description: Olshanski's centralizer construction provides a realization of the Yangian for the Lie algebra gl(n) as a subalgebra in the projective limit of a chain of centralizers in the universal enveloping algebras. We give a modified version of this construction based on a quantum analog of Sylvester's theorem. We then use it to get an algebra homomorphism from the Yangian to the transvector algebra associated with the general linear Lie algebras. The results are applied to identify the elementary representations of the Yangian by constructing their highest vectors explicitly in terms of elements of the transvector algebra.

description: We presented 15 new T dwarfs that were selected from UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey, Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy, and Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer surveys, and confirmed with optical to near infrared spectra obtained with the Very Large Telescope and the Gran Telescopio Canarias. One of these new T dwarfs is mildly metal-poor with slightly suppressed $K$-band flux. We presented a new X-shooter spectrum of a known benchmark sdT5.5 subdwarf, HIP 73786B. To better understand observational properties of brown dwarfs, we discussed transition zones (mass ranges) with low-rate hydrogen, lithium, and deuterium burning in brown dwarf population. The hydrogen burning transition zone is also the substellar transition zone that separates very low-mass stars, transitional, and degenerate brown dwarfs. Transitional brown dwarfs have been discussed in previous works of the Primeval series. Degenerate brown dwarfs without hydrogen fusion are the majority of brown dwarfs. Metal-poor degenerate brown dwarfs of the Galactic thick disc and halo have become T5+ subdwarfs. We selected 41 T5+ subdwarfs from the literature by their suppressed $K$-band flux. We studied the spectral-type - colour correlations, spectral-type - absolute magnitude correlations, colour-colour plots, and HR diagrams of T5+ subdwarfs, in comparison to these of L-T dwarfs and L subdwarfs. We discussed the T5+ subdwarf discovery capability of deep sky surveys in the 2020s.

description: Gade [R. Gade, Nucl. Phys. B \textbf{398}, 499 (1993)] has shown that the local density of states for a particle hopping on a two-dimensional bipartite lattice in the presence of weak disorder and in the absence of time-reversal symmetry(chiral unitary universality class) is anomalous in the vicinity of the band center $ε=0$ whenever the disorder preserves the sublattice symmetry. More precisely, using a nonlinear-sigma-model that encodes the sublattice (chiral) symmetry and the absence of time-reversal symmetry she argues that the disorder average local density of states diverges as $|ε|^{-1}\exp(-c|\lnε|^κ)$ with $c$ some non-universal positive constant and $κ=1/2$ a universal exponent. Her analysis has been extended to the case when time-reversal symmetry is present (chiral orthogonal universality class) for which the same exponent $κ=1/2$ was predicted. Motrunich \textit{et al.} [O. Motrunich, K. Damle, and D. A. Huse, Phys. Rev. B \textbf{65}, 064206 (2001)] have argued that the exponent $κ=1/2$ does not apply to the typical density of states in the chiral orthogonal universality class. They predict that $κ=2/3$ instead. We confirm the analysis of Motrunich \textit{et al.} within a field theory for two flavors of Dirac fermions subjected to two types of weak uncorrelated random potentials: a purely imaginary vector potential and a complex valued mass potential. This model is believed to belong to the chiral orthogonal universality class. Our calculation relies in an essential way on the existence of infinitely many local composite operators with negative anomalous scaling dimensions.

description: Background Mental disorders are common among people with HIV (PWH) and are associated with poor HIV outcomes. Despite high unmet mental health needs among PWH, use of evidence-based mental health screening and treatment protocols remains limited at HIV treatment facilities across low-resource settings. Integrating mental health services into HIV care can reduce this gap. This study’s objective was to explore factors that influence integration of mental health screening and treatment into HIV clinics in Cameroon. Methods We analyzed 14 in-depth interviews with clinic staff supporting PWH at three urban HIV treatment clinics in Cameroon. Interviews focused on current processes, barriers and facilitators, and types of support needed to integrate mental health care into HIV care. Interviews were recorded and transcribed. French transcripts were translated into English. We used thematic analysis to identify factors that influence integration of mental health screening and treatment into HIV care in these settings. Ethical review boards in the United States and Cameroon approved this study. Results Respondents discussed a lack of standardized mental health screening processes in HIV treatment facilities and generally felt ill-equipped to conduct mental health screening. Low community awareness about mental disorders, mental health-related stigma, limited physical space, and high clinic volume affected providers’ ability to screen clients for mental disorders. Providers indicated that better coordination and communication were needed to support client referral to mental health care. Despite these barriers, providers were motivated to screen clients for mental disorders and believed that mental health service provision could improve quality of HIV care and treatment outcomes. All providers interviewed said they would feel more confident screening for mental disorders with additional training and resources. Providers recommended community sensitization, training or hiring additional staff, improved coordination to manage referrals, and leadership buy-in at multiple levels of the health system to support sustainable integration of mental health screening and treatment into HIV clinics in Cameroon. Conclusions Providers reported enthusiasm to integrate mental health services into HIV care but need more support and training to do so in an effective and sustainable manner.

