description: We derive probabilistic limit theorems that reveal the intricate structure of the phase transitions in a mean-field version of the Blume-Emery-Griffiths model. These probabilistic limit theorems consist of scaling limits for the total spin and moderate deviation principles (MDPs) for the total spin. The model under study is defined by a probability distribution that depends on the parameters $n$, $β$, and $K$, which represent, respectively, the number of spins, the inverse temperature, and the interaction strength. The intricate structure of the phase transitions is revealed by the existence of 18 scaling limits and 18 MDPs for the total spin. These limit results are obtained as $(β,K)$ converges along appropriate sequences to points belonging to various subsets of the phase diagram, which include a curve of second-order points and a tricritical point. The forms of the limiting densities in the scaling limits and of the rate functions in the MDPs reflect the influence of one or more sets that lie in neighborhoods of the critical points and the tricritical point. Of all the scaling limits, the structure of those near the tricritical point is by far the most complex, exhibiting new types of critical behavior when observed in a limit-theorem phase diagram in the space of the two parameters that parametrize the scaling limits.

description: Entangled states can help in quantum state discrimination by local operations and classical communication (LOCC). For example, a Bell state is necessary (and sufficient) to perfectly discriminate a set of either three or four Bell states by LOCC. In this paper, we consider the task of LOCC discrimination of the states of noisy Bell ensembles, where a given ensemble consists of the states obtained by mixing the Bell states with an arbitrary two-qubit state with nonzero probabilities. It is proved that a Bell state is required for optimal discrimination by LOCC, even though the ensembles do not contain, in general, any maximally entangled state, and in specific instances, any entangled state.

The effects on writing and revision of two different feedback methods : Teachers’s written feedback and writing conference feedback
Creators: name: Buck, Roberta Rude
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis investigates the effects of teachers' written feedback and writing conference feedback on writing and revision and on attitudes toward writing and revision. Seventeen subjects received teachers' written feedback and/or writing conference feedback on drafts of three assignments written for a university-level computer science course. Subjects also completed pre- and post-questionnaires surveying their attitudes toward writing and revision. Data collected for each writing assignment included all initial drafts, teachers' written and writing conference feedback, and all final drafts. All written and conference feedback and selected revisions were coded according to the researcher's coding schemes. Essays were holistically rated. Features of each type of feedback were assessed for their effects on writing and revision. Feedback methods were found to differentially affect revisions and between-draft holistic score differences. Feedback methods were also found to differentially affect subjects' changes in attitude toward writing and revision.
Correlated evolution between herbivory and gastrointestinal tract in a prolific lizard adaptive radiation

description: Radiations of ectothermic vertebrates across cold climates depend on the coordinated evolution of multiple traits that compensate for the constraints imposed by limited and fluctuating resources, such as temperature, food and oxygen. One of nature’s most prolific such radiations, Liolaemus lizards, has diversified across the extreme cold climates of the Andes and Patagonia. Remarkably, the prevailing patterns of reptile herbivory are opposed by Liolaemus which, in contrast with lizards generally, have repeatedly evolved plant consumption across small-bodied species from cold climates. Herbivory is hypothesized to depend on the evolution of multiple traits that maximize absorption of nutrients from an intrinsically poor-quality diet, such as increases in gastrointestinal tract size and increases in the density of nematodes in the intestine that may assist with plant digestion. Here, a comparative phylogenetic approach across Liolaemus species is implemented to test these hypotheses, which have only been investigated nonphylogenetically. Results reveal that intestine length increases consistently with increasing herbivory, whereas stomach size or nematode load are not associated with plant consumption. Body size plays no role in herbivory either. Consequently, this evidence places emphasis on the enlargement of the intestine to facilitate the evolution of herbivory in cold climates.

