description: I briefly discuss three phenomena arising in recent work where the realization of symmetries in quantum mechanics is unusual. The first of these is, I believe, the very simplest realization of non-trivial confinement by a mechanism of charge-flux frustration. It arises in models having several coupled abelian Chern-Simons gauge symmetries, which closely resemble effective theories used for the quantum Hall effect. The second is symmetry obstruction by non-abelian flux, which has implications for 2+1 dimensional supergravity. Third is the possibility of new varieties of quantum statistics: non-abelian and projective.

description: Editor Introduction: Today software engineering is characterized by two strong trends: agile and distributed. Both together are increasingly demanded and challenge teams and projects due to lack of discipline, insufficient transparency, agile "ping pong" and thus overheads and rework. Authors Fabio Calefato and I describe current technologies and tools for agile collaboration.

description: We study the problem of adversarial combinatorial bandit with a switching cost $λ$ for a switch of each selected arm in each round, considering both the bandit feedback and semi-bandit feedback settings. In the oblivious adversarial case with $K$ base arms and time horizon $T$, we derive lower bounds for the minimax regret and design algorithms to approach them. To prove these lower bounds, we design stochastic loss sequences for both feedback settings, building on an idea from previous work in Dekel et al. (2014). The lower bound for bandit feedback is $ \tildeΩ\big( (λK)^{\frac{1}{3}} (TI)^{\frac{2}{3}}\big)$ while that for semi-bandit feedback is $ \tildeΩ\big( (λK I)^{\frac{1}{3}} T^{\frac{2}{3}}\big)$ where $I$ is the number of base arms in the combinatorial arm played in each round. To approach these lower bounds, we design algorithms that operate in batches by dividing the time horizon into batches to restrict the number of switches between actions. For the bandit feedback setting, where only the total loss of the combinatorial arm is observed, we introduce the Batched-Exp2 algorithm which achieves a regret upper bound of $\tilde{O}\big((λK)^{\frac{1}{3}}T^{\frac{2}{3}}I^{\frac{4}{3}}\big)$ as $T$ tends to infinity. In the semi-bandit feedback setting, where all losses for the combinatorial arm are observed, we propose the Batched-BROAD algorithm which achieves a regret upper bound of $\tilde{O}\big( (λK)^{\frac{1}{3}} (TI)^{\frac{2}{3}}\big)$.

description: Active galactic nuclei (AGN) accreting at rates close to the Eddington limit can host radiatively driven mildly relativistic outflows. Some of these X-ray absorbing but powerful outflows may produce strong shocks resulting in a significant non-thermal emission. This outflow-driven radio emission may be detectable in the radio-quiet quasar PDS 456 since it has a bolometric luminosity reaching the Eddington limit and a relativistic wide-aperture X-ray outflow with a kinetic power high enough to quench the star formation in its host galaxy. To investigate this possibility, we performed very-long-baseline interferometric (VLBI) observations of the quasar with the European VLBI Network (EVN) at 5 GHz. The EVN image with the full resolution reveals two faint and diffuse radio components with a projected separation of about 20 pc and an average brightness temperature of around two million Kelvin. In relation to the optical sub-mas-accuracy position measured by the Gaia mission, the two components are very likely on opposite sides of an undetected radio core. The VLBI structure at the deca-pc scale can thus be either a young jet or a bidirectional radio-emitting outflow, launched in the vicinity of a strongly accreting central engine. Two diffuse components at the hecto-pc scale, likely the relic radio emission from the past AGN activity, are tentatively detected on each side in the low-resolution EVN image.

Enhancing Robot Navigation Efficiency Using Cellular Automata with Active Cells

description: Enhancing robot navigation efficiency is a crucial objective in modern robotics. Robots relying on external navigation systems are often susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and encounter environmental disturbances, resulting in orientation errors within their surroundings. Therefore, the study employed an internal navigation system to enhance robot navigation efficacy under interference conditions, based on the analysis of the internal parameters and the external signals. This article presents details of the robot's autonomous operation, which allows for setting the robot's trajectory using an embedded map. The robot's navigation process involves counting the number of wheel revolutions as well as adjusting wheel orientation after each straight path section. In this article, an autonomous robot navigation system has been presented that leverages an embedded control navigation map utilising cellular automata with active cells which can effectively navigate in an environment containing various types of obstacles. By analysing the neighbouring cells of the active cell, the cellular environment determines which cell should become active during the robot's next movement step. This approach ensures the robot's independence from external control inputs. Furthermore, the accuracy and speed of the robot's movement have been further enhanced using a hexagonal mosaic for navigation surface mapping. This concept of utilising on cellular automata with active cells has been extended to the navigation of a group of robots on a shared navigation surface, taking into account the intersections of the robots' trajectories over time. To achieve this, a distance control module has been used that records the travelled trajectories in terms of wheel turns and revolutions.
Quasi-local evolution of cosmic gravitational clustering in the weakly non-linear regime

