Metastable States of the Classical Inertial Infinite-Range-Interaction Heisenberg Ferromagnet: Role of Initial Conditions

description: A system of $N$ classical Heisenberg-like rotators, characterized by infinite-range ferromagnetic interactions, is studied numerically within the microcanonical ensemble through a molecular-dynamics approach. Such a model, known as the classical inertial infinite-range-interaction Heisenberg ferromagnet, exhibits a second-order phase transition within the standard canonical-ensemble solution. The present numerical analysis, which is restricted to an energy density slightly below criticality, compares the effects of different initial conditions for the orientations of the classical rotators. By monitoring the time evolution of the kinetic temperature, we observe that the system may evolve into a metastable state (whose duration increases linearly with $N$), in both cases of maximal and zero initial magnetization, before attaining a second plateau at longer times. Since the kinetic temperatures associated with the second plateau, in the above-mentioned cases, do not coincide, the system may present a three-plateaux (or even more complicated) structure for finite $N$. To our knowledge, this has never before been observed on similar Hamiltonian models, such as the XY version of the present model. It is also shown that the system is sensitive to the way that one breaks the symmetry of the paramagnetic state: different nonzero values for the initial magnetization may lead to sensibly distinct evolutions for the kinetic temperature, whereas different situations with zero initial magnetization all lead to the same structure.

description: Lattice gauge theories are a fascinating and rich class of theories relating to the most fundamental models of particle physics, and as experimental control on the quantum level increases there is a growing interest in non-equilibrium effects such as dynamical quantum phase transitions. To demonstrate how these physical theories can be accessed in near-term quantum devices, we study the dynamics of a (1+1)D U(1) quantum link model following quenches of its mass-term. We find that the system undergoes dynamical quantum phase transitions for all system sizes considered, even the smallest where the dynamics can be solved analytically. We devise a gauge invariant string order parameter whose zeros correlates with the structure of the Loschmidt amplitude, making the order parameter useful for experimental study in near-term devices. The zeros of the Loschmidt amplitude as well as the zeros of our order parameter are revealed by vortices in their phases, which can be counted by a topologically invariant winding number. With noisy intermediate scale quantum devices in mind, we propose a class of superconducting circuits for the general implementation of U(1) quantum link models. The principles of these circuits can be generalized to implement other, more complicated gauge symmetries. Furthermore, the circuit can be modularly scaled to any lattice configuration. Simulating the circuit dynamics with realistic circuit parameters we find that it implements the target dynamics with a steady average fidelity of $ 99.5\% $ or higher. Finally, we consider readout of the circuit using a method that yields information about all the degrees of freedom with resonators coupled dispersively to only a subset of them. This constitutes a direct and relatively straightforward protocol to access both Loschmidt amplitudes and the order parameter.

Towards a gender-sensitive framework for distance education in planning for development : a case study of an executive MBA/MPA program
Creators: name: Burman, Koyali
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Program planning is a vital activity in any organization. Over the years, different models and frameworks of program planning have been studied in adult and distance education. However, little research has been done in this field from a gender perspective. This then was the challenge which this study sought to address. To investigate this problem, this case study employed qualitative research methods including interviews, observations and document analysis. This research study sought to understand how gender-sensitivity could become a part of adult education program planning in a distance education organization. Therefore the study focused on the planning process of the Master of Business Administration/Master of Public Administration (MBA/MPA) program which is offered at Indira Gandhi National Open University, India in partnership with the Global Learning for Development (a pseudonym for an international educational institution promoting distance education for development). The study was informed by both previous and current staff members from the Global Learning for Development organization. The findings of the study revealed that Global Learning for Development organization had begun implementing gender-sensitive policy in program planning through its internal processes of shared responsibility and decision-making. In particular, it has begun to create strategies and practices for actively engaging men in gender-equality discourses within the organization's policy and program planning interventions. However, the research established that in the MBA/MPA program, little attention was being paid to women learners' differing needs and interests. Following the results of the study, the researcher proposed a general gender-sensitive program planning framework for the distance education planning process inspired by the Harvard Analytical and the Moser Frameworks of gender analysis. In each eight steps of the proposed framework, a gender perspective is identified, and the analysis applied to data on the Global Learning for Development's program planning process. The proposed framework should be viewed as a flexible tool. The study not only contributes a gender perspective to program planning theory but it also provides a framework designed to be applied in actual practice. In addition to the proposed framework, the study recommends further research focused on improving the current practice in program planning are offered.

