description: In this Letter, we show that at low temperatures, zero-point fluctuations of the plasmon modes of two mutually coupled 2-D planar Wigner crystals give rise to a novel long-range attractive force. For the case where the distance $d$ between two planar surfaces is large, this attractive force has an unusual power-law decay, which scales as $d^{-7/2},$ unlike other fluctuation-induced forces. Specifically, we note that its range is longer than the ``standard'' zero-temperature van der Waals interaction. This result may in principle be observed in bilayer electronic systems and provides insight into the nature of correlation effects for highly charged surfaces.

description: According to the Green-Kubo theory of linear response, the conductivity of an electronically gapped liquid can be expressed in terms of the time correlations of the adiabatic charge flux, which is determined by the atomic velocities and Born effective charges. We show that topological quantisation of adiabatic charge transport and gauge invariance of transport coefficients allow one to rigorously express the electrical conductivity of an insulating fluid in terms of integer-valued, scalar, and time-independent atomic oxidation numbers, instead of real-valued, tensor, and time-dependent Born charges.

description: Discriminating cell types is a daily request for stem cell biologists. However, there is not a user-friendly system available to date for public users to discriminate the common cell types, embryonic stem cells (ESCs), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and somatic cells (SCs). Here, we develop WCTDS, a web-server of cell type discrimination system, to discriminate the three cell types and their subtypes like fetal versus adult SCs. WCTDS is developed as a top layer application of our recent publication regarding cell type discriminations, which employs DNA-methylation as biomarkers and machine learning models to discriminate cell types. Implemented by Django, Python, R, and Linux shell programming, run under Linux-Apache web server, and communicated through MySQL, WCTDS provides a friendly framework to efficiently receive the user input and to run mathematical models for analyzing data and then to present results to users. This framework is flexible and easy to be expended for other applications. Therefore, WCTDS works as a user-friendly framework to discriminate cell types and subtypes and it can also be expended to detect other cell types like cancer cells.

description: The d-wave pairing correlations along with spin correlation are calculated with quantum Monte Carlo method for the two-dimensional Hubbard model on lattice structures representing organic superconductors $κ$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$X and (TMTSF)$_2$X. In both cases the pairing correlations for superconducting order parameters with nodes are found to be enhanced. The symmetry and the enhancement of the pairing is systematically correlated with the spin structure factor, suggesting a spin-fluctuation mediated pairing. We have further found that, as we deform the Fermi surface to make the system approach the half-filled square lattice, the coherence of the pairing saturates while the local pairing amplitude continues to increase.

One-dimensional fermions with incommensuration

description: We study the spectrum of fermions hopping on a chain with a weak incommensuration close to dimerization; both q, the deviation of the wave number from pi, and delta, the strength of the incommensuration, are small. For free fermions, we use a continuum Dirac theory to show that there are an infinite number of bands which meet at zero energy as q approaches zero. In the limit that the ratio q/ δ--> 0, the number of states lying inside the q=0 gap is nonzero and equal to 2 δ/π^2. Thus the limit q --> 0 differs from q=0; this can be seen clearly in the behavior of the specific heat at low temperature. For interacting fermions or the XXZ spin-1/2 chain close to dimerization, we use bosonization to argue that similar results hold; as q --> 0, we find a nontrivial density of states near zero energy. However, the limit q --> 0 and q=0 give the same results near commensurate wave numbers which are different from pi. We apply our results to the Azbel-Hofstadter problem of electrons hopping on a two-dimensional lattice in the presence of a magnetic field. Finally, we discuss the complete energy spectrum of noninteracting fermions with incommensurate hopping by going up to higher orders in delta.

description: The random field Ising model with Gaussian disorder is studied using a new Monte Carlo algorithm. The algorithm combines the advantanges of the replica exchange method and the two-replica cluster method and is much more efficient than the Metropolis algorithm for some disorder realizations. Three-dimensional sytems of size $24^3$ are studied. Each realization of disorder is simulated at a value of temperature and uniform field that is adjusted to the phase transition region for that disorder realization. Energy and magnetization distributions show large variations from one realization of disorder to another. For some realizations of disorder there are three well separated peaks in the magnetization distribution and two well separated peaks in the energy distribution suggesting a first-order transition.

