description: Besides physiological, behavioural, and affective effects, romantic love also has cognitive effects. In this study, we tested (1) whether individual differences in infatuation and/or attachment level predict impaired interference control even in the absence of a love booster procedure, and (2) whether individual differences in attachment level predict reduced adaptive cognitive control as measured by conflict adaptation and post-error slowing. Eighty-three young adults who had recently fallen in love completed a Stroop-like task, which yielded reliable indices of interference control (i.e. the interference effect) and adaptive cognitive control (i.e. conflict adaptation and post-error slowing). We did not observe the predicted negative association between infatuation or attachment level and interference control. It might be that reduced interference control with love only happens when people are actively thinking about their beloved. In addition, we observed only weak evidence for the prediction that attachment level is associated with reduced conflict adaption. The results did show, however, that attachment level is associated with less post-error slowing, which is in line with the notion that attachment to a romantic partner buffers against aversive events. Our findings suggest that attachment is associated with reduced adaptive cognitive control, which could have implications in everyday life.

description: SINHOMIDIA ZHANG GEN. NOV.
 Type species: Acanthocyrtus bicolor Yosii, 1965
 Type locality: Wulai, Taiwan, China.
 Diagnosis: The genus is characterized by eight + eight eyes, pointed scales with coarse striations present on body but absent on dens, presence of dental spines, clavate tenent hair, bidentate mucro with a basal spine and larger subapical tooth, two–three–two bothriotrichia on Abd. II –IV, slightly modified accessory microchaetae of bothriotrichial complex, and a row of anterior eyebrow-like macrochaetae on Abd. IV. As a member of Willowsiini sensu Yoshii (1989) by the absence of scales on dens, it resembles Homidia in dorsal cephalic chaetotaxy, eyebrow-like macrochaetae on Abd. IV, smooth setae E and L 1 on labial base and larger subapical tooth on mucro; it differs from Homidia by the presence of scales on the body; it differs from the other seven genera of Willowsiini in the presence of dental spines, and also differs from members of Seirini in the absence of dental scales.
 Etymology: The new genus is named after Homidia, one genus widely distributed in China, for the many shared features.

description: The discovery of cosmic acceleration has triggered a consistent body of theoretical work aimed at modeling its phenomenology and understanding its fundamental physical nature. In recent years, a powerful formalism that accomplishes both these goals has been developed, the so-called effective field theory of dark energy. It can capture the behavior of a wide class of modified gravity theories and classify them according to the imprints they leave on the smooth background expansion history of the Universe and on the evolution of linear perturbations. The effective field theory of dark energy is based on a Lagrangian description of cosmological perturbations which depends on a number of functions of time, some of which are non-minimal couplings representing genuine deviations from General Relativity. Such a formalism is thus particularly convenient to fit and interpret the wealth of new data that will be provided by future galaxy surveys. Despite its recent appearance, this formalism has already allowed a systematic investigation of what lies beyond the General Relativity landscape and provided a conspicuous amount of theoretical predictions and observational results. In this review, we report on these achievements.

description: The African continent faces challenges from climate change, as manifested in the increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and rising global temperatures, which pose significant threats to food security and agricultural productivity. Despite its minimal contributions to global greenhouse gas emissions, Africa is particularly susceptible to climate change, given its heavy reliance on rain-fed agriculture and limited adaptive capacity. Due to the evolving climatic conditions, research indicates substantial yield reductions in essential crops such as wheat, maize, sorghum, and millet. Furthermore, climate change is expected to alter soil fertility, compounding the challenges confronted by African nations in providing sustenance for their burgeoning populations. With the agriculture sector employing approximately 75% of the African population, the adverse effects of escalating temperatures and shifting rainfall patterns on net farm revenues imperil livelihood security. Given the limited resources and infrastructure accessible to small-scale farmers in the region, it is imperative to develop and implement resilience-building strategies that mitigate the repercussions of climate change on agriculture and food security in Africa.

