description: Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease which may appear in early life with structural abnormalities in lung tissues. We propose to detect these abnormalities using a texture classification approach. Our method is a cascade of two convolutional neural networks. The first network detects the presence of abnormal tissues. The second network identifies the type of the structural abnormalities: bronchiectasis, atelectasis or mucus plugging.We also propose a network computing pixel-wise heatmaps of abnormality presence learning only from the patch-wise annotations. Our database consists of CT scans of 194 subjects. We use 154 subjects to train our algorithms and the 40 remaining ones as a test set. We compare our method with random forest and a single neural network approach. The first network reaches an accuracy of 0,94 for disease detection, 0,18 higher than the random forest classifier and 0,37 higher than the single neural network. Our cascade approach yields a final class-averaged F1-score of 0,33, outperforming the baseline method and the single network by 0,10 and 0,12.

description: A renormalizable theory of quantum gravity coupled to a dilaton and conformal matter in two space-time dimensions is analyzed. The theory is shown to be exactly solvable classically. Included among the exact classical solutions are configurations describing the formation of a black hole by collapsing matter. The problem of Hawking radiation and backreaction of the metric is analyzed to leading order in a $1/N$ expansion, where $N$ is the number of matter fields. The results suggest that the collapsing matter radiates away all of its energy before an event horizon has a chance to form, and black holes thereby disappear from the quantum mechanical spectrum. It is argued that the matter asymptotically approaches a zero-energy ``bound state'' which can carry global quantum numbers and that a unitary $S$-matrix including such states should exist.

description: We derive equations of motion for the reduced density matrix of a heavy quarkonium in contact with a quark-gluon plasma in thermal equilibrium. These equations allow in particular a proper treatment of the regime when the temperature of the plasma is comparable to the binding energy of the quarkonium. These equations are used to study how the quarkonium approaches equilibrium with the plasma, and we discuss the corresponding entropy increase, or free energy decrease, depending on the temperature regime. The effect of collisions can be accounted for by the generalization of the imaginary potential introduced in previous studies, and from which collision rates are derived. An important outcome of the present analysis is that this imaginary potential has a sizeable dependence on the energy of the relevant transitions.

description: The Biham-Middleton-Levine (BML) traffic model is a simple two-dimensional, discrete Cellular Automaton (CA) that has been used to study self-organization and phase transitions arising in traffic flows. From the computational point of view, the BML model exhibits the usual features of discrete CA, where the state of the automaton are updated according to simple rules that depend on the state of each cell and its neighbors. In this paper we study the impact of various optimizations for speeding up CA computations by using the BML model as a case study. In particular, we describe and analyze the impact of several parallel implementations that rely on CPU features, such as multiple cores or SIMD instructions, and on GPUs. Experimental evaluation provides quantitative measures of the payoff of each technique in terms of speedup with respect to a plain serial implementation. Our findings show that the performance gap between CPU and GPU implementations of the BML traffic model can be reduced by clever exploitation of all CPU features.

description: In this project we designed and made medicine-like molecules that mimic the sphingolipids to determine whether the modulation of sphingolipids can treat metabolic disease-associated fatty liver disease. These molecules were tested in a representative cell-based fatty liver model we developed to screen for lipid lowering effects. These efforts have uncovered a new class of molecule which modulates sphingolipids and independently reduces lipid levels in liver cells. Overall, this work has lead to the discovery of a new potential medicine class which has the potential to treat MAFLD through two independent modes.

description: Motivated by a possible relativistic string description of hadrons we use a discretised light-cone quantisation and Lanczos algorithm to investigate the phase structure of phi^3 matrix field theory in the large N limit. In 1+1 dimensions we confirm the existence of Polyakov's non-critical string theory at the boundary between parton-like and string-like phases, finding critical exponents for longitudinal oscillations equal to or consistent with those given by a mean field argument. The excitation spectrum is finite, possibly discrete. We calculate light-cone structure functions and find evidence that the probability Q(x) of a parton in the string carrying longitudinal momentum fraction between x and x+dx has support on all 0

description: We introduce and study action of quantum groups on skew polynomial rings and related rings of quotients. This leads to a ``q-deformation'' of the Gel'fand-Kirillov conjecture which we partially prove. We propose a construction of automorphisms of certain non-commutaive rings of quotients coming from complex powers of quantum group generators; this is applied to explicit calculation of singular vectors in Verma modules over $U_{q}(\gtsl_{n+1})$. We finally give a definition of a $q-$connection with coefficients in a ring of skew polynomials and study the structure of quantum group modules twisted by a $q-$connection.

