description: While charge density wave (CDW) instabilities are ubiquitous to superconducting cuprates, the different ordering wavevectors in various cuprate families have hampered a unified description of the CDW formation mechanism. Here we investigate the temperature dependence of the low energy phonons in the canonical CDW ordered cuprate La$_{1.875}$Ba$_{0.125}$CuO$_{4}$. We discover that the phonon softening wavevector associated with CDW correlations becomes temperature dependent in the high-temperature precursor phase and changes from a wavevector of 0.238 reciprocal space units (r.l.u.) below the ordering transition temperature up to 0.3~r.l.u. at 300~K. This high-temperature behavior shows that "214"-type cuprates can host CDW correlations at a similar wavevector to previously reported CDW correlations in non-"214"-type cuprates such as YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{6+δ}$. This indicates that cuprate CDWs may arise from the same underlying instability despite their apparently different low temperature ordering wavevectors.

description: This paper compares Chinese investment in the Mexican automotive and electronics sectors. The paper
explains how the concept of substantial transformation could allow significant amounts of Chinese
content to enter the United States via Mexico, effectively circumventing Section 301 tariffs. Then it
examines Chinese investments in Mexico’s automotive and electronic sectors. Chinese companies have
made significant investments in Mexico and Mexican imports of intermediates from China have
increased significantly.

description: We consider the Berglund-Hübsch transpose of a bimodal invertible polynomial and construct a triangulated category associated to the compactification of a suitable deformation of the singularity. This is done in such a way that the corresponding Grothendieck group with the (negative) Euler form can be described by a graph which corresponds to the Coxeter-Dynkin diagram with respect to a distinguished basis of vanishing cycles of the bimodal singularity.

A Theory of Sentence Memory as Part of A General Theory of Memory

description: We describe an ACT-R model for sentence memory that extracts both a parsed surface representation and a propositional representation. In addition, if possible for each sentence, pointers are added to a long-term memory referent which reflects past experience with the situation described in the sentence. This system accounts for basic results in sentence memory without assuming different retention functions for surface, propositional, or situational information. There is better retention for gist than for surface information because of the greater complexity of the surface representation and because of the greater practice of the referent for the sentence. This model’s only inference during sentence comprehension is to insert a pointer to an existing referent. Nonetheless, by this means it is capable of modeling many effects attributed to inferential processing. The ACT-R architecture also provides a mechanism for mixing the various memory strategies that participants bring to bear in these experiments.

description:

All organizations have to balance insider risk management and employee privacy. Organizations should aim to monitor activity while maintaining employees’ trust and privacy based on organizational risk appetite, culture, and compliance needs. Despite the lack of a comprehensive, federal privacy regulation like the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), states such as California are instituting their own privacy mandates. State-based protections can have wide-spread impact, causing many organizations to rethink or change their insider risk management practices.

This blog post from researchers at the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute reviews the general framework of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), describes specific implications for insider risk management, and provides recommendations to prepare insider risk programs to mitigate concerns before the CCPA takes effect.

description: New developments in empirical analyses of the proton-proton differential cross section data at high energies are reported. Making use of an unconstrained model-independent parametrization for the scattering amplitude and two different fit procedures, all the experimental data in the center-of-mass energy interval 19.4 - 62.5 GeV are quite well described (optical point and data above the region of Coulomb-nuclear interference). The contributions from the real and imaginary parts of the amplitude beyond the forward direction are discussed and compared with the results from previous analyses and phenomenological models. Extracted overlap functions (impact parameter space) are outlined and a critical discussion on model-independent analyses and results are also presented.

