description: The composition of the essential oil (EO) from leaves of Vernonia polyanthes and the evaluation of its leishmanicidal potential are reported here for the first time. The oil obtained by hydrodistillation was analysed by combination of GC and GC/MS. Thirty-five compounds were identified, representing 91.8% of the oil composition. The oil consists primarily of monoterpenes (37.1%), sesquiterpenes (26.3%) and oxygenated sesquiterpenes (23.9%), myrcene (34.3%), zerumbone (15.8%), bicyclogermacrene (8.9%), α-humulene (4.8%) and germacrene D (4.3%) being the major constituents. Activity against Leishmania infantum was determined using the tetrazolium dye (MTT) colorimetric method. The oil, as well as zerumbone, one of its major constituents, showed significant leishmanicidal activity, with IC50 values of 19.4 and 9.0 μg/ml, respectively. Cytotoxicity in macrophages cells was evaluated using the MTT colorimetric assay. The EO showed the CC50

description: We prove that for any partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism with one dimensional neutral center on a 3-manifold, the center stable and center unstable foliations are complete; moreover, each leaf of center stable and center unstable foliations is a cylinder, a M$\ddot{o}$bius band or a plane.
 Further properties of the Bonatti-Parwani-Potrie type of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms are studied. Such examples are obtained by composing the time $m$-map (for $m>0$ large) of a non-transitive Anosov flow $ϕ_t$ on an orientable 3-manifold with Dehn twists along some transverse tori, and the examples are partially hyperbolic with one-dimensional neutral center. We prove that the center foliation gives a topologically Anosov flow which is topologically equivalent to $ϕ_t$. We also prove that for the precise example constructed by Bonatti-Parwani-Potrie, the center stable and center unstable foliations are robustly complete.

description: One new alkaloid, named as acremolin C (1), was isolated from static culture of Antarctic fungus, Aspergillus sydowii SP-1, in an investigation of the antimicrobial constituents of this Antarctic microorganism, and its structure was determined by spectroscopic methods. Additionally, four known compounds, cyclo-(L-Trp-L-Phe) (2), 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (3), (7S)-(+)-hydroxysydonic acid (4) and (7S, 11S)-(+)-12-hydroxysydonic acid (5), were isolated and identified. Biological studies disclosed that compounds 2, 4 and 5 showed moderate inhibitions against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE) as comparing to tigecycline, while compound 1 displayed weak inhibition activities against MRSA and MRSE.

description: We prove that the arrow category of a monoidal model category, equipped with the pushout product monoidal structure and the projective model structure, is a monoidal model category. This answers a question posed by Mark Hovey, and has the important consequence that it allows for the consideration of a monoidal product in cubical homotopy theory. As illustrations we include numerous examples of non-cofibrantly generated monoidal model categories, including chain complexes, small categories, topological spaces, and pro-categories.

description: Across the eastern Mediterranean only a limited number of inscriptions, coins and papyri attest the term ἐπιν(ε)ίκια bestowed on local festivities. My paper studies for the first time the genesis and evolution of a particular title that could be presented as a sign of loyalty and friendship towards Roman rule. Through an analysis of mostly direct evidence, I aim to provide the perspective of certain local communities which, while subjected to Rome, remarkably strove to celebrate its victories. This bottom-up approach also seeks to show the importance of reciprocity in the constant diplomatic exchange between emperors, administrators and eastern provincials.

description: The article presents an edition of the verso of P.Ross.Georg.V 25. The publication of both recto and verso of this papyrus, now kept at the Georgian National Centre of Manuscripts in Tbilisi (inv.344), was planned by G. Zereteli in the same volume V, but ultimately only recto was published. An attempt to trace the history of the acquisition and publication of inv.344, as well as its possible realtion to other Memphite papyri, is made in the introduction. The text of the verso is an overview of plots of land in Memphite villages, with calculations of arourai. The editor suggests it could be written for private purposes and used as an excerpt from an official land register or as a draft used for the preparation of a section in a longer list.

