description: This paper deals with the comparison of planar parallel manipulator architectures based on a multi-objective design optimization approach. The manipulator architectures are compared with regard to their mass in motion and their regular workspace size, i.e., the objective functions. The optimization problem is subject to constraints on the manipulator dexterity and stiffness. For a given external wrench, the displacements of the moving platform have to be smaller than given values throughout the obtained maximum regular dexterous workspace. The contributions of the paper are highlighted with the study of 3-RPR, 3-RPR and 3-RPR planar parallel manipulator architectures, which are compared by means of their Pareto frontiers obtained with a genetic algorithm.

description: In this paper, we present an explicit substitution calculus which distinguishes between ordinary bound variables and meta-variables. Its typing discipline is derived from contextual modal type theory. We first present a dependently typed lambda calculus with explicit substitutions for ordinary variables and explicit meta-substitutions for meta-variables. We then present a weak head normalization procedure which performs both substitutions lazily and in a single pass thereby combining substitution walks for the two different classes of variables. Finally, we describe a bidirectional type checking algorithm which uses weak head normalization and prove soundness.

Analytical expressions for both quantum and classical correlations are obtained from the spin-spin correlation functions. We show that these pairwise quantities exhibit various behaviors in relation to the relative strengths of the DM interaction, the anisotropy and the magnetic intensity. We observe non-analyticities of the derivatives of both quantum and classical correlations with respect to the magnetic intensity at the critical point, with consideration of the DM interaction.

description: A provably correct bijection between higher-order abstract syntax (HOAS) and the natural numbers enables one to define a "not equals" relationship between terms and also to have an adequate encoding of sets of terms, and maps from one term family to another. Sets and maps are useful in many situations and are preferably provided in a library of some sort. I have released a map and set library for use with Twelf which can be used with any type for which a bijection to the natural numbers exists. Since creating such bijections is tedious and error-prone, I have created a "bijection generator" that generates such bijections automatically together with proofs of correctness, all in the context of Twelf.

description: We use the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) on the Hubble Space Telescope to determine the Hubble constant (H0) from optical and infrared observations of over 600 Cepheid variables in the host galaxies of 8 recent Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), providing the calibration for a mag-z relation of 253 SNe Ia. Increased precision over past measurements comes from: (1) more than doubling the number of infrared observations of Cepheids in nearby SN hosts; (2) increasing the sample of ideal SN Ia calibrators from six to eight; (3) increasing by 20% the number of Cepheids with infrared observations in the megamaser host NGC 4258; (4) reducing the difference in the mean metallicity of the Cepheid comparison samples from Δlog [O/H] = 0.08 to 0.05; and (5) calibrating all optical Cepheid colors with one camera, WFC3, to remove cross-instrument zero-point errors. Uncertainty in H0 from beyond the 1st rung of the distance ladder is reduced from 3.5% to 2.3%. The measurement of H0 via the geometric distance to NGC 4258 is 74.8 \pm 3.1 km s- 1 Mpc-1, a 4.1% measurement including systematics. Better precision independent of NGC 4258 comes from two alternative Cepheid absolute calibrations: (1) 13 Milky Way Cepheids with parallaxes and (2) 92 Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud with multiple eclipsing binary distances, yielding 74.4 \pm 2.5 km s- 1 Mpc-1, a 3.4% uncertainty with systematics. Our best estimate uses all three calibrations but a larger uncertainty afforded from any two: H0 = 73.8 \pm 2.4 km s- 1 Mpc-1 including systematics, a 3.3% uncertainty. The improvement in H0, combined with WMAP7yr data, results in a constraint on the EOS parameter of dark energy of w = -1.08 \pm 0.10 and Neff = 4.2 \pm 0.7 for the number of relativistic species in the early universe. It also rules out the best-fitting gigaparsec-scale void models, posited as an alternative to dark energy. (abridged)

