description: When consequential decisions are informed by algorithmic input, individuals may feel compelled to alter their behavior in order to gain a system's approval. Models of agent responsiveness, termed "strategic manipulation," analyze the interaction between a learner and agents in a world where all agents are equally able to manipulate their features in an attempt to "trick" a published classifier. In cases of real world classification, however, an agent's ability to adapt to an algorithm is not simply a function of her personal interest in receiving a positive classification, but is bound up in a complex web of social factors that affect her ability to pursue certain action responses. In this paper, we adapt models of strategic manipulation to capture dynamics that may arise in a setting of social inequality wherein candidate groups face different costs to manipulation. We find that whenever one group's costs are higher than the other's, the learner's equilibrium strategy exhibits an inequality-reinforcing phenomenon wherein the learner erroneously admits some members of the advantaged group, while erroneously excluding some members of the disadvantaged group. We also consider the effects of interventions in which a learner subsidizes members of the disadvantaged group, lowering their costs in order to improve her own classification performance. Here we encounter a paradoxical result: there exist cases in which providing a subsidy improves only the learner's utility while actually making both candidate groups worse-off--even the group receiving the subsidy. Our results reveal the potentially adverse social ramifications of deploying tools that attempt to evaluate an individual's "quality" when agents' capacities to adaptively respond differ.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: We compute the free energy density $F$ for gauge theories, with fermions, at high temperature and zero chemical potential. In the expansion $F=T^4 [c_0+c_2 g^2+c_3 g^3+(c'_4\ln g+c_4)g^4+ (c'_5\ln g+c_5)g^5+O(g^6)]$, we determine $c'_5$ and $c_5$ analytically by calculating two- and three-loop diagrams. The $g^5$ term constitutes the first correction to the $g^3$ term and is for the non-Abelian case the last power of $g$ that can be computed within perturbation theory. We find that the $g^5$ term receives no contributions from overlapping double-frequency sums and that $c'_5$ vanishes.

description: To analyze the switching dynamics and output performance of a superconducting nanowire single photon detector (SNSPD), the nanowire is usually modelled as an inductor in series with a time-varying resistor induced by absorption of a photon. Our recent experimental results show that, due to the effect of kinetic inductance, for a SNSPD made of a nanowire of sufficient length, its geometry length can be comparable to or even longer than the effective wavelength of frequencies contained in the output pulse. In other words, a superconducting nanowire can behave as a distributed transmission line so that the readout pulse depends on the photon detection location and the transmission line properties of the nanowire. Here, we develop a distributed model for a superconducting nanowire and apply it to simulate the output performance of a long nanowire designed into a coplanar waveguide. We compare this coplanar waveguide geometry to a conventional meander nanowire geometry. The simulation results agree well with our experimental observations. With this distributed model, we discussed the importance of microwave design of a nanowire and how impedance matching can affect the output pulse shape. We also discuss how the distributed model affects the growth and decay of the photon-triggered resistive hotspot.

We briefly discuss how these results relate to Stein and Stein-Chen methods for Gaussian and Poisson approximation, and to the Bakry-Emery calculus.

Simple security analysis of phase-matching measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: Variations of phase-matching measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (PM-MDI QKD) protocols have been investigated before, but it was recently discovered that this type of protocol (under the name of twin-field QKD) can beat the linear scaling of the repeaterless bound on secret key rate capacity. We propose a variation of PM-MDI QKD protocol, which reduces the sifting cost and uses non-phase-randomized coherent states as test states. We provide a security proof in the infinite key limit. Our proof is conceptually simple and gives tight key rates. We obtain an analytical key rate formula for the loss-only scenario, confirming the square root scaling and also showing the loss limit. We simulate the key rate for realistic imperfections and show that PM-MDI QKD can overcome the repeaterless bound with currently available technology.

description: This paper uses patient responses to the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey for three years (2009-2011) from 1,333 acute-care hospitals in fourteen states to analyze patterns in 10 hospital-reported patient experience-of-care scores by 29 characteristics classified as: patient characteristics, payer source, patient severity, hospital characteristics, hospital operations, and market characteristics. We also evaluate how scores have changed over the three-year period. We find significant differences in patient experience-of-care scores by hospital characteristics for 250 out of 290 HCAHPS-hospital characteristic combinations measured. We find fewer significant differences in changes in scores from 2009-2011 (135 out of 290), with hospitals categorized as high scoring also reporting consistently greater improvement. We conclude that patient experience-of-care scores vary by hospital characteristics, although improvements in scores show less variety by hospital categorization.

