description: Let S be a set of states of a physical system and p(s) be the probability of the occurrence of an event when the system is in state s. A function p from S to [0,1] is called a numerical event or alternatively an S-probability. If a set P:={p(s)|s in S} is ordered by the order of real functions such that certain plausible requirements are fulfilled, P becomes an orthomodular poset in which properties can be described by the addition and comparison of functions. P is then called an algebra of S-probabilities or algebra of numerical events. We first answer the question under which circumstances it is possible to consider sets of empirically found numerical events as members of an algebra of S-probabilities. Then we discuss the problem to decide whether a given small set Pn of S-probabilities can be embedded into a Boolean subalgebra of an algebra P of S-probabilities, in which case we will call Pn Boolean embeddable. If Pn is not Boolean embeddable, then the physical system at hand will most likely be non-classical. In the case of a concrete logic P, that is a quantum logic which can be represented by sets, we derive criteria for the subset Pn of P to be Boolean embeddable which can be checked by very simple procedures, for arbitrary S-probabilities we provide sets of Bell-like inequalities which characterize the Boolean embeddability of Pn. Finally we will show how these Bell-like inequalities fit into a general framework of Bell inequalities by providing a method for generating Bell inequalities for S-probabilities from elementary Bell valuations.

description: With increasing efficiency in human and freight transport fuelled by the creation of the global market place, pressure is mounting on quarantine administrators to target their resources strategically. A managed approach to decision-making is therefore becoming an integral part of quarantine management since target species and/or entry pathways must be identified and policed effectively. Using the example of Melon Thrips in Western Australia, this paper presents an economic framework that allows decision-makers to prioritise exotic pests based on the damage and production cost increases they are capable of imposing on affected industries. In doing so it identifies a critical level of expected damage associated with the pest that can then be used as a ceiling for incursion response expenditure.

description: A detailed computational study of the role of lattice constraints in the reactivity of certain hydrocarbon molecular crystals is reported. The method of computation, which is based on the technique of atom-atom potentials, enables the investigation of the optimum packing at, and in the neighbourhood of, the reactive site. In particular cases energy minimizations in 200-300 variables are performed. Hitherto, such detailed calculations have not been reported.

description: In this paper, we study the decision mechanism of prices of agricultural products and output of agricultural products, and establish simultaneous equation model between farmers' agricultural income and the total output of agricultural products, to analyse the dynamic relationship between the two. The results show that farmers' agricultural income affects output of agricultural products via price, and is also affected by output of agricultural products: the output of agricultural products is determined by the prices of agricultural products in the previous period. and if the prices of agricultural products in the previous period rise, then the total output of agricultural products in the current period increases; the prices of agricultural products are affected by output of agricultural Products and urban and rural residents' income. the urban residents' income having greater impact; the supply elasticity of agricultural products is greater than demand elasticity, therefore, the balance between price and output can not regress after being breached, needing the government to conduct macro-control.

description: We develop a general optimal control model of crop thinning applicable to settings in agriculture, horticulture and viticulture. Using a simple optimal control model for the land owner’s profit maximization problem, relevant scenarios are discussed using phase diagram analysis: (1) when the initial crop quantity is sufficiently small, crop thinning is not optimal, (2) when the initial crop quantity is high, it is optimal to thin the crop from the beginning of the relevant planning horizon and to reduce it over time until the stock of the crop has arrived at its optimum. From thereon, crop quantity evolves solely according to natural growth and/or decay. Depending on the model's parameters, this “stopping time” is reached sooner or later.

description: Here we study the instabilities of a quadratic band crossing system to Chern insulating states and uncorrelated disorder. We determined the phase diagram in the plane of topological mass versus disorder strength, characterizing the system with respect to spectral, localization and topological properties. In the clean limit, the system has two gapped Chern insulating phases with Chern numbers C=\pm2, and a trivial phase with C=0. For finite disorder, the quadratic band crossing points are unstable to emergent gapless Chern insulating phases with C=\pm1, not present in the clean limit. These phases occupy a considerable region of the phase diagram for intermediate disorder and show features of topological Anderson insulators: it is possible to reach them through disorder-driven transitions from trivial phases.