description: General Relativity can be reformulated as a diffeomorphism invariant gauge theory of the Lorentz group, with Lagrangian of the type $f(F\wedge F)$, where $F$ is the curvature 2-form of the spin connection. A theory from this class with a generic $f$ is known to propagate eight degrees of freedom: a massless graviton, a massive graviton and a scalar. General Relativity in this formalism avoids extra degrees of freedom because the function $f$ is special and leads to the appearance of six extra primary constraints on the phase space variables. Our main new result is that there are other theories of the type $f(F\wedge F)$ that lead to six extra primary constraints. However, only in the case of GR the dynamics is such that these six primary constraints get supplemented by six secondary constraints, which gives the end result of two propagating degrees of freedom. This is how uniqueness of GR manifests itself in this ``pure spin connection" formalism. The other theories we discover are shown to give examples of irregular dynamical systems. At the linear level around (anti-)de Sitter space they have two degrees of freedom, as General Relativity, with the extra ones manifesting themselves only non-linearly.

description: Shear bands originating from in situ tensile tests of Al$_{88}$Y$_{7}$Fe$_{5}$ melt-spun ribbons conducted in a transmission electron microscope are compared with ones which had formed ex situ during cold rolling. During in situ straining, the observations of a spearhead-like shear front, a meniscus-like foil thickness reduction and no apparent shear steps to accommodate strain suggest shear band initiation by a rejuvenating shear front followed by shearing along the already softened paths. This leads to necking and subsequent failure under the reduced constraint of a 2D geometry in the thin foil and thus explains the observed lack of ductility under tension. In contrast, shear bands formed during cold rolling display distinct alternating density changes and shear off-sets. An explanation for this difference may be that in situ shear bands rip before such features could develop. Moreover, both in and ex situ experiments suggest that initiation, propagation and arrest of shear bands occur during different stages.

description: Aims: Non-thermal radio emission associated with massive stars is believed to arise from a wind-wind collision in a binary system. However, the evidence of binarity is still lacking in some cases, notably Cyg OB2 #9 Methods: For several years, we have been monitoring this heavily-reddened star from various observatories. This campaign allowed us to probe variations both on short and long timescales and constitutes the first in-depth study of the visible spectrum of this object. Results: Our observations provide the very first direct evidence of a companion in Cyg OB2 #9, confirming the theoretical wind-wind collision scenario. These data suggest a highly eccentric orbit with a period of a few years, compatible with the 2yr-timescale measured in the radio range. In addition, the signature of the wind-wind collision is very likely reflected in the behaviour of some emission lines.

description: The purpose of this thesis was to study the institutions of a partner's involuntary and voluntary leave from business corporation, after the new law 4072/2012 . In the first section, we looked at the involuntary leave in the essential and procedural law. Then, we presented the involuntary partner's leave from corporate partnership caused by prosecution from an individual lender. Furthermore, we looked thoroughly at the involuntary leave in a two-person general partnership, under the new law. In the second section, we have raised the issue of a partner's voluntary leave under the new law and the law that was already in place, and we have identified the differences between them. In addition, we dealt with the partner's leave from a limited partnership. Finally, we studied some more specific issues that stand over time about the partner's right to leave and we noticed the positive effects of the new legislation (legislative provision) on those issues

description: We show that, in quadratic lagrangian theories of gravity, isotropic cosmological singularities are stable to the presence of small scalar, vector and tensor inhomogeneities. Unlike in general relativity, a particular exact isotropic solution is shown to be the stable attractor on approach to the initial cosmological singularity. This solution is also known to act as an attractor in Bianchi universes of types I, II and IX, and the results of this paper reinforce the hypothesis that small inhomogeneous and anisotropic perturbations of this attractor form part of the general cosmological solution to the field equations of quadratic gravity. Implications for the existence of a 'gravitational entropy' are also discussed.

description: We investigate how ellipticity, asymmetries and substructures separately affect the ability of galaxy clusters to produce strong lensing events, i.e. gravitational arcs, and how they influence the arc morphologies and fluxes. This is important for those studies aiming, for example, at constraining cosmological parameters from statistical lensing, or at determining the inner structure of galaxy clusters through gravitational arcs. We do so by creating two-dimensional gradually smoothed, differently elliptical and asymmetric versions of some numerical models. On average, we find that the contributions of ellipticity, asymmetries and substructures amount to ~40%, ~10% and ~30% of the total strong lensing cross section, respectively. However, our analysis shows that substructures play a more important role in less elliptical and asymmetric clusters, even if located at large distances from the cluster centers (~1Mpc/h). Conversely, their effect is less important in highly asymmetric lenses. The morphology, position and flux of individual arcs are strongly affected by the presence of substructures in the clusters.