Optimising the medical management of ileoanal pouch related complications and discovering novel therapeutic avenues through metabonomic profiling
Creators: name: Segal, Jonathan Philip
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: Restorative proctocolectomy is considered a quality of life surgical procedure in patients with ulcerative colitis who fail to respond to conventional medical therapies and in some patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis. This thesis explores the current management of chronic primary idiopathic pouchitis through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Following this review I have explored the clinical utility of antibiotics and biologics in a cohort of patients with both chronic primary idiopathic pouchitis and pre-pouch ileitis. I have found that the treatment options for chronic pouchitis and pre-pouch ileitis are limited and that long-term treatments such as antibiotics and biologics are ineffective in a significant proportion of patients often leading to a permanent ileostomy. I have also explored the effect of some non-medical therapies including biofeedback and the Renew® anal insert for incontinence and evacuatory problems and have shown that they may be a useful adjunct in the treatment of these pouch related complications. The second focus of the thesis is to try and understand the mechanisms that drive the development of pouchitis. I undertook a systematic review to explore what was already known about the gut microbiota and its role in health and disease of the pouch. I then utilised next generation sequencing technologies to include metataxonomics, nuclear magnetic resonance and mass-spectrometry gas chromatography to link the gut microbiota with the metabolic signatures in serum, urine, faeces and mucosal tissue. I used these techniques to compare patients with pouchitis against healthy controls and patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis. These studies have highlighted the importance of the Firmicutes phylum and their role in the production of short chain fatty acids. I have found that a depletion in short chain fatty acids may contribute to the development of pouchitis. Future work may build on methods to increase short chain fatty acid delivery to the pouch through methods such as dietary interventions, distal feeding prior to continuity surgery or direct short chain fatty acid supplementation delivered topically to the pouch.
Iterative synthesis of uniform poly(ethylene glycol) via organic solvent nanofiltration
Creators: name: Schaepertoens, Marc
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: This thesis describes the synthesis of uniform, heterobifunctional poly(ethylene glycol) via organic solvent nanofiltration, a scalable and cost-effective membrane-based technology that allows reactions and purifications to be carried out in liquid medium throughout and provides access to oligomers of commercially relevant length. This membrane-based strategy contrasts with established routes via chromatography, extraction and solid phase synthesis. The preparation of uniform oligomers relies on the stepwise addition of building blocks, one at a time, over many synthetic extension cycles. To ensure uniformity, the growing oligomer requires purification from excess building block and reaction debris after each extension. In this strategy, intermediate and final products en route to the desired poly(ethylene glycol) oligomer are freed from impurities by diafiltration. In order to facilitate the removal of impurities during diafiltration, multiple oligomers are synchronously grown on a soluble, multivalent anchor. The attachment of multiple growing oligomers onto the anchor leads to a fast-growing product complex with enough size to be well-retained by a membrane. On the other hand, the separable impurities consisting of much smaller building block and reaction debris can readily pass through the membrane, resulting in an efficient separation. To enhance discrimination, the anchor is enlarged, and the size of the functional groups on the building block minimized. Further, the anchor is designed to be sufficiently distinct and readily detectable by UV. A two-stage diafiltration process then allowed the synthesis of uniform, mono-methyl Eg60 (mPEG-2700) with excellent quality (dispersity Đ = 1.0006, oligomer purity = 97 %) from an Eg12 building block in four chain extension cycles. It is demonstrated that deprotection and purification may be accomplished jointly via nanofiltration with a poly(ether ether ketone) membrane that is sufficiently stable towards acidic deprotection conditions and that spent diafiltration solvent may be partially recovered by membrane-based solvent recovery in a closed loop.

description: The bioassay guided fractionation of methanolic extract of Murraya koenigii (L.) Spreng. leaves resulted in the isolation of seven pyranocarbazoles. These were evaluated against four bacterial strains and ten Candida sp. including two matched pair of fluconazole sensitive/resistant clinical isolates. Out of seven, three i.e. Koenine (mk279), Koenigine (mk309) and Mahanine (mk347) exhibited significant antibacterial activity MIC90 3.12–12.5 μg/mL against bacterial strains Streptococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumonia compared with standard drug Kanamycin MIC90 12.5 μg/mL. However, only mk309 was found active against variety of Candida species MIC90 12.5–100 μg/mL. It was observed that hydroxylation at C-6 and C-7 positions in the studied pyranocarbazoles activate the bioactivity. Simultaneously, decrease in Log P value compares with −H and −O−CH3 substituted derivatives. The study is focused on selective antifungal and antibacterial activity of pyranocarbazoles on bacterial strains S. aureus, K. pneumonia and variety of Candida species with structure activity relationship observations.

