description: We use an effective matrix model to study deconfinement in a pure SU(Nc) gauge theory, without quarks, in d=2+1 dimensions. Expanding about a constant background A0 field we construct an effective potential for the eigenvalues of the thermal Wilson line for general Nc and in the large-Nc limit. The numerical results are presented using one, two, and four free parameters, which are determined by fitting directly to the lattice data for the pressure. The matrix model shows a good agreement with numerical lattice simulations for the pressure and the interaction measure, starting from the perturbative limit up to the critical temperature. For the pressure, the details of A0- dependent nonperturbative terms are relevant only in a narrow transition region below ~1.2 Td. This is also the range where the Polyakov loop deviates notably from one. In accordance with the lattice results we find that, up to a trivial factor Nc^2-1, there is only a mild dependence on the number of colors.

Entropy production given constraints on the energy functions

description: We consider the problem of driving a finite-state classical system from some initial distribution $p$ to some final distribution $p'$ with vanishing entropy production (EP), under the constraint that the driving protocols can only use some limited set of energy functions $\mathcal{E}$. Assuming no other constraints on the driving protocol, we derive a simple condition that guarantees that such a transformation can be carried out, which is stated in terms of the smallest probabilities in $\{p,p'\}$ and a graph-theoretic property defined in terms of $\mathcal{E}$. Our results imply that a surprisingly small amount of control over the energy function is sufficient (in particular, any transformation $p\to p'$ can be carried out as soon as one can control some one-dimensional parameter of the energy function, e.g., the energy of a single state). We also derive a lower bound on the EP under more general constraints on the transition rates, which is formulated in terms of a convex optimization problem.

description: The work is dedicated to the development of the electron-lattice energy exchange theory in metal particles and it dependence of on particle size and electron temperature. We obtained the expressions for the constants of the electron-lattice energy exchange using the quantum-kinetic approach for infinite metal, and compared it with the result of classical kinetic approach. Both methods give the same result. But for the metal particles smaller than the mean free path of electrons, as we show, a quantum-kinetic approach (in its standard form) can not be applied, while the classical approach can be easily generalized to the particle of such sizes. We found a new peculiarity of the electron-lattice energy exchange - its temperature dependence around certain size - "magic size" of metal nanoparticles. Our calculation shown, that this changes of the electron-lattice energy exchange are associated with alteration of acoustic subzones which takes part in energy transfer. The change of the electron temperature can also lead to changes (around the "magic size") in the acoustic subzones, which are involved in energy transfer. As a result, constant of the electron-phonon interaction in nanoparticles can be either much higher or much lower than the corresponding constant for infinite metal.

description: This research concerns the estimation of latent linear or polychoric correlations from fuzzy frequency tables. Fuzzy counts are of particular interest to many disciplines including social and behavioral sciences, and are especially relevant when observed data are classified using fuzzy categories - as for socio-economic studies, clinical evaluations, content analysis, inter-rater reliability analysis - or when imprecise observations are classified into either precise or imprecise categories - as for the analysis of ratings data or fuzzy coded variables. In these cases, the space of count matrices is no longer defined over naturals and, consequently, the polychoric estimator cannot be used to accurately estimate latent linear correlations. The aim of this contribution is twofold. First, we illustrate a computational procedure based on generalized natural numbers for computing fuzzy frequencies. Second, we reformulate the problem of estimating latent linear correlations from fuzzy counts in the context of Expectation-Maximization based maximum likelihood estimation. A simulation study and two applications are used to investigate the characteristics of the proposed method. Overall, the results show that the fuzzy EM-based polychoric estimator is more efficient to deal with imprecise count data as opposed to standard polychoric estimators that may be used in this context.