Nested weighted automata

description: Recently there has been a significant effort to handle quantitative properties in formal verification and synthesis. While weighted automata over finite and infinite words provide a natural and flexible framework to express quantitative properties, perhaps surprisingly, some basic system properties such as average response time cannot be expressed using weighted automata, nor in any other know decidable formalism. In this work, we introduce nested weighted automata as a natural extension of weighted automata which makes it possible to express important quantitative properties such as average response time. In nested weighted automata, a master automaton spins off and collects results from weighted slave automata, each of which computes a quantity along a finite portion of an infinite word. Nested weighted automata can be viewed as the quantitative analogue of monitor automata, which are used in run-time verification. We establish an almost complete decidability picture for the basic decision problems about nested weighted automata, and illustrate their applicability in several domains. In particular, nested weighted automata can be used to decide average response time properties.
Assessing French as a second language macroclasses in Vancouver, British Columbia

Year: 2009

description: The purpose of the present study is to investigate the impact of 130-minute macroclasses, as opposed to 65-minute classes, taught through the communicative approach,, on second language acquisition and long-term retention. The participant group consisted of 48 females and 33 males in 130-minute three times a week Core French as a second language (FSL) 8 classes, taught through the Entre Amis 1 program, running from September 1993 to February 1994 (5 months) and from February to June 1994 (5 months) at Lord Byng Secondary. The comparison group consisted of 27 females and 17 males enrolled in 65-minute three times a week Core FSL 8 classes taught through the Entre Amis 1 program from September 1993 to June 1994 (10 months) at Templeton Secondary. Parents, teachers and counselors of these students participated in the study. In summary, contrary to popular belief, students retain much of what they learn in Core FSL class. The present study found that the quantitative analysis was not nearly as revealing as the qualitative analysis. Quantitative analysis is limited when teachers and students are not randomized. Further research should emphasize the teacher difference and how adequate inservice affects the quality of time given to learning in the second language classroom. The results from the present study are particularly relevant to the 1994 Core French Curriculum because the Ministry of Education has mandated the study of a second language from grades 5 through 8. In addition, teachers must now teach second languages using the communicative approach. More importantly, all of these changes are expected to be fully implemented by the fall of 1995.

description: We present a detailed study of plane waves in noncommutative abelian gauge theories. The dispersion relation is deformed from its usual form whenever a constant background electromagnetic field is present and is similar to that of an anisotropic medium with no Faraday rotation nor birefringence. When the noncommutativity is induced by the Moyal product we find that for some values of the background magnetic field no plane waves are allowed when time is noncommutative. In the Seiberg-Witten context no restriction is found. We also derive the energy-momentum tensor in the Seiberg-Witten case. We show that the generalized Poynting vector obtained from the energy-momentum tensor, the group velocity and the wave vector all point in different directions. In the absence of a constant electromagnetic background we find that the superposition of plane waves is allowed in the Moyal case if the momenta are parallel or satisfy a sort of quantization condition. We also discuss the relation between the solutions found in the Seiberg-Witten and Moyal cases showing that they are not equivalent.

description: We propose a scheme of lattice twisted-mass fermion regularization which is particularly convenient for application to isospin breaking (IB) QCD and QED calculations, based in particular on the so called RM123 approach, in which the IB terms of the action are treated as a perturbation. The main, practical advantage of this scheme is that it allows the calculation of IB effects on some mesonic observables, like e.g. the pi+ - pi0 mass splitting, using lattice correlation functions in which the quark and antiquark fields in the meson are regularized with opposite values of the Wilson parameter r. These correlation functions are found to be affected by much smaller statistical fluctuations, with respect to the analogous functions in which quark and antiquark fields are regularized with the same value of r. Two numerical application of this scheme, that we call "rotated twisted-mass", within pure QCD and QCD+QED respectively, are also provided for illustration.

