description: ATLAS and CMS report indications of a Higgs boson at M_h 125 GeV. In addition, CMS data show a tenuous bump in the ZZ channel, at about 320 GeV. We make the bold assumption that it might be the indication of a secondary line corresponding to the heaviest scalar Higgs boson of Minimal Supersymmetry, H, and discuss the viability of this hypothesis. We discuss also the case of a heavier H, the relevance of the b bbar decay channel is underlined.

Automated roundabout safety analysis : diagnosis and remedy of safety problems
Creators: name: Sadeq, Haytham
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The safety of a transportation system is a serious concern for transportation agencies and analysts. In Canada, roughly 29% and 43% of fatalities and serious injury collisions, respectively, occur at intersections (Road Safety Directorate, 2007). There has been a growing interest in the construction of roundabouts to improve the safety performance and increase the traffic efficiency at regular intersections. As more roundabouts are installed throughout North America, there will be an increased need for a detailed analysis of their safety performance. Collision data used to evaluate the safety performance of roundabouts is considered a reactive and costly approach. Recently, the Traffic Conflict Technique (TCT) has been used to improve and complement the collision-based safety diagnosis approach. The purpose of this thesis is to demonstrate the use of an automated safety analysis tool, developed at the University of British Columbia (UBC), for the diagnosis of safety issues at roundabouts. Traffic conflicts occurring at a roundabout, located at UBC campus, are automatically identified and analyzed to develop an in-depth understanding of the behaviour of road users and the causes of traffic conflicts. The results from this detailed and low-cost approach are used to propose effective countermeasures to proactively improve the safety of roundabouts, and to ultimately reduce collisions. Based on these results, the following safety concerns have been determined; a confusion of the right-of-way between entering and circulating vehicles; inappropriate negotiation between circulating and exiting vehicles; higher risk of pedestrian-vehicle conflicts at exit lanes than entry lanes and the accommodation of cyclists at mixed traffic roundabouts. Several countermeasures proposed to address these concerns are to add cross hatch markings, narrow down circulating lanes, modify central island markings, provide pedestrian crossing signs, and propose further education for drivers on using roundabouts and accommodating vulnerable road users. This thesis helps to demonstrate the effectiveness of the advanced safety tool in diagnosing safety, and proactively demonstrate safety issues at the roundabout.

description: Searches for a nucleon decay into a charged anti-lepton (e^+ or μ^+) plus a light meson (π^0, π^-, η, ρ^0, ρ^-, ω) were performed using the Super-Kamiokande I and II data. Twelve nucleon decay modes were searched for. The total exposure is 140.9 kiloton \cdot years, which includes a 91.7 kiloton \cdot year exposure (1489.2 live days) of Super-Kamiokande-I and a 49.2 kiloton \cdot year exposure (798.6 live days) of Super-Kamiokande-II. The number of candidate events in the data was consistent with the atmospheric neutrino background expectation. No significant evidence for a nucleon decay was observed in the data. Thus, lower limits on the nucleon partial lifetime at 90% confidence level were obtained. The limits range from 3.6 \times 10^31 to 8.2 \times 10^33 years, depending on the decay modes.

Sex differences in acute myocardial infarction in younger adults
Creators: name: Izadnegahdar, Mona A.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Background: Younger adults have been identified as an emerging ‘at-risk’ population with a rising prevalence of cardiac risk factors and hospitalization for acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Coupled with this is an unexplained excess early AMI mortality risk in younger women compared to younger men. Self-perceived health status (symptoms, physical function and disease perception) has been proposed as a contributing factor; however, not much is known about sex differences in health status outcomes of younger adults post AMI. The overarching goal of this thesis is to enhance our understanding of AMI in younger adults (20-55 years). The main objectives are: 1) to examine sex differences and 10-year trends in AMI hospitalization and early AMI mortality, and to determine whether the sex gap in early AMI mortality has changed in recent years, and 2) to examine the sex differences and changes in health status during the first year following AMI. Methods: The age- and sex-specific 10-year trends in AMI hospitalization and 30-day AMI mortality were based on population-based, administrative data in British Columbia (BC) and assessed using negative binomial and logistic regression, respectively. Sex differences and changes in health status were assessed using prospectively collected data on 286 younger AMI patients, in BC. Linear and generalized linear mixed models were used to assess health status changes. Results: Between 2000-2009, younger adults, particularly women, did not experience the same declining AMI hospitalization rates as older adults. Furthermore, for early AMI mortality, the observed sex differences among younger adults persisted, even after adjusting for comorbidities. While health status in both men and women diminished in the first month following AMI, driven by worse angina and physical function, it improved thereafter. Younger women consistently had significantly worse cardiac-related physical function, disease perception, and overall physical and mental health than younger men during the first year; however, the changes in health status were similar in men and women. Conclusions: The findings highlight a persistent sex difference in early mortality and health status following AMI among younger adults. The first month after AMI is a critical period to intensify support and treatment in order to improve outcomes.

