description: We consider two dilute gas Bose-Einstein condensates with opposite velocities from which a monochromatic light field detuned far from the resonance of the optical transition is coherently scattered. In the thermodynamic limit, when the relative fluctuations of the atom number difference between the two condensates vanish, the relative phase between the Bose-Einstein condensates may be established in a superposition state by detections of spontaneously scattered photons, even though the condensates have initially well-defined atom numbers. For a finite system, stochastic simulations show that the measurements of the scattered photons lead to a randomly drifting relative phase and drive the condensates into entangled superpositions of number states. This is because according to Bose-Einstein statistics the scattering to an already occupied state is enhanced.

Confirming long-run descriptions of noise acquired from forensically relevant DNA laboratory pipelines

Year: 2021

description: In forensic DNA applications, characterizing DNA signal to noise resolution is needed to establish effective and reasonable analytical thresholds (AT). Studies have shown the significance of understanding the behavior of baseline noise such that it can be effectively modeled or can be used to compute an analytical threshold that minimizes Type I and II detection error. Previous studies on noise have described electropherogram noise as well-described by normal, log-normal and Gamma distributions, but there still exist differences of opinion on which distribution class to use. PROVEDIt single source and mixture samples amplified using the Powerplex® Fusion 6C kit were used for noise characterization. First, we determine whether a normal or log-normal distribution class best fits the noise data. We also ascertain whether noise distributions are significantly different between colors and between loci. Our findings demonstrate that the log-normal distribution fits the noise data better than the commonly employed normal-class. In addition, noise peak heights were dependent on both dye and locus. Lastly, noise peaks showed an increase in peak height with increase in injection time, suggesting there may be two sources of noise: that originating from instrumentation and that from amplification.

description: Alpha-lactalbumin consists of all the essential and nonessential amino acids, which play a dramatic role in developing newborn baby and be strong enough to fight any kind of the diseases by enhancing the immunity from neonatal baby to 6 years old child. It is a one of the crucial protein in the milk that participates in lactose synthesis and facilitates in milk production. However, the conscientious role of alpha-lactalbumin in interaction with different regulatory proteins and comparative nutritional value in different species are not much known. Here we showed that the percentage of essential amino acids composition in different species along with their interaction with regulatory proteins B4GALT, GLB1, GALE, LCT, GALT, FUT, NOTCH. We found the percentage of essential amino acids composition of alpha-lactalbumin by in-silico (prot-param) study in Human-50%, Bovine49.2%, pig-50.3%, Sheep-49.2%, Dog-48.6%, Horse-46.5, Rat-42.7%, Rabbit-50.3%, Yellow baboon-43.8% and edge confidence of regulatory protein interaction with alpha-lactalbumin are B4GALT1-0.996, GLB10.916, LCT-0.903, GALE-0.903, GALT-0.900 by String (a tool to predict the protein-protein interactions). Our result demonstrates the percentage composition of essential amino acids is higher in Pig and Rabbit in compare to other species in nutritional perspective while the edge confidence strongly inferred that alpha-lactalbumin regulate the process of cellular biosynthesis process, protein glycosylation and UDP catalytic activity etc. Furthermore the result of string also indicates that regulation of fut chaperone by alpha-lactalbumin, which is known for the post-translational modification (fucosylation) of Notch receptor protein.

description: By estimating employment elasticities of various state-level fiscal policies we find that state tax cuts are inefficient job creators, with an elasticity between 0 and -0.1, and lead to a deterioration in state budgets. In contrast, we find that more state government spending on higher education is approximately self-financing, creating enough additional jobs, and, thereby, tax revenue, to offset the higher spending. This suggests that states competing for business and wealthy cross-state migrants by offering low taxes are pursuing an inferior strategy compared to competing on a well-funded, high-quality state higher-education system.

description: We have investigated how memory effects on the teleportation of quantum Fisher information(QFI) for a single qubit system using a class of X-states as resources influenced by decoherence channels with memory, including amplitude damping, phase-damping and depolarizing channels. Resort to the definition of QFI, we first derive the explicit analytical results of teleportation of QFI with respect to weight parameter $θ$ and phase parameter $ϕ$ under the decoherence channels. Component percentages, the teleportation of QFI for a two-qubit entanglement system has also been addressed. The remarkable similarities and differences among these two situations are also analyzed in detail and some significant results are presented.

