description: Analytical (rational) mechanics is the mathematical structure of Newtonian deterministic dynamics developed by D'Alembert, Langrange, Hamilton, Jacobi, and many other luminaries of applied mathematics. Diffusion as a stochastic process of an overdamped individual particle immersed in a fluid, initiated by Einstein, Smoluchowski, Langevin and Wiener, has no momentum since its path is nowhere differentiable. In this exposition, we illustrate how analytical mechanics arises in stochastic dynamics from a randomly perturbed ordinary differential equation $dX_t=b(X_t)dt+εdW_t$ where $W_t$ is a Brownian motion. In the limit of vanishingly small $ε$, the solution to the stochastic differential equation other than $\dot{x}=b(x)$ are all rare events. However, conditioned on an occurence of such an event, the most probable trajectory of the stochastic motion is the solution to Lagrangian mechanics with $\mathcal{L}=\|\dot{q}-b(q)\|^2/4$ and Hamiltonian equations with $H(p,q)=\|p\|^2+b(q)\cdot p$. Hamiltonian conservation law implies that the most probable trajectory for a "rare" event has a uniform "excess kinetic energy" along its path. Rare events can also be characterized by the principle of large deviations which expresses the probability density function for $X_t$ as $f(x,t)=e^{-u(x,t)/ε}$, where $u(x,t)$ is called a large-deviation rate function which satisfies the corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi equation. An irreversible diffusion process with $\nabla\times b\neq 0$ corresponds to a Newtonian system with a Lorentz force $\ddot{q}=(\nabla\times b)\times \dot{q}+1/2\nabla\|b\|^2$. The connection between stochastic motion and analytical mechanics can be explored in terms of various techniques of applied mathematics, for example, singular perturbations, viscosity solutions, and integrable systems.

description: The formation of Bose condensates far from equilibrium can play an important role in our understanding of collision experiments of heavy nuclei or for the evolution of the early universe. In the relativistic quantum world particle number changing processes can counteract Bose condensation, and there is a considerable debate about the relevance of this phenomenon in this context. We show that the involved question of Bose condensation from initial over-population can be answered for the example of scalar field theories. Condensate formation occurs as a consequence of an inverse particle cascade with a universal power-law spectrum. This particle transport towards low momenta is part of a dual cascade, in which energy is also transfered by weak wave turbulence towards higher momenta. To highlight the importance of number changing processes for the subsequent decay of the condensate, we also compare to non-relativistic theories with exact number conservation. We discuss the relevance of these results for nonabelian gauge theories.

description: High-dimensional integrals are usually solved with Monte Carlo algorithms although theory suggests that low discrepancy algorithms are sometimes superior. We report on numerical testing which compares low discrepancy and Monte Carlo algorithms on the evaluation of financial derivatives. The testing is performed on a Collateralized Mortgage Obligation (CMO) which is formulated as the computation of ten integrals of dimension up to 360. We tested two low discrepancy algorithms (Sobol and Halton) and two randomized algorithms (classical Monte Carlo and Monte Carlo combined with antithetic variables). We conclude that for this CMO the Sobol algorithm is always superior to the other algorithms. We believe that it will be advantageous to use the Sobol algorithm for many other types of financial derivatives. Our conclusion regarding the superiority of the Sobol algorithm also holds when a rather small number of sample points are used an important case in practice. We have built a software system called FINDER for computing high dimensional integrals Routines for computing Sobol points have been published However we incorporated major improvements in FINDER and we stress that the results reported here were obtained using this software. The software system FINDER runs on a network of heterogeneous workstations under PVM 3.2 (Parallel Virtual Machine). Since workstations are ubiquitous this is a cost effective way to do very large computations fast. The measured speedup is at least N for N workstations, N ≤ 25. The software can also be used to compute high dimensional integrals on a single workstation
P2P Video Synchronization in a Collaborative Virtual Environment

description: We have previously developed a collaborative virtual environment (CVE) for small-group virtual classrooms, intended for distance learning by geographically dispersed students. The CVE employs a peer-to-peer approach to the frequent real-time updates to the 3D virtual worlds required by avatar movements (fellow students in the same room are depicted by avatars). This paper focuses on our extension to the P2P model to support group viewing of lecture videos, called VECTORS, for Video Enhanced Collaboration for Team Oriented Remote Synchronization. VECTORS supports synchronized viewing of lecture videos, so the students all see 'the same thing at the same time', and can pause, rewind, etc. in synchrony while discussing the lecture material via 'chat'. We are particularly concerned with the needs of the technologically disenfranchised, e.g., whose only Web/Internet access if via dialup or other relatively low-bandwidth networking. Thus VECTORS employs semantically compressed videos with meager bandwidth requirements. Further, the videos are displayed as a sequence of JPEGs on the walls of a 3D virtual room, requiring fewer local multimedia resources than full motion MPEGs.
Explanation-Based Methods for Simplifying Intractable Theories
Creators: name: Ellman, Thomas
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1987
Subjects: Computer science

