Topological phases
Topological quantum computation

description: Topological phases are new kind of quantum phases of matter with properties robust against weak disorders and interactions. They occur in two-dimensional electron liquids with quantized Hall conductance and in topological insulators etc. The description of these phases goes beyond Landau's theory of symmetry breaking. They are (partially) characterized by exotic properties, such as topology-dependent ground state degeneracy(GSD), fractional quantum numbers of anyonic excitations and topology-protected bulk-edge duality etc. In this dissertation, we systematically examine exactly solvable discrete models, particularly the so-called Levin-Wen models, for two-dimensional topological phases. They were expected to describe a large class of nonchiral (or, time reversal invariant) two-dimensional topological phases and to provide a Hamiltonian approach to some topological quantum field theories, which are related to topological invariants defined in the mathematical literature. We first show how to construct concrete models of the Levin-Wen type on a two-dimensional graph (generalized lattice), associated with the data from representation theory (the 3j- and 6j-symbols) of finite groups or quantum groups. Then an operator approach is developed to deal with the properties of the models, such as topology-dependent GSD and fractional quantum numbers for quasiparticle excitations. In this approach we are able to demonstrate the topological invariance/symmetry of the models under the mutation transformations of the graph on which the system lives, and explore this invariance to compute the topology-dependent GSD on a torus. Moreover, we use the operator approach to study the fluxon excitations, i.e., quasiparticles living on plaquettes, and to exhibit their fractional exchange (braiding) and exclusion statistics. Also, we explicitly show the correspondence between the degenerate ground states and the quasiparticle excitations: (1) the GSD on a torus is equal to the number of quasiparticle species; and (2) the modular matrices S and T obtained from the modular transformation of the torus for the ground states coincide with those obtained from the fractional exchange statistics of quasiparticles. In this way the present study reveals the first time in the literature the Hilbert space structure for the degenerate ground states as well as that for the excited states, and the interconnection between them in the Levin-Wen models.

description:
This thesis examines a single intentional community through the lens of experimentation. Using ethnographic methodologies, the research explores how experimentation is experienced and facilitated in the day-to-day life of a single British intentional community. Data were collected using a range of qualitative methodologies, including: participation observation, fieldwork notes and diaries and community documents. Data were analysed using grounded theory. Three core themes were identified: Decision making, Purpose and vision, and Age, ageing and the passing of time. From these, nine key findings were identified. 1) Living in an intentional community is, in and of itself, an experimental thing to do. The ‘act’ of living communally is an ongoing and lived experiment. 2) Decision making in groups with long term relationships are dynamically different. 3) Decision making that is not profit incentivised creates different types of experimental opportunities. 4) Non-hierarchical organisations initiate change through distributed responsibility and therefore offer more opportunity for non-decision making. 5) The day-to-day can often overshadow space and time for experimentation. 6) Long term embedded forms of experimentation found within intentional communities is both Big C and Little C (where C is creativity). 7) Internal experimentation becomes harder as communities become more stable and secure (in particular, financially secure). 8) Bureaucracy helps to set parameters and guidelines, but without regular opportunities for review also have the potential to constrain and inhibit experimentality. 9) Collective temporalities change the nature of experimentality.

description: Clinical and/or hemodynamic studies were carried out on 39 patients with mitral stenosis, before and after surgery.  Criteria have been established for more precise diagnosis and an attempt has been made to evaluate objectively the results of mitral surgery.  To determine the significance of mitral stenosis, in the presence of mitral insufficiency, no single criterion was infallible.  The contour of pulmonary artery "wedge" pressure tracing was sometimes helpful; otherwise the hemodynamic data were of not value.  In general, the following criteria were found helpful in distinguishing predominance of mitral stenosis or insufficiency, in this series (Mitral Stenosis 1. opening snap, 2. accentuated first heart sound at apex, 3. absence of loud systolic murmur at apex, 4. normal sized heart, and 5. electrocardiographic evidence of mitral P waves, incomplete right bundle branch block or right ventricular hypertrophy; Mitral Insufficiency 1. loud apical systolic murmur, 2. enlarged heart with left ventricular enlargement, and 3 tall V waves in PA "wedge" pressure tracing).  Hemodynamic data were found to be very helpful in evaluating the degree of incapacitation of those patients with mitral stenosis in whom the subjective complaints were out of proportion the objective clinical findings. It is concluded that the presence of normal hemodynamics is a definite contraindication to mitral surgery in spite of any clinical findings.  The results of surgery were independent of the presence of a slight amount of mitral regurgitation, the initial value of pulmonary resistance, or the microscopic finding in the auricular biopsy.  Objective evidence of improvement was found by electrocardiogram, x-ray and hemodynamic data in 70% of the patients with pure of predominant mitral stenosis who improved subjectively.  It is stressed that a conclusion concerning the results of surgery in any given case should be reserve until objective data are available to substantiate the subjective and clinical improvement.