description: A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group, if any Schur ring over $G$ is the transitivity module of a permutation group on the set $G$ containing the regular subgroup of all right translations. It was proved by R. Pöschel (1974) that given a prime $p\ge 5$ a $p$-group is Schur if and only if it is cyclic. We prove that a cyclic group of order $n$ is a Schur group if and only if $n$ belongs to one of the following five (partially overlapped) families of integers: $p^k$, $pq^k$, $2pq^k$, $pqr$, $2pqr$ where $p,q,r$ are distinct primes, and $k\ge 0$ is an integer.

description: We study the effects of a dark matter component that consists of bosonic particles with ultralight masses in the condensed state. We compare previous studies for both non-interacting condensates and with repulsive two-body terms and show consistency between the proposals. Furthermore, we explore the effects of rotation on a superfluid dark matter condensate, assuming that a vortex lattice forms as seen in ultracold atomic gas experiments. The influence of such a lattice in virialization of gravitationally bound structures and on galactic rotation velocity curves is explored. With fine-tuning of the bosonic particle mass and the two-body repulsive interaction strength, we find that one can have sub-structure on rotation curves that resembles some observations in spiral galaxies. This occurs when the dark matter halo has an array of hollow cylinders. This can cause oscillatory behavior in the galactic rotation curves in similar fashion to the well-known effect of the spiral arms. We also consider how future experiments and numerical simulations with ultracold atomic gases could tell us more about such exotic dark matter proposals.

We observe the conversion of a beam profile composed of symmetric spin-wave width modes with odd numbers of antinodes n=1,3,... into a mixed set of symmetric and asymmetric modes. Due to the spatial homogeneity of the exciting field along the used microstrip antenna, quantized spin-wave modes with an even number n of antinodes across the stripe's width cannot be directly excited. We show that a break in translational symmetry may result in a partial conversion of even spin-wave waveguide modes

Il teatro è un’arte visiva?

Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2013

description: Is theatre a visual art? We can consider such a question from a double point of view. From a practical perspective the answer seems to be posi-tive, however in theoretical terms the question is more complicated. The western idea of theatre is focused on the primacy of literary and it is only during the XX Century that the aesthetic consideration of theatre chang-es radically. Theater reduces or denies the narrative destination of its communication and emphasizes the production of an iconic meaning. Therefore we can speak of two different kinds of scenic dramaturgy: the “dramaturgy of difference” when we have a free interpretation of a preex-istent literary text (as for Jerzy Grotowski or Carmelo Bene) and an “iconic dramaturgy” (as for Romeo Castellucci or Jan Fabre) when we have the autonomous construction of a visual dramaturgy.

description: Galaxy-scale gas outflows triggered by active galactic nuclei have been proposed as a key physical process to regulate the co-evolution of nuclear black holes and their host galaxies. The recent detection of a massive gas outflow in one of the most distant quasar, SDSS J1148+5251 at z = 6.4, presented by Maiolino et al. (2012) strongly supports this idea and suggests that strong quasar feedback is already at work at very early times. In a previous work, Valiante et al. (2011), we have presented a hierarchical semi-analytical model, GAMETE/ QSOdust, for the formation and evolution of high-redshift quasars, and we have applied it to the quasar SDSS J1148+5251, with the aim of investigating the star formation history, the nature of the dominant stellar populations and the origin and properties of the large dust mass observed in the host galaxy. A robust prediction of the model is that the evolution of the nuclear black hole and of the host galaxy are tightly coupled by quasar feedback in the form of strong galaxy-scale winds. In the present letter, we show that the gas outflow rate predicted by GAMETE/QSOdust is in good agreement with the lower limit of 3500 Msun/yr inferred by the observations. According to the model, the observed outflow at z = 6.4 is dominated by quasar feedback, as the outflow rate has already considerably depleted the gas content of the host galaxy, leading to a down-turn in the star formation rate at z < 7 - 8. Hence, supernova explosions give a negligible contribution to the observed winds at z = 6.4.