description: This  volume  was  born  in  airports,  those  strange,  seemingly-artificial islands of commerce and activity located in remote in-dustrial  fringe  zones  away  from  the  pulsing  hubs  of  our  cities.  Filled  with  a  contrived  form  of  vitality  by  thousands  of  retail  staff,  businesses,  support  industries  and  engineering  facilities,  these  sprawling  complexes  warp  the  social  spaces  that  sur-round  them  —  displacing,  yet  creating.  Within  the  gleaming  halls  of  these  shrines  to  our  peregrinations,  the  passenger  is  neither here  nor  there,  but  in  a  strange  state  of  intermediacy.  Airports are a reconfiguration of space and time familiar to all air travellers — particularly to the academic — and yet redolent of phenomena that exist within intriguing corners of literature and history. It is the analogues of these strange twenty-first cen-tury  experiences,  their  transits,  transports,  scapes,  and  flows,  that inspired this collection. These essays follow twisting paths through literature that offer a liminal vantage point on ideas in progress. Like all experiences of being in transit, there is beauty and meaning when conventional movement recedes.
Social Intermediaries: Creating a More Responsible Web Through Portable Identity, Cross-Web Reputation, and Code-Backed Norms

description: Currently, our identities are scattered across the Web. At each website on which we participate, we must create new user names, personal profiles, social connections, and histories of activity. Without portable identities, we cannot fully reap the benefits of the emerging reputation economy. Moreover, because of the Web's structural limitations on identity, norm-based social governance has not played a significant role on most sites. The paucity of norms has created an atmosphere in which abusive behavior is common, heightening the apparent need for new legal regulation. However, new tools, which I term social intermediaries, are poised to introduce portable identity to the Web. By allowing users to aggregate records of their activities across multiple sites, these tools increase reputation-based incentives for production. They also promote an atmosphere of respect by encouraging people to recognize each other as fully rounded individuals. Most importantly, they will allow many more sites to offer opportunities for users to govern each other through code-backed norms. This new opportunity for bottom-up social governance will help responsible users and site operators ameliorate the problems of abusive behavior on the Web. While social intermediaries introduce new regulatory challenges, their norm-building capacity shows that law is not the only answer to the Web's social problems.
Time-dependent restricted-active-space self-consistent-field singles method for many-electron dynamics

description: The time-dependent restricted-active-space self-consistent-field singles (TD-RASSCF-S) method is presented for investigating TD many-electron dynamics in atoms and molecules. Adopting the SCF notion from the muticonfigurational TD Hartree-Fock (MCTDHF) method and the RAS scheme (single-orbital excitation concept) from the TD configuration-interaction singles (TDCIS) method, the TD-RASSCF-S method can be regarded as a hybrid of them. We prove that, for closed-shell $N_{\rm e}$-electron systems, the TD-RASSCF-S wave function can be fully converged using only $N_{\rm e}/2+1\le M\le N_{\rm e}$ spatial orbitals. Importantly, based on the TD variational principle, the converged TD-RASSCF-S wave function with $M= N_{\rm e}$ is more accurate than the TDCIS wave function. The accuracy of the TD-RASSCF-S approach over the TDCIS is illustrated by the calculation of high-order harmonic generation spectra for one-dimensional models of atomic helium, beryllium, and carbon in an intense laser pulse. The electronic dynamics during the process is investigated by analyzing the behavior of electron density and orbitals. The TD-RASSCF-S method is accurate, numerically tractable, and applicable for large systems beyond the capability of the MCTDHF method.

description: In this paper, we study an asymptotic expansion of the heat kernel for a Laplace operator on a smooth Riemannian manifold without a boundary at enough small values of the proper time. The Seeley-DeWitt coefficients of this decomposition satisfy a set of recurrence relations, which we use to construct two function families of a special kind. Using these functions, we study the expansion of a local heat kernel for the inverse Laplace operator. We show that the new functions have some important properties. For example, we can consider the Laplace operator on the function set as a shift one. Also we describe various applications useful in theoretical physics and, in particular, we find a decomposition of Green's functions near the diagonal in terms of new functions.

