Opportunities for Civic Engagement: A Study in Five Secondary Social Studies Classes
Creators: Pope IV, Alexander
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2015
Subjects: Social sciences--Study and teaching

description: I investigate stakeholder experiences in five New York City secondary classes associated with the low end of the civic opportunity gap. Classroom stakeholders are students, teachers, and college mentors participating in the Generation Citizen program. Generation Citizen is a push-in program meant to promote civic engagement opportunities in middle and high schools associated with the civic opportunity gap. The civic opportunity gap refers to observations that opportunities for civic engagement differ based on racial and socioeconomic markers.
      A conceptual framework based on situated learning theory (Lave & Wenger, 1991) guides data collection and analysis. The framework draws attention to the experiences of individuals and groups in specific contexts, called communities of practice. Successful learning in a community of practice begins with legitimate peripheral participation, a process similar to apprenticeship. Situated learning theory considers the ways that people engage with each other around important issues, imagine realities in other communities, and try to align their efforts with existing processes.
      I present data collected through observations of classroom interactions and interviews with students, teachers, and program mentors. I find that legitimate peripheral participation required classroom stakeholders to engage the root causes of their chosen issues and put their knowledge into practice through actions aligned with the locus of their issue. This finding emerged through three themes, which address the role of classroom pedagogies in supporting or complicating the process of legitimate peripheral participation. Themes allow a discussion of the role that classroom interactions play in framing civic engagement experiences. Opportunities for civic engagement in school can positively address the problems of civic gaps when youth can name and enact legitimate efforts on their own terms.

description: We re-examine the procedure of adiabatic elimination of fast relaxing variables near a bifurcation point when some of the parameters of the system are stochastically modulated. Approximate stationary solutions of the Fokker-Planck equation are obtained near threshold for the pitchfork and transcritical bifurcations. Stochastic resonance between fast variables and random modulation may shift the effective bifurcation point by an amount proportional to the intensity of the fluctuations. We also find that fluctuations of the fast variables above threshold are not always Gaussian and centered around the (deterministic) center manifold as was previously believed. Numerical solutions obtained for a few illustrative examples support these conclusions.

description: In toroidal magnetic confinement devices, such as tokamaks and stellarators, neoclassical transport is usually an order of magnitude larger than its classical counterpart. However, when a high-collisionality species is present in a stellarator optimized for low Pfirsch-Schlüter current, its classical transport can be comparable to the neoclassical transport. In this letter, we compare neoclassical and classical fluxes and transport coefficients calculated for Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) and Large Helical Device (LHD) cases. In W7-X, we find that the classical transport of a collisional impurity is comparable to the neoclassical transport for all radii, while it is negligible in the LHD cases, except in the vicinity of radii where the neoclassical transport changes sign. In the LHD case, electrostatic potential variations on the flux-surface significantly enhance the neoclassical impurity transport, while the classical transport is largely insensitive to this effect in the cases studied.

description: In this paper we present a theoretical model for the dewetting of ultra-thin polymer films. Assumming that the shear-thinning properties of these films can be described by a Cross-type constitutive equation, we analyze the front morphology of the dewetting film, and characterize the time evolution of the dry region radius, and of the rim height. Different regimes of growth are expected, depending on the initial film thickness, and on the power-law index involved in the constitutive equation. In the thin-films regime, the dry radius and the rim height obey power-law time dependences. We then compare our predictions with the experimental results obtained by Debrégeas {\it et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 75}, 3886 (1995)] and by Reiter [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 87}, 186101 (2001)].

description: In massless QCD coupled to QED in an external magnetic field, a photon with the linear polarization in the direction of the external magnetic field mixes with the charge neutral pion through the triangle anomaly, leading to one gapless mode with the quadratic dispersion relation $ω\sim k^2$ and one gapped mode. We show that this gapless mode can be interpreted as the so-called type-B Nambu-Goldstone (NG) mode associated with the spontaneous breaking of generalized global symmetries and that its presence is solely dictated by the anomalous commutator in the symmetry algebra. We also argue a possible realization of such nonrelativistic NG modes in 3-dimensional Dirac semimetals.