description: The no-cloning property of quantum mechanics allows unforgeability of quantum banknotes and credit cards. Quantum credit card protocols involve a bank, a client and a payment terminal, and their practical implementation typically relies on encoding information on weak coherent states of light. Here, we provide a security proof in this practical setting for semi-device-independent quantum money with classical verification, involving an honest bank, a dishonest client and a potentially untrusted terminal. Our analysis uses semidefinite programming in the coherent state framework and aims at simultaneously optimizing over the noise and losses introduced by a dishonest party. We discuss secure regimes of operation in both fixed and randomized phase settings, taking into account experimental imperfections. Finally, we study the evolution of protocol security in the presence of a decohering optical quantum memory and identify secure credit card lifetimes for a specific configuration.

description: A two dimensional electronic system, where the Fermi surface is close to a Van Hove singularity, shows a variety of weak coupling instabilities, and it is a convenient model to study the interplay between antiferromagnetism and anisotropic superconductivity. We present a detailed analysis of the kinematics of the electron scattering in this model. The similitudes, and differences, between a standard Renormalization Group approach and previous work based on parquet summations of log$^2$ divergences are analyzed, with emphasis on the underlying physical processes. General properties of the phase diagram are discussed.

description: This paper introduces an optimization problem (P) and a solution strategy to design variable-speed-limit controls for a highway that is subject to traffic congestion and uncertain vehicle arrival and departure. By employing a finite data-set of samples of the uncertain variables, we aim to find a data-driven solution that has a guaranteed out-of-sample performance. In principle, such formulation leads to an intractable problem (P) as the distribution of the uncertainty variable is unknown. By adopting a distributionally robust optimization approach, this work presents a tractable reformulation of (P) and an efficient algorithm that provides a suboptimal solution that retains the out-of-sample performance guarantee. A simulation illustrates the effectiveness of this method.

description: Apart from obesity, it remains controversial whether atherosclerosis and its cardiovascular risk disease (CVD) factors are associated with risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Using data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study (ARIC), we evaluated associations between CVD risk factors and incident VTE in a cohort of 15,340 participants who were free a history of VTE and/or anticoagulant use on enrolment. The CVD risk factors were updated during the follow-up period. Over a mean follow-up time of 15.5 years (237,375 person-years), 468 participants had VTE events. Adjusting for demographic variables and body mass index (BMI), current smokers were at greater risk [HR of 1.44 (95% CI: 1.12–1.86)] compared to non-smokers. There was a positive monotonic association between BMI and VTE risk. Individuals with a BMI ≥35 kg/m2 had a HR for VTE of 3.09 (95%CI: 2.26–4.23) compared to those with normal BMI (<25 kg/m2). Greater physical activity was associated with lower VTE risk in a demographic adjusted model; however, this association became non-significant following adjustment for BMI. Alcohol intake, diabetes, hypertension, high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides were not associated with VTE risk. In conclusion, among the well-established CVD risk factors, only current smoking and obesity were independently associated with VTE risk in this large cohort where risk factors were updated serially during follow-up. This finding corroborates that the pathogenesis of venous disease differs from that of atherosclerotic disease.

We discuss for each of them the role of the noncommutativity of quantum operators and establish links to the Kubo response theory for closed quantum systems. We show in particular that the equilibrium response vanishes for perturbations that commute with the unperturbed Hamiltonian while the steady-state response does not, highlighting the profound difference between the two.

