description: Although measuring the gas metallicity in galaxies at various redshifts is crucial to constrain galaxy evolutionary scenarios, only rest-frame optical emission lines have been generally used to measure the metallicity. This has prevented us to accurately measure the metallicity of dust-obscured galaxies, and accordingly to understand the chemical evolution of dusty populations, such as ultraluminous infrared galaxies. Here we propose diagnostics of the gas metallicity based on infrared fine structure emission lines, which are nearly unaffected by dust extinction even the most obscured systems. Specifically, we focus on fine-structure lines arising mostly from HII regions, not in photo-dissociation regions, to minimize the dependence and uncertainties of the metallicity diagnostics from various physical parameters. Based on photoionization models, we show that the emission-line flux ratio of ([OIII]51.80+[OIII]88.33)/[NIII]57.21 is an excellent tracer of the gas metallicity. The individual line ratios [OIII]51.80/[NIII]57.21 or [OIII]88.33/[NIII]57.21 can also be used as diagnostics of the metallicity, but they suffer a stronger dependence on the gas density. The line ratios [OIII]88.33/[OIII]51.80 and [NII]121.7/[NIII]57.21 can be used to measure and, therefore, account for the dependences on the of the gas density and ionization parameter, respectively. We show that these diagnostic fine-structure lines are detectable with Herschel in luminous infrared galaxies out z=0.4. Metallicity measurements with these fine-structure lines will be feasible at relatively high redshift (z=1 or more) with SPICA, the future infrared space observatory.

description: We consider the ratios of doubly heavy baryon masses using Double Ratios of Sum Rules (DRSR), which are more accurate than the usual simple ratios used for getting hadron masses. Our results are comparable with the ones from potential models. The Xi^*_{QQ}-Xi_{QQ} splittings seem to behave like 1/M_Q and can only allow the electromagnetic decay Xi^*_{QQ} to Xi_{QQ}+gamma but not to Xi_{QQ}+ pi. Our results also show that the SU(3) mass-splittings are (almost) independent of the spin of the baryons and behave approximately like 1/M_Q, which could be understood from the QCD expressions of the corresponding two-point correlator. Our results can improved by including radiative corrections to the SU(3) breaking terms and can be tested, in the near future, at Tevatron and LHCb.

description: Label propagation has proven to be a fast method for detecting communities in large complex networks. Recent developments have also improved the accuracy of the approach, however, a general algorithm is still an open issue. We present an advanced label propagation algorithm that combines two unique strategies of community formation, namely, defensive preservation and offensive expansion of communities. Two strategies are combined in a hierarchical manner, to recursively extract the core of the network, and to identify whisker communities. The algorithm was evaluated on two classes of benchmark networks with planted partition and on almost 25 real-world networks ranging from networks with tens of nodes to networks with several tens of millions of edges. It is shown to be comparable to the current state-of-the-art community detection algorithms and superior to all previous label propagation algorithms, with comparable time complexity. In particular, analysis on real-world networks has proven that the algorithm has almost linear complexity, $\mathcal{O}(m^{1.19})$, and scales even better than basic label propagation algorithm ($m$ is the number of edges in the network).

description: In algebraic geometry, one often encounters the following problem: given a scheme X, find a proper birational morphism from Y to X where the geometry of Y is "nicer" than that of X. One version of this problem, first studied by Faltings, requires Y to be Cohen-Macaulay; in this case Y is called a Macaulayfication of X. In another variant, one requires Y to satisfy the Serre condition S_r. In this paper, the authors introduce generalized Serre conditions--these are local cohomology conditions which include S_r and the Cohen-Macaulay condition as special cases. To any generalized Serre condition S_rho, there exists an associated perverse t-structure on the derived category of coherent sheaves on a suitable scheme X. Under appropriate hypotheses, the authors characterize those schemes for which a canonical finite S_rho-ification exists in terms of the intermediate extension functor for the associated perversity. Similar results, including a universal property, are obtained for a more general morphism extension problem called S_rho-extension.

