirs.

description: We present a method to identify spurious signals generated by finite-width pulses in quantum sensing experiments and apply it to recently proposed dynamical decoupling sequences for accurate spectral interpretation. We first study the origin of these fake resonances and quantify their behavior in a situation that involves the measurement of a classical magnetic field. Here we show that a change of the initial phase of the sensor or, equivalently, of the decoupling pulses leads to oscillations in the spurious signal intensity while the real resonances remain intact. Finally we extend our results to the quantum regime for the unambiguous detection of remote nuclear spins by utilization of a nitrogen vacancy sensor in diamond.

description: We study $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric QED in three dimensions, on a three-sphere, with 2N massive hypermultiplets and a Fayet-Iliopoulos parameter. We identify the exact partition function of the theory with a conical (Mehler) function. This implies a number of analytical formulas, including a recurrence relation and a second-order differential equation, associated with an integrable system. In the large N limit, the theory undergoes a second-order phase transition on a critical line in the parameter space. We discuss the critical behavior and compute the two-point correlation function of a gauge invariant mass operator, which is shown to diverge as one approaches criticality from the subcritical phase. Finally, we comment on the asymptotic 1/N expansion and on mirror symmetry.

description: A poster was presented at the E-MRS 2023 Fall meeting in Warsaw on the 19th of September. General overview of the work :
 To improve the photocatalytic activity of TiO₂, a stable and available catalyst, the optical absorption edge can be moved to longer wavelengths, or improve photoinduced charge carrier separation. Introducing additional materials to TiO₂ can do both. Notably, the added material should be accessible and abundant; carbon nanomaterials seemed to be good candidates for the task. In this work carbon based nanoparticles (CNP) have been introduced into the TiO2 nanotube layer and changes in structural and photocatalytic activity are investigated
Determinants of Consumers Purchase Decision of Cultural Clothe Customers :The Case of "Gundish Meda" Manufacturing and Marketing Center
Creators: name: Tesfaye, Asrat
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: This study emphasizes the determinants of consumers purchase decision of cultural clothe customers in case of Gundish Meda Manufacturing and Marketing Center, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, by considering six independent variables- product, price, distribution channel and promotion, customer service and culture. The researcher used Descriptive, exploratory, quantitative and empirical research methods. Closed-end questionnaire was used in collecting data through convenience sampling from three hundred fifty one (351) customers and potential customers with a response rate of 91.40%. Research Data was analyzed to obtain descriptive statistics, normality test, reliability test and comparing inferential analyses (i.e. correlation analysis, multiple linear regressions, independent t-test and ANOVA) and other analyses with the aid of statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 20. According to the study findings, from all six factors included in the research, namely, Products, Customer Service, Price and Promotion were identified as critical factors that Consumers of cultural clothes perceive to be important in influencing their purchase decision towards Gundish Meda Manufacturing and Marketing Center. The study results have also shown that there is no significant difference among the demographic profiles i.e. age, educational background and income level. Moreover, the variables such as products, price, distribution channel, customer service and culture do not show significant difference between male and female consumers. However, promotion is perceived to be important for female consumers than male ones on cultural clothes purchasing decision. The study concluded that the factors i.e. product, customer service, price, and promotion have a positive and significant effect in influencing consumers purchase decision towards cultural clothes customers purchasing decision (P<0.05). From the selected determinants, product as a determinant is the one with the highest value, followed by customer service, price and promotion in the descending order. Thus, the Gundish Meda Cultural Clothes Manufacturing and Marketing Center should give the due emphasis and work on the determinants emphasized in the study.

description: In this work, we discuss and numerically validate a strategy to attain reversible macroscopic changes in the wave propagation characteristics of cellular metamaterials with soft microstructures. The proposed cellular architecture is characterized by unit cells featuring auxiliary populations of symmetrically-distributed smart cantilevers stemming from the nodal locations. Through an external stimulus (the application of an electric field), we induce extreme, localized, reversible curling deformation of the cantilevers---a shape modification which does not affect the overall shape, stiffness and load bearing capability of the structure. By carefully engineering the spatial pattern of straight (non activated) and curled (activated) cantilevers, we can induce several profound modifications of the phononic characteristics of the structure: generation and/or shifting of total and partial bandgaps, cell symmetry relaxation (which implies reconfigurable wave beaming), and chirality switching. While in this work we discuss the specific case of composite cantilevers with a PDMS core and active layers of electrostrictive terpolymer P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE), the strategy can be extended to other smart materials (such as dielectric elastomers or shape-memory polymers).