description: We investigate the difference between classical and quantum dynamics of coupled magnetic dipoles. We prove that in general the dynamics of the classical interaction Hamiltonian differs from the corresponding quantum model, regardless of the initial state. The difference appears as non positive-definite diffusion terms in the quantum evolution equation of an appropriate positive phase-space probability density. Thus, it is not possible to express the dynamics in terms of a convolution of a positive transition probability function and the initial condition as can be done in the classical case. We conclude that the dynamics is a quantum element of NMR quantum information processing. There are two limits where our quantum evolution coincide with the classical one: the short time limit before spin-spin interaction sets in and the long time limit when phase diffusion is incorporated.

description: The JAXA/ISAS spacecraft DESTINY$^+$ will be launched to the active asteroid (3200) Phaethon in 2022. Among the proposed core payload is the DESTINY+ Dust Analyzer (DDA) which is an upgrade of the Cosmic Dust Analyzer flown on the Cassini spacecraft to Saturn (Srama et al. 2011). We use two up-to-date computer models, the ESA Interplanetary Meteoroid Engineering Model (IMEM, Dikarev et al. 2005), and the interstellar dust module of the Interplanetary Meteoroid environment for EXploration model (IMEX; Sterken2013 et al., Strub et al. 2019) to study the detection conditions and fluences of interplanetary and interstellar dust with DDA. Our results show that a statistically significant number of interplanetary and interstellar dust particles will be detectable with DDA during the 4-years interplanetary cruise of DESTINY+. The particle impact direction and speed can be used to descriminate between interstellar and interplanetary particles and likely also to distinguish between cometary and asteroidal particles.

description: We study the spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain in both uniform and (perpendicular) staggered magnetic fields using the density-matrix renormalization-group method. This model has been shown earlier to describe the physics of the copper benzoate materials in magnetic field. In the present work, we extend the study to more general case for a systematic investigation of the field-induced gap and related properties of the spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain. In particular, we explore the high magnetic field regime where interesting behaviors in the field-induced gap, magnetization, and spin correlation functions are found. Careful examination of the low energy properties and magnetization reveals interesting competing effects of the staggered and uniform fields. The incommensurate behavior in the spin correlation functions is demonstrated and discussed in detail. The present work reproduces earlier results in good agreement with experimental data on copper benzoate and predicts new interesting field-induced features at very high magnetic field.

In particular, we will consider a possible formalization of the notion of non-Markovian dynamics, as well as the construction of quantum evolution equations featuring a memory kernel. Connections will be drawn to the corresponding notions in the framework of classical stochastic processes, thus pointing to the key differences between a quantum and classical formalization of the notion of memory effects.

description: Three new probalistic assessments of oil resources by the United States Geological Survey and the United States Minerals Management Service result in an expansion of global remaining conventional world oil resource estimates. The new value used here is 3.3 trillion barrels; the comparable earlier 1991 assessment was 2.1 trillion barrels. Using optimal control depletion theory, a global monopoly has theoretical net present value economic rent of $22 trillion, with supply-demand quantity equilibria peaking in about 85 years, then declining to exhaustion in 25-30 years. However, actual global markets (as distinct from theoretical markets) operate in a game theoreticframework. The Persian Gulf-OPEC team of exporters (accompanied by Norway and Mexico) faces the United States- Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development team of importers. The acceptable price range before September 11 was $23 - $30 per barrel. The Persian Gulf continues to be the major locus of world oil resources, and has production costs (including return on capital and a risk allowance) at $5 per barrel or less

description: We demonstrate that the matter density distribution in the surface region is determined well by the use of the relatively low-intensity beams that become available at the upcoming radioactive beam facilities. Following the method used in the analyses of electron scattering, we examine how well the density distribution is determined in a model-independent way by generating pseudo data and by carefully applying statistical and systematic error analyses. We also study how the determination becomes deteriorated in the central region of the density, as the quality of data decreases. Determination of the density distributions of neutron-rich nuclei is performed by fixing parameters in the basis functions to the neighboring stable nuclei. The procedure allows that the knowledge of the density distributions of stable nuclei assists to strengthen the determination of their unstable isotopes.