description: In this paper we present a versatile method for the investigation of interaction networks and show how to use it to assess effects of indirect interactions and feedback loops. The method allows to evaluate the impact of optimization measures or failures on the system. Here, we will apply it to the investigation of catastrophes, in particular to the temporal development of disasters (catastrophe dynamics). The mathematical methods are related to the master equation, which allows the application of well-known solution methods. We will also indicate connections of disaster management with excitable media and supply networks. This facilitates to study the effects of measures taken by the emergency management or the local operation units. With a fictious, but more or less realistic example of a spreading epidemic disease or a wave of influenza, we illustrate how this method can, in principle, provide decision support to the emergency management during such a disaster. Similar considerations may help to assess measures to fight the SARS epidemics, although immunization is presently not possible.

description: Starting from the numerical solution of the 6-band \textbf{k.p} description of a lattice-mismatched ellipsoidal quantum dot situated inside a nanowire, including a spin Zeeman effect with values appropriate to a dilute magnetic semiconductor, we propose and test phenomenological models of the effect of the built-in strain on the heavy hole, light hole and exciton states. We test the validity and the limits of a description restricted to a ($Γ_8$) quadruplet of ground states and we demonstrate the role of the interactions of the light-hole state with light-hole excited states. We show that the built-in axial strain not only defines the character, heavy-hole or light-hole, of the ground state, but also mixes significantly the light-hole state with the split-off band's states: Even for a spin-orbit energy as large as 1 eV, that mixing induces first-order modifications of properties such as the spin value and anisotropy, the oscillator strength, and the electron-hole exchange, for which we extend the description to the light-hole exciton. CdTe/ZnTe quantum dots are mainly used as a test case but the concepts we discuss apply to many heterostructures, from mismatched II-VI and III-V quantum dots and nanowires, to III-V nanostructures submitted to an applied stress and to silicon nanodevices with even smaller residual strains.

description: This paper considers a class of non-Markovian discrete-time random processes on a finite state space {1,...,d}. The transition probabilities at each time are influenced by the number of times each state has been visited and by a fixed a priori likelihood matrix, R, which is real, symmetric and nonnegative. Let S_i(n) keep track of the number of visits to state i up to time n, and form the fractional occupation vector, V(n), where v_i(n)=S_i(n)/(sum_{j=1}^d S_j(n)). It is shown that V(n) converges to a set of critical points for the quadratic form H with matrix R, and that under nondegeneracy conditions on R, there is a finite set of points such that with probability one, V(n)->p for some p in the set. There may be more than one p in this set for which P(V(n)->p)>0. On the other hand P(V(n)->p)=0 whenever p fails in a strong enough sense to be maximum for H.

description: We present a new model of the heliospheric interface - the region of the solar wind interaction with the local interstellar medium. This new model performs a multi-component treatment of charged particles in the heliosphere. All charged particles are divided into several co-moving types. The coldest type, with parameters typical of original solar wind protons, is considered in the framework of fluid approximation. The hot pickup proton components created from interstellar H atoms and heliospheric ENAs by charge exchange, electron impact ionization and photoionization are treated kinetically. The charged components are considered self-consistently with interstellar H atoms, which are described kinetically as well. To solve the kinetic equation for H atoms we use the Monte Carlo method with splitting of trajectories, which allows us 1) to reduce statistical uncertainties allowing correct interpretation of observational data, 2) to separate all H atoms in the heliosphere into several populations depending on the place of their birth and on the type of parent protons.

