description: We study the creep dynamics of a two-dimensional interface driven through a periodic potential using dynamical renormalization group methods. We find that the nature of weak-drive transport depends qualitatively on whether the temperature $T$ is above or below the equilibrium roughening transition temperature $T_c$. Above $T_c$, the velocity-force characteristics is Ohmic, with linear mobility exhibiting a jump discontinuity across the transition. For $T \le T_c$, the transport is highly nonlinear, exhibiting an interesting crossover in temperature and weak external force $F$. For intermediate drive, $F>F_*$, we find near $T_c^{-}$ a power-law velocity-force characteristics $v(F)\sim F^σ$, with $σ-1\propto \tilde{t}$, and well-below $T_c$, $v(F)\sim e^{-(F_*/F)^{2\tilde{t}}}$, with $\tilde{t}=(1-T/T_c)$. In the limit of vanishing drive ($F\ll F_*$) the velocity-force characteristics crosses over to $v(F)\sim e^{-(F_0/F)}$, and is controlled by soliton nucleation.

description: Let M be a compact manifold. We call a mapping f in C^r(M,M) an Artin-Mazur mapping if the number of isolated periodic points of f^n grows at most exponentially in n. Artin and Mazur posed the following problem: What can be said about the set of Artin-Mazur mappings with only transversal periodic orbits? Recall that a periodic orbit of period n is called transversal if the linearization df^n at this point has for an eigenvalue no nth roots of unity. Notice that a hyperbolic periodic point is always transversal, but not vice versa. We consider not the whole space C^r(M,M) of mappings of M into itself, but only its open subset Diff^r(M). The main result of this paper is the following theorem: Let 1 <= r < \infty. Then the set of Artin-Mazur diffeomorphisms with only hyperbolic periodic orbits is dense in the space Diff^r(M).

description: We discuss a connection (and a proper place in this framework) of the unforced and deterministically forced Burgers equation for local velocity fields of certain flows, with probabilistic solutions of the so-called Schrödinger interpolation problem. The latter allows to reconstruct the microscopic dynamics of the system from the available probability density data, or the input-output statistics in the phenomenological situations. An issue of deducing the most likely dynamics (and matter transport) scenario from the given initial and terminal probability density data, appropriate e.g. for studying chaos in terms of densities, is here exemplified in conjunction with Born's statistical interpretation postulate in quantum theory, that yields stochastic processes which are compatible with the Schrödinger picture free quantum evolution.

description: Statthabende Veränderungen im Geschlechterverhältnis gehen mit Diskussionen über die Tauglichkeit theoretischer Instrumentarien für deren wissenschaftliche Untersuchung einher. Ein besonders interessanter Beitrag aus der jüngeren Zeit stammt von Sylka Scholz, die angesichts einer zunehmenden Zahl von Frauen in gesellschaftlichen Spitzen- und Macht positionen den Vorschlag gemacht hat, anknüpfend an das geschlechtertheoretische Konzept der „hegemonialen Männlichkeit“ (Connell) auch über die Möglichkeit einer hegemonialen Weiblichkeit nachzuden ken. Dieser Begriff einer hegemonialen Weiblichkeit, wie er von Sylka Scholz ausformuliert wurde, soll im vorliegenden Beitrag näher beleuchtet und kritisch analysiert werden. Dabei kann gezeigt werden, dass dieses Konzept wie auch seine Herleitung mit einer Reihe von theoretischen Verkürzungen und blinden Flecken belastet sind, die wiederum – wie im Weiteren argumentiert wird – auf einige problematische ideologische Momente des zeitgenössischen Gleichstellungsparadigmas verweisen.
description: Towards a hegemonic femininity? Gender, competition and the dialectic of gender equality Changes in gender relations are accompanied by discussions about the adequacy of available theoretical instruments. A particularly interesting contribution from the recent past, published by Sylka Scholz, suggests that in the face of an increasing number of women taking positions of leadership and power in society, the gender theoretic concept of “hegemonic masculinity” (Connell) should be supplemented by a concept of “hegemonic femininity”. This article discusses and critically analyses the concept as elaborated by Scholz. It can be shown that both concept and theoretical justification suffer on account of several blind spots as well as ideological biases associated with contemporary gender equality.

