description: Die vorliegende Studie, die im Rahmen des Forschungsprojekts ArdiAS stattfand, untersuchte mit Hilfe des Fahrenberg´schen Mehrebenenkonzepts autonome Beanspruchungsreaktionen des Körpers bei verschiedenen kognitiven Belastungen. Ziel der Arbeit war die Bestimmung physiologischer Beanspruchungskorrelate aus dem EEG und EKG unter der Berücksichtigung der objektiven Testleistung bei kognitiven Aufgaben und des subjektiven Beanspruchungsempfindens, das mittels BORG-Skala abgefragt wurde. Während die 22 Probanden (10 Männer und 12 Frauen) im Durchschnittsalter von 25,1 ± 4,66 Jahren eine psychometrische Testbatterie mit randomisierter Testreihenfolge absolvierten, erfolgte die EEG- und EKG-Aufzeichnung mit einschließender Analyse der Herzfrequenzvariabilität (HRV). Bei den paarweisen Vergleichen der EEG- und HRV-Parametern wurden zahlreiche signifikante Beanspruchungsreaktionen zwischen den Tests und der Ruhephase festgestellt. Korrelate zwischen EEG- und HRV-Parametern erlaubten Rückschlüsse von den Beanspruchungsparametern auf die kognitive Belastung. Auch zwischen den Leistungsdaten der psychometrischen Tests und den objektiven Beanspruchungsparametern konnten Korrelationen gefunden werden. Das subjektive Beanspruchungsempfinden der stattgefundenen kognitiven Belastung deckte sich nur teilweise mit den objektiven Beanspruchungsparametern. Insgesamt scheinen die autonomen Beanspruchungsreaktionen abhängig von der Art und dem Grad der kognitiven Anforderung zu sein.

description: The constraints on the $Λ$CDM model from type Ia supernova (SNe Ia) data alone and BAO data alone are similar, so it is worthwhile to compare their constraints on the property of dark energy. We apply the SNLS3 compilation of 472 SNe Ia data, the baryon acoustic oscillation measurement of distance, the cosmic microwave background radiation data from the WMAP7, and the Hubble parameter data to study the effect of their different combinations on the fittings of cosmological parameters in the modified holographic dark energy model and the Chevallier-Polarski-Linder model. Neither BAO nor WMAP7 data alone give good constraint on the equation of state parameter of dark energy, but both WMAP7 data and BAO data help SNe Ia data break the degeneracies among the model parameters, hence tighten the constraint on the variation of equation of state parameter $w_a$, and WMAP7 data do the job a little better. Although BAO and WMAP7 data provide reasonably good constraints on $Ω_m$ and $Ω_k$, they are not able to constrain the dynamics of dark energy. On the other hand, SNe Ia data do not provide good constraints on $Ω_m$ and $Ω_k$, but they provide good constraint on the dynamics of dark energy, especially the variation of the equation of state parameter of dark energy, so we need to combine SNe Ia with BAO and WMAP7 data to probe the property of dark energy. The addition of $H(z)$ data helps better constrain the geometry of the Universe $Ω_k$ and the property of dark energy. For the SNLS SNe Ia data, the nuisance parameters $α$ and $β$ are consistent for all different combinations of the above data, and their impacts on the fittings of cosmological parameters are minimal. By fitting the data to different models, $Λ$CDM model is still consistent with all the observational data.

description: Patienten mit chronisch-entzündlichen Darmerkrankungen (CED) geben Fatigue als häufiges und sehr belastendes Symptom an. Obwohl Fatigue mit einer geringeren Lebensqualität einhergeht und hohe indirekte Kosten verursacht, gibt es im deutschsprachigen Raum bislang keinen CED-spezifischen Fatigue-Fragebogen. 2014 wurde in England der Inflammatory Bowel Disease Fatigue Fragebogen (IBD-F) entwickelt, mit dem Fatigue bei CED ermittelt werden kann. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde der IBD-F in die deutsche Sprache übersetzt und anhand einer deutschsprachigen Stichprobe validiert. 20 CED-Patienten beurteilten die übersetzte Version hinsichtlich Inhalts- und Augenscheinvalidität. Anschließend wurden die Testgütekriterien der deutschsprachigen Version des IBD-F anhand einer Stichprobe von 180 Patienten analysiert. Für Test-Retest-Analysen konnten 78 CED-Patienten eingeschlossen werden. Nach Auswertung der statistischen Analysen kann festgehalten werden, dass die deutsche Version des IBD-F ein reliables und valides Instrument zur Erfassung von Fatigue bei CED ist. Somit kann der erste deutschsprachige Fatigue-Fragebogen zu einer erhöhten Awareness und zu einem besseren Management von Fatigue bei CED beitragen.