Its basis is Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory within an electronic multiple scattering, imaginary time Green function formalism. Results receive a natural interpretation in terms of overdamped oscillator systems making them suitable for incorporation into spin fluctuation theories. For illustration we apply our method to the nearly ferromagnetic metal Pd and the nearly antiferromagnetic chromium alloy Cr95V5. We compare and contrast the spin dynamics of these two metals and in each case identify those fluctuations with relaxation times much longer than typical electronic `hopping times'

Hydrogen and the Abundances of Elements in Impulsive Solar Energetic-Particle Events
Creators: name: Reames, Donald V.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Hydrogen has been almost completely ignored in studies of the abundance patterns of the chemical elements in solar energetic particles (SEPs). We seek to find impulsive events where H fits these abundance patterns and document the events that do not, suggesting possible reasons for the disparity. For 24 % of the smaller impulsive SEP events, the relative abundance of H fits within one standard deviation of the power-law fit of the abundances of elements 6 <= Z <= 56, relative to coronal abundances. In impulsive events with high intensities, H can be 10 to 100 times its expected value. In a few of these larger events, increased scattering at high wavenumber may preferentially detain H, perhaps with self-amplified waves; in some events pre-event proton background may con-tribute. In most large impulsive SEP events, however, associated shock waves must play a much greater role than previously thought; fast (>500km/s) coronal mass ejections con-tribute to 62 % of impulsive events. Shocks may sample protons from the ambient coronal plasma or residual background as well as reaccelerating heavier impulsive SEP ions injected from the region of magnetic reconnection in solar jets. Excess H may be a signature of shock acceleration.

A closed form of expressions for the RKKY indirect exchange, superconducting Cooper loop and `density-density' correlation function is obtained. The systematic comparison with planar results is made, the effects of spherical geometry are outlined. The quantum coherence of electrons leads to the enhancement of all correlations for the points--antipodes on the sphere. This effect is lost when the radius of the sphere exceeds the temperature coherence length.

description: Fundamental mechanisms governing cell size control and homeostasis are still poorly understood. The relationship between sizes at division and birth in single cells is used as a metric to categorize the basis of size homeostasis [1-3]. Cells dividing at a fixed size regardless of birth size (sizer) are expected to show a division-birth slope of 0, whereas cells dividing after growing for a fixed size increment (adder) have an expected slope of +1 [4]. These two theoretical values are, however, rarely experimentally observed. For example, rod-shaped fission yeast $\it{Schizosaccharomyces}$ $\it{pombe}$ cells, which divide at a fixed surface area [5, 6], exhibit a division-birth slope for cell lengths of 0.25$\pm$0.02, significantly different from the expected sizer value of zero. Here we investigate possible reasons for this discrepancy by developing a mathematical model of sizer control including the relevant sources of variation. Our results support $\it{pure}$ sizer control and show that deviation from zero slope is exaggerated by measurement of an inappropriate geometrical quantity (e.g., length instead of area), combined with cell-to-cell radius variability. The model predicts that mutants with greater errors in size sensing or septum positioning paradoxically appear to behave as better sizers. Furthermore, accounting for cell width variability, we show that pure sizer control can in some circumstances reproduce the apparent adder behaviour observed in $\it{E. coli}$. These findings demonstrate that analysis of geometric variation can lead to new insights into cell size control.

Creators: name: Rozansky, Lev

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2004

description: The Kontsevich integral of a knot is a graph-valued invariant which (when graded by the Vassiliev degree of graphs) is characterized by a universal property; namely it is a universal Vassiliev invariant of knots. We introduce a second grading of the Kontsevich integral, the Euler degree, and a geometric null-move on the set of knots. We explain the relation of the null-move to -equivalence, and the relation to the Euler grading of the Kontsevich integral. The null-move leads in a natural way to the introduction of trivalent graphs with beads, and to a conjecture on a rational version of the Kontsevich integral, formulated by the second author and proven in Geom.

description: This article draws on an industrial dispute over the filming of The Hobbit in New Zealand in 2010 to contribute to the theorisation of the interplay between interests and identities and our understanding of mobilisation and collective identity. While industrial disputes are typically viewed as conflict between groups with opposing material interests, this may miss the way in which both the identities of those involved and their interests are discursively constituted in articulatory processes. Specifically, we apply Laclau and Mouffe’s discourse theory and in doing so demonstrate that the dispute was more than a conflict over working conditions, it was a hegemonic struggle to fix meaning. In making this conceptual contribution we highlight a tendency within industrial relations analysis to reify interests.

description: Software engineering is knowledge-intensive work, and how to manage software engineering knowledge has received much attention. This systematic review identifies empirical studies of knowledge management initiatives in software engineering, and discusses the concepts studied, the major findings, and the research methods used. Seven hundred and sixty-two articles were identified, of which 68 were studies in an industry context. Of these, 29 were empirical studies and 39 reports of lessons learned. More than half of the empirical studies were case studies. The majority of empirical studies relate to technocratic and behavioural aspects of knowledge management, while there are few studies relating to economic, spatial and cartographic approaches. A finding reported across multiple papers was the need to not focus exclusively on explicit knowledge, but also consider tacit knowledge. We also describe implications for research and for practice.