description: This dissertation research focuses on investigating the incidence of student self-regulated learning behavior, and examines patterns in student affective states that accompany such self-regulated behavior. This dissertation leverages prediction models of student affective states in the Physics Playground educational game platform to identify common patterns in student affective states during use of self-regulated learning behavior. In Study 1, prediction models of student affective states are developed in the context of the educational game environment Physics Playground, using affective state observations and computer log data that had already been collected as part of a larger project. The performances of student affective state prediction models generated using a combination of the computer log and observational data are then compared against those of similar prediction models generated using video data collected at the same time. In Study 2, I apply these affective state prediction models to generate predictions of student affective states on a broader set of data collected from students participants playing Physics Playground. In parallel, I define aggregated behavioral features that represent the self-observation and strategic planning components of self-regulated learning. Affective state predictions are then mapped to playground level attempts that contain these self-regulated learning behavioral features, and sequential pattern mining is applied to the affective state predictions to identify the most common patterns in student emotions. Findings from Study 1 demonstrate that both video data and interaction log data can be used to predict student affective states with significant accuracy. Since the video data is a direct measure of student emotions, it shows better performance across most affective states. However, the interaction log data can be collected natively by Physics Playground and is able to be generalized more easily to other learning environments. Findings from Study 2 suggest that self-regulatory behavior is closely associated with sustained periods of engaged concentration and .self-regulated learning behaviors are associated with transitions from negative affective states (confusion, frustration, and boredom) to the positive engaged concentration state. The results of this dissertation project demonstrate the power of measuring student affective states in real time and examining the temporal relationship to self-regulated learning behavior within an unstructured educational game platform. These results thus provide a building block for future research on the real-time assessment of student emotions and its relationship with self-regulated learning behaviors, particularly within online student-centered and self-directed learning contexts.

Looking back at a short lived, hybrid act of queer fashion, media and performance art "Martin and the Evil Eyes of Nur" of the Austrian 1990ties under the conceptual direction of Nora Kurzweil one can diagnose a transition from the age of "self-irony" and parody to more militant interventions into the new indifference of art and marketing in an age of global markets and global and local conflict. Hence the demand for a "Queer Triumphalism".
The Mathematical Structure of Superspace as a Consequence of Time Asymmetry

description: It is demonstrated how a convenient choice of the mathematical structure of the quantum cosmology superspace, precisely the definition of a convenient regular state superspace and the restriction of the dynamics to this space, yields directly to an irreversible evolution, in the classical (and semiclassical) phase of the universe, where: Decoherence and correlations take place and therefore give origin to a classical universe. The second law of thermodynamic is demonstrated. Connection with Reichenbach branch system idea can be implemented. Some rough coincidence with observational data are obtained. The arrows of time can be correlated. Time asymmetry can be explained as a state space asymmetry (e. g. like a spontaneous symmetry breaking All these facts solve the problem of time-asymmetry and show that it is time asymmetry itself that defines the most important features of mathematical structure of superspace.

description: Die gegenwärtige Liebesordnung wird in zeitgenössischen Theatertexten meist als (scheiterndes) Anerkennungsverhältnis inszeniert. Der folgende Beitrag geht daher der Frage nach, ob und wie die romantische Liebesordnung Strukturen zur Verfügung stellt, die Anerkennung ermöglichen, oder inwiefern sie aufgrund verschiedener geschlechtlicher Existenzweisen einer möglichen Anerkennung gar im Wege steht. Unter Rückgriff auf feministische Theorien der Intersubjektivität wird mit dem Verhältnis der Mimesis das Modell eines Anerkennungsverhältnisses skizziert, das sowohl die Anerkennung einer gegenseitigen Verwiesenheit als auch die unhintergehbare Differenz de_r Anderen1 berücksichtigt.
description: The worst kind of happiness. The fatal symbolic order of love and gender in contemporary drama In contemporary drama “love” is predominantly performed as (failing) mutual recognition. This article explores the symbolic order of romantic love, paying attention to its paradoxical potential to either constitute or hinder recognition with special regard to gender relations and their modes of being. Referring to feminist theories, the play of mimesis is presented as an alternative mode of inter-subjectivity that allows for love as a shared state of entanglement with an Other as well as for recognition of the otherness of the Other.