Monomial bases related to the n! conjecture

Subjects: subject: Combinatorics (math.CO)

description: The purpose of this paper is to find a new way to prove the $n!$ conjecture for particular partitions. The idea is to construct a monomial and explicit basis for the space $M_μ$. We succeed completely for hook-shaped partitions, i.e., $μ=(K+1,1^L)$. We are able to exhibit a basis and to verify that its cardinality is indeed $n!$, that it is linearly independent and that it spans $M_μ$. We derive from this study an explicit and simple basis for $I_μ$, the annihilator ideal of $Δ_μ$. This method is also successful for giving directly a basis for the homogeneous subspace of $M_μ$ consisting of elements of 0 $x$-degree.
Local proper scoring rules of order two

description: Scoring rules assess the quality of probabilistic forecasts, by assigning a numerical score based on the predictive distribution and on the event or value that materializes. A scoring rule is proper if it encourages truthful reporting. It is local of order $k$ if the score depends on the predictive density only through its value and the values of its derivatives of order up to $k$ at the realizing event. Complementing fundamental recent work by Parry, Dawid and Lauritzen, we characterize the local proper scoring rules of order 2 relative to a broad class of Lebesgue densities on the real line, using a different approach. In a data example, we use local and nonlocal proper scoring rules to assess statistically postprocessed ensemble weather forecasts.

description: La prévalence des rachialgies chez l’enfant peut atteindre 25 % chez les collégiens âgés de 11 à 15 ans. Les causes relèvent rarement d’une pathologie médicale ou chirurgicale. Parmi les multiples étiologies, reconnaître les signes d’alerte d’une pathologie rhumatismale ou inflammatoire doit faire partie de notre démarche diagnostique. Une rachialgie inflammatoire s’intègre généralement dans un ensemble de symptômes systémiques. Dans le cadre d’une stratégie diagnostique, il faut donc savoir rechercher d’autres éléments cliniques, biologiques ou radiologiques. La sémiologie de la douleur de rythme inflammatoire peut avoir une bonne valeur d’orientation mais prise isolément, elle est insuffisante pour poser le diagnostic. La sémiologie fait préciser le siège de la douleur: rachis, région para vertébrale, articulations sacro-iliaques, et ses éventuelles irradiations (cruralgie, sciatalgie), ses circonstances d’apparition : spontanée ou déclenchée par un traumatisme, dans les suites d'une infection banale, ainsi que son intensité et son rythme.

description: This article reviews the major empirical results and theoretical issues from over 20 years of research on people's acceptance of false information about recently experienced events (see, e.g., Loftus, 1975). Several theoretical perspectives are assessed in terms of their ability to account for the various and sometimes conflicting results in the literature. Theoretical perspectives reviewed include the trace alteration hypothesis, the blocking hypothesis, the task demands/strategic effects hypothesis, source monitoring, and an activation-based semantic memory account. On the basis of its ability to account for the reviewed data and other cognitive phenomena, an activation-based semantic network model of memory is suggested for understanding the data and planning future research in the area.

description: (Abbreviated) In this paper we report on the development of a multiscale method for simulating complex liquid-liquid systems such as water in contact with oil containing asphaltenes. We consider simulations where water drops covered with asphaltenes are deflated, and reproduce the crumpling observed in experiments. The method on the nanoscale is based on using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations of the interface, with an accurate model for the asphaltene molecules. This enables the calculation of interfacial properties. These properties are then used in the macroscale simulation, which is performed with a two-phase incompressible flow solver using a novel hybrid level-set/ghost-fluid/immersed-boundary method for taking the complex interface behaviour into account. We validate both the nano- and macroscale methods. Results are presented from nano- and macroscale simulations which showcase some of the interesting behaviour caused by asphaltenes affecting the interface. The molecular simulations presented here are the first in the literature to obtain the correct interfacial orientation of asphaltenes. Results from the macroscale simulations present a new physical explanation of the crumpled drop phenomenon, while highlighting shortcomings in previous hypotheses.

description: Excerpts from the report: Preliminary results of the 1960 census indicate that a third of the population of the United States now lives in the suburbs, or more precisely in metropolitan areas but outside central cities. Moreover, many of the central cities have been losing population while the suburban areas have gained rapidly. The increase in population in these newly built-up areas has increased the demand for government facilities and services, and for funds with which to finance them. From the attempts to cope with the problems of metropolitan areas have come a number of proposals for changes in local government organization. This report describes five of the proposals most frequently encountered: (1) City-county consolidation, (2) the urban county, (3) the multipurpose metropolitan special district, (4) federation, and (5) regional cooperation. It attempts to examine them from the viewpoint of their effects on rural residents.