description: A family of continuous-state branching processes with immigration are constructed as the solution flow of a stochastic equation system driven by time-space noises. The family can be regarded as an inhomogeneous increasing path-valued branching process with immigration. Two nonlocal branching immigration superprocesses can be defined from the flow. We identify explicitly the branching and immigration mechanisms of those processes. The results provide new perspectives into the tree-valued Markov processes of Aldous and Pitman [Ann. Inst. Henri Poincaré Probab. Stat. 34 (1998) 637-686] and Abraham and Delmas [Ann. Probab. 40 (2012) 1167-1211].

The features of both gluon saturation and hydrodynamic evolution at different energies and different centralities for Au-Au collisions are investigated in this paper.

description: The theory of slice regular functions of a quaternion variable is applied to the study of orthogonal complex structures on domains Ω of R^4. When Ω is a symmetric slice domain, the twistor transform of such a function is a holomorphic curve in the Klein quadric. The case in which Ω is the complement of a parabola is studied in detail and described by a rational quartic surface in the twistor space CP^3.

description: We investigate the corresponding relation between $f(R)$ gravity and an interacting holographic dark energy. By obtaining conditions needed for some observational evidence such as, positive acceleration expansion of universe, crossing the phantom divide line and validity of thermodynamics second law in an interacting HDE model and corresponding it with $f(R)$ mode of gravity we find a viable $f(R)$ model which can explain the present universe. We also obtain the explicit evolutionary forms of the corresponding scalar field, potential and scale factor of universe.

A note on the factorization conjecture

description: We give partial results on the factorization conjecture on codes proposed by Schutzenberger. We consider finite maximal codes C over the alphabet A = {a, b} with C \cap a^* = a^p, for a prime number p. Let P, S in Z , with S = S_0 + S_1, supp(S_0) \subset a^* and supp(S_1) \subset a^*b supp(S_0). We prove that if (P,S) is a factorization for C then (P,S) is positive, that is P,S have coefficients 0,1, and we characterize the structure of these codes. As a consequence, we prove that if C is a finite maximal code such that each word in C has at most 4 occurrences of b's and a^p is in C, then each factorization for C is a positive factorization. We also discuss the structure of these codes. The obtained results show once again relations between (positive) factorizations and factorizations of cyclic groups.

description: We study capital requirements for bounded financial positions defined as the minimum amount of capital to invest in a chosen eligible asset targeting a pre-specified acceptability test. We allow for general acceptance sets and general eligible assets, including defaultable bonds. Since the payoff of these assets is not necessarily bounded away from zero the resulting risk measures cannot be transformed into cash-additive risk measures by a change of numeraire. However, extending the range of eligible assets is important because, as exemplified by the recent financial crisis, assuming the existence of default-free bonds may be unrealistic. We focus on finiteness and continuity properties of these general risk measures. As an application, we discuss capital requirements based on Value-at-Risk and Tail-Value-at-Risk acceptability, the two most important acceptability criteria in practice. Finally, we prove that there is no optimal choice of the eligible asset. Our results and our examples show that a theory of capital requirements allowing for general eligible assets is richer than the standard theory of cash-additive risk measures.
Critical decay exponent of the pair contact process with diffusion