description: An impurity in a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid leads to a crossover between short- and long-distance regime which describes many physical phenomena. However, calculation of the entire crossover of correlation functions over different length scales has been difficult. We develop a powerful numerical method based on infinite DMRG utilizing a finite system with infinite boundary conditions, which can be applied to correlation functions near an impurity. For the $S=1/2$ chain, we demonstrate that the full crossover can be precisely obtained, and that their limiting behaviors show a good agreement with field-theory predictions.
Washington Photometry of the Globular Cluster System of NGC 4472. II. The Luminosity Function and Spatial Structure

description: We present a comprehensive study of the luminosity function and spatial structure of the globular cluster system of NGC 4472, based on deep wide field Washington CT1 CCD images. The globular cluster luminosity function shows a peak at T1=23.3 +/- 0.1 mag, about 1.5 mags brighter than our 50% completeness limit. We estimate the true distance modulus to NGC 4472 to be (m-M)o = 31.2 +/- 0.2. With our large sample (~ 2000) of bright globular clusters over a wide field, we make a definitive investigation of the spatial structures of the metal-poor and metal-rich cluster populations and find that they are systematically different: (1) The metal-rich clusters are more centrally concentrated than the metal-poor clusters; and (2) The metal-rich clusters are elongated roughly along the major axis of the parent galaxy, while the metal-poor clusters are essentially spherically distributed. In general, the metal-rich clusters closely follow the underlying halo starlight of NGC 4472 in terms of spatial structure and metallicity, while the metal-poor clusters do not. The global value of the specific frequency of the globular clusters in NGC 4472 is estimated to be S_N = 4.7 +/- 0.6. The local specific frequency increases linearly outward from the center of NGC 4472 until ~ 5'.5, beyond which it levels off at S_N ~ 8.5 until the limit of our data at 7'. The specific frequency of both the metal-rich and metal-poor populations shows similar behavior. However, S_N of the metal-poor clusters is about a factor 2 larger than that of the metal-rich clusters in the outer regions. Implications of these results for the origin of the globular clusters in NGC 4472 are discussed.

description: When a large body of data from diverse experiments is analyzed using a theoretical model with many parameters, the standard error matrix method and the general tools for evaluating errors may become inadequate. We present an iterative method that significantly improves the reliability of the error matrix calculation. To obtain even better estimates of the uncertainties on predictions of physical observables, we also present a Lagrange multiplier method that explores the entire parameter space and avoids the linear approximations assumed in conventional error propagation calculations. These methods are illustrated by an example from the global analysis of parton distribution functions.

Gauge independence of the bubble nucleation rate in theories with radiative symmetry breaking

Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: In field theories where a metastable false vacuum state arises as a result of radiative corrections, the calculation of the rate of false vacuum decay by bubble nucleation depends on the effective potential and the other functions that appear in the derivative expansion of the effective action. Beginning with the Nielsen identity, we derive a series of identities that govern the gauge dependence of these functions. Using these, we show, to leading nontrivial order, that even though these functions are individually gauge-dependent, one obtains a gauge-independent result for the bubble nucleation rate. Our formal arguments are complemented by explicit calculations for scalar electrodynamics in a class of $R_ξ$ gauges.

description: The possibility of generating the baryon asymmetry of the Universe via flavor oscillation in the early Universe is discussed. After the inflation, leptons are born in some states, travel in the medium, and are eventually projected onto flavor eigenstates due to the scattering via the Yukawa interactions. By using the Lagrangian of the Standard Model with the Majorana neutrino mass terms, llHH, we follow the time evolution of the density matrices of the leptons in this very first stage of the Universe and show that the CP violation in the flavor oscillation can explain the baryon asymmetry of the Universe. In the scenario where the reheating is caused by the decay of the inflaton into the Higgs bosons, the baryon asymmetry is generated by the CP phases in the Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata matrix and thus can be tested by the low energy neutrino experiments.

Influence of diffuse surface scattering on the stability of superconducting phases with spontaneous surface current generated by Andreev bound states

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)

description: We report a theoretical study on the phase transition between superconducting states with and without spontaneous surface current. The phase transition takes place due to the formation of surface Andreev bound states in unconventional superconductors. Based on the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity, we examine the influence of atomic-scale surface roughness on the surface phase transition temperature $T_s$. To describe the surface effect, the boundary condition for the quasiclassical Green's function is parameterized in terms of specularity (the specular reflection probability in the normal state at the Fermi level). This boundary condition allows systematic study of the surface effect ranging from the specular limit to the diffuse limit. We show that diffuse quasiparticle scattering at a rough surface causes substantial reduction of $T_s$ in the d-wave pairing state of high-$T_c$ cuprate superconductors. We also consider a p-wave pairing state in which Andreev bound states similar to those in the d-wave state are generated. In contrast to the d-wave case, $T_s$ in the p-wave state is insensitive to the specularity. This is because the Andreev bound states in the p-wave superconductor are robust against diffuse scattering, as implied from symmetry consideration for odd-frequency Cooper pairs induced at the surface; the p-wave state has odd-frequency pairs with s-wave symmetry, while the d-wave state does not.