description: During lung radiotherapy, the position of infrared reflective objects on the chest can be recorded to estimate the tumor location. However, radiotherapy systems have a latency inherent to robot control limitations that impedes the radiation delivery precision. Prediction with online learning of recurrent neural networks (RNN) allows for adaptation to non-stationary respiratory signals, but classical methods such as RTRL and truncated BPTT are respectively slow and biased. This study investigates the capabilities of unbiased online recurrent optimization (UORO) to forecast respiratory motion and enhance safety in lung radiotherapy. We used 9 observation records of the 3D position of 3 external markers on the chest and abdomen of healthy individuals breathing during intervals from 73s to 222s. The sampling frequency was 10Hz, and the amplitudes of the recorded trajectories range from 6mm to 40mm in the superior-inferior direction. We forecast the 3D location of each marker simultaneously with a horizon value between 0.1s and 2.0s, using an RNN trained with UORO. We compare its performance with an RNN trained with RTRL, LMS, and offline linear regression. We provide closed-form expressions for quantities involved in the loss gradient calculation in UORO, thereby making its implementation efficient. Training and cross-validation were performed during the first minute of each sequence. On average over the horizon values considered and the 9 sequences, UORO achieves the lowest root-mean-square (RMS) error and maximum error among the compared algorithms. These errors are respectively equal to 1.3mm and 8.8mm, and the prediction time per time step was lower than 2.8ms (Dell Intel core i9-9900K 3.60 GHz). Linear regression has the lowest RMS error for the horizon values 0.1s and 0.2s, followed by LMS for horizon values between 0.3s and 0.5s, and UORO for horizon values greater than 0.6s.

description: The 124-131Te nuclei have been produced as fission fragments in two fusion reactions induced by heavy-ions (12C + 238U at 90 MeV bombarding energy and 18O + 208Pb at 85 MeV) and studied with the Euroball array. Their high-spin level schemes have been extended to higher excitation energy from the triple gamma-ray coincidence data. The gamma-gamma angular correlations have been analyzed in order to assign spin and parity values to many observed states. Moreover the half-lives of isomeric states have been measured from the delayed coincidences between the fission-fragment detector SAPhIR and Euroball, as well as from the timing information of the Ge detectors. The behaviors of the yrast structures identified in the present work are first discussed in comparison with the general features known in the mass region, particularly the breakings of neutron pairs occupying the nuh11/2 orbit identified in the neighboring Sn nuclei. The experimental level schemes are then compared to shell-model calculations performed in this work. The analysis of the wave functions shows the effects of the proton-pair breaking along the yrast lines of the heavy Te isotopes.

Bios in the Prik of Conscience: The Apophatic Body and Sensuous Soul
Creators: name: Roman, Christopher
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2017

description: In his 1981–82 lectures entitled The Hermeneutics of the Subject, Michel Foucault formulates that in the process of the self com-ing to truth in spirituality, the subject must be “changed, trans-formed, shifted, and, become, to some extent and up to a certain point,  other  than  himself.”1  This  paper  thinks  with  the  Prik  of  Conscience (c. 1400)2 as it presents the reader and penitent with the problem of the self as it becomes “other than” itself. This pro-cess of becoming other than oneself is reflected in the idea of the penitent as a pilgrim passing through worlds. On the one hand, the unknown author of the Prik of Conscience is concerned with exploring “the more world,” or the macrocosm, and its connec-tion  with  “the  less  world,”  the  microcosm.  On  the  other  hand,  the Conscience-author is concerned with a kind of life, what the Greeks  referred  to  as  bios,  linked  with  self-examination  in  the  process of penitence.3 The penitential self-examination is linked to  the  relationship  between  macrocosm  and  microcosm.  The  penitent  must  find  a  way  to  unsay  the  self  in  order  to  become  connected with these two iterations of cosmos.

description: This article investigates the susceptibility of the patent reexamination process to abuse and argues that "sham petitioning" in the reexamination context threatens to undermine the quid pro quo of the patent system, jeopardizing the objectives of innovation and disclosure by weakening the incentive of the patent right. Since reexamination casts a cloud on the validity of a patent and harms enforceability, the patent holder subject to such a proceeding instigated under false pretenses can be deprived of the economic benefits his patent should otherwise have afforded him. In an effort to help craft a solution, the article explores the ways in which reexamination is vulnerable to abuse and looks closely at several instances of alleged misconduct. It contends that state tort remedies provide patent holders subject to unwarranted proceedings an adequate recourse for harms suffered. It also comments on a recent case in which the Federal Circuit was asked to consider whether such remedies are preempted, arguing that the court's surprising decision to affirm without opinion perpetuates uncertainty throughout the patent system and evades important questions of first impression. Finally, a number of proposals are offered with a view to curbing abuse in current and future variants of the reexamination process.
Phase description of oscillatory convection with a spatially translational mode

