description: The pair $(G_H,\cdot)$ is called a special loop if $(G,\cdot)$ is a loop with an arbitrary subloop $(H,\cdot)$. A special loop $(G_H,\cdot)$ is called a second Smarandache Bol loop(S$_{2^{\tiny\textrm{nd}}}$BL) if and only if it obeys the second Smarandache Bol identity $(xs\cdot z)s=x(sz\cdot s)$ for all $x,z$ in $G$ and $s$ in $H$. The popularly known and well studied class of loops called Bol loops fall into this class and so S$_{2^{\tiny\textrm{nd}}}$BLs generalize Bol loops. The basic properties of S$_{2^{\tiny\textrm{nd}}}$BLs are studied. These properties are all Smarandache in nature. The results in this work generalize the basic properties of Bol loops, found in the Ph.D. thesis of D. A. Robinson. Some questions for further studies are raised.

Genomic characterization of urologic malignancies and the relevance of clonal hematopoiesis in liquid biopsies
Creators: name: Bacon, Jack Victor Warren

Year: 2023

description: Genomically-informed approaches to treatment selection, risk stratification, and disease prognostication are poised to transform clinical management of patients with cancer. Tissue biopsy and liquid biopsy each represent viable sources of genetic material for tumour assessment. Diagnostic tumour tissue is typically available for retrospective genomic analyses but limited in its ability to capture tumour heterogeneity. Plasma cell-free DNA from liquid biopsy enables convenient, minimally invasive genomic profiling but utility is affected by unpredictable levels of circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) and presence of non-malignant clonal expansions. In this thesis, custom sequencing and bioinformatic approaches were used to profile blood and tumour tissue from patients with urologic malignancies. In high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), patients are treated with bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG). Sequencing of tumour samples pre- and post-BCG revealed concordance among canonically early-arising events in chromatin-modifying genes and the TERT promoter. Receptor tyrosine kinase alterations were enriched pre-BCG, while TP53 alterations were enriched post-BCG; suggesting that archival tissue specimens may be ill-suited for assessing biomarker status in relapsed-disease. Pre-BCG ARID1A mutations and CCNE1 amplifications were associated with poor relapse-free survival. In metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), there are few molecular biomarkers for disease prognostication. Presence of ctDNA is associated with worse prognosis in several malignancies, but previously underexplored in mRCC. We detected ctDNA in a minority of patients with mRCC (33%) at lower levels than other urologic malignancies profiled using the same methodology. However, mRCC-derived ctDNA was prognostic for poor overall survival and progression-free survival. Non-cancer somatic alterations were frequently detected via liquid biopsy and attributed to clonal hematopoiesis (CH). CH features and clinical relevance in mRCC were explored further using a high-depth custom-targeted sequencing approach applied to a larger mRCC cohort. CH variants were detected in 68% of patients at VAF > 0.25% and 32% at VAF > 2%. Most alterations were detected in hematologic malignancy-associated genes, though several are also recurrent in solid tumours (i.e. TP53). Presence of CH >2% was associated with modestly reduced overall survival. This work affirms the relevance of genomic alterations in urologic malignancies and establishes frameworks for nuanced interpretation of genomic data from blood and tissue.

Relationship between the magnetic hyperfine field and the magnetic moment

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Based on experimental data it is shown, for some chosen alloys and compounds of iron, that there is no one unique relationship between the 57Fe-site magnetic hyperfine field, Bhf, and the magnetic moment per Fe atom, m. Instead, the Bhf-m plot consists of several branches, each of them being characteristic of a given alloy or compound. Consequently, the effective proportionality constant (hyperfine coupling constant) depends on the alloy system or compound, and for a given alloy system or compound it depends on the composition or even on the lattice site. Consequently, the scaling of Bhf into the underlying m cannot be done a priopri.
Magnetic anisotropy of singly Mn-doped InAs/GaAs quantum dots

description: We report on the micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy of InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QD) doped by a single Mn atom in a magnetic field either longitudinal or perpendicular to the optical axis. In both cases the spectral features of positive trion (X+) are found to split into strongly circularly polarized components, an effect very surprising in a perpendicular magnetic field. The field-induced splitting is ascribed to the transverse Zeeman splitting of the neutral acceptor complex A0 issued by the Mn impurity, whereas the circular optical selection rules result from the p-d exchange which acts as a very strong longitudinal magnetic field inhibiting the spin mixing by the transverse field of the QD heavy-hole ground state. A theoretical model of the spin interactions which includes (i) the local strain anisotropy experienced by the acceptor level and (ii) the anisotropic exchange due to the out-of-center Mn position provides a very good agreement with our observations.