description: Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) deaminate adenosines in doublestranded RNA (dsRNA) to produce inosines. The extent an adenosine is edited depends on the sequence context of the target adenosine. Human ADAR2 (hADAR2) has a 5' nearest neighbor preference of U>A>C>G and a 3' preference of G>C>U«A, but it is not known which amino acids mediate these preferences. Previous studies show that preferences are derived mainly from the catalytic domain. Thus, we adapted a previously reported screen in yeast to identify mutations in the hADAR2 catalytic domain that allow editing of an adenosine in context of a disfavored triplet, GAC. A favored triplet, UAG, was used as the positive control. Hairpin substrates containing disfavored GAC and favored UAG were based on the R/G editing site of GRIA2 (glutamate receptor, ionotropic, AMPA 2) pre-mRNA, a well-studied endogenous substrate for hADAR2. Four mutants that edited GAC more than WT hADAR2 (E488Q, V493T, N597K and N613K) and one mutant that did not edit GAC (T490A) were further characterized by determining their binding affinity, catalytic rate, base-flipping and preferences to understand the effect of these mutations on ADAR reactivity. Gel-shift assays showed two mutants, N597K and N613K, had ~2-fold higher binding affinity compared to WT hADAR2, suggesting these mutants may have been selected in the screen due to tighter binding. Other mutants E488Q, T490A and V493T, which are on a highly conserved loop close to the active site, showed similar binding affinity as WT hADAR2 for both UAG and GAC, indicating discrimination was not derived from differences in binding affinity. We also determined catalytic rates, and probed base-flipping by substituting the target adenosine with the fluorescent base analog 2-aminopurine (2-AP). Remarkably, with both UAG and GAC substrates, mutants with similar binding affinity showed a correlation between catalytic rate and base-flipping, as indicated by a change in 2-AP fluorescence intensity (FI). Our data provide the first information on the residues important for preferences, and point to a conserved loop as key. Unexpectedly, our data suggest that hADAR2's preferences are derived from differences in base-flipping, rather than direct recognition of the neighboring base.

description: The main purposes of this descriptive, repeated measures methodological study were to (a) examine the psychometric properties (reliabilities and validities) of the Chinese versions of the Cancer Fatigue Scale (C-CFS), the Fatigue Symptom Inventory (C-FSI), and the Schwartz Cancer Fatigue Scale-revised (C-SCFS-r) in cancer outpatients receiving chemotherapy and (b) evaluate the instruments in terms of the ease of use, sensitivity to change, and cultural appropriateness (i.e., semantic equivalence, content equivalence, and conceptual equivalence) for Taiwanese cancer outpatients. Convenience sampling was used to recruit cancer outpatients receiving chemotherapy in a clinical setting in northern Taiwan. Data were collected twice: on the day when cancer patients were receiving chemotherapy treatment (T1), and 2 days posttreatment at home (T2). Two hundred forty-three cancer outpatients were recruited at T1 and 149 patients completed T2. Findings indicated that the three scales had good internal consistency (Cronbach's alphas for three total scales > .80), were brief (less than 6 min to complete), valid (confirmed by convergent, divergent, and discriminant validity), and feasible measures (completion rates > 97%) of fatigue for use with Taiwanese cancer patients. However, 27% of cancer patients reported that the C-FSI was difficult for them to complete. The content in the three scales were relevant to the phenomena of fatigue but did not represent the whole concept of fatigue in Taiwan. Only the C-CFS was similar to the original construct. The three scales were sensitive to change over 2 days. Cohen's effect sizes for the C-CFS, C-SCFS-r, and C-FSI were 0.87, 0.90, and 0.70, respectively. Glass's effect sizes for the C-CFS, C-SCFS-r, and C-FSI were 1.02, 1.40, and 0.65, respectively. The scores for the 'small change' group for the C-CFS, C-SCFS-r and C-FSI were .51, .73, and 1.11, respectively. Even though the three translated scales have been validated, further study is needed to explore the experience of fatigue among cancer patients in Taiwan from the patients' perspective. This study helps support the psychometric properties of the three scales and also emphasizes the importance of assessing scales' cultural appropriateness in a specific population.