Beati patres : uses of Augustine and Gregory the Great at Carolingian church councils, 816-836
Creators: name: Timmermann, Joshua L.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: The Carolingian renovatio of the earlier ninth century was marked by an intensified interest in “the teachings of the ancient fathers.” Where the Church Fathers had long served as indispensable sources for biblical interpretation and exegesis, the reform agenda of the Church councils between 816 and 836 saw these Fathers employed increasingly as authoritative guides to the ordines, the orders of Christian society. Chief among these patristic authorities was Augustine of Hippo (354–430), whose influence in the early Middle Ages has often been cast as ubiquitous and all-encompassing by modern historians. To be sure, Augustine was an important source for the Carolingian reforms. Yet, rather than presuming that his nominal impact was all-pervasive in ninth-century political and ecclesiastical discourses, I shall endeavor to show both the great utility and the discursive limits of Augustine’s name, and the authority tied to it, within the conciliar texts of this period. Despite the purportedly thorough Augustinianism of the Carolingian reforms, “Augustine” is often present via later, patristic mediators, the most significant and formidable among them being Pope Gregory the Great (540–604). Gregory was arguably the ultimate Augustinian mediator for the Carolingians (and beyond), but his great innovation was the development of an adaptable language of hierarchical, spiritual, and political authority, a mode of admonition particularly well-suited to the aims of the Carolingian reform program.
Isotope effect on the superfluid density in conventional and high-temperature superconductors

description: We investigate the isotope effect on the London penetration depth of a superconductor which measures $n_S/m^*$, the ratio of superfluid density to effective mass. We use a simplified model of electrons weakly coupled to a single phonon frequency $ω_E$, but assume that the energy gap $Δ$ does not have any isotope effect. Nevertheless we find an isotope effect for $n_S/m^*$ which is significant if $Δ$ is sufficiently large that it becomes comparable to $ω_E$, a regime of interest to high $T_c$ cuprate superconductors and possibly other families of unconventional superconductors with relatively high $T_c$. Our model is too simple to describe the cuprates and it gives the wrong sign of the isotope effect when compared with experiment, but it is a proof of principle that the isotope effect exists for $n_S/m^*$ in materials where the pairing gap and $T_c$ is not of phonon origin and has no isotope effect.

Assessment of current status and modeling of future capacity for land based food self-reliance in southwest British Columbia
Creators: name: Dorward, Caitlin Emma
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: There is growing awareness that climate change, economic instability, resource limitations and population growth are profoundly impacting the capacity of the contemporary global food system to meet human nutrition needs. Although there is widespread recognition that food systems must evolve in the face of these issues, a polarized debate has emerged around the merit of global-verses-local approaches to this evolution. Local food system advocates argue that increasing food self-reliance will concomitantly benefit human health, the environment, and local economies, while critics argue that only a globalized system will produce enough calories to efficiently and economically feed the world. This debate largely takes place in absence of knowledge of the current food self-reliance status of specific regions and capacity to increase it in the future. This study addressed this knowledge gap by developing methods to assess current (2011) status and model future (2050) capacity for land based food self-reliance in a diet satisfying nutritional recommendations and food preferences that accounts for seasonality of crop production, and comparing self-reliance in livestock raised with and without locally produced feedstocks. The methods were applied to the southwest British Columbia bio-region (SWBC). Results indicated that SWBC production of feed and food grain is a major constraint on self-reliance. Total dietary self-reliance of SWBC was 12% in 2011 if discounting livestock feed imports or 40% if including them. Self-reliance could be increased in 2050 in a Localized food system in which crops are allocated to agricultural lands in a manner that maximizes food self-reliance, but not in a Business as Usual (BAU) food system in which crop and livestock production follows 2011 patterns. The average of nine modeled scenarios for 2050 food self-reliance in the Localized food system was 26% if discounting livestock feed imports or 44% if including livestock raised with imported feed, and in the BAU food system was 8% and 23% respectively. Analysis revealed that both food systems are more sensitive to changes in farmland availability than climate change-induced changes in crop yield. Land use results indicate that horticultural crop production would dominate farmland use in a scenario of increased food self-reliance.