Domain adaptation for semantic and 3D tasks
Creators: name: Lopez Rodriguez, Adrian
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2021

description: Data is the main constraint when training Deep Learning models. Real-domain data is costly to annotate and, despite the abundance of already annotated data, training and testing on different distributions leads to low performance due to the so-called domain gap. This domain gap can be bridged with Domain Adaptation methods, which have been mostly researched within an image classification setting. Other tasks, which can be more difficult to annotate, have been less researched. We thus aim to find the efficacy of standard Domain Adaptation techniques for a set of semantic and 3D tasks. We first investigate object detection in a multi-style target dataset setting. For this task we propose three modules based on common Domain Adaptation techniques that are tailored to the challenges of object detection (e.g., negative-examples sampling or multiple local predictions per image) and the characteristics of a multi-style dataset. We hence propose to jointly use feature consistency and data adaptation with a multi-style focus to reduce the effect of the image style on the feature maps. We then use a negative sampling-aware pseudo-labelling approach to further adapt the classifiers. Motivated by the difficulty of obtaining accurate depth ground-truth, we then investigate two depthrelated tasks, i.e., depth estimation and depth completion. Specifically, in our depth estimation work, we combine the natural relationship between semantics and depth to generate size-depth pseudolabels. We also force output consistency with the depth predicted from a semantic map, which presents a lower domain gap. In our depth completion work, we analyze the noise present in a real RGB+LiDAR set-up to propose a hypothesis for the main source of artifacts present. This hypothesis is used to simulate real-like artifacts in synthetic data using multi-view projections, and also to filter the real-domain input LiDAR, which can then be used as a pseudo-label. The improved results in both tasks show that combining geometric and Domain Adaptation ideas can lead to a better adaptation. Lastly, we research camera pose regression. For that task, we focus on generating synthetic data that can be successfully combined with real data to improve the performance of a relative pose regression model. To do so, we propose to use geometric knowledge to generate synthetic views that alleviate current dataset biases, as these biases are limiting the performance of pose regression methods. Through the proposed modifications of common Domain Adaptation techniques (e.g., data adaptation, consistency terms or pseudo-labelling) we reach state-of-the-art results for all of the proposed tasks in standard benchmarks, thus showing that these approaches are useful for a diverse set of tasks. Lastly, we discuss the trends observed in this thesis and we propose future directions that can help reduce the annotation and deployment cost of current machine learning pipelines.

description: Of the various interesting solutions found in the two-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation for anisotropic systems, the phase-chaotic states show particularly novel features. They exist in a broader parameter range than in the isotropic case, and often even broader than in one dimension. They typically represent the global attractor of the system. There exist two variants of phase chaos: a quasi-one dimensional and a two-dimensional solution. The transition to defect chaos is of intermittent type.

description: Equilibrium spatio-temporal correlation functions are central to understanding weak nonequilibrium physics. In certain local one-dimensional classical systems with three conservation laws they show universal features. Namely, fluctuations around ballistically propagating sound modes can be described by the celebrated Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class. Can such universality class be found also in quantum systems? By unambiguously demonstrating that the KPZ scaling function describes magnetization dynamics in the SU(2) symmetric Heisenberg spin chain we show, for the first time, that this is so. We achieve that by introducing new theoretical and numerical tools, and make a puzzling observation that the conservation of energy does not seem to matter for the KPZ physics.

description: Major mining projects in British Columbia are subject to review through the Environmental Assessment (EA) process as a means of ensuring the potential for adverse environmental, social, economic, health and heritage effects or for adverse effects on asserted Aboriginal interests or rights are addressed prior to an EA Certificate decision. Two stages in the EA process provide for a structured review that confirms appropriate information, including conceptual reclamation plans, is in an application for an EA Certificate. There are currently 20 mining projects in the EA process; 18 projects reviews have been completed through a typical EA review and certified since 1995. An informal review of recently certified mine projects found a number of common and pressing reclamation issues facing all mining proposals, whether they be metal, coal, aggregate or industrial mineral mining projects. However the importance of any given issue varies according to the type of project or the location and consequently, approaches to addressing the issues adapt to these variations. The EA process adds value to the planning for a project by ensuring a wide range of views, interests and rights are fully considered in establishing reclamation objectives and in the reclamation plans designed to achieve those objectives.