description: [ABRIDGED] We have carried out a systematic search for close supermassive black hole binaries among z < 0.7 SDSS quasars Such binaries are predicted by models of supermassive black hole and host galaxy co-evolution, therefore their census and population properties constitute an important test of these models. We used an automatic technique based on spectroscopic principal component analysis to search for broad H-beta lines that are displaced from the rest-frame of the quasar by more than 1,000 km/s This method can also yield candidates for rapidly recoiling black holes. Our search yielded 88 candidates, several of which were previously identified and discussed in the literature. The widths of the broad H-beta lines are typical among quasars but the shifts are extreme. We found a correlation between the peak offset and skewness of the broad H-beta profiles, which suggests that the profiles we have selected share a common physical explanation. The general properties of the narrow emission lines are typical of quasars. We carried out followup spectroscopic observations of 68 objects to search for changes in the peak velocities of the H-beta lines (the time interval in the observer's frame between the original and new observations is 1-10 yr). We measured significant changes in 14 objects, with resulting accelerations between -120 and +120 km/s/yr. We emphasize that interpretation of the offset broad emission lines as signatures of supermassive binaries is subject to many significant caveats. Many more followup observations over a long temporal baseline are needed to characterize the variability pattern of the broad lines and test that this pattern is indeed consistent with orbital motion. The possibility that some of the objects in this sample are rapidly recoiling black holes remains open as the available data do not provide strong constraints for this scenario.

description: Using configuration-state-constrained electronic structure calculations based on the generalized gradient approximation plus Hubbard U method, we sought the origin of the giant tetragonal ferroelectric distortion in the ambient phase of the potentially multiferroic material BiCoO3 and identified the nature of the pressure induced spin-state transition. Our results show that a strong Bi-O covalency drives the giant ferroelectric distortion, which is further stabilized by an xy-type orbital ordering of the high-spin (HS) Co3+ ions. For the orthorhombic phase under 5.8 GPa, we find that a mixed HS and low-spin (LS) state is more stable than both LS and intermediate-spin (IS) states, and that the former well accounts for the available experimental results. Thus, we identify that the pressure induced spin-state transition is via a mixed HS+LS state, and we predict that the HS-to-LS transition would be complete upon a large volume decrease of about 20%.

description: Objectives: Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) patients experience clinical manifestations rather than recurrent respiratory infections including autoimmunity, enteropathy, and lymphoproliferation. We evaluated the correlation of lymphocyte subpopulations with such manifestations. Methods: Twenty-six genetically unsolved CVID patients were subdivided into four phenotypes: infection only (IO), autoimmunity (AI), chronic enteropathy (CE), and lymphoproliferative disorders (LP) and examined for lymphocyte subsets by flow cytometry and TCD4+ proliferation by Carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE) test. Results: We detected reduced memory B and increased total, effector memory (EM), cytotoxic, and activated TCD8+ in IO, AI and CE, decreased plasmablasts, total and naive TCD4+, Regulatory TCD4+ (Treg) and naive TCD8+ in IO and CE, elevated CD21low B and terminally differentiated effector memory (TEMRA) TCD8+ in IO and AI, increased helper T (Th2) and Th17 in IO, decreased Th1 in AI and defective total and naive B and central memory (CM) TCD4+ in CE. IO showed reduced TCD4+ proliferation response. Conclusions: In genetically unsolved CVID patients, increased Th2 and Th17 and reduced Treg is associated with IO, increased CD21low B and TEMRA TCD8+ and reduced Th1 is contributed to AI and reduced total and naive B, CM TCD4+ and naive TCD8+ and expanded total TCD8+ is correlated with CE.

description: We present an approach to type theory in which the typing judgments do not have explicit contexts. Instead of judgments of shape "Gamma |- A : B", our systems just have judgments of shape "A : B". A key feature is that we distinguish free and bound variables even in pseudo-terms. Specifically we give the rules of the "Pure Type System" class of type theories in this style. We prove that the typing judgments of these systems correspond in a natural way with those of Pure Type Systems as traditionally formulated. I.e., our systems have exactly the same well-typed terms as traditional presentations of type theory. Our system can be seen as a type theory in which all type judgments share an identical, infinite, typing context that has infinitely many variables for each possible type. For this reason we call our system "Gamma_infinity". This name means to suggest that our type judgment "A : B" should be read as "Gamma_infinity |- A : B", with a fixed infinite type context called "Gamma_infinity".