description: Let $U\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$ be open and convex. We prove that every (not necessarily Lipschitz or strongly) convex function $f:U\to\mathbb{R}$ can be approximated by real analytic convex functions, uniformly on all of $U$. We also show that $C^0$-fine approximation of convex functions by smooth (or real analytic) convex functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$ is possible in general if and only if $d=1$. Nevertheless, for $d\geq 2$ we give a characterization of the class of convex functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$ which can be approximated by real analytic (or just smoother) convex functions in the $C^0$-fine topology. It turns out that the possibility of performing this kind of approximation is not determined by the degree of local convexity or smoothness of the given function, but by its global geometrical behaviour. We also show that every $C^{1}$ convex and proper function on $U$ can be approximated by $C^{\infty}$ convex functions in the $C^{1}$-fine topology, and we provide some applications of these results, concerning prescription of (sub-)differential boundary data to convex real analytic functions, and smooth surgery of convex bodies.

Suggestioni postdrammatiche di un teatro di confine
Creators: name: Garavaglia, Valentina
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2013

description: In detention centers, as in marginal contexts in general, theater crosses over into the social sphere. As with many efforts of this type, it may follow different paths than official theater, focusing on aspects related to the value of human beings. An out of bounds theater, part of the so-called “theater of diversity”, is based on the idea of community theater and designed to enhance and develop individual inclinations and abilities in a group context. The end product of this approach to theater is a dynamic performance, an object which, according to the categories suggested by Peirce, displays signs that are interposed between the object and its interpreter, forming a ground that is translated into social significance. This is a kind of theater that, because of the spectator’s reaction, falls into a postdramatic context, where the acting materializes the dramatic subject and his world, affirming his identity through a real body in a real space.

description: A surjective endomorphism or, more generally, a polymorphism in the sense of \cite{SV}, of a compact abelian group $H$ induces a transformation of $L^2(H)$. We study the C*-algebra generated by this operator together with the algebra of continuous functions $C(H)$ which acts as multiplication operators on $L^2(H)$. Under a natural condition on the endo- or polymorphism, this algebra is simple and can be described by generators and relations. In the case of an endomorphism it is always purely infinite, while for a polymorphism in the class we consider, it is either purely infinite or has a unique trace. We prove a formula allowing to determine the $K$-theory of these algebras and use it to compute the $K$-groups in a number of interesting examples.

description: The experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are able to discover or set limits on the production of exotic particles with TeV-scale masses possessing values of electric and/or magnetic charge such that they behave as highly ionising particles (HIPs). In this paper the sensitivity of the LHC experiments to HIP production is discussed in detail. It is shown that a number of different detection methods are required to investigate as fully as possible the charge-mass range. These include direct detection as the HIPs pass through either passive or active detectors and, in the case of magnetically charged objects, the so-called induction method with which magnetic monopoles which stop in accelerator and detector material could be observed. The benefit of using complementary approaches to HIP detection is discussed.