We work in the four-flavor number scheme with a non-vanishing bottom-quark mass and include all subprocesses at leading electroweak order as well as all heavy-fermion-loop effects. We show the impact of QCD corrections for total as well as differential cross sections and make an assessment of theoretical uncertainties of $Wb\bar{b}$ production viewed as an irreducible background to $H(\rightarrow b{\bar b})W$ studies. For the calculations we have employed an upgraded version of the BlackHat library which can handle massive fermions in combination with SHERPA. Our results can be explored through publicly available $n$-tuple sets.

description: The magneto-elastic mechanism of development of the first order type instability at the phase transition to the ferromagnet state in itinerant ferromagnet-superconductor UGe2 is discussed. The particular property of this material is the precipitous drop of the critical temperature at pressure increase near 14-15 kbar that drastically increases the temperature of the first order instability in respect to the critical temperature. This effect leading to transformation of the second order type transition to the first order one is determined also by the specific heat increase in the temperature interval of the development of critical fluctuations. After performing the necessary calculations and estimations using the parameters characterizing the properties of UGe2 we argue the effectiveness of this mechanism.

La LI bilatérale représente la cause de 80% des spondylolisthésis (SPL), c’est-à-dire du glissement antérieur de L5 sur le sacrum[4]. L’espace entre l’arc postérieur et la partie antérieure de la vertèbre se comble par un tissu fibreux parfois pseudo-kystique appelé : nodules de Gill[5].

description: The aim of this work is to study some lattice diagram determinants $Δ_L(X,Y)$. We recall that $M_L$ denotes the space of all partial derivatives of $Δ_L$. In this paper, we want to study the space $M^k_{i,j}(X,Y)$ which is defined as the sum of $M_L$ spaces where the lattice diagrams $L$ are obtained by removing $k$ cells from a given partition, these cells being in the ``shadow'' of a given cell $(i,j)$ in a fixed Ferrers diagram. We obtain an upper bound for the dimension of the resulting space $M^k_{i,j}(X,Y)$, that we conjecture to be optimal. This dimension is a multiple of $n!$ and thus we obtain a generalization of the $n!$ conjecture. Moreover, these upper bounds associated to nice properties of some special symmetric differential operators (the ``shift'' operators) allow us to construct explicit bases in the case of one set of variables, i.e. for the subspace $M^k_{i,j}(X)$ consisting of elements of 0 $Y$-degree.

description: Understanding and controlling polyelectrolyte adsorption onto carbon nanotubes is a fundamen- tal challenge in nanotechology. Polyelectrolytes have been shown to stabilise nanotube suspensions through adsorbing onto the nanotube surface, and polyelectrolyte-coated nanotubes are emerging as building blocks for complex and addressable self-assembly. The conventional wisdom suggests that polyelectrolyte adsorption onto nanotubes is driven by specific chemical or van der Waals interac- tions. We develop a simple mean-field model and show that ion-image attraction is a significant effect for adsorption onto conducting nanotubes at low salt concentrations. Our theory suggests a simple strategy to selectively and reversibly functionalize carbon nanotubes based on their electronic structure which in turn modifies the ion-image attraction.