description: Motivated by recent experimental studies of matter-waves and optical beams in double well potentials, we study the solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation in such a context. Using a Galerkin-type approach, we obtain a detailed handle on the nonlinear solution branches of the problem, starting from the corresponding linear ones and predict the relevant bifurcations of solutions for both attractive and repulsive nonlinearities. The results illustrate the nontrivial differences that arise between the steady states/bifurcations emerging in symmetric and asymmetric double wells.

Analyticity and Regge asymptotics in virtual Compton scattering on the nucleon
Creators: name: Caprini, Irinel
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We test the consistency of the data on the nucleon structure functions with analyticity and the Regge asymptotics of the virtual Compton amplitude. By solving a functional extremal problem, we derive an optimal lower bound on the maximum difference between the exact amplitude and the dominant Reggeon contribution for energies $ν$ above a certain high value $ν_h(Q^2)$. Considering in particular the difference of the amplitudes $T_1^\inel(ν, Q^2)$ for the proton and neutron, we find that the lower bound decreases in an impressive way when $ν_h(Q^2)$ is increased, and represents a very small fraction of the magnitude of the dominant Reggeon. While the method cannot rule out the hypothesis of a fixed Regge pole, the results indicate that the data on the structure function are consistent with an asymptotic behaviour given by leading Reggeon contributions. We also show that the minimum of the lower bound as a function of the subtraction constant $S_1^\inel(Q^2)$ provides a reasonable estimate of this quantity, in a frame similar, but not identical to the Reggeon dominance hypothesis.

description: The transportation industry has passed into an extremely competitive era. There is intense competition both among the different modes of common carriers, and among private carriers of all kinds and common carriers for freight and passenger. The intense controversy in Congress and before the regulatory commissions recently has been largely over rate reductions and rate-making procedures that intensify competition. Rates have been relatively stable for the past 3 years, and rail rates have actually declined slightly for farm products. Three areas of major difference have developed: (1) The Interstate Commerce Commission's interpretation of the Transportation Act of 1958 has made it somewhat less difficult for railroads to justify their competitive rate reductions; (2) the ICC and court interpretations of the new piggyback proposals (Plans III and IV) of the railroads have permitted some experimentation with all-commodity rates as opposed to the historic classification and commodity rate making; (3) finally, the competition from private autos and trucks has compelled common carriers of both freight and passengers to seek ways of reducing rates and fares through volume freight rates and heavier loading of freight cars and trucks, air bus and shuttle fares, and other devices.

description: We study the performance of quantum annealing for two sets of problems, namely, 2-satisfiability (2-SAT) problems represented by Ising-type Hamiltonians, and nonstoquastic problems which are obtained by adding extra couplings to the 2-SAT problem Hamiltonians. In addition, we add to the transverse Ising-type Hamiltonian used for quantum annealing a third term, the trigger Hamiltonian with ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic couplings, which vanishes at the beginning and end of the annealing process. We also analyze some problem instances using the energy spectrum, average energy or overlap of the state during the evolution with the instantaneous low lying eigenstates of the Hamiltonian, and identify some non-adiabatic mechanisms which can enhance the performance of quantum annealing.