Gauged Hyperinstantons and Monopole Equations

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The monopole equations in the dual abelian theory of the N=2 gauge-theory, recently proposed by Witten as a new tool to study topological invariants, are shown to be the simplest elements in a class of instanton equations that follow from the improved topological twist mechanism introduced by the authors in previous papers. When applied to the N=2 sigma-model, this twisting procedure suggested the introduction of the so-called hyperinstantons, or triholomorphic maps. When gauging the sigma-model by coupling it to the vector multiplet of a gauge group G, one gets gauged hyperinstantons that reduce to the Seiberg-Witten equations in the flat case and G=U(1). The deformation of the self-duality condition on the gauge-field strength due to the monopole-hyperinstanton is very similar to the deformation of the self-duality condition on the Riemann curvature previously observed by the authors when the hyperinstantons are coupled to topological gravity. In this paper the general form of the hyperinstantonic equations coupled to both gravity and gauge multiplets is presented.

Time & Change in the Mass-Energy Gravity Framework: A Timeless Universe Perspective
Creators: name: Shreenan-Dyck, Chris
Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2025
Subjects: classificationCode: 490204
subject: Mathematical aspects of general relativity

description: This paper presents a novel interpretation of time within the Mass-Energy Gravity (MEG) framework, challenging the conventional notion of time as a fundamental dimension. Instead, it proposes that time is an emergent property of energy-density interactions and sequential state changes. The MEG model replaces the passage of time with relational changes in mass-energy distributions, preserving causality while eliminating the need for an independent temporal axis.

The paper further explores relativistic time dilation as an effect of energy-density variations, explains the connection between entropy and timelessness, and addresses how change persists even in a universe without intrinsic time. This perspective redefines how we understand motion, sequence, and the evolution of cosmic structures, offering testable predictions to distinguish MEG’s timeless paradigm from traditional time-dependent physics.

description: Positioned within the context of educational reform in Iran, the study explores shifts in secondary school English language teachers’ practices as they trialled aspects of task-based pedagogy during a short professional learning intervention. Engeström’s (1996, 2001) third generation activity theory is used to investigate the relationship between teachers’ beliefs and their use of communicative pedagogical practices. The results reveals small changes in the teachers’ practices despite their focus on literacy, accuracy and controlled classroom interactions. The results will highlight the need for greater flexibility in adapting communicative practices and inform policy and program implementation processes to support sustainable teaching reforms.

description: In 2008, Kauffman and Lomonaco introduce the concepts of a knot mosaic and the mosaic number of a knot or link, the smallest integer $n$ such that a knot or link can be represented on an $n$-mosaic. In arXiv:1702.06462, the authors explore space-efficient knot mosaics and the tile number of a knot or link, the smallest number of non-blank tiles necessary to depict the knot or link on a mosaic. They determine bounds for the tile number in terms of the mosaic number. In this paper, we focus specifically on prime knots with mosaic number 6. We determine a complete list of these knots, provide a minimal, space-efficient knot mosaic for each of them, and determine the tile number (or minimal mosaic tile number) of each of them.

description: Since 2007 farmgate milk prices in EU have become much more volatile and their seasonal pattern has stopped being so explicit. The purpose of this research is to test the hypothesis that seasonality still plays an important role in shaping farmgate milk prices in EU while its amplitude decreases together with the growing integration of the EU milk market with the global market. The aforementioned issues are investigated using Census X-12 procedure of price decomposition and panel random effects model. The results indicate that after 2007 the role of seasonality in determining EU farmgate milk prices has significantly decreased which partially results from the higher integration of the EU milk market with the global market. Nevertheless, seasonality remains an important factor determining the farmgate milk prices in EU. It can be expected that with the further globalization of the milk market, the significance of seasonality in determining farmgate milk prices in EU will be diminishing.

The educational value and benefit of a punch biopsy simulation

Year: 2024

description: Simulations are a key component of medical training as they allow medical students to practice hands-on skills in a controlled environment. This simulation focused on a punch biopsy, which is a procedure performed in many medical specialties, primarily Dermatology, to evaluate a full-thickness portion of the skin for various medical conditions. Thirteen medical students participated in this simulation, where they learned about and performed a 4mm punch biopsy on a skin substitute (pigs feet) followed by suture training. We accessed the educational benefits of the simulation through an anonymous pre- and post- survey, consisting of the same ten questions about the simulation and general information regarding a punch biopsy. Overall, the results showed an increase in student understanding after the simulation for all ten questions. Students reported the greatest understanding in their ability to explain a punch biopsy procedure steps to a patient and the least understanding in the healing process after the procedure. Although only a small sample set, this data demonstrates how simulations can enhance the education of medical students. Specifically, simulations are vital in learning hands-on procedural skills that cannot be taught through didactic courses with the added benefit of increasing patient safety. We hope to see the continued use of simulations in medical training and encourage an increase in the quantity and assortment of simulations offered to medical students.