How Do Hospital Nurse Staffing Strategies Affect Patient Satisfaction?

description: In this article, the authors evaluate the role of the nurse staffing mix on hospital patient satisfaction. Using three years (2009 to 2011) of hospital patient satisfaction data linked to data on the productive staffing hours of registered nurses (RNs), licensed vocational nurses, nurse’s aides, and contract nurses for 311 California hospitals, the authors analyze how nurse staffing levels affect 10 dimensions of patient satisfaction. The findings indicate that a higher level of RNs per bed appears to increase overall patient satisfaction. Conversely, hospitals with a higher proportion of nursing hours provided by contract nurses have significantly lower levels of patient satisfaction on scores related to overall patient satisfaction and nurses’ communication with the patient. The results have implications for RN staffing strategies and inform the broader literature on worker-skill mix and employment arrangements.

Our approach permits us to express the nonclassicality witness condition in terms of common observables in the context of electronic spectroscopy experiments, such as the induced polarization. In this way, we provide the theoretical framework allowing one to infer nonclassicality from the detected signals in these experiments.

Improving agricultural data management practices: raising the bar together
Creators: name: Parr, Cynthia
Publisher: name: F1000 Research Limited
Year: 2019

description: The United States National Agricultural Library (NAL) is currently engaged in a number of coordination efforts that involve both changing the culture and improving technology around FAIR agricultural data management. In part, this is part of ongoing work to improve and sustain the Ag Data Commons, the US Department of Agriculture’s system for cataloging and storing datasets created with USDA funding, and the open source DKAN Science platform behind it. However, there is no one system that will improve consistent data management practice due to the diverse needs of agricultural research communities. Therefore, NAL has been working with US agricultural university libraries, discipline-specific data managers, and other stakeholders to promote the application of existing recommendations, and to identify gaps and barriers to adoption and form collaborations to accelerate progress. For example, a Data Management Plan review service will be most effective if we coordinate efforts across libraries and research offices, and assist funders in training those who review plans. We initiated a series of workshops aimed first at researchers and then at extension agents, Driving Innovation through Data in Agriculture (DIDag) to increase awareness of new policies and to begin addressing challenges in specific communities. We are participating in the development of small unmanned aerial systems research data standards. Finally, we plan to leverage the central cataloging features of the Ag Data Commons to provide key services to a growing group of agricultural genomics databases, AgBioData, as they coordinate their FAIR data practices. Through the RDA Interest Group on Agricultural Data we can ensure that emerging practices and promotion strategies are shared effectively across global communities.

description: We calculate one-loop renormalization factors of bilinear quark operators for gluon action including six-link loops and $O(a)$-improved quark action in the limit of massless quark. We find that finite parts of one-loop coefficients of renormalization factors diminish monotonically as either of the coefficients $c_1$ or $c_2+c_3$ of the six-link terms are decreased below zero. Detailed numerical results are given, for general values of the clover coefficient, for the tree-level improved gluon action in the Symanzik approach $(c_1=-1/12, c_2=c_3=0)$ and for the choices suggested by Wilson $(c_1=-0.252, c_2=0, c_3=-0.17)$ and by Iwasaki $(c_1=-0.331, c_2=c_3=0$ and $c_1=-0.27, c_2+c_3=-0.04)$ from renormalization-group analyses. Compared with the case of the standard plaquette gluon action, finite parts of one-loop coefficients are reduced by 10--20% for the Symanzik action, and approximately by a factor two for the renormalization-group improved gluon actions.

title: Effectiveness of a Community Based Public Health Initiative in Syracuse, New York
Creators: name: DeMott, MK
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 2006

description: This thesis undertakes the evaluation of a multifaceted community intervention, the Syracuse Healthy Start Initiative, which aimed to reduce rates of infant mortality, particularly among African American women in Syracuse, New York. Analysis of the research literature confirms that preterm delivery and low birth weight are major causes of infant mortality. The project targeted interventions to causes of preterm/low birth weight, in four areas of risk: nutrition, smoking cessation, maternal stress and bacterial vaginosis infection. Utilizing a conceptual framework of cumulative risk and a case-control study design, a retrospective chart review was undertaken which reviewed all the preterm/low birth weight deliveries during 2000-2001 in the project area. Each project intervention was analyzed. Interviews with fifteen women who delivered singleton infants in the project area were also conducted Using a semi- structured interview guide women were queried specifically about smoking habits, nutritional status, stress during pregnancy and infection history The quantitative data was subjected to a simple descriptive analysis and then to a logistic regression analysis controlling for any confounding The effect of race was also analyzed. The interviews with postpartum women were transcribed and subjected to a thematic coding procedure described by Maykut and Morehouse (1994). The results indicate a significant association between preterm/low birth weight delivery and women who were positive for bacterial vaginosis but not treated [OR 2.48 (95% Cl 1.23-5.86)]. This was the only intervention that reached significance. Major themes in the qualitative analysis highlight the complexity of women’s lives and the existence of cumulative risk in each case. The role of BV treatment was also apparent among the interviewees. The results of this evaluation support previous work which demonstrates the relationship of BV infection and preterm delivery. It is suggested that a targeted BV screening strategy which combines risk assessment with prevalence information should be considered.

