description: In Front Polisario (judgment of 21 December 2016, case C-104/16 P, Council of the European Union v. Front Polisario [GC]), the Court of Justice was called to assess the validity of a decision that had concluded an agreement providing for reciprocal liberalisation measures on agriculture and fishery products between the EU and the Kingdom of Morocco. The agreement had been implemented by the parties as covering also products originating from Western Sahara, a non-self-governing territory militarily occupied by Morocco. In its previous case law, the Court of Justice had mainly limited to procedural aspects the judicial review of acts related to the EU's foreign relations. In Front Polisario it took a different view, and assessed the validity of the decision also on the merits. This Insight examines the technique used by the Court of Justice, and tries to identify which reasons led it to depart from its traditional standard of judicial review.

description: Using the Hamilton-Jacobi method of quantum tunneling and complex path integration, we study Hawking radiation of scalar particles from rotating black strings. We discuss tunneling of both charged and uncharged scalar particles from the event horizons. For this purpose, we use the Klein-Gordon equation and find the tunneling probability of outging scalar particles. The procedure gives Hawking temperature for rotating charged black strings as well.

description: In this paper, we discuss a generalization of the notion of saturation in graphs in order to deal with induced structures. In particular, we define ${\rm indsat}(n,H)$, which is the fewest number of gray edges in a trigraph so that no realization of that trigraph has an induced copy of $H$, but changing any white or black edge to gray results in some realization that does have an induced copy of $H$. We give some general and basic results and then prove that ${\rm indsat}(n,P_4)=\lceil (n+1)/3\rceil$ for $n\geq 4$ where $P_4$ is the path on 4 vertices. We also show how induced saturation in this setting extends to a natural notion of saturation in the context of general Boolean formulas.

description: We study the effect of Rashba spin-orbit interaction on the Josephson current through a double quantum dot in presence of Coulomb repulsion. In particular, we describe the characteristic effects on the magnetic-field induced singlet-triplet transition in the molecular regime. Exploring the whole parameter space, we analyze the effects of the device asymmetry, the orientation of the applied magnetic field with respect to the spin-orbit interaction, and finite temperatures. We find that at finite temperatures the orthogonal component of the spin-orbit interaction exhibits a similar effect as the Coulomb interaction inducing the occurrence of a π-phase at particle-hole symmetry. This provides a new route to the experimental observability of the π-phase in multi-level quantum dots.

Genetic assessment of taxonomic uncertainty and conservation units in painted turtles, with a focus on the at-risk Chrysemys picta bellii in British Columbia
Creators: name: Jensen, Evelyn Lise
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: As biodiversity continues to be lost at an alarming rate, it has become increasingly important to resolve issues surrounding taxonomic uncertainty and how best to prioritize populations for conservation. Controversy can arise over whether populations merit conservation if their taxonomic status is unclear. Additionally, maintaining intraspecific genetic diversity is of particular importance for preserving evolutionary history and the potential for future adaptation. In order to effectively protect this diversity, species and units below the species level need to be defined. However, delineation of such units is subject to many challenges, with no one strategy applying universally across taxa. Using mitochondrial DNA sequence and microsatellite genotypic data, I examine population structure and demographic history of Chrysemys picta bellii (western painted turtles) in British Columbia, where it is a species-at-risk. I use this system to compare the application of evolutionarily significant unit and management unit criteria with Canadian designatable unit guidelines to determine appropriate conservation units. I find that that BC western painted turtles form a single evolutionarily significant unit, with each occupied site constituting a separate management unit. These findings contrast with the evidence for six discrete designatable units. Patterns of genetic variation in BC western painted turtles indicate that the conservation of each region is important to maintaining regional diversity and evolutionary novelty. I also address the taxonomic uncertainty in Chrysemys, which is ambiguous due to questions regarding whether the four regional morphological variants warrant formal recognition. Despite using both mitochondrial and nuclear sequence data, I do not find genetic evidence to conclusively resolve the taxonomic uncertainty in Chrysemys, however, there are indications that the two currently recognized species Chrysemys dorsalis and Chrysemys picta may be warranted. Overall, this research presents the first detailed population genetic study for this species, which can be used to directly inform conservation prioritization of western painted turtles in BC. Moreover, the range-wide phylogeographic analyses is the most through genetic investigation of Chrysemys taxonomy to date, yet future research involving additional nuclear markers is still warranted.

description: We reconsider the matrix model formulation of type IIB superstring theory in (9+1)-dimensional space-time. Unlike the previous proposal in which the Wick rotation was used to make the model well-defined, we regularize the Lorentzian model by introducing infrared cutoffs in both the spatial and temporal directions. Monte Carlo studies reveal that the two cutoffs can be removed in the large-N limit and that the theory thus obtained has no parameters other than one scale parameter. Moreover, we find that three out of nine spatial directions start to expand at some "critical time", after which the space has SO(3) symmetry instead of SO(9).