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigate the one-dimensional pair contact process with diffusion (PCPD) by extensive Monte Carlo simulations, mainly focusing on the critical density decay exponent $δ$. To obtain an accurate estimate of $δ$, we first find the strength of corrections to scaling using the recently introduced method [S.-C. Park. J. Korean Phys. Soc. {\bf 62}, 469 (2013)]. For small diffusion rate ($d\le 0.5$), the leading corrections-to-scaling term is found to be $\sim t^{-0.15}$, whereas for large diffusion rate ($d=0.95$) it is found to be $\sim t^{-0.5}$. After finding the strength of corrections to scaling, effective exponents are systematically analyzed to conclude that the value of critical decay exponent $δ$ is $0.173(3)$ irrespective of $d$. This value should be compared with the critical decay exponent of the directed percolation, 0.1595. In addition, we study two types of crossover. At $d=0$, the phase boundary is discontinuous and the crossover from the pair contact process to the PCPD is found to be described by the crossover exponent $ϕ= 2.6(1)$. We claim that the discontinuity of the phase boundary cannot be consistent with the theoretical argument supporting the hypothesis that the PCPD should belong to the DP. At $d=1$, the crossover from the mean field PCPD to the PCPD is described by $ϕ= 2$ which is argued to be exact.

description: Das Glioblastom geht auch im Jahr 2022 weiterhin mit einer infausten Prognose einher und Rezidive treten nahezu immer auf. Am Universitätsklinikum Magdeburg erfolgt seit 2004 eine Implantation von Carmustin Wafern als Konzept der adjuvanten Therapie im Rahmen der Resektion eines Rezidivs. In dieser Arbeit wurde das Therapiekonzept der Implantation von Carmustin Wafern unter Berücksichtigung aller weiteren durchgeführten Therapiemaßnahmen retrospektiv beurteilt. Untersucht wurde eine Kohorte von 73 Patienten mit Glioblastom Rezidiv. Bei 36 Patienten erfolgte eine Implantation von CW. Das Ausmaß und die Häufigkeit des Auftretens unerwünschter Wirkungen entsprach den vorliegenden Daten der Literatur und die Implantation von Carmustin Wafern war nicht mit einem vermehrten Auftreten unerwünschter Wirkungen assoziiert. Daten zum Überleben zeigten kaum messbare Effekte des progressionsfreien Überlebens nach CW Implantation. Das mediane Gesamtüberleben war dagegen nach Implantation von Carmustin Wafern um 4,7 Monate verlängert (log rank p=0,7). Anhand von Subgruppenanalysen zeigte sich die Wirksamkeit der Therapie mit Carmustin Wafern auch bei Vorliegen prognostisch ungünstigerer Marker wie dem höheren Patientenalter, einer nicht erreichten vollständigen Tumorresektion und bei Vorliegen eines nicht methylierten MGMT Promotors. Patienten mit schlechterem Karnofsky Performance Score (<70) zum Zeitpunkt der Rezidiv Operation profitierten nicht von der Therapie mit Carmustin Wafern. Ein Vergleich der Gruppen mit und ohne Carmustin Wafer zeigte, dass Patienten mit Carmustin Wafern signifikant jünger waren, einen besseren Karnofsky Performance Score aufwiesen und im weiteren Verlauf häufiger adjuvante Therapie erhielten. Multivariate Regressionsanalysen bestätigten die weitere postoperative adjuvante Therapie mit signifikantem Effekt für das progressionsfreie Überleben und für das Überlebens ab Rezidiv, sowie den Karnofsky Performance Score und das Patientenalter als Einflussfaktoren des Überlebens ab Rezidiv. Die Implantation von Carmustin Wafern, das Tumorresektionsausmaß und der MGMT Methylierungsstatus blieben ohne Signifikanz in diesem Kollektiv.

Anhand dieser Patienten wurde untersucht, ob es Unterschiede im therapeutischen Procedere, im frühpostoperativen Verlauf sowie im onkologischen Outcome auf Grund des BMI gibt. Hierbei zeigte sich, dass keine grundsätzlichen Behandlungsunterschiede zu finden waren, jedoch vermehrte postoperative Komplikationen sowie eine längere Krankenhausverweildauer, korrelierend zu erhöhtem Gewicht, zu verzeichnen sind. Darüber hinaus zeigte sich ein verlängertes Gesamtüberleben sowie ein längeres krankheitsfreies Überleben der Patienten mit Präadipositas, welches auch für das „obesity paradox“ sprechen könnte.

description: In this paper we consider an axial torsion to build metric-compatible connections in conformal gravity, with gauge potentials; the geometric background is filled with Dirac spinors: scalar fields with suitable potentials are added eventually. The system of field equations is worked out to have torsional effects converted into spinorial self-interactions: the massless spinors display self-interactions of a specific form that gives them the features they have in the non-conformal theory but with the additional character of renormalizability, and the mechanisms of generation of mass and cosmological constants become dynamical. As a final step we will address the cosmological constant and coincidence problems.