description: We discuss a theoretical scheme that accounts for bulk matter, jets, and the interaction between the two. The aim is a complete description of particle production at all transverse momentum ($p_{t}$) scales. In this picture, the hard initial scatterings result in mainly longitudinal flux tubes, with transversely moving pieces carrying the $p_{t}$ of the partons from hard scatterings. These flux tubes constitute eventually both bulk matter (which thermalizes and flows) and jets. We introduce a criterion based on parton energy loss to decide whether a given string segment contributes to the bulk or leaves the matter to end up as a jet of hadrons. Essentially low $p_{t}$ segments from inside the volume will constitute the bulk, high $p_{t}$ segments (or segments very close to the surface) contribute to the jets. The latter ones appear after the usual flux tube breaking via q-qbar production (Schwinger mechanism). Interesting is the transition region: Intermediate $p_{t}$ segments produced inside the matter close to the surface but having enough energy to escape, are supposed to pick up q-qbar pairs from the thermal matter rather than creating them via the Schwinger mechanism. This represents a communication between jets and the flowing bulk matter (fluid-jet interaction). Also very important is the interaction between jet hadrons and the soft hadrons from the fluid freeze-out. We employ the new picture to investigate Pb-Pb collisions at 2.76 TeV. We discuss the centrality and $p_{t}$ dependence of particle production and long range dihadron correlations at small and large $p_{t}$.

The approach is a first principle one (\textit{i.e.}, based on Newton's law), and yields the probability distribution of momenta. For $α$ large enough and $N\gg1$ we observe, for longstanding states, the Maxwellian distribution, landmark of Boltzmann-Gibbs thermostatistics. But, for $α$ small or comparable to unity, we observe instead robust fat-tailed distributions that are quite well fitted with $q$-Gaussians. These distributions extremize, under appropriate simple constraints, the nonadditive entropy $S_q$ upon which nonextensive statistical mechanics is based. The whole scenario appears to be consistent with nonergodicity and with the thesis of the $q$-generalized Central Limit Theorem.

Conflitto sintomatico nelle immagini sceniche

Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano

description: Paper aims to show how traditional dramaturgic concepts can be re-used to study a dramaturgy of image in the contemporary theatrical forms. When dialogue, action and conflict appear into the image, they highlight a dramaturgic movement towards the spectator. We also remark that  mimesis and recognition are questioned, and emotions tend to replace comprehension. It could also be claimed that there is a symptom-effect in perception, if we open the argument to psychoanalysis, as G. Didi-Huberman claimed, as well as to Bachelard’s “reader-dreamer” model.

Unified description of the dynamics of quintessential scalar fields

description: Using the dynamical system approach, we describe the general dynamics of cosmological scalar fields in terms of critical points and heteroclinic lines. It is found that critical points describe the initial and final states of the scalar field dynamics, but that heteroclinic lines which give a more complete description of the evolution in between the critical points. In particular, the heteroclinic line that departs from the (saddle) critical point of perfect fluid-domination is the representative path in phase space of quintessence fields that may be viable dark energy candidates. We also discuss the attractor properties of the heteroclinic lines, and their importance for the description of thawing and freezing fields.

Log-mean linear models for binary data
Creators: name: Roverato, Alberto
name: Lupparelli, Monia

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: This paper introduces a novel class of models for binary data, which we call log-mean linear models. The characterizing feature of these models is that they are specified by linear constraints on the log-mean linear parameter, defined as a log-linear expansion of the mean parameter of the multivariate Bernoulli distribution. We show that marginal independence relationships between variables can be specified by setting certain log-mean linear interactions to zero and, more specifically, that graphical models of marginal independence are log-mean linear models. Our approach overcomes some drawbacks of the existing parameterizations of graphical models of marginal independence.
A duality of locally compact groups which does not involve the Haar measure

description: We present a simple and intuitive framework for duality of locally compacts groups, which is not based on the Haar measure. This is a map, functorial on a non-degenerate subcategory, on the category of coinvolutive Hopf \cst-algebras, and a similar map on the category of coinvolutive Hopf-von Neumann algebras. In the \cst-version, this functor sends $C_0(G)$ to $C^*(G)$ and vice versa, for every locally compact group $G$. As opposed to preceding approaches, there is an explicit description of commutative and co-commutative algebras in the range of this map (without assumption of being isomorphic to their bidual): these algebras have the form $C_0(G)$ or $C^*(G)$ respectively, where $G$ is a locally compact group. The von Neumann version of the functor puts into duality, in the group case, the enveloping von Neumann algebras of the algebras above: $C_0(G)^{**}$ and $C^*(G)^{**}$.

