description: The future Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will consist of several tens of telescopes of different mirror sizes. CTA will provide next generation sensitivity to very high energy photons from few tens of GeV to >100 TeV. Several focal plane instrumentation options are currently being evaluated inside the CTA consortium. In this paper, the current status of the FlashCam prototyping project is described. FlashCam is based on a fully digital camera readout concept and features a clean separation between photon detector plane and signal digitization/triggering electronics.

description: Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group. A closed subgroup $H$ of $G$ is called spherical provided it has a dense orbit on the flag variety $G/B$ of $G$. Reductive spherical subgroups of simple Lie groups were classified by Krämer in 1979. In 1997, Brundan showed that each example from Krämer's list also gives rise to a spherical subgroup in the corresponding simple algebraic group in any positive characteristic. Nevertheless, there is no classification of all such instances in positive characteristic to date. The goal of this paper is to complete this classification. It turns out that there is only one additional instance (up to isogeny) in characteristic $2$ which has no counterpart in Krämer's classification. As one of our key tools, we prove a general deformation result for subgroup schemes allowing us to deduce the sphericality of subgroups in positive characteristic from this property for subgroups in characteristic $0$.

description: Neste capítulo apresenta-se um conjunto de propostas didáticas que foram construídas no âmbito da prática pedagógica supervisionada do Mestrado em Ensino do 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico e de Matemática e Ciências Naturais no 2.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico (CEB). Considerou-se que a utilização de sensores de dióxido de carbono pode constituir uma estratégia facilitadora da compreensão, por parte dos/as alunos/ as do ensino básico, do papel daquele gás em diferentes fenómenos (como as combustões, a respiração celular e a fotossíntese), assim como da relação destes fenómenos com a qualidade do ar interior e exterior e as alterações climáticas. As propostas de trabalho foram elaboradas e desenvolvidas para aulas de Ciências Naturais de 5º e 6º ano. Em cada proposta são apresentados os objetivos, os conteúdos, as atividades, os recursos e avaliação. Através da triangulação de dados, obtidos pela observação e análise das produções dos/as alunos/as, avaliou-se a eficácia das propostas, tendo sido constatado o reconhecimento, pelos/ as alunos/as: i) das combustões como fontes de dióxido de carbono para o ar, contribuindo para a diminuição da sua qualidade; ii) da contribuição do ar expirado para a baixa qualidade do ar das salas de aula, quando não ventiladas. Constatou-se ainda que a utilização do sensor de dióxido de carbono decorreu sem dificuldades técnicas e contribuiu para aprendizagens matemáticas, nomeadamente da leitura de diferentes representações de dados e de significação das grandezas e valores monitorizados. A utilização do sensor de dióxido de carbono, para exploração de ambientes bem conhecidos das crianças, situou e contextualizou as aprendizagens, diminuindo o nível de abstração das mesmas e aumentando o interesse e participação dos/as alunos/as em Saúde Ambiental e na aprendizagem da Ciência e da Tecnologia

description: The linear optical absorption spectra of three isomers of planar boron cluster B$_{13}$ are calculated using time-dependent spin-polarized density functional approach. The geometries of these cluster are optimized at the B3LYP/6-311+G* level of theory. Even though the isomers are almost degenerate, the calculated spectra are quite different, indicating a strong structure-property relationship. Therefore, these computed spectra can be used in the photo-absorption experiments to distinguish between different isomers of a cluster.