description: We investigate the type of dual superconductivity responsible for quark confinement. For this purpose, we solve the field equations of the $U(1)$ Abelian--Higgs model to obtain the static vortex solution in the whole range without restricting to the long-distance region. Then we use the resulting magnetic field of the vortex to fit the gauge-invariant chromoelectric field connecting a pair of quark and antiquark which was measured by numerical simulations for $SU(2)$ and $SU(3)$ Yang--Mills theories on a lattice. This result improves the accuracy of the fitted value for the Ginzburg--Landau parameter to reconfirm the type I dual superconductivity for quark confinement, which was claimed by preceding works based on an approximate method based on the Clem ansatz. Moreover, we calculate the Maxwell stress tensor for the fitted model to obtain the distribution of the force around the flux tube. This suggests that the attractive force acts on the surface perpendicular to the chromoelectric flux tube, in agreement with the type I dual superconductivity.

Modeling and Analysis of Graphene Resonant Channel Transistors for RF Filters
Creators: Lekas, Michael
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2015
Subjects: Electrical engineering

description: In recent years the proliferation of wireless devices such as tablets and smartphones has resulted in an unprecedented crowding of the radio spectrum around the world. The high density of radio signals being transmitted at any one time has necessitated the use of high-performance radio-frequency (RF) filters prior to any receiver signal path in order to protect the device against interference. State-of-the-art filter technologies based on piezoelectric resonators provide good rejection of interfering signals, but do not scale well to cover the large range of frequencies currently allocated for cellular communications. This thesis presents measurements and analysis of a new active resonator technology, known as a graphene resonant channel transistor (G-RCT), that has the potential to be used in micron-scale RF filters that are capable of covering these larger bandwidths. A compact model for G-RCTs is developed that accurately replicates the AC, DC, and frequency tuning characteristics of the device, enabling the design and simulation of hybrid electromechanical circuits. The device noise is also modeled, and analytical expressions for the noise figure of circuits using G-RCTs are derived. Finally, expressions for third-order intermodulation distortion are derived and validated with measurements.

description: The impact of climate change on conservation planning is affected by the availability of data (especially in data-sparse countries) and socioeconomic impacts. We build models using MaxEnt for Egyptian medicinal plants as a model system, projecting them to different future times under two IPCC 4th assessment emission scenarios (A2a and B2a) assuming unlimited and no dispersal. We compare the effect of two indices of socioeconomic activity [Human Influence Index (HII) and human population density/km2] as cost layers in spatial prioritization for conservation using zonation. We assess the efficacy of Egypt's network of Protected Areas (PAs) by comparing the predicted conservation value inside and outside each PA under the various scenarios. The results show that there are many locations in Egypt (the main cities, agricultural land, coastal areas) that are highly ranked for conservation before human socioeconomic impacts are included. The HII had a stronger impact than using human population density. The PA value excess (inside–outside) varied significantly with the type of cost and dispersal, but not with climate-change scenario or Zonation settings. We conclude that human socioeconomic impacts add new scope and insights for future conservation; and conservation planning without consideration of such impacts cannot be complete.

description: Several N-body problems in ordinary (3-dimensional) space are introduced which are characterized by Newtonian equations of motion (``acceleration equal force;'' in most cases, the forces are velocity-dependent) and are amenable to exact treatment (``solvable'' and/or ``integrable'' and/or ``linearizable''). These equations of motion are always rotation-invariant, and sometimes translation-invariant as well. In many cases they are Hamiltonian, but the discussion of this aspect is postponed to a subsequent paper. We consider ``few-body problems'' (with, say, \textit{N}=1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,...) as well as ``many-body problems'' (N an arbitrary positive integer). The main focus of this paper is on various techniques to uncover such N-body problems. We do not discuss the detailed behavior of the solutions of all these problems, but we do identify several models whose motions are completely periodic or multiply periodic, and we exhibit in rather explicit form the solutions in some cases.