description: The aim of this review is to explore the effects of the seminar teaching method versus lecture-based learning (LBL) in the education of medical students by meta-analysis. Data and information available on PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, MEDLINE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, China Science Periodical Database, and Chinese BioMedical were searched and examined from the inception up to January 2020. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that investigated the effects of the seminar teaching method versus LBL in medical education were included. A total of 16 RCTs were included, with a total sample size of 1122 medical students. The seminar teaching method significantly improved knowledge scores (SMD = 1.38, 95%CI 0.92–1.84; p < 0.001) and skill scores (SMD = 1.46, 95%CI 1.00–1.91; p < 0.001) and the seminar teaching method significantly improved teaching effects, including active learning ability, learning interest, scientific innovation, and independent thinking ability, expression and communication ability, clinical thinking ability, teamwork, teacher-student interaction, and classroom atmosphere. This meta-analysis showed that the seminar teaching method is an effective method for improving knowledge scores, skill scores, active learning ability, student collaboration, classroom atmosphere, and interaction between teachers and students.

description: Optimization of pretreatment and saccharification of Sorghum durra stalk (Sds) was carried out. The chimeric enzyme (CtGH1-L1-CtGH5-F194A) having β-glucosidase (CtGH1) and endo β-1,4 glucanase activity (CtGH5-F194A) and cellobiohydrolase (CtCBH5A) from Clostridium thermocellum were used for saccharification. Chimeric enzyme will save production cost of two enzymes, individually. Stage 2 pretreatment by 1% (w/v) NaOH assisted autoclaving + 1.5% (v/v) dilute H2SO4 assisted oven heating gave lower total sugar yield (366.6 mg/g of pretreated Sds) and total glucose yield (195 mg/g of pretreated Sds) in pretreated hydrolysate with highest crystallinity index 55.6% than the other stage 2 pretreatments. Optimized parameters for saccharification of above stage 2 pretreated biomass were 3% (w/v) biomass concentration, enzyme (chimera: cellobiohydrolase) ratio, 2:3 (U/g) of biomass, total enzyme loading (350 U/g of pretreated biomass), 24 h and 30 °C. Best stage 2 pretreated Sds under optimized enzyme saccharification conditions gave maximum total reducing sugar yield 417 mg/g and glucose yield 285 mg/g pretreated biomass in hydrolysate. Best stage 2 pretreated Sds showed significantly higher cellulose, 71.3% and lower lignin, 2.0% and hemicellulose, 12.2% (w/w) content suggesting the effectiveness of method. This hydrolysate upon SHF using Saccharomyces cerevisiae under unoptimized conditions produced ethanol yield, 0.12 g/g of glucose.

description: Exterior calculus with its three operations meet, join and hodge star complement, is used for the representation of fermion-hole systems and for fermionic analogues of logical gates. Two different schemes that implement fermionic quantum computation, are proposed. The first scheme compares fermionic gates with Boolean gates, and leads to novel electronic devices that simulate fermionic gates. The second scheme usesa well known map between fermionic and multi-qubit systems, to simulate fermionic gates within multi-qubit systems.

description: We study a simple lattice model of shear-induced clustering in two dimensions in which clusters of particles aggregate under an imposed shear flow and fragment stochastically. Two non-equilibrium steady states are identified: an unjammed state and a jammed state characterised by a system-spanning cluster. A discontinuous jamming transition with strong hysteresis occurs as the shear rate is increased or fragmentation rate decreased. We study the kinetics of jamming and measure power law cluster size distributions. We also consider some general simulation issues including the role of Galilean invariance.

description: We give "hybrid" proofs of the $q$-binomial theorem and other identities. The proofs are "hybrid" in the sense that we use partition arguments to prove a restricted version of the theorem, and then use analytic methods (in the form of the Identity Theorem) to prove the full version. We prove three somewhat unusual summation formulae, and use these to give hybrid proofs of a number of identities due to Ramanujan. Finally, we use these new summation formulae to give new partition interpretations of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities and the Rogers-Selberg identities.

description: The contributions of virtual corrections and soft gluon emission to the inclusive Higgs production cross section pp -> H + X are computed at next-to-next-to-leading order in the heavy top quark limit. We show that this part of the total cross section is well behaved in the sense of perturbative convergence, with the NNLO corrections amounting to an enhancement of the NLO cross section by \sim 5% for LHC and 10-20% for the Tevatron. We compare our results with an existing estimate of the full NNLO effects and argue that an analytic evaluation of the hard scattering contributions is needed.