description: A family of classical mathematical problems considers the visibility properties of geometric figures in the plane, e.g. curves or polygons. In particular, the {\it domination problem} tries to find the minimum number of points that are able to dominate the whole set, the so called, {\it domination number}. Alternatively, other problems try to determine the subsets of points with a given cardinality, that maximize the basin of domination, the {\it partial dominating set}. Since a discrete time series can be viewed as an ordered set of points in the plane, the dominating number and the partial dominating set can be used to obtain additional information about the visibility properties of the series; in particular, the total visibility number and the partial visibility set. In this paper, we apply these two concepts to study times series that are generated from the logistic map. More specifically, we focus this work on the description of the Feigenbaum cascade to the onset of chaos. We show that the whole cascade has the same total visibility number, $v_T=1/4$. However, a different distribution of the partial visibility sets and the corresponding partial visibility curves can be obtained inside both periodic and chaotic regimes. We prove that the partial visibility curve at the Feigenbaum accumulation point $r_{\infty} \approx 3.5699$ is the limit curve of the partial visibility curves ($n+1$-polygonals) that correspond to the periods $T=2^{n}$ for $n=1,2,\ldots$. We analytically calculate the length of these $n+1$-polygonals and, as a limit, we obtain the length of the partial visibility curve at the onset of chaos, $L_{\infty} = L(r_{\infty}) \approx 1.0414387863$. Finally, we compare these results with those obtained from the period 3-cascade, and with the partial visibility curve of the chaotic series at the crossing point $r_c \approx 3.679$.

description: We provide a unified framework of Mahler measure, dessins d'enfants, and gauge theory. With certain physically motivated Newton polynomials from reflexive polygons, the Mahler measure and the dessin are in one-to-one correspondence. From the Mahler measure, one can construct a Hauptmodul for a congruence subgroup of the modular group, which contains the subgroup associated to the dessin. We also discuss their connections to the quantum periods of del Pezzo surfaces, as well as certain elliptic pencils. In brane tilings and quiver gauge theories, the modular Mahler flow might shed light on the inequivalence amongst the three different complex structures $τ_{R,G,B}$. We also study how, in F-theory, 7-branes and their monodromies arise in the context of dessins.

description: We study deformations of graphical zonotopes. Deformations of the classical permutahedron (which is the graphical zonotope of the complete graph) have been intensively studied in recent years under the name of generalized permutahedra. We provide an irredundant description of the deformation cone of the graphical zonotope associated to a graph $G$, consisting of independent equations defining its linear span (in terms of non-cliques of $G$) and of the inequalities defining its facets (in terms of common neighbors of neighbors in $G$). In particular, we deduce that the faces of the standard simplex corresponding to induced cliques in $G$ form a linear basis of the deformation cone, and that the deformation cone is simplicial if and only if $G$ is triangle-free.

description: We report on a global CKM matrix analysis taking into account most recent experimental and theoretical results. The statistical framework (Rfit) developed in this paper advocates formal frequentist statistics. Other approaches, such as Bayesian statistics or the 95% CL scan method are also discussed. We emphasize the distinction of a model testing and a model dependent, metrological phase in which the various parameters of the theory are determined. Measurements and theoretical parameters entering the global fit are thoroughly discussed, in particular with respect to their theoretical uncertainties. Graphical results for confidence levels are drawn in various one and two-dimensional parameter spaces. Numerical results are provided for all relevant CKM parameterizations, the CKM elements and theoretical input parameters. Predictions for branching ratios of rare K and B meson decays are obtained. A simple, predictive SUSY extension of the Standard Model is discussed.

