Critical relaxational dynamics at the continuous transitions of three-dimensional spin models with ${\mathbb Z}_2$ gauge symmetry

description: We characterize the dynamic universality classes of a relaxational dynamics under equilibrium conditions at the continuous transitions of three-dimensional (3D) spin systems with a ${\mathbb Z}_2$-gauge symmetry. In particular, we consider the pure lattice ${\mathbb Z}_2$-gauge model and the lattice ${\mathbb Z}_2$-gauge XY model, which present various types of transitions: topological transitions without a local order parameter and transitions characterized by both gauge-invariant and non-gauge-invariant XY order parameters. We consider a standard relaxational (locally reversible) Metropolis dynamics and determine the dynamic critical exponent $z$ that characterizes the critical slowing down of the dynamics as the continuous transition is approached. At the topological ${\mathbb Z}_2$-gauge transitions we find $z=2.55(6)$. Therefore, the dynamics is significantly slower than in Ising systems -- $z\approx 2.02$ for the 3D Ising universality class -- although 3D ${\mathbb Z}_2$-gauge systems and Ising systems have the same static critical behavior because of duality. As for the nontopological transitions in the 3D ${\mathbb Z}_2$-gauge XY model, we find that their critical dynamics belong to the same dynamic universality class as the relaxational dynamics in ungauged XY systems, independently of the gauge-invariant or nongauge-invariant nature of the order parameter at the transition.

description: A switch for use in an inductive energy store transfer circuit utilizes a quantity of electrically conductive liquid bidirectionally flowable between a position that establishes electrical connection between electrodes and a position that opens electrical connection between the electrodes. High pressure gas biases the liquid to a position that establishes electrical connection between the electrodes, and yieldably resists movement of the liquid toward the position that opens electrical connection between the electrodes. Current through the switch electrodes produces a magnetic force that acts on the liquid and urges it toward the position that opens electrical connection between the electrodes. Switching action occurs upon a predetermined magnitude of current being attained.

A molecular epidemiological investigation into the contribution of fungal spores to seasonal asthma spikes
Creators: name: Anees-Hill, Samuel
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2024

description: IntroductionNearly every breath we take contains fungal spores that can reach the alveolar regions of the lungs. While some spores are associated with allergy and exacerbation of asthma, relatively little is known about direct associations for different fungal taxa. The objective here was to utilise high-throughput sequencing (HTS) to gain a deeper understanding of the outdoor fungal composition across the UK and use this information in an epidemiological analysis against healthcare seeking behaviour for asthma.MethodsA systematic review was conducted to explore patterns of fungal seasonality across Europe. HTS was then used to characterise relative abundances of fungi, using outdoor air samples collected throughout 2021 at two regionally distinct sites in the UK. The sampling, molecular, and bioinformatic methodologies were validated prior to use. The composition and seasonal dynamics of the outdoor airspora were explored across the two sites. Finally, a novel time-series design with distributed lag non-linear models was utilised to draw associations between airborne abundances of fungal spores and seasonal syndromic data for asthma. The use of microscopy-based counts as alternative exposure data was compared.ResultsClear seasonality was established in previous studies, but for a limited range of taxa. Validated HTS methodology revealed similar diversity and compositions of fungi between the two sites, with some influence from meteorological variables. Time-series analyses with syndromic data revealed associations with the genera of Fusarium in multiple clinical settings. Other findings were less consistent, except with use of microscopy exposure data, which revealed associations between spore exposure and emergency department visits related to asthma in children.ConclusionFindings suggest that a broader range of fungi, including spores from Fusarium, are likely further associated with asthma than previously known. Quantitative methods could be developed for associated fungal taxa found here to enable continued monitoring, and potential preventive public health actions.

description: A MATHEMATICAL MODEL is presented to define new inclusions, intersections and unions as alternatives to the usual ones between crisp and fuzzy subsets. In particular, the concept of “the non-trivial content of the empty set ∅” is analyzed.

This proposed model is based on the interconnection of two consolidated mathematical concepts in the specialized literature:

One of them, (which belongs to the field of image processing using Mathematical Morphology techniques), is that of activity  ordering and that we use here in the general context of lattices (L, ≤) and in particular in that of Boolean Algebras.

The other consists of a version in distributive lattices (L, ≤) of the symmetric difference operator Δ, a classic concept in Set Theory.