Societal Opinon of Government and Private Agencies' Surveillance Capabilities Post 9-11
Creators: name: Kaplan, Stephanie E.
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2017

description: Since the September 11, 2001 attacks, the United States has placed an increased focus upon government and private agencies to engage in surveillance practices in order to combat terrorism. The passing of the United States PATRIOT ACT (2001) expanded the surveillance capabilities of law enforcement officials thus allowing both federal and state agencies to legally wiretap a range of communication devices. Under the justification of "fighting terrorism," federal and state agencies now have more access to sensitive data on/about a range of persons including subjects of interest. Legal scholars (Bam, 2015, as well as the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), have questioned the constitutionality of the advancement of surveillance practices in government agencies including the role private agencies play in assisting federal agencies in criminal investigations. Even so, research dedicated to how the public understands the expansion of state and federal surveillance capabilities, and connections to private entities, is under studied.
Using the Globalization of Personal Data (GPD) survey questionnaire from Surveillance, Privacy, and the Globalization of Personal Information by Elia Zureik, the goal of this research project is to identify how individuals in the United States perceive the transfer of their personal data between government and private agencies. Through non-probability online quota sampling methods (Singleton and Straits, 2005), responses from participants stratified into five different racial stratums are analyzed and used to examine the extent to which citizens in the United States are either concerned or unconcerned about surveillance practices used by government (state and federal) and private agencies. In order to examine the impact that levels of knowledge and awareness of current surveillance technology and legislative policies has on citizens' concerns, this research project also seeks to examine important socio-demographic differences between respondents. Ultimately, this research represents an attempt to establish a dialogue for future policy makers discussing how citizens perceive the "dataveillance" capabilities of government and private agencies, and whether current legislation goes far enough to protect citizens from unreasonable government intrusions.

title: Electron Monte Carlo Dose Calculation Model Dependency on Optional Applicator Specific 1D Profiles
Creators: name: Sharp, Ryan
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: The accuracy of a calculated dose distribution compared to the actual dose administered to a patient undergoing electron radiation treatment is dependent upon the configured electron dose calculation algorithm in the treatment planning system (TPS). Configuration of the electron Monte Carlo (eMC) algorithm in the Eclipse TPS requires a variety of beam scan data. One of the required data sets is the inclusion of optional in air crossplane (CP) and inplane (IP) profiles. It is unknown if the inclusion of the optional profiles into the eMC algorithm greatly influences the output of the TPS. Two eMC algorithms were configured in Eclipse: one with the optional in air profiles and one without. CP and IP profiles of each algorithm were calculated to a statistical uncertainty of 2% and were compared to the measured data profiles at ���� for all energy and applicator combinations using gamma analysis. The greatest differences in passing rates and average gamma for the CP and IP profile comparisons corresponded to the IP profiles due to the without optional algorithm having zero data on the electron fluence in the IP. Clinical comparisons were made by defining circular targets at ���� for various energy and applicator combinations. The greatest dose difference from all clinical comparisons made was 2.55% between the two algorithms. It is recommended that extra time should be allotted when commissioning to acquire the optional in air profiles to configure the eMC algorithm which allows for greater accuracy when calculating dose distributions.

Identifying Youth at Risk for Problematic Absenteeism Using Nonparametric Modeling: The Impact of Youth Psychopathology and Family Environment Risk Factors
Creators: name: Fornander, Mirae
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2018

description: The best cutoff to differentiate problematic school absenteeism from nonproblematic school absenteeism has yet to be identified in the literature (Lyon & Cotler, 2007). Contemporary classification systems, including Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS), depend upon cutoffs to clearly define the various tiers (Jimerson, Burns, & VanDerHeyden, 2016). The current study aimed to inform the MTSS approach while also contributing to early identification, assessment, and intervention methods for those youth and families at the highest risk of problematic school absenteeism and its negative consequences. The current study identified subgroups of youth at the highest risk of problematic absenteeism, defined as equal to or greater than 1% of full days missed and equal to or greater than 10% of full school days missed cutoffs (Egger et al., 2003; NCES, 2016). Interactions among family environment and youth psychopathology risk factors were evaluated at each cutoff. Participants included 378 elementary, middle, and high school students and their families from clinic and community settings. The current study utilized nonparametric Classification and Regression Tree (CART) procedures via SPSS decision tree software. CART's procedures are meant for generating hypotheses and not testing hypotheses (Markham, Young, & Doran, 2013). Therefore, hypotheses provided were based on the extensive literature base of problematic school absenteeism risk factors. Hypothesis one was that Family Environment Scale (FES) items addressing family conflict were expected to be the most important FES items to the model while independence items were expected to be the second most important. Hypothesis two was that Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale (RCADS) items addressing generalized anxiety were expected to be the most important RCADS items to the model while major depression items were expected to be the second most important. Post-hoc analyses were also conducted to explore additional cutoff scores (i.e.,