Nodes as Composite Operators in Matrix Models

description: Riemann surfaces with nodes can be described by introducing simple composite operators in matrix models. In the case of the Kontsevich model, it is sufficient to add the quadratic, but ``non-propagating'', term (tr[X])^2 to the Lagrangian. The corresponding Jenkins-Strebel differentials have pairwise identified simple poles. The result is in agreement with a conjecture formulated by Kontsevich and recently investigated by Arbarello and Cornalba that the set ${\cal M}_{m*,s}$ of ribbon graphs with s faces and $m*=(m_0,m_1,\ldots,m_j,\ldots)$ vertices of valencies $(1,3,\ldots,2j+1,\ldots)$ ``can be expressed in terms of Mumford-Morita classes'': one gets an interpretation for univalent vertices. I also address the possible relationship with a recently formulated theory of constrained topological gravity.

description: Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are recently emerged 2D electronic systems with various novel properties, such as spin-valley locking, circular dichroism, valley Hall effects, Ising superconductivity. The reduced dimensionality and large effective masses further produce unconventional many-body interaction effects. Although recent hole transport measurements in WSe$_2$ indicate strong interactions in the valence bands, many-body interaction effects, particularly in the conduction bands, remain elusive to date. Here, for the first time, we perform transport measurements up to a magnetic field of $29$T to study the massive Dirac electron Landau levels (LL) in layer-polarized MoS$_2$ samples with mobilities of $22000$cm$^2$/(V$\cdot$s) at $1.5$K and densities of $\sim10^{12}$cm$^{-2}$. With decreasing the density, we observe LL crossing induced valley ferrimagnet-to-ferromagnet transitions, as a result of the interaction enhancement of the g-factor from $5.64$ to $21.82$. Near integer ratios of Zeeman-to-cyclotron energies, we discover LL anticrossings due to the formation of quantum Hall Ising ferromagnets, the valley polarizations of which appear to be reversible by tuning the density or an in-plane magnetic field. Our results provide compelling evidence for many-body interaction effects in the conduction bands of monolayer MoS$_2$ and establish a fertile ground for exploring strongly correlated phenomena of massive Dirac electrons.

description: It is shown that the effective string recently introduced to describe the long distance dynamics of 3D gauge systems in the confining phase has an intriguing description in terms of models of 2D self-avoiding walks in the dense phase. The deconfinement point, where the effective string becomes N=2 supersymmetric, may then be interpreted as the tricritical Theta point where the polymer chain undergoes a collapse transition. As a consequence, a universal value of the deconfinement temperature is predicted.

description: An efficient and eco-friendly procedure for the synthesis of 2-amino-5-oxo-4-aryl-4H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]chromene-3-carboxamide has been developed through a one-pot three-component condensation of 4-hydroxycoumarin with aldehydes and cyanoacetamide, in the presence of catalytic amount of polystyrene-supported p-toluenesulfonic acid (PS-PTSA) as a highly active and reusable heterogeneous acid catalyst in EtOH at 80 °C conditions. This new procedure offers several advantages such as shorter reaction times, excellent yields, a wide range of functional group tolerance, easy experimental work-up procedure, operationally simple under metal-free reaction conditions and C-C/C-O bond formation. The catalyst can be recovered and reused for at least four runs without any significant impact on the product yields.

N-point matrix elements of dynamical vertex operators of the higher spin XXZ model

description: We extend the concept of conjugate vertex operators, first introduced by Dotsenko in the case of the bosonization of the $su(2)$ conformal field theory, to the bosonization of the dynamical vertex operators (type II in the classification of the Kyoto school) of the higher spin XXZ model. We show that the introduction of the conjugate vertex operators leads to simpler expressions for the N-point matrix elements of the dynamical vertex operators, that is, without redundant Jackson integrals that arise from the insertion of screening charges. In particular, the two-point matrix element can be represented without any integral.

description: A real-space phase field model combining Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equation and time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau equation is developed to investigate the evolution of ferromagnetic domains and martensitic twin structures in a ferromagnetic shape memory alloy at different lengthscales. Both domain and twin structures are obtained by simultaneously solving for minimization of magnetic, elastic, and magnetoelastic coupling energy terms via a nonlinear finite element method. The model is applied to simulate magneto-structural evolution within a nanoparticle and a bulk single-crystal of the alloy Ni2MnGa, which are subjected to mechanical strains. It is shown that a nanoparticle contains magnetic vortex structures within a single twin variant, whereas for a bulk crystal both 90° and 180° domain structures are present within multiple twin variants.

