description: We present algorithms performing sparse univariate polynomial interpolation with errors in the evaluations of the polynomial. Based on the initial work by Comer, Kaltofen and Pernet [Proc. ISSAC 2012], we define the sparse polynomial interpolation codes and state that their minimal distance is precisely the length divided by twice the sparsity. At ISSAC 2012, we have given a decoding algorithm for as much as half the minimal distance and a list decoding algorithm up to the minimal distance. Our new polynomial-time list decoding algorithm uses sub-sequences of the received evaluations indexed by a linear progression, allowing the decoding for a larger radius, that is, more errors in the evaluations while returning a list of candidate sparse polynomials. We quantify this improvement for all typically small values of number of terms and number of errors, and provide a worst case asymptotic analysis of this improvement. For instance, for sparsity T = 5 with up to 10 errors we can list decode in polynomial-time from 74 values of the polynomial with unknown terms, whereas our earlier algorithm required 2T (E + 1) = 110 evaluations. We then propose two variations of these codes in characteristic zero, where appropriate choices of values for the variable yield a much larger minimal distance: the length minus twice the sparsity.

description: We introduce new Lorentz-symmetry violating kinematics for a four-fermion interaction model, where dynamical mass generation is allowed, irrespectively of the strength of the coupling. In addition, these kinematics lead to a quasi-relativistic dispersion relation, in the sense that it is relativistic in both the infrared and the ultraviolet, but not in an intermediate regime, characterized by the mass $M$. For two fermions, we show that a flavour-mixing mass matrix is generated dynamically, and the Lorentz symmetric limit $M\to\infty$ leads to two free relativistic fermions, with flavour oscillations. This model, valid for either Dirac or Majorana fermions, can describe any set of phenomenological values for the eigen masses and the mixing angle.

Three-Body Interacting Bosons in Free Space

Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Quantum Gases (cond-mat.quant-gas)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose a method of controlling two- and three-body interactions in an ultracold Bose gas in any dimension. The method requires us to have two coupled internal single-particle states split in energy such that the upper state is occupied virtually but amply during collisions. By varying system parameters one can switch off the two-body interaction while maintaining a strong three-body one. The mechanism can be implemented for dipolar bosons in the bilayer configuration with tunnelling or in an atomic system by using radio-frequency fields to couple two hyperfine states. One can then aim to observe a purely three-body-interacting gas, dilute self-trapped droplets, the paired superfluid phase, Pfaffian state, and other exotic phenomena.

description: We investigate accurate renormalization group analyses in neutrino sector between $ν$-oscillation and seesaw energy scales. We consider decoupling effects of top quark and Higgs boson on the renormalization group equations of light neutrino mass matrix. Since the decoupling effects are given in the standard model scale and independent of high energy physics, our method can basically apply to any models beyond the standard model. We find that the decoupling effects of Higgs boson are negligible, while those of top quark are not. Particularly, the decoupling effects of top quark affect neutrino mass eigenvalues, which are important for analyzing predictions such as mass squared differences and neutrinoless double beta decay in an underlying theory existing at high energy scale.

description: The intention of this investigation was to inventory the smaller, mobile and sessile invertebrate communities and juvenile fish inhabiting New Jersey reefs. No attempt was made to examine adult fish populations. A biological colonization study of experimental reef habitats in temperate ocean waters off New Jersey was conducted over a 60-month period. A total of 143 different taxa were identified within the experimental units, including 44 arthropoda, 43 annelida and 33 molluska. The results suggest that complex reef habitats provide both attachment surfaces and refuge habitats that support a diverse and abundant marine life community.

Use of complex environmental data for realistic wave tank testing of Wave Energy Converters