description: Background: Cervical cancer continues to be a major health issue in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Despite increasing access to screening, access to precancer treatment remains a significant challenge in LMICs, highlighting a need for innovative, accessible and resource-appropriate treatment approaches, including self-administered therapies.
Methods: A cross-sectional mixed-methods study was conducted among men aged 25-65 with a current female partner in Kisumu County, Kenya. Participants were sequentially recruited and surveyed to evaluate their understanding of human papillomavirus and cervical cancer, their views on screening and treatment and their attitudes toward self-administered therapies. Focus group discussions (FGDs) with a subset of the survey participants further explored their treatment preferences and perceptions.
Results: Two hundred fourteen men participated in the survey, and 39 men participated in FGDs. The median age was 39 years, and 51% had a primary school education or less. Most (96%) were in a committed relationship, and 74% earned $10 or less daily. There was strong support for self-administered topical therapies, with 98% willing to support their partners using such treatments if available. Additionally, most participants were open to supporting necessary abstinence or condom use, though 76% believed their partners might hesitate to request condom use. When given an option, most preferred their partner to self-administer such therapies at home compared to provider administration at a health facility, citing convenience, cost-effectiveness and privacy. Preferences varied between two potential therapies, 5-Fluorouracil and Artesunate, based on their administration frequency, duration and abstinence requirements. Qualitative findings largely supported the quantitative analysis.
Conclusion: The study demonstrates strong support for self-administered topical therapies for cervical precancer among Kenyan men. Additional research on acceptability, feasibility and efficacy in different LMICs could pave the way for these therapies to help bridge current cervical precancer treatment gaps in these settings.

description: The noisy Burgers equation in one spatial dimension is analyzed by means of the Martin-Siggia-Rose technique in functional form. In a canonical formulation the morphology and scaling behavior are accessed by mean of a principle of least action in the asymptotic non-perturbative weak noise limit. The ensuing coupled saddle point field equations for the local slope and noise fields, replacing the noisy Burgers equation, are solved yielding nonlinear localized soliton solutions and extended linear diffusive mode solutions, describing the morphology of a growing interface. The canonical formalism and the principle of least action also associate momentum, energy, and action with a soliton-diffusive mode configuration and thus provides a selection criterion for the noise-induced fluctuations. In a ``quantum mechanical'' representation of the path integral the noise fluctuations, corresponding to different paths in the path integral, are interpreted as ``quantum fluctuations'' and the growth morphology represented by a Landau-type quasi-particle gas of ``quantum solitons'' with gapless dispersion and ``quantum diffusive modes'' with a gap in the spectrum. Finally, the scaling properties are dicussed from a heuristic point of view in terms of a``quantum spectral representation'' for the slope correlations. The dynamic eponent z=3/2 is given by the gapless soliton dispersion law, whereas the roughness exponent zeta =1/2 follows from a regularity property of the form factor in the spectral representation. A heuristic expression for the scaling function is given by spectral representation and has a form similar to the probability distribution for Levy flights with index $z$.

description: One of the basic aims of this paper is to study the relationship between the geometry of ``hypersurface like'' subsets of Euclidean space and the properties of the measures they support. In this context we show that certain doubling properties of a measure determine the geometry of its support. A Radon measure is said to be doubling with constant C if C times the measure of the ball of radius r centered on the support is greater than the measure of the ball of radius 2r and the same center. We prove that if the doubling constant of a measure on \R^{n+1} is close to the doubling constant of the n-dimensional Lebesgue measure then its support is well approximated by n-dimensional affine spaces, provided that the support is relatively flat to start with. Primarily we consider sets which are boundaries of domains in \R^{n+1}. The n-dimensional Hausdorff measure may not be defined on the boundary of a domain in R^{n+1}. Thus we turn our attention to the harmonic measure which is well behaved under minor assumptions. We obtain a new characterization of locally flat domains in terms of the doubling properties of their harmonic measure. Along these lines we investigate how the ``weak'' regularity of the Poisson kernel of a domain determines the geometry of its boundary.

description: We present an exact stationary {\it axially symmetric} vacuum solution of metric-affine gravity (MAG) which generalises the recently reported spherically symmetric solution. Besides the metric, it carries nonmetricity and torsion as post-Riemannian geometrical structures. The parameters of the solution are interpreted as mass and angular momentum and as dilation, shear and spin charges.