Effect of regrouping on social behaviour and milk production of mid-lactation dairy cows, and individual variation in aggression
Creators: name: Tesfa, Kalab N
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Dairy cows are often mixed into new social groups for management reasons, but this is recognized as a cause of social stress. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effect of regrouping on social behaviour, self-licking and milk production of mid-lactation cows introduced in pairs, and to see whether individual variation in aggression is consistent before and after regrouping. In 7 replications (n=7), 14 mid-lactation cows were introduced in pairs into an established group of filler (resident) cows. After regrouping, agonistic contacts and displacement of the introduced cows increased during the first 3 and 2 days, respectively. Compared to baseline (the day before regrouping), the number of social licking events between the introduced cows and the resident cows in the pen did not change after regrouping, but the proportion of social licking between the two introduced cows increased sharply after regrouping (38 ± 9 %) compared to baseline (10 ± 9 %). Duration of social licking decreased declined after regrouping; whereas, self-licking increased on the day of regrouping. Compared to the resident cows, milk production of the introduced cows significantly decreased on the first 2 days after regrouping, and showed a negative linear association with agonistic contacts received and with displacements lost. Two measures of aggressive behaviour (proportion of agonistic contact initiated and proportion of displacements won) were relatively consistent before and after regrouping (R² = 0.75 and 0.68 respectively), suggesting that the differences reflected individual differences in aggressiveness, rather than social status within a given group. In the present experiment, low-and high-aggressive individuals were not different in milk production, social licking and age at first calving, but low-aggressive cows had higher 305-day projected milk production (12,928.0 ± 580 kg) than high-aggressive cows (10,530.0 ± 530 kg). Individual variation in aggression was not associated with body weight, although the heaviest cow in the group won all encounters before and after regrouping. The findings of this study provide the first insights that introducing cows in pairs may mitigate the effects of social stress during mixing.
Analysis, interpretation and evaluation of COVID-19 using mathematical modeling

description: This paper presents a summary of mathematical experiments conducted to evaluate factors that impact the spread and containment of infectious diseases. While the research was inspired by the SARS-CoV-2 virus which causes COVID-19, the results are applicable for modeling all infectious diseases. A previously published modified SEIR (Susceptible Exposed Infected Recovered) model is used in the study. The impact of social distancing, governance during the outbreak, contact tracing and testing, as well as vaccinations have been considered. A base case to model epidemics is developed, loosely tied to publically available data for COVID-19. Key factors that impact the spread of the pandemic are varied in the model to study the impact of policy, social behaviors, and vaccine development. Results show that while social distancing and lockdowns can “flatten the curve,” or reduce the number of peak infections, quick development, distribution and intake of vaccinations can result in infectious disease containment.

Topological and Entanglement Properties of Resonating Valence Bond wavefunctions

description: We examine in details the connections between topological and entanglement properties of short-range resonating valence bond (RVB) wave functions using Projected Entangled Pair States (PEPS) on kagome and square lattices on (quasi-)infinite cylinders with generalized boundary conditions (and perimeters with up to 20 lattice spacings). Making use of disconnected topological sectors in the space of dimer lattice coverings, we explicitly derive (orthogonal) "minimally entangled" PEPS RVB states. For the kagome lattice, we obtain, using the quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet as a reference model, the finite size scaling of the energy separations between these states. In particular, we extract two separate (vanishing) energy scales corresponding (i) to insert a vison line between the two ends of the cylinder and (ii) to pull out and freeze a spin at either end. We also investigate the relations between bulk and boundary properties and show that, for a bipartition of the cylinder, the boundary Hamiltonian defined on the edge can be written as a product of a highly non-local projector with an emergent (local) su(2)-invariant one-dimensional (superfluid) t--J Hamiltonian, which arises due to the symmetry properties of the auxiliary spins at the edge. This multiplicative structure, a consequence of the disconnected topological sectors in the space of dimer lattice coverings, is characteristic of the topological nature of the states. For minimally entangled RVB states, it is shown that the entanglement spectrum, which reflects the properties of the edge modes, is a subset (half for kagome RVB) of the spectrum of the local Hamiltonian, providing e.g. a simple argument on the origin of the topological entanglement entropy S0=-ln 2 of Z2 spin liquids. We propose to use these features to probe topological phases in microscopic Hamiltonians and some results are compared to existing DMRG data.