description: The so-called internal shock model aims to explain the light-curves and spectra produced by non-thermal processes originated in the flow of blazars and gamma-ray bursts. A long standing question is whether the tenuous collisionless shocks, driven inside a relativistic flow, are efficient enough to explain the amount of energy observed as compared with the expected kinetic power of the outflow. In this work we study the dynamic efficiency of conversion of kinetic-to- thermal/magnetic energy of internal shocks in relativistic magnetized outflows. We find that the collision between shells with a non-zero relative velocity can yield either two oppositely moving shocks (in the frame where the contact surface is at rest), or a reverse shock and a forward rarefaction. For moderately magnetized shocks (magnetization σ ~ 0.1), the dynamic efficiency in a single two-shell interaction can be as large as 40%. Hence, the dynamic efficiency of moderately magnetized shocks is larger than in the corresponding unmagnetized two-shell interaction. We find that the efficiency is only weakly dependent on the Lorentz factor of the shells and, thus internal shocks in the magnetized flow of blazars and gamma-ray bursts are approximately equally efficient.

description: Label propagation has proven to be a fast method for detecting communities in complex networks. Recent work has also improved the accuracy and stability of the basic algorithm, however, a general approach is still an open issue. We propose different label propagation algorithms that convey two unique strategies of community formation, namely, defensive preservation and offensive expansion of communities. Furthermore, the strategies are combined in an advanced label propagation algorithm that retains the advantages of both approaches; and are enhanced with hierarchical community extraction, prominent for the use on larger networks. The proposed algorithms were empirically evaluated on different benchmarks networks with planted partition and on over 30 real-world networks of various types and sizes. The results confirm the adequacy of the propositions and give promising grounds for future analysis of (large) complex networks. Nevertheless, the main contribution of this work is in showing that different types of networks (with different topological properties) favor different strategies of community formation.
Nonideal MHD Effects and Magnetic Braking Catastrophe in Protostellar Disk Formation

description: Dense, star-forming, cores of molecular clouds are observed to be significantly magnetized. A realistic magnetic field of moderate strength has been shown to suppress, through catastrophic magnetic braking, the formation of a rotationally supported disk during the protostellar accretion phase of low-mass star formation in the ideal MHD limit. We address, through 2D (axisymmetric) simulations, the question of whether realistic levels of nonideal effects, computed with a simplified chemical network including dust grains, can weaken the magnetic braking enough to enable a rotationally supported disk to form. We find that ambipolar diffusion, the dominant nonideal MHD effect over most of the density range relevant to disk formation, does not enable disk formation, at least in 2D. The reason is that ambipolar diffusion allows the magnetic flux that would be dragged into the central stellar object in the ideal MHD limit to pile up instead in a small circumstellar region, where the magnetic field strength (and thus the braking efficiency) is greatly enhanced. We also find that, on the scale of tens of AU or more, a realistic level of Ohmic dissipation does not weaken the magnetic braking enough for a rotationally supported disk to form, either by itself or in combination with ambipolar diffusion. The Hall effect, the least explored of these three nonideal MHD effects, can spin up the material close to the central object to a significant, supersonic rotation speed, even when the core is initially non-rotating, although the spun-up material remains too sub-Keplerian to form a rotationally supported disk. The problem of catastrophic magnetic braking that prevents disk formation in dense cores magnetized to realistic levels remains unresolved. Possible resolutions of this problem are discussed.