Probing dark energy and neutrino mass from upcoming lensing experiments of CMB and galaxies

description: We discuss the synergy of the cosmic shear and CMB lensing experiments to simultaneously constrain the neutrino mass and dark energy properties. Taking fully account of the CMB lensing, cosmic shear, CMB anisotropies, and their cross correlation signals, we clarify a role of each signal, and investigate the extent to which the upcoming observations by a high-angular resolution experiment of CMB and deep galaxy imaging survey can tightly constrain the neutrino mass and dark energy equation-of-state parameters. Including the primary CMB information as a prior cosmological information, the Fisher analysis reveals that the time varying equation-of-state parameters, given by w(a)=w_0+w_a(1-a), can be tightly constrained with the accuracies of 5% for w_0 and 15% for w_a, which are comparable to or even better than those of the stage-III type surveys neglecting the effect of massive neutrinos. In other words, including the neutrino mass in the parameter estimation would not drastically alter the Figure-of-Merit estimates of dark energy parameters from the weak lensing measurements. For the neutrino mass, a clear signal for total neutrino mass with 0.1 eV can be detected with 2-sigma significance. The robustness and sensitivity of these results are checked in detail by allowing the setup of cosmic shear experiment to vary as a function of observation time or exposure time, showing that the improvement of the constraints very weakly depends on the survey parameters, and the results mentioned above are nearly optimal for the dark energy parameters and the neutrino mass.

description: The so--called subgroup commutativity degree $sd(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the number of permuting subgroups $(H,K) \in \mathrm{L}(G) \times \mathrm{L}(G)$, where $\mathrm{L}(G)$ is the subgroup lattice of $G$, divided by $|\mathrm{L}(G)|^2$. It allows us to measure how $G$ is far from the celebrated classification of quasihamiltonian groups of K. Iwasawa. Here we generalize $sd(G)$, looking at suitable sublattices of $\mathrm{L}(G)$, and show some new lower bounds.

description: For a smooth algebraic curve X over a field, applying H_1 to the Abel map X -> Pic (X/\partial X) to the Picard scheme of X modulo its boundary realizes the Poincaré duality isomorphism H_1(X, Z/ n) -> H^1(X/ \partial X, Z/n(1)) = H^1_c(X, Z/n(1)). We show the analogous statement for the Abel map X/\partial X -> Picbar (X/\partial X) to the compactified Picard, or Jacobian, scheme, namely this map realizes the Poincaré duality isomorphism H_1(X/ \partial X, Z/n) -> H^1(X, Z/n(1)). In particular, H_1 of this Abel map is an isomorphism. In proving this result, we prove some results about Picbar that are of independent interest. The singular curve X/\partial X has a unique singularity that is an ordinary fold point, and we describe the compactified Picard scheme of such a curve up to universal homeomorphism using a presentation scheme. We construct a Mayer-Vietoris sequence for certain push-outs of schemes, and an isomorphism of functors π_1^{ell} Pic^0(-) = H^1(-,Z_ell(1)).

