description: Absorption-line systems detected in high resolution quasar spectra can be used to compare the value of dimensionless fundamental constants such as the fine-structure constant, alpha, and the proton-to-electron mass ratio, mu = m_p/m_e, as measured in remote regions of the Universe to their value today on Earth. In recent years, some evidence has emerged of small temporal and also spatial variations in alpha on cosmological scales which may reach a fractional level of 10 ppm . We are conducting a Large Programme of observations with VLT UVES to explore these variations. We here provide a general overview of the Large Programme and report on the first results for these two constants, discussed in detail in Molaro et al. and Rahmani et al. A stringent bound for Delta(alpha)/Alpha is obtained for the absorber at_abs = 1.6919 towards HE 2217-2818. The absorption profile is complex with several very narrow features, and is modeled with 32 velocity components. The relative variation in alpha in this system is +1.3+-2.4_{stat}+-1.0_{sys} ppm if Al II lambda 1670AA and three Fe II transitions are used, and +1.1+-2.6_{stat} ppm in a lightly different analysis with only Fe II transitions used. The expectation at this sky position of the recently-reported dipolar variation of alpha is (3.2--5.4)+-1.7 ppm depending on dipole model. This constraint of Delta(alpha)/alpha at face value is not supporting this expectation but is not inconsistent with it at the 3 sigma level. For the proton-to-electron mass ratio the analysis of the H_2 absorption lines of the z_{abs}~2.4018 damped Ly alpha system towards HE 0027- 1836 provides Delta(mu)/mu = (-7.6 +- 8.1_{stat} +- 6.3_{sys}) ppm which is also consistent with a null variation.

description: We prove that connected higher rank simple Lie groups have Lafforgue's strong property (T) with respect to a certain class of Banach spaces $\mathcal{E}_{10}$ containing many classical superreflexive spaces and some non-reflexive spaces as well. This generalizes the result of Lafforgue asserting that $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})$ has strong property (T) with respect to Hilbert spaces and the more recent result of the second named author asserting that $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})$ has strong property (T) with respect to a certain larger class of Banach spaces. For the generalization to higher rank groups, it is sufficient to prove strong property (T) for $\mathrm{Sp}(2,\mathbb{R})$ and its universal covering group. As consequences of our main result, it follows that for $X \in \mathcal{E}_{10}$, connected higher rank simple Lie groups and their lattices have property (F$_X$) of Bader, Furman, Gelander and Monod, and that the expanders contructed from a lattice in a connected higher rank simple Lie group do not admit a coarse embedding into $X$.

description: An active plasmonic switch based on single- and few-layer doped graphene ribbon array operating in the mid-infrared spectrum is investigated with theoretical and numerical calculations. It is shown that significant resonance wavelength shifts and modulation depths can be achieved with a slight variation of the doping concentration of the graphene ribbon. The few-layer graphene ribbon array device outperforms the single-layer one in terms of the achievable modulation depth. Our simulations reveal that, by modulating the Fermi-energy level between 0.2 eV and 0.25 eV, a four-layer graphene ribbon array device can achieve a modulation depth and resonance wavelength shift of ~13 dB and 0.94 micron respectively, compared to ~2.8 dB and 1.85 micron for a single-layer device. Additionally, simple fitting models to predict the modulation depth and the resonance wavelength shift are proposed. These prospects pave the way towards ultrafast active graphene-based plasmonic devices for infrared and THz applications.

description: We prove general Cramer type theorems for linear systems over various extensions of the tropical semiring, in which tropical numbers are enriched with an information of multiplicity, sign, or argument. We obtain existence or uniqueness results, which extend or refine earlier results of Gondran and Minoux (1978), Plus (1990), Gaubert (1992), Richter-Gebert, Sturmfels and Theobald (2005) and Izhakian and Rowen (2009). Computational issues are also discussed; in particular, some of our proofs lead to Jacobi and Gauss-Seidel type algorithms to solve linear systems in suitably extended tropical semirings.