description: We evaluate axial vector transition form factors in holographic QCD models that have been shown to reproduce well recent experimental and theoretical results for the pion transition form factor. Comparing with L3 data on $f_1\toγγ^*$ we find remarkable agreement regarding the shape of single-virtual form factors. In the double-virtual case, the holographic results differ strongly from a simple dipole form, and this has an important impact on the corresponding estimate of the axial vector contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $a_μ$ through hadronic light-by-light scattering. We demonstrate that hard-wall models satisfy the Melnikov-Vainshtein short-distance constraint for the latter, if and only if the infinite tower of axial vector states is included. The results for $a_μ$, however, are strongly dominated by the first few resonances. Numerically, these results turn out to be surprisingly large: (2.9 - 4.1)$\times 10^{-10}$ in the hard-wall models, 57-58% of which are due to the longitudinal contribution, which is the one responsible for the Melnikov-Vainshtein short-distance constraint. Rescaling the holographic result to obtain an optimal fit of L3 data, but then matching only 52% of the asymptotic constraint, the result is reduced to $2.2(5)\times 10^{-10}$, which is still significantly larger than most previous phenomenological estimates of the axial vector exchange contribution.

description: The best management of drinking water treatment residue (DWTR) in environmental remediation should be based on comprehensively understanding the effectiveness and risk of DWTR. In this study, the variation in physicochemical properties, metal lability, and adsorption capability of DWTR under oxidizing condition were investigated. The oxidizing condition was set up using ozone treatment, and the laboratory incubation test were performed within 50 d in association with thermogravimetry, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry, specific surface area and porosity analyzer, fractionation, and P adsorption test. The results showed that ozone treatment had limited effect on the properties of organic matter, the lability of Al, Cu, and Fe, the P adsorption capability, and the distributions of the adsorbed P in DWTR, but the treatment increased N2 sorption/desorption, specific surface area, total pore volume of DWTR and led to the transformation of Mn from acid-soluble to reducible fractions. These findings demonstrated that DWTR generally kept stable under oxidizing environment; even oxidizing environment may induce a tendency of increasing the adsorption capability and decreasing the environmental risk of DWTR. Accordingly, the effectiveness and safety of DWTR can be maintained under natural aerobic environment, and DWTR is a reliable adsorbent that could be recycled in environmental remediation.

description: Modern scholarship has usually taken for granted that in treating the crime de ambitu the Lex Coloniae Genetivae Iuliae has essentially adopted elements from the parallel Roman legislation against the electoral corruption, with no more than few superficial modifications. However, the analysis of the chapter 132 of the charter of Urso in the light of some excerpts from Cicero’s Pro Murena shows that the local law profoundly innovated in respect to the central model, by introducing concepts – such as the possibility for the judges of prosecuting both the corrupters and the corrupted – that only sporadically seem to emerge in the contemporary Roman legislation de ambitu.