description: Quantum correlations may be measured by means of the distance of the state to the subclass of states $Ω$ having well defined classical properties. In particular, a geometric measure of asymmetric discord [Dakic et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 190502 (2010)] was recently defined as the Hilbert-Schmidt distance of a given two-qubit state to the closest classical-quantum (CQ) correlated state. We analyze a geometric measure of symmetric discord defined as the Hilbert-Schmidt distance of a given state to the closest classical-classical (CC) correlated state. The optimal member of $Ω$ is just specially measured original state both for the CQ and CC discords. This implies that this measure is equal to quantum deficit of post-measurement purity. We discuss some general relations between the CC discords and explain why an analytical formula for the CC discord, contrary to the CQ discord, can hardly be found even for a general two-qubit state. Instead of such exact formula, we find simple analytical measurement-based upper bounds for the CC discord which, as we show, are very efficient in the case of two qubits and may serve as independent indicators of two-party quantum correlations. In particular, we propose an adaptive upper bound, which corresponds to the optimal states induced by single-party measurements: optimal measurement on one of the parties determines an optimal measurement on the other party. We discuss how to refine the adaptive upper bound by nonoptimal single-party measurements and by an iterative procedure which usually rapidly converges to the CC discord. We also raise the question of optimality of the symmetric measurements realising the CC discord on symmetric states, and give partial answer for the qubit case.

A Discrete Adapted Hierarchical Basis Solver For Radial Basis Function Interpolation

Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)

description: In this paper we develop a discrete Hierarchical Basis (HB) to efficiently solve the Radial Basis Function (RBF) interpolation problem with variable polynomial order. The HB forms an orthogonal set and is adapted to the kernel seed function and the placement of the interpolation nodes. Moreover, this basis is orthogonal to a set of polynomials up to a given order defined on the interpolating nodes. We are thus able to decouple the RBF interpolation problem for any order of the polynomial interpolation and solve it in two steps: (1) The polynomial orthogonal RBF interpolation problem is efficiently solved in the transformed HB basis with a GMRES iteration and a diagonal, or block SSOR preconditioner. (2) The residual is then projected onto an orthonormal polynomial basis. We apply our approach on several test cases to study its effectiveness, including an application to the Best Linear Unbiased Estimator regression problem.

description: We investigate the effect of the environment on the Faber Jackson (FJ) relation, using a sample of 384 nearby elliptical galaxies and estimating objectively their environment on the typical scale of galaxy clusters. We show that the intrinsic scatter of the FJ is significantly reduced when ellipticals in high density environments are compared to ellipticals in low density ones. This result, which holds on a limited range of overdensities, is likely to provide an important observational link between scaling relations and formation mechanisms in galaxies.

description: We present a new symmetry-based concept for an achromatic low-beta collider interaction region design. A specially-designed symmetric Chromaticity Compensation Block (CCB) induces an angle spread in the passing beam such that it cancels the chromatic kick of the final focusing quadrupoles. Two such CCBs placed symmetrically around an interaction point allow simultaneous compensation of the 1st-order chromaticities and chromatic beam smear at the IP without inducing significant 2nd-order aberrations to the particle trajectory. We first develop an analytic description of this approach and explicitly formulate 2nd-order aberration compensation conditions at the interaction point. The concept is next applied to develop an interaction region design for the ion collider ring of an electron-ion collider. We numerically evaluate performance of the design in terms of momentum acceptance and dynamic aperture. The advantages of the new concept are illustrated by comparing it to the conventional distributed-sextupole chromaticity compensation scheme.

description: Dúngal's letter to Charlemagne on the double solar eclipse in the year 810 is extremely interesting both for its form and for its subject matter. Part I of the present study deals with the epistula as a literary work (genre, language, sources), dealing in turn with vocabulary, morphology and syntax, rythmical prose and rhetorical figures, literary and Biblical references. If we compare it with Dúngal's other works, the letter is cast in the canonical oratio structure similar to his later Responsa contra Claudium (ed. Zanna, Firenze 2002) and it is likewise based on lengthy quotations drawns from Macrobius' commentary In Somnium Scipionis. A possible echo of Vitruvius' astronomical presentation in book IX of his De architectura is suggested. Finally, we attempt to define how the author's persona as famulus et orator and reclusus at St-Denis relates to Charlemagne and to abbot Waldo in his pursuit of Chirstian wisdom based on the Bible rahter than of scholarship per se based on academic research. Part II is a thorough technical discussion of the astronomical issue presented to the Irish scholar by the Emperor, i.e. The frequency of solar eclipses and their visibility in the two emispheres in the year 810 (see maps provided). It assesses Dúngal's case in terms of eclipse theory and reviews previous comments on his letter to Charlemagne by astronomer Ismael Bullialdus (1605-1694). It also introduces us to first-hand knowledge of eclipses in history and nowadays, providing a glimpse into the complex problems tackled by the Irishman and his sources in Late Antique and in the Early Middle Ages. Ample footnotes to the Italian translation of Dúngal's work are an essential guiding tool for Latinists unfamiliar with astronomy.