Relaxation of surface tension in the free-surface boundary layer of simple Lennard-Jones liquids

description: In this paper we use molecular dynamics (MD) to answer a classical question: how does the surface tension on a liquid/gas interface appear? After defining surface tension from the first principles and performing several consistency checks, we perform a dynamic experiment with a single simple liquid nanodroplet. At time zero, we remove all molecules of the interfacial layer, creating a fresh bare interface with the bulk arrangement of molecules. After that the system evolves towards equilibrium, and the expected surface tension is re-established. We found that the system relaxation consists of three distinct stages. First, the mechanical balance is quickly re-established. During this process the notion of surface tension is meaningless. In the second stage, the surface tension equilibrates, and the density profile broadens to a value which we call "intrinsic" interfacial width. During the third stage, the density profile continues to broaden due to capillary wave excitations, which does not however affect the surface tension. We have observed this scenario for monatomic Lennard-Jones (LJ) liquid as well as for binary LJ mixtures at different temperatures, monitoring a wide range of physical observables.

description: Stationary, D-dimensional test branes, interacting with N-dimensional Myers-Perry bulk black holes, are investigated in arbitrary brane and bulk dimensions. The branes are asymptotically flat and axisymmetric around the rotation axis of the black hole with a single angular momentum. They are also spherically symmetric in all other dimensions allowing a total of O(1)xO(D-2) group of symmetry. It is shown that even though this setup is the most natural extension of the spherical symmetric problem to the simplest rotating case in higher dimensions, the obtained solutions are not compatible with the spherical solutions in the sense that the latter ones are not recovered in the non-rotating limit. The brane configurations are qualitatively different from the spherical problem, except in the special case of a 3-dimensional brane. Furthermore, a quasi-static phase transition between the topologically different solutions cannot be studied here, due to the lack of a general, stationary, equatorial solution.

description: We investigate the applicability of a random-matrix model to the description of non-collective excitations in heavy-ion reactions around the Coulomb barrier. To this end, we study fusion in the reaction $^{16}$O + $^{208}$Pb, taking account of the known non-collective excitations in the $^{208}$Pb nucleus. We show that the random-matrix model for the corresponding couplings reproduces reasonably well the exact calculations, obtained using empirical deformation parameters. This implies that the model may provide a powerful method for systems in which the non-collective couplings are not so well known.

Furthermore we define for any dominant integral weight $λ$ a connected subcrystal $\mathcal{R}(λ)$ in $\mathcal{R}^{\infty}$, such that this crystal is isomorphic to the crystal graph $B(λ)$. Finally we provide an explicit description of these connected crystals $\mathcal{R}(λ)$.

description: We discuss the thermoelectrical properties of nanowires hosting Majorana edge states. For a Majorana nanowire directly coupled to two normal reservoirs the thermopower always vanishes regardeless of the value of the Majorana hybridization. This situation changes drastically if we insert a quantum dot. Then, the dot Majorana side coupled system exhibits a different behavior for the thermopower depending on the Majorana hybridization parameter. Thermopower reverses its sign when the half fermionic state is fully developed. As long as the hybridization becomes finite the Seebeck coefficient behaves similarly to a resonant level system. The sign change of the thermopower when Majorana physics takes place and the fact that both, the electrical and thermal conductances reach, their half fermionic value could serve as a proof of the existence of Majorana edge states in nanowires. Finally, we perform some predictions about the gate dependence of the Seebeck coefficient when Kondo correlations are present in the dot.

description: Russia invaded Ukraine on the 24th of February 2022. To the surprise of many Ukraine did not surrender. Instead, they put up an impressive defense and dealt Russia a number of military defeats, causing the war to go until the end of 2022, and most likely for longer. European and Western support has been pivotal for the Ukrainians, both in the form of sanctions on Russia, arms deliveries, expertise, economic support, and aid relief. In addition, Europe has seen an influx of refugees both from Ukraine and Russia. There are several reasons for why Western countries support Ukraine; geopolitical, a defense for democracy and liberal rights, moral, and to support a a world order where larger countries do not invade and annex smaller countries. Yet, European support for Ukraine comes with a cost for European voters, who partly are funding Ukraine through their taxes and have experienced inflation, particularly on energy prices, as a result of the war. The Russian regime knows this, and they have tried to dent support for Ukraine in Europe by using (the absence) of gas exports as a political weapon to put pressure on Europeans and scare them. This is, for example, evident from a propaganda video published by Gazprom which shows Europeans freezing throughout the winter. Thus, Europeans are facing a trade-off; will they keep supporting Ukraine even if it comes with a cost? And if so, what factors and reasons explain their continued support for Ukraine? This is what we will explore in this project using a survey choice experiment. We argue that when the war is presented as an existential battle between democracy and autocracy, European voters will be more likely to support Ukraine. Furthermore, we expect that there will be no negative effect on the support for Ukraine, when we remind voters of the costs they are facing, since this reminds them of the sacrifices they have made in support of Ukraine and, if anything, galvanize support for Ukraine. Overall, and based on our expectations, we argue that Putin and his subordinates will have little success in swaying Western support for Ukraine with their current strategy. On the contrary, European voters will only be more likely to support Ukraine when the battle is framed as an existential battle between democracy and autocracy.