description: We discuss the theory of Coleman families interpolating critical-slope Eisenstein series. We apply it to study degeneration phenomena at the level of Euler systems. In particular, this allows us to prove relations between Kato elements, Beilinson--Flach classes and diagonal cycles, and also between Heegner cycles and elliptic units. We expect that this method could be extended to construct new instances of Euler systems.

description: Large photon-number path entanglement is an important resource for enhanced precision measurements and quantum imaging. We present a general constructive protocol to create any large photon number path-entangled state based on the conditional detection of single photons. The influence of imperfect detectors is considered and an asymptotic scaling law is derived.

 DIAGNOSIS: Males resemble those of C. cruz (cf. figs. 326–336) in having the distal embolar prong deeply bifid, producing a distinctive appearance, with three parallel, prolaterally directed flanges, but the teeth on the embolar base are much shorter and the middle flange has a much narrower base and a blunter tip (figs. 155–160); females also have fully fused ventral scuta but have a much larger genital atrium with the posterior margin expanded near the midline (figs. 162–165).
 MALE (PBI_OON 51215, figs. 155–160): Total length 2.38. Endite ventral process wide, short; dorsal process narrow, short. Femora: I r1-1-0; II p0-0-2. Embolus distal prong deeply bifid, distal portion more heavily sclerotized; proximal prong long, narrow, sharply bent at half its length (N = 6).
 FEMALE (PBI_OON 27674, figs. 161–165): Total length 2.38. Spination typical. Posterior margin of genital atrium medially expanded into wide, short triangle (N = 4).
DISTRIBUTION: Heredia.

description: The energetics of possible global atmospheric circulation patterns in an Earth-like atmosphere are explored using a simplified GCM based on the University of Hamburg's Portable University Model for the Atmosphere. Results from a series of simulations, obtained by varying planetary rotation rate Ω with an imposed equator-to-pole temperature difference, were analysed to determine the heat transport and other contributions to the energy budget for the time-averaged, equilibrated flow. These show clear trends with Ω, with the most intense Lorenz energy cycle for an Earth-sized planet occurring with a rotation rate around half that of the present day Earth. KE and APE spectra, E_K(n) and E_A(n) (where n is total spherical wavenumber), also show clear trends with Ω, with n^{-3} enstrophy-dominated spectra around Ω* = Ω/Ω_E = 1, where Ω_E is the rotation rate of the Earth) and steeper (\sim n^{-5}) slopes in the zonal mean flow with little evidence for the n^{-5/3} spectrum anticipated for an inverse KE cascade. Instead, both KE and APE spectra become almost flat at scales larger than the internal Rossby radius, L_d, and exhibit near-equipartition at high wavenumbers. At Ω* << 1, the spectrum becomes dominated by KE with E_K(n) \sim 2-3 E_A(n) at most wavenumbers and a slope \sim n^{-5/3} across most of the spectrum. Spectral flux calculations show that enstrophy and APE are almost always cascaded downscale, regardless of Ω. KE cascades are more complicated, however, with downscale transfers across almost all wavenumbers, dominated by horizontally divergent modes, for Ω* \lesssim 1/4. At higher rotation rates, transfers of KE become increasingly dominated by rotational components with strong upscale transfers (dominated by eddy-zonal flow interactions) for scales larger than L_d and weaker downscale transfers for scales smaller than L_d.