Optimal consumption, investment and insurance strategy applications

description: Drawing on the existing literature, a utility-maximising agent is studied in the application of a life-cycle optimal strategy of consumption, investment and insurance to different, and unexplored, scenarios. Key factors, including time inconsistent preferences, an optimal stopping time and a dynamic risk environment,can affect agents' behaviour and thereby influence their financial strategies .In this thesis three research papers are developed to apply optimal strategies in various circumstances.
 In the first research paper, an optimal portfolio management model with hyperbolic discounting and luxury-type bequest motives is used to explain the annuity puzzle - the low demand for voluntary life annuities. Using hyperbolic discounting, agents' time-inconsistent preferences can be described and measured in the model. Two extreme types of agents' time-inconsistent behaviours, "naïve" behaviour and "sophisticated" behaviour, are then examined and studied. To build a more realistic model, the luxury-type bequest motives are further incorporated into the model. The model in paper 1 is calibrated to Swiss data to obtain numerical results.
 In the second research paper, the financial planning problem of a retiree seeking to enter a retirement village at a future time is studied. As the retiree is assumed to be utility-driven and would fully annuitise her wealth at the time of entry, her optimal strategy is a solution to problems of both optimal control and optimal stopping. Within the context of dynamic health states, the optimal strategy should include an optimal plan of consumption, investment, bequest and insurance prior to the entry date, and an optimal stopping time to conduct the full annuitisation for entering the retirement village. For a case that has an initial deposit requirement for entering the retirement village, the optimal solution incorporates an American option replication. The model in paper 2 uses Australian data to present our numerical results
 In the final research paper, an optimal strategy is applied in a dynamic risk environment. Jumps and regime switching are incorporated in the risky asset diffusion to describe the dynamic risk environment. By extending the model in Richard (1975), a system of paired Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations is obtained and solved. Using numerical methods and calibrating to American data, the numerical results of agents' behaviours for different risk environments are obtained.

description: Αντικείμενο της παρούσας εργασίας είναι η δημιουργία χημικών μηχανισμών μειωμένης τάξης, ενός βήματος ή δύο βημάτων, για την καύση με φλόγα προανάμιξης σε αέρα δύο σημαντικών πρότυπων καυσίμων, του υδρογόνου (H2) και του μεθανίου (CH4). Για τον σκοπό αυτόν, χρησιμοποιείται μονοδιάστατη προσομοίωση, σε συνδυασμό με αλγόριθμο βελτιστοποίησης βασισμένο σε γενετικούς αλγορίθμους. Συγκεκριμένα, γίνεται σύζευξη του υπολογιστικού πακέτου CHEMKIN με κώδικα βελτιστοποίησης. Εδώ, διαμορφώνεται ένα πολυκριτηριακό πρόβλημα βελτιστοποίησης, με αντικειμενικές συναρτήσεις την απόκλιση της στρωτής ταχύτητας φλόγας και του πάχους αυτής, σε σχέση με τις τιμές που προκύπτουν από την προσομοίωση μονοδιάστατης φλόγας προανάμιξης με χρήση λεπτομερούς χημείας. Οι μεταβλητές σχεδίασης του προβλήματος είναι οι παράμετροι της χημικής κινητικής, συγκεκριμένα οι παράμετροι της ειδικής σταθεράς (ή των ειδικών σταθερών) του απλοποιημένου μηχανισμού, καθώς και η τάξη του κάθε αντιδρώντος, στον νόμο δράσης των μαζών. Η αναπτυχθείσα μεθοδολογία εφαρμόζεται στις ακόλουθες περιπτώσεις:  Καύση υδρογόνου σε αέρα, για λόγους ισοδυναμίας καυσίμου-αέρα Φ=0.6÷1.4, με χημεία ενός βήματος.  Καύση μεθανίου σε αέρα, για λόγους ισοδυναμίας καυσίμου-αέρα Φ=0.6, 1.0, με χημεία ενός βήματος, και δύο βημάτων. Σε όλες τις περιπτώσεις, η διαδικασία βελτιστοποίησης συγκλίνει στο τελικό σύνολο των βέλτιστων λύσεων (μέτωπο Pareto). Στην περίπτωση της φλόγας υδρογόνου, η προκύπτουσα σύγκλιση είναι καλή για χαμηλές τιμές του Φ, με την απόκλιση από τον πλήρη μηχανισμό να αυξάνεται με αύξηση του Φ. Στην περίπτωση της φλόγας μεθανίου Φ=0.6, η σύγκλιση είναι καλή, τόσο για μηχανισμό ενός βήματος, όσο και για μηχανισμό δύο βημάτων, με την ακρίβεια να είναι κατά τι υψηλότερη για τον μηχανισμό δύο βημάτων. Για στοιχειομετρική φλόγα μεθανίου, η σύγκλιση είναι εξαιρετικά καλή καί για τους δύο μηχανισμούς μειωμένης τάξης που χρησιμοποιήθηκαν. Ως απόρροια της παρούσας εργασίας, προέκυψε ένα υπολογιστικό εργαλείο, το οποίο μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί για τη δημιουργία μηχανισμών χημικής κινητικής μειωμένης τάξης, με απώτερο στόχο τη χρήση αυτών σε εφαρμογές Υπολογιστικής Ρευστοδυναμικής.