description: The conventional computers are not usable in dark, as the user cannot see the keyboard to operate properly. But there are many situations where the user may like to work on his computer under low light conditions, such as, during nights, while traveling in flights/ trains having low lights, working in the garden during evening etc. So it is necessary to provide some light to the laptop to operate the keyboard under low light situations. Luminescence of the keyboard is a desirable feature for portable computers. There may be several methods to illuminate the keyboard, the most crude may be carrying an external light and fixing at a point where it can light the keyboard. But solutions like this are not very convenient. The inventors have been looking for better solutions. This article analyses 6 patents on keyboard illumination. A good illumination system do not consume more battery, do not increase the size and weight of the laptop, do not increase heat inside the laptop box, and do not cost much to manufacture. The light should uniformly illuminate the whole keyboard and should not throw light on other areas that are not required.

description: Many cells exhibit large-scale active circulation of their entire fluid contents, a process termed cytoplasmic streaming. This phenomenon is particularly prevalent in plant cells, often presenting strikingly regimented flow patterns. The driving mechanism in such cells is known: myosin-coated organelles entrain cytoplasm as they process along actin filament bundles fixed at the periphery. Still unknown, however, is the developmental process which constructs the well-ordered actin configurations required for coherent cell-scale flow. Previous experimental works on streaming regeneration in cells of Characean algae, whose longitudinal flow is perhaps the most regimented of all, hint at an autonomous process of microfilament self-organization driving the formation of streaming patterns during morphogenesis. Working from first principles, we propose a robust model of streaming emergence that combines motor dynamics with both micro- and macroscopic hydrodynamics to explain how several independent processes, each ineffectual on its own, can reinforce to ultimately develop the patterns of streaming observed in the Characeae and other streaming species.

Modelling Associations. Bridging Practices

subject: Architectural design

description: This PhD research reflects on the practice of Leire Asensio Villoria and her work with asensio_mah with a focus on the construction of disciplinary bridges that are strategically located within the larger framework of knowledge and concerns situated within each project.

The construction of bridging practices is enabled through the act of building associations between the different project concerns, constituents and knowledge that operate as models underpinning the crossovers between different disciplinary practices. This research asserts that the use of associative models within such practices are conceptual as well as operational devices. Driving these efforts to build associations and bridges to other disciplines and concerns is an ambition to address larger public matters of concern and to place the work in worlds beyond disciplinary autonomy.

The research has revealed that the act of constructing associations between different parameters and knowledge bases becomes a deliberate act in building a network of bridges that constitute the ecosystem of considerations within which the projects are situated.

Finally Modelling Associations interrogates how creative practice may bridge to other disciplinary knowledge through a focus on the building of associative models as the construction of what Asensio Villoria calls project cosmograms.

description: We present a revised version of the New Zealand Volcano Early Warning System (NZVEWS) volcano threat assessment, updating the 2012 assessment. The purpose of this assessment is to guide future investment in volcano monitoring instrumentation for New Zealand’s active volcanoes. This report ranks New Zealand’s volcanoes by an internationally recognised threat assessment method, which we modify for New Zealand conditions. The underlying assumption is that higher-threat volcanoes warrant higher levels of instrumentation. In this revised assessment, we include new exposure factors (gross domestic product [GDP] exposure and short-term visitors), as well as introduce a new vulnerability metric based on the 2018 New Zealand Deprivation Index. We group the threat ranking and vulnerability-modified threat rankings of volcanoes into ‘high’, ‘medium’ and ‘low’ groups based on 33% quantile distribution of threat scores. Where discrepancies between threat ranking and vulnerability-modified threat ranking exist, we take the higher value for final group assignment. Ōkataina Volcanic Centre, Auckland Volcanic Field, Taranaki, Ruapehu, Taupō and Tongariro/ Ngauruhoe are the highest-threat volcanoes in New Zealand and warrant prioritisation for future network upgrades pending the outcome of the second stage of this work, which investigates instrumentation requirements for each threat-level group.

description: We propose a process calculus to model high level wireless systems, where the topology of a network is described by a digraph. The calculus enjoys features which are proper of wireless networks, namely broadcast communication and probabilistic behaviour. We first focus on the problem of composing wireless networks, then we present a compositional theory based on a probabilistic generalisation of the well known may-testing and must-testing pre- orders. Also, we define an extensional semantics for our calculus, which will be used to define both simulation and deadlock simulation preorders for wireless networks. We prove that our simulation preorder is sound with respect to the may-testing preorder; similarly, the deadlock simulation pre- order is sound with respect to the must-testing preorder, for a large class of networks. We also provide a counterexample showing that completeness of the simulation preorder, with respect to the may testing one, does not hold. We conclude the paper with an application of our theory to probabilistic routing protocols.