Red Mountain Mines : 5 years of closure work
Creators: name: Marsland, Rob
name: Virtanen, Hannu
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This paper reviews the closure activities undertaken at, and reclamation standards applied to, the tailings facilities of the abandoned Red Mountain molybdenum mine. The selection of the appropriate criteria was based on an assessment of the consequence of failure. Design and construction work included water diversion channels, spillways, and a toe berm. The paper summarizes the results from the geochemical and aquatic monitoring programs for the past 6 years. Predictions regarding the potential effects of closure activities on water levels and seepage rates from the tailings facilities indicate that water levels within the tailings would drop and seepage rates would be reduced. Mass loading of molybdenum, copper and other trace elements are presented and the implications for downstream water users are discussed. Despite elevated molybdenum in the tailings solids and the mobility of molybdenum at neutral pH, downstream water quality has not been adversely affected.

description: We model gas phase metallicity radial profiles of galaxies in the local Universe by building on the `bathtub' chemical evolution formalism - where a galaxy's gas content is determined by the interplay between inflow, star formation and outflows. In particular, we take into account inside-out disc growth and add physically-motivated prescriptions for radial gradients in star formation efficiency (SFE). We fit analytical models against the metallicity radial profiles of low-redshift star-forming galaxies in the mass range $\log(M_\star/M_\odot)$ = [9.0-11.0] derived by Belfiore et al. 2017, using data from the MaNGA survey. The models provide excellent fits to the data and are capable of reproducing the change in shape of the radial metallicity profiles, including the flattening observed in the centres of massive galaxies. We derive the posterior probability distribution functions for the model parameters and find significant degeneracies between them. The parameters describing the disc assembly timescale are not strongly constrained from the metallicity profiles, while useful constrains are obtained for the SFE (and its radial dependence) and the outflow loading factor. The inferred value for the SFE is in good agreement with observational determinations. The inferred outflow loading factor is found to decrease with stellar mass, going from nearly unity at $\log(M_\star/M_\odot) = 9.0$ to close to zero at $\log(M_\star/M_\odot) =11.0$, in general agreement with previous empirical determinations. These values are the lowest we can obtain for a physically-motivated choice of initial mass function and metallicity calibration. We explore alternative choices which produce larger loading factors at all masses, up to order unity at the high-mass end.

description: Two years ago, a community survey resulted in a sketch of a linked data approach to nanosafety research [0]. Interoperability of linked data enables the reuse, but linking databases is not trivial. Many resources are simply not FAIR enough for reuse yet, and, for example, lack identifiers, making it impossible to link (find) data. Seven years ago Wikidata was established as a machine readable database, to solve similar issues Wikipedia had (it was hard to link the different wikipedias). In the past three years, Wikidata increasingly presents itself as piece of the puzzle, following the example set by DBPedia in the Linked Open Data Cloud. This presentation highlights a few personal examples of how Wikidata can help the integration of nanosafety research. First, I will outline how Wikidata can help make data more findable. Examples here include OECD Testing Guidelines and the JRC representative industrial nanomaterials. Second, the talk will outline how the EU NanoSafety Cluster projects can be modeled in Wikidata and the underlying patterns visualized. Finally, I will show how Wikicite and Scholia can help make our scholarly research literature more FAIR. Here, Wikidata can act as a MESH keyword approach on steroids. Oh, as a teaser, here's steroids in Wikidata visualized with Scholia: https://tools.wmflabs.org/scholia/chemical-class/Q177911.

description: The meaning of `tunneling' in a timeless theory such as quantum cosmology is discussed. A recent suggestion of `tunneling' of the macroscopic universe at the classical turning point is analyzed in an anisotropic and inhomogeneous toy model. This `inhomogeneous tunneling' is a local process which cannot be interpreted as a tunneling of the universe.