Electrochemical corrosion evaluation of niobium and its alloys as metallic bio-implants
Creators: name: Wang, Wei
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Biocompatibility is the primary difference distinguishing biomaterials from other engineering materials. Corrosion resistance becomes important since the corrosion rate is strictly related to the ion release of biomaterials. Niobium (Nb) could be one of the potential materials to be used as metallic bio-implants because of its good biocompatibility, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatibility, and cold working performance. The main objective of this work is to develop a mechanistic understanding of electrochemical corrosion response of Nb alloys as bio-implants by electrochemical methods, static immersion tests, and surface analysis techniques. The effect of microstructure and grain orientation on the corrosion behavior and properties of the passive film was also discussed. Surface treatments were carried out to further increase the corrosion resistance and bioactivity of Nb. The results showed that Nb alloys exhibit superior corrosion resistance in the simulated body fluids. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to monitor the thickness and the structure of the passive film. A compact and protective oxide films was formed on all Nb alloys surface and no pitting or transpassive behavior occurred during the static immersion process up to 24 weeks. The existence of bovine serum albumin (BSA), microstructure as well as the surface grain orientation could affect the corrosion behavior of Nb. No pitting or transpassive behavior was observed in the presence of BSA and NaF. Furthermore, Nb nano-porous and nano-dimples were successfully prepared by anodization methods to improve the bioactivity of Nb. The surface roughness induced by the nanostructure play a critical role in the apatite nucleation and growth during the immersion in simulated body fluid, and the chemical composition of the oxide films could also influence the apatite formation to a certain degree. A mechanism of the apatite nucleation and growth on the nano-structure is proposed. In summary, from the view of corrosion resistance, Nb alloys could be possibly used as metallic bio-implants.

description: Excitons in semiconductors may form correlated phases at low temperatures. We report the observation of an exciton liquid in GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells. Above a critical density and below a critical temperature the photogenerated electrons and holes separate into two phases, an electron-hole plasma and an exciton liquid, with a clear sharp boundary between them. The two phases are characterized by distinct photoluminescence spectra and by different electrical conductance. The liquid phase is formed by the repulsive interaction between the dipolar excitons, and exhibits a short range order, which is manifested in the photoluminescence lineshape.

description: Die Implantation von Elektroden zur Tiefen Hirnstimulation in den Nucleus subthalamicus bei Patienten mit idiopathischem Parkinsonsyndrom wird standardmäßig in Lokalanästhesie durchgeführt, um den Stimulationseffekt auf die Zielsymptomatik und etwaige Nebenwirkungen intraoperativ zu beurteilen. Unter bestimmten Bedingungen wird die Operation gelegentlich auch in Intubationsnarkose durchgeführt. Unter Nutzung einer Noninferioritätsanalyse wird in beiden Gruppen der Einfluss der Narkoseform auf das klinische Outcome anhand des UPDRS III und sekundärer Zielvariablen untersucht. Zwölf Monate postoperativ rangiert die mittlere Änderung des UPDRS III in der Gruppe Intubationsnarkose im vordefinierten Noninferioritätsbereich. Der postoperative Medikamentenbedarf, neuropsychiatrische Indikatoren wie MDRS und BDI, Parkinson-assoziierte, chirurgische und psychiatrische Komplikationen zeigen keine signifikanten Unterschiede zwischen beiden Gruppen. FAB und anästhesiologische Komplikationsrate zeigen Vorteile für die Gruppe Lokalanästhesie. Damit kann das motorische Outcome nach einer Operation in Intubationsnarkose als noninferior gegenüber der Standardprozedur in Lokalanästhesie gelten. Eine solche Operation zeigt darüber hinaus ein ähnliches Sicherheitsprofil.

