description: The problem of extrapolation and interpolation of asymptotic series is considered. Several new variants of improving the accuracy of the self-similar approximants are suggested. The methods are illustrated by examples typical of chemical physics, when one is interested in finding the equation of state for a strongly interacting system. A special attention is payed to the study of the basic properties of fluctuating fluid membranes. It is shown that these properties can be well described by means of the method of self-similar approximants. For this purpose, the method has been generalized in order to give accurate predictions at infinity for a function, whose behavior is known only at the region of its variable close to zero. The obtained results for fluctuating fluid membranes are in good agreement with the known numerical data.

Mangrove poetics : writing community in Hispanic Caribbean diasporas
Creators: name: O'Regan, Karen Rebecca Denise
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: How do writers of Hispanic Caribbean diasporas write community in a transborder era? This dissertation focuses on contemporary literature of the Cuban and Dominican diasporas that challenges notions of belonging as tied to a specific place, nationality, culture, or social group. Examining works by Severo Sarduy, Achy Obejas, Loída Maritza Pérez, and Junot Díaz, this project argues that such writing redefines the parameters of coexistence to imagine solidarities that escape categorization. Rather than affirming identities limited to a Cuban, Dominican, or North American body politic, these texts invite the reader to contemplate commonalities that privilege negotiation over identity politics. As characters participate in intercontaminations of socio-cultural praxes, their connections form neither bounded nor undifferentiated collectivities but open rhizomes of relation with the world. They thus preclude any attempt to distinguish a singular race, ethnicity, religion, class, gender, or sexuality as the basis of their solidarity. This discussion of writing that reconsiders the performance of community takes shape in the pairing of Édouard Glissant’s concept of Relation and Giorgio Agamben’s community theory. These thinkers’ notions of human interaction across boundaries provide a framework for understanding how fiction problematizes discourses of exclusion and inclusion with a poetics of inessential sociality. Contributing to the dialogue on belonging in the literature of Hispanic Caribbean diasporas, this study opens space for research into narratives of unrepresentable communities and their dissonant potentialities.

description: The main reason for the generation of tsunamis is the deformation of the bottom of the ocean caused by an underwater earthquake. Usually, only the vertical bottom motion is taken into account while the horizontal co-seismic displacements are neglected in the absence of landslides. In the present study we propose a methodology based on the well-known Okada solution to reconstruct in more details all components of the bottom coseismic displacements. Then, the sea-bed motion is coupled with a three-dimensional weakly nonlinear water wave solver which allows us to simulate a tsunami wave generation. We pay special attention to the evolution of kinetic and potential energies of the resulting wave while the contribution of the horizontal displacements into wave energy balance is also quantified. Such contribution of horizontal displacements to the tsunami generation has not been discussed before, and it is different from the existing approaches. The methods proposed in this study are illustrated on the July 17, 2006 Java tsunami and some more recent events.

description: We present a detailed study of a bipolar, possible Type I planetary nebula (PN), PHR1315-6555 (PN G305.3-03.1), that was discovered as part of the Macquarie/AAO/Strasbourg H-alpha planetary nebula project (MASH) and that we considered at the time was an excellent candidate for membership of the distant, compact, intermediate-age open cluster, ESO 96-SC04. The strong evidence for this association is presented here making this the only known example of a PN physically associated with a Galactic open cluster. Cluster membership is extremely important as it allows for very precise estimates of the fundamental properties of the PN as the cluster is at a known distance. The PN was discovered by one of us (QAP) during systematic MASH searches for new Galactic PNe of the AAO/UKST H-alpha survey and had been missed in earlier broadband surveys, including specific CCD studies of the host cluster. We present original discovery images and CTIO 4m MOSAIC-II camera follow-up narrow-band images that reveal its bipolar morphology. We also present: (i) low-resolution optical spectra that spectroscopically confirm the PN; (ii) accurate radial velocities of the PN and cluster stars from high resolution spectroscopy which show they are consistent; and (iii) a reliable, independent distance estimate to the PN using a robust PN distance indicator which agrees with the published cluster distance to within the errors. We also provide preliminary estimates of basic PN properties and abundance estimates from deeper spectra that show it to be of possible Type I chemistry. This is also consistent its estimated turn-off mass. Taken together these findings present a powerful case for clear physical association between the PN and host cluster. Results for this association will be of considerable interest to specialists across differing astrophysical disciplines, including PNe, white dwarfs, and open clusters.