description: Existing machine learning programs possess only limited abilities to exploit previously acquired background knowledge. A technique called "explanation-based learning" (EBL) has recently been developed to address this problem. EBL is limited, however, by a requirement that the background knowledge meet restrictive conditions. EBL cannot operate without a complete, correct and tractable theory of the domain under study. In many cases no adequate domain theory can be found. The research proposed here will address this limitation. It will be primarily directed toward extending EBL methods to handle intractable theories. Techniques will be developed for using explanations of examples to make domain theories more tractable. The explanations will be used to find assumptions that can simplify intractable theories. A useful class of assumptions, called "optimistic assumptions," will be defined informally. A program will be developed to learn assumptions drawn from this class. The program will be tested in the domain of "hearts" and possibly other domains as well. This research will be significant inasmuch as the "optimistic" assumptions appear to be applicable to a wide variety of domains. The research will also be relevant to the problems of incomplete and incorrect theories as well as the problem of intractability.

description: The ordinary formalism for classical field theory is applied to dynamical group field theories. Focusing first on a local group field theory over one copy of SU(2) and, then, on more involved nonlocal theories (colored and non colored) defined over a tensor product of the same group, we address the issue of translation and dilatation symmetries and the corresponding Noether theorem. The energy momentum tensor and dilatation current are derived and their properties identified for each case.
Tumor endothelial marker 8 (TEM8) expression in tumor and endothelial cells

Publisher: name: University of Calgary
Year: 2008

description: Bibliography: p. 91-109
description: Tumor endothelial marker 8 (TEM8) is highly expressed in tumor vasculature, but not in other endothelial cells including those involved in normal physiological angiogenesis such as wound healing and corpus luteum formation. It has not been reported whether this is due to some intrinsic characteristic of the tumor endothelium or secondary to tumor microenvironmental factors. Screening of TEM8 levels in various cancer and endothelial cell lines used in this project revealed variable transcript level. Changes in level of expression of TEM8 transcripts in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were examined under the influence of such microenvironmental factors as hypoxia and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), the most potent pro-angiogenic agent. While hypoxia dramatically increased the levels of TEM8 in HUVECs, VEGF seemed to do so only moderately. TEM8 mRNA levels were elevated in HUVECs co­cultured with some breast cancer cell lines including, Hs578T, MDA MB 468, MDA MB 453s, MDA MB 231 and MDA MB 436. Contrary to that however, HUVECs co-cultured with the breast cancer cell lines, SKBR3, MCF-7 and BT-474 had no significant changes in TEM8 transcription. Induction of TEM8 was due to direct cell-cell contact rather than to secretion of soluble factors by the tumor cells. Interestingly, the TEM8 inducing breast cancer cell lines have a more aggressive phenotype than the non-inducing group. TEM8 may therefore be a marker of aggressiveness in breast cancer. Overexpression of TEM8 in HUVECs led to more rapid endothelial cell growth and, in contrast down-regulating the gene by AdshRNA resulted in reduced cell growth. Together, these data suggest that endothelial cell expression of TEM8 is a function of the tumor microenvironment. Its up­regulation in tumor-associated endothelial cells encourages their growth.