description: We investigate the weakly non-linear evolution of cosmic gravitational clustering in phase space by looking at the Zel'dovich solution in the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) representation. We show that if the initial perturbations are Gaussian, the relation between the evolved DWT mode and the initial perturbations in the weakly non-linear regime is quasi-local. That is, the evolved density perturbations are mainly determined by the initial perturbations localized in the same spatial range. Furthermore, we show that the evolved mode is monotonically related to the initial perturbed mode. Thus large (small) perturbed modes statistically correspond to the large (small) initial perturbed modes. We test this prediction by using QSO Ly$α$ absorption samples. The results show that the weakly non-linear features for both the transmitted flux and identified forest lines are quasi-localized. The locality and monotonic properties provide a solid basis for a DWT scale-by-scale Gaussianization reconstruction algorithm proposed by Feng & Fang (Feng & Fang, 2000) for data in the weakly non-linear regime. With the Zel'dovich solution, we find also that the major non-Gaussianity caused by the weakly non-linear evolution is local scale-scale correlations. Therefore, to have a precise recovery of the initial Gaussian mass field, it is essential to remove the scale-scale correlations.

description: The recent attention towards research and development in cyber-physical energy systems has introduced the necessity of emerging multi-domain co-simulation tools. Different educational, research and industrial efforts have been set to tackle the co-simulation topic from several perspectives. The majority of previous works has addressed the standardization of models and interfaces for data exchange, automation of simulation, as well as improving performance and accuracy of co-simulation setups. Furthermore, the domains of interest so far have involved communication, control, markets and the environment in addition to physical energy systems. However, the current characteristics and state of co-simulation testbeds need to be re-evaluated for future research demands. These demands vary from new domains of interest, such as human and social behavior models, to new applications of co-simulation, such as holistic prognosis and system planning. This paper aims to formulate these research demands that can then be used as a road map and guideline for future development of co-simulation in cyber-physical energy systems.

description: Starting from a modified version of the the S=1/2 Kagome antiferromagnet to emphasize the role of elementary triangles, an effective Hamiltonian involving spin and chirality variables is derived. A mean-field decoupling that retains the quantum nature of these variables is shown to yield a Hamiltonian that can be solved exactly, leading to the following predictions: i) The number of low lying singlet states increase with the number of sites N like 1.15 to the power N; ii) A singlet-triplet gap remains in the thermodynamic limit; iii) Spinons form boundstates with a small binding energy. By comparing these properties with those of the regular Kagome lattice as revealed by numerical experiments, we argue that this description captures the essential low energy physics of that model.

In a previous paper (Viggiani & Filella 2019), the eggs of M. dentipes were hypothesized to be the host of B. andalusica. The observations carried out in 2020 demonstrate that B. andalusica is a solitary egg endoparasitoid of M. dentipes. In May 2020 adults emerged from overwintering egg clusters of the chrysomelid host, they oviposited in fresh host eggs and a new adult emergence occurred in June, when 90 specimens of B. andalusica were reared. The trichogrammatid shows the same phenology of the eulophid A. macrolenei described above.

description: A three-body scattering theory previously proposed by one of the present authors is developed to be applied to the saturated ferromagnetic state in the two-dimensional Hubbard model. The single-particle Green's function is calculated by taking account of the multiple scattering between two electrons and one hole. Several limiting cases are discussed and the relation to the variational principle is examined. The importance of the three-body correlation is demonstrated in comparison with the results of the ladder approximation. A possible phase boundary for the Nagaoka ground state is presented for the square lattice, which improves the previous variational results.

description: This study compares thirteen natural and industrial samples of supplementary or emerging supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs): slag, fly ashes, pozzolan, obsidian, silica fume, and recycled glass. These materials are used or are under consideration for decarbonization in cement plants. XRF, XRD and Raman microspectroscopy were used in order to achieve a deeper understanding of the structural characterization of SCMs. The changes in position and shape of the XRD diffuse halos were compared. Raman spectroscopy was used to study the glass part of the SCM families, to better understand their structure in terms of depolymerization degree, angle, ring size and incorporations into the glass.The chemical composition of each glassy part was also estimated using reverse Bogue calculations. The hump position is correlated with the Raman shift, and with the XRF bulk or with the calculated glass chemical composition of SCMs, in terms of CaO/(SiO2+Al2O3) or network modifiers to formers ratios.