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.

description: Hintergrund: Das kolorektale Karzinom (KRK) gehört weltweit zu den häufigsten Krebsarten. Auch in Deutschland betrifft etwa jede achte Krebserkrankung den Dick- bzw. Mastdarm. Durch Fortschritte in der Früherkennung, Diagnostik sowie Therapie des KRK hat sich die Lebenserwartung gebessert. Auf Grund dessen gewinnen die Folgen der Erkrankung und Behandlung, durch ihren negativen Einfluss auf die Lebensqualität, zunehmend an Bedeutung. Methoden: Es wurden drei unterschiedlichen Patientengruppen mithilfe von Fragebögen untersucht (insgesamt 216 Patienten). Zusätzlich wurde die Anzahl der chirurgisch behandelten Patienten mit einem KRK 2020 erfasst und mit den Vorjahren verglichen, um den Einfluss der aktuell allgegenwärtigen Auswirkungen der COVID-19-Pandemie zu beurteilen. Ergebnisse: Insbesondere bei jungen Darmkrebspatienten (51 – 60 Jahre) zeigten sich schlechtere Scoring-Werte beim globalen Gesundheitsstatus, den symptomatischen Scores und den funktionellen Scores als Zeichen einer geringeren Lebensqualität. Bei der Betrachtung der Auswirkungen der COVID-19-Pandemie auf die Behandlungszahlen von chirurgischen Patienten war in der ländlichen Region Jerichower Land kein negativer Einfluss zu erkennen. Schlussfolgerungen: Es ist notwendig, die bisherigen moderaten Teilnahmeraten an Darmkrebsvorsorgeuntersuchungen zu steigern, v.a. bei jungen Patienten, um das Auftreten von KRK und die resultierenden Beeinträchtigungen der Lebensqualität möglichst zu vermeiden. Daneben sollten auch die steigenden Inzidenzen des KRK bei unter 50-Jährigen bei der Weiterentwicklung von Screening-Strategien berücksichtigt werden.

Heaps, graphical models, and random walk representations
Creators: name: Helmuth, Tyler
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Spin systems such as the Ising model are central topics in statistical mechanics and probability theory. In the late 1960s Symanzik made the important discovery that properties of spin systems could be expressed in terms of the behaviour of random walks. This thesis contributes to the understanding of these connections by developing and analyzing random walk representations of graphical models arising in statistical mechanics. Concretely, the results of this thesis can be divided into two parts. The first part is a lace expansion analysis of a model called loop-weighted walk. Loop-weighted walk is a non-Markovian model of random walks that are discouraged (or encouraged), depending on the value of a parameter ⋋ ≥ 0, from completing loops. The model arises naturally as a random walk representation of correlations in a statistical mechanics model called the cycle gas. A challenging aspect of this model is that it is not repulsive, meaning the weight of the future of a walk may either increase or decrease if the past is forgotten. The second part of this thesis is an essentially elementary derivation of a random walk representation for the partition function of the Ising model on any finite graph. Such representations have a long history for planar graphs. For non-planar graphs the additional ingredient needed is a way to compute the intersection numbers of curves on surfaces. The representations for non-planar graphs lead to random walk representations of spin-spin correlation functions that were previously unknown.

description: Ultra-cold atoms in optical lattices provide an ideal platform for exploring many-body physics of a large system arising from the coupling among a series of small identical systems whose few-body dynamics is exactly solvable. Using Landau-Zener (LZ) transition of bosonic atoms in double well optical lattices as an experimentally realizable model, we investigate such few to many body route by exploring the relation and difference between the small few-body (in one double well) and the large many-body (in double well lattice) non-equilibrium dynamics of cold atoms in optical lattices. We find the many-body coupling between double wells greatly enhances the LZ transition probability. The many-body dynamics in the double well lattice shares both similarity and difference from the few-body dynamics in one and two double wells. The sign of the on-site interaction plays a significant role on the many-body LZ transition. Various experimental signatures of the many-body LZ transition, including atom density, momentum distribution, and density-density correlation, are obtained.