Social behaviour of dairy cattle : inter-individual differences and implications for welfare
Creators: name: Nogues, Emeline
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Much recent research in the field of animal welfare science includes a focus on understanding individual variation in behaviour, rather than on group averages, and a growing body of literature is now describing stable individual differences in animal behaviour, also called personality traits and coping styles. The aim of my thesis was to explore the potential relationships between social behaviour, personality and coping style in dairy cattle. In Chapter 1, I give a general introduction to the concept of animal welfare and the context of my research. In Chapter 2, I provide a narrative review of social behaviour and individual differences in cattle in which I identify gaps in the literature that I address in the subsequent experimental chapters. Chapter 3 describes a study of indoor, group-housed cattle given the opportunity to access an outdoor bedded pack, such that individual cows could choose when to leave and to return. Some cows formed preferential associations (i.e., moved in and out of the barn together) indicating that a cows’ decision to move can be affected by others in their social group. In Chapter 4, I explored whether dairy calves benefit from the presence of a social partner during recovery from a painful procedure using a conditioned place avoidance paradigm. I found no evidence that the presence of a social partner affected avoidance; the social partner did not appear to provide a buffer for this experience. Calves varied greatly in their avoidance response, but this variation was not explained by differences in fearfulness. In Chapter 5, I characterized the coping strategy used by dairy heifers when introduced into a new social group and found that some heifers engaged in more agonistic interactions (consistent with a more proactive coping style), while others avoided their new pen mates (suggesting a reactive coping style). The strategy used affected their time-budget and behavioural synchronization with the new social group. Collectively, the results of my thesis provide new insights in how dairy cattle vary in their social behaviour when faced with three management practices: when offered outdoor access, when subjected to a routine painful procedure, and when regrouped.

description: The discovery of transiting extrasolar planets has enabled us a number of interesting stduies. Transit photometry reveals the radius and the orbital inclination of transiting planets, and thereby we can learn the true mass and the density of respective planets by the combined information of radial velocity measurements. In addition, follow-up observations of transiting planets such as secondary eclipse, transit timing variations, transmission spectroscopy, and the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect provide us information of their dayside temperature, unseen bodies in systems, planetary atmospheres, and obliquity of planetary orbits. Such observational information, which will provide us a greater understanding of extrasolar planets, is available only for transiting planets. Here I briefly summarize what we can learn from transiting planets and introduce previous studies.

description: We show by computer simulation of a two-dimensional crystal confined by corrugated walls that confinement can be used to impose a controllable mesoscopic superstructure of predominantly mechanical elastic character. Due to an interplay of the particle density of the system and the width D of the confining channel, "soliton staircases" can be created along both parallel confining boundaries, that give rise to standing strain waves in the entire crystal. The periodicity of these waves is of the same order as D. This mechanism should be useful for structure formation in the self-assembly of various nanoscopic materials.

description: Association models for a pair of random elements $X$ and $Y$ (e.g., vectors) are considered which specify the odds ratio function up to an unknown parameter $\boldsθ$. These models are shown to be semiparametric in the sense that they do not restrict the marginal distributions of $X$ and $Y$. Inference for the odds ratio parameter $\boldsθ$ may be obtained from sampling either $Y$ conditionally on $X$ or vice versa. Generalizing results from Prentice and Pyke, Weinberg and Wacholder and Scott and Wild, we show that asymptotic inference for $\boldsθ$ under sampling conditional on $Y$ is the same as if sampling had been conditional on $X$. Common regression models, for example, generalized linear models with canonical link or multivariate linear, respectively, logistic models, are association models where the regression parameter $\boldsβ$ is closely related to the odds ratio parameter $\boldsθ$. Hence inference for $\boldsβ$ may be drawn from samples conditional on $Y$ using an association model.

