description: The aim of the project is to tell and reflect the different histories of feminist theory. To this end, conversations are held with protagonists who had and have a formative influence on feminist theories. In engaging with these scholars, we wish to delve deeper not only into the ideas and concepts that form the key basis of these theories but also to explore the historical contexts, collective thinking, political practices, and historical controversies that enabled them at the time. The conversations bring forth exigent questions around power, inequality, and violence, intersectionality, the relation of sex, gender, and sexuality, or the critique of binary thinking. We discuss the contributions of feminism to analyzing and challenging significant differences other than gender, such as race, class, nationality, religion, and caste. The project is rooted in oral history and philosophical exchange. It has value for those of us interested in the history of feminist theory and in feminism as a resourceful way of challenging dominant knowledges and creating different ones.

description: It is shown that the integrable discrete Schwarzian KP (dSKP) equation which constitutes an algebraic superposition formula associated with, for instance, the Schwarzian KP hierarchy, the classical Darboux transformation and quasi-conformal mappings encapsulates nothing but a fundamental theorem of ancient Greek geometry. Thus, it is demonstrated that the connection with Menelaus' theorem and, more generally, Clifford configurations renders the dSKP equation a natural object of inversive geometry on the plane. The geometric and algebraic integrability of dSKP lattices and their reductions to lattices of Menelaus-Darboux, Schwarzian KdV, Schwarzian Boussinesq and Schramm type is discussed. The dSKP and discrete Schwarzian Boussinesq equations are shown to represent discretizations of families of quasi-conformal mappings.

description: Background field methods provide an important nonperturbative formalism for the determination of hadronic properties which are complementary to matrix-element calculations. However, new challenges are encountered when utilising a fermion action exposed to additive mass renormalisations. In this case, the background field can induce an undesired field-dependent additive mass renormalisation that acts to change the quark mass as the background field is changed. For example, in a calculation utilising Wilson fermions in a uniform background magnetic field, the Wilson term introduced a field-dependent renormalisation to the quark mass which manifests itself in an unphysical increase of the neutral-pion mass for large magnetic fields. Herein, the clover fermion action is studied to determine the extent to which the removal of $\mathcal{O}(a)$ discretisation errors suppresses the field-dependent changes to the quark mass. We illustrate how a careful treatment of nonperturbative improvement is necessary to resolve this artefact of the Wilson term. Using the $32^3 \times 64$ dynamical-fermion lattices provided by the PACS-CS Collaboration we demonstrate how our technique suppresses the unphysical mass renormalisation over a broad range of magnetic field strengths.

description: The aim of this review is to demonstrate that there exists a coherent picture of strong interactions, based on instantons.

The discussion of the importance of instanton-induced interactions in soft high-energy scattering is new.

description: Recently, discrepancies of up to $4\,σ$ between the different determinations of the Cabibbo angle were observed. This "Cabibbo-angle anomaly" could be explained by lepton flavour universality (LFU) violating New Physics (NP) in the neutrino sector. However, modified neutrino couplings to Standard Model gauge bosons also affect many other observables sensitive to LFU violation which have to be taken into account in order to assess the viability of this explanation. Therefore, we perform a model-independent global analysis in a Bayesian approach and find that the tension in the Cabibbo angle is significantly reduced, while the agreement with other data is also mostly improved. In fact, non-zero modifications of electron and muon neutrino couplings are preferred at more than 99\% CL. Still, since constructive effects in the muon sector are necessary, simple models with right-handed neutrinos (whose global fit we update as a by-product) cannot fully explain data, pointing towards more sophisticated NP models.

description: The present paper is devoted to investigation of the classical capacity of infinite-dimensional quantum measurement channels. A number of usable conditions are introduced that enable us to apply previously obtained general results to specific models, in particular, to the multi-mode bosonic Gaussian measurement channels. An explicit formula for the classical capacity of the Gaussian measurement channel is obtained in this paper without assuming the global gauge symmetry, solely under certain "threshold condition". The result is illustrated by the capacity computation for one-mode squeezed-noise heterodyne measurement channel.