Vibration-based electromagnetic energy harvesters for MEMS applications
Creators: name: Khan, Syed Farid Ullah
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis investigates vibration-based electromagnetic energy harvesters (EMEHs) for application in low power autonomous sensors. It makes contributions pertaining to the development of a low cost fabrication technology, analytical modeling, simulations and characterization of EMEHs under harmonic and random vibrations. A novel, low cost, one mask fabrication technology devised in this thesis is used to develop a copper foil-type linear EMEH, and a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane type nonlinear EMEH. The voltage and power generated by these harvesters are comparable to existing EMEHs which use more involved fabrication processes. In the membrane type EMEH the inclusion of a more flexible PDMS membrane design reduces the harvester resonant frequency and makes it suitable for extracting energy from low level vibration environments. For acceleration levels greater than 0.1 g, this harvester exhibits a nonlinear behaviour. At higher levels of narrow band random excitations, the device therefore exhibits broadening of the load voltage spectrum in comparison to the response under relatively low levels of narrow band random excitations. Analytical models for linear EMEHs with non-uniform magnetic field for harmonic vibrations are developed. A simple analytical model based on Faraday’s law and uniform gradient of the normal component of the magnetic flux density is developed for EMEHs where the entire coil experiences approximately the same gradient of the normal component of the magnetic flux density. However, for EMEHs where the entire coil is not exposed to the same magnetic flux gradient a more robust model, based on the off-center analytical solution of the magnetic flux density is devised. The simulation results of the developed models are in good agreement with the experimental observations. Analytical models for linear and nonlinear EMEHs under random vibrations are derived. The models are parameterized such that they are applicable to all architectures of EMEHs and can be utilized for designing and performance estimation of EMEHs. Nonlinear harvesters with spring nonlinearity and with combined spring and damping nonlinearity are modeled using the statistical linearization method. The developed models are useful in investigating the effects of the mechanical nonlinearity on the performance and bandwidth of the harvesters under random vibrations.

description: Monte Carlo simulation is widely used to value complex financial instruments. An alternative to Monte Carlo is to use "low discrepancy" methods. Theory suggests that low discrepancy methods might be superior to the Monte Carlo method. We compared the performance of low discrepancy methods with Monte Carlo on a Collateralized Mortgage Obligation (CMO) with ten tranches. We found that a particular low discrepancy method based on Sobol points consistently outperforms Monte Carlo. Although our tests were for a CMO, we believe it will be advantageous to use the Sobol method for many other types of instruments. We have made major improvements in published routines for generating Sobol points which we have embedded in a software system called FINDER.

description: In the past year, several groups have observed evidence for long-range spin-triplet supercurrent in Josephson junctions containing ferromagnetic (F) materials. In our work, the spin-triplet pair correlations are created by non-collinear magnetizations between a central Co/Ru/Co "synthetic antiferromagnet" (SAF) and two outer thin F layers. Here we present data showing that the spin-triplet supercurrent is enhanced up to 20 times after our samples are subject to a large in-plane magnetizing field. This surprising result can be explained if the Co/Ru/Co SAF undergoes a "spin-flop" transition, whereby the two Co layer magnetizations end up perpendicular to the magnetizations of the two thin F layers. Direct experimental evidence for the spin-flop transition comes from scanning electron microscopy with polarization analysis and from spin-polarized neutron reflectometry.

description: We have calculated the s-wave scattering length of all the even isotopes of calcium (Ca) and barium (Ba), in order to investigate the prospect of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC). For Ca we have used an accurate molecular potential based on detailed spectroscopic data. Our calculations show that Ca does not provide other isotopes alternative to the recently Bose condensed 40Ca that suffers strong losses because of a very large scattering length. For Ba we show by using a model potential that the even isotopes cover a broad range of scattering lengths, opening the possibility of BEC for at least one of the isotopes.

description: We engineer compact SU(5) Grand Unified Theories in F-theory in which GUT-breaking is achieved by a discrete Wilson line. Because the internal gauge field is flat, these models avoid the high scale threshold corrections associated with hypercharge flux. Along the way, we exemplify the `local-to-global' approach in F-theory model building and demonstrate how the Tate divisor formalism can be used to address several challenges of extending local models to global ones. These include in particular the construction of G-fluxes that extend non-inherited bundles and the engineering of U(1) symmetries. We go beyond chirality computations and determine the precise (charged) massless spectrum, finding exactly three families of quarks and leptons but excessive doublet and/or triplet pairs in the Higgs sector (depending on the example) and vector-like exotics descending from the adjoint of SU(5)_{GUT}. Understanding why vector-like pairs persist in the Higgs sector without an obvious symmetry to protect them may shed light on new solutions to the mu problem in F-theory GUTs.

The complexity of definite elliptic problems with noisy data
Creators: name: Werschulz, Arthur G.
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1996
Subjects: Computer science

description: We study the complexity of 2mth order definite elliptic problems Lu=ƒ (with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions) over a d-dimensional domain Ω, error being measured in the H^m(Ω)-norm. The problem elements ƒ belong to the unit ball of W^{r,p}(Ω), where p ∈ [2, ∞] and r > d/p. Information consists of (possibly-adaptive) noisy evaluations of ƒ or the coefficients of L. The absolute error in each noisy evaluation is at most δ . We find that the nth minimal radius for this problem is proportional to n^{-r/d}+δ,and that a noisy finite element method with quadrature (FEMQ), which uses only function values, and not derivatives, is a minimal error algorithm. This noisy FEMQ can be efficiently implemented using multigrid techniques. Using these results, we find tight bounds on the ε-complexity (minimal cost of calculating an ε-approximation) for this problem, said bounds depending on the cost c(δ) of calculating a δ-noisy information value. As an example, if the cost of a δ-noisy evaluation is c(δ)=δ^{-s} (for s > 0), then the complexity is proportional to (1/ε)^{d/r+s}.