description: Some nondifferentiable quantities (for example, the metric signature) can be the independent physical degrees of freedom. It is supposed that in quantum gravity these degrees of freedom can fluctuate. Two examples of such quantum fluctuation are considered: a quantum interchange of the sign of two components of the 5D metric and a quantum fluctuation between Euclidean and Lorentzian metrics. The first case leads to a spin-like structure on the throat of composite wormhole and to a possible inner structure of the string. The second case leads to a quantum birth of the non-singular Euclidean Universe with frozen $5^{th}$ dimension. The probability for such quantum fluctuations is connected with an algorithmical complexity of the Einstein equations.

description: In this work a new numerical technique to prepare Cauchy data for the initial value problem (IVP) formulation of Einstein's field equations is presented. Directly inspired by the exterior asymptotic gluing (EAG) result of Corvino (2000) our (pseudo)-spectral scheme is demonstrated under the assumption of axisymmetry so as to fashion composite Hamiltonian constraint satisfying initial data featuring internal binary black holes (BBH) as glued to exterior Schwarzschild initial data in isotropic form. The generality of the method is illustrated in a comparison of the ADM mass of EAG initial data sets featuring internal BBHs as modelled by Brill-Lindquist and Misner data.In contrast to the recent work of Doulis and Rinne (2016), and Pook-Kolb and Giulini (2018) we do not make use of the York-Lichnerowicz conformal framework to reformulate the constraints.

description: We study holography for asymptotically AdS spaces with an arbitrary genus compact Riemann surface as the conformal boundary. Such spaces can be constructed from the Euclidean AdS_3 by discrete identifications; the discrete groups one uses are the so-called classical Schottky groups. As we show, the spaces so constructed have an appealing interpretation of ``analytic continuations'' of the known Lorentzian signature black hole solutions; it is one of the motivations for our generalization of the holography to this case. We use the semi-classical approximation to the gravity path integral, and calculate the gravitational action for each space, which is given by the (appropriately regularized) volume of the space. As we show, the regularized volume reproduces exactly the action of Liouville theory, as defined on arbitrary Riemann surfaces by Takhtajan and Zograf. Using the results as to the properties of this action, we discuss thermodynamics of the spaces and analyze the boundary CFT partition function. Some aspects of our construction, such as the thermodynamical interpretation of the Teichmuller (Schottky) spaces, may be of interest for mathematicians working on Teichmuller theory.

description: A study of channel hardening in a large-scale antenna system has been carried out by means of indoor channel measurements over four frequency bands, namely 1.472 GHz, 2.6 GHz, 3.82 GHz and 4.16 GHz. NTNU's Reconfigurable Radio Network Platform has been used to record the channel estimates for 40 single user non-line of sight radio links to a 64 element wide-band antenna array. By examining the rms delay spread and the ratio of the normalized subcarrier to average SISO link power of the radio channel received by a single user after combination, the hardening of this equivalent channel is analyzed for various numbers of nodes. The channel hardening merits show consistent behaviour throughout the frequency bands. By combining 16 antennas the rms delay spread of the equivalent channel is reduced from above 100 ns to below 35 ns with significantly reduced variation in the channel power.