Behavioral ecology of the bobcat in a region with deep winter snows.
Creators: name: Newbury, Roberta Kay
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: The bobcat (Lynx rufus) is a native North American felid that is an economically valuable furbearer. This mesocarnivore is an important species in ecosystem structuring, exerting top-down control on rodent populations. Bobcats in northern latitudes face seasonal challenges such as deep snows, cold, and food scarcity. I used laboratory, modeling, and field methods to investigate bobcat ecology in a northern peripheral population where I evaluated, (1) winter diet, (2) modeled energetics and determined overwinter prey requirements, (3) determined home range size and habitat selection, and (4) determined seasonal movement distances and shape of movements in relation to habitat. Bobcats consumed 5 major prey groups: deer (Odocoileus spp.), snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus), red squirrels (Tamiasciurus hudsonicus), Cricetidae (rodents), and Tetraoninae (grouse). Squirrels accounted for 54% of biomass consumed, followed by Cricetidae (24.5%), hares (12.2%), deer (8.5%), and grouse (<1%). Bobcats in northwest Montana appeared to be dependent on squirrels and other rodents in the winter. I developed a strict, but realistic, winter energetics model for bobcats from field data on average movements, body mass, and observed diet of bobcats in northwest Montana. Bobcat daily energy expenditures were estimated at ~2.35×basal metabolic rate. This model predicted that over winter, a 10.5 kg bobcat would need ~5 kg of deer, 15 snowshoe hares, 338 red squirrels, 19 woodrats, and 547 small rodents. Male bobcat annual home ranges were 90.0 ± 12.0 km² and females were 42.2 km². Seasonal home ranges, within sex, did not differ significantly in size or relative habitat composition. Home range composition did differ from availability across the study site, with open habitats being chosen less and lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) habitats been chosen more. Locations within the home range were found in most habitats according to availability. Male bobcats moved greater daily distances across seasons than did the female bobcat. Movement distances were significantly less in winter for both. Fractal dimension of movement pathways show male bobcats moved in a more linear fashion, while the female exhibited more convoluted movements across all seasons. Males and the female differed in habitats selected along movement paths, but varied little across seasons.

Abstract. The admission of ecclesiastic museums in cultural heritage: some reflection in constitutional law perspective
Since museum reached its public function, as the people museum, management problems have emerged for the difficult compatibility between works of art and mass visits, for the lack of resources, for the relative difficulties of conservation and preservation, for the typical characteristics of museums, that are structured as private building and not to be opened to a various public. So we have to outline appropriate and productive management forms, to state coordinating techniques with other cultural or not cultural institution, to solve interpretation problems that stress the current management. On the other hand it is important to improve the quality of personnel and to increase the appropriate service structures to make an analysis of users needs and to simplify, with marketing and communication methods and instruments too, the access of collectivity to museums. With these perspectives, individual contribution and the help of little voluntary associations, which are promoted and supported, can give in the field of museums a micro-subsidiarity perspective, that can be even tested.

description: In order to identify possible experimental signatures of the superfluid to Mott-insulator quantum phase transition we calculate the charge structure factor $S(k,ω)$ for the one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model using the dynamical density-matrix renormalisation group (DDMRG) technique. Particularly we analyse the behaviour of $S(k, ω)$ by varying---at zero temperature---the Coulomb interaction strength within the first Mott lobe. For strong interactions, in the Mott-insulator phase, we demonstrate that the DDMRG results are well reproduced by a strong-coupling expansion, just as the quasi-particle dispersion. In the superfluid phase we determine the linear excitation spectrum near $k=0$ and compare the DDMRG data with results from mean-field theory.

description: Using 2.5-dimensional Particle-in-Cell simulations, we study the kinetic physics of relativistic shear flow boundary in collisionless electron-positron (e+e-) plasmas. We find efficient magnetic field generation and particle energization at the shear boundary, driven by streaming instabilities across the shear interface and sustained by the shear flow. Nonthermal, anisotropic high-energy particles are accelerated across field lines to produce a power-law tail, truncated at energies below the shear Lorentz factor. These results have important implications for the dissipation and radiation of jets in blazars, gamma-ray bursts and other relativistic outflows.