description: We study spin glasses on random lattices with finite connectivity. In the infinite connectivity limit they reduce to the Sherrington Kirkpatrick model. In this paper we investigate the expansion around the high connectivity limit. Within the replica symmetry breaking scheme at two steps, we compute the free energy at the first order in the expansion in inverse powers of the average connectivity (z), both for the fixed connectivity and for the fluctuating connectivity random lattices. It is well known that the coefficient of the 1/z correction for the free energy is divergent at low temperatures if computed in the one step approximation. We find that this annoying divergence becomes much smaller if computed in the framework of the more accurate two steps breaking. Comparing the temperature dependance of the coefficients of this divergence in the replica symmetric, one step and two steps replica symmetry breaking, we conclude that this divergence is an artefact due to the use of a finite number of steps of replica symmetry breaking. The 1/z expansion is well defined also in the zero temperature limit.

With appropriate boundary term, we derive the higher spin generalization of Schwarzian on-shell action. We investigate gravitationally dressed bi-locals, and we study the soft higher spin mode expansion to obtain soft mode eigenfunctions. We also derive the spin-$s$ eigenfunction from $\mathcal{W}$-Ward identity and a recursion relation. Using the on-shell action, we evaluate the contributions of the soft higher spin modes to the out-of-time-order correlators, and the corresponding Lyapunov exponent of $SL(N)$ higher spin gravity is found to be ${2π\over β}(N-1)$.

Economic Valuation of Natural Resources in the Amazonian Region of Peru: Green Growth to achieve Sustainable Development
Creators: name: Hopkins Alfaro, Jose Diego
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2021

description: This thesis aims to constitute a building block for a consistent and permanent link between economy and environment through the introduction of natural capital to Gross Domestic Product (GDP), in order to have a better understanding of the sustainability of a country. This PhD thesis analyses the environmental, economic, and social context of indigenous communities in five Amazonian regions of Peru: 1. Amazonas, 2. Loreto, 3. Madre de Dios, 4. Ucayali, and 5. San Martín, in order to identify the main environmental threats. Based on the assessment of different economic valuation methods and ecosystem services, this research merges the reality observed in the indigenous communities with a critique of the literature on environment and economy to build an efficient tool that could analyse and monitor the environmental trends and economic costs produced by the most relevant ecosystem service for the regions, in this case, carbon storage. Therefore, this thesis focuses on including a green economic indicator related to the cost of carbon emissions into regional GDP through the economic valuation of carbon storage using the Social Cost of Carbon. This research develops an alternative scenario under current international carbon market prices to measure the potential impact of carbon credits for the selected five Amazonian regions of Peru. Considering the economic relevance for regional and national economy, this research analyses the regional GDP structure to include the cost of carbon emissions to provide a clearer state of regional economic sustainability. Finally, this thesis explores the implementation of Payment for Ecosystem Services (PES) schemes and analyses the risks and barriers through the assessment of PES programs implemented in the Latin American region. After determining the monetary value of carbon stocks, and taking into consideration the social perceptions of development, it was possible to incorporate the economic value of carbon cost into regional GDP, highlighting not only the environmental aspect of the selected ecosystem service provided by the Amazonian tropical forest, but also the economic and social relevance for the regions in particular, and the country in general. As a result, it was possible to highlight the importance of natural capital, and the economic viability of the implementation of environmentally-friendly strategies such as the development of conservation projects that could increase the environmental quality and maintain the amount of carbon in forests, especially in highly vulnerable regions such as the Amazonian forest.