title: Theology as witness to the living Christ : mapping the social implications of justification by faith with Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Creators: name: Verhagen, Koert
Publisher: name: University of St Andrews
Year: 2019

description: For Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Christian doctrine must bear witness to the living Christ who calls people to a specific form of life. The implication here is that doctrine is only genuinely Christian when it is Christologically oriented and its concrete bearing on human existence is taken seriously. Although many have noted the central import of the doctrine of justification for Bonhoeffer’s theology, there are few extended treatments of the topic and none that specifically attend to how justification fundamentally informs his anthropology and ethics. As such, this study aims to fill that gap by exploring the social implications of justification in Bonhoeffer’s thought. The thesis unfolds in two overlapping parts, which signal both development and continuity in Bonhoeffer’s thought. Chapters one through three pertain primarily to theological anthropology and constitute the first part. Here, Bonhoeffer’s early theology is engaged in order to suggest that justification fundamentally shapes his theological anthropology and, as such, informs his resistance to the racializing ideology of National Socialism. Chapters four through six comprise the second part, marking a shift toward ethics. They survey recent developments in Pauline theology in order to provide a lens through which to read Discipleship as an exposition of justification’s formative significance for the Christian life, before turning to Ethics and arguing that justification establishes Christians in the world as participants in Christ’s reconciling work. The conclusion of chapter six serves as a case study, which considers how re-orienting the church to the social implications of justification by faith might play an important role in its confrontation of white supremacy. By giving voice to the social implications of justification in Bonhoeffer’s theology, this thesis offers fresh and vital insights regarding how the doctrine bears witness to the living Christ who calls to discipleship.

description: We study the distribution of electronic spectral weight in a doped antiferromagnet with various types of charge order and compare to angle resolved photoemission experiments on lightly doped La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$ (LSCO) and electron doped Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_x$CuO$_{4\pmδ}$. Calculations on in-phase stripe and bubble phases for the electron doped system are both in good agreement with experiment including in particular the existence of in-gap spectral weight. In addition we find that for in-phase stripes, in contrast to anti-phase stripes, the chemical potential is likely to move with doping. For the hole doped system we find that ``staircase'' stripes which are globally diagonal but locally vertical or horizontal can reproduce the photoemission data whereas pure diagonal stripes cannot. We also calculate the magnetic structure factors of such staircase stripes and find that as the stripe separation is decreased with increased doping these evolve from diagonal to vertical separated by a coexistence region. The results suggest that the transition from horizontal to diagonal stripes seen in neutron scattering on underdoped LSCO may be a crossover between a regime where the typical length of straight stripe segments is longer than the inter-stripe spacing to one where it is shorter and that locally the stripes are always aligned with the Cu-O bonds.

description: Here we propose double-coil setup to allow high signal-to-noise ratio broad-range heteronuclear magnetic resonance imaging experiments: two independent coils, one of them tuned to $^{1}$H frequency to perform anatomical $^{1}$H imaging, and another one, metamaterial-inspired coil, tuned to the X-nucleus frequency. In this work our goal was to design a broad-range X-nuclei coil to cover $^{2}$H, $^{11}$B, $^{13}$C, $^{23}$Na, $^{7}$Li and $^{31}$P nuclear magnetic resonance frequencies, and to combine it with $^{1}$H coil in one setup. The system was designed for 11.7 T scanner, i.e., with 76-203 MHz frequency tuning range for the X-nuclei and tuned to 500 MHz for the proton coil. X-nuclei coil operates via excitation of the fundamental eigenmode of an array of parallel non-magnetic wires. The excitation of the array is provided via non-resonant feeding loop inductively coupled to the resonator. In order to tune the X-coil over such a wide range, both structural capacitance and inductance of the coil were made variable; narrow range tuning of the $^{1}$H coil is achieved via conventional tuning-matching circuit. Here, the design principle and setup tunability were investigated in simulations and experimentally.