description: We study the evolution and observability of young, compact star clusters near the Galactic center, such as the Arches and Quintuplet systems. The clusters are modeled by integrating the equations of motion of all stars while accounting for the internal evolution of stars and binaries, as well as the effect of the Galactic tidal field. We find that clusters within 150 pc of the Galactic center dissolve within ~55 Myr, but their projected densities drop below the background density in the direction of the Galactic center within only a few Myr, effectively making these clusters undetectable after that time. Detailed observations of the Arches cluster, taken at face value, suggest that its mass function is unusually flat and that the cluster contains an overabundance of stars more massive than 20 Msun. Our dynamical analysis, however, shows that the observed characteristics of the Arches cluster are consistent with a perfectly normal initial mass function. The observed anomalies are then caused by a combination of observational selection effects and the dynamical evolution of the cluster. We calibrate the current parameters of the Arches cluster using a normal initial mass function and conclude that the cluster is more massive than 40000 Msun, has a half mass radius of about 0.35 pc and is located between 50 and 90 pc from the Galactic center.

description: Whether the surface states in SmB6 are topological is still a critical issue in the field of topological Kondo insulators. In the magneto-transport study of single crystalline SmB6 microribbons, we have revealed a positive planar Hall effect (PHE), the amplitude of which increases dramatically with decreasing temperatures but saturates below 5 K. This positive PHE is ascribed to the surface states of SmB6 and expected to arise from the anisotropy in lifting the topological protection from back-scattering by the in-plane magnetic field, thus suggesting the topological nature of surface states in SmB6. On the contrary, a negative PHE is observed for the bulk states at high temperatures, which is almost three orders of magnitudes weaker than the surface-induced positive PHE.

description: We present near-infrared and optical imaging of fifteen candidate black hole X-ray binaries. In addition to quiescent observations for all sources, we also observed two of these sources (IGR J17451-3022 and XTE J1818-245) in outburst. We detect the quiescent counterpart for twelve out of fifteen sources, and for the remaining three we report limiting magnitudes. The magnitudes of the detected counterparts range between $K_s$ = 17.59 and $K_s$ = 22.29 mag. We provide (limits on) the absolute magnitudes and finding charts of all sources. Of these twelve detections in quiescence, seven represent the first quiescent reported values (for MAXI J1543-564, XTE J1726-476, IGR J17451-3022, XTE J1818-245, MAXI J1828-249, MAXI J1836-194, Swift J1910.2-0546) and two detections show fainter counterparts to XTE J1752-223 and XTE J2012+381 than previously reported. We used theoretical arguments and observed trends, for instance between the outburst and quiescent X-ray luminosity and orbital period $P_{orb}$ to derive an expected trend between $ΔK_s$ and $P_{orb}$ of $ΔK_s \propto \log P_{orb}^{0.565}$. Comparing this to observations we find a different behaviour. We discuss possible explanations for this result.

description: Wide quantum dots were fabricated from multiple quantum well structures based on Zn_{1-x}Mn_xTe/ZnTe (x = 0.076) dilute magnetic semiconductors and were investigated via photoluminescence (PL) in a magnetic field. Calculations taking into account the strain in the two types of structure enabled the PL transitions to be identified and show that the dominant emission in the MQWs is from heavy-hole (hh) excitons whereas in the quantum dots, the removal of the strain in the barrier layers generates a large biaxial tensile strain in the quantum wells which shifts the light-hole (lh) exciton to lower energy than the hh exciton. The lh exciton sigma^+ transition is virtually independent of magnetic field whilst the hh exciton is field-dependent. Thus, at fields of 1 to 2 Tesla, the hh exciton sigma^+ transition again becomes the lowest energy transition of the quantum dots. These observations are described by a model with a chemical valence band offset of 30% for Zn_{1-x}Mn_xTe/ZnTe.