description: L’entretien a été enregistré auprès d’une femme âgée de 37 ans, une semaine après la naissance de ses jumeaux (une fille et un garçon). L’enquêtrice débute l’entretien avec des questions sur les expériences de l’allaitement et de l’accouchement. L’informatrice répond que l’allaitement est une très belle expérience pour elle comme pour les enfants même si cela a été un peu difficile au début. Elle confie qu’après avoir allaité son premier enfant un an et quatre mois, elle allaitera ses jumeaux deux ans car elle a constaté que le sevrage du lait maternel pour son premier a été très difficile. Selon elle, son accouchement, par voie basse, n’a eu aucune influence sur la production de colostrum. S’ensuit une discussion sur le colostrum. L’informatrice évoque le fait que ses enfants ont absorbé de l’eau sucrée une seule fois avant leur allaitement. S’agissant de l’aspect du colostrum (ou “lba” en marocain), elle le trouve plus concentré que le lait mais elle ne l’a jamais goûté. Elle exprime son opinion concernant la prise du colostrum, en disant que si l’enfant ne prend pas le colostrum c’est comme s’il n’avait jamais été allaité. L’informatrice explique qu’elle n’a jamais effectué de recherches particulières sur le colostrum et qu’elle n’a jamais entendu parler de l’importance de l’allaitement à l’hôpital. S’agissant du co-allaitement, elle y est plutôt opposée même si elle l'a déjà pratiqué une fois pour venir en aide à un enfant qui ne pouvait pas être allaité. Concernant le don de colostrum, elle explique ne pas pouvoir répondre, ne s’étant jamais retrouvée dans cette situation. L’enquêtrice aborde également l’aspect religieux. L’informatrice, de confession musulmane, explique que l’islam est favorable à l’allaitement mais ne sait rien concernant plus particulièrement le colostrum. L’enquêtrice lui pose ensuite des questions au sujet des conséquences de la grossesse et de l’allaitement sur le corps et l’esthétique de la femme. Elle répond que pour elle, particulièrement avec les jumeaux, les effets ont été négatifs et permanents. Elle n’a suivi aucun régime alimentaire particulier pour favoriser la montée de lait. L’informatrice est formelle, l'allaitement maternel est le meilleur choix selon elle. L’enquêtrice aborde ensuite le thème de la sexualité. Durant sa grossesse, l’informatrice explique qu’elle a eu une perte de libido mais qu’elle a quand même eu des rapports sexuels pour éviter le mécontentement de son mari. En revanche, durant l’allaitement, elle a eu une activité sexuelle tout à fait normale. L’informatrice explique la mortalité infantile par le manque d’attention des parents et le manque de soins. Selon elle, une comparaison entre l’allaitement maternel et l’allaitement chez les animaux n’est pas possible.

description: Smokers with minor spirometric abnormalities can experience persistent activity-related dyspnea and exercise intolerance. Additional resting tests can expose heterogeneous physiological abnormalities, but their relevance and association with clinical outcomes remain uncertain. Subjects included sixty-two smokers (≥20 pack-years), with cough and/or dyspnea and minor airway obstruction [forced expiratory volume in one-second (FEV1) ≥80% predicted and >5th percentile lower limit of normal (LLN) (i.e., z-score >−1.64) using the 2012-Global Lung Function Initiative equations]. They underwent spirometry, plethysmography, oscillometry, single-breath nitrogen washout, and symptom-limited incremental cycle exercise tests. Thirty-two age-matched nonsmoking controls were also studied. Thirty-three (53%) of smokers had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease by LLN criteria. In smokers [n = 62; age 65 ± 11 years; smoking history 43 ± 19 pack-years; post-bronchodilator FEV1 z-score −0.60 ± 0.72 and FEV1/FVC z-score −1.56 ± 0.87 (mean ± SD)] versus controls, peak oxygen uptake (̇VO2) was 21 ± 7 vs. 32 ± 9 ml/kg/min, and dyspnea/̇VO2 slopes were elevated (both p < 0.0001). Smokers had evidence of peripheral airway dysfunction and maldistribution of ventilation when compared to controls. In smokers versus controls: lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) was 85 ± 22 vs. 105 ± 17% predicted, and residual volume (RV)/total lung capacity (TLC) was 36 ± 8 vs. 31 ± 6% (both p < 0.01). The strongest correlates of peak ̇VO2 were DLCO% predicted (r = 0.487, p < 0.0005) and RV/TLC% (r = −0.389, p = 0.002). DLCO% predicted was also the strongest correlate of dyspnea/̇VO2 slope (r = −0.352, p = 0.005). In smokers with mild airway obstruction, associations between resting tests of mechanics and pulmonary gas exchange and exercise performance parameters were weak, albeit consistent. Among these, DLCO showed the strongest association with important outcomes such as dyspnea and exercise intolerance measured during standardized incremental exercise tests.