description: If a forest fragment maintains original heterogeneous habitat conditions after deforestation and fragmentation of the landscape, is it possible that distinct communities can still remain within the forest remnant as they once occurred in the continuous forest landscape? In the present study, we assessed whether a single forest fragment could harbour different bird communities and the potential factors driving this distinction. Bird abundance and composition were compared between two distinct regions within a single large forest fragment, which differ in topography and vegetation physiognomy. The forest fragment was located in southern Brazil and consisted of pristine semi-deciduous forest. Our analysis indicates the occurrence of two different bird communities within the interior area of a single forest fragment. Variation partitioning also indicated that environmental features, particularly bamboo cover and humidity, were the main factors explaining bird species occurrence. We suggest that habitat heterogeneity is important for the maintenance of these bird communities and it leads to: (1) high levels of bird species diversity, and (2) maintenance of important ecological mechanisms (e.g. species sorting) within the forest fragment. Understanding the ecological processes involved in habitat distribution inside single forest fragments is important, yet usually not properly evaluated in forest fragmentation studies. Our results suggest that considering forest fragments as single ecological units can be misleading. We highlight the need to critically evaluate individual features of forest fragments, beside other landscape metrics, in order to identify important forest fragments for biodiversity conservation.

description: We study the analogy between propagation of light rays in a stationary curved spacetime and in a toroidal (meta-)material. After introducing a novel gravitational analog of the index of refraction of a magneto-electric medium, it is argued that light rays not only feel a Lorentz-like force in a magneto-electric medium due to the non-vanishing curl of the toroidal moment, but also there exists an optical analog of Aharonov-Bohm effect for the rays traveling in a region with a curl-free toroidal moment. Experimental realization of this effect could utilize either a multiferroic material or a toroidal metamaterial.

description: Software repositories contain a plethora of useful information that can be used to enhance software projects. Prior work has leveraged repository data to improve many aspects of the software development process, such as, help extract requirement decisions, identify potentially defective code and improve maintenance and evolution. However, in many cases, practitioners are not able to fully benefit from software repositories due to the fact that they need special expertise and dedicated effort to mine their repositories. Therefore, in this paper, we use bots to automate and ease the process of extracting useful information from software repositories. Particularly, we lay out an approach of how bots, layered on top of software repositories, can be used to answer some of the most common software development/maintenance questions facing developers. We perform a preliminary study with 12 participants to validate the effectiveness of the bot. Our findings indicate that using bots achieves very promising results in terms of answer accuracy, speed and usefulness. Our work has the potential to transform the MSR field by significantly lowering the barrier to entry, making the extraction of useful information from software repositories as easy as chatting with a bot.

description: Analyses of collider data, often assisted by modern Machine Learning methods, condense a number of observables into a few powerful discriminants for the separation of the targeted signal process from the contributing backgrounds. These discriminants are highly correlated with important physical observables; using them in the event selection thus leads to the distortion of physically relevant distributions. We present a novel method based on a differentiable estimate of mutual information, a measure of non-linear dependency between variables, to construct a discriminant that is statistically independent of a number of selected observables, and so manages to preserve their distributions in the event selection. Our strategy is evaluated in a realistic setting, the analysis of the Standard Model Higgs boson decaying into a pair of bottom quarks. Using the distribution of the invariant mass of the di-b-jet system to extract the Higgs boson signal strength, our method achieves state-of-the-art performance compared to other decorrelation techniques, while significantly improving the sensitivity of a similar, cut-based, analysis published by ATLAS.