In vivo 31p NMR as a noninvasive tool to study rodent cerebral metabolism as a function of age
Creators: name: Stolk, Jacob Abraham
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2012
Subjects: Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
Rats

description: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies were performed with a two turn copper foil surface coil employing a unique transposition design that incorporates an explicit center tap ground of a widened bottom layer. Flexibility permitted easy conformation to tissues of interest thereby enhancing coil performance. Dielectric and inductive losses were thus reduced via effective shielding of electric fields and uniform distribution of magnetic fields. Construction details of the crossover coil and performance data for coils of varied dimensions are given.  To establish age variant spectral saturation, apparent 31P longitudinal relaxation times, T1, values were measured for brain phosphates in young (5-6 mo), mature (11-12 mo), and aged rats (23-24 mo). Significant differences were found for alpha-, and beta-phosphate groups of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and bone phosphate. A large, but nonsignificant change between young and mature rats was noted for the T1 of inorganic phosphate. Age related changes in tissue composition and biochemistry are discussed as possible contributors to these results.  To assess the senescent response to stress, cerebral phosphate metabolism during mild hypoxia in young, mature and old rats was studied. Young rats displayed a greater drop in phosphocreatine (PCr), an earlier and greater onset of acidosis, and a larger rise in inorganic phosphate (Pi) than either the mature or old animals. PCr and intracellular pH (pHi) levels stayed low while Pi remained elevated after normoxia was reinstated. In contrast, all metabolite levels in the mature and senescent rats return to within 10% of control levels. Thus, young animals appear to maintain adequate ATP levels via increased anaerobic glycolysis thereby developing severe acidosis, while mature and senescent animals appear to maintain ATP levels by increased oxidative respiration rates. Speculations to explain this disparity are discussed in detail.  The measurement of cerebral blood flow (CBF) via deuterium washout kinetics was developed in anticipation of calculating cerebral metabolic rates of oxygen (CMR[O2).  Initially investigated on a vertical NMR system, the technique was found to have less complications when measured with the animal in a horizontal position. Values of global cerebral blood flow were similar to cited literature.

Bayesian and frequentist inference derived from evidentiary first principles with applications to propagating uncertainty about statistical methods
Creators: name: Bickel, David R.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022
Subjects: approximate confidence distribution
general principle of maximum entropy

description: Unquantified uncertainty about probabilistic model assumptions tends to inflate claims of statistical significance, potentially leading to reported results that cannot be replicated. The same bias occurs at a higher level when Bayesian inference or frequentist inference is chosen to achieve significance in the absence of a way to propagate the uncertainty about which statistical paradigm to select. The objective of this article is to correct that bias at both levels on the basis of evidentiary first principles for statistical inference. It is found that just as Bayesian inference is warranted when a prior distribution is considered alongside the data as evidence, frequentist inference in the form of confidence intervals and their generalization to confidence distributions is warranted when a hypothesis testing procedure is considered as a piece of evidence. Hierarchical evidence in the same framework enables reporting results reflecting uncertainty about which of those pieces of evidence to admit as well as uncertainty about model assumptions. Practical results include a method of averaging Bayesian hypothesis testing with frequentist hypothesis testing and a method of averaging confidence intervals and/or credible intervals.

Assessing the Influence of High School Practices and Community Characteristics on Adolescent Obesity
Creators: name: Metos, Julie M.
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2014

description: This study examined the influence of federal obesity prevention policy on school practices and adolescent obesity. The study also examined the influence of community characteristics on adolescent obesity. A sample of all high schools participating in both the 2004 and 2008 School Health Profiles survey years was used to analyze practices over time. Adolescent and family attributes were obtained from the Utah Population Database. School characteristics were accessed via the Common Core of Data. Community characteristics were generated from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance system data collected by the Utah Department of Health for 61 small statistical areas in Utah. Bivariate and multinomial analyses were performed to model the relationship of school practices and community level characteristics with adolescent overweight and obesity. Schools in districts with mandated wellness policy tenets were no more likely to report school environment or health education practices than schools with weaker or no policy tenets. Of the 42 school practices examined, only exempting students from PE was associated with the risk of obesity (RRa=0.76,95% CI: 1.16-1.74, p<0.02). Maternal obesity tripled the risk adolescent overweight (RRa=3.08, 95% CI: 2.54-3.76, p<0.001) and resulted in a six-fold risk of obesity (RRa=6.06, 95% CI: 4.988-7.52, p<0.001). The proportion of obese adults in a community was associated with adolescent overweight (RRa = 1.45, 95% CI: 1.04-1.24, p<0.008 ) and obesity (RRa =1.19,95% CI: 1.05-1.36, p<0.006). Community education level was protective for adolescent obesity (RRa=0.81, 95% CI: 0.69-0.97, p<0.024). Future research is needed to develop tools that assess the ability of policy initiatives to produce meaningful and sustainable changes in school practices. Adolescent obesity prevention policies and programs should address community disparities in adult obesity, income and education. To Doris Disbrow, Barbara Abrams and Zak Sabry who developed my interest in public health nutrition, to Tim Metos for his support and to Thomas and Grace in hope that you will have a healthy life, full of learning.