description: It appears that the Lyman alpha forest is becoming thick at a redshift of about 5.5, cutting off the higher redshift intergalactic medium from view in neutral hydrogen. However, the effects of star formation at higher redshift are still readable in the intergalactic metal lines. In this paper I use observations of 32 quasars with emission redshifts in the range 2.31 to 5.86 to study the evolution of the intergalactic metal density from z = 1.5 to z = 5.5. The C IV column density distribution function is consistent with being invariant throughout this redshift range. From direct integration, I determine Omega_CIV to be in the range (2.5 - 7) \times 10^{-8} and Omega_SiIV in the range (0.9 - 3) \times 10^{-8} between z = 1.5 and z = 5. The metallicity at z = 5 exceeds 3.5 \times 10^{-4}, which in turn implies that this fraction of the universal massive star formation took place beyond this redshift. This is sufficient to have ionized the intergalactic medium.

description: In integrated surveillance systems based on visual cameras, the mitigation of adverse weather conditions is an active research topic. Within this field, rain removal algorithms have been developed that artificially remove rain streaks from images or video. In order to deploy such rain removal algorithms in a surveillance setting, one must detect if rain is present in the scene. In this paper, we design a system for the detection of rainfall by the use of surveillance cameras. We reimplement the former state-of-the-art method for rain detection and compare it against a modern CNN-based method by utilizing 3D convolutions. The two methods are evaluated on our new AAU Visual Rain Dataset (VIRADA) that consists of 215 hours of general-purpose surveillance video from two traffic crossings. The results show that the proposed 3D CNN outperforms the previous state-of-the-art method by a large margin on all metrics, for both of the traffic crossings. Finally, it is shown that the choice of region-of-interest has a large influence on performance when trying to generalize the investigated methods. The AAU VIRADA dataset and our implementation of the two rain detection algorithms are publicly available at https://bitbucket.org/aauvap/aau-virada.

description: An experiment was conducted to evaluate the performance of buffalo calves and cow calves supplementing Urea Molasses Block (UMB) with straw based diet. Three cow calves (average 1 year & 8 months age and 111 kg body weight) and three buffalo calves (average 1 year & 10 months age and 89 kg body weight) were grouped into A and B, respectively and fed for 60 days. It was found that, the DMI (kg/h/d) was 5.66±1.18 and 6.10±0.99, respectively in group A and B (p>0.05). The DMI in 1st and 2nd fortnight of the experiment in group A and B were 5.77±0.31 and 6.17±0.33; 4.96±0.43 and 5.77±0.39, respectively (p<0.01). But, the DMI in 3rd and 4th fortnight differs nonsignificantly (p>0.05). At the end of the experiment, the final body weight for group A and group B were 132.6±11.96 and 113±8.19 kg, respectively (p>0.05). The body weight gain per day for both groups were 0.36±0.05 and 0.40±0.05 kg, respectively (p>0.05). The average heart girth gain per day in group A and group B were 0.24±0.02 and 0.30±0.03 cm, respectively (p>0.05). The average wither height gain per day was 0.075±0.005 and 0.059±0.005 cm in group A and B, respectively (p<0.05). The average body length gain per day for group A and group B were 0.31±0.03 and 0.36±0.04 cm, respectively (p>0.05). The growth performance of buffalo calves is better than cow calves by feeding UMB with straw based diet.

description: The complex transverse water proton magnetization subject to diffusion-encoding magnetic field gradient pulses in a heterogeneous medium such as brain tissue can be modeled by the Bloch-Torrey partial differential equation. The spatial integral of the solution of this equation in realistic geometry provides a gold-standard reference model for the diffusion MRI signal arising from different tissue micro-structures of interest. A closed form representation of this reference diffusion MRI signal has been derived twenty years ago, called Matrix Formalism that makes explicit the link between the Laplace eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the biological cell and its diffusion MRI signal. In addition, once the Laplace eigendecomposition has been computed and saved, the diffusion MRI signal can be calculated for arbitrary diffusion-encoding sequences and b-values at negligible additional cost. Up to now, this representation, though mathematically elegant, has not been often used as a practical model of the diffusion MRI signal, due to the difficulties of calculating the Laplace eigendecomposition in complicated geometries. In this paper, we present a simulation framework that we have implemented inside the MATLAB-based diffusion MRI simulator SpinDoctor that efficiently computes the Matrix Formalism representation for realistic neurons using the finite elements method. We show the Matrix Formalism representation requires around a few hundred eigenmodes to match the reference signal computed by solving the Bloch-Torrey equation when the cell geometry comes from realistic neurons. As expected, the number of required eigenmodes to match the reference signal increases with smaller diffusion time and higher b-values. We gave the transformation that links the Laplace eigenfunctions to the eigenfunctions of the Bloch-Torrey operator and computed the Bloch-Torrey eigenfunctions and eigenvalues.