description: Quasi-Stationary States of long-range interacting systems have been studied at length over the last fifteen years. It is known that the collisional terms of the Balescu-Lenard and Landau equations vanish for one-dimensional systems in homogeneous states, thus requiring a new kinetic equation with a proper dependence on the number of particles. Here we show that previous scalings described in the literature are due either to small size effects or the use of improper variables to describe the dynamics. The correct scaling is proportional to the square of the number of particles and deduce the kinetic equation valid for the homogeneous regime and numerical evidence is given for the Hamiltonian Mean Field and ring models.

description: In this paper we use a splitting technique to develop new multiscale basis functions for the multiscale finite element method (MsFEM). The multiscale basis functions are iteratively generated using a Green's kernel. The Green's kernel is based on the first differential operator of the splitting. The proposed MsFEM is applied to deterministic elliptic equations and stochastic elliptic equations, and we show that the proposed MsFEM can considerably reduce the dimension of the random parameter space for stochastic problems. By combining the method with sparse grid collocation methods, the need for a prohibitive number of deterministic solves is alleviated. We rigorously analyze the convergence of the proposed method for both the deterministic and stochastic elliptic equations. Computational complexity discussions are also offered to supplement the convergence analysis. A number of numerical results are presented to confirm the theoretical findings.

description: A Lie algebra $L$ of dimension $n \ge1 $ may be classified, looking for restrictions of the size on its second integral homology Lie algebra $H_2(L,\mathbb{Z})$, denoted by $M(L)$ and often called Schur multiplier of $L$. In case $L$ is nilpotent, we proved that $\mathrm{dim} \ M(L) \leq \frac{1}{2}(n+m-2)(n-m-1)+1$, where $\mathrm{dim} \ L^2=m \ge 1$, and worked on this bound under various perspectives. In the present paper, we estimate the previous bound for $\mathrm{dim} \ M(L) $ with respect to other inequalities of the same nature. Finally, we provide new upper bounds for the Schur multipliers of pairs and triples of nilpotent Lie algebras, by means of certain exact sequences due to Ganea and Stallings in their original form.

description: This work considers the problem of numerically approximating statistical moments of a Quantity of Interest (QoI) that depends on the solution of a linear parabolic partial differential equation. The geometry is assumed to be random and is parameterized by $N$ random variables. The parabolic problem is remapped to a fixed deterministic domain with random coefficients and shown to admit an extension on a well defined region embedded in the complex hyperplane. A Stochastic collocation method with an isotropic Smolyak sparse grid is used to compute the statistical moments of the QoI. In addition, convergence rates for the stochastic moments are derived and compared to numerical experiments.

description: The Gottesman-Knill theorem allows for the efficient simulation of stabilizer-based quantum error-correction circuits. Errors in these circuits are commonly modeled as depolarizing channels by using Monte Carlo methods to insert Pauli gates randomly throughout the circuit. Although convenient, these channels are poor approximations of common, realistic channels like amplitude damping. Here we analyze a larger set of efficiently simulable error channels by allowing the random insertion of any one-qubit gate or measurement that can be efficiently simulated within the stabilizer formalism. Our new error channels are shown to be a viable method for accurately approximating real error channels.