 Diagnosis. This species belongs to Cheilosia proxima group (Vujić et al., 2013) and is most similar to Cheilosia balkana Vujić, 1994 in having first flagellomere black to blackishbrown, margin of upper calypter with short pale pile, frons not swollen, abdomen (including pregenital segments) covered in pale macrotrichia (Vujić et al., 2001). The Cheilosia pascuorum male can be separated from the male of C. balkana by: tergite 3 dull medially (in C. balkana, tergite 3 shiny); vein M 1 meeting vein R 4+5 at right or obtuse angle (fig. 26) (in C. balkana, vein M 1 meeting vein R 4+5 at an acute angle); arista bare (fig. 29) (in C. balkana, arista with short microtrichia); dorsal lobe of gonostylus very broad basally (in C. balkana, dorsal lobe of gonostylus basally narrowed) (Vujić et al., 2001). From the similar species C. proxima (Zetterstedt, 1843) and C. gigantea (Zetterstedt, 1838), C. pascuorum can be separated by: abdomen entirely with pale macrotrichia (figs 26, 27) (in others, abdomen partly with black macrotrichia, at least pregenital segments with a few black macrotrichia). Additionally, from C. proxima it differs by its larger size, usually not smaller than 10 mm (C. proxima is smaller, usually 7–9 mm). Genitalia of these species are different by the shape of the dorsal lobe of the gonostylus (Vujić et al., 2001).
 The genitalia of C. pascuorum have been prepared and compared with figures in Vujić et al. (2001).
Note. This species is regarded as generally endangered in Europe (Vujić et al., 2001).

description: Our goal is to constrain models of active region formation by tracking the average motion of active region polarity pairs as they emerge onto the surface. We measured the motion of the two main opposite polarities in 153 emerging active regions (EARs) using line-of-sight magnetic field observations from the Solar Dynamics Observatory Helioseismic Emerging Active Region (SDO/HEAR) survey (Schunker et al. 2016). We first measured the position of each of the polarities eight hours after emergence and tracked their location forwards and backwards in time. We find that, on average, the polarities emerge with an east-west orientation and the separation speed between the polarities increases. At about 0.1 days after emergence, the average separation speed reaches a peak value of 229 +/- 11 m/s, and then starts to decrease, and about 2.5 days after emergence the polarities stop separating. We also find that the separation and the separation speed in the east-west direction are systematically larger for active regions with higher flux. Our results reveal two phases of the emergence process defined by the rate of change of the separation speed as the polarities move apart. Phase 1 begins when the opposite polarity pairs first appear at the surface, with an east-west alignment and an increasing separation speed. We define Phase 2 to begin when the separation speed starts to decrease, and ends when the polarities have stopped separating. This is consistent with the picture of Chen, Rempel, & Fan (2017): the peak of a flux tube breaks through the surface during Phase 1. During Phase 2 the magnetic field lines are straightened by magnetic tension, so that the polarities continue to move apart, until they eventually lie directly above their anchored subsurface footpoints.

description: Sussex Archaeological Collections, 145, 153-179
description: A programme of archaeological recording, historical research, and dendrochronological dating, undertaken during 1993--4, demonstrated that the barn at Charlton Court, Steyning, was erected shortly after the manor had passed into private hands in 1403, and was probably prefabricated from green timbers during 1405--6. It was originally designed as a three-bay unaisled barn with canopied porches to the central bay, but was never completed and used in its intended form. It was altered and extended at either end, using timber from the original stock; the original roof design was maintained, but aisles were added. A number of subsequent alterations and repairs are discernible and at a date probably in the eighteenth century, masonry walls were inserted at the south end. A detailed description is given of the construction and structural history of the barn. A series of dendrochronological samples provide a basis for dating, and these are fully discussed. Includes

description: We present a non-equilibrium quasiclassical formalism suitable for studying linear response ac properties of Josephson junctions. The non-equilibrium self-consistency equations are satisfied, to very good accuracy, already in zeroth iteration. We use the formalism to study ac Josephson effect in a ballistic superconducting point contact. The real and imaginary parts of the ac linear conductance are calculated both analytically (at low frequencies) and numerically (at arbitrary frequency). They show strong temperature, frequency, and phase dependence. Many anomalous properties appear near phi = pi. We ascribe them to the presence of zero energy bound states.