Civil War, Public Goods and the Social Wealth of Nations

description: This paper establishes and explores the implications of a somewhat surprising empirical finding. Although civil war adversely affects the performance of social indicators in general, poorer countries lose less, in absolute and relative terms, than richer countries. It is argued that the explanation may lie in the extent to which richer countries have better social (and economic) indicators because of more public goods, and adaptation of economic and social mechanisms to the greater abundance of public goods such as physical infrastructure. Civil war destroys public goods, and therefore damages disproportionately the countries most dependent on them. A further implication of this framework is that the post-conflict rebound in social indicators should be relatively stronger in poorer countries. The data bear out this prediction. Our results should not of course be read as implying that poorer countries need less support to avoid civil war and to cope with its aftermath. Although their losses are less, they start from a lower base; so even small declines severely impact human well being. Properly understood, our results highlight the central role that public goods play in underpinning the social (and economic) wealth of nations.

Linguistic methods

description: The linguistic turn in 1960s paves the way for sociology to focus on language instead of contrasting abstract theories. Linguistic methods are being introduced to sociology. Few studies, however, examine the lawyer’s opening and closing statement form this perspective. This paper tries to apply linguist M.A.K. Halliday’s study on interpersonal metaphor to lawyer’s opening and closing statements in order to find systematic ways in these arguments during court trials which are common in our daily life. I compare the interpersonal metaphor usage rate between opening statements and closing statements, between plaintiff lawyers’ statements and defendant lawyers’ statements after coding 24 automobile accident cases. My findings reveal that there is difference but the difference is not significant for most of the categories
Self-organisation to criticality in a system without conservation law

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We numerically investigate the approach to the stationary state in the nonconservative Olami-Feder-Christensen (OFC) model for earthquakes. Starting from initially random configurations, we monitor the average earthquake size in different portions of the system as a function of time (the time is defined as the input energy per site in the system). We find that the process of self-organisation develops from the boundaries of the system and it is controlled by a dynamical critical exponent z~1.3 that appears to be universal over a range of dissipation levels of the local dynamics. We show moreover that the transient time of the system $t_{tr}$ scales with system size L as $t_{tr} \sim L^z$. We argue that the (non-trivial) scaling of the transient time in the OFC model is associated to the establishment of long-range spatial correlations in the steady state.

Temperature profile of an assemblage of non-isothermic linear energy converters

description: In this paper, a proposal is presented to determine the temperature profile obtained for an assemblage of non-isothermal linear energy converters (ANLEC) published by Jimenez de Cisneros and Calvo Hernandez [1,2]. This is done without solving the Riccati's differential equation, needed by these authors to get the temperature profile. Instead of use Riccati's equation, we deduce a first order ordinary differential equation, through the introduction of the force ratio $x_{D,I}$ of an ANLEC's machine-element which operates at some optimal regime. Additionally, we used the integration constant, that comes from the solution of this differential equation, to deduce the general heat fluxes of the ANLEC and tuning the assamblage's operation as direct energy converter or inverse energy converter. The temperature profile will serve to obtain the energetic behavior of a non-isothermal energy converter as heat engine, cooler or heat pump.

description: Taking a linguistic definition of language,Ngaanyat jarra is one of the dialects of the Western Desert language which it has been estimated was the largest in Australia. "Within the total Australian land area of about 3 million square miles it seems that the multi-tribe Western Desert language was largest both in terms of geographical extent -- some 500,000 square miles -- and also in number of speakers — perhaps 6,000."

description: Many phenomena in physics, including light, water waves, and sound, are described by wave equations. Given their coefficients, wave equations can be solved to high accuracy, but the presence of the wavelength scale often leads to large computer simulations for anything beyond the simplest geometries. The inverse problem, determining the coefficients from a field on a boundary, is even more demanding, since traditional optimization requires a large number of forward problems be solved sequentially. Here we show that the free-form inverse problem of wave equations can be solved with machine learning. First we show that deep neural networks can be used to predict the optical properties of nanostructured materials such as metasurfaces. Then we demonstrate the free-form inverse design of such nanostructures and show that constraints imposed by experimental feasibility can be taken into account. Our neural networks promise automated design in several technologies based on the wave equation.