description: Since the first discovery of atomically thin sheets of carbon, two-dimensional (2D) materials have captured the interest from scientific community to expand the understanding in fundamental physics and chemistry at low dimensional systems. With extraordinary phenomena only possible at atomically thin limits, there has been high demand to reveal new and unique 2D materials and manipulate their structures and properties. Structural tunability of superatomic solids motivates us to control dimentionality of the materials and construct layered structures which could be exfoliated to 2D materials. The layered crystal [Co6Se8(PEt2phen)6][C60]5 can be used as a template to create a 2D C60-based material with an optical gap in mid-infrared. Re6Se8Cl2 and Mo6S3Br6, are presented as the first examples of covalently linked 2D superatomic solids built from nanoscale building blocks with hierarchical structures and semiconducting properties. We further demonstrate the emergence of hierarchical coherent phonons in a 2D superatomic semiconductor Re6Se8Cl2. Lastly, we explore complex magnetic phases in 2D ferromagnetic semiconductor CrSBr using second harmonic generation and Raman spectroscopy. 2D superatomic semiconductors and 2D magnetic materials provide additional sets of design principles to manipulate structural, electronic, phononic, and magnetic properties at the atomically thin limits. These materials hold promises as model systems to study fundamental physical principles as well as platform for applications with phonon engineering and magnetic optoelectronic devices.

description: We provide the complete decomposition of the local gauge-invariant energy-momentum tensor for spin-1 hadrons, including non-conserved terms for the individual parton flavors and antisymmetric contributions originating from intrinsic spin. We state sum rules for the gravitational form factors appearing in this decomposition and provide relations for the mass decomposition, work balance, total and orbital angular momentum, mass radius, and inertia tensor. Generalizing earlier work, we derive relations between the total and orbital angular momentum and the Mellin moments of twist-2 and 3 generalized parton distributions, accessible in hard exclusive processes with spin-1 targets. Throughout the work, we comment on the unique features in these relations originating from the spin-1 nature of the hadron, being absent in the lower spin cases.

description: A nonlinear theory of pattern selection in parametric surface waves (Faraday waves) is presented that is not restricted to small viscous dissipation. By using a multiple scale asymptotic expansion near threshold, a standing wave amplitude equation is derived from the governing equations. The amplitude equation is of gradient form, and the coefficients of the associated Lyapunov function are computed for regular patterns of various symmetries as a function of a viscous damping parameter gamma. For gamma approximately 1, the selected wave pattern comprises a single standing wave (stripe pattern). For gamma much less than 1, patterns of square symmetry are obtained in the capillary regime (large frequencies). At lower frequencies (the mixed gravity-capillary regime), a sequence of six-fold (hexagonal), eight-fold,... patterns are predicted. For even lower frequencies (gravity waves) a stripe pattern is again selected. Our predictions of the stability regions of the various patterns are in quantitative agreement with recent experiments conducted in large aspect ratio systems.

title: Grassroots Perspectives of Gentrification And Community-Led Design: The Social Relations Underlying The Design Of Housing
Creators: name: Morton, Tom
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: The UK housing crisis is the result of neoliberal-value’s decades long shift in emphasis, away from viewing commodities as holding use value and toward viewing them as holding exchange value. The consequent effect of this shifting emphasis on the design of housing is that housing is increasingly designed to maximise its exchange value rather than meet a growing need for affordable and accessible housing in the UK. This “gentrification by design” exacerbates the housing crisis, leading to growing rates of statutory homelessness and housing need. Seeking modes of designing housing which foreground its use value, this thesis asks how community-led design (CLD) can facilitate the building of a community’s capacity to tackle gentrification, examining the intersection between CLD as a design practice driven by the use-value of buildings and space, and gentrification as a phenomenon driven by their exchange value. To investigate this intersection a series of case studies with CLD initiatives were undertaken, combining semi-structured interviews with cultural animation, an art-based method of knowledge co-production which foregrounds participant perspectives. Analysis of the results shows that participants framed gentrification as a deliberate strategy of capital accumulation, emerging from an exploitative power dynamic existing between local communities and various sets of opposing actors. Based on these results, this thesis presents the theory that all cases – if they are to be considered genuinely community-led – must in some sense aim to materially alter the socio-spatial relations of power underlying the design of housing in a community’s favour.