description: Common bile duct stones (CBDS) have a reported recurrence rate of 4%-24% after stone extraction. The most commonly applied stone extraction method is endoscopic cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to identify all available risk factors for recurrent CBDS following stone retraction. A literature search of studies with case-control design was performed to identify potential risk factors for recurrent CBDS. The impact of different risk factors on stone recurrence was analyzed. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% CIs and heterogeneity were calculated. Identified risk factors were graded as ‘strong,’ ‘moderate,’ or ‘weak’ after quality assessment. A total of 46 studies discussing stone recurrence following ERCP treatment were included. CBD diameter≥1.5 cm, sharp CBD angulation, multiple ERCP sessions, postoperative pneumobilia, history of CBD incision, and biliary stent placement were identified as strong risk factors; larger CBD diameter, periampullary diverticulum, mechanical lithotripsy, and history of cholecystectomy were identified as moderate. Other weak risk factors were also listed. In this comprehensive study, we identified 14 risk/protective factors for recurrent CBDS following ERCP. Pooled odds ratios were calculated and evaluated the quality of evidence. These findings may shed light on the assessment and management of CBDS.

description: We study a hierarchical triple system with the Kozai-Lidov mechanism, and analyse the cumulative shift of periastron time of a binary pulsar by the emission of gravitational waves. Time evolution of the osculating orbital elements of the triple system is calculated by directly integrating the first-order post-Newtonian equations of motion. The Kozai-Lidov mechanism will bend the evolution curve of the cumulative shift when the eccentricity becomes large. We also investigate the parameter range of mass and semi-major axis of the third companion with which the bending of the cumulative-shift curve could occur within 100 years.

description: A complex and dynamic network of interactions exists between human gastrointestinal epithelium and intestinal microbiota. Therefore, comprehending intestinal microbe-epithelial cell interactions is critical for the understanding and treatment of intestinal diseases. Primary human colonic epithelial cells derived from a healthy human donor were co-cultured with Clostridium scindens (C. scindens), a probiotic obligate anaerobe; Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), a facultative anaerobe and intestinal pathogen; or both bacterial species in tandem. The co-culture hanging basket platform used for these experiments possessed walls of controlled oxygen (O2) permeability to support the formation of an O2 gradient across the intestinal epithelium using cellular O2 consumption, resulting in an anaerobic luminal and aerobic basal compartment. Both the colonic epithelial cells and C. scindens remained viable over 48 h during co-culture. In contrast, co-culture with S. aureus elicited significant damage to colonic epithelial cells within 24 h. To explore the influence of the intestinal pathogen on the epithelium in the presence of the probiotic bacteria, colonic epithelial cells were inoculated sequentially with the two bacterial species. Under these conditions, C. scindens was capable of repressing the production of S. aureus enterotoxin. Surprisingly, although C. scindens converted cholic acid to secondary bile acids in the luminal medium, the growth of S. aureus was not significantly inhibited. Nevertheless, this combination of probiotic and pathogenic bacteria was found to benefit the survival of the colonic epithelial cells compared with co-culture of the epithelial cells with S. aureus alone. This platform thus provides an easy-to-use and low-cost tool to study the interaction between intestinal bacteria and colonic cells in vitro to better understand the interplay of intestinal microbiota with human colonic epithelium.

description: We study dendritic microstructure evolution using an adaptive grid, finite element method applied to a phase-field model. The computational complexity of our algorithm, per unit time, scales linearly with system size, rather than the quadratic variation given by standard uniform mesh schemes. Time-dependent calculations in two dimensions are in good agreement with the predictions of solvability theory, and can be extended to three dimensions and small undercoolings

Nonuniversality in the pair contact process with diffusion

description: We study the static and dynamic behavior of the one dimensional pair contact process with diffusion. Several critical exponents are found to vary with the diffusion rate, while the order-parameter moment ratio m=\bar{rho^2} /\bar{rho}^2 grows logarithmically with the system size. The anomalous behavior of m is traced to a violation of scaling in the order parameter probability density, which in turn reflects the presence of two distinct sectors, one purely diffusive, the other reactive, within the active phase. Studies restricted to the reactive sector yield precise estimates for exponents beta and nu_perp, and confirm finite size scaling of the order parameter. In the course of our study we determine, for the first time, the universal value m_c = 1.334 associated with the parity-conserving universality class in one dimension.