Volume and scale factors which were undetermined and had to be fixed by hand in previous derivations are automatically taken account of in this framework. Agreement with Witten's exact expressions for the partition function in the weak coupling (large k) limit is verified for gauge group SU(2) and spacetimes S^3, S^2 x S^1, S^1 x S^1 x S^1 and L(p,q).

description: A guiding principle in self-assembly is that, for high production yield, nucleation of structures must be significantly slower than their growth. However, details of the mechanism that impedes nucleation are broadly considered irrelevant. Here, we analyze self-assembly into finite-sized target structures employing mathematical modeling. We investigate two key scenarios to delay nucleation: (i) by introducing a slow activation step for the assembling constituents and, (ii) by decreasing the dimerization rate. These scenarios have widely different characteristics. While the dimerization scenario exhibits robust behavior, the activation scenario is highly sensitive to demographic fluctuations. These demographic fluctuations ultimately disfavor growth compared to nucleation and can suppress yield completely. The occurrence of this stochastic yield catastrophe does not depend on model details but is generic as soon as number fluctuations between constituents are taken into account. On a broader perspective, our results reveal that stochasticity is an important limiting factor for self-assembly and that the specific implementation of the nucleation process plays a significant role in determining the yield.

description: The central aim of this paper is to study (regional) fractional Poincaré type inequalities on unbounded domains satisfying the finite ball condition. Both existence and non existence type results are established depending on various conditions on domains and on the range of $s \in (0,1)$. The best constant in both regional fractional and fractional Poincaré inequality is characterized for strip like domains $(ω\times \mathbb{R}^{n-1})$, and the results obtained in this direction are analogous to those of the local case. This settles one of the natural questions raised by K. Yeressian in [\textit{Asymptotic behavior of elliptic nonlocal equations set in cylinders, Asymptot. Anal. 89, (2014), no 1-2}].

description: We study the formation rate of binary black hole mergers formed through gravitational-wave emission between unbound, single black holes in globular clusters. While the formation of these binaries in very dense systems such as galactic nuclei has been well studied, we show here that this process can operate in lower-density stellar systems as well, forming binaries at a rate similar to other proposed pathways for creating eccentric mergers. Recent advances in post-Newtonian cluster dynamics indicate that a large fraction of dynamically-assembled binary black holes merge inside their host clusters during weak and strong binary-single and binary-binary interactions, and that these systems may retain measurable eccentricities as they travel through the LIGO and LISA sensitivity bands. Using an analytic approach to modeling binary black holes from globular clusters, we show that the formation of merging binaries from previously unbound black holes can operate at a similar rate to mergers forming during strong binary encounters, and that these binaries inhabit a unique region of the gravitational-wave frequency space which can be identified by proposed deci-Hertz space-based detectors.

description: Two homologous series of the three-ring azo/ester compounds 2-(or1-) naphthyl 4ʹ-(4ʹ’-alkoxy phenylazo) benzoates (Ina and IIna) were synthesised. A lateral methyl group was introduced in different positions of the alkoxy phenyl moiety, in position-2 to give series Inb and IInb and in position-3 to give series Inc and IInc. Molecular structures were characterised via elemental analyses, infrared and 1H-NMR. Their mesophase characteristics were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and their phases identified via polarised light microscopy (PLM). Transition temperatures were correlated with the alkoxy-chain length (n) that varies between 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 carbons. Comparative studies were first made to investigate the effect of including the extra fused benzene ring, and its orientation, into the previously investigated three-ring compounds, 4-phenyl 4ʹ-(4′′-alkoxyphenylazo) benzoates (IIIna). Investigation of the mesophase behaviour was extended to cover the effect of introducing the lateral methyl group and its position. The comparison between the present six series and their corresponding phenyl analogues IIIna,b,c, indicated that the 2-naphthyl analogues, Ina,b,c, exhibit the highest mesophase stability. Whereas, the steric effect of the protruded naphthalene group destabilises all mesophases and appear only monotropically. The results were discussed in terms of polarisability effect.