description: We develop a model of gravitational lensing in a non-uniform plasma. When a gravitating body is surrounded by a plasma, the lensing angle depends on the frequency of the electromagnetic wave, due to dispersion properties of plasma, in presence of a plasma inhomogeneity, and of a gravity. The second effect leads, even in a uniform plasma, to a difference of the gravitational photon deflection angle from the vacuum case, and to its dependence on the photon frequency. We take into account both effects, and derive the expression for the lensing angle in the case of a strongly nonuniform plasma in presence of the gravitation. Dependence of the lensing angle on the photon frequency in a homogeneous plasma resembles the properties of a refractive prism spectrometer, which strongest action is for very long radiowaves. We discuss the observational appearances of this effect for the gravitational lens with a Schwarzschild metric, surrounded by a uniform plasma. We obtain formulae for the lensing angle and the magnification factors in this case and discuss a possibility of observation of this effect by the planned VLBI space project Radioastron. We also consider models with a nonuniform plasma distribution. For different gravitational lens models we compare the corrections to the vacuum lensing due to the gravitational effect in plasma, and due to the plasma inhomogeneity. We have shown that the gravitational effect could be detected in the case of a hot gas in the gravitational field of a galaxy cluster.

description: We present the results of a ~ 3 year campaign to monitor the low luminosity active galactic nucleus (LLAGN) NGC 7213 in the radio (4.8 and 8.4 GHz) and X-ray bands (2-10 keV). With a reported X-ray Eddington ratio of 7 x 10^-4 L_Edd, NGC 7213 can be considered to be comparable to a hard state black hole X-ray binary. We show that a weak correlation exists between the X-ray and radio light curves. We use the cross-correlation function to calculate a global time lag between events in the X-ray and radio bands to be 24 +/- 12 days lag (8.4 GHz radio lagging X-ray), and 40 +/- 13 days lag (4.8 GHz radio lagging X-ray). The radio-radio light curves are extremely well correlated with a lag of 20.5 +/- 12.9 days (4.8 GHz lagging 8.4 GHz). We explore the previously established scaling relationship between core radio and X-ray luminosities and black hole mass L_{R} \propto M^{0.6-0.8} L_{X}^{0.6}, known as the `fundamental plane of black hole activity', and show that NGC 7213 lies very close to the best-fit `global' correlation for the plane as one of the most luminous LLAGN. With a large number of quasi-simultaneous radio and X-ray observations, we explore for the first time the variations of a single AGN with respect to the fundamental plane. Although the average radio and X-ray luminosities for NGC 7213 are in good agreement with the plane, we show that there is intrinsic scatter with respect to the plane for the individual data points.

A VLBA search for binary black holes in active galactic nuclei with double-peaked optical emission line spectra

description: We have examined a subset of 11 active galactic nuclei (AGN) drawn from a sample of 87 objects that possess double-peaked optical emission line spectra, as put forward by Wang et al. (2009a) and are detectable in the FIRST survey at radio wavelengths. The double-peaked nature of the optical emission line spectra has been suggested as evidence for the existence of binary black holes in these AGN, although this interpretation is controversial. We make a simple suggestion, that direct evidence of binary black holes in these objects could be searched for in the form of dual sources of compact radio emission associated with the AGN. To explore this idea, we have used the Very Long Baseline Array to observe these 11 objects from the Wang et al. (2009a) sample. Of the 11 objects, we detect compact radio emission from two, SDSS J151709+335324 and SDSS J160024+264035. Both objects show single components of compact radio emission. The morphology of SDSS J151709+335324 is consistent with a recent comprehensive multi-wavelength study of this object by Rosario et al. (2010). Assuming that the entire sample consists of binary black holes, we would expect of order one double radio core to be detected, based on radio wavelength detection rates from FIRST and VLBI surveys. We have not detected any double cores, thus this work does not substantially support the idea that AGN with double-peaked optical emission lines contain binary black holes. However, the study of larger samples should be undertaken to provide a more secure statistical result, given the estimated detection rates.

description: We show that the shear modes in the neutron star crust are quite sensitive to the existence of nonuniform nuclear structures, so-called "pasta". Due to the existence of pasta phase, the frequencies of shear modes are reduced, where the dependence of fundamental frequency is different from that of overtones. Since the torsional shear frequencies depend strongly on the structure of pasta phase, through the observations of stellar oscillations, one can probe the pasta structure in the crust, although that is quite difficult via the other observations. Additionally, considering the effect of pasta phase, we show the possibility to explain the all observed frequencies in the SGR 1806-20 with using only crust torsional shear modes.