description: Im Projekt Stadtpilot wurde die im Urban Challenge Team CarOLO der TU Braunschweig eingesetzte objektbasierte Umfeldwahrnehmung weiterentwickelt. Bedingt durch das veränderte Szenario wurde der Einsatzbereich des Versuchsträgers von abgesperrten Testgeländen in den öffentlichen Straßenverkehr verlagert.
In dieser veränderten Umgebung werden Fremdfahrzeuge von den eingesetzten Sensoren durch einen offenen Polygonzug (Kontur) mit einer Vielzahl von Stützpunkten beschrieben. Teilweise liegen sie auf Geraden oder bilden das Rauschen der Kontur ab und leisten so keinen Beitrag zur Beschreibung der Kontur. Diese überflüssigen Punkte erschweren ein erfolgreiches Tracking und verzerren die Kontur der Objekthypothese. Aufgrund des zahlreichen Fremdverkehrs, bedingt durch die Veränderung des Umfelds, treten ferner häufig Perspektivwechsel durch überholende und überholte Fahrzeuge auf. Aus diesem Grund erfahren einzelne Stützpunkte der Kontur keine weiteren Aktualisierungen durch Messungen und können so ebenfalls zu Verzerrungen der Kontur führen.
Um diesen Problemen zu begegnen, wurde das Kontur schätzende Kalmanfilter um verbesserte Konturaktualisierungen sowie einen Konturklassifikator auf Basis der Evidenztheorie erweitert. Diese Verbesserungen ermöglichen eine Reduzierung der verwendeten Stützpunkte. Ferner werden Perspektivwechsel von überholenden Fahrzeugen besser unterstützt, da diese durch den Klassifikator explizit erkannt werden.
description: In project Stadtpilot, described in, the object based environment perception system developed by the urban challenge team CarOLO at TU-Braunschweig, as presented in, was enhanced. In this new project context, the scenario is further complicated to include public traffic on large inner-city loops.
Other vehicles are described by the projects sensor data fusion by an open polyline (contour) with lots of points. Partially, these points lie on straight lines or represent noise of the contour, which do not contribute to the objects description. These extra points complicate an effective tracking and deform the contour of the object hypothesis. Because of the numerous traffic and due to the change in the environment’s type, surrounded vehicles create a change of view very often. This results in no or less measurement updates of some points in the contour and can result in deformation of the contour.
In an effort to overcome this problem, the contour estimating Kalman filter, presented in, was enhanced by improved point update algorithms as well as a contour classifier based upon evidence theory. These enhancements allow the decrease of the used points. Changes of view, due to passing traffic, are better identified because the classifier identifies the most likely shape explicitly.

description: In the new era of gravitational wave (GW) and multi-messenger astrophysics, the detection of a GW signal from the coalescence of a black hole - neutron star (BHNS) binary remains a highly anticipated discovery. This kind of system is expected to be within reach of the second generation of ground-based detectors. In this context, we develop a series of versatile semi-analytical models to predict the properties of all the electromagnetic (EM) counterparts of BHNS mergers. We include the nuclear-decay-powered kilonova emission, its radio remnant, the prompt emission from the jet and the related afterglow. The properties of these counterparts depend upon those of the outflows that result from the partial disruption of the NS during the merger and from the accretion disc around the remnant, which are necessary ingredients for transient EM emission to accompany the GW signal. We therefore define ways to relate the properties of these outflows to those of the progenitor binary, establishing a link between the binary parameters and the counterpart properties. From the resulting model, we anticipate the variety of light curves that can emerge after a BHNS coalescence, from the radio up to gamma-rays. These light curves feature universal traits which are the imprint of the dynamics of the emitting outflows, but at the same time they show a clear dependence on the BH mass and spin, though with a high degree of degeneracy. The latter can be deduced by joint GW - EM analysis. In this paper, we perform a proof-of-concept multi-messenger parameter estimation of a BHNS merger with an associated kilonova, to test how the information from the EM counterpart can complement that from the GW signal. Our results indicate that the observation and modeling of the kilonova can help to break the degeneracies in the GW parameter space, leading to better constraints on, e.g., the BH spin.