description:
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether delivering during the early the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic was associated with increased risk of maternal death or serious morbidity from common obstetric complications compared with a historical control period. METHODS: This was a multicenter retrospective cohort study with manual medical-record abstraction performed by centrally trained and certified research personnel at 17 U.S. hospitals. Individuals who gave birth on randomly selected dates in 2019 (before the pandemic) and 2020 (during the pandemic) were compared. Hospital, health care system, and community risk-mitigation strategies for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in response to the early COVID-19 pandemic are described. The primary outcome was a composite of maternal death or serious morbidity from common obstetric complications, including hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (eclampsia, end organ dysfunction, or need for acute antihypertensive therapy), postpartum hemorrhage (operative intervention or receipt of 4 or more units blood products), and infections other than SARS-CoV-2 (sepsis, pelvic abscess, prolonged intravenous antibiotics, bacteremia, deep surgical site infection). The major secondary outcome was cesarean birth. RESULTS: Overall, 12,133 patients giving birth during and 9,709 before the pandemic were included. Hospital, health care system, and community SARS-CoV-2 mitigation strategies were employed at all sites for a portion of 2020, with a peak in modifications from March to June 2020. Of patients delivering during the pandemic, 3% had a positive SARS-CoV-2 test result during pregnancy through 42 days postpartum. Giving birth during the pandemic was not associated with a change in the frequency of the primary composite outcome (9.3% vs 8.9%, adjusted relative risk [aRR] 1.02, 95% CI 0.93-1.11) or cesarean birth (32.4% vs 31.3%, aRR 1.02, 95% CI 0.97-1.07). No maternal deaths were observed. CONCLUSION: Despite substantial hospital, health care, and community modifications, giving birth during the early COVID-19 pandemic was not associated with higher rates of serious maternal morbidity from common obstetric complications.

description: Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) represent a novel state of matter in which quantum fluctuations prevent conventional magnetic order from being established, and the spins remain disordered even at zero temperature. There have been many theoretical developments proposing various QSL states. On the other hand, experimental movement was relatively slow largely due to limitations on the candidate materials and difficulties in the measurements. In recent years, the experimental progress has been accelerated. In this topical review, we give a brief summary of experiments on the QSL candidates under magnetic fields. We arrange our discussions by two categories: i) Geometrically-frustrated systems, including triangular-lattice compounds YbMgGaO4 and YbZnGaO4, kappa-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu2(CN)3, and EtMe3Sb[Pd(dmit)2]2, and kagome system ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2; ii) the Kitaev material alpha-RuCl3. Among these, we will pay special attention to alpha-RuCl3, which has been intensively studied by our and other groups recently. We will present evidence that both supports and unsupports the QSL ground state for these materials, based on which we give several perspectives to stimulate further research activities.

description: Distributions of Coulomb blockade peak spacing are reported for large ensembles of both unbroken (magnetic field B = 0) and broken (B <> 0) time reversal symmetry in GaAs quantum dots. Both distributions are symmetric and roughly gaussian with a width ~ 2-6% of the average spacing, with broad, non-gaussian tails. The distribution is systematically wider at B = 0 by a factor of ~ 1.2 +- 0.1. No even-odd spacing correlations or bimodal structure in the spacing distribution is found, suggesting an absence of spin-degeneracy. There is no observed correlation between peak spacing and peak height.

description: The formation of composite particles in the electron liquid under QHE conditions discussed by Jain in generalizing Laughlins many-particle state is considered by using a model for two-dimensional guiding center configurations. Describing the self-consistent field of electron repulsion by a negative parabolic potential on effective centers and an inter-center amount we show that with increasing magnetic field the ground state of so-called primary composite particles $ν=\frac{1}{q}$, $q=1,3,5,... $, is given for higher negative quantum numbers of the total angular momentum. By clustering of primary composite particles due to absorption or emission of flux quanta we explain phenomenologically the quasi-particle structure behind the series of relevant filling factors $ν=\frac{p}{q}$, $p=1,2,3,...$. Our considerations show that the complicate interplay of electron-magnetic field and electron-electron interactions in QHE systems may be understood in terms of adding flux quanta $Φ_0$ to charges $e$ and binding of charges by flux quanta.