description: A brief overview of the status of color transparency experiments is presented. We report on the first complete calculations of color transparency within a perturbative QCD framework. We also comment on the underlying factorization method and assumptions. Detailed calculations show that the slope of the transparency ratio with $Q^2$, and the effective attenuation cross sections extracted from color transparency experiments depend on the $x$ distribuition of wave functions.

title: Prescribing and Proscribing: The Public-Private Relationship in the Treatment of Drug Addiction in England, 1970-99
Creators: name: Mars, SG
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 2006

description: People dependent on illicit drugs have prompted a range of policy responses. In England, the medical profession has played a major role in this area since the nineteenth century, prescribing drugs such as heroin and morphine to those addicts considered unable to give up using them. In the late 1960s, amid important regulatory changes, drug dependent patients were transferred out of primary care and into new National Health Sendee ‘Clinics’ based in hospitals. This thesis starts just after these major changes and traces the relationship between doctors treating drug users within the NHS — initially inside the Clinics, and later also in general practice — and doctors prescribing privately and paid by fee. A debate about appropriate prescribing to drug users is traced from its origins within the Clinics in the 1970s to include the role of doctors working outside both privately and in the NHS in the 1980s and ’90s. Conflict emerged between these doctors and manifested itself in regulatory activities and in the general and medical media. The role of formal and informal regulation in these battles and the involvement of the media arc particular foci of the research which considers the parts played by the Home Office Drugs Inspectorate, the General Medical Council, and the production of clinical guidelines, as well as the formation of professional interest groups representing different doctors. The study used oral history materials (53 interviews were carried out with key individuals and private prescribers), archival research, published reports, the medical and general press and academic journals, as well as broadcast radio and television programmes.
Virtual Top Effects on Low-Mass Higgs Interactions at Next-to-Leading Order in QCD

description: We present the next-to-leading-order QCD corrections of O(alpha_s^2 G_F M_t^2) to the low-M_H effective l^+l^-H, ZZH, and W^+W^-H interaction Lagrangians in the high-M_t limit. In the on-shell scheme formulated with G_F, the O(alpha_s^2 G_F M_t^2) corrections support the O(alpha_s G_F M_t^2) ones and further increase the screening of the O(G_F M_t^2) terms. The coefficients of (alpha_s/pi)^2 range from -6.847 to -16.201, being in line with the value -14.594 recently found for Delta rho. All four QCD expansions converge considerably more rapidly, if they are written with mu_t=m_t(mu_t), where m_t(mu) is the MS-bar mass, rather than the pole mass, M_t.

description: Random-matrix eigenvalues have a well-known interpretation as a gas of like-charge particles. We make use of this to introduce a model of vortex dynamics by defining a time-dependent wave function as the characteristic polynomial of a random matrix with a parameterized deformation, the zeros of which form a gas of interacting vortices in the phase. By the introduction of a quaternionic structure, these systems are generalized to include anti-vortices and non-vortical topological defects: phase maxima, phase minima and phase saddles. The commutative group structure for complexes of such defects generates a hierarchy, which undergo topologically-allowed reactions. Several special cases, including defect-line bubbles and knots, are discussed from both an analytical and computational perspective. Finally, we return to the quaternion structures to provide an interpretation of two-vortex fundamental processes as states in a quaternionic space, where annihilation corresponds to scattering out of real space, and identify a time--energy uncertainty principle.

description: Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) are a keystone species in the Southern Ocean ecosystem at risk of overfishing due to their high commercial demand. Understanding the Antarctic toothfish’s age distribution is crucial for enacting regulatory policies to protect the species, and is traditionally done manually by aging their otoliths. Otoliths are calcified structures in the fish’s ear that contain growth zones similar to tree rings, which are counted to determine the age of a fish in years. The Otolith-Ages dataset was constructed from 1302 images of otoliths, and was used to train aging models with regression and classification formulations. Resulting aging models were capable of aging otoliths with an average percent error of 6.3%, coming within 1.7% of trained human readers. Another dataset, Otolith-Edges, was constructed from a subset of 58 otolith images annotated with edge maps of their growth zones to facilitate future work on aging otoliths using edge detection methods.