Inhibition of the Precipitin Reaction by Optically Active Haptens and by Derivatives of the Homologous Hapten

description: The work described in this thesis is part of a program of investigation of immunological reactions being carried out at the California Institute of Technology by Drs. Linus Pauling, David Pressman, Dan H. Campbell, and others. Part I consists largely of the results reported in Paper X of the series "The Serological Properties of Simple Substances", published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.

The phenomenon of hapten inhibition was discovered by Landsteiner, when, to explain the f act that no precipitation occurred with an excess of test azoprotein, he postulated that a reaction did occur between the antibodies and the specific groups of the test antigen, but the products were soluble. A similar effect should be expected if molecules of the simple hapten were present in the solution; i.e., the amount of precipitate formed with optimum amounts of antiserum and antigen should be much less with hapten present than with antiserum and antigen alone. This effect was observed by Landsteiner.

It was also found. that simple compounds having a structure closely similar to that of the homologous hapten would inhibit the precipitation, though to a lesser degree. This fact has been utilized in this investigation as described in Part I, using d- and ℓ-N-(α-methylbenzyl) succinamic acid, a derivative of N-benzylsuccinamic acid which closely resembles the homologous hapten, succinanilic acid. The affect of various substituents in various positions on the molecule of the homologous hapten is described in Part II.

description: We have coupled a chemical model with two dynamical models of collapsing low mass star-forming cores to predict abundances across the core of the commonly used infall tracers, CS and HCO$^+$, at various stages of the collapse. The models investigated are a new ambipolar diffusion model and the `inside-out' collapse model. We have then used these results as an input to a radiative transfer model to predict the line profiles of several transitions of these molecules. For the inside-out collapse model, we predict significant molecular depletion due to freeze-out in the core centre, which prevents the formation of the blue asymmetry (believed to be the `signature' of infall) in the line profiles. Molecular depletion also occurs in the ambipolar diffusion model during the late stages of collapse, but the line profiles still exhibit a strong blue asymmetry due to extended infall. For the inside-out collapse model to exhibit the blue asymmetry it is necessary to impose a negative kinetic temperature gradient on the core and suppress freeze-out. Since freeze-out is observed in several class 0 protostars which are thought to be collapsing, this presents a major inconsistency in the inside-out collapse model of star formation.

description: In this work, we study the non-equilibrium dynamics of Φ-spinning black rings within the quasilocal formalism. We adopt the counterterm method and compute the renormalized boundary stress-energy tensor. By considering the conservation of this tensor, the condition for removing the conical singularity at spatial infinity is derived. It is subsequently shown that a Φ-spinning black ring cannot be kept in a state of equilibrium, which is consistent with the physical interpretation that the angular momentum is on the plane orthogonal to the ring and there is no force to balance the tension and gravitational self-attraction. The results of these computations lay a foundation for studying the thermodynamics of Φ-spinning rings in detail. Finally, we charge up the rings in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton system and suggest feasible ways to make them balanced.

description: We perform a functional expansion of the fidelity between two unitary matrices in order to find the necessary conditions for the robust implementation of a target gate. Comparison of these conditions with those obtained from the Magnus expansion and Dyson series shows that they are equivalent in first order. By exploiting techniques from robust design optimization, we account for issues of experimental feasibility by introducing an additional criterion to the search for control pulses. This search is accomplished by exploring the competition between the multiple objectives in the implementation of the NOT gate by means of evolutionary multi-objective optimization.