description: Quantum parameter estimation has many applications, from gravitational wave detection to quantum key distribution. We present the first experimental demonstration of the time-symmetric technique of quantum smoothing. We consider both adaptive and non-adaptive quantum smoothing, and show that both are better than their well-known time-asymmetric counterparts (quantum filtering). For the problem of estimating a stochastically varying phase shift on a coherent beam, our theory predicts that adaptive quantum smoothing (the best scheme) gives an estimate with a mean-square error up to $2\sqrt{2}$ times smaller than that from non-adaptive quantum filtering (the standard quantum limit). The experimentally measured improvement is $2.24 \pm 0.14$.

description: Talk given at Science Studies Colloquium, Aarhus University, online, 9 February 2022 Abstract. The quantification and oversimplification of academic success is harming scholarly communities in all disciplines. Scholarly metrics, such as the h-index or impact factor, are widely applied in academic tenure and funding decisions, but often inappropriately. This has created publication pressure, leading to a range of adverse effects and even scientific misconduct. To improve the understanding and appropriate use of scholarly metrics, the concept of metrics literacies has been proposed as an integrated set of competencies, dispositions, and knowledge that empower individuals to recognize, interpret, critically assess, and effectively and ethically use scholarly metrics. Attempts to address the lack of metrics literacies in the wider academic community, such as the Leiden Manifesto and The San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) or books such as Becoming Metric-Wise: A Bibliometric Guide for Researchers and Measuring Research are published as textual documents. As scholars are already overwhelmed by too much to read, the question arises why not to provide more efficient and effective multimedia open educational resources (OERs) instead of text? The Metrics Literacies project aims to aims to educate researchers and research administrators by developing, testing and disseminating educational videos to reduce the misuse of metrics in academia.

description: The BCS-BEC crossover and phase diagram for asymmetric nuclear superfluid with pairings in isospin I = 0 and I = 1 channels are investigated at mean field level, by using a density dependent nucleon-nucleon potential. Induced by the in-medium nucleon mass and density dependent coupling constants, neutron-proton Cooper pairs could be in BEC state at sufficiently low density, but there is no chance for the BEC formation of neutron-neutron and proton-proton pairs at any density and asymmetry. We calculate the phase diagram in asymmetry-temperature plane for weakly interacting nuclear superfluid, and find that including the I = 1 channel changes significantly the phase structure at low temperature. There appears a new phase with both I = 0 and I = 1 pairings at low temperature and low asymmetry, and the gapless state in any phase with I = 1 pairing is washed out and all excited nucleons are fully gapped.

Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)

description: We construct a semi-microscopic theory, to describe the optical conductivity of GaMnAs in the dilute limit, x = 1%. We construct an effective Hamiltonian that captures inside-impurity band optical transitions as well as transitions between the valence band and the impurity band. All parameters of the Hamiltonian are computed from microscopic variational calculations. We find a metal-insulator transition within the impurity band in the concentration range, x = 0.2 -0.3 for uncompensated and x = 1-3% for compensated samples, in good agreement with the experiments. We find an optical mass m_opt = m_e, which is almost independent of the impurity concentration excepting in the vicinity of the metal-insulator transition, where it reaches values as large as m_opt = 10 m_e. We also reproduce a mid-infrared peak at \hbar ω= 200 meV, which redshifts upon doping, in quantitative agreement with the experiments.

description: Given a spacelike 2-surface $Σ$ in a spacetime $N$ and a constant future timelike unit vector $T_0 $ in $\R^{3,1}$, we derive upper and lower estimates of Wang-Yau quasilocal energy $E(Σ, X, T_0)$ for a given isometric embedding $X$ of $Σ$ into a flat 3-slice in $\R^{3,1}$. The quantity $ E(Σ, X, T_0) $ itself depends on the choice of $X$, however the infimum of $ E(Σ, X, T_0)$ over $ T_0 $ does not. In particular, when $Σ$ lies in a time symmetric 3-slice in $N$ and has nonnegative Brown-York quasilocal mass $\mby(Σ)$, our estimates show that $\inf\limits_{T_0}E(Σ, X, T_0)$ equals $ \mby (Σ)$. We also study the spatial limit of $ \inf\limits_{T_0}E(S_r,X_r,T_0)$, where $S_r$ is a large coordinate sphere in a fixed end of an asymptotically flat initial data set $(M, g, p)$ and $X_r$ is an isometric embeddings of $S_r$ into $\mathbb{R}^3 \subset \mathbb{R}^{3,1}$. We show that if $(M, g, p)$ has future timelike ADM energy-momentum, then $\lim\limits_{r\to\infty}\inf\limits_{T_0}E(S_r,X_r,T_0)$ equals the ADM mass of $(M, g, p)$.