description: This study explored historical food availability/supply and the market demand for food. Secondary data was used for analyzing demand-supply gap. The average growth in rice production was 2.9% per year in 1971/72 to 2008/09, of which 93% was contributed by yield growth. The overall growth rate of area under food grain was 0.3% in 1971/72 to 2008/09. The overall food grain production growth rate is higher than population growth rate from 1971/72 to 2008/09. The own price and income elasticities of rice were -0.108 and 0.199 respectively. It was projected that upto 2021, the annual demand for food exceed the supply of food which were -0.28% for rice and -1.76% for wheat. That implies the demands are greater than the supplies for both crops.

description: The study was undertaken to examine the best fitted ARIMA model that could be used to make efficient forecast boro rice production in Bangladesh from 2008-09 to 2012-13. It appeared from the study that local, modern and total boro time series are 1st order homogenous stationary. It is found from the study that the ARIMA (0,1,0) ARIMA (0,1,3) and ARIMA (0,1,2) are the best for local, modern and total boro rice production respectively. It is observed from the analysis that short term forecasts are more efficient for ARIMA models. The production uncertainty of boro rice can be minimizing if production can be forecasted well and necessary steps can be taken against losses. The government and producer as well use ARIMA methods to forecast future production more accurately in the short run.

description: We show two examples in which the dynamical Casimir effect can be achieved by modulating the Kerr or higher order nonlinearities. In the first case the cavity field is coupled to an arbitrary number of qubits or an harmonic oscillator via the dipole interaction. In the second case, the modulation of the nonlinearities is accompanied by the off-resonance modulation of the cavity frequency. We present the analytic description of the phenomenon and supplement it with numeric simulations, demonstrating that photons can be created from vacuum and the resulting hyper-Poissonian photon statistics is very different from the squeezed vacuum state.

description: Spin waves are excitations in ferromagnetic media that have been proposed as information carriers in hybrid spintronic devices with much lower operation power than conventional charge-based electronics. Their wave nature can be exploited in majority gates by using interference for computation. However, a scalable spin-wave majority gate that can be co-integrated alongside conventional electronics is still lacking. Here, we demonstrate a sub-micron inline spin-wave majority gate with fan-out. Time-resolved imaging of the magnetization dynamics by scanning transmission x-ray microscopy illustrates the device operation. All-electrical spin-wave spectroscopy further demonstrates majority gates with sub-micron dimensions, reconfigurable input and output ports, and frequency-division multiplexing. Challenges for hybrid spintronic computing systems based on spin-wave majority gates are discussed.

description: We present a 2D bosonization duality using the language of tensor networks. Specifically, we construct a tensor network operator (TNO) that implements an exact 2D bosonization duality. The primary benefit of the TNO is that it allows for bosonization at the level of quantum states. Thus, we use the TNO to provide an explicit algorithm for bosonizing fermionic projected entangled pair states (fPEPs). A key step in the algorithm is to account for a choice of spin-structure, encoded in a set of bonds of the bosonized fPEPS. This enables our tensor network approach to bosonization to be applied to systems on arbitrary triangulations of orientable 2D manifolds.

description: We investigate cascades of isochronous pitchfork bifurcations of straight-line librating orbits in some two-dimensional Hamiltonian systems with mixed phase space. We show that the new bifurcated orbits, which are responsible for the onset of chaos, are given analytically by the periodic solutions of the Lamé equation as classified in 1940 by Ince. In Hamiltonians with C_${2v}$ symmetry, they occur alternatingly as Lamé functions of period 2K and 4K, respectively, where 4K is the period of the Jacobi elliptic function appearing in the Lamé equation. We also show that the two pairs of orbits created at period-doubling bifurcations of touch-and-go type are given by two different linear combinations of algebraic Lamé functions with period 8K.