description: Wave tank model testing is a commonly used method to assess the performance of Wave Energy Converters (WECs). Wave data collected for testing can be obtained by different instruments (e.g. buoys, ADCP, and HF radar). Currently, the widely accepted way to re-create the wave conditions for WEC model testing is to obtain wave parameters from the wave data collected and apply them to a suitable generic wave spectrum, such as the JONSWAP spectrum or Pierson-Moskowitz spectrum, then reproduce it in the wave tank. By using this method, each wave condition is simplified to several wave parameters such as the significant wave height, wave peak period, etc. However, the parametric wave spectrum obtained by this method is just a simplified mathematical model that omits much useful wave information, such as the details of the wave spectrum and the wave directional information. At later development stages, there is a need to use site-specific complex wave conditions representative of the potential prototype deployment sites for model testing of the WECs. Today, with the development of advanced wave measurement instruments, such as the high-frequency radar system, the site-specific hourly/ half-hourly wave spectra can be obtained to provide the information to recreate the wave conditions in the wave tank in a much more accurate way. After obtaining numerous hourly/ half-hourly wave spectra, it is necessary to determine a certain number of sea states that can best represent the ocean environment of interest for WEC model testing. This thesis compared ten regrouping methods to obtain a small number of representative sea states from a large data set. It was found that the method based on the non-directional wave spectrum K-means clustering technique obtained the sea states with the highest representativeness regardless of the total data set used. The representative sea states were tested both numerically and physically using two different WEC designs, a point absorber and a 1:25 hinged-raft device for their power output performance. The results have shown that the representative sea states obtained from the method not only represented well the ocean environments but also represented the annual power output conditions of the WECs well regardless of the non-linearity. The error in the annual energy output predicted using representative sea states from different regrouping methods was within 1%. The error in the annual energy output predicted using the same regrouping method with a different number of groups was less than 5%.

The compounds have been prepared by a single-pot synthesis in which the Pt(IV) precursor [PtMe2I(CN)L] complexes are allowed to react easily with AgReO4 in which the iodide ligand of the starting Pt(IV) complex is replaced by an ReO4- anion. In these Pt-O-Re complexes, the Pt(IV) centers have an octahedral geometry, completed by a cyclometalated bidentate ligand (CN), two methyl groups and a phosphine ligand, while the Re(VII) centers have a tetrahedral geometry. Elemental analysis, single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy are used to establish their identities. The new complexes exhibit phosphorescence emission in the solid and solution states at 298 and 77 K, which is an uncommon property of platinum complexes with an oxidation state of +4. According to DFT calculations, we found that this emission behavior in the new complexes originates from ligand centered (LC)-L-3 (CN) character with a slight amount of metal to ligand charge transfer ((MLCT)-M-3). The solid-state emission data of the corresponding cycloplatinated(IV) precursor complexes [PtMe2I(CN)L], 1a-1d, pointed out that the replacement of I- by an ReO4- anion helps enhancing the emission efficiency besides shifting the emission wavelengths.
Robust stationary distributed discord in Jordan-Wigner fermion system under perturbations of initial state

description: We investigate the Jordan-Wigner fermion clusters with the stationary distributed pairwise quantum discord. Such clusters appear after the Jordan-Wigner transformation of a spin chain governed by the nearest-neighbor XY-Hamiltonian with the particular initial state having one polarized node. We show that the quantum discord stationarity in such systems is not destroyed by the "parasitic" polarization of at least two types. First type appears because the initial state with a single polarized node is hardly realizable experimentally, so that the low polarization of neighboring nodes must be taken into account. Second, the additional noise-polarization of all nodes is unavoidable. Although the stationarity may not be destroyed by perturbations of the above two types, the parasitic polarizations deform the distribution of the pairwise discord and may destroy the clusters of correlated fermions with equal pairwise discords. Such deformations are studied in this paper.

description: CO-terminated tips currently provide the best spatial resolution obtainable in atomic force microscopy. Due to their chemical inertness, they allow us to probe interactions dominated by Pauli repulsion. The small size and inertness of the oxygen front atom yields unprecedented resolution of organic molecules, metal clusters, and surfaces. We study the capability of CO-terminated tips to laterally manipulate single iron adatoms on the Cu(111) surface with combined atomic force and scanning tunneling microscopy at 7 K. We find that even a slight asymmetry of the tip results in a distortion of the lateral force field. In addition, the influence of the tilt of the CO tip on the lateral force field is reversed compared to the use of a monoatomic metal tip which we can attribute to the inverted dipole moment of a CO tip with respect to a metal tip. Moreover, we demonstrate atom-by-atom assembly of iron clusters with CO tips while using the high-resolution capability of the CO tips in between to determine the arrangement of the individual iron atoms within the cluster. In all conducted experiments using CO tips within this study, the CO was never changed or lost from the tip's apex.

description: The explicit evaluation of linear response coefficients for interacting many-particle systems still poses a considerable challenge to theoreticians. In this work we use a novel many-particle renormalization technique, the so-called projector-based renormalization method, to show how such coefficients can systematically be evaluated. To demonstrate the prospects and power of our approach we consider the dynamical wave-vector dependent spin susceptibility of the two-dimensional Hubbard model and also determine the subsequent magnetic phase diagram close to half-filling. We show that the superior treatment of (Coulomb) correlation and fluctuation effects within the projector-based renormalization method significantly improves the standard random phase approximation results.