description: We conducted a nationwide survey to describe the in-and out-of-hospital flow (diagnosis, treatment and follow-up) of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). A survey was developed with five dedicated HF cardiologists. The data are all self-reported by cardiologists. The response rate was 84%. Presence of a dedicated HF cardiologist or HF nurse was indicated by 49% and 46% of the hospitals respectively. Devices (p < .05), angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitors, and rehabilitation are considered more standard of care therapy by dedicated compared to non-dedicated HF cardiologists. Most cardiologists indicated that target dosages of HF drugs can be reached in 25‒75% of patients. Achieving >75% of the target dose seems easier for angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEI/ARB) (22%) and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (25%), compared to β-blockers (10%) and angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitors (7%). 62%, 49% and 4% of the cardiologists indicated to use subtypes of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers and β-blockers respectively not validated in the HF population. In the acute setting, dedicated HF cardiologists (23%) are less influenced by blood parameters for decongestion compared to non-dedicated HF cardiologists (39%). They tend to change patients more to guideline-recommended drugs (60% vs 47%). Six minutes walk test and ergospirometry are significantly more used by dedicated compared to non-dedicated HF cardiologists for HF drug change (17% and 29% vs 2% and 4%). This survey showed that a minority of hospitals have HF care. Those that do, report a higher implementation of guideline-recommended diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of HF patients. Competent authorities could use this survey as a tool to improve HF care.

Calculation of the electromagnetic scattering by non-spherical particles based on the volume integral equation in the spherical wave function basis

description: The paper presents a method for calculation of non-spherical particle T-matrices based on the volume integral equation and the spherical vector wave function basis, and relies on the Generalized Source Method rationale. The developed method appears to be close to the invariant imbedding approach, and the derivations aims at intuitive demonstration of the calculation scheme. In parallel calculation of single columns of T-matrix is considered in detail, and it is shown that this way not only has a promising potential of parallelization but also yields an almost zero power balance for purely dielectric particles.

description: Hyperkalaemia is a potentially life-threatening condition. Furthermore, it is one of the main reasons for discontinuation and dose reduction of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASi) in clinical practice. However, exact data on the prevalence and consequences of occurrence of hyperkalaemia when taking RAASi in a dedicated heart failure care setting are scarce. Consecutive patients diagnosed with heart failure from a single tertiary hospital between August 2000 and May 2017 were retrospectively evaluated. Primary endpoint was the development of hyperkalaemia (≥5.5 mmol/L) at any moment during follow-up. About 396 patients were included in the current analysis (mean follow-up 6.9 years). 26% (n = 104) and 12% (n = 46) of patients developed hyperkalaemia (≥5.5 mmol/L and ≥6.0 mmol/L, respectively). Diabetes mellitus (OR = 1.80, 95% CI = 1.03–3.19) and baseline creatinine (mg/dL) (OR = 2.37, 95% CI = 2.37–3.85) were independent risk factors for hyperkalaemia. Development of hyperkalaemia was associated with 6.5 higher odds for recurrence. Only 10% developed hyperkalaemia during up-titration of RAASi, while 90% developed during later follow-up on stable doses of RAASi. hyperkalaemia was not associated with worse outcome after multivariate adjustment for baseline co-morbidities. However, hyperkalaemia was associated with discontinuation and lower doses of MRAs during follow-up (p = 0.007). Discontinuation of MRA due to hyperkalaemia was associated with an increase in all-cause mortality in HFrEF patients (HR = 1.77, 95% CI = 1.05–2.99). Approximately, one-fourth of patients developed hyperkalaemia during follow-up which was associated with a lower MRA dose during follow-up. Discontinuation of MRA, but not hyperkalaemia itself, was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality and heart failure admission in HFrEF patients.

description: We have investigated the possibility of having a late time accelerated expansion phase for the universe. We have used a dissipative fluid in Brans-Dicke(BD) theory for this purpose. The model does not involve any potential for the BD scalar field. We have obtained the best fit values for the different parameters in our model by comparing our model predictions with SNIa data and the also with the data from the ultra-compact radio sources.

Equivalence of physical and SRB measures in random dynamical systems

description: We give a geometric proof, offering a new and quite different perspective on an earlier result of Ledrappier and Young on random transformations. We show that under mild conditions, sample measures of random diffeomorphisms are SRB measures. As sample measures are the limits of forward images of stationary measures, they can be thought of as the analog of physical measures for deterministic systems. Our results thus show the equivalence of physical and SRB measures in the random setting, a hoped-for scenario that is not always true for deterministic maps.