Of particular interest is the evolution of small-scale structures where the pressure and superfluid properties of the dark matter fluid are prominent. We compare the growth of structures in these models with the standard cold dark matter paradigm and non-superfluid dark matter. The equations for superfluid hydrodynamics were computed numerically in an expanding $Λ$CDM background with spherical symmetry; the effect of various superfluid fractions, temperatures, interactions, and masses on the collapse of structures was taken into consideration. We derived the linear perturbation of the superfluid equations, giving further insights into the dynamics of the superfluid collapse. We found that while a conventional dark matter fluid with self-interactions and finite temperatures experiences a suppression in the growth of structures on smaller scales, as expected due to the presence of pressure terms, a superfluid can collapse much more efficiently than was naively expected due to its ability to suppress the growth of entropy perturbations and thus gradients in the thermal pressure. We also found that the cores of the dark matter halos initially become more superfluid during the collapse, but eventually reach a point where the superfluid fraction falls sharply. The formation of superfluid dark matter halos surrounded by a normal fluid dark matter background is therefore disfavored by the present work.

description: Given a strictly increasing sequence $\mathbf{t}$ with entries from $[n]:=\{1,\ldots,n\}$, a parking completion is a sequence $\mathbf{c}$ with $|\mathbf{t}|+|\mathbf{c}|=n$ and $|\{t\in \mathbf{t}\mid t\le i\}|+|\{c\in \mathbf{c}\mid c\le i\}|\ge i$ for all $i$ in $[n]$. We can think of $\mathbf{t}$ as a list of spots already taken in a street with $n$ parking spots and $\mathbf{c}$ as a list of parking preferences where the $i$-th car attempts to park in the $c_i$-th spot and if not available then proceeds up the street to find the next available spot, if any. A parking completion corresponds to a set of preferences $\mathbf{c}$ where all cars park. We relate parking completions to enumerating restricted lattice paths and give formulas for both the ordered and unordered variations of the problem by use of a pair of operations termed \textbf{Join} and \textbf{Split}. Our results give a new volume formula for most Pitman-Stanley polytopes, and enumerate the signature parking functions of Ceballos and González D'León.

description: La finance  islamique  ne  cesse  de  s’affirmer  à  l’échelle  nationale  et  internationale en repensant la finance autrement. Une finance au service  de l’économie, favorisant la relation de partenariat entre les épargnants et  les  PME  du  Cameroun.  Cette  finance  dite  éthique  ou  socialement  responsable  vise  avant  tout  le  profit  et  la  création  des  richesses  dans  l’économie des nombreux pays tout en offrant de multiple produits et services. L’économie camerounaise n’en fait pas exception. Ainsi, cette recherche vise à identifier les  instruments  financiers  islamiques les plus adaptés aux  PME. Pour apporter les éléments de réponse à la question principale de recherche, nous avons opté pour une étude exploratoire dans le but d’affiner la mesure explicative d’appropriation des concepts et de renforcement des bases des postulats qui peuvent se transformer en hypothèses testables dans les études ultérieures. Et les résultats  issus  de  ce  travail  mettent en évidence les produits financiers islamiques phares  (Quardi Hassan, l’épargne islamique, mourabaha  et  ijara, Salam, Tawarruq et Mouchakara moutanaqi, Istisna’a et Wadi’a).

title: Human T cell responses to bone regenerating biomaterials
Creators: name: Roberts, Jessica
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2025

description: Enhanced bone healing and bone provision are fundamental therapeutic orthoplastic strategies for complex fracture management, and for post-oncological or traumatic composite wounds with critical bone loss. Such surgery remains highly challenging and potentially morbid, such that synthetic bone provision would have particular appeal. It could also be indicated to enhance prosthetic fitment after blast injury, and for restoration after digit or limb loss or congenital absence.

Regenerative medicine aims to improve the body’s inherent regenerative capacity after injury, or to replace damaged or lost tissues with fully functional, engineered ones, to address unmet clinical need. Bone requires both scaffold and cellular therapy options. Bioengineered tissues come in many forms, with allogenic mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) based biomaterials achieving successful osteogenesis in vitro, and in animal models in vivo.

Despite these advances, the T cell immune reactivity of a human host towards bone biomaterials remains unknown yet may present a critical barrier to the clinical translation of these promising therapies. Ethical investigation has been precluded through lack of a human in vitro model. Here, a novel, human, multicellular, in vitro, T cell response model was established. Host responses to osseoreconstructive fibronectin and laminin MSC biomaterials were defined across their differentiation into osteoblasts, for the first time. Subsequent, T cell responses to engineered immunomodulation of the allogenic biomaterial were examined.