description: Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a subset $B\subseteq V$ of vertices is a weak odd dominated (WOD) set if there exists $D \subseteq V {\setminus} B$ such that every vertex in $B$ has an odd number of neighbours in $D$. $κ(G)$ denotes the size of the largest WOD set, and $κ'(G)$ the size of the smallest non-WOD set. The maximum of $κ(G)$ and $|V|-κ'(G)$, denoted $κ_Q(G)$, plays a crucial role in quantum cryptography. In particular deciding, given a graph $G$ and $k>0$, whether $κ_Q(G)\le k$ is of practical interest in the design of graph-based quantum secret sharing schemes. The decision problems associated with the quantities $κ$, $κ'$ and $κ_Q$ are known to be NP-Complete. In this paper, we consider the approximation of these quantities and the parameterized complexity of the corresponding problems. We mainly prove the fixed-parameter intractability (W$[1]$-hardness) of these problems. Regarding the approximation, we show that $κ_Q$, $κ$ and $κ'$ admit a constant factor approximation algorithm, and that $κ$ and $κ'$ have no polynomial approximation scheme unless P=NP.

description: Metastable charged particles produced at the LHC can decay in the quiescent period between beam crossing in the detector leading to spectacular signals. In this paper we consider augmenting the Standard Model with gluino, Higgsino and wino-like particles without invoking supersymmetry. Proton stability is ensured by imposing a discrete $Z_6$ parity that fixes their possible interaction and makes them metastable in a large portion of the parameter space. We investigate the possibility of employing these fields to improve gauge coupling unification, explain dark matter, generate neutrino mass and cancel flavor anomalies. We find that the masses of these fields, controlled by the flavor anomaly relations, make them visible at the LHC.

A fully automated breast density computation and classification algorithm
Creators: name: McAvoy, Steven M.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in Canadian women and early detection dramatically increases a woman's chance of survival. Until recently, womens' ages were considered the single most influential risk factor for developing breast cancer. Today, the density of fibroglandular tissue within the breast is considered just as important a risk factor as age. Because of this, accuracy and consistency while estimating tissue density is paramount. Currently, radiologists use the BI-RADS classification system to place mammographic images into one of four different categories. However, inter-observer variance has been shown to be as high as 30% and the methodology can be highly subjective. Many computer vision algorithms have been developed to automatically quantify breast density but only a few of these algorithms take advantage of the latest digital mammographic imaging technology. One algorithm, specifically designed to use digital mammography images, is explored in detail. Its ability to quantify and classify fibroglandular breast tissue is demonstrated and its accuracy is shown to be consistent with experienced radiologists. Finally, a modification to dramatically improve the running time is shown to have minimal effect on the overall accuracy of the algorithm.

description: The competition between intertube hopping processes and density-density interactions is investigated in one-dimensional quantum dipolar bosons systems of N coupled tubes at zero temperature. Using a phenomenological bosonization approach, we show that the resulting competition leads to an exotic quantum phase transition described by a U(1) x Z_N conformal field theory with a fractional central charge. The emerging Z_N parafermionic critical degrees of freedom are highly nontrivial in terms of the original atoms or polar molecules of the model. We further determine the main physical properties of the quantum critical point in a double-tube system which has central charge c=3/2. In triple-tube systems, we show that the competition between the two antagonistic processes is related to the physics of the two-dimensional Z_3 chiral Potts model. This work opens the possibility to study the exotic properties of the Z_N parafermions in the context of ultracold quantum Bose gases.

description: A peculiar manifestation of orbital angular momentum is proposed for a zeolite-templated carbon system, C36H9. The structure, being a network of nanoflakes in the shape of a "pinwheel", lacks inversion symmetry. While the unit cell is large, the electronic structure obtained with a first-principles density functional theory and captured as an effective tight-binding model in terms of maximally-localized Wannier functions, exhibits an unusual feature that the valence band top comes from two chiral states having orbital magnetic momenta of $\pm 1$. The noncentrosymmetric lattice structure then makes the band dispersion asymmetric, as reminiscent of, but totally different from, spin-orbit systems. The unusual feature is predicted to imply a current-induced orbital magnetism when holes are doped.

description: We demonstrate that the dynamics of an open quantum system can be calculated efficiently and with predefined error, provided a basis exists in which the system-environment interactions are local and hence obey the Lieb-Robinson bound. We show that this assumption can generally be made. Defining a dynamical renormalization group transformation, we obtain an effective Hamiltonian for the full system plus environment that comprises only those environmental degrees of freedom that are within the effective light cone of the system. The reduced system dynamics can therefore be simulated with a computational effort that scales at most polynomially in the interaction time and the size of the effective light cone. Our results hold for generic environments consisting of either discrete or continuous degrees of freedom.