Surface Photometric Calibration of the Infrared Tully-Fisher Relation Using Cepheid-based Distances of Galaxies

description: Infrared J and H surface photometry are carried out for nearby 12 galaxies whose distances have been accurately measured via HST Cepheid observations. Using the total, isophotal, and surface-photometric aperture magnitudes we calibrate the infrared luminosity-line width relation (IRTF). It is found that IRTF changes its slope at log W_{20}^c=2.45 in all the examined magnitude systems. The apparent scatter of IRTF is not significantly reduced when surface photometric magnitudes are used instead of the conventionally used synthetic aperture magnitude H_{-0.5}. It is also shown that the color (I-H)_T of the nearby calibrator galaxies is redder by 0.2mag than the Coma cluster galaxies, but such a trend is not clearly visible for the Ursa Major mostly because of poor statistics. The color offset of the Coma is analogous to that previously found in I_T-H_{-0.5}. From the present calibration of H-band IRTF, we obtain the distance to the Coma cluster to be m-M=34.94 +/- 0.13mag, where no account is taken of the I-H color problem. Using the CMB-rest recession velocity of the Coma cluster we obtain H_0=73 +/- 4 km/s/Mpc.

Analytical results for random walks in the presence of disorder and traps

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

description: In this paper, we study the dynamics of a random walker diffusing on a disordered one-dimensional lattice with random trappings. The distribution of escape probabilities is computed exactly for any strength of the disorder. These probabilities do not display any multifractal properties contrary to previous numerical claims. The explanation for this apparent multifractal behavior is given, and our conclusion are supported by numerical calculations. These exact results are exploited to compute the large time asymptotics of the survival probability (or the density) which is found to decay as $\exp [-Ct^{1/3}\log^{2/3}(t)]$. An exact lower bound for the density is found to decay in a similar way.

description: Solar proton events (SPEs) cause large-scale ionization in the middle atmosphere leading to ozone loss and changes in the energy budget of the middle atmosphere. The accurate implementation of SPEs and other particle ionization sources in climate models is necessary to understand the role of energetic particle precipitation (EPP) in climate variability. We use riometer observations from 16 riometer stations and the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model with added D region ion chemistry (WACCM-D) to study the spatial and temporal extent of cosmic noise absorption (CNA) during 62 solar proton events from 2000 to 2005. We also present a correction method for the non-linear response of observed CNA during intense absorption events. We find that WACCM-D can reproduce the observed CNA well with some need for future improvement and testing of the used EPP forcing. The average absolute difference between the model and the observations is found to be less than 0.5 dB poleward of about $66^\circ$ geomagnetic latitude, and increasing with decreasing latitude to about 1 dB equatorward of about $66^\circ$ geomagnetic latitude. The differences are largest during twilight conditions where the modeled changes in CNA are more abrupt compared to observations. An overestimation of about $1^\circ$ to $3^\circ$ geomagnetic latitude in the extent of the CNA is observed due to the fixed proton cutoff latitude in the model. An unexplained underestimation of CNA by the model during sunlit conditions is observed at stations within the polar cap during 18 of the studied events.

description: We derive the the Barrett-Crane spin foam model for Euclidean 4 dimensional quantum gravity from a discretized BF theory, imposing the constraints that reduce it to gravity at the quantum level. We obtain in this way a precise prescription of the form of the Barrett-Crane state sum, in the general case of an arbitrary manifold with boundary. In particular we derive the amplitude for the edges of the spin foam from a natural procedure of gluing different 4-simplices along a common tetrahedron. The generalization of our results to higher dimensions is also shown.

Teachers' Beliefs About Teaching Reading to English as a Foreign Language (EFL) Students in Saudi Higher Education

Teaching of English as a foreign language

description: This study explores teachers’ beliefs about teaching reading and reading instructional practices. The study seeks to answer the questions such as what the English language teachers believe about teaching reading in English to the Saudi EFL learners and how they form/develop their beliefs in this particular context. The study also tries to find out why teachers hold particular sets of beliefs about teaching reading in English and what reading instructional practices do teachers of apparently different beliefs use with Saudi EFL learners. The main objective of the study is mainly achieved by conducting a survey questionnaire with 75 and audio-recording active interviews with five practising English language teachers who are currently working in Saudi higher education. Thus the study is a combination of both the qualitative and the quantitative research methodologies. The findings of the study show that the teachers’ beliefs are not stagnant, rather they are flexible and are guided by what works well and less well for their learners. A clear consensus is also seen about the significance of teachers’ beliefs in teaching reading and teachers have no doubt about the importance of reading in the learners’ overall English language learning. Though there is a general belief of the teachers that their role should be of a facilitator, practically a teacher has to perform a very active role and lead the reading activities in a reading class. This research study not only brings some useful data to the higher education institutes in Saudi Arabia to help them figure out teachers’ beliefs on various aspects of teaching reading but also presents some recommendations on how to improve teaching of reading in the context of Saudi Arabia. The findings of the study can be useful to the English language teachers and researchers in identifying the beliefs of one of the key elements of the educational system.