description: A classic theorem in the theory of connections on principal fiber bundles states that the evaluation of all holonomy functions gives enough information to characterize the bundle structure (among those sharing the same structure group and base manifold) and the connection up to a bundle equivalence map. This result and other important properties of holonomy functions has encouraged their use as the primary ingredient for the construction of families of quantum gauge theories. However, in these applications often the set of holonomy functions used is a discrete proper subset of the set of holonomy functions needed for the characterization theorem to hold. We show that the evaluation of a discrete set of holonomy functions does not characterize the bundle and does not constrain the connection modulo gauge appropriately. We exhibit a discrete set of functions of the connection and prove that in the abelian case their evaluation characterizes the bundle structure (up to equivalence), and constrains the connection modulo gauge up to "local details" ignored when working at a given scale. The main ingredient is the Lie algebra valued curvature function $F_S (A)$ defined below. It covers the holonomy function in the sense that $\exp{F_S (A)} = {\rm Hol}(l= \partial S, A)$.

Design and evaluation of nonverbal motion cues for human-robot spatial interaction
Creators: name: Hetherington, Nicholas James
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Mobile robots have recently appeared in public spaces such as shopping malls, airports, and urban sidewalks. These robots are designed with human-aware motion planning capabilities, but they are not designed to communicate with pedestrians. Pedestrians encounter these robots without any training or prior understanding of the robots’ behaviour, which can cause discomfort, confusion, and delay social acceptance. The two studies described in this thesis evaluate robot communication cues designed for human-robot spatial interactions in public spaces. By communicating robot behaviour to pedestrians, these cues aim to increase the social acceptability of mobile robots. Both studies use videos of the robot cues and online surveys to collect data from human participants. Study 1 evaluates two different modalities for communicating a robot’s movement to pedestrians: flashing lights and light projection. Previous reviewed literature had not directly compared these two modalities of motion legibility cues. Study 1 also compares using these cues to communicate path information or goal information, which are contributing factors to legible robot motion. Previous reviewed literature had not compared path and goal information for motion legibility cues using visual modalities. Results show that light projection is a more socially acceptable modality than flashing lights, and that these cues are most socially acceptable when they communicate both path and goal information. Study 2 evaluates different communication cues used by a robot to yield to a pedestrian at a doorway. The experiment compared decelerating, retreating, and rotating motions. These motions had not previously been directly compared in this context. Results show that a robot retreating behaviour was the most socially acceptable cue. The results of this work help guide the development of mobile robots for public spaces.

description: Muon spin relaxation measurements are reported on samples of dimethylammonium metal formates containing magnetic divalent nickel, cobalt, manganese, and copper ions. These hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites exhibit weak ferromagnetism and are, apart from the copper system, multiferroics with well separated magnetic and antiferroelectric transitions. We use muons to follow the sublattice magnetization, observing the effect of the spin reorientation transitions below TN and the criticality approaching TN. The multiferroic samples have three-dimensional antiferromagnetic interactions, but the copper sample shows quasi-one-dimensional behavior due to its Jahn-Teller distorted structure, with a ratio of its inter- and intrachain exchange constants j/J=0.037.

description: We propose a fast penalized spline method for bivariate smoothing. Univariate P-spline smoothers (Eilers and Marx, 1996) are applied simultaneously along both coordinates. The new smoother has a sandwich form which suggested the name "sandwich smoother" to a referee. The sandwich smoother has a tensor product structure that simplifies an asymptotic analysis and it can be fast computed. We derive a local central limit theorem for the sandwich smoother, with simple expressions for the asymptotic bias and variance, by showing that the sandwich smoother is asymptotically equivalent to a bivariate kernel regression estimator with a product kernel. As far as we are aware, this is the first central limit theorem for a bivariate spline estimator of any type. Our simulation study shows that the sandwich smoother is orders of magnitude faster to compute than other bivariate spline smoothers, even when the latter are computed using a fast GLAM (Generalized Linear Array Model) algorithm, and comparable to them in terms of mean squared integrated errors. We extend the sandwich smoother to array data of higher dimensions, where a GLAM algorithm improves the computational speed of the sandwich smoother. One important application of the sandwich smoother is to estimate covariance functions in functional data analysis. In this application, our numerical results show that the sandwich smoother is orders of magnitude faster than local linear regression. The speed of the sandwich formula is important because functional data sets are becoming quite large.