Leveraging distributed explicit-state model checking for practical verification of liveness in hardware protocols
Creators: name: Bingham, Brad
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Protocol verification is a key component to hardware and software design. The proliferation of concurrency in modern designs stresses the need for accurate protocol models and scalable verification tools. Model checking is an approach for automatically verifying properties of designs, the main limitation of which is state-space explosion. As such, automatic verification of these designs can quickly exhaust the memory of a single computer. This thesis presents PReach, a distributed explicit-state model checker, designed to robustly harness the aggregate computing power of large clusters. The initial version verified safety properties, which hold if no error states can be reached. PReach has been demonstrated to run on hundreds of machines and explore state space sizes up to 90 billion, the largest published to date. Liveness is an important class of properties for hardware system correctness which, unlike safety, expresses more elaborate temporal reasoning. However, model checking of liveness is more computationally complex, and exacerbates scalability issues as compared with safety. The main thesis contribution is the extension of PReach to verify two key liveness-like properties of practical interest: deadlock-freedom and response. Our methods leverage the scalability and robustness of PReach and strike a balance between tractable verification for large models and catching liveness violations. Deadlock-freedom holds if from all reachable system states, there exists a sequence of actions that will complete all pending transactions. We find that checking this property is only a small overhead as compared to safety checking. We also provide a technique for establishing that deadlock-freedom holds of a parameterized system -- a system with a variable number of entities. Response is a stronger property than deadlock-freedom and is the most common liveness property of interest. In practical cases, fairness must be imposed on system models when model checking response to exclude those execution traces deemed inconsistent with the expected underlying hardware. We implemented a novel twist on established model checking algorithms, to target response properties with action-based fairness. This implementation vastly out-performs competing tools. This thesis shows that tractable verification of interesting liveness properties in large protocol models is possible.

description: Gaia will only achieve its unprecedented measurement accuracy requirements with detailed calibration and correction for radiation damage. We present our Silvaco 3D engineering software model of the Gaia CCD pixel and two of its applications for Gaia: (1) physically interpreting supplementary buried channel (SBC) capacity measurements (pocket-pumping and first pixel response) in terms of e2v manufacturing doping alignment tolerances; and (2) deriving electron densities within a charge packet as a function of the number of constituent electrons and 3D position within the charge packet as input to microscopic models being developed to simulate radiation damage.

description: This deliverable describes the work done in T2.1 and is based on selected Service Use Cases, which are representative of the three service types as defined by 3GPP. Their analysis has resulted in the derivation of the main KPIs that the Metro-Haul architecture needs to satisfy. Each Use Case has been decomposed into their components and requirements, which are then mapped onto the end-to-end network infrastructure.

The holistic view of all the possible services running over a metro network as envisioned by Metro-Haul has allowed to describe the main characteristics such a network must have, which will enable the services as envisioned by the 5G-PPP. This document provides detailed analysis of the service KPIs and subsequent requirements have provided key objectives, definition, and apportionment of the service KPIs for the Metro-Haul network vision.
Wall-Crossing in Coupled 2d-4d Systems

description: We introduce a new wall-crossing formula which combines and generalizes the Cecotti-Vafa and Kontsevich-Soibelman formulas for supersymmetric 2d and 4d systems respectively. This 2d-4d wall-crossing formula governs the wall-crossing of BPS states in an N=2 supersymmetric 4d gauge theory coupled to a supersymmetric surface defect. When the theory and defect are compactified on a circle, we get a 3d theory with a supersymmetric line operator, corresponding to a hyperholomorphic connection on a vector bundle over a hyperkahler space. The 2d-4d wall-crossing formula can be interpreted as a smoothness condition for this hyperholomorphic connection. We explain how the 2d-4d BPS spectrum can be determined for 4d theories of class S, that is, for those theories obtained by compactifying the six-dimensional (0,2) theory with a partial topological twist on a punctured Riemann surface C. For such theories there are canonical surface defects. We illustrate with several examples in the case of A_1 theories of class S. Finally, we indicate how our results can be used to produce solutions to the A_1 Hitchin equations on the Riemann surface C.