description: Meningioma is the most common intracranial tumour, accounting for one third of all primary brain and central nervous system (CNS) tumours. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), meningiomas are classified as grade I, II, and III based on the histological features of tumours, with higher grades associated with greater morbidity and mortality. In most cases, meningioma can be managed by surgery alone; however, adjuvant treatment may be required in case of recurrent or higher-grade tumours. To date, chemotherapy has proven ineffective in treating meningioma patients, highlighting the need to identify novel molecular biomarkers and therapeutic targets, establishing effective non- invasive treatments. The aim of this project is to elucidate microRNA (miRNA)- associated post-translational mechanisms involved in the regulation of Cyclin D1, which has been suggested as a potential prognostic biomarker for meningioma. By focusing on the analysis of specific miRNAs by comparing WHO I, II, and III meningioma tissues and matched blood samples, this study identified potential diagnostic biomarkers circulating in peripheral blood to support the discovery of early tumour recurrence. Moreover, determination of the factors responsible for driving deregulation of miRNA candidates may generate potential therapeutic targets. IV Overexpression of Cyclin D1 was found to correlate with downregulation of the miR-497~195 cluster via the GATA binding protein 4 (GATA-4), a zinc finger transcription factor upregulated in malignant meningioma. Studies in our cell culture model of meningioma demonstrated that high levels of GATA-4 in malignant meningioma cells augment cell viability by controlling the expression of the miR-497~195 cluster, increasing the expression of Cyclin D1, D2, D3, and E1. Consistently, the small-molecule inhibitor NSC140905 reduced GATA-4 activity in malignant meningioma KT21-MG1 cells, restoring miR-497~195 levels. This resulted in decreased cell viability, and reduction of Cyclin D1, D2, D3, and E1 expression. Furthermore, analysis of miR-497~195 in circulating exosomes, derived from higher-grade (grade II and III) meningioma patients, showed lower levels of the miR-497 compared to those of benign origin (grade I). In conclusion, these findings suggest that GATA-4 is a novel potential therapeutic target for malignant meningioma correlating with the miR-497~195 cluster. Moreover, analysis of circulating exosome cargo suggests miR-497 to be a potential non-invasive biomarker for higher-grade meningioma tumours.

description: The main goal of the next generation of weak lensing probes is to constrain cosmological parameters by measuring the mass distribution and geometry of the low redshift Universe and thus to test the concordance model of cosmology. A future all-sky tomographic cosmic shear survey with design properties similar to Euclid has the potential to provide the statistical accuracy required to distinguish between different dark energy models. In order to assess the model selection capability of such a probe, we consider the dark energy equation-of-state parameter $w_0$. We forecast the Bayes factor of future observations, in the light of current information from Planck by computing the predictive posterior odds distribution. We find that Euclid is unlikely to overturn current model selection results, and that the future data are likely to be compatible with a cosmological constant model. This result holds for a wide range of priors.

description: Identity and access management (IAM) has become one main challenge for companies over the last decade. Most of the medium-sized and large organizations operate standardized IAM infrastructures in order to comply with regulations and improve the level of IAM automation. A recent trend is the application of attribute-based access control (ABAC) for automatically assigning permissions to employees. The success of ABAC, however, heavily relies on the availability of high-quality attribute definitions and values. Up to now, no structured attribute quality management approach for IAM environments exists. Within this paper, we propose TAQM, a comprehensive approach building on a tool-supported structured process for measuring and improvement of IAM data quality. During the evaluation of three real-life use cases within large industrial companies we underline the applicability of TAQM for the identification and cleansing of attribute errors by IT and non-IT experts as well as the general introduction of quality management processes for IAM.