description: High resolution X-ray spectroscopic studies on free SF6 molecules and SF6 clusters near the S 2p ionization thresholds are reported. Spectral changes occurring in clusters for the intense molecular-like S 2p 1/2,3/2 → 6a1g-, 2t2g-, and 4eg-resonances are examined in detail. Neither gas-to-cluster spectral shifts nor changes in peak shape are observed for the pre-edge 6a1g- band. Significant changes in band shape and distinct gas-to-cluster shifts occur in the S 2p 1/2,3/2 → 2t2g- and 4eg-transitions. These are found in the S 2p-ionization continua. The quasiatomic approach is used to assign the experimental results. It is shown that a convolution of asymmetric and symmetric contributions from Lorentzian and Gaussian line shapes allows us to model the spectral distribution of oscillator strength for the S 2p 1/2,3/2 → 2t2g-, and 4eg-transitions. The asymmetry is due to trapping of the photoelectron within the finite size potential barrier. The Lorentzian contribution is found to be dominating in the line shape of the S 2p → 2t2g- and 4eg-bands. The spectroscopic parameters of the spin-orbit components of both the 2t2g- and 4eg-bands are extracted and their gas-to-cluster changes are analyzed. The photoelectron trapping times in free and clustered SF6 molecules are determined. Specifically, it is shown that spectral changes in clusters reflected in core-to-valence-transitions are due to a superposition of the singly scattered photoelectron waves at the neighboring molecules with the primary and multiply scattered waves within the molecular cage.

description: We show that combined permanent and induced electric dipole interactions of linear polar and polarizable molecules with collinear electric fields lead to a sui generis topology of the corresponding Stark energy surfaces and of other observables – such as alignment and orientation cosines – in the plane spanned by the permanent and induced dipole interaction parameters. We find that the loci of the intersections of the surfaces can be traced analytically and that the eigenstates as well as the number of their intersections can be characterized by a single integer index. The value of the index, distinctive for a particular ratio of the interaction parameters, brings out a close kinship with the eigenproperties obtained previously for a class of Stark states via the apparatus of supersymmetric quantum mechanics.

description: Using quantum field-theoretic arguments, Witten has established a relation between the Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten invariants of smooth four-manifolds. In this survey article, we describe the program to prove this relation using a moduli space of PU(2) = SO(3) monopoles as a cobordism between the Donaldson moduli space of anti-self-dual SO(3) connections and moduli spaces of U(1) monopoles. We provide an overview of some of our transversality and Uhlenbeck compactness results for PU(2) monopoles, along with some of our calculations of Donaldson invariants in terms of Seiberg-Witten invariants. We give a brief outline of issues concerning the gluing theory, focussing on some of the analytical difficulties that are particular to PU(2) monopoles, and its application to the PU(2) monopole program to prove the relation between Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten invariants.

description: In the bibliography a certain confusion arises in what regards to the classification of the gravitational theories into scalar-tensor theories and general relativity with a scalar field either minimally or non-minimally coupled to matter. Higher-derivatives Horndeski and beyond Horndeski theories that at first sight do not look like scalar-tensor theories only add to the confusion. To further complicate things, the discussion on the physical equivalence of the different conformal frames in which a given scalar-tensor theory may be formulated, makes even harder to achieve a correct classification. In this paper we propose a specific criterion for an unambiguous identification of scalar-tensor theories and discuss its impact on the conformal transformations issue. The present discussion carries not only pedagogical but also scientific interest since an incorrect classification of a given theory as a scalar-tensor theory of gravity may lead to conceptual issues and to the consequent misunderstanding of its physical implications.

description: Novel chiral three-ring compounds with the –CH2O group close to chirality centre were synthesised and their properties were studied. The phase transitions and phase sequences were observed using a polarising optical microscope. The phase transition temperatures and enthalpies were checked by differential scanning calorimetry. A broad-frequency dielectric spectroscopy was also used to confirm the phase transition temperatures as well as the phase sequence. The helical pitch was measured by the spectrophotometry method. It was found that the compounds differing only in one lateral substituted fluorine atom create two different chiral tilted smectic phases, one a ferroelectric phase (SmC*) and the other an antiferroelectric phase (SmCA*).