description: The study of heavy quarkonium suppression in heavy-ion collisions represents an important source of information about the properties of the quark-gluon plasma produced in such collisions. In a previous paper, we have considered how to model the evolution of a quarkonium in such a way that the solution of the resulting equations evolves toward the correct thermal equilibrium distribution for an homogeneous and static medium. We found that it is crucial to take into account the energy gap between singlet and octet configurations when the temperature is not much greater than this energy gap. In this manuscript, we explore in more detail the phenomenological consequences of this observation in the more realistic situation of an expanding system. We consider two different scenarios, based on the same approximation scheme, but on different choices of parameters. In the first case, we rely on a Hard Thermal Loop approximation, while the second case is based on a recent determination of the static potential in lattice QCD. In both cases, we compute the decay width and the nuclear modification factor, both taking the energy gap into account and ignoring it. We find that the impact on the predictions is as large in the expanding medium as it is in the static case. Our conclusion is that this energy gap should be taken into account in phenomenological studies.

description: Σκοπός της μεταπτυχιακής διπλωματικής εργασίας ήταν η μελέτη των κρατικών ενισχύσεων για τον πολιτισμό και ειδικότερα για τον οπτικοακουστικό – κινηματογραφικό τομέα από την οπτική του δικαίου της ΕΕ. Στο Μέρος Α’ εξετάστηκε τόσο η πολιτική της ΕΕ για τον πολιτισμό όσο και για τον ανταγωνισμό στο πεδίο των κρατικών ενισχύσεων. Περαιτέρω, έγινε αναφορά της έννοιας του πολιτισμού στο ευρωπαϊκό δίκαιο, του σχετικού ευρωπαϊκού νομοθετικού πλαισίου και της υποστηρικτικής αρμοδιότητας της ΕΕ στα πολιτιστικά ζητήματα. Στην συνέχεια, εξετάστηκε η έννοιας της κρατικής ενίσχυσης υπό το άρθρο 107 (1) ΣΛΕΕ, όπως έχει διαμορφωθεί στη νομολογία του ΔΕΚ/ ΔΕΕ. Το Μέρος Β’ επικεντρώθηκε στο παράδειγμα των κρατικών ενισχύσεων προς τον οπτικοακουστικό - κινηματογραφικό τομέα. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, διερευνήθηκε η εφαρμογή της εξαίρεσης που προβλέπεται από άρθρο 107 (3) (δ’) ΣΛΕΕ στην περίπτωση της κινηματογραφικής βιομηχανίας. Τέλος, αναλύθηκαν τα κριτήρια αξιολόγησης που χρησιμοποιεί η Επιτροπή για το συμβατό των κρατικών ενισχύσεων προς υποστήριξη της παραγωγής κινηματογραφικών ταινιών και οπτικοακουστικών έργων με τους κανόνες τις εσωτερικής αγοράς
description: The present thesis was aiming to analyze state aid in the cultural sector, bringing, particularly, the audiovisual and film industry from the perspective of the European Law into focus. In the first part, the cultural policy and the competition policy of the EU, as well, were presented, always in connection with the field of state aid. Furthermore, reference was made to the concept of culture in EU law, to the relevant european legal framework as it had been so far developed, and to the EU 's supportive competence in cultural matters. Subsequently, the notion of state aid under article 107 (1) TFEU, as formulated in the ECJ case law, was examined. In the second part, the example of state aid in the audiovisual and film industry was analyzed. More specifically, the application of the exemption predicted in article 107 (3) (d) TFEU in the case of the film industry was investigated. Finally, the assessment criteria used by the Commission for the compatibility of state aid, with the internal market rules, regarding the production of films and other audiovisual works, have been analyzed

description: Personal authentication is an important process we encounter almost every day; when we are logging on a computer, entering a company where we work, or a restricted area, when we are using our plastic credit cards to pay for a service or to complete some other financial transaction, etc. In each of these processes of personal authentication some kind of magnetic or optical token is required. But by using novel technologies like mobile computing and wireless networking, it is possible to avoid carrying multitude of ID cards or remembering a number of PIN codes. Article shows how to efficiently authenticate users via Personal Area Networks (PAN) like Bluetooth or IrDA using commonplace AES (Rijndel) or MD5 encryption. This method can be implemented on many types of mobile devices like Pocket PC PDA with Windows CE (Windows Mobile 2003) real-time operating system, or any other customized OS, so we will explain all components and key features of such basic system.