Solvable group representations and free divisors whose complements are K(π, 1)‘S
Creators: name: Damon, James
name: Pike, Brian
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2012

description: Abstract. We apply previous results on the representations of solvable linear
algebraic groups to construct a new class of free divisors whose complements
are K(π,  1)'s. These free divisors arise as the exceptional orbit varieties for a
special class of "block representations" and have the structure of determinantal
arrangements.
Among these are the free divisors defined by conditions for the (modified)
Cholesky-type factorizations of matrices, which contain the determinantal varieties
of singular matrices of various types as components. These complements
are proven to be homotopy tori, as are the Milnor fibers of these free divisors.
The generators for the complex cohomology of each are given in terms of forms
defined using the basic relative invariants of the group representation.

Year: 2024

description: This article explores the effectiveness of dictation in enhancing spelling skills among primary school pupils. Dictation, a traditional teaching method, engages students in listening to words and writing them down, reinforcing correct spelling patterns through auditory recognition and active participation. The article discusses the benefits of dictation, including auditory reinforcement, contextual learning, immediate feedback, and assessment. Practical tips for conducting dictation sessions are provided, emphasizing word selection, clear pronunciation, varied exercises, feedback, and consistent practice. By implementing dictation effectively, teachers can help students develop strong spelling skills and foster literacy development.

description: We show that a signal can propagate in a particular direction through a model random medium regardless of the precise state of the medium. As a prototype, we consider a point particle moving on a one-dimensional lattice whose sites are occupied by scatterers with the following properties: (i) the state of each site is defined by its spin (up or down); (ii) the particle arriving at a site is scattered forward (backward) if the spin is up (down); (iii) the state of the site is modified by the passage of the particle, i.e. the spin of the site where a scattering has taken place, flips ($\uparrow \Leftrightarrow \downarrow $). We consider one dimensional and triangular lattices, for which we give a microscopic description of the dynamics, prove the propagation of a particle through the scatterers, and compute analytically its statistical properties. In particular we prove that, in one dimension, the average propagation velocity is $ = 1/(3-2q)$, with $q$ the probability that a site has a spin $\uparrow$, and, in the triangular lattice, the average propagation velocity is independent of the scatterers distribution: $ = 1/8$. In both cases, the origin of the propagation is a blocking mechanism, restricting the motion of the particle in the direction opposite to the ultimate propagation direction, and there is a specific re-organization of the spins after the passage of the particle. A detailed mathematical analysis of this phenomenon is, to the best of our knowledge, presented here for the first time.

description: We study the dynamics of relaxation and thermalization in an exactly solvable model of a particle interacting with a harmonic oscillator bath. Our goal is to understand the effects of non-Markovian processes on the relaxational dynamics and to compare the exact evolution of the distribution function with approximate Markovian and Non-Markovian quantum kinetics. There are two different cases that are studied in detail: i) a quasiparticle (resonance) when the renormalized frequency of the particle is above the frequency threshold of the bath and ii) a stable renormalized `particle' state below this threshold. The time evolution of the occupation number for the particle is evaluated exactly using different approaches that yield to complementary insights. The exact solution allows us to investigate the concept of the formation time of a quasiparticle and to study the difference between the relaxation of the distribution of bare particles and that of quasiparticles. We derive a non-Markovian quantum kinetic equation which resums the perturbative series and includes off-shell effects. A Markovian approximation that includes off-shell contributions and the usual Boltzmann equation (energy conserving) are obtained from the quantum kinetic equation in the limit of wide separation of time scales upon different coarse-graining assumptions. The relaxational dynamics predicted by the non-Markovian, Markovian and Boltzmann approximations are compared to the exact result. The Boltzmann approach is seen to fail in the case of wide resonances and when threshold and renormalization effects are important.