Dynamic programming

description: Dynamic programming (DP) has long been an essential framework for solving sequential decision-making problems. However, when the state space is intractably large or the objective contains a risk term, the conventional DP framework often fails to work. In this dissertation, we investigate such issues, particularly those arising in the context of multi-armed bandit problems and risk-sensitive optimal execution problems, and discuss the use of modern DP techniques to overcome these challenges such as information relaxation, policy gradient, and state augmentation. We develop frameworks formalize and improve existing heuristic algorithms (e.g., Thompson sampling, aggressive-in-the-money trading), while shedding new light on the adopted DP techniques.

description: The detailed dynamics around intermittency bursts is investigated in turbulent shell models. We observe that the amplitude of the high wave number velocity modes vanishes before each burst, meaning that the fixed point in zero and not the Kolmogorov fixed point determines the intermittency. The phases of the field organize during the burst, and after a burst the field oscillates back to the laminar level. We explain this behavior from the variations in the values of the dissipation and the advection around the zero fixed point.

description: We propose and analyze a mathematical model for the evolution of opinions on directed complex networks. Our model generalizes the popular DeGroot and Friedkin-Johnsen models by allowing vertices to have attributes that may influence the opinion dynamics. We start by establishing sufficient conditions for the existence of a stationary opinion distribution on any fixed graph, and then provide an increasingly detailed characterization of its behavior by considering a sequence of directed random graphs having a local weak limit. Our most explicit results are obtained for graph sequences whose local weak limit is a marked Galton-Watson tree, in which case our model can be used to explain a variety of phenomena, for example, conditions under which consensus can be achieved, mechanisms in which opinions can become polarized, and the effect of disruptive stubborn agents on the formation of opinions.

description: The $μ$-RWELL is a single-amplification stage resistive Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detector (MPGD). The detector amplification element is realized with a single copper-clad polyimide foil micro-patterned with a blind hole (well) matrix and embedded in the readout PCB through a thin Diamond-Like-Carbon (DLC) sputtered resistive film. The introduction of the resistive layer, suppressing the transition from streamer to spark, allows to achieve large gains ($\geq$10$^4$) with a single amplification stage, while partially reducing the capability to stand high particle fluxes. The simplest resistive layout, designed for low-rate applications, is based on a single-resistive layer with edge grounding. At high particle fluxes this layout suffers of a non-uniform response. In order to get rid of such a limitation different current evacuation geometries have been designed. In this work we report the study of the performance of several high rate resistive layouts tested at the CERN H8-SpS and PSI $π$M1 beam test facilities. These layouts fulfill the requirements for the detectors at the HL-LHC and for the experiments at the next generation colliders FCC-ee/hh and CepC.

description: This dissertation is composed of three papers examining the predictors and consequences of increasing school segregation following widespread release from court ordered desegregation orders. Paper one investigates factors shaping districts’ choices to pursue release from desegregation orders. This serves to provide context for papers two and three, and to outline whether there are systematic differences between school districts that were released from orders and those that were not. Paper two tests whether release from court ordered desegregation orders coincided with racially disparate changes in elementary and middle school test scores. Paper three presents an analysis of how property taxes – an indicator of housing values - responded to release from desegregation orders.
The role of invasive plant species management in mined land reclamation
Creators: name: Polster, D. F.
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Invasive plant species can turn productive reclaimed areas into non-productive wastelands in a very short time. The disturbances associated with mining offer opportunities for invasive species to become established. Weeds such as Canada thistle, Dalmatian toadflax, burdock and knapweeds can infest reclaimed areas making them unsuitable for forage production either as pastures or for hay. Scotch broom can invade forest plantations or reclaimed areas, restricting tree growth. Weeds can degrade wildlife ranges, making areas reclaimed for use as wildlife habitat unsuitable. Strategies for the prevention of invasive species establishment on mine sites and for control of established plants need to address the cause of the infestation as well as persistent control programs. Management of invasive species starts with prevention of establishment. Invasive species may establish from contaminated seed, from seeds carried on muddy equipment from infested areas and by birds and other animals. The second strategy in the management of invasive species is to contain and eventually eliminate established plants. Working from the outliers in towards the centre of the populations making sure that established plants are prevented from flowering and setting seed is an effective strategy for eventually bringing weed infestations under control. Where established weed populations are widespread on the mine site, programs for management must seek to replace weed stands with stands of acceptable vegetation or the weeds will simply re-appear. This paper explores strategies for the management of invasive plant species on reclaimed mine sites.