Relating the topology of Dirac Hamiltonians to quantum geometry: When the quantum metric dictates Chern numbers and winding numbers

description: Quantum geometry has emerged as a central and ubiquitous concept in quantum sciences, with direct consequences on quantum metrology and many-body quantum physics. In this context, two fundamental geometric quantities are known to play complementary roles: the Fubini-Study metric, which introduces a notion of distance between quantum states defined over a parameter space, and the Berry curvature associated with Berry-phase effects and topological band structures. In fact, recent studies have revealed direct relations between these two important quantities, suggesting that topological properties can, in special cases, be deduced from the quantum metric. In this work, we establish general and exact relations between the quantum metric and the topological invariants of generic Dirac Hamiltonians. In particular, we demonstrate that topological indices (Chern numbers or winding numbers) are bounded by the quantum volume determined by the quantum metric. Our theoretical framework, which builds on the Clifford algebra of Dirac matrices, is applicable to topological insulators and semimetals of arbitrary spatial dimensions, with or without chiral symmetry. This work clarifies the role of the Fubini-Study metric in topological states of matter, suggesting unexplored topological responses and metrological applications in a broad class of quantum-engineered systems.

Narrative, literacy and the quest for self: Tango through the dark
Creators: name: Dunlop, Rishma
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This research explores the development of a manuscript of poetry (a creative text within text) titled Tango Through the Dark, considering lived experiences through qualitative, autobiographical methodology. The manuscript’s autobiographical approach is based on the conviction that the understanding of self is a precondition of and essential to the understanding of others. Therefore, the process of education lies not in the observer, but in the articulation of lived experience. As teacher and writer, the process of divestment or self-reflection allows an enrichment of experience in the reconstruction of the writer’s world. It is my conviction that pedagogical endeavours, in particular the teaching of literature and the quest for literacy, need to be grounded in the personal as a starting point in the reconstructing process that is essential between students, teachers and written texts. The discourses in this text, post-modern in their play with traditional scholarly writing, are informed by and interwoven with imaginative writings of authors in the fields of literature, curriculum and literary theory, post-structuralism, phenomenology, existentialism, and feminist thought. The narrative constructions become modes of writing that challenge established classifications and separations of disciplines and discourses, enhancing the understanding of the texture of lived experience. Texts create meaning in the world, not fixed meaning but new meanings, responding to Barthes’ challenge: “étonne-moi.” The interconnection of texts becomes a passage to the teaching self as the particularities of writing, teaching, and knowing the self, and the tensions between public and private persona are explored. In my writing and in my considerations of texts, I am inspired by Barthes’ comparisons of “teaching to play, reading to eros, writing to seduction” (quoted in Sontag, 1982, pp. xvi - xvii). The quest is to discover scholarship that exemplifies difference, emerging from “an ethos of eros and empathy” (Christ, 1987, p.58).

description: Financial speculators often seek to increase their potential gains with leverage. Debt is a popular form of leverage, and with over 39.88B USD of total value locked (TVL), the Decentralized Finance (DeFi) lending markets are thriving. Debts, however, entail the risks of liquidation, the process of selling the debt collateral at a discount to liquidators. Nevertheless, few quantitative insights are known about the existing liquidation mechanisms. In this paper, to the best of our knowledge, we are the first to study the breadth of the borrowing and lending markets of the Ethereum DeFi ecosystem. We focus on Aave, Compound, MakerDAO, and dYdX, which collectively represent over 85% of the lending market on Ethereum. Given extensive liquidation data measurements and insights, we systematize the prevalent liquidation mechanisms and are the first to provide a methodology to compare them objectively. We find that the existing liquidation designs well incentivize liquidators but sell excessive amounts of discounted collateral at the borrowers' expenses. We measure various risks that liquidation participants are exposed to and quantify the instabilities of existing lending protocols. Moreover, we propose an optimal strategy that allows liquidators to increase their liquidation profit, which may aggravate the loss of borrowers.