These data demonstrate successful in vitro T cell modelling. MSC biomaterials triggered human T cell activation responses that increased with osteogenic differentiation. These responses were mixed encompassing regulatory, Thelper (Th) 1 and Th17 associated responses that were detectable by 5 days in vitro. Furthermore, manipulation of the biomaterial glycoprotein did not change the surface activation marker expression of T cells but revealed differences in the cytokine response. Less osteogenic differentiation of MSCs occurred on laminin biomaterials, highlighting the importance of fibronectin for functional presentation of bone morphogenic protein 2 (BMP-2) to guide successful osteogenesis. Finally, manipulation of the immune microenvironment, towards pro-inflammation, appeared to reduce the viability of the allogenic MSCs within the biomaterial, which may have consequences for biomaterial engraftment, longevity and function in vivo.

description: The increase in the level of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the atmosphere in the last centuries, and the subsequent increase in temperature, has been a widely studied area in the last few decades. Climate change has become a key item on the political agenda due to concerns regarding the sustainability of current human consumption for future generations. Consumption of food and agricultural goods constitutes an important part of household based GHG emissions, and the relatively low costs associated with environmental improvements make it an interesting area of study to understand behavioural changes. Despite general agreement on the need to curb the amount of GHG emissions worldwide, little evidence exists regarding the best instruments policymakers can employ to stimulate changes toward more sustainable consumption. The present work explores which instruments are most effective in fostering change to more environmentally friendly food consumption. The instruments tested are CO2 labelling, GHG abatement subsidy and product-specific bans. We used a simulated online shopping trip in supermarkets in the Greater London area in the United Kingdom, where respondents shopped in four product categories: cola, milk, meat (chicken and beef), and butter/margarine. Consumer preferences reveal that, in the presence of these instruments, quantity instruments performed better than price incentives and labelling.

description: We summarize our measurement of the mass of the exotic $1^{-+}$ hybrid meson using an improved Kogut-Susskind action. We show results from both quenched and dynamical quark simulations and compare with results from Wilson quarks. Extrapolation of these results to the physical quark mass allows comparison with experimental candidates for the $1^{-+}$ hybrid meson.

Clustered Variants of Hajós' Conjecture

description: Hajós conjectured that every graph containing no subdivision of the complete graph $K_{s+1}$ is properly $s$-colorable. This conjecture was disproved by Catlin. Indeed, the maximum chromatic number of such graphs is $Ω(s^2/\log s)$. We prove that $O(s)$ colors are enough for a weakening of this conjecture that only requires every monochromatic component to have bounded size (so-called clustered coloring). Our approach leads to more results. Say that a graph is an almost $(\leq 1)$-subdivision of a graph $H$ if it can be obtained from $H$ by subdividing edges, where at most one edge is subdivided more than once. Note that every graph with no $H$-subdivision does not contain an almost $(\leq 1)$-subdivision of $H$. We prove the following (where $s \geq 2$): (1) Graphs of bounded treewidth and with no almost $(\leq 1)$-subdivision of $K_{s+1}$ are $s$-choosable with bounded clustering. (2) For every graph $H$, graphs with no $H$-minor and no almost $(\leq 1)$-subdivision of $K_{s+1}$ are $(s+1)$-colorable with bounded clustering. (3) For every graph $H$ of maximum degree at most $d$, graphs with no $H$-subdivision and no almost $(\leq 1)$-subdivision of $K_{s+1}$ are $\max\{s+3d-5,2\}$-colorable with bounded clustering. (4) For every graph $H$ of maximum degree $d$, graphs with no $K_{s,t}$ subgraph and no $H$-subdivision are $\max\{s+3d-4,2\}$-colorable with bounded clustering. (5) Graphs with no $K_{s+1}$-subdivision are $(4s-5)$-colorable with bounded clustering. The first result shows that the weakening of Hajós' conjecture is true for graphs of bounded treewidth in a stronger sense; the final result is the first $O(s)$ bound on the clustered chromatic number of graphs with no $K_{s+1}$-subdivision.