description: We study a correspondence between $f(R)$ model of gravity and a phenomenological kind of dark energy (DE), which is known as QCD ghost dark energy. Since this kind of dark energy is not stable in the context of Einsteinian theory of gravity and Brans-Dicke model of gravity, we consider two kinds of correspondence between modified gravity and DE. By studding the dynamical evolution of model and finding relevant quantities such as, equation of state parameter, deceleration parameter, dimensionless density parameter, we show that the model can describe the present Universe and also the EoS parameter can cross the phantom divide line without needs to any kinetic energy with negative sign. Furthermore, by obtaining the adiabatic squared sound speed of the model for different cases of interaction, we show that this model is stable. Finally, we fit this model with supernova observational data in a non interaction case and we find the best values of parameter at $1σ$ confidence interval as; $f_0=0.958^{+0.07}_{-0.25}$, $β=-0,256^{+0.2}_{-0.1}$, and $\Om_{m_0} = 0.23^{+0.3}_{-0.15}$. These best-fit values show that dark energy equation of state parameter, $\om_{d_0}$, can cross the phantom divide line at the present time.

description: Non-volatile memory technologies (NVMs) are a new family of technologies that combine near memory level performance with near storage level cost density. The result is a new type of memory hierarchy layer that exists and performs somewhere between the two. These new technologies offer many opportunities for performanceimprovement, but in order to take advantage of these system design needs to account for their particular characteristics. In this thesis, we focus on how to design memory management and caching systems for NVMs. Our work is broken into three major categories targeting differentprimary performance metrics.1. We study how to design algorithms and memory management to achieve fault tolerance with low cost and efficient recovery using NVMs.2. We design an extension to the traditional model of caching to account for data writes in order to improve NVM device lifetime and energy consumption.3. We investigate how to improve throughput in caches by taking advantage of granularity change in the memory hierarchy.Throughout our work we rely on a blend of theoretical and practical approaches. We provide models for processor faults, cache writebacks, and cache-storage communicationthat isolate the targeted effects from orthogonal complications. For each model, we show worst case theoretical bounds for our algorithms along with proofsthat explain how the benefits are derived. We then take our results and provide empirical evaluations to show their effectiveness in practice. We believe that our ideasand approach provide a solid foundational study on memory hierarchy design in the era of non-volatile memories.

description: We prove the existence of long-range order at sufficiently low temperatures, including zero temperature, for the three-state Potts antiferromagnet on a class of quasi-transitive plane quadrangulations, including the diced lattice. More precisely, we show the existence of (at least) three infinite-volume Gibbs measures, which exhibit spontaneous magnetization in the sense that vertices in one sublattice have a higher probability to be in one state than in either of the other two states. For the special case of the diced lattice, we give a good rigorous lower bound on this probability, based on computer-assisted calculations that are not available for the other lattices.

On Supermultiplet Twisting and Spin-Statistics

description: Twisting of off-shell supermultiplets in models with 1+1-dimensional spacetime has been discovered in 1984, and was shown to be a generic feature of off-shell representations in worldline supersymmetry two decades later. It is shown herein that in all supersymmetric models with spacetime of four or more dimensions, this off-shell supermultiplet twisting, if non-trivial, necessarily maps regular (non-ghost) supermultiplets to ghost supermultiplets. This feature is shown to be ubiquitous in all fully off-shell supersymmetric models with (BV/BRST-treated) constraints.

title: Resourcing For Post-Disaster Housing Reconstruction: The Case Of Cyclones Sidr And Aila In Bangladesh
Creators: name: Islam, MZ
Publisher: name: London South Bank University
Year: 2018