description: We study irreducible representations of two classes of conformal Galilei algebras in 1-spatial dimension. We construct a functor which transforms simple modules with nonzero central charge over the Heisenberg subalgebra into simple modules over the conformal Galilei algebras. This can be viewed as an analogue of oscillator representations. We use oscillator representations to describe the structure of simple highest weight modules over conformal Galilei algebras. We classify simple weight modules with finite dimensional weight spaces over finite dimensional Heisenberg algebras and use this classification and properties of oscillator representations to classify simple weight modules with finite dimensional weight spaces over conformal Galilei algebras.

Light scalar from deformations of the Klebanov-Strassler background

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We study deformations of the Klebanov-Strassler background parametrized by the size of a dim-6 VEV. In the UV, these solutions describe the usual duality cascade of Klebanov-Strassler; however below the scale rho* set by the dim-6 VEV they exhibit hyperscaling violation over a range of the radial coordinate. Focusing on the spectrum of scalar glueballs, we find a parametrically light state, the mass of which is suppressed by rho*, becoming massless in the limit of rho* -> infinity. Along the way, we clarify the choice of IR and UV boundary conditions for the fluctuations in the bulk, and find agreement with previous calculations for the spectrum of Klebanov-Strassler.

description: The quantum-reduced loop-gravity technique has been introduced for dealing with cosmological models. We show that it can be applied rather generically: anytime the spatial metric can be gauge-fixed to a diagonal form. The technique selects states based on reduced graphs with Livine-Speziale coherent intertwiners and could simplify the analysis of the dynamics in the full theory.

The Brauer group and indecomposable (2,1)-cycles

description: We show that the torsion in the group of indecomposable $(2,1)$-cycles on a smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field is isomorphic to a twist of its Brauer group, away from the characteristic. In particular, this group is infinite as soon as $b_2-ρ>0$. We derive a new insight into Roitman's theorem on torsion $0$-cycles over a surface.

Overcoming loss of contrast in atom interferometry due to gravity gradients

description: Long-time atom interferometry is instrumental to various high-precision measurements of fundamental physical properties, including tests of the equivalence principle. Due to rotations and gravity gradients, the classical trajectories characterizing the motion of the wave packets for the two branches of the interferometer do not close in phase space, an effect which increases significantly with the interferometer time. The relative displacement between the interfering wave packets in such open interferometers leads to a fringe pattern in the density profile at each exit port and a loss of contrast in the oscillations of the integrated particle number as a function of the phase shift. Paying particular attention to gravity gradients, we present a simple mitigation strategy involving small changes in the timing of the laser pulses which is very easy to implement. A useful representation-free description of the state evolution in an atom interferometer is introduced and employed to analyze the loss of contrast and mitigation strategy in the general case. (As a by-product, a remarkably compact derivation of the phase-shift in a general light-pulse atom interferometer is provided.) Furthermore, exact results are obtained for (pure and mixed) Gaussian states which allow a simple interpretation in terms of the alignment of Wigner functions in phase-space. Analytical results are also obtained for expanding Bose-Einstein condensates within the time-dependent Thomas-Fermi approximation. Finally, a combined strategy for rotations and nonaligned gravity gradients is considered as well.

Spatial-Spectral Boosting Analysis for Stroke Patients' Motor Imagery EEG in Rehabilitation Training

description: Current studies about motor imagery based rehabilitation training systems for stroke subjects lack an appropriate analytic method, which can achieve a considerable classification accuracy, at the same time detects gradual changes of imagery patterns during rehabilitation process and disinters potential mechanisms about motor function recovery. In this study, we propose an adaptive boosting algorithm based on the cortex plasticity and spectral band shifts. This approach models the usually predetermined spatial-spectral configurations in EEG study into variable preconditions, and introduces a new heuristic of stochastic gradient boost for training base learners under these preconditions. We compare our proposed algorithm with commonly used methods on datasets collected from 2 months' clinical experiments. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the method in detecting the variations of stroke patients' EEG patterns. By chronologically reorganizing the weight parameters of the learned additive model, we verify the spatial compensatory mechanism on impaired cortex and detect the changes of accentuation bands in spectral domain, which may contribute important prior knowledge for rehabilitation practice.