description: We study the rho meson in a uniform magnetic field eB using a holographic QCD-model, more specifically a D4/D8/Dbar8 brane setup in the confinement phase at zero temperature with two quenched flavours. The parameters of the model are fixed by matching to corresponding dual field theory parameters at zero magnetic field. We show that the up- and down-flavour branes respond differently to the presence of the magnetic field in the dual QCD-like theory, as expected because of the different electromagnetic charge carried by up- and down-quark. We discuss how to recover the Landau levels, indicating an instability of the QCD vacuum at eB = m_rho^2 towards a phase where charged rho mesons are condensed, as predicted by Chernodub using effective QCD-models. We improve on these existing effective QCD-model analyses by also taking into account the chiral magnetic catalysis effect, which tells us that the constituent quark masses rise with eB. This turns out to increase the value of the critical magnetic field for the onset of rho meson condensation to eB = 1.1 m_rho^2 = 0.67 GeV^2. We briefly discuss the influence of pions, which turn out to be irrelevant for the condensation in the approximation made.

Impactful interactions : how the experience of social ostracization influences our moral judgments of others
Creators: name: Carpenter, Tara Louise
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Social connectedness is a fundamental human need (Baumeister, & Leary, 1995). As an inherently social species, we rely on others for protection, survival, and reproductive success; as such, we are necessarily sensitive to threats to our social connections. This dissertation examined whether individuals that socially ostracize others are perceived as lacking in moral foundations, and whether this effect is moderated by the racial ingroup or outgroup status of the individuals perpetrating the ostracization. I also evaluated individuals’ interest in, and reasoning for, socially affiliative and socially aggressive responses following inclusion and ostracization. I found that the experience of social ostracization influenced judgements of others’ likelihood of violating the moral foundations of fairness and authority, but not of caring, loyalty, or sanctity, irrespective of the others’ ingroup or outgroup status. The experience of social ostracization also influenced participants socially affiliative and social aggressive responses, again irrespective of the others’ ingroup or outgroup status.

description: The Parkes Galactic All-Sky Survey (GASS) is a survey of Galactic atomic hydrogen (HI) emission in the southern sky observed with the Parkes 64-m Radio Telescope. The first data release was published by McClure-Griffiths et al. (2009). We remove instrumental effects that affect the GASS and present the second data release. We calculate the stray-radiation by convolving the all-sky response of the Parkes antenna with the brightness temperature distribution from the Leiden/Argentine/Bonn (LAB) all sky 21-cm line survey, with major contributions from the 30-m dish of the Instituto Argentino de Radioastronomia (IAR) in the southern sky. Remaining instrumental baselines are corrected using the LAB data for a first guess of emission-free baseline regions. Radio frequency interference is removed by median filtering. After applying these corrections to the GASS we find an excellent agreement with the Leiden/Argentine/Bonn (LAB) survey. The GASS is the highest spatial resolution, most sensitive, and is currently the most accurate HI survey of the Galactic HI emission in the southern sky. We provide a web interface for generation and download of FITS cubes.

This free energy supports a tricritical point which is different from the conventional one and this change offers a correct understanding of the experimental phase diagram of imbalanced Fermi systems (Shin et al, Nature, 2008). The specific heat also happens to be different than in standard theory.

description: Questo percorso di ricerca si è posto l'obiettivo di mettere in atto un'esperienza di peer tutoring applicata alle Scienze Naturali, tramite la progettazione e la realizzazione da parte degli allievi di una giornata-progetto, in cui essi potessero assumere il ruolo significativo di tutor dei propri compagni. Tale progetto è nato dal desiderio di sperimentare un'innovazione nell'apprendimento disciplinare, tuttavia nel corso della realizzazione sono emersi altri interrogativi inerenti lo sviluppo di altri aspetti educativi. I dati, raccolti tramite questionari durante la ricerca, sono stati analizzati e discussi secondo un approccio qualitativo. L'esperienza ha dimostrato che i risultati raggiunti adottando questa forma d'insegnamento sono rilevanti, a maggior ragione se si tiene in considerazione lo sviluppo delle competenze emotive raggiunto nel durante il percorso. Gli allievi hanno espresso, nelle loro risposte, pareri positivi, che evidenziavano il maggior apprendimento derivante dal maggior coinvolgimento. Considerevole è stato anche l'aumento del senso di autoefficacia in conclusione del progetto. Grazie a questa esperienza di educazione tra pari si è riuscito a rispondere ad alcuni dei bisogni degli allievi nell'ambito del sapere, del saper fare e del saper essere.