description: We study the behavior of Random Walk in Random Environment (RWRE) on trees in the critical case left open in previous work. Representing the random walk by an electrical network, we assume that the ratios of resistances of neighboring edges of a tree Gamma are i.i.d.random variables whose logarithms have mean zero and finite variance. Then the resulting RWRE is transient if simple random walk on Gamma is transient, but not vice versa. We obtain general transience criteria for such walks, which are sharp for symmetric trees of polynomial growth. In order to prove these criteria, we establish results on boundary crossing by tree-indexed random walks. These results rely on comparison inequalities for percolation processes on trees and on some new estimates of boundary crossing probabilities for ordinary mean-zero finite variance random walks in one dimension, which are of independent interest.

description: The rotation of polarization occurs for light interacting with chiral materials. It requires the light states with opposite chiralities interact differently with the materials. We demonstrate analogous rotation of polarization also exists for chiral fermions interacting with quantum electrodynamics plasma with vorticity using chiral kinetic theory. We find that the rotation of polarization is perpendicular both to vorticity and fermion momentum. The effect also exists for chiral fermions in quantum chromodynamics plasma with vorticity. It could lead to generation of a vector current when the probe fermions contain momentum anisotropy.

description: Understanding the spin-wave excitations of chiral magnetic order, such as the skyrmion crystal (SkX), is of fundamental interest to confirm such exotic magnetic order. The SkX is realized by competing Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya and ferromagnetic-exchange interactions with a magnetic field or anisotropy. Here we compute the dynamical spin structure factor, using Monte Carlo and spin dynamics simulations, extracting the spin-wave spectrum in the SkX, in the vicinity of the paramagnet to SkX transition. Inside the SkX, we find six spin-wave modes, which are supplemented by another mode originating from the ferromagnetic background. Above the critical temperature $T_s$ for the skyrmion crystallization, we find a diffusive regime, reminiscent of the liquid-to-crystal transition, revealing that topological spin texture of skyrmionic character starts to develop above $T_s$ as the precursor of the SkX. We discuss the opportunities for the detection of the spin waves of the SkX using inelastic-neutron-scattering experiments in manganite-iridate heterostructures.

Women writers of Chinese poetry in late-Edo period Japan
Creators: name: Nagase, Mari
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: his dissertation investigates kanshi poems written by three Japanese women: Ema Saiko (1787-1861), Hara Saihin (1798-1859), and Takahashi Gyokusho (1802-1868). These three women from the late Edo period cultivated excellent literacy in classical Chinese and established their reputations as scholars and poets. However, their works in Chinese have been underestimated in modern scholarship. The goal of my dissertation is to re-situate these highly literary women more accurately in the discourse of "Japanese literature," while challenging established ideas about "women's literature" and "Edo literature." The introductory chapter argues against the dismissal of Edo-period women kanshi writers. Firstly, it examines the general underestimation of women writers from the Edo period and the dismissal of works written in Chinese from the category of "Japanese literature." Secondly, it investigates the late Edo-period cultural and ideological background, which supported the emergence of women kanshi writers. The next three chapters explore works of each poet. Saihin was a vigorous scholar and poet from Kyushu. She lived in Edo for twenty years, determined to make herself a successful Confucian scholar. I illuminate her complex gender identification, as presented in her poems, while describing her astounding aspirations. Ema Saiko, a scholar-painter and poet, is known for her feminine style in the genre of kanshi. While I examine her conscious use of "feminine expressions," I also present the diversity of her poetic subjects. Takahashi Gyokusho from Sendai established herself as an educator and poet in Edo. She often hosted fund-raising literary parties, and published two anthologies during her lifetime. A comparison of Gyokusho and Saihin, two female scholars who lived in Edo, elucidates how affiliations with different poetic societies affected their careers and poetry. The relative prominence of women kanshi writers in the late Edo period becomes clear through this study. The kanshi writers were, indeed, precursors of early modern Japanese women educators and writers. This dissertation bridges the literary effort by women of the Edo and Meiji periods, while contributing to a revision of the history of women's literature in Japan and correcting a distorted image of the literary environment for women of the Edo period.