description: Many genes are differentially expressed between androgen-dependent and androgen-independent prostate cancer (CaP). Differential expression analysis and subtractive hybridization previously identified nine genes expressed in intact mice bearing CWR22 tumors and castrated mice bearing recurrent CWR22 tumors but not in regressed tumors. The objectives of this study were to develop an immunostaining method to dual-label foci of proliferating tumor cells [the origin of castration-recurrent CaP (CR-CaP)], to determine which of the nine candidate proteins were differentially expressed in proliferating versus nonproliferating cells at the onset of growth after castration, and to test preclinical findings using clinical specimens of androgen-stimulated benign prostate (AS-BP) and CaP (AS-CaP) and CR-CaP.

description: The observed binary black hole (BBH) mergers indicate a large Galactic progenitor population continuously evolving from large orbital separations and low gravitational wave (GW) frequencies to the final merger phase. We investigate the equilibrium distribution of binary black holes in the Galaxy. Given the observed BBH merger rate, we contrast the expected number of systems radiating in the low-frequency $0.1-10\,$mHz GW band under two assumptions: (1) that all merging systems originate from near-circular orbits, as may be indicative of isolated binary evolution, and (2) that all merging systems originate at very high eccentricity, as predicted by models of dynamically-formed BBHs and triple and quadruple systems undergoing Lidov-Kozai eccentricity oscillations. We show that the equilibrium number of systems expected at every frequency is higher in the eccentric case (2) than in the circular case (1) by a factor of $\simeq 2-15$. This follows from the fact that eccentric systems spend more time than circular systems radiating in the low-frequency GW bands. The GW emission comes in pulses at periastron separated by the orbital period, which may be days to years. For a LISA-like sensitivity curve, we show that if eccentric systems contribute significantly to the observed merger rate, then $\simeq 10$ eccentric systems should be seen in the Galaxy.

description: The price of financial assets are, since Bachelier, considered to be described by a (discrete or continuous) time sequence of random variables, i.e a stochastic process. Sharp scaling exponents or unifractal behavior of such processes has been reported in several works. In this letter we investigate the question of scaling transformation of price processes by establishing a new connexion between non-linear group theoretical methods and multifractal methods developed in mathematical physics. Using two sets of financial chronological time series, we show that the scaling transformation is a non-linear group action on the moments of the price increments. Its linear part has a spectral decomposition that puts in evidence a multifractal behavior of the price increments.

description: Counting experiments often rely on Monte Carlo simulations for predictions of Poisson expectations. The accompanying uncertainty from the finite Monte Carlo sample size can be incorporated into parameter estimation by modifying the Poisson likelihood. We first review previous Frequentist methods of this type by Barlow et al, Bohm et al, and Chirkin, as well as recently proposed probabilistic methods by the author and Argüelles et al. We show that all these approaches can be understood in a unified way: they all approximate the underlying probability distribution of the sum of weights in a given bin, the compound Poisson distribution (CPD). The Probabilistic methods marginalize the Poisson mean with a distribution that approximates the CPD, while the Frequentist counterparts optimize the same integrand treating the mean as a nuisance parameter. With this viewpoint we can motivate three new probabilistic likelihoods based on generalized gamma-Poisson mixture distributions which we derive in analytic form. Afterwards, we test old and new formulas in different parameter estimation settings consisting of a "background" and "signal" dataset. The probablistic counterpart to the Ansatz by Barlow et al. outperforms all other existing approaches in various scenarios. We further find a surprising outcome: usage of the exact CPD is actually bad for parameter estimation. A continuous approximation performs much better and in principle allows to perform bias-free inference at any level of simulated livetime if the first two moments of the CPD of each dataset are known exactly. Finally, we also discuss the situation where new Monte Carlo simulation is produced for a given parameter choice which leads to fluctuations in the computed likelihood value. Two of the new formulas allow to include this Poisson uncertainty directly into the likelihood which substantially decreases these fluctuations.