The utility of the model is illustrated in the following fields: analysis of risk maps, (areas of avalanches, risk of fires, landslides, earthquakes, ...), as well as maps with contour lines: (isochrons, isotherms, salinity , rainfall, intensity of earthquakes, ...). Also in data pre-processing for “Data Mining” tasks and in “Data Analysis with Uncertainty”.

A special section is dedicated to the application of the model in Digital Image Processing using Mathematical Morphology techniques.

Finally, it is justified that the model can be useful in other fields such as Analysis of Formal Concepts, Probability and in theoretical contexts such as Topology.

description: We develop a Green's function approach for the nonequilibrium dynamics of multi-level quantum dots coupled to multiple fermionic reservoirs in the presence of a bosonic environment. Our theory is simpler than the Keldysh approach and goes beyond scattering state constructions. In concrete terms, we study Josephson junctions containing a quantum dot and coupled to an electromagnetic environment. In the dot region, spin-orbit interactions, a Zeeman field, and in principle also Coulomb interactions can be included. We then study quantum Mpemba effects, assuming that the average phase difference across the Josephson junction is subject to a rapid quench. For a short singlechannel junction, we show that both types of quantum Mpemba effects allowed in open quantum systems are possible. We also study an intermediate-length junction, where spin-orbit interactions and a Zeeman field are included. Again quantum Mpemba effects are predicted.

The power supply and the railgun are cooperatively mounted together such that the reaction torque of the power supply upon discharge counteracts the recoil force of the railgun, thereby transferring lateral forces through the compulsator to a position in the power supply which is removed from the position of the coupling between the railgun and the power supply.

description: Existing formal verification methods for image-based neural network controllers in autonomous vehicles often struggle with high-dimensional inputs, computational inefficiency, and a lack of explainability. These challenges make it difficult to ensure safety and reliability, as processing high-dimensional image data is computationally intensive and neural networks are typically treated as black boxes. To address these issues, we propose SEVIN (Scalable and Explainable Verification of Image-Based Neural Network Controllers), a framework that leverages a Variational Autoencoders (VAE) to encode high-dimensional images into a lower-dimensional, explainable latent space. By annotating latent variables with corresponding control actions, we generate convex polytopes that serve as structured input spaces for verification, significantly reducing computational complexity and enhancing scalability. Integrating the VAE's decoder with the neural network controller allows for formal and robustness verification using these explainable polytopes. Our approach also incorporates robustness verification under real-world perturbations by augmenting the dataset and retraining the VAE to capture environmental variations. Experimental results demonstrate that SEVIN achieves efficient and scalable verification while providing explainable insights into controller behavior, bridging the gap between formal verification techniques and practical applications in safety-critical systems.

description: Given an unconditional generative model and a predictor for a target property (e.g., a classifier), the goal of training-free guidance is to generate samples with desirable target properties without additional training. As a highly efficient technique for steering generative models toward flexible outcomes, training-free guidance has gained increasing attention in diffusion models. However, existing methods only handle data in continuous spaces, while many scientific applications involve both continuous and discrete data (referred to as multimodality). Another emerging trend is the growing use of the simple and general flow matching framework in building generative foundation models, where guided generation remains under-explored. To address this, we introduce TFG-Flow, a novel training-free guidance method for multimodal generative flow. TFG-Flow addresses the curse-of-dimensionality while maintaining the property of unbiased sampling in guiding discrete variables. We validate TFG-Flow on four molecular design tasks and show that TFG-Flow has great potential in drug design by generating molecules with desired properties.

description: The objective of the research was the achievement of antagonists of the luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) which would have adequate antagonistic activity to prevent ovulation, and yet would not have a pronounced structural feature to release a histamine, in vivo. Some existing antagonists of LHRH produced edema of the face and extremities in rats. This recent recognition of the edematogenic and anaphylactoid activities of an antagonist of LHRH necessitated new structural changes if such antagonists were to be considered for potential use as contraceptive agents in the human. Consequently, 57 peptides have been designed, synthesized and bioassayed toward achieving a potent antagonist which releases negligible histamine. Since there was no predictable structural sequence which offered assurance of such achievement, it was necessary to design, synthesize and bioassay a very large number of peptides having diverse structural changes toward ultimately discovering an antagonist with the necessary potency of antiovulatory activity and the necessary negligible release of histamine. Ultimately, this objective was achieved, and this application describes the diverse and unpredictable many positive steps which finally led to the objectives.