description: We suggest a consistent microscopic theory of spin injection from a ferromagnet (FM) into a semiconductor (S). It describes tunneling and emission of electrons through modified FM-S Schottky barrier with an ultrathin heavily doped interfacial S layer . We calculate nonlinear spin-selective properties of such a reverse-biased FM-S junction, its nonlinear I-V characteristic, current saturation, and spin accumulation in S. We show that the spin polarization of current, spin density, and penetration length increase with the total current until saturation. We find conditions for most efficient spin injection, which are opposite to the results of previous works, since the present theory suggests using a lightly doped resistive semiconductor. It is shown that the maximal spin polarizations of current and electrons (spin accumulation) can approach 100% at room temperatures and low current density in a nondegenerate high-resistance semiconductor.

description: In this paper, we generalize the concept of strong quantum nonlocality from two aspects. Firstly in $\mathbb{C}^d\otimes\mathbb{C}^d\otimes\mathbb{C}^d$ quantum system, we present a construction of strongly nonlocal quantum states containing $6(d-1)^2$ orthogonal product states, which is one order of magnitude less than the number of basis states $d^3$. Secondly, we give the explicit form of strongly nonlocal orthogonal product basis in $\mathbb{C}^3\otimes \mathbb{C}^3\otimes \mathbb{C}^3\otimes \mathbb{C}^3$ quantum system, where four is the largest known number of subsystems in which there exists strong quantum nonlocality up to now. Both the two results positively answer the open problems in [Halder, \textit{et al.}, PRL, 122, 040403 (2019)], that is, there do exist and even smaller number of quantum states can demonstrate strong quantum nonlocality without entanglement.

The valva in Evans’ (1952) illustration is shorter than reality, a feature common to many of his Bungalotis depictions. No variation was noted within the series from Rondônia.
 Bungalotis erythus is rare in the vicinity of Cacaulândia, with records for February, July, November, and December (Fig. 126). This species has been reported from southern Mexico south into northeastern South America to Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and the Distrito Federal, Brazil (Williams and Bell 1934, Evans 1952, Brown and Mielke 1967, Freeman 1976, de la Maza and de la Maza 1985, Cock and Alston-Smith 1990, de la Maza and Gutiérrez 1992, Murray 1996, Robbins et al. 1996, Warren 2000, Pinheiro and Emery 2006).

description: Consider the nearest neighbor graph for the integer lattice Z^d in d dimensions. For a large finite piece of it, consider choosing a spanning tree for that piece uniformly among all possible subgraphs that are spanning trees. As the piece gets larger, this approaches a limiting measure on the set of spanning graphs for Z^d. This is shown to be a tree if and only if d=<4. In this case, the tree has only one topological end, i.e. there are no doubly infinite paths. When d>=5 the spanning forest has infinitely many components almost surely, with each component having one or two topological ends.

description: This study investigates a parameterization of all output-rectifying retrofit controllers for distributed design of a structured controller. It has been discovered that all retrofit controllers can be characterized as a constrained Youla parameterization, which is difficult to solve analytically. For synthesis, a tractable and insightful class of retrofit controllers, referred to as output-rectifying retrofit controllers, has been introduced. An unconstrained parameterization of all output-rectifying retrofit controllers can be derived under a technical assumption on measurability of particular signals. The aim of this note is to reveal the structure of all output-rectifying retrofit controllers in the general output-feedback case. It is found out that the existing developments can be generalized based on the notions of state projection and an inverse system. The result leads to the conclusion that output-rectifying retrofit controllers can readily be designed even in the general case.

description: A novel model of transport is proposed to explain power law current transients and memory phenomena observed in partially ordered arrays of semiconducting nanocrystals. The model describes electron transport by a stationary Levy process of transmission events and thereby requires no time dependence of system properties. The waiting time distribution with a characteristic long tail gives rise to a nonstationary response in the presence of a voltage pulse. We report on noise measurements that agree well with the predicted non-Poissonian fluctuations in current, and discuss possible mechanisms leading to this behavior.