On the dynamical generation of the Maxwell term and scale invariance

name: Smolkin, Michael
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Gauge theories with no Maxwell term are investigated in various setups. The dynamical generation of the Maxwell term is correlated to the scale invariance properties of the system. This is discussed mainly in the cases where the gauge coupling carries dimensions. The term is generated when the theory contains a scale explicitly, when it is asymptotically free and in particular also when the scale invariance is spontaneously broken. The terms are not generated when the scale invariance is maintained. Examples studied include the large $N$ limit of the $CP^{N-1}$ model in $(2+ε)$ dimensions, a 3D gauged $ϕ^6$ vector model and its supersymmetric extension. In the latter case the generation of the Maxwell term at a fixed point is explored. The phase structure of the $d=3$ case is investigated in the presence of a Chern-Simons term as well. In the supersymmetric $ϕ^6$ model the emergence of the Maxwell term is accompanied by the dynamical generation of the Chern-Simons term and its multiplet and dynamical breaking of the parity symmetry. In some of the phases long range forces emerge which may result in logarithmic confinement. These include a dilaton exchange which plays a role also in the case when the theory has no gauge symmetry. Gauged Lagrangian realizations of the 2D coset models do not lead to emergent Maxwell terms. We discuss a case where the gauge symmetry is anomalous.

description: New blockchain platforms are launching at a high cadence, each fighting for attention, adoption, and infrastructure resources. Several studies have measured the peer-to-peer (P2P) network decentralisation of Bitcoin and Ethereum (i.e., two of the largest used platforms). However, with the increasing demand for blockchain infrastructure, it is important to study node decentralisation across multiple blockchain networks, especially those containing a small number of nodes. In this paper, we propose NodeMaps, a data processing framework to capture, analyse, and visualise data from several popular P2P blockchain platforms, such as Cosmos, Stellar, Bitcoin, and Lightning Network. We compare and contrast the geographic distribution, the hosting provider diversity, and the software client variance in each of these platforms. Through our comparative analysis of node data, we found that Bitcoin and its Lightning Network Layer 2 protocol are widely decentralised P2P blockchain platforms, with the largest geographical reach and a high proportion of nodes operating on The Onion Router (TOR) privacy-focused network. Cosmos and Stellar blockchains have reduced node participation, with nodes predominantly operating in large cloud providers or well-known data centres.

Self-interacting spinor fields with canonical and non-canonical kinetic terms are considered in a Friedman-Robertson-Walker universe. The deceleration parameter is calculated by solving the equation of motion and the Friedman equation, simultaneously. It is shown that the spinor fields can accelerate and decelerate the universe expansion. To construct realistic models we discuss the contributions from the dynamical symmetry breaking.

In this paper, we want to study the space $M^k_{i,j}(X,Y)$ which is the sum of $M_D$ spaces where the lattice diagrams $D$ are obtained by removing $k$ cells from a given partition, these cells being in the ``shadow'' of a given cell $(i,j)$ of the Ferrers diagram. We obtain an upper bound for the dimension of the resulting space $M^k_{i,j}(X,Y)$, that we conjecture to be optimal. These upper bounds allow us to construct explicit bases for the subspace $M^k_{i,j}(X)$ consisting of elements of 0 $Y$-degree.

description: As part of our massive spectroscopic survey of 25 Galactic globular clusters with MUSE, we performed multiple epoch observations of NGC 3201 with the aim of constraining the binary fraction. In this cluster, we found one curious star at the main-sequence turn-off with radial velocity variations of the order of 100 km/s, indicating the membership to a binary system with an unseen component since no other variations appear in the spectra. Using an adapted variant of the generalized Lomb-Scargle periodogram, we could calculate the orbital parameters and found the companion to be a detached stellar-mass black hole with a minimum mass of 4.36 $\pm$ 0.41 solar masses. The result is an important constraint for binary and black hole evolution models in globular clusters as well as in the context of gravitational wave sources.

description: Simulating quantum transport through mesoscopic, ring-shaped graphene structures, we address various quantum coherence and interference phenomena. First, a perpendicular magnetic field, penetrating the graphene ring, gives rise to Aharonov-Bohm oscillations in the conductance as a function of the magnetic flux, on top of the universal conductance fluctuations. At very high fluxes the interference gets suppressed and quantum Hall edge channels develop. Second, applying an electrostatic potential to one of the ring arms, $nn'n$- or $npn$-junctions can be realized with particle transmission due to normal tunneling or Klein tunneling. In the latter case the Aharonov-Bohm oscillations weaken for smooth barriers. Third, if potential disorder comes in to play, both Aharonov-Bohm and Klein tunneling effects rate down, up to the point where particle localization sets in.