The development of an aquatic ecosystem in Trojan Tailings Pond, Highland Valley Copper

description: Trojan Tailings Pond at Highland Valley Copper developed in only 15 years from a biologically inactive water body into a productive lake with a well established aquatic ecosystem and fishery. After a further 8 years, the Trojan system remains sustainable with small annual nitrogen additions. There were two compatible goals in this work; improving tailings water cover quality by biochemically modifying the sediment-water interface, and making the pond productive for wildlife and fish. This transformation was achieved using a few simple and inexpensive procedures including fertilization and introduction of essential organisms. The success at the Trojan Pond has encouraged the use of similar techniques in other water bodies on the mine site.

description: We construct the effective field theory for a single massive higher-spin particle in flat spacetime. Positivity bounds of the S-matrix force the cutoff of the theory to be well below the naive strong-coupling scale, forbid any potential and make therefore higher-derivative operators important even at low energy. As interesting application, we discuss in detail the massive spin-3 theory and show that an extended Galileon-like symmetry of the longitudinal modes, even with spin, emerges at high energy.

description: Atomically thin two-dimensional nanomaterials such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have seen a rapid growth of exploration since the isolation of monolayer graphene. These materials provide a rich field of study for physics and optoelectronics applications. Many applications seek to combine a two dimensional (2D) material with another nanomaterial, either another two dimensional material or a zero (0D) or one dimensional (1D) material. The work in this thesis explores the consequences of these interactions from 0D to 2D. We begin in Chapter 2 with a study of energy transfer at 0D-2D interfaces with quantum dots and graphene. In our work we seek to maximize the rate of energy transfer by reducing the distance between the materials. We observe an interplay with the distance-dependence and surface effects from our halogen terminated quantum dots that affect our observed energy transfer. In Chapter 3 we study supercapacitance in composite graphene oxide- carbon nanotube electrodes. At this 2D-1D interface we observe a compounding effect between graphene oxide and carbon nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes increase the accessible surface area of the supercapacitors and improve conductivity by forming a conductive pathway through electrodes. In Chapter 4 we investigate effective means of improving sample quality in TMDCs and discover the importance of the monolayer interface. We observe a drastic improvement in photoluminescence when encapsulating our TMDCs with Boron Nitride. We measure spectral linewidths approaching the intrinsic limit due to this 2D-2D interface. We also effectively reduce excess charge and thus the trion-exciton ratio in our samples through substrate surface passivation. In Chapter 5 we briefly discuss our investigations on chemical doping, heterostructures and interlayer decoupling in ReS₂. We observe an increase in intensity for p-doped MoS₂ samples. We investigated the charge transfer exciton previously identified in heterostructures. Spectral observation of this interlayer exciton remained elusive in our work but provided the motivation for our work in Chapter 4. We also discuss our preliminary results on interlayer decoupling in ReS₂.

description: We study the envelopes of meromorphy of neighborhoods of symplectically immersed two-spheres in complex Kähler surfaces using the Gromov's theory of pseudoholomorphic curves. The construction of a complete family of holomorphic deformations of a non-compact complex curve in a complex manifold, parametrized by a finite codimension analytic subset of a Banach ball, is given. The existence of this family is used to prove a generalization of Levi's continuity principle, which is applied to describe envelopes of meromorphy.

description: The dynamics of curved vortex filaments is studied analytically and numerically in the framework of a three-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation (CGLE). It is shown that a straight vortex line is unstable with respect to spontaneous stretching and bending in a substantial range of parameters of the CGLE, resulting in formation of persistent entangled vortex configurations. The boundary of the three-dimensional instability in parameter space is determined. Near the stability boundary, the supercritical saturation of the instability is found, resulting in the formation of stable helicoidal vortices.