title: DYNAMIC BALANCING OF FORAGING AND DEFENSIVE EFFORT CONTRIBUTE TO THE OPTIMALITY OF THE HONEY BEE ROBBING STRATEGY
Creators: name: Grume, Grayson James
Publisher: name: University of Kentucky Libraries
Year: 2020

description: The optimality of a foraging strategy shifts in response to dynamic ecological conditions and the need to devote effort to other tasks. Nest defense and foraging effort in the honey bee may trade off as both tasks are performed by a shared workforce of physiologically-specialized individuals in exclusive roles. Honey robbing is a foraging strategy predicted to benefit from simultaneous increases in foraging and defensive effort, but may be constrained by workforce specialization. We developed a methodology to induce robbing behaviors with uninhabited bait hives. We used this methodology to evaluate foraging and defensive effort before and during robbing by measuring forager activity and guard defensive behavior. We then assessed three cues as potential indicators guards use to determine colony robbing status. We assessed changes in identifying odor through laboratory assays of comb exposure, robber behavior through a genomic analysis of aggression biomarker genes, and field studies of the correlation between forager activity and guard defensiveness. Our results indicate colonies can simultaneously increase defensive and foraging effort when participating in robbing. We determine guards likely respond to multiple cues, with strong evidence for robbing nestmate behavior and some evidence for forager activity as signals. These results show colonies are able to dynamically balance the trade-offs of worker specialization to facilitate optimal foraging through complex social cues.

description: We contribute to an original problem studied by Hamilton and others, in order to understand the behaviour of maximal solutions of the Ricci flow both in compact and non-compact complete orientable Riemannian manifolds of finite volume. The case of dimension two has peculiarities, which force us to use different ideas from the corresponding higher dimensional case. We show the existence of connected regions with a connected complementary set (the so-called "separating regions"). In dimension higher than two, the associated problem of minimization is reduced to an auxiliary problem for the isoperimetric profile. This is possible via an argument of compactness in geometric measure theory. Indeed we develop a definitive theory, which allows us to circumvent the shortening curve flow approach of previous authors at the cost of some applications of geometric measure theory and Ascoli-Arzela's Theorem.

description: In this work we focus our attention in the inconsistency that appears when the Semi-Exact Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation for the Dirac field interacting with space-time torsion field is performed. In order to solve this problem, we present a new involution operator that makes possible to perform the exact transformation when torsion field is present. Such operator has a structure, well known in the literature, composed of the product of an operator that acts in the matrices space and another one that acts in the function space. We also present the bound state of this theory and discuss the possible experimental analysis.
Spin superfluidity, coherent spin precession, and magnon BEC

description: Spin superfluidity, coherent spin precession, and magnon BEC are intensively investigated theoretically and experimentally nowadays. Meanwhile, clear definition and differentiation between these related phenomena is needed. It is argued that spin stiffness, which leads to existence of coherent spin precession and dissipationless spin supercurrents, is a necessary but not sufficient condition for spin superfluidity. The latter is defined as a possibility of spin transport on macroscopical distances with sufficiently large spin supercurrents. This possibility is realized at special topology of the magnetic-order-parameter space, such as, e.g., that in easy-plane antiferromagnets. It is argued that an arbitrarily chosen formal criterion for the existence of magnon BEC has no connection with conditions for observation of macroscopic dissipationless spin transport.

description: In his fundamental work, Quillen developed the theory of the cotangent complex as a universal abelian derived invariant, and used it to define and study a canonical form of cohomology, encompassing many known cohomology theories. Additional cohomology theories, such as generalized cohomology of spaces and topological André-Quillen cohomology, can be accommodated by considering a spectral version of the cotangent complex. Recent work of Lurie established a comprehensive $\infty$-categorical analogue of the cotangent complex formalism using stabilization of $\infty$-categories. In this paper we study the spectral cotangent complex while working in Quillen's model categorical setting. Our main result gives new and explicit computations of the cotangent complex and Quillen cohomology of enriched categories. For this we make essential use of previous work, which identifies the tangent categories of operadic algebras in unstable model categories. In particular, we present the cotangent complex of an $\infty$-category as a spectrum valued functor on its twisted arrow category, and consider the associated obstruction theory in some examples of interest.