description: A substantial amount of research is currently being undertaken to create new anti-Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) drugs. Currently, 14 drugs belonging to three classes are approved for use in the treatment of HIV. Combination therapy utilizing drugs with different mechanisms of action does initially suppress HIV proliferation, however, after time, selection for mutationally altered particles leads to the development of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). To combat this disease, additional drugs must be developed that have either unique targets or alternative mechanism of actions in order to avoid cross-resistance with the established drugs. Previous work in this lab has defined a new class of HIV inhibitors. Various thiolated amphipathic polyribonucleotides that are "senseless" and have no hydrogen bonding potential, are shown to have submicromolar activity against HIV and additionally against HCMV. Though the mechanism of HCMV inhibition is not known it has been theorized that in a HIV infected cell, the macromolecules are acting as antitemplates and interfering with the transcriptional process of reverse transcriptase (RT). Pursuit of analogs has identified a new subclass of highly active homopolymers that deviate from the previously established SAR. Among the most active compounds are poly (1-propargylinosinic acid), 2'-O-methyl-1-allylinosinic acid phosphorothioate 33-mer and a oligomer incorporating 1-propargyl-6-thioinosinic acid residues. Structure activity relationship (SAR) studies within this new group of compounds show that various aspects of sulfur incorporation, polymer length, steric bulk at N1 and the formation of secondary structure in solution are important for activity but that amphipathic character is necessary. Cell uptake studies with a fluorescently labeled oligomer support the working hypothesis that these compounds could inhibit RT in the cytoplasm. Additionally, the data show that the process involving viral uptake could also be blocked by these macromolecules. Described herein is the synthesis and complete characterization of two different groups of antitemplate compounds, their respective biological activities and preliminary studies describing cell surface binding and intracellular penetration.

IFRS and US GAAP: evaluating the United States proposed move to a new set of Accounting; standards
Creators: name: Hrechkosy, Garry
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2012

description: Countries around the world are converging toward the adoption of a single set of accounting standards, International Financial Reporting Standards or IFRS. Many developed and industrialized nations have made the move to IFRS. One major holdout in this process has been the United States of America. Experts have considered United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles or US GAAP to be the set of accounting standards that produce the highest quality financial statements. The creation of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the independence of the Financial Accounting Standards Board has had a significant effect on the perceived quality of US GAAP. Recently, the Securities and Exchange Commission has issued a proposing release that, if adopted, will present a significant step towards the US's move to IFRS, perhaps as soon as 2010 for some companies. There are some important issues that need to be considered prior to the US making the change to US GAAP. Is the United States ready to change? Educating preparers, investors, and other stakeholders about the new set of standards will be critical and most likely will have high initial costs. Security market regulation is key to adoption and application. Currently, there is a lack of consensus regarding how to best deal with issue. Auditors and the audit profession will need to adapt to a more principle-based set of standards. Although the SEC's proposing release pushes the US toward the adoption of IFRS, it is unclear that the US is ready to  toward IFRS must be made more gradually and the International Accounting Standards Board and the Financial Accounting Standards Board will need to continue to work together to be able to create a converged set of quality standards that will emulate the strength and detail of US GAAP and still appeal to compaines around the world.

EVIDENCES FOR A SEMI AQUATIC LIFE STYLE IN THE TRIASSIC DIAPSID REPTILE TANYSTROPHEUS

description: The paleoecology of the bizarre, long-necked tanystropheid diapsid Tanystropheus from the Middle and Late Triassic of Western and Eastern Tethys has been debated since the first discoveries. In the present work, osteological features related with gait and locomotion are reanalysed, and a reconstruction of the pattern of the musculature of the tail, pelvic girdle and hindlimb is proposed. The anatomical correlates, along with the inferred functional interpretation of the musculature support the hypothesis that 1) Tanystropheus was able to lift the body off the substrate when on land, 2) it lacked adaptations for continuous swimming, either tail-based or limb-based, 3) it was able to swim for by rowing with symmetrical strokes of the hind limbs. Rowing is a discontinuous swimming pattern that occurs in animals with a semi-aquatic life style which return frequently to emerged land, thus the proposed model is consistent with the hypothesis that Tanystropheus was a shoreline dweller rather than a fully aquatic animal.