description: We study the mechanism of orbital/spin fluctuations due to multiorbital Coulomb interaction in iron-based superconductors, going beyond the random-phase-approximation. For this purpose, we develop a self-consistent vertex correction (SC-VC) method, and find that multiple orbital fluctuations in addition to spin fluctuations are mutually emphasized by the "multimode interference effect" described by the VC. Then, both the antiferro-orbital and ferro-orbital (=nematic) fluctuations simultaneously develop for $J/U \sim 0.1$, both of which contribute to the s-wave superconductivity. Especially, the ferro-orbital fluctuations give the orthorhombic structure transition as well as the softening of shear modulus $C_{66}$.

description: Ramon de Perelhos compose il suo Viage al Purgatori al ritorno dal suo viaggio presso il Purgatorio di San Patrizio in Irlanda. All’interno del suo testo si incontrano la narrazione della sua diretta esperienza e quella della discesa del cavaliere Owein, tratta dal Tractatus de purgatorio sancti Patrici. Ramon, tuttavia, non sembra aver utilizzato direttamente la fonte latina, quanto un volgarizzamento francese del secolo XIII, conservato da numerosi manoscritti. Nel corso di questo articolo cercheremo di dimostrare la dipendenza del testo di Ramon dalla versione antico-francese e in particolare da una delle famiglie di manoscritti. Si possono cosí comprendere alcuni errori della tradizione provenzale e si possono suggerire eventuali correzioni.

Ramon de Perelhos wrote his Viage al Purgatori on the return of his journey to St. Patrick’s Purgatory on Ireland. He added up his travel’s experience and the most famous account on the Purgatory’s descent of knight Owein, from the Tractatus de purgatorio sancti Patrici. However Ramon didn’t use the Latin text, but his French translation preserved by many manuscripts. The aim of this work is to demonstrate the dependence of Ramon’s Purgatori  from the French version (XIII century) and from a specific family of French manuscripts. We can understand the errors of the Provencal manuscripts tradition and we can suggest some correction.

description: Building on work on Miura's transformation by Kappeler, Perry, Shubin, and Topalov, we develop a detailed spectral theoretic treatment of Schrödinger operators with matrix-valued potentials, with special emphasis on distributional potential coefficients. Our principal method relies on a supersymmetric (factorization) formalism underlying Miura's transformation, which intimately connects the triple of operators $(D, H_1, H_2)$ of the form [D= (0 & A^*, A & 0) \text{in} L^2(\mathbb{R})^{2m} \text{and} H_1 = A^* A, H_2 = A A^* \text{in} L^2(\mathbb{R})^m.] Here $A= I_m (d/dx) + ϕ$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R})^m$, with a matrix-valued coefficient $ϕ= ϕ^* \in L^1_{\text{loc}}(\mathbb{R})^{m \times m}$, $m \in \mathbb{N}$, thus explicitly permitting distributional potential coefficients $V_j$ in $H_j$, $j=1,2$, where [H_j = - I_m \frac{d^2}{dx^2} + V_j(x), \quad V_j(x) = ϕ(x)^2 + (-1)^{j} ϕ'(x), j=1,2.] Upon developing Weyl--Titchmarsh theory for these generalized Schrödinger operators $H_j$, with (possibly, distributional) matrix-valued potentials $V_j$, we provide some spectral theoretic applications, including a derivation of the corresponding spectral representations for $H_j$, $j=1,2$. Finally, we derive a local Borg--Marchenko uniqueness theorem for $H_j$, $j=1,2$, by employing the underlying supersymmetric structure and reducing it to the known local Borg--Marchenko uniqueness theorem for $D$.