Toxicological Effects of Fine Particulate Matter Derived from the Destruction of the World Trade Center
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Research and Development
Year: 2002

description: The goal of the experiments described in this report was to evaluate the toxicity of fine particulate matter (PM) derived from the destruction of the World Trade Center (WTC) on the respiratory tract of mice, and thereby contribute to the short-term health risk assessment of WTC PM being conducted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The adopted approach allowed a comparison of the intrinsic acute toxicity of fine WTC PM in the respiratory tract to well-studied PM reference samples that range in toxicity from essentially inert to quite toxic. The fundamental question was whether fine WTC PM was uniquely highly toxic.

description: We discuss the connection between the origin of neutrino masses and their mixings which arises in a class of scenarios with radiatively induced neutrino masses. In these scenarios, the neutrino mass matrix acquires textures with two entries close to zero in the basis where the charged-lepton mass matrix is diagonal. This results in specific constraints on the neutrino mixing parameters, which leads to the prediction of (i) a normal ordering of neutrino masses with the lightest neutrino mass in the $\sim$ meV range and (ii) testable correlations among the various mixing angles, including a nonzero $θ_{13}$ angle with its exact value correlated with the values of the atmospheric angle $θ_{23}$ and the $CP$ phase $δ$. We quantify the impact of deviations from exact zeroes in the mass matrix texture and connect it to the amount of hierarchy among Yukawa couplings. These scenarios of radiative neutrino mass generation also give rise to new short-range contributions to neutrinoless double beta decay, which dominate over the usual light-neutrino exchange contribution. As a result, this class of models can have a sizable neutrinoless double beta decay rate, in the range of upcoming experiments despite the normal mass ordering of neutrinos.

description: The recent detection of B-modes by BICEP2 has non-trivial implications for axion dark matter implied by combining the tensor interpretation with isocurvature constraints from Planck. In this paper the measurement is taken as fact, and its implications considered, though further experimental verification is required. In the simplest inflation models $r=0.2$ implies $H_I=1.1\times 10^{14}\text{ GeV}$. If the axion decay constant $f_a1$ accounts for theoretical uncertainty). If $f_a>H_I/2π$ then vacuum fluctuations of the axion field place conflicting demands on axion DM: isocurvature constraints require a DM abundance which is too small to be reached when the back reaction of fluctuations is included. High $f_a$ QCD axions are thus ruled out. Constraints on axion-like particles, as a function of their mass and DM fraction, are also considered. For heavy axions with $m_a\gtrsim 10^{-22}\text{ eV}$ we find $Ω_a/Ω_d\lesssim 10^{-3}$, with stronger constraints on heavier axions. Lighter axions, however, are allowed and (inflationary) model-independent constraints from the CMB temperature power spectrum and large scale structure are stronger than those implied by tensor modes.

description: Single crystals of molybdenum-oxy-di-tetrahydrouran-trichloride were obtained by the reaction of Mo2Cl10, tetrahydrofuran, sulfur, and P4S3 in carbon disulfide after layering the solution with n-hexane. Single crystal structure determination at T = 123 K reveals that MoOCl3(THF)(2) crystalizes in the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with the lattice constants a = 7.8620(9) angstrom, b = 12.302(1) angstrom, c = 14.043(2) angstrom, V = 1304.10(3) angstrom(3), and Z = 4. EPR experiments on the solid compound showed a g value of 1.94 at 347.46 mT, which accords to a Mo(V) species. The electronic structure of the title compound was investigated with DFT methods.

description: A distinguished (invariant) Bondi-like coordinate system is defined in the spacetime neighbourhood of a non-expanding horizon of arbitrary dimension via geometry invariants of the horizon. With its use, the radial expansion of a spacetime metric about the horizon is provided and the free data needed to specify it up to given order are determined in spacetime dimension $4$. For the case of an electro-vacuum horizon in $4$-dimensional spacetime the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a Killing field at its neighbourhood are identified as differential conditions on the horizon data and data on null surface transversal to the horizon.

description: The uniform asymptotic approximation method provides a powerful, systematically-improved, and error-controlled approach to construct accurate analytical approximate solutions of mode functions of perturbations of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe, designed especially for the cases where the relativistic linear dispersion relation is modified after gravitational quantum effects are taken into account. These include models from string/M-Theory, loop quantum cosmology and Hořava-Lifshitz quantum gravity. In this paper, we extend our previous studies of the first-order approximations to high orders for the cases where the modified dispersion relation (linear or nonlinear) has only one-turning point (or zero). We obtain the general expressions for the power spectra and spectral indices of both scalar and tensor perturbations up to the third-order, at which the error bounds are $\lesssim 0.15\%$. As an application of these formulas, we calculate the power spectra and spectral indices in the slow-roll inflation with a nonlinear power-law dispersion relation. To check the consistency of our formulas, we further restrict ourselves to the relativistic case, and calculate the corresponding power spectra, spectral indices and runnings to the second-order. Then, we compare our results with the ones obtained by the Green function method, and show explicitly that the results obtained by these two different methods are consistent within the allowed errors.