Interaction of calcium and local anesthetics with skeletal muscle microsomes

Publisher: name: University of Utah

Subjects: Pharmacokinetics
Drug Studies

description: The influence of Ca++, several drugs, and pH on the binding of Ca++ by skeletal muscle microsomes was studies in vitro.  A mass-law graphic analysis of the results revealed the presence of three distinct species of Ca++-binding sites in the microsomes, and the binding at only one of these sites was antagonized by local anesthetics and quinidine.  These drugs also decreased the maximum Ca++-binding capacity of the microsomes.  Caffeine and ouabain exerted no effect on the binding at any of the sites.  Procaine was also bound by microsomes, and this binding was antagonized by Ca++ which also decreased the maximum procaine-binding capacity of microsomes.  The sites that bind procaine and Ca++ are not identical because the maximum-binding capacities of the interacting sites are distinctly different.  The influence of pH on the ability of drugs to antagonized Ca++-binding indicates that the displacing activity increases as the percerntage of the drug in the nonionized form increases.  All of the data obtained in the above studies are consistent with the interpretation that local anesthetics of the procaine type and quinidine noncompetitively antagonize the binding at Ca++ by microsomes.  The pharmacological significance of a noncompetitive interaction may be related to the property of local anesthetics and quinidine to increase contractile tension in skeletal muscle rather than to their ability to stabilize the cell membrane.
Fluidized-bed processing of Utah tar sands
Creators: name: Weeks, Joseph Keith
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2012
Subjects: Oil sands, Utah

description: An indirect thermal method for recovering bitumen from oil-impregnated rock or tar sand using a two-stage, fluidized-bed reactor is developed. Ground tar sand is fed into a coking bed with a screw conveyor, where the bitumen is cracked, releasing volatile hydrocarbons and coating the sand particles with a carbon residue. The coked particles flow into a combustion bed, located directly below the coking bed, through a solids control valve, where they are combusted with air to provide heat for the process. The oil product passes through a series of high-temperature cyclones and a filter for dust removal and is recovered by condensers, a cyclone separator, and an electrostatic precipitator.  When processing Utah tar sand from the Tar Sand Triangle deposit, the bitumen product has an average viscosity of about 400 cp (25°C), an API gravity of between 10.3 to 15.8, and a carbon-to-hydrogen ratio between .63 to .68. This product compares favorably with those obtained by others from Athabasca bitumen, processed in a similar manner.  The major advantages of fluidized thermal recovery of bitumen as compared with the Hot Water Extraction Process are (1) low requirements for process water, (2) ease of product and byproduct handling and disposal, and (3) processability of lean tar sands.

Hardiness level among registered nurses

Subjects: Job Stress
Nurse Managers
Staff Nurses

description: The purpose of this study was to learn more about the coping ability of registered nurses.  This study examined the hardiness level of registered nurses.  The three components of hardiness are:  (a) commitment to one's job, (b) an individual's enjoyment of a challenge, and (c) a person's desire to control the work environment.  Registered nurses (n = 130) at an approximately 370-bed tertiary medical center complete the  Personal Views Survey that measured the commitment, challenge, control, and overall hardiness level of the subjects.  The data compared various subsets of registered nurses using the t test (p = .05).  Nurse managers (n = 13) had no statistical difference in any of the components of hardiness to total hardiness when compared with staff nurses (n = 109).  Intensive care unit (ICU) nurses (n = 54) had not statistical difference in the components of hardiness or overall hardiness scores when compared to non-ICU registered nurses (n = 74).  Registered nurses who had 5 or less years of experience (n = 53) had significantly higher level hardiness scores than registered nurses with more than 5 years of experience (n = 77).  This could be secondary to job dissatisfaction and burnout.  A trend in the data showed registered nurses with a bachelor's degree or more had higher scores than nurses with associate and diploma degrees.  The data were not statistically significant at the .05 level.  Other findings showed males (n = 6) scored significantly higher on the control component of hardiness as compared to females (n = 122).  The data also showed that nurses who were previously exposed to hardiness (n = 18) scored significantly higher in hardness than registered nurses who were not previously exposed to hardiness (n = 112).  These findings demonstrate that more research needs to be conducted on this area of hardiness in the nursing field.  The nursing profession must learn how to develop and maintain their hardiness level throughout their careers.