description: We calculate the relaxational dynamical critical behavior of systems of $O(n_\|)\oplus O(n_\perp)$ symmetry including conservation of magnetization by renormalization group (RG) theory within the minimal subtraction scheme in two loop order. Within the stability region of the Heisenberg fixed point and the biconical fixed point strong dynamical scaling holds with the asymptotic dynamical critical exponent $z=2ϕ/ν-1$ where $ϕ$ is the crossover exponent and $ν$ the exponent of the correlation length. The critical dynamics at $n_\|=1$ and $n_\perp=2$ is governed by a small dynamical transient exponent leading to nonuniversal nonasymptotic dynamical behavior. This may be seen e.g. in the temperature dependence of the magnetic transport coefficients.

In this work, we studied the $B_c \to PP, PV/VP,VV$ decays by employing the perturbative QCD (pQCD) factorization approach. From our calculations, we find that (a) the pQCD predictions for the branching ratios of the considered $B_c$ decays are in the range of $10^{-6}$ to $10^{-8}$; (b) for $B_c \to PV/VP, VV$ decays, the branching ratios of $ΔS= 0$ decays are much larger than those of $ΔS =1$ ones because the different Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa(CKM) factors are involved; (c) analogous to $B \to K η^{(\prime)}$ decays, we find $Br(B_c \to K^+ η^\prime) \sim 10 \times Br(B_c \to K^+ η)$, which can be understood by the destructive and constructive interference between the $η_q$ and $η_s$ contribution to the $B_c \to K^+ η$ and $B_c \to K^+ η^\prime$ decay; (d) the longitudinal polarization fractions of $B_c \to VV$ decays are in the range of $86%-95%$ and play the dominant role; and (e) there is no CP-violating asymmetries for the considered $B_c$ decays because only one type tree operators involved.

description: We derive the plasmon dispersion in doped double layer graphene (DLG), made of two parallel graphene mono-layers with carrier densities $n_1$ and $n_2$ respectively, and an inter-layer separation of $d$. The linear chiral gapless single particle energy dispersion of graphene leads to exotic DLG plasmon properties with several unexpected experimentally observable characteristic features such as a nontrivial influence of an undoped ($n_2=0$) layer on the DLG plasmon dispersion and a strange influence of the second layer even in the weak-coupling $d\to 0$ limit. Our predicted exotic DLG plasmon properties clearly distinguish graphene from the extensively studied usual parabolic 2D electron systems.

description: We study the dynamics of priority-queue networks, generalizations of the binary interacting priority queue model introduced by Oliveira and Vazquez [Physica A {\bf 388}, 187 (2009)]. We found that the original AND-type protocol for interacting tasks is not scalable for the queue networks with loops because the dynamics becomes frozen due to the priority conflicts. We then consider a scalable interaction protocol, an OR-type one, and examine the effects of the network topology and the number of queues on the waiting time distributions of the priority-queue networks, finding that they exhibit power-law tails in all cases considered, yet with model-dependent power-law exponents. We also show that the synchronicity in task executions, giving rise to priority conflicts in the priority-queue networks, is a relevant factor in the queue dynamics that can change the power-law exponent of the waiting time distribution.