Skilled eating : knowledge of food in Yichu's Shishi liutie, a Buddhist encyclopedia from tenth-century China
Creators: name: Toleno, Robban Anthony John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: A common approach in studies of food and religion is to understand food taboos as emerging out of a symbolic system based on notions of the sacred. Religion is understood in this view to construct meaning on the basis of symbolism, which is grounded in sacred authority. In Chinese Buddhist discourse on eating contained in a tenth-century Buddhist encyclopedia, however, in place of food taboos one finds a doctrine of equanimity and moderation in eating. Using the Chinese Buddhist encyclopedia Shishi liutie as source, I argue that Chinese Buddhists framed the morality of eating not by sacral authority but by a notion of skill. This theoretical frame describes Buddhist ethics generally: kuśala (Ch. shan 善) is that which is skillful because it is wholesome, good, virtuous, or meritorious; and akuśala (Ch. bushan 不善) is that which is unskillful, because it is unwholesome or lacking in virtue. Viewing morality as a problem of skill helps explain the variation of interpretations on how to best eat as a Buddhist, which are found in different Buddhist writings. Buddhist teachings on food are provisional forms of knowledge rather than authoritative pronouncements. Most central to Buddhist attitudes on food in the Shishi liutie are proper knowledge and proper attitude––both of which allow individuals to skillfully obtain the benefits of eating while avoiding pitfalls such as gluttony and illness. By highlighting skill over sacral authority, I question the commonly held notion that religious knowledge is by definition fundamentally symbolic. In medieval China, Buddhist knowledge of eating was practical and provisional, evolving with society to meet contemporary needs.

description: The Lagrange-mesh method is a very accurate procedure to compute eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a two-body quantum equation. The method requires only the evaluation of the potential at some mesh points in the configuration space. It is shown that the eigenfunctions can be easily computed in the momentum space by a Fourier transform using the properties of the basis functions. Observables in this space can also be easily obtained.

description: The necessary decarbonization efforts in energy sectors entail the integration of flexibility assets, as well as increased levels of uncertainty for the planning and operation of power systems. To cope with this in a cost-effective manner, transmission expansion planning (TEP) models need to incorporate progressively more details to represent potential long-term system developments and the operation of power grids with intermittent renewable generation. However, the increased modeling complexities of TEP exercises can easily lead to computationally intractable optimization problems. Currently, most techniques that address computational intractability alter the original problem, thus neglecting critical modeling aspects or affecting the structure of the optimal solution. In this paper, we propose an alternative approach to significantly alleviate the computational burden of large-scale TEP problems. Our approach integrates machine learning (ML) with the well-established Benders decomposition to manage the problem size while preserving solution quality. The proposed ML-enhanced Multicut Benders Decomposition algorithm improves computational efficiency by identifying effective and ineffective optimality cuts via supervised learning techniques. We illustrate the benefits of the proposed methodology by solving a number of multi-stage TEP problems of different sizes, based on the IEEE24 and IEEE118 test systems, while also considering energy storage investment options.

description: The unique Honeycomb nebula, most likely a peculiar supernova remnant, lies in 30 Doradus in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Due to its proximity to SN1987A, it has been serendipitously and intentionally observed at many wavelengths. Here, an optical spectral analysis of forbidden line ratios is performed in order to compare the Honeycomb high-speed gas with supernova remnants in the Galaxy and the LMC, with galactic Wolf-Rayet nebulae and with the optical line emission from the interaction zone of the SS433 microquasar and W50 supernova remnant system. An empirical spatiokinematic model of the images and spectra for the Honeycomb reveals that its striking appearance is most likely due to a fortuitous viewing angle. The Honeycomb nebula is more extended in soft X-ray emission and could in fact be a small part of the edge of a giant LMC shell revealed for the first time in this short wavelength domain. It is also suggested that a previously unnoticed region of optical emission may in fact be an extension of the Honeycomb around the edge of this giant shell. A secondary supernova explosion in the edge of a giant shell is considered for the creation of the Honeycomb nebula. A microquasar origin of the Honeycomb nebula as opposed to a simple supernova origin is also evaluated.

description: Recently, higher-order topological phases have endowed materials many exotic topological phases. For three-dimensional (3D) higher-order topologies, it hosts topologically protected 1D hinge states or 0D corner states, which extend the bulk-boundary correspondence of 3D topological phases. Meanwhile, the enrichment of group symmetries with exploration of projective symmetry algebras redefined the fundamentals of nontrivial topological matter with artificial gauge fields, leading to the discovery of new topological phases in classical wave systems. In this Letter, we construct an acoustic topological semimetal characterized by both the first and the second Stiefel-Whitney (SW) topological charges by utilizing the projective symmetry. Different from conventional high-order topologies with multiple bulk-boundary correspondences protected by different class topological invariants, acoustic high-order Stiefel-Whitney semimetal (HOSWS) has two different bulk-edge correspondences protected by only one class (SW class) topological invariant. Two types of topological hinge and surface states are embedded in bulk bands at the same frequency, featuring similar characteristics of bound states in the continuum (BICs). In experiments, we demonstrate the existence of high-quality surface state and hinge state at the interested frequency window with polarized intensity field distributions.