Chromo-field flux sheets as confining gauge field configurations in the SU(N) Euclidean Yang-Mills theory in the Landau gauge

description: For the four-dimensional SU(N) Euclidean Yang-Mills theory in the Landau gauge, we present two sets of gauge field configurations that satisfy the Euclidean equations of motion. These configurations generate four-dimensional chromo-field flux sheets whose spatial cross sections are three-dimensional chromo-field flux tubes. In lattice simulations, they may be detected as center vortices. The first set of gauge field configurations generates chromo-electric flux tubes that should contribute to a chromo-electric flux tube between two static color charges. The string tension for two static color charges in representation r then naturally satisfies the Casimir scaling. Applying a gauge transformation to this set of gauge field configurations, we can transform them into those in the maximal Abelian gauge. These transformed configurations generate chromo-electric flux tubes that should contribute to those observed between two static quarks in lattice simulations performed in the maximal Abelian gauge. The second set of gauge field configurations generates chromo-magnetic flux tubes. When rotated in a plane that includes the temporal-axis and is perpendicular to the flux tube axis, the rotated gauge field configuration generates a chromo-electric flux tube and should contribute to the chromo-electric flux tubes observed in lattice simulations in the Landau gauge. We also argue that when regulated on a lattice, any of the flux sheet gauge field configuration with a finite flux sheet thickness is located on the Gribov horizon in the infinite lattice volume limit. We thus suggest that these sets of gauge field configurations contribute significantly to the low energy properties of QCD, particularly the quark confinement.

A generalized likelihood ratio test statistic for Cherenkov telescope data

description: Astrophysical sources of TeV gamma rays are usually established by Cherenkov telescope observations. These counting type instruments have a field of view of few degrees in diameter and record large numbers of particle air showers via their Cherenkov radiation in the atmosphere. The showers are either induced by gamma rays or diffuse cosmic ray background. The commonly used test statistic to evaluate a possible gamma-ray excess is Li and Ma (1983), Eq. 17, which can be applied to independent on- and off-source observations, or scenarios that can be approximated as such. This formula however is unsuitable if the data are taken in so-called "wobble" mode (pointing to several offset positions around the source), if at the same time the acceptance shape is irregular or even depends on operating parameters such as the pointing direction or telescope multiplicity. To provide a robust test statistic in such cases, this paper explores a possible generalization of the likelihood ratio concept on which the formula of Li and Ma is based. In doing so, the multi-pointing nature of the data and the typically known instrument point spread function are fully exploited to derive a new, semi-numerical test statistic. Due to its flexibility and robustness against systematic uncertainties, it is not only useful for detection purposes, but also for skymapping and source shape fitting. Simplified Monte Carlo simulations are presented to verify the results, and several applications and further generalizations of the concept are discussed.

description: We consider a system of $N$ bosons in three dimensions interacting through a mean-field Coulomb potential in an external magnetic field. For initially factorized states we show that the one-particle density matrix associated with the solution of the $N$-body Schrödinger equation converges to the projection onto the solution of the magnetic Hartree equation in trace norm and in energy as $N \rightarrow \infty$. Estimates on the rate of convergence are provided.

Gauvain e il corpo smembrato: allegorie nell'«Atre périlleux»

description: L’Atre Périlleux è un romanzo anonimo francese del XIII secolo e fa parte della corrente letteraria che rimettere in questione il romanzo cortese di tradizione chrestieniana. Piú che all’ideologia o alle istanze della classe cavalleresca e della nobiltà minore, il nostro romanzo risponde alle prospettive e alle necessità intellettuali della clergie, che si fa gioco dei valori cavallereschi tradizionali. L’Atre Périlleux è condotto, con toni di humour e una trama complessa, su binari metaletterari e allegorici (di cui il corpo smembrato di Gauvain è il simbolo piú eminente), e si pone come critica della decadenza della società cortese, animato però dal proposito del rinnovamento morale di essa.

L’Atre Périlleux is an anonymous French romance of the thirteenth century and it is part of the literary movement that calls into question the tradition of courtly romance dating back to Chrétien de Troyes. More than to the ideology and instances of the class of minor nobility and chivalry, our romance responds to the clergie’s needs and intellectual perspectives, and it mocks the traditional values of chivalry. L’Atre Périlleux is conducted, with a hint of humour and a complicated plot, on metaliterary and allegorical tracks (and Gauvain’s dismembered body is the most prominent symbol of this allegorical tone), so that our romance stands as a critique of courtly society decadence, nevertheless animated by the purpose of its moral renewal.

description: The behaviour of the Dirac field in FRW space-time is investigated. The relevant equations are solved to determine the particle and energy distribution. The angular and radial parts are solved in terms of Jacobi polynomials. The time dependence of the massive field is solved in terms of known function only for the radiation filled flat space. WKB method is used for approximate solution in general FRW space. Of the two independent solutions, one is found to decay in time as the Universe expands, while the other solution grows. This could be the source of the local particle current. The behaviour of the particle number and energy density are also investigated. It is found that the particles arrange themselves in a number and density distribution pattern that produces a constant Newtonian potential as required for the flat rotation curves of galaxies. Further, density contrast is found to grow with the expansion.