It started by adhering to our various laws concerning workers' rights to preserve the environment and contribute to Community development. The study concluded that the telecommunications sector in Algeria offers programs of social responsibility each year, but it is insufficient and is not in line with the problems and privacy of Algerian society. The study recommended the need to raise the social contributions of the sector's institutions, And to coordinate and diversify these programs from one institution to another within this sector.

description: We use Pontryagin's minimum principle to optimize variational quantum algorithms. We show that for a fixed computation time, the optimal evolution has a bang-bang (square pulse) form, both for closed and open quantum systems with Markovian decoherence. Our findings support the choice of evolution ansatz in the recently proposed Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm. Focusing on the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin-glass as an example, we find a system-size independent distribution of the duration of pulses, with characteristic time scale set by the inverse of the coupling constants in the Hamiltonian. The optimality of the bang-bang protocols and the characteristic time scale of the pulses provide an efficient parameterization of the protocol and inform the search for effective hybrid (classical and quantum) schemes for tackling combinatorial optimization problems. For the particular systems we study, we find numerically that the optimal nonadiabatic bang-bang protocols outperform conventional quantum annealing in the presence of weak white additive external noise and weak coupling to a thermal bath modeled with the Redfield master equation.

description: Achondroplasia (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man [OMIM] 100800), is considered as a form of skeletal dysplasia dwarfism that manifests with stunted stature and disproportionate limb shortening. Achondroplasia is of special interest in the field of dentistry because of its characteristic craniofacial features which include relative macrocephaly, depressed nasal bridge and maxillary hypoplasia. Presence of large head, implanted shunt, airway obstruction and difficulty in head control requires special precautions during dental management. The current case report highlights the orofacial manifestations of Achondroplasia in a young pediatric patient, along with the multidisciplinary treatment (including the dental treatment) done for the patient which also might help the general practitioners in better understanding of the condition.

description: We consider a quantum system dynamics caused by successive selective and non-selective measurements of the probe coupled to the system. For the finite measurement rate $τ^{-1}$ and the system-probe interaction strength $γ$ we derive analytical evolution equations in the stroboscopic limit $τ\rightarrow 0$ and $γ^2 τ= {\rm const}$, which can be considered as a deviation from the Zeno subspace dynamics on a longer timescale $T \sim (γ^2 τ)^{-1} \gg γ^{-1}$. Non-linear quantum dynamics is analyzed for selective stroboscopic projective measurements of an arbitrary rank. Non-selective measurements are shown to induce the semigroup dynamics of the system-probe aggregate. Both non-linear and decoherent effects become significant at the timescale $T \sim (γ^2 τ)^{-1}$, which is illustrated by a number of examples.

description: Paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH) also known as ‘Marchiafava Micheli syn-drome’ is a rare condition which can lead to both acute and chronic forms of renal failure through renal tubular haemosiderin deposition. A 45-year-old lady with underlying PNH, pre-sented with complaints of fever, productive cough followed by dark coloured urine. Investiga-tions revealed pancytopenia with a markedly raised creatinine from her baseline (from 65 mmol/L to 385 mmol/L) consistent with acute kidney injury (AKI). Renal biopsy con-firmed the diagnosis of haeme nephropathy. The renal impairment improved rapidly and nor-malised over a period of 5 days with alkaline diuresis (AD). The patient did not require hae-modialysis unlike most other reported cases of AKI secondary to haeme nephropathy in PNH. This is the second reported case of AKI in PNH which was successfully treated with AD alone emphasizing the role of AD as a promising therapeutic strategy in this condition.

description: In a collinear antiferromagnet with easy-axis anisotropy, symmetry guarantees that the spin wave modes are doubly degenerate. The two modes carry opposite spin angular momentum and exhibit opposite chirality. Using a honeycomb antiferromagnet in the presence of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, we show that a longitudinal temperature gradient can drive the two modes to opposite transverse directions, realizing a spin Nernst effect of magnons with vanishing thermal Hall current. We find that magnons around the Γ-point and the K-point contribute oppositely to the transverse spin transport, and their competition leads to a sign change of the spin Nernst coefficient at finite temperature. Possible material candidates are discussed.