Rational design of Notch2 and ER-AF2 inhibitors as prospective bladder cancer and breast cancer therapies
Creators: name: Bafna, Divya
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Breast cancer (BCa) and Bladder Cancer (BdCa) are among the most predominantly diagnosed malignancies in women and men, respectively. The NOTCH signaling pathway is a targetable interest in developing effective therapy for BdCa while Estrogen Receptor α (ERα+) is still the most prominent drug target in BCa. It is well established however, that currently available options for Notch and ERα inhibition suffer from lack of selectivity. Thus, the two subtypes of ER - α and β have contrasting effects on BCa cells. While ERα promotes cancerous activities, ERβ isoform exhibits inhibitory effects on the same. Moreover, long term conventional therapy of BCa induces resistance with an increased risk of endometrial cancer onset. Similarly, Notch proteins are highly conserved in structure but possess very diverse functionality, with Notch 1 being a tumor suppressor, while closely-related Notch 2 being an onco-driver in BdCa and its current targeting strategies results in adverse off-target effects. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop novel drugs with alternative targeting mechanisms that can overcome the limitations of conventional Notch2- and ERα-based therapies. With the help of Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD) technology, we have discovered novel small molecules to target previously unattended AF2 site on ERα and the S2 site on Notch 2 to achieve the desired selectivity in inhibition while overcoming the conventional therapy’s caveats.

description: We discuss in detail a method to study transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs) using lattice QCD. To develop the formalism and to obtain first numerical results, we directly implement a bi-local quark-quark operator connected by a straight Wilson line, allowing us to study T-even, "process-independent" TMDs. Beyond results for x-integrated TMDs and quark densities, we present a study of correlations in x and transverse momentum. Our calculations are based on domain wall valence quark propagators by the LHP collaboration calculated on top of gauge configurations provided by MILC with 2+1 flavors of asqtad-improved staggered sea quarks.

description: Any one-cusped hyperbolic manifold M with an unknotting tunnel tau is obtained by Dehn filling a cusp of a two-cusped hyperbolic manifold. In the case where M is obtained by "generic" Dehn filling, we prove that tau is isotopic to a geodesic, and characterize whether tau is isotopic to an edge in the canonical decomposition of M. We also give explicit estimates (with additive error only) on the length of tau relative to a maximal cusp. These results give generic answers to three long-standing questions posed by Adams, Sakuma, and Weeks. We also construct an explicit sequence of one-tunnel knots in S^3, all of whose unknotting tunnels have length approaching infinity.

description: L'obiettivo della ricerca condotta è stato quello di indagare se le attività strutturate sul principio del Cooperative Learning nella disciplina dell’educazione visiva, possano migliorare le competenze collaborative degli studenti e promuovere un'atmosfera cooperativa. Grazie all'approccio di ricerca-azione basato su una metodologia qualitativa, si è potuto constatare che le attività strutturate in gruppi eterogenei (allievo forte, medio, debole), incentrate sull'apprendimento cooperativo, favoriscono la collaborazione tra gli studenti, sviluppando una reciproca dipendenza positiva e migliorando le loro competenze sociali. In aggiunta, il lavoro di gruppo permette di incrementare la motivazione intrinseca dei discenti e raggiungere risultati che sarebbe difficile ottenere individualmente, oltre che migliorare i processi cognitivi degli studenti. La ricerca ha confermato l'ipotesi che le attività strutturate secondo il Cooperative Learning possono migliorare le competenze sociali e trasversali degli studenti, quali il pensiero critico, la comunicazione e la negoziazione e favorire un maggior spirito cooperativo così come la motivazione intrinseca. Attraverso l'interazione e la collaborazione, gli studenti imparano ad ascoltare gli altri, a esprimere le proprie opinioni in modo chiaro e convincente, a negoziare e ad arrivare ad una conciliazione con i propri compagni. Ciò aumenta la loro motivazione intrinseca nell'apprendimento, in quanto la collaborazione con i compagni rende il lavoro scolastico più interessante e coinvolgente. Relatore: Davide Antognazza.