description: We formulate a theory for the phase description of oscillatory convection in a cylindrical Hele-Shaw cell that is laterally periodic. This system possesses spatial translational symmetry in the lateral direction owing to the cylindrical shape as well as temporal translational symmetry. Oscillatory convection in this system is described by a limit-torus solution that possesses two phase modes; one is a spatial phase and the other is a temporal phase. The spatial and temporal phases indicate the position and oscillation of the convection, respectively. The theory developed in this paper can be considered as a phase reduction method for limit-torus solutions in infinite-dimensional dynamical systems, namely, limit-torus solutions to partial differential equations representing oscillatory convection with a spatially translational mode. We derive the phase sensitivity functions for spatial and temporal phases; these functions quantify the phase responses of the oscillatory convection to weak perturbations applied at each spatial point. Using the phase sensitivity functions, we characterize the spatiotemporal phase responses of oscillatory convection to weak spatial stimuli and analyze the spatiotemporal phase synchronization between weakly coupled systems of oscillatory convection.

description: Recently, Diaz Trigo et al. reported an XMM-Newton detection of relativistically Doppler-shifted emission lines associated with steep-spectrum radio emission in the stellar-mass black hole candidate 4U 1630-47 during its 2012 outburst. They interpreted these lines as indicative of a baryonic jet launched by the accretion disk. Here we present a search for the same lines earlier in the same outburst using high-resolution X-ray spectra from the Chandra High-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer. While our observations (eight months prior to the XMM-Newton campaign) also coincide with detections of steep spectrum radio emission by the Australia Telescope Compact Array, we find no evidence for any relativistic X-ray emission lines. Indeed, despite $\sim5\times$ brighter radio emission, our Chandra spectra allow us to place an upper limit on the flux in the blueshifted Fe XXVI line that is $\gtrsim20\times$ weaker than the line observed by Diaz Trigo et al. We explore several scenarios that could explain our differing results, including variations in the geometry of the jet or a mass-loading process or jet baryon content that evolves with the accretion state of the black hole. We also consider the possibility that the radio emission arises in an interaction between a jet and the nearby ISM, in which case the X-ray emission lines might be unrelated to the radio emission.

description: This Article proposes a novel technique for characterizing the relative determinacy of legal decision-making. I begin with the observation that the determinacy of legal outcomes varies from context to context within the law. To augment this intuition, I develop a theoretical model of determinate legal decision-making. This model aims to capture the essential features that are typically associated with the concept of legal determinacy. I then argue that we can use such an idealized model as a standard for expressing the relative determinacy or indeterminacy of decision-making in actual, observed legal contexts. From a legal theory standpoint, this approach — separating determinacy and indeterminacy into their constituent conceptual elements — helps us to more rigorously define these theoretical ideas. Ultimately, from a practical standpoint, I assert that this framework assists in understanding why legal outcomes in certain contexts are determinate enough to be amenable to resolution by computers.

description: Supermassive black holes may be described by their mass and spin. When supermassive black holes are active, the activity provides a probe of the state of the black hole system. The spin of a hole can be estimated when the black hole mass and beam power of the source are known for sources with powerful outflows. Seventy-five sources for which both the black hole mass and beam power could be obtained are identified and used to obtain estimates of black hole spins. The 75 supermassive black holes studied include 52 FRII radio galaxies and 23 FRII radio loud quasars with redshifts ranging from about zero to two. The new values are combined with those obtained previously for 19 FRII radio galaxies, 7 FRII radio loud quasars, and 29 radio sources associated with CD galaxies to form samples of 71 FRII radio galaxies, 30 FRII quasars, and a total sample of 130 spin values; all of the sources are associated with massive elliptical galaxies. The new values obtained are similar to those obtained earlier at similar redshift, and range from about 0.1 to 1 for FRII sources. The overall results are consistent with those obtained previously: the spins tend to decrease with decreasing redshift for the FRII sources studied. There is a hint that the range of values of black hole spin at a given redshift is larger for FRII quasars than for FRII radio galaxies. There is no indication of a strong correlation between supermassive black hole mass and spin for the supermassive black holes studied here. The relation between beam power and black hole mass is obtained and used as a diagnostic of the outflows and the dependence of the magnetic field strength on black hole mass.