description: Excerpts from the report Introduction: The loss of our open space to urban and related uses is substantial. Each year, the amount of land converted to intensive urban uses is greater than the total acreage of the State of Rhode Island. Once large open spaces are absorbed for other purposes, it is likely that few--except for the relatively small proportion kept in such uses as parks and recreation areas--will be returned to open space. Despite the growing interest at Federal, State, and local levels in questions of open space, there is still little agreement on certain aspects of the subject. For one thing, open space has no generally accepted, clear definition. Also, answers are needed to such fundamental questions as: Why have open space at all? What purposes should open space serve? What are appropriate methods for retaining open space? The focus of this paper will be on these questions. The answers are basic to rational decisionmaking about which lands to retain in open-space uses.

description: The nuclei of Seyfert 1 galaxies exhibit a range of optical polarization characteristics that can be understood in terms of two scattering regions producing orthogonal polarizations: an extended polar scattering region (PSR) and a compact equatorial scattering region (ESR), located within the circum-nuclear torus. Here we present NICMOS 2.0 micron imaging polarimetry of 6 "polar scattered" Seyfert 1 (S1) galaxies, in which the PSR dominates the optical polarization. The unresolved nucleus (<0.58 arcsec) is significantly polarized in only three objects, but 5 of the 6 exhibit polarization in a 0.58 to 1.5 arcsec circum-nuclear annulus. In Fairall 51 and ESO 323-G077, the polarization position angle at 2 microns (theta2m) is consistent with the average for the optical spectrum (thetav), implying that the nuclear polarization is dominated by polar scattering at both wavelengths. The same is probably true for NGC 3227. In both NGC 4593 and Mrk 766, there is a large difference between theta2m and thetav off nucleus, where polar scattering is expected to dominate. This may be due to contamination by interstellar polarization in NGC 4593, but there is no clear explanation in the case of the strongly polarized Mrk 766. Lastly, in Mrk 1239, a large change (~ 60deg) in theta2m between the nucleus and the annulus indicates that the unresolved nucleus and its immediate surroundings have different polarization states at 2 microns, which we attribute to the ESR and PSR, respectively. A further implication is that the source of the scattered 2 micron emission in the unresolved nucleus is the accretion disk, rather than torus hot dust emission.

description: Для мира, уже который год переживающего кризис, наступил момент истины – упоение «сво-
бодной» экономикой прошло, уступив место разочарованию и усталости от радикального, без-
удержного либерализма. На смену идет система, еще не получившая своего «изма».
В свете этого особое значение приобретает теория длинных волн, созданная Н. Д. Кондратье-
вым, которая служит важнейшим инструментом для адекватного понимания текущих мир-
системных процессов. Мало того, эта теория в совокупности с теорией смены технологических
укладов является одной из немногих в экономической науке, которая позволяет строить научно
обоснованные прогнозы. В настоящей монографии затронут целый комплекс проблем, вполне
удачно объединенных под названием «Кризисы и прогнозы в свете теории длинных волн». Задачей
авторов было более точно установить влияние на экономические подъемы и кризисы объективных
и субъективных факторов циклов разной периодичности; выявить влияние инноваций на экономи-
ческую динамику на разных фазах циклов; использовать теорию длинных волн в совокупности
с теорией смены технологических укладов для построения научно обоснованных прогнозов. Так
или иначе авторы также касались проблемы органичной связи теории длинных (кондратьевских)
волн с теорией средне-срочных (жюгляровских) циклов. Ведь экономический кризис (крах, спад и
депрессия) – это наиболее драматичная часть именно среднесрочного экономического цикла. Кри-
зисы всегда являются результатом предшествующего активного роста, поскольку этот рост неиз-
бежно создает структурные напряжения не только в экономике, но и в обществе в целом (институ-
ты общества рассчитаны на определенный объем и масштаб явлений и процессов). Но, разумеется,
все кризисы при некоторых сходствах проходят по-разному. Кроме того, заметно отличаются они в
зависимости от того, на какой – повышательной или понижательной – фазе длинной кондратьев-
ской волны они случаются.
В монографии также затрагиваются и очень важные вопросы связи государств и экономиче-
ского развития, проблемы возникновения социально-политических кризисов в процессе модерни-
зации, другие аспекты социально-политической нестабильности в разных регионах мира.