description: Scattered records indicate that people keep stingless bees in Nepal, but there is no published information on the identity of the bees or their natural history. We investigated the occurrence of stingless bees in Nepal through field surveys across the Terai and Pahad regions (21 districts and 12 zones). We identified a single species, provisionally identified as Tetragonula iridipennis (Smith), in nine districts and seven zones. We document for the first time its nesting biology, knowledge of its behavior, and its potential distribution in Nepal. We found nests of T. iridipennis inside cavities of medium to very large canopy trees of economic and cultural importance, such as trees used as timber and animal feed. Niche models suggest a broad distribution of T. iridipennis in southern Nepal and, in combination with our field data, areas where it may be locally extinct and areas where it may have been introduced by humans.
Models of Reception in the Divine Audience of the Iliad

description: The Iliad in certain key passages construes the Olympian gods as an internal epic audience offering and exploring multiple configurations of audience response to the poem. Chapter 1 explores the special features of the divine audience in general terms and considers previous scholarship. Chapter 2 reads Zeus' provocation of Hera and Athena in Book 4 as a "metaperformative" provocation of the poet's audience. Chapters 3 argues that the audience's mental "viewing" experience is construed as attendance at a live spectacle where the gods also attend, a spectacle for which the duel in Book 3 provides a paradigm. Chapter 4 interprets the duel in Book 7 as a reevaluation of that paradigm, motivated intratextually by the internal audience of Apollo and Athena. Chapter 5 shows that the climactic duel in Book 22, and especially the passage describing Hector and Achilles circling Troy as the gods watch and discuss, problematizes the ethical stance of the extratextual audience. Chapter 6 argues that in the Iliad as a whole the poet uses "the gods" to model a shift in audience sympathy from pro-Achaean bias to pity for the Trojans.

description: We report on the characterization of torsional oscillators which use multi-walled carbon nanotubes as the spring elements. Through atomic-force-microscope force-distance measurements we are able to apply torsional strains to the nanotubes and measure their torsional spring constants and effective shear moduli. We find that the effective shear moduli cover a broad range, with the largest values near the theoretically predicted value. The data also suggest that the nanotubes are stiffened by repeated flexing.

Modernism’s Politics of Land: Settlement Colonialism and Migrant Mobility In the German Empire, from Prussian Poland to German Namibia, 1884-1918

description: This dissertation charts a spatial, architectural, and landscape history of German settlement colonialism (Siedlungskolonialismus) in the Prussian Polish Provinces and German South West Africa, between 1884 and 1918. It situates this study from the framework of Germany’s late nineteenth century project of internal colonization (innere Kolonisation), which forms an almost exact temporal parallel with Germany’s external colonial interventions and can be seen as an indispensable part of its broader apparatus, which points to new connections within its entangled fields of operation. Following several generations of German architects, planners, social scientists, and settlement practitioners (Ansiedlungspraktiker) working at the borders of empire, this dissertation asks how the colonial question of land shaped modern planning discourse at the turn of the century. Broadly speaking, I look at how state control over the freedom of movement, colonial land reclamation, and the resistance these interventions encountered contoured modernism’s politics of land. This study illustrates how the languages of German architectural and planning modernism were marked by asymmetric and discordant processes of colonial spatialization—a multivalent transfiguration of the landscape in which the local, indigenous, and pre-colonial populations played a central, if often unacknowledged, role. This project seeks in turn to read that resistance, as interlocutor, back into the history of German colonial intervention in the two regions under discussion in this study. Finally, I argue that placing these episodes together within the same discursive framework, tracing the spatiality and aesthetics of German imperial expansion from the analytic of settlement, opens up a new set of questions regarding the role of enclosure and its epistemologies in architectural modernism. This brings the often-sidelined issue of agrarian modernity and the disciplining of the landscape (in the Foucauldian sense), to bear on modern architectural histories.

Animal magnetic sensitivity and magnetic displacement experiments

description: Compelling evidence that animals use magnetic maps for navigation comes from magnetic displacement experiments in which animals are exposed to magnetic signatures (combinations of magnetic intensity, inclination, and occasionally, declination) that exist in different geographic regions. Diverse species respond to magnetic displacements as if they have been geographically displaced. In a recent paper, Schneider et al.4 argue that, if one assumes that sensitivity to variations in magnetic fields is low, then most magnetic signatures mark larger areas than researchers expect, and the same signatures might exist at multiple geographic locations. (Note that they use ‘sensitivity’ to mean the ability to discriminate between similar signals rather than the ability to detect a minimal signal). In their view, most magnetic signatures used previously are too ambiguous for animals to interpret. This opinion is puzzling, because, if true, then animals would presumably respond to these ‘ambiguous’ magnetic signatures with confusion and disorientation, rather than with directed movements that make sense in the context of their movement ecology, as is observed. This apparent contradiction can be resolved by recognizing that the sensitivity used by Schneider et al. deviates significantly from estimates derived empirically. Here we discuss evidence from the literature that animals may be considerably more sensitive to magnetic field parameters than analyses by Schneider et al. assume.