description: We simulate direct photon production in evolution of viscous QGP medium. Photons from Compton and annihilation processes are considered. Viscous effect on photon production is very strong and reliable simulation is possible only in a limited $p_T$ range. For minimally viscous fluid $η/s$=0.08), direct photons can be reliably computed only up to $p_T \leq$ 1.3 GeV. With reduced viscosity ($η/s$=0.04), the limit increases to $p_T \leq $2GeV.

description: The introduction of physical layer network coding gives rise to the concept of turning a collision of transmissions on a wireless channel useful. In the idea of physical layer network coding, two synchronized simultaneous packet transmissions are carefully encoded such that the superimposed transmission can be decoded to produce a packet which is identical to the bitwise binary sum of the two transmitted packets. This paper explores the decoding of superimposed transmission resulted by multiple synchronized simultaneous transmissions. We devise a coding scheme that achieves the identification of individual transmission from the synchronized superimposed transmission. A mathematical proof for the existence of such a coding scheme is given.

description: In recent years the possibility of measuring the temporal change of radial and transverse position of sources in the sky in real time have become conceivable thanks to the thoroughly improved technique applied to new astrometric and spectroscopic experiments, leading to the research domain we call Real-time cosmology. We review for the first time great part of the work done in this field, analysing both the theoretical framework and some endeavor to foresee the observational strategies and their capability to constrain models. We firstly focus on real time measurements of the overall redshift drift and angular separation shift in distant source, able to trace background cosmic expansion and large scale anisotropy, respectively. We then examine the possibility of employing the same kind of observations to probe peculiar and proper acceleration in clustered systems and therefore the gravitational potential. The last two sections are devoted to the short time future change of the cosmic microwave background, as well as to the temporal shift of the temperature anisotropy power spectrum and maps. We conclude revisiting in this context the effort made to forecast the power of upcoming experiments like CODEX, GAIA and PLANCK in providing these new observational tools.

Genus 0 characteristic numbers of the tropical projective plane

description: Finding the so-called characteristic numbers of the complex projective plane ${\mathbb C}P^2$ is a classical problem of enumerative geometry posed by Zeuthen more than a century ago. For a given $d$ and $g$ one has to find the number of degree $d$ genus $g$ curves that pass through a certain generic configuration of points and at the same time are tangent to a certain generic configuration of lines. The total number of points and lines in these two configurations is $3d-1+g$ so that the answer is a finite integer number. In this paper we translate this classical problem to the corresponding enumerative problem of tropical geometry in the case when $g=0$. Namely, we show that the tropical problem is well-posed and establish a special case of the correspondence theorem that ensures that the corresponding tropical and classical numbers coincide. Then we use the floor diagram calculus to reduce the problem to pure combinatorics. As a consequence, we express genus 0 characteristic numbers of $\CC P^2$ in terms of open Hurwitz numbers.

description: The spatial correlations in transmitter node locations introduced by common multiple access protocols makes the analysis of interference, outage, and other related metrics in a wireless network extremely difficult. Most works therefore assume that nodes are distributed either as a Poisson point process (PPP) or a grid, and utilize the independence properties of the PPP (or the regular structure of the grid) to analyze interference, outage and other metrics. But,the independence of node locations makes the PPP a dubious model for nontrivial MACs which intentionally introduce correlations, e.g. spatial separation, while the grid is too idealized to model real networks. In this paper, we introduce a new technique based on the factorial moment expansion of functionals of point processes to analyze functions of interference, in particular outage probability. We provide a Taylor-series type expansion of functions of interference, wherein increasing the number of terms in the series provides a better approximation at the cost of increased complexity of computation. Various examples illustrate how this new approach can be used to find outage probability in both Poisson and non-Poisson wireless networks.