In random geometric graphs, clustering undergoes a continuous phase transition, separating a phase with finite clustering from a regime where clustering vanishes in the thermodynamic limit. We prove this geometric-to-nongeometric phase transition to be topological in nature, with anomalous features such as diverging entropy as well as atypical finite size scaling behavior of clustering. Moreover, a slow decay of clustering in the nongeometric phase implies that some real networks with relatively high levels of clustering may be better described in this regime.

Concordia Discors: The Traveling Heart as Foreign Objects in Chaucer's Troilus and Criseyde
Creators: name: Friedrich, Jennie
Publisher: name: punctum books
Year: 2017

description: The quote from Horace’s Epistles in my epigraph succinctly ar-ticulates the complexity of the heart’s physical movements and characteristics in Chaucer’s Troilus and Criseyde: what I will dis-cuss in this essay as a process of concordia discors, or harmoni-ous  discord.  Hearts  in  this  poem  are  sometimes  just  symbols,  particularly  in  the  frequent  references  to  Troilus’s  heartache.2In  other  instances,  hearts  are  profoundly  material,  and  even  objectified in very specific and consistent ways throughout the narrative.  This  essay  focuses  on  the  removal  and  exchange  of  disembodied  and  objectified  hearts,  their  profound  effects  on  notions  of  identity  and  ontological  integrity  in  the  poem.  The  interactions between hearts and bodies in Troilus and Criseydealso  create  a  complex  interplay  of  transits,  transports,  scapes,3and  flows.  Bodies  move,  but  they  are  also  at  times  transport-ed against their will. Hearts are sometimes part of the internal landscapes  of  bodies,  but  at  other  times  they  are  transported  out  of  bodies.  While  the  degree  to  which  physical  dynamics  governing  movement  and  physical  integrity  in  works  of  fan-tasy remains a subject of critical debate, I argue that Chaucer’s insistence on materiality — that the hearts function in material ways  that  align  them  with  their  cultural  function  —  grants  the  traveling  hearts  some  degree  of  scientific  gravitas  within  their  historical context.4 The dual function of the heart, as both a ves-sel  and  a  thing  to  be  placed  inside  a  vessel,  makes  it  the  ideal  representation  for  the  cultural  conflicts  of  the  Trojan  War  as  represented  in  Chaucer’s  poem.  Themes  of  invasion,  mobility,  and  displacement  are  pivotal  to  the  plot,  and  encapsulated  by  the material forms and movements of the eagle’s heart and the heart-shaped  ruby  brooch  in  the  poem.  For  this  reason,  I  will  focus on the ways in which the forms of cognitive estrangement present in this poem — alienation of the reader from his or her physical  reality  through  cognitive  organization  of  an  alternate  reality — engage with the physical environment of the body, its interior, and the organization thereof.

description: Driven by gravity, massive structures like galaxies and clusters of galaxies are believed to grow continuously through hierarchical merging and accretion of smaller systems. Observational evidence of accretion events is provided by the coherent stellar streams crossing the outer haloes of massive galaxies, such as the Milky Way or Andromeda. At similar mass-scales, around $10^{11}$ solar masses in stars, further observational evidence of merging activity is also ample. Mergers of lower-mass galaxies are expected within the hierarchical process of galaxy formation, but have hitherto not been seen for galaxies with less than about $10^9$ solar masses in stars. Here, we report the kinematic detection of a stellar stream in one of the satellite galaxies of Andromeda, the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Andromeda II, which has a mass of only $10^7$ solar masses in stars. The properties of the stream show that we are observing the remnant of a merger between two dwarf galaxies. This had a dramatic influence on the dynamics of the remnant, which is now rotating around its projected major axis. The stellar stream in Andromeda II illustrates the scale-free character of the formation of galaxies, down to the lowest galactic mass scales.

description: The  Book  of  Margery  Kempe,  dating  from  the  late  1430s,  bris-tles with concurrent transits, passages, and thoroughfares in all sorts of modes, scales, and palettes. Most obviously, the book’s shifting, shifty generic status incessantly confronts the reader’s expectations, demands, and avenues of understanding. Unequal parts  autobiography,  confessional,  saintly  résumé,  pilgrimage  narrative, devotional program, and psychodrama, the text con-tinuously provokes its medieval and modern users to ask what it is and what it is for.
Regularization by transport noise for 3D MHD equations

Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)

description: We consider the problem of regularization by noise for the three dimensional magnetohydrodynamical (3D MHD) equations. It is shown that, in a suitable scaling limit, multiplicative noise of transport type gives rise to bounds on the vorticity fields of the fluid velocity and magnetic fields. As a result, if the noise intensity is big enough, then the stochastic 3D MHD equations admit a pathwise unique global solution for large initial data, with high probability.

description: In  the  book  that  inspired  this  one,  John  Urry  redefines  not  just  social  structures  but  also  the  social  agent.  “[O]f  course,”  he  writes,  “agents  are  not  just  humans  but  will  be  a  variety  of  human and non-human actants that constitute the typical mo-bile,  roaming  hybrids.”1  Out  of  context,  “non-human  actants”  would  probably  mean  nonhuman  animals;  “roaming  hybrids”  might  be  peripatetic  centaurs  or  cyborgs.  In  fact,  however,  the  nonhuman  actants  that  Urry  discusses  are  principally  objects,  and  his  “hybrids”  are  “assemblages  of  humans,  machines,  and  technologies.”2  Animals  play  only  a  passive  role  in  his  “mobile  sociology,” as the potential recipients of rights and “citizenship.”

description: Remote sensing provides valuable information about objects or areas from a distance in either active (e.g., RADAR and LiDAR) or passive (e.g., multispectral and hyperspectral) modes. The quality of data acquired by remotely sensed imaging sensors (both active and passive) is often degraded by a variety of noise types and artifacts. Image restoration, which is a vibrant field of research in the remote sensing community, is the task of recovering the true unknown image from the degraded observed image. Each imaging sensor induces unique noise types and artifacts into the observed image. This fact has led to the expansion of restoration techniques in different paths according to each sensor type. This review paper brings together the advances of image restoration techniques with particular focuses on synthetic aperture radar and hyperspectral images as the most active sub-fields of image restoration in the remote sensing community. We, therefore, provide a comprehensive, discipline-specific starting point for researchers at different levels (i.e., students, researchers, and senior researchers) willing to investigate the vibrant topic of data restoration by supplying sufficient detail and references. Additionally, this review paper accompanies a toolbox to provide a platform to encourage interested students and researchers in the field to further explore the restoration techniques and fast-forward the community.

description: Measuring a weak force is an important task for micro-mechanical systems, both when using devices as sensitive detectors and, particularly, in experiments of quantum mechanics. The optimal strategy for resolving a weak stochastic signal force on a huge background (typically given by thermal noise) is a crucial and debated topic, and the stability of the mechanical resonance is a further, related critical issue. We introduce and analyze the parametric control of the optical spring, that allows to stabilize the resonance and provides a phase reference for the oscillator motion, yet conserving a free evolution in one quadrature of the phase space. We also study quantitatively the characteristics of our micro opto-mechanical system as detector of stochastic force for short measurement times (for quick, high resolution monitoring) as well as for the longer term observations that optimize the sensitivity. We compare a simple, naive strategy based on the evaluation of the variance of the displacement (that is a widely used technique) with an optimal Wiener-Kolmogorov data analysis. We show that, thanks to the parametric stabilization of the effective susceptibility, we can more efficiently implement Wiener filtering, and we investigate how this strategy improves the performance of our system. We finally demonstrate the possibility to resolve stochastic force variations well below 1% of the thermal noise.

description: Nano-textured surfaces are an intriguing approach for optimizing the optical characteristics for monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells. Here, the development of different textures of silicon surfaces using various commercial additives is presented and their performance in silicon heterojunction (SHJ) and SHJ–perovskite tandem solar cells is discussed. After optical and electrical characterization, we show that nano-textured surfaces can easily compete with standard textured surfaces, yielding higher average efficiencies in single junctions. In addition, their compatibility with solution-processed perovskite top cells is demonstrated, yielding a perovskite/silicon tandem solar cell efficiency of >28% on a bottom cell with nano-texture on both sides.

description: We show how coherences between identical constituents of a many-body quantum state can be interrogated by suitable correlation functions, and identify sufficient conditions under which low-order correlators fully characterize many-body coherences, as controlled by the constituents' mutual distinguishability. Comparison of correlators of different order detects many-body entanglement.