description: Two novel acylated steroidal sapogenins, 3β-acetoxy-1α, 2α, 4β, 5α, 7α-pentahydroxy-spirost-25(27)-en-6-one (1) and (25S)-3α-acetoxy-1α, 2β, 4α, 5α, 7α-pentahydroxyspirostan-6-one (2), together with two known steroidal sapogenins (3 and 4), were isolated from Rohdea chinensis rhizomes. Their structures were elucidated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry (MS) data. In addition, the antifungal activities of the isolated compounds against Penicillium digitatum and Rhizopus stolonifera were evaluated. Compound 2 significantly inhibited R. stolonifera growth, which was comparable to the positive control (sodium benzoate and carbendazim). Compound 4 showed the highest potency to inhibit P. digitatum growth compared to other compounds.

description: Le torticolis de l’enfant et de l’adolescent représente un motif fréquent de consultation aux urgences pédiatriques. Certains éléments clefs de l’anamnèse et de l’examen physique permettent d’étayer le diagnostic et d’orienter vers un bilan complémentaire en urgence. Ce bilan d’urgence cherchera à identifier une cause infectieuse ou tumorale. Les deux grandes formes sont le torticolis congénital non douloureux et acquis qu’il convient de distinguer. Le torticolis congénital (musculaire ou postural) chez le nourrisson et le torticolis acquis avec un déplacement rotatoire C1-C2 chez le grand enfant représentent les motifs les plus fréquents. Leur prise en charge précoce permet, dans la très grande majorité des cas, une guérison totale et rapide. Néanmoins, il ne faut pas hésiter à demander des examens supplémentaires si l’asymétrie cervicale persiste et qu’on remet en question le diagnostic initial ou qu’on cherche une autre cause associée.

description: We suggest a model of a multi-agent society of decision makers taking decisions being based on two criteria, one is the utility of the prospects and the other is the attractiveness of the considered prospects. The model is the generalization of quantum decision theory, developed earlier for single decision makers realizing one-step decisions, in two principal aspects. First, several decision makers are considered simultaneously, who interact with each other through information exchange. Second, a multistep procedure is treated, when the agents exchange information many times. Several decision makers exchanging information and forming their judgement, using quantum rules, form a kind of a quantum information network, where collective decisions develop in time as a result of information exchange. In addition to characterizing collective decisions that arise in human societies, such networks can describe dynamical processes occurring in artificial quantum intelligence composed of several parts or in a cluster of quantum computers. The practical usage of the theory is illustrated on the dynamic disjunction effect for which three quantitative predictions are made: (i) the probabilistic behavior of decision makers at the initial stage of the process is described; (ii) the decrease of the difference between the initial prospect probabilities and the related utility factors is proved; (iii) the existence of a common consensus after multiple exchange of information is predicted. The predicted numerical values are in very good agreement with empirical data.

description: Starting from a time-dependent Schrödinger equation, stationary states of 3D central potentials are obtained. An imaginary-time evolution technique coupled with the minimization of energy expectation value, subject to the orthogonality constraint leads to ground and excited states. The desired diffusion equation is solved by means of a finite-difference approach to produce accurate wave functions, energies, probability densities and other expectation values. Applications in case of 3D isotropic harmonic oscillator, Morse as well the spiked harmonic oscillator are made. Comparison with literature data reveals that this is able to produce high-quality and competitive results. The method could be useful for this and other similar potentials of interest in quantum mechanics. Future and outlook of the method is briefly discussed.