description: We investigate the explicit construction of the $WB_{2}$ algebra, which is closed and associative for all values of the central charge $c$, using the Jacobi identity and show the agreement with the results studied previously. Then we illustrate a realization of $c=\frac{5}{2}$ free fermion model, which is $m \rightarrow \infty$ limit of unitary minimal series, $c ( WB_{2} )=\frac{5}{2} (1-\frac{12}{ (m+3)(m+4) })$ based on the cosets $( \hat{B_{2}} \oplus \hat{B_{2}}, \hat{B_{2} })$ at level $(1,m).$ We confirm by explicit computations that the bosonic currents in the $ WB_{2}$ algebra are indeed given by the Casimir operators of $\hat{B_{2}}$ .

description: Explicit expressions for the generators of the quantum superalgebra $U_q[gl(n/m)]$ acting on a class of irreducible representations are given. The class under consideration consists of all essentially typical representations: for these a Gel'fand-Zetlin basis is known. The verification of the quantum superalgebra relations to be satisfied is shown to reduce to a set of $q$-number identities.

description: Identifying objectively measurable seasonal changes in 24-h activity patterns (rest-activity rhythms or RARs) that occur in seasonal affective disorder (SAD) could help guide research and practice towards new monitoring tools or prevention targets. We quantified RARs from actigraphy data using non-parametric and extended cosine based approaches, then compared RARs between people with SAD and healthy controls in the summer (n = 70) and winter seasons (n = 84). We also characterized the within-person seasonal RAR changes that occurred in the SAD (n = 19) and control (n = 26) participants who contributed repeated measures. Only controls had significant winter increases in RAR fragmentation (intra-daily variability; in controls mean winter-summer changes (log scale) = 0.05, 0.21 standard deviation, p = 0.03). In SAD participants only, estimated evening settling times (down-mesor) were an average of 30 min earlier in the winter compared with the summer (1-h standard deviation, p = 0.045). These RAR characteristics correlated with greater fatigue (Spearman r = 0.36) but not depression symptom severity. Additional research is needed to ascertain why healthy controls, but not people with SAD, appear to have increased RAR fragmentation in the winter. People with SAD lacked this increase in RAR fragmentation, and instead had earlier evening setting in the winter. Prospective and intervention studies with greater temporal resolution are warranted to ascertain how these seasonal behavioral differences relate to fatigue pathophysiology in SAD. Future research is needed to determine whether extending the winter active period, even in relatively fragmented bouts, could help reduce the fatigue symptoms common in SAD.

description: We theoretically predict and experimentally verify the illusion of transforming the magnetic signature of a 3D object into that of another arbitrary object. This is done by employing negative-permeability materials, which we demonstrate that can be emulated by tailored sets of currents. The experimental transformation of the magnetic response of a ferromagnet into that of its antagonistic material, a superconductor, is presented to confirm the theory. The emulation of negative-permeability materials by currents provides a new pathway for designing devices for controlling magnetic fields in unprecedented ways.

description: The prevalence of diet-related diseases together with global population growth and the imbalance of ecosystems determine an urgent need to change existing dietary patterns and make food market more sustainable. A widely available alternative to food of animal origin are plant sources of protein, including pulses. The aim of this paper was to analyse the global pulses market and to review programs encouraging the increase of pulses consumption. The production and consumption of this food were analysed globally, regionally, and in selected countries using FAOSTAT data. The situation on the Polish market was presented additionally on the base of GUS (Central Statistical Office) data. Finally, the SWOT method was used to assess the market and indicate the possibility of giving up part of the meat consumption for pulses.

description: We present results of a high resolution study of the filamentary infrared dark cloud G192.76+00.10 in the S254-S258 OB complex in several molecular species tracing different physical conditions. These include three isotopologues of carbon monoxide (CO), ammonia (NH$_3$), carbon monosulfide (CS). The aim of this work is to study the general structure and kinematics of the filamentary cloud, its fragmentation and physical parameters. The gas temperature is derived from the NH$_3 $ $(J,K) = (1,1), (2,2)$ and $^{12}$CO(2--1) lines and the $^{13}$CO(1--0), $^{13}$CO(2--1) emission is used to investigate the overall gas distribution and kinematics. Several dense clumps are identified from the CS(2--1) data. Values of the gas temperature lie in the ranges $10-35$ K, column density $N(\mathrm{H}_2)$ reaches the value 5.1 10$^{22}$ cm$^{-2}$. The width of the filament is of order 1 pc. The masses of the dense clumps range from $ \sim 30 $ M$_\odot$ to $ \sim 160 $ M$_\odot$. They appear to be gravitationally unstable. The molecular emission shows a gas dynamical coherence along the filament. The velocity pattern may indicate longitudinal collapse.