description: Cancer remains a formidable global health challenge, claiming millions of lives annually, particularly in its advanced or metastatic stages. Organs frequently affected by this devastating disease include the breast, lungs, colorectal, and prostate, contributing significantly to the staggering mortality rates observed worldwide. While various treatment modalities such as cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, hormone therapy, radiotherapy, and targeted therapies offer promise in managing cancer, their widespread accessibility remains hindered by prohibitive costs, particularly in resource-limited settings.  Prescription of anticancer drugs represents a critical aspect of cancer management, serving as the initial step in patient treatment. This medicolegal act demands strict adherence to guidelines encompassing readability, precision, and completeness. Compliance with prescription protocols is paramount for optimizing patient outcomes, given the narrow therapeutic margin and inherent toxicity associated with anticancer medications. Errors in prescription can swiftly lead to adverse events, resulting in prolonged hospitalization, increased utilization of pharmaceutical products, laboratory tests, or even necessitating surgical interventions.

This abstract underscores the multifaceted challenges associated with cancer treatment, emphasizing the pivotal role of prescription accuracy in mitigating adverse outcomes and optimizing patient care. By highlighting the critical importance of adherence to prescription guidelines, it underscores the need for healthcare professionals to prioritize precision and thoroughness in prescribing anticancer medications. Moreover, it underscores the imperative for policymakers and healthcare stakeholders to address the systemic barriers hindering access to essential cancer treatments, particularly in resource-limited contexts.

description: Micro-vascular flow in the myocardium is of significant importance clinically but remains poorly understood. Up to 25% of patients with symptoms of coronary heart diseases have no obstructive coronary arteries and have suspected microvascular diseases. However, such microvasculature is difficult to image in vivo with existing modalities due to the lack of resolution and sensitivity. Here, we demonstrate the feasibility of transthoracic super-resolution ultrasound localisation microscopy (SRUS/ULM) of myocardial microvasculature and hemodynamics in a large animal model and in patients, using a cardiac phased array probe with a customised data acquisition and processing pipeline. A multi-level motion correction strategy was proposed. A tracking framework incorporating multiple features and automatic parameter initialisations was developed to reconstruct microcirculation. In two patients with impaired myocardial function, we have generated SRUS images of myocardial vascular structure and flow with a resolution that is beyond the wave-diffraction limit (half a wavelength), using data acquired within a breath hold. Myocardial SRUS/ULM has potential to improve the understanding of myocardial microcirculation and the management of patients with cardiac microvascular diseases.

description: ML5 is a programming language for spatially distributed computing, based on a Curry-Howard correspondence with the modal logic S5. Despite being designed by a correspondence with S5 modal logic, the ML5 programming language differs from the logic in several ways. In this paper, we explain these discrepancies between ML5 and S5 by translating ML5 into a slightly different logic: intuitionistic S5 extended with a lax modality that encapsulates effectful computations in a monad. This translation both explains the existing ML5 design and suggests some simplifications and generalizations. We have formalized our translation within the Agda proof assistant. Rather than formalizing lax S5 as a proof theory, we \emph{embed} it as a universe within the the dependently typed host language, with the universe elimination given by implementing the modal logic's Kripke semantics. This representation technique saves us the work of defining a proof theory for the logic and proving it correct, and additionally allows us to inherit the equational theory of the meta-language, which can be exploited in proving that the semantics validates the operational semantics of ML5.

description: Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that provides unique information about the biochemical composition of the human body. By excluding the overwhelming signals from water and fat, clinically relevant biomarkers such as lactate, N-acetyl aspartate, choline, creatine, glutamate/glutamine (Glx), gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), glutathione, and myoinositol can be reliably quantified. MRS has diverse applications in investigating the metabolic window of a wide range of biochemical processes. Here, we have utilized MRS to better understand chemical changes associated with neurological disorders and treatment response. We have investigated neurometabolic imbalances in brain regions related to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). MRS was applied to better understand the neurobiological processes of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in military veterans with clinically diagnosed traumatic brain injury and/or PTSD.