description: Single-photon sources are key building blocks in most of the emerging secure telecommunication and quantum information processing schemes. Semiconductor quantum dots (QD) have been proven to be the most prospective candidates. However, their practical use in fiber-based quantum communication depends heavily on the possibility of operation in the telecom bands and at temperatures not requiring extensive cryogenic systems. In this paper we present a temperature-dependent study on single QD emission and single-photon emission from metalorganic vapour-phase epitaxy-grown InGaAs/GaAs QDs emitting in the telecom O-band. Micro-photoluminescence studies reveal that trapped holes in the vicinity of a QD act as reservoir of carriers that can be exploited to enhance photoluminescence from trion states observed at elevated temperatures up to at least 80 K. The luminescence quenching is mainly related to the promotion of holes to higher states in the valence band and this aspect must be primarily addressed in order to further increase the thermal stability of emission. Photon autocorrelation measurements yield single photon emission with a purity of $g_{50\mathrm{K}}^{(2)}\left(0\right)=0.13$ up to 50 K. Our results imply that these nanostructures are very promising candidates for single-photon sources at elevated temperatures in the telecom O-band and highlight means for improvements in their performance.

description: Here we will consider a function of κ-statistics, the κ-Weibull distribution, and compare it to the well-known Weibull distribution. The κ-Weibull will be also compared to the 3-parameter extended Weibull function, obtained according to the Marshall–Olkin extended distributions. The log-logistic distribution will be considered for comparison too, such as the exponentiated Weibull, the Burr and the q-Weibull distributions. The most important observation, coming from the proposed calculations, is that the κ-Weibull hazard function is strongly depending on the values of parameter κ, a parameter which is deeply influencing the behaviour of the tail of the probability distribution. As a consequence, the κ-Weibull function turns out to be quite relevant for generalizations of the Weibull approach to modeling failure times. Discussions about the Maximum Likelihood approach for Weibull, κ-Weibull and Burr distributions will be also given.

description: The frequent appearance of Cr(VI) significantly impacts the microbial metabolism in wastewater. In this study, long-term effects of Cr(VI) on microbial community, nitrogen removal pathways and mechanism of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) were investigated. AGS had strong resistance ability to 1.0 mg/L Cr(VI). 3.0 mg/L Cr(VI) increased the heterotrophic-specific ammonia uptake rate (HSAUR) and heterotrophic-specific nitrate uptake rate (HSNUR) transiently, whereas 5.0 mg/L Cr(VI) sharply decreased the specific ammonia uptake rate (SAUR), specific nitrate uptake rate (SNUR) and simultaneous nitrification denitrification rate (SNDR). It was found that Cr (VI) has a greater inhibitory effect on autotrophic nitrification (ASAUR), and the maximal inhibition rate (IR) was 139.19%. Besides, the inhibition of Cr (VI) on nitrogen removal process belongs to non-competitive inhibition. Cr(VI) had a weaker negative impact on heterotrophic bacteria compared with that on autotrophic bacteria. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analyses suggest that Acidovorax sp., flavobacterium sp., uncultured soil bacterium, uncultured nitrosospira sp., uncultured prokaryote, uncultured β-proteobacterium and uncultured pseudomonas sp. were the dominant species. The inhibition of Cr(VI) on nitrite-oxidizing bacteria was the strongest, followed by ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and denitrifying bacteria. Linear correlations between bacterial count and biomass-specific uptake rate were observed when the Cr(VI) concentration exceeded 3 mg/L. This study revealed the effect of Cr(VI) on nitrification is more serious than that on denitrification. Autotrophic and heterotrophic nitrification, heterotrophic denitrification and simultaneous nitrification denitrification played a significant role on nitrogen removal under Cr(VI) stress.

Entanglement-assisted quantum speedup: Beating local quantum speed limits

description: Research in quantum information science aims to surpass the scaling limitations of classical information processing. From a physicist's perspective, performance improvement involves a physical speedup in the quantum domain, achieved by dynamically exploiting quantum correlations. In this study, speed limits in interacting quantum systems are derived by comparing the rates of change in actual quantum dynamics with the quasi-classical evolution confined to the manifold of non-entangled separable states. The utility of the resulting bounds on entanglement-assisted speedup is demonstrated on bipartite qubit systems, bipartite qudit systems, as well as a complex multimode systems. Specifically, the proposed speed limits provide a tight bound on quantum speed advantage, including a quantum gain that can scale exponentially with the system's size. Extensions of the results to open systems and measurable witnesses are discussed.