title: Essays on the economics of climate change, international trade, and meat consumption
Creators: name: Cass, Leanne
Publisher: name: London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
Year: 2025

description: This thesis is composed of four environmental economics essays spanning the topics of climate change, international trade, and meat consumption. The first two chapters bring together approaches from the fields of international trade and climate econometrics. Using reduced-form empirical methods informed by theory, they investigate how international trade and weather shocks interact to affect economic outcomes. Chapter 1 estimates the impact of weather shocks on export sales relative to domestic market sales, finding that in the agricultural sector temperature shocks create additional barriers to international trade, as do precipitation shocks for the manufacturing sector in rainy countries. Chapter 2 examines the historical role of trade openness in the effect of temperature shocks on growth, finding some support for the hypothesis that connectedness to international markets may help to mitigate the impact of temperature shocks on economic growth. Chapter 3 continues the focus on international trade but shifts towards the topic of reduced meat consumption. Using insights from a structural gravity model for international trade, this paper explores how the impact of a tax on meat consumption in the EU can reach beyond borders and generate market signals via international trade mechanisms that undermine (to some degree) the aim of mitigating carbon emissions. Chapter 4 continues the theme of meat consumption but departs from the international trade perspective and instead focuses to the US market. Using granular data on households and stores, this paper interrogates popular stories about plant-based meat substitute products, finding that they remain a niche market and so far have shown limited potential for decarbonizing the food sector. This analysis highlights the potential need for policy intervention to spur demand growth and innovation in this product space. Overall, this thesis contributes to broadening our understanding of the challenges posed by climate change and climate policymaking.

title: Coordinate-Descent Augmented Lagrangian Methods for Interpretative and Adaptive Model Predictive Control
Creators: name: Wu, Liang
Publisher: name: IMT Alti Studi Lucca
Year: 2023

description: Model predictive control (MPC) of nonlinear systems suffers

a trade-off between model accuracy and real-time compu-
tational burden. This thesis presents an interpretative and

adaptive MPC (IA-MPC) framework for nonlinear systems,
which is related to the widely used approximation method
based on successive linearization MPC and Extended Kalman

Filtering (SL-MPC-EKF). First, we introduce a solution algo-
rithm for linear MPC that is based on the combination of Co-
ordinate Descent and Augmented Lagrangian (CDAL) ideas.

The CDAL algorithm enjoys three features: (i) it is construction-
free, in that it avoids explicitly constructing the quadratic pro-
gramming (QP) problem associated with MPC; (ii) is matrix-
free, as it avoids multiplications and factorizations of matri-
ces; and (iii) is library-free, as it can be simply coded without

any library dependency, 90-lines of C-code in our implemen-
tation. We specialize the algorithm for both state-space for-
mulations of MPC and formulations based on AutoRegres-
sive with eXogenous terms models (CDAL-ARX). The the-
sis also presents a rapid-prototype MPC tool based on the

gPROMS platform, in which the qpOASES and CDAL algo-
rithm was integrated. In addition, based on an equivalence

between SS-based and ARX-based MPC problems we show,
we investigate the relation between the proposed IA-MPC
and the classical SL-MPC-EKF method. Finally, we test and
show the effectiveness of the proposed IA-MPC framework
on four typical nonlinear MPC benchmark examples.
At the shore : everyday anti-violences and the practice of queer creation in Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg territory
Creators: name: Whetung, Madeline
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: This dissertation asks: how do we build a world whose foundations are accountability to one another, and end violence in all its forms? Drawing upon Nishnaabeg stories, and my own embodied knowledge gained through living and participating in community within Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg territory, interviews with fellow self-identified queer people who share the territory, the embodied processes of birth and family building in a queer inter-racial and inter-cultural relationship, and the teachings of shorelines, I propose a guiding ethic that builds a world oriented towards creation. The first chapter charts my journey to and through this research, traces the methodology and methods used, and offers context for theorizations within and outside the academy. Chapter Two returns to Nishnaabeg territory to explicate the conceptual guidance offered by shorelines as an ecosystem and relational space between us and others. In Chapter Three, I examine the concept of creation through the Nishnaabeg creation story and my own embodied learnings in and through creation. In the final chapter, I examine embodied practices across scales, considering the ways that these practices engage us in creating the worlds that we want to build, and the types of values that can be embodied in building a world without violence.