description: We investigate the effect of ferroelectric polarization direction on the geometric properties of Pd deposited on the positive and negative surfaces of LiNbO$_3$ (0001). We predict preferred geometries and diffusion properties of small Pd clusters using density functional theory, and use these calculations as the basis for kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of Pd deposition on a larger scale. Our results show that on the positive surface, Pd atoms favor a clustered configuration, while on the negative surface, Pd atoms are adsorbed in a more dispersed pattern due to suppression of diffusion and agglomeration. This suggests that the effect of LiNbO$_3$ polarization direction on the catalytic activity of Pd [J. Phys. Chem. \textbf{88}, 1148 (1984)] is due, at least in part, to differences in adsorption geometry. Further investigations using these methods can aid the search for catalysts whose activities switch reversibly with the polarization of their ferroelectric substrates.

description: Neutron star crustal matter, whose properties are relevant in many models aimed at explaining observed astrophysical phenomena, has so far always been studied using a mean field approach. In order to check the results obtained in this way, a sensible next step is to make use of a realistic nuclear potential. The present paper extends the periodic-box Fermi HyperNetted Chain method to include longitudinal-isospin dependence of the correlations, making feasible a study of asymmetric crustal matter. Results are presented for the symmetry energy, the low-density neutron star equation of state and the single particle neutron and proton energies.

description: Ignition timing and control, as well as predictability of engine emissions, are critical factors in advanced-engine system design. The use of detailed chemical kinetics is key to simulating ignition performance and to predicting emissions. This paper describes a collaborative and systematic effort that is underway to enable computationally efficient use of accurate kinetics in engine simulation. The collaboration is focused on building a database of chemical information and on developing a complementary set of software tools that provide efficient engine-simulation capabilities. The goal is predictive simulations that capture the detailed behavior of complex fuels, such as gasoline and diesel, under homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) and related operating conditions. Since directly accounting for all of the hundreds of constituent molecules in a fuel during simulation of real-fuel combustion is intractable, we employ a “model-fuel” or surrogate-fuel approach instead. Mixtures of model-fuel molecules can be determined to adequately represent important real-fuel properties and engine-combustion characteristics. In this work, model fuel compositions are determined by matching a mixture behavior to that of the real fuel, focusing on distillation-curve characteristics, net-heating value, hydrogen-to-carbon ratio, and octane/cetane numbers. This surrogate-definition process requires detailed chemical-kinetics mechanisms for a variety of model-fuel compounds. To build such a database of model-fuel component mechanisms, we have used a combination of automatic mechanism-generation and manual mechanism-development approaches. These methods adhere to a systematic set of class-based rules in determining elementary reaction rates, as well as thermodynamic and transport properties of species. In addition, a comprehensive validation study of the mechanisms, using a wide variety of both fundamental and engine experiments, has allowed refinement of these rules and improvement of both the mechanisms’ predictions and their consistency across components. Even though model fuels have a small number of components, their detailed mechanisms contain large numbers of species (>1000) and reactions (>10000). Systematic mechanism reduction is therefore required for many engineering applications. To this end, we have also developed a package of automated mechanism-reduction techniques. In addition, we have advanced the solution algorithms used in the kinetics simulations and developed a multi-zone engine model that provides good predictions of ignition behavior and emissions. We report on selected results of this systematic approach to using detailed kinetics in engineering simulation, as well as the challenges encountered.

The targum (1975:Mar. 03 - 1975:Mar. 31)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1975

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.
Representing Isabelle in LF

Year: 2010

description: LF has been designed and successfully used as a meta-logical framework to represent and reason about object logics. Here we design a representation of the Isabelle logical framework in LF using the recently introduced module system for LF. The major novelty of our approach is that we can naturally represent the advanced Isabelle features of type classes and locales. Our representation of type classes relies on a feature so far lacking in the LF module system: morphism variables and abstraction over them. While conservative over the present system in terms of expressivity, this feature is needed for a representation of type classes that preserves the modular structure. Therefore, we also design the necessary extension of the LF module system.

description: We apply recently developed path integral resummation methods to perturbative quantum gravity. In particular, we provide supporting evidence that eikonal graviton amplitudes factorize into hard and soft parts, and confirm a recent hypothesis that soft gravitons are modelled by vacuum expectation values of products of certain Wilson line operators, which differ for massless and massive particles. We also investigate terms which break this factorization, and find that they are subleading with respect to the eikonal amplitude. The results may help in understanding the connections between gravity and gauge theories in more detail, as well as in studying gravitational radiation beyond the eikonal approximation.