description: Since searches for the low-lying excited baryons $Ξ(1/2^-)$ and $Σ(1/2^-)$ are crucial to deepening our understanding of the light baryon spectrum, we have investigated the Cabibbo-favored process $Ξ_c^+ \to Λ{\bar{K}}^0 π^+$ by taking into account the $S$-wave pseudoscalar meson-octet baryon interactions within the chiral unitary approach, which could dynamically generate the resonances $Ξ(1/2^-)$ and $Σ(1/2^-)$. The contributions from the excited kaons are double Cabibbo-suppressed, and the contribution from the $Σ(1385)$ is also suppressed due to Korner-Pati-Woo theory, thus those states are expected to play negligible contributions in this process. We have predicted the $\bar{K}^0 Λ$ and $π^+Λ$ invariant mass distributions, which have the clear signals of the $Ξ(1/2^-)$ and $Σ(1/2^-)$. Thus, the $Ξ_c^+ \to Λ{\bar{K}}^0 π^+$ is an ideal process to search for the low-lying baryons $Ξ(1/2^-)$ and $Σ(1/2^-)$, and we make a call for a precise measurements of this process in experiments, such as Belle II, LHCb, and the proposed Super Tau-Charm Facility (STCF).

Investigating long term pattern of technology innovation and gender imbalance in filmmaking occupations
Creators: name: Sirui Zhou
Publisher: name: University of Chicago
Year: 2022

description: Gender gap continues to be a persistent issue in many industries. As many idiosyncratic and institutional factors are discussed, the study in examining female representation and technology innovation is limited. The movie industry, witnessing a digital transformation during the 1980s, is suitable for analyzing the relationship between work-related technology advancement and occupational gender segregation. To find out whether a relationship exists, this research leverages observational data from over 20,000 movies to measure the historical pattern of camera types and the percentage trend of female workers in a position related to camera operation in the U.S. filming industry over the past 100 years. Due to the special setting of the movie industry, where directors can choose to use traditional or innovative technology, this research also sheds light on the gendered difference of technology adoption. This research uses counting approaches, automated text analysis, and regression models to answer two questions: 1) whether traditional technology deters female in career-entry decision-making, and some technology innovation could bridge the gap; 2) As people entering a career, whether a gender disparity exists in adopting and using new technologies. Result presents a strong and robust association of female representation and digital advancement, but the gender difference in adopting new digital technologies after entering the career is not salient.

description: Impurity motion in a many-body environment has been a central issue in the field of low-temperature physics for decades. In bosonic quantum fluids, the onset of a drag force experienced by point-like objects is due to collective environment excitations, driven by the exchange of linear momentum between the impurity and the many-body bath. In this work we consider a rotating impurity, with the aim of exploring how angular momentum is exchanged with the surrounding bosonic environment. In order to elucidate this issues, we employ a quasiparticle approach based on the angulon theory, which allows us to effectively deal with the non-trivial algebra of quantized angular momentum in presence of a many-body environment. We uncover how impurity dressing by environmental excitations can establish an exchange channel, whose effectiveness crucially depends on the initial state of the impurity. Remarkably, we find that there is a critical value of initial angular momentum, above which this channel effectively freezes.

description: A MATHEMATICAL MODEL is presented to define new inclusions, intersections and unions as alternatives to the usual ones between crisp and fuzzy subsets. In particular, the concept of “the non-trivial content of the empty set ∅” is analyzed. This proposed model is based on the interconnection of two consolidated mathematical concepts in the specialized literature: One of them, (which belongs to the field of image processing using Mathematical Morphology techniques), is that of activity ordering and that we use here in the general context of lattices (L, ≤) and in particular in that of Boolean Algebras. The other consists of a version in distributive lattices (L, ≤) of the symmetric difference operator Δ, a classic concept in Set Theory. The utility of the model is illustrated in the following fields: analysis of risk maps, (areas of avalanches, risk of fires, landslides, earthquakes, ...), as well as maps with contour lines: (isochrons, isotherms, salinity , rainfall, intensity of earthquakes, ...). Also in data pre-processing for “Data Mining” tasks and in “Data Analysis with Uncertainty”. A special section is dedicated to the application of the model in Digital Image Processing using Mathematical Morphology techniques. Finally, it is justified that the model can be useful in other fields such as Analysis of Formal Concepts, Probability and in theoretical contexts such as Topology. (Remark. Correction of detected errors).