description: The role of configuration mixing in the Pt region is investigated. For this chain of isotopes, the nature of the ground state changes smoothly, being spherical around mass $A\sim 174$ and $A\sim 192$ and deformed around the mid-shell N=104 region. This has a dramatic effect on the systematics of the energy spectra as compared to the systematics in the Pb and Hg nuclei. Interacting Boson Model with configuration mixing calculations are presented for gyromagnetic factors, $α$-decay hindrance factors, and isotope shifts. The necessity of incorporating intruder configurations to obtain an accurate description of the latter properties becomes evident.

description: We present a data analysis pipeline for CMB polarization experiments, running from multi-frequency maps to the power spectra. We focus mainly on component separation and, for the first time, we work out the covariance matrix accounting for errors associated to the separation itself. This allows us to propagate such errors and evaluate their contributions to the uncertainties on the final products.The pipeline is optimized for intermediate and small scales, but could be easily extended to lower multipoles. We exploit realistic simulations of the sky, tailored for the Planck mission. The component separation is achieved by exploiting the Correlated Component Analysis in the harmonic domain, that we demonstrate to be superior to the real-space application (Bonaldi et al. 2006). We present two techniques to estimate the uncertainties on the spectral parameters of the separated components. The component separation errors are then propagated by means of Monte Carlo simulations to obtain the corresponding contributions to uncertainties on the component maps and on the CMB power spectra. For the Planck polarization case they are found to be subdominant compared to noise.

description: The thermal transport measurements have been made on the Fe-based superconductor Lu2Fe3Si5 (Tc ~ 6 K) down to a very low temperature Tc/120. The field and temperature dependences of the thermal conductivity confirm the multigap superconductivity with fully opened gaps on the whole Fermi surfaces. In comparison to MgB2 as a typical example of the multigap superconductor in a p-electron system, Lu2Fe3Si5 reveals a remarkably enhanced quasiparticle heat conduction in the mixed state. The results can be interpreted as a consequence of the electronic correlations derived from Fe 3d-electrons.

On the spectral theory of groups of affine transformations of compact nilmanifolds

description: Let $N$ be a connected and simply connected nilpotent Lie group, $Λ$ a lattice in $N$, and $X=N/Λ$ the corresponding nilmanifold. Let $Aff(X)$ be the group of affine transformations of $X$. We characterize the countable subgroups $H$ of $Aff(X)$ for which the action of $H$ on $X$ has a spectral gap, that is, such that the associated unitary representation $U$ of $H$ on the space of functions from $L^2(X)$ with zero mean does not weakly contain the trivial representation. Denote by $T$ the maximal torus factor associated to $X$. We show that the action of $H$ on $X$ has a spectral gap if and only if there exists no proper $H$-invariant subtorus $S$ of $T$ such that the projection of $H$ on $Aut (T/S)$ has an abelian subgroup of finite index. We first establish the result in the case where $X$ is a torus. In the case of a general nilmanifold, we study the asymptotic behaviour of matrix coefficients of $U$ using decay properties of metaplectic representations of symplectic groups. The result shows that the existence of a spectral gap for subgroups of $Aff(X)$ is equivalent to strong ergodicity in the sense of K.Schmidt. Moreover, we show that the action of $H$ on $X$ is ergodic (or strongly mixing) if and only if the corresponding action of $H$ on $T$ is ergodic (or strongly mixing).