description: This study investigates the effectiveness of resourcing in post-disaster housing reconstruction with reference to Cyclones Sidr and Aila in Bangladesh. Through evaluating three key theories- Build Back Better approach, Balance Scorecard approach and Dynamic Competency theories, the synthesis of literature, and empirical fieldwork, this research develops a dynamic theoretical framework that moves the trajectory of post-disaster housing reconstruction towards the reconstruction of more resilient houses. The ultimate goal of any post-disaster housing reconstruction project is to provide quality houses and to achieve high levels of satisfaction for beneficiaries. However, post-disaster reconstruction projects often fail in their stated objectives; only 10-20% housing needs are met, with most houses constructed on a temporary rather than permanent basis. A number of scholars have argued that access to resources can significantly increase the capacity and capability of disaster victims to rebuild their lives, including the construction of new homes. This study draws on structured interviews of 285 villagers affected by cyclones to investigate the effectiveness of resourcing in rebuilding houses after Cyclone Sidr in 2007 and Cyclone Aila in 2009. Furthermore, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 key stakeholders in UNDP, OXFAM, government officials, and national and international NGOs. The results of this study show that recovery rate of cyclone resilient houses that can withstand cyclone is very low and majority of the population are still vulnerable. Furthermore, multiple regression of survey data and thematic analyses of qualitative data indicate that access to resources, level of education, quality of building materials and income-generating activities of the respondents are critical for effective post-disaster recovery. Conversely, resource availability, lack of coordination among participant organisations, corruption and lack of access to appropriate land constituted significant obstacles to livelihood recovery. Finally, this study makes significant theoretical contributions to the theories of post-disaster recovery by introducing access to resources, land, level of education and level of income generating activities as new variables and it also identifies relevant method of measuring the effectiveness of resourcing for post-disaster housing reconstruction by employing parameters of rate of housing reconstruction, vulnerability reduction, poverty reduction, livelihood recovery, beneficiaries’ satisfaction and quality of reconstructed houses by which effectiveness of resourcing can be measured.

description: Given an operad P with a finite Groebner basis of relations, we study the generating functions for the dimensions of its graded components P(n). Under moderate assumptions on the relations we prove that the exponential generating function for the sequence {dim P(n)} is differential algebraic, and in fact algebraic if P is a symmetrization of a non-symmetric operad. If, in addition, the growth of the dimensions of P(n) is bounded by an exponent of n (or a polynomial of n, in the non-symmetric case) then, moreover, the ordinary generating function for the above sequence {dim P(n)} is rational. We give a number of examples of calculations and discuss conjectures about the above generating functions for more general classes of operads.

description: In the first (and abstract) part of this survey we prove the unitary equivalence of the inverse of the Krein--von Neumann extension (on the orthogonal complement of its kernel) of a densely defined, closed, strictly positive operator, $S\geq \varepsilon I_{\mathcal{H}}$ for some $\varepsilon >0$ in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ to an abstract buckling problem operator. This establishes the Krein extension as a natural object in elasticity theory (in analogy to the Friedrichs extension, which found natural applications in quantum mechanics, elasticity, etc.). In the second, and principal part of this survey, we study spectral properties for $H_{K,Ω}$, the Krein--von Neumann extension of the perturbed Laplacian $-Δ+V$ (in short, the perturbed Krein Laplacian) defined on $C^\infty_0(Ω)$, where $V$ is measurable, bounded and nonnegative, in a bounded open set $Ω\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ belonging to a class of nonsmooth domains which contains all convex domains, along with all domains of class $C^{1,r}$, $r>1/2$.

description: Gravitational lensing surveys have now become large and precise enough that the interpretation of the lensing signal has to take into account an increasing number of theoretical limitations and observational biases. Since the lensing signal is the strongest at small angular scales, only numerical simulations can reproduce faithfully the non-linear dynamics and secondary effects at play. This work is the first of a series in which all gravitational lensing corrections known so far will be implemented in the same set of simulations, using realistic mock catalogues and non-Gaussian statistics. In this first paper, we present the TCS simulation suite and compute basic statistics such as the second and third order convergence and shear correlation functions. These simple tests set the range of validity of our simulations, which are resolving most of the signals at the sub-arc minute level (or $\ell \sim 10^4$). We also compute the non-Gaussian covariance matrix of several statistical estimators, including many that are used in the Canada France Hawaii Telescope Lensing Survey (CFHTLenS). From the same realizations, we construct halo catalogues, computing a series of properties that are required by most galaxy population algorithms. These simulation products are publicly available for download.