description: A method and apparatus for selectively sintering a layer of powder to produce a part comprising a plurality of sintered layers. The apparatus includes a computer controlling a laser to direct the laser energy onto the powder to produce a sintered mass. The computer either determines or is programmed with the boundaries of the desired cross-sectional regions of the part. For each cross-section, the aim of the laser beam is scanned over a layer of powder and the beam is switched on to sinter only the powder within the boundaries of the cross-section. Powder is applied and successive layers sintered until a completed part is formed. Preferably, the powder is deposited to the target area of the laser and attains high bulk density during sintering.
The Sustainability of Waterless Dyeing

In January 2015, the World Economic Forum  announced that the water crisis is the number one global risk, according to its impact to society. It is said that future wars will be fought over this precious and diminishing resource. Accordingly,

any effort to conserve water or to prevent its contamination should be considered valuable. It follows that the textile industry should embrace new methods of fabric dyeing that use minimal or no water at all. This is particularly true given that

the textile industry is currently the world’s second largest polluter of clean drinking water.

Tobacco Knowledge, Attitudes, and Services Among Spanish-speaking Community Health Workers

Subjects: subject: Latinx health
subject: tobacco use
subject: smoking
subject: community health workers

description: Tobacco-related illnesses are among the leading preventable causes of death for Latinxs in the United States. Unfortunately, Latinxs are less likely to receive advice to quit from health professionals or use tobacco cessation strategies, such as nicotine replacement therapies (NRTs), than non-Hispanic whites. The position of community health workers (CHWs) as health workers who address health issues outside strict healthcare settings warrants further attention to address smoking cessation disparities in Latinxs. A needs assessment with Spanish-speaking CHWs serving Latinx communities in a metropolitan area was conducted to understand tobacco-related services, attitudes, and knowledge. Results suggest that Spanish-speaking CHWs are mainly employed in community organizations (67%) part-time (55%). CHWs offer various services, with health education as the most predominant one. In terms of tobacco-related services, most of the CHWs (58.6%) assess/discuss tobacco use, yet half of the sample (51.7%) reported low confidence in addressing this issue directly. Some CHWs (41%) expressed that their clients/patients would use NRTs if offered and identified “Financial Cost” (31%) as a significant deterrent to the use of NRTs. CHWs’ score on a Tobacco Knowledge questionnaire was low, indicating low knowledge of areas related to tobacco (4.03 out of 10; SD=1.92). There were some differences in terms of employment characteristics, time spent with clients/patients, and preferences for future training when comparing the Spanish-speaking CHWs with the results from a previous sample of English-speaking CHWs. This study suggests that Spanish-speaking CHWs will benefit from tobacco cessation training that considers their specific needs.

description: Introduction and objectives:
Migraine is a debilitating neurological condition affecting millions worldwide. It is triggered by factors with regional variation and knowledge of these factors is crucial in patient management. Local studies on migraine triggers are scarce. The aim of the study was to identify the pattern of trigger-factors among migraine patients in Anuradhapura.

Method:
The descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at the Neurology Unit, Teaching Hospital Anuradhapura, involving 141diagnosed migraine patients on clinic follow-up. An interviewer-administered questionnaire inquired about trigger factors (dietary-factors, environmental-factors, emotional-factors, physical-factors, hormonal changes and others).

Results:
The mean age of the sample was 37.7years. The vast majority were females (89.6%, n=126) and were from low socio-economical background.
Majority (54.6%, n=77) suffered from chronic migraine while others had episodic migraine. Aura was experienced by 44.7%(n=63). Mean number of affected days by migraine per month was 5.13 days. Mean duration of a migraine attack was 12.6 hours.
Vast majority (95%, n=134) had a known trigger factor. Sun light (78%, n=110), poor sleep (63.8%, n=90), loud sounds (63.1%, n= 89), travelling (61%, n=86), crowded places (60.3%, n=85) were the most prevalent trigger factors followed by crying (58.9%, n=83) and stress (58.2%, n=82). Sleep deprivation (55.3%, n=78) and exposure to bright light (52.5%, n=74) were also common trigger factors.
Worrying (43.3%, n=61), being tired (34%, n=48), arguing (33.3%, n=47) and missed meals (29.8%, n=42) were among other triggers. Menstruation triggered migraine in 35 (27% of females).

Conclusion:
The vast majority of local migrainers were affected more severely by trigger-factors when compared with international data. This knowledge must be utilized effectively in patient management through avoiding identified trigger factors.