description: We work in the reduced SU(N,K) modular category as constructed recently by Blanchet. We define spin type and cohomological refinements of the Turaev-Viro invariants of closed oriented 3-manifolds and give a formula relating them to Blanchet's invariants. Roberts' definition of the Turaev-Viro state sum is exploited. Furthermore, we construct refined Turaev-Viro and Reshetikhin-Turaev TQFT's and study the relationship between them.

description: Despite theoretical and methodological progress in what is now coined as the third generation of diffusion studies, explicitly dealing with the causal mechanisms underlying diffusion processes and comparatively analyzing them is only of recent date. As a matter of fact, diffusion research has ended up in a diverse and often unconnected array of theoretical assumptions relying both on rational as well as constructivist reasoning – a circumstance calling for more theoretical coherence and consistency. Against this backdrop, this paper reviews and streamlines diffusion literature in political science. Diffusion mechanisms largely cluster around two causal arguments determining the desires and preferences of actors for choosing alternative policies. First, existing diffusion mechanisms accounts can be grouped according to the rationality for policy adoption, this means that government behavior is based on the instrumental considerations of actors or on constructivist arguments like norms and rule-driven actors. Second, diffusion mechanisms can either directly impact on the beliefs of actors or they might influence the structural conditions for decision-making. Following this logic, four basic diffusion mechanisms can be identified in mechanism-based thinking on policy diffusion: emulation, socialization, learning, and externalities.

Distributional Semantics and Linguistic Theory

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Computation and Language (cs.CL)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Distributional semantics provides multi-dimensional, graded, empirically induced word representations that successfully capture many aspects of meaning in natural languages, as shown in a large body of work in computational linguistics; yet, its impact in theoretical linguistics has so far been limited. This review provides a critical discussion of the literature on distributional semantics, with an emphasis on methods and results that are of relevance for theoretical linguistics, in three areas: semantic change, polysemy and composition, and the grammar-semantics interface (specifically, the interface of semantics with syntax and with derivational morphology). The review aims at fostering greater cross-fertilization of theoretical and computational approaches to language, as a means to advance our collective knowledge of how it works.

Deconvolution With a Spatially-Variant PSF

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Application of deconvolution algorithms to astronomical images is often limited by variations in PSF structure over the domain of the images. One major difficulty is that Fourier methods can no longer be used for fast convolutions over the entire images. However, if the PSF is modeled as a sum of orthogonal functions that are individually constant in form over the images, but whose relative amplitudes encode the PSF spatial variability, then separation of variables again allows global image operations to be used. This approach is readily adapted to the Lucy-Richardson deconvolution algorithm. Use of the Karhunen-Loeve transform allows for a particularly compact orthogonal expansion of the PSF. These techniques are demonstrated on the deconvolution of Gemini/Hokupa'a adaptive optics images of the galactic center.

Perfect conversion of a TM surface-wave into a TM leaky-wave by an isotropic periodic metasurface printed on a grounded dielectric slab

description: This paper presents an exact solution for a perfect conversion of a TM-polarized surface wave (SW) into a TM-polarized leaky-wave (LW) using a reciprocal and lossless penetrable metasurface (MTS) characterized by a scalar sheet impedance, located on a grounded slab. In contrast to known realizations of leaky-wave antennas, the optimal surface reactance modulation which is found here ensures the absence of evanescent higher-order modes of the field Floquet-wave expansion near the radiating surface. Thus, all the energy carried by the surface wave is used for launching the single inhomogeneous plane wave into space without accumulation of reactive energy in the higher-order modes. It is shown that the resulting penetrable MTS exhibits variation from an inductive to a capacitive reactance passing through a resonance. The present formulation complements a previous paper of the authors in which a perfect conversion from TM-polarized SW to TE-polarized LW was found for impenetrable boundary conditions. Here, the solution takes into account the grounded slab dispersion and it is convenient for practical implementation.