description: We demonstrate that single-photon as well as biphoton revivals are possible in a new class of dynamic optical systems-the so-called Glauber-Fock oscillator lattices. In these arrays, both Bloch-like oscillations and dynamic delocalization can occur which can be described in closed form. The bunching and anti-bunching response of path-entangled photons can be pre-engineered in such coupled optical arrangements and the possibility of emulating Fermionic behavior in this family of lattices is also considered. We elucidate these effects via pertinent examples and we discuss the prospect of experimentally observing these quantum interactions.

A Cure for Pathological Behavior in Games That Use Minimax
Creators: name: Abramson, Bruce
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1985
Subjects: Computer science

description: Minimax has long been the standard method of evaluating game tree nodes in game-playing programs. The general assumption underlying these programs is that deepening search improves play. Recent work has shown that this assumption is not always valid; for a large class of games and evaluation functions, deepening search decreases the probability of making a correct more. This phenomena is called game tree pathology. Two structural properties of game trees have been suggested as causes of pathology: independence among the values of sibling nodes, and uniform depth of win nodes. This paper examines the relationship between uniform in depth and pathology. A game-playing program is run using two different evaluation functions. The first recognizes wins only at the bottom level, the second at various levels throughout the tree. The minimax procedure behaves pathologically when the first function is used; the second shows no such pathology. This result constitutes the first experimental evidence linking uniform win depth to pathology. The effect of not recognizing wins until the bottom of the tree on the probability of making a correct decision is also analyzed. This analysis may lead to a general characterization of pathology in terms of win distribution.
Intelligent mobility controllers for a robotic vehicle climbing obstacles autonomously

description: Bibliography: p. 81-86
description: Research in mobile robot navigation has demonstrated some success in navigating a flat world while avoiding obstacles. However, algorithms which analyze complex environments in order to climb obstacles have had very little success due to the complexity of the task. This thesis aims to design a controller for a mobile robot to autonomously climb obstacles by adapting its geometric configuration. Three control algorithms are proposed to solve the autonomous locomotion problem for climbing obstacles. A reactive controller evaluates the appropriate geometric configuration based on terrain and vehicle geometric considerations. As a scripted controller is difficult to design for every possible circumstance, learning algorithms are a plausible alternative. A neural network based controller works if a task resembles a learned case. However, it lacks adaptability. Learning in real-time by reinforcement and progress estimation facilitates robot control and navigation. This thesis presents the reinforcement learning algorithm developed to find alternative solutions when the reactive controller gets stuck while climbing an obstacle. The controllers are validated and compared with simulations.

description: The South Pole Telescope (SPT) has nearly completed a 2500-square-degree survey of the southern sky in three frequency bands. Here we present the first public release of SPT maps and associated data products. We present arcminute-resolution maps at 150 GHz and 220 GHz of an approximately 95-square-degree field centered at R.A. 82.7 degrees, decl. -55 degrees. The field was observed to a depth of approximately 17 micro-K arcmin at 150 GHz and 41 micro-K arcmin at 220 GHz during the 2008 austral winter season. Two variations on map filtering and map projection are presented, one tailored for producing catalogs of galaxy clusters detected through their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect signature and one tailored for producing catalogs of emissive sources. We describe the data processing pipeline, and we present instrument response functions, filter transfer functions, and map noise properties. All data products described in this paper are available for download at http://pole.uchicago.edu/public/data/maps/ra5h30dec-55 and from the NASA Legacy Archive for Microwave Background Data Analysis server. This is the first step in the eventual release of data from the full 2500-square-degree SPT survey.

description: Quasi-static systems are an important concept in thermodynamics: they are dynamic but close enough to equilibrium that many properties of equilibrium systems still hold. Slowly evolving horizons are the corresponding concept for quasilocally defined black holes: they are "nearly isolated" future outer trapping horizons. This article reviews the definition and properties of these objects including both their mechanics and the role that they play in the fluid-gravity correspondence. It also introduces a new property: there is an event horizon candidate in close proximity to any slowly evolving horizon.