description: Recent direct numerical simulations (DNS) of large-scale turbulent dynamos in strongly stratified layers have resulted in surprisingly sharp bipolar structures at the surface. Here we present new DNS of helically and non-helically forced turbulence with and without rotation and compare with corresponding mean-field simulations (MFS) to show that these structures are a generic outcome of a broader class of dynamos in density-stratified layers. The MFS agree qualitatively with the DNS, but the period of oscillations tends to be longer in the DNS. In both DNS and MFS, the sharp structures are produced by converging flows at the surface and might be driven in nonlinear stage of evolution by the Lorentz force associated with the large-scale dynamo-driven magnetic field if the dynamo number is at least 2.5 times supercritical.

description: Many inhalation exposure studies have been performed with toluene diisocyanate (TDI) in different animal species. Many were targeted at respiratory irritation and/or sensitisation. As there is still no broadly accepted guideline for the performance of respiratory sensitisation tests, protocols used and endpoints investigated are numerous. In this review we collected data from those respiratory sensitisation and/or irritation studies that provided threshold or doseresponse information. Against this aim, and as TDI is a model substance for a respiratory sensitiser, a great number of mechanistic studies are not cited in this paper, although they were checked for relevant information. The literature data available allow the conclusion that both respiratory irritation and sensitisation may be interdependent, and both irritation and sensitisation by TDI is a threshold phenomenon. Across species, the majority of NOAECs for respiratory sensitisation are in the range of 0.005 to 0.03 ppm, whereas the LOAEC is about 0.02 to 0.4 ppm.

description: Computational modeling is essential to the exploration and design of advanced particle accelerators. The modeling of laser-plasma acceleration and interaction can achieve predictive quality for experiments if adequate resolution, full geometry and physical effects are included. Here, we report on the significant evolution in fully relativistic full-3D modeling of conventional and advanced accelerators in the WarpX and ImpactX codes with the introduction of Exascale supercomputing and AI/ML models. We will cover the first PIC simulations on an Exascale machine, the need for and evolution of open standards, and based on our fully open community codes, the connection of time and space scales from plasma to conventional beamlines with data-driven machine-learning models.

description: In this paper we investigate the problem of detecting a change in the drift parameters of a generalized Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process which is defined as the solution of dX_t = (L(t) - alpha X_t)dt + delta dB_t and which is observed in continuous time. We derive an explicit representation of the generalized likelihood ratio test statistic assuming that the mean reversion function L(t) is a finite linear combination of known basis functions. In the case of a periodic mean reversion function, we determine the asymptotic distribution of the test statistic under the null hypothesis.

description: Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have made remarkable progress on scene recognition, partially due to these recent large-scale scene datasets, such as the Places and Places2. Scene categories are often defined by multi-level information, including local objects, global layout, and background environment, thus leading to large intra-class variations. In addition, with the increasing number of scene categories, label ambiguity has become another crucial issue in large-scale classification. This paper focuses on large-scale scene recognition and makes two major contributions to tackle these issues. First, we propose a multi-resolution CNN architecture that captures visual content and structure at multiple levels. The multi-resolution CNNs are composed of coarse resolution CNNs and fine resolution CNNs, which are complementary to each other. Second, we design two knowledge guided disambiguation techniques to deal with the problem of label ambiguity. (i) We exploit the knowledge from the confusion matrix computed on validation data to merge ambiguous classes into a super category. (ii) We utilize the knowledge of extra networks to produce a soft label for each image. Then the super categories or soft labels are employed to guide CNN training on the Places2. We conduct extensive experiments on three large-scale image datasets (ImageNet, Places, and Places2), demonstrating the effectiveness of our approach. Furthermore, our method takes part in two major scene recognition challenges, and achieves the second place at the Places2 challenge in ILSVRC 2015, and the first place at the LSUN challenge in CVPR 2016. Finally, we directly test the learned representations on other scene benchmarks, and obtain the new state-of-the-art results on the MIT Indoor67 (86.7\%) and SUN397 (72.0\%). We release the code and models at~\url{https://github.com/wanglimin/MRCNN-Scene-Recognition}.