description: The high reset current, IR, in unipolar resistance switching is an important issue which should be resolved for practical applications in nonvolatile memories. We showed that,during the forming and set processes, the compliance current, Icomp, can work as a crucial parameter to reduce IR. Doping with Co or Mn can significantly reduce the leakage current in capacitors made using SrTiOx film, opening a larger operation window for Icomp. By decreasing Icomp with acceptor doping, we could reduce IR in SrTiOx films by a factor of approximately 20. Our work suggests that the decrease of Icomp by carrier doping could be a viable alternative for reducing IR in unipolar resistance switching.

description: Using Spitzer-IRS spectroscopy, we investigate the ubiquity of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) in a complete (~94%), volume-limited sample of the most bolometrically-luminous galaxies (L_IR > (0.3-20) x 10^10 L_sun) to D < 15 Mpc. Our analyses are based on the detection of the high-excitation emission line [NeV](λ14.32 um; 97.1 eV) to unambiguously identify AGN activity. We find that 17 of the 64 IR-bright galaxies in our sample host AGN activity (~27^{+8}_{-6}%), >50% of which are not identified as AGNs using optical spectroscopy. The large AGN fraction indicates a tighter connection between AGN activity and IR luminosity for galaxies in the local Universe than previously found, potentially indicating a close association between AGN activity and star formation. The optically unidentified AGNs span a wide range of galaxy type (S0-Ir) and are typically starburst-dominated systems hosting modest-luminosity AGN activity (L_[NeV] ~ 10^37 - 10^39 erg s^-1). The non-identification of optical AGN signatures in the majority of these galaxies appears to be due to extinction towards the AGN, rather than intrinsically low-luminosity AGN activity. Examination of optical images shows that the optically unidentified AGNs with evidence for extinction are hosted in either highly inclined galaxies or galaxies with dust lanes, indicating that obscuration of the AGN is not necessarily due to an obscuring torus. We therefore conclude that optical spectroscopic surveys miss approximately half of the AGN population simply due to extinction through the host galaxy.

description: We report a correlation between the spin polarization of the tunneling electrons (TSP) and the magnetic moment of amorphous CoFeB alloys. Such a correlation is surprising since the TSP involves s-like electrons close to the Fermi level (EF), while the magnetic moment mainly arises due to all d-electrons below EF. We show that probing the s and d-bands individually provides clear and crucial evidence for such a correlation to exist through s-d hybridization, and demonstrate the tuneability of the electronic and magnetic properties of CoFeB alloys.

Simulating chromoanagenesis for tool development and testing
Creators: name: Jenkins, Kyle Leu
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The human genome is large and complex. Variations in the genome of an organism can have drastic health implications from cancer to constitutional disease. Most variants involve changes of just one or a few nucleotides, but differences like structural variants can cause significant changes to larger sections of the genome. One rare group of structural variants is chromoanagenesis, where a catastrophic rearrangement of a large section of the genome occurs during a single event. Whereas simpler events involve one or a few breakpoints and may result in localized duplications, inversions, or deletions of genetic fragments within a section of the genome, a single chromoanagenesis event can have hundreds of breakpoints where each broken segment of the chromosome may be unchanged, inverted, duplicated, or deleted in whole or in part before the pieces reassemble in a different order. Chromoanagenesis has most often been described in cancer among other signs of genomic instability, but there have been cases of such events in patients with other diseases as well. Because of the complexity of chromoanagenesis and the genomic context it is often found in, getting accurate sequence-level characterization of cases has been difficult. Developing bioinformatics tools to detect and fully resolve chromoanagenesis in sequence data sets is challenging and expensive, with new technologies providing new avenues of detection but posing different difficulties to resolve. In this thesis, I report Muddler, a simulator I have developed for chromoanagenesis events that can be used with various available software tools to produce data sets that resemble those obtained with different genomic technologies (Next Generation Sequencing, Optical Maps, etc.). These simulated datasets can then be evaluated with sequence analysis tools to understand the strengths and limitations of genomic technologies and new software for characterizing chromoanagenesis and to assist in the development of better tools for this purpose. The method for generating simulated data is presented along with five complex simulated events and their analysis using technology-specific analytical tools/pipelines. To illustrate the utility of Muddler in the use cases provided, each simulated event has at least 150 breakpoints and around 100 combined duplications or deletions.