Czachor, Arithmetic loophole in Bell's Theorem: Overlooked threat to entangled-state quantum cryptography, Acta Phys. Polon. A 139, 70-83 (2021), is shown to be a particular case of an infinite hierarchy of local hidden-variable models based on an infinite hierarchy of calculi. Violation of Bell-type inequalities is shown to be a `confusion of languages' problem, a result of mixing different but neighboring levels of the hierarchy. Mixing of non-neighboring levels results in violations beyond the Tsirelson bounds.

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 consider the integrable family of symmetric boundary-driven interacting particle systems that arise from the non-compact XXX Heisenberg model in one dimension with open boundaries. In contrast to the well-known symmetric exclusion process, the number of particles at each site is unbounded. We show that a finite chain of $N$ sites connected at its ends to two reservoirs can be solved exactly, i.e. the factorial moments of the non-equilibrium steady-state can be written in closed form for each $N$. The solution relies on probabilistic arguments and techniques inspired by integrable systems. It is obtained in two steps: i) the introduction of a dual absorbing process reducing the problem to a finite number of particles; ii) the solution of the dual dynamics exploiting a symmetry obtained from the Quantum Inverse Scattering Method. Long-range correlations are computed in the finite-volume system. The exact solution allows to prove by a direct computation that, in the thermodynamic limit, the system approaches local equilibrium. A by-product of the solution is the algebraic construction of a direct mapping between the non-equilibrium steady state and the equilibrium reversible measure.

description: A glycolamide-functionalized ionic liquid (G-FIL) was synthesized for the first time and was evaluated for the extraction of actinide ions such as Am3+, Pu4+ and UO22+ and fission product element ions such as Eu3+, Sr2+ and Cs+. The extraction of the trivalent metal ions was found to be exceptionally high at low acid concentrations, which rapidly decreased with increasing acidity. In view of the high viscosity of the G-FIL, the studies were carried out using its diluted solution in a commercial ionic liquid, viz. 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([C4mim][Tf2N]).

description: A central question in multi-agent strategic games deals with learning the underlying utilities driving the agents' behaviour. Motivated by the increasing availability of large data-sets, we develop an unifying data-driven technique to estimate agents' utility functions from their observed behaviour, irrespective of whether the observations correspond to equilibrium configurations or to temporal sequences of action profiles. Under standard assumptions on the parametrization of the utilities, the proposed inference method is computationally efficient and finds all the parameters that rationalize the observed behaviour best. We numerically validate our theoretical findings on the market share estimation problem under advertising competition, using historical data from the Coca-Cola Company and Pepsi Inc. duopoly.

description: We develop a general framework for distribution-free predictive inference in regression, using conformal inference. The proposed methodology allows for the construction of a prediction band for the response variable using any estimator of the regression function. The resulting prediction band preserves the consistency properties of the original estimator under standard assumptions, while guaranteeing finite-sample marginal coverage even when these assumptions do not hold. We analyze and compare, both empirically and theoretically, the two major variants of our conformal framework: full conformal inference and split conformal inference, along with a related jackknife method. These methods offer different tradeoffs between statistical accuracy (length of resulting prediction intervals) and computational efficiency. As extensions, we develop a method for constructing valid in-sample prediction intervals called rank-one-out conformal inference, which has essentially the same computational efficiency as split conformal inference. We also describe an extension of our procedures for producing prediction bands with locally varying length, to adapt to heteroscedasticity in the data. Finally, we propose a model-free notion of variable importance, called leave-one-covariate-out or LOCO inference. Accompanying this article is an R package conformalInference that implements all of the proposals we have introduced. In the spirit of reproducibility, all of our empirical results can also be easily (re)generated using this package.

description: We discuss a discretisation of the de Rham-Hodge theory in the two-dimensional case based on a discrete exterior calculus framework. We present discrete analogues of the Hodge-Dirac and Laplace operators in which key geometric aspects of the continuum counterpart are captured. We provide and prove a discrete version of the Hodge decomposition theorem. Special attention has been paid to discrete models on a combinatorial torus. In this particular case, we also define and calculate the cohomology groups.