description: Porter's generic competitive strategies have been hypothesized by many researchers to have an influence on performance, profitability and customer satisfaction. Amongst stiff competition, it is important that appropriate strategies are used to ensure this aim is achieved. This study was set to determine the effect of Porter's Generic Competitive Strategies (cost leadership, Differentiation and Focused strategies) on Profitability of Commercial Bank of Ethiopia. This study has applied explanatory research design and employed purposive sampling technique in the selection of the respondents because the scope of this study was limited to marketing department of CBE at head office. Thus, the sampling size and the population of the study were all one hundred twenty one (121) marketing department staffs working at head office. The study used a questionnaire to gather primary data from the respondents and review of published documents collect secondary data. Data collected was analyzed for descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (correlation and regression) by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) computer software version 20. The findings indicated that there was a significant correlation between cost leadership strategy and profitability which was measured by foreign exchange rate, operating expense and non-performing loan. There was also a significant correlation between differentiation strategy and profitability which was measured by brand position and quality of products/services. Regarding to technological advancement, convenient ATM service and Secured banking system had a significant positive effect on profitability. However, Automated Financial Services and Card-linked banking services had no a significant effect on profitability of the bank. It can also be indicated that there was a significant effect of focus strategy and profitability which was measured by IFB and e-banking as focus strategy variables. The study recommended that CBE should minimize the rate of non- performing loans and the bank should be advanced in banking technology such as enhancing digital banking services. It is also recommended that similar studies be carried out in private commercial banks in Ethiopia for comparison purposes and similar research studies should also be conducted in other economic sectors

Antumbra

Publisher: name: University of Melbourne
Year: 2023
Subjects: Music composition and improvisation
Music not elsewhere classified

description: The antumbra (from Latin ante, "before") is the region from which an occluding body appears entirely within the disc of a light source. Most often associated with the sun and moon, an observer in the antumbra region would experience an annular eclipse, in which a bright ring is visible around the eclipsing body. If the observer moves closer to the light source, the apparent size of the occluding body increases until it causes a full umbra. The three movements (I - Suspended, II - Canon, III - Time) of this composition are a play on this phenomena, where the percussionists part mostly functions as an occluding body and the electronic track drifts and projects around the acoustic percussion like a light source responding to a solid object.

description: Isospectral transformations of exactly solvable models constitute a fruitful method for obtaining new structures with prescribed properties. In this paper we study the stability group of the Dirac algebra in honeycomb lattices representing graphene or boron nitride. New crystalline arrays with conical (Dirac) points are obtained; in particular, a model for dichalcogenide monolayers is proposed and analyzed. In our studies we encounter unitary and non-unitary transformations. We show that the latter give rise to $\mbox{$\cal P\,$}\mbox{$\cal T\,$}$-symmetric Hamiltonians, in compliance with known results in the context of boosted Dirac equations. The results of the unitary part are applied to the description of invariant bandgaps and dispersion relations in materials such as MoS$_2$. A careful construction based on atomic orbitals is proposed and the resulting dispersion relation is compared with previous results obtained through DFT.

Atomistic study of electrostatics and carrier transport properties of CNT@MS2 (M= Mo,W) and CNT@BN core-shell nanotubes

description: In this work we present an ab-initio study of electronic properties of 1 dimensional (1D) core-shell nanostructures made of MS2 (MoS2, WS2) or BN armchair nanotube encapsulated carbon nanotubes (CNT). With local density approximation (LDA) in density functional theory (DFT) we calculate the bandstructure, carrier effective masses, various fundamental electrostatic features and optical absorption in such core-shell tubes. The carrier transport in these structures are important for nanoelectronics applications and are studied with the Greens function formalism. Simulations show a moderate indirect band gap in the core-shell CNT@MS2 tubes while the CNT@BN shows metallic nature. The varying chirality of CNT strongly affects the carrier effective masses of the CNT@MS2 structure. Electron density is found to be much more localized near the atom cores and stronger in magnitude for the CNT@BN while the W atoms show a more prominent electron-gas presence around them than Mo atoms as found in the electron localization functions. In the CNT@MS2 systems the electrostatic difference potential indicates a drive to transfer charge from the metal to the S atoms in the shell. In terms of optical absorption a strong and sharper peak is observed around 6 eV for the CNT@BN compared to a more broad absorption spectra of the CNT@MS2. Metallic transmission spectra is seen for CNT@BN while CNT@MS2 shows non-metallic transport but with a larger number of transmission states near fermi level. The electronic and optical properties and its possible tuning in the core-shell structures can be useful in various applications such as shielded interconnects, logic switches and optoelectronics.