description: Bungalotis borax Evans, 1952
(Fig. 22-23, 92, 126)
 Evans (1952) described B. borax based on a male type from French Guiana (Guyane) and additional material from there, British Guiana (Guyana), and the lower Amazon (Fonte Boa, Ega, Pará) in northern Brazil. The species was subsequently recorded from Suriname (de Jong 1983). Records for Rondônia represent a substantial distributional extension. The two males (FW length = 28.5 mm, n = 1) of B. borax examined from Rondônia (April, October) are bright tawny on both dorsal wings. These have narrow brown outer margins and series of postmedial brown macules. The macule in the discal cell on the forewing is close to, but not contiguous with, the macule in CuA 1 -CuA 2, which is offset proximad from the rest of the postmedial macules. The costa of the hindwing is shaded with brown distad, but the base of cell Rs-M 1 is of ground color proximad. The venter is similar to the dorsum, but duller, and the margins are more broadly brown. The macules on both wings have dark tawny centers. Male genitalia (Fig. 92) exhibit the distinctive short uncus and toothed sacculus as shown by Evans (1952). The differences in the configuration of the harpe between Evans’ (1952) illustration and that shown here may be individual variation or Evans’ depiction suffers from the same malady as many of his other illustrations of the genitalia of Bungalotis.

Unconventional superconductivity and magnetism in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ and related materials

description: We review the normal and superconducting state properties of the unconventional triplet superconductor Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ with an emphasis on the analysis of the magnetic susceptibility and the role played by strong electronic correlations. In particular, we show that the magnetic activity arises from the itinerant electrons in the Ru $d$-orbitals and a strong magnetic anisotropy occurs ($χ^{+-} < χ^{zz}$) due to spin-orbit coupling. The latter results mainly from different values of the $g$-factor for the transverse and longitudinal components of the spin susceptibility (i.e. the matrix elements differ). Most importantly, this anisotropy and the presence of incommensurate antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic fluctuations have strong consequences for the symmetry of the superconducting order parameter. In particular, reviewing spin fluctuation-induced Cooper-pairing scenario in application to Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ we show how p-wave Cooper-pairing with line nodes between neighboring RuO$_2$-planes may occur. We also discuss the open issues in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ like the influence of magnetic and non-magnetic impurities on the superconducting and normal state of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$. It is clear that the physics of triplet superconductivity in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is still far from being understood completely and remains to be analyzed more in more detail. It is of interest to apply the theory also to superconductivity in heavy-fermion systems exhibiting spin fluctuations.

description: Bungalotis gagarini Mielke, 1967
(Fig. 24-25, 89, 126)
 Bungalotis gagarini was known only from a single male from Goiás, Brazil, taken in May (Mielke 1967b). Males from Rondônia (mean FW length = 29.0 mm [28.6-29.4, n = 5]) are not fulvous like B. midas and B. astylos as was described for the holotype (Mielke 1967b), but are bright red-brown and vary in the prominence of the dorsal dark macules from nearly obsolete to vague. The macules on the ventral hindwing are generally entirely dark, but the posterior submarginal macules or all of the macules may have whitish centers. Male genitalia (Fig. 89) are identical to those of the holotype illustrated by Mielke (1967b).
 In Rondônia, B. gagarini is rare and has been recorded in May, June, October, and November (Fig. 126). These records extend the known distribution of the species about 1700km westward.

description: Within the framework of Soft Collinear Effective Theory, we present calculations of semi-inclusive jet functions and fragmenting jet functions at next-to-leading order (NLO) for both quark- and gluon-initiated jets, for jet algorithms of $J_{E_T}^{(I)}$ and $J_{E_T}^{(II)}$ where one maximizes a suitable jet function. We demonstrate the consistency of the obtained results with the standard perturbative QCD calculations for $J_{E_T}^{(I)}$ algorithm, while the results for fragmenting jet functions with the $J_{E_T}^{(II)}$ algorithm are new. The renormalization group (RG) equation for both semi-inclusive jet functions and fragmenting jet functions are derived and shown to follow the time-like DGLAP evolution equations, independent of specific jet algorithms. The RG equation can be used to resum single logarithms of the jet size parameter $β$ for highly collimated jets in these algorithms where $β\gg 1$.