Oblivious Image Matching

Subjects: Computer science

description: We present the problem of Oblivious Image Matching, where two parties want to determine whether they have images of the same object or scene, without revealing any additional information. While image matching has attracted a great deal of attention in the computer vision community, it was never treated in a cryptographic sense. In this paper we study the private version of the problem, oblivious image matching, and provide an efficient protocol for it. In doing so, we design a novel image matching algorithm, and a few private protocols that may be of independent interest. Specifically, we first show how to reduce the image matching problem to a two-level version of the fuzzy set matching problem, and then present a novel protocol to privately compute this (and several other) matching problems.

The Use of Memory in Text Processing
Creators: name: Lebowitz, Michael
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1985
Subjects: Computer science
Artificial intelligence

description: The performance of a natural language processing system should improve as it reads more and more texts. This is true both for systems intended as cognitive models and for practical text processing systems. Permanent long-term memory should be useful during all stages of text understanding. For example, if, while reading a patent abstract about a new disk drive, a system can retrieve information about similar objects from memory, processing should be simplified. However, most natural language programs do not exhibit such learning behavior. We describe in this article how RESEARCHER, a program that reads, remembers and generalizes from patent abstracts, makes use of its automatically generated memory to assist in low-level text processing, primarily involving disambiguation that could be accomplished no other way. We describe both RESEARCHER's basic understanding methods and the integration of memory access. Included is an extended example of RESEARCHER processing a patent abstract by using information about several other abstracts already in memory.

Package of facts and theorems for efficiently generating entanglement criteria for many qubits

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present a package of mathematical theorems, which allow to construct multipartite entanglement criteria. Importantly, establishing bounds for certain classes of entanglement does not take an optimization over continuous sets of states. These bonds are found from the properties of commutativity graphs of operators used in the criterion. We present two examples of criteria constructed according to our method. One of them detects genuine 5-qubit entanglement without ever referring to correlations between all five qubits.

Parabolic Non-Automorphism Induced Toeplitz-Composition C*-Algebras with Piece-wise Quasi-continuous Symbols
Creators: name: Gül, Uğur

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Functional Analysis (math.FA)

description: In this paper we consider the C*-algebra $C^{*}(\{C_φ\}\cup\mathcal{T}(PQC(\mathbb{T})))/K(H^{2})$ generated by Toeplitz operators with piece-wise quasi-continuous symbols and a composition operator induced by a parabolic linear fractional non-automorphism symbol modulo compact operators on the Hilbert-Hardy space $H^{2}$. This C*-algebra is commutative. We characterize its maximal ideal space. We apply our results to the question of determining the essential spectra of linear combinations of a class of composition operators and Toeplitz operators.

Service Composition in a Global Service Discovery System
Creators: name: Arabshian, Knarig

name: Schulzrinne, Henning G.
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2007
Subjects: Computer science

description: GloServ is a global service discovery system which aggregates information about different types of services in a globally distributed network. GloServ classifies services in an ontology and maps knowledge obtained by the ontology onto a scalable hybrid hierarchical peer-to-peer network. The network mirrors the semantic relationships of service classes and as a result, reduces the number of message hops across the global network due to the domain-specific way services are distributed. Also, since services are described in greater detail, due to the ontology representation, greater reasoning is applied when querying and registering services. In this paper, we describe an enhancement to the GloServ querying mechanism which allows GloServ servers to process and issue subqueries between servers of different classes. Thus, information about different service classes may be queried for in a single query and issued directly from the front end, creating an extensible platform for service composition. The results are then aggregated and presented to the user such that services which share an attribute are categorized together. We have built and evaluated a location-based web service discovery prototype which demonstrates the flexibility of service composition in GloServ and discuss the design and evaluation of this system. Keywords: service discovery, ontologies, OWL, CAN, peer-to-peer, web service composition.
Self-similar analytical model of the plasma expansion in a magnetic field

description: The study of hot plasma expansion in a magnetic field is of interest for many astrophysical applications. In order to observe this process in laboratory, an experiment is proposed in which an ultrashort laser pulse produces a high-temperature plasma by irradiation of a small target. In this paper an analytical model is proposed for an expanding plasma cloud in an external dipole or homogeneous magnetic field. The model is based on the self-similar solution of a similar problem which deals with sudden expansion of spherical plasma into a vacuum without ambient magnetic field. The expansion characteristics of the plasma and deceleration caused by the magnetic field are examined analytically. The results obtained can be used in treating experimental and simulation data, and many phenomena of astrophysical and laboratory significance.

Framing protest : the Globe and Mail and the G8-G20 when protest becomes a riot story
Creators: name: Duggan, Evan Braden
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: In June 2010, the world’s political and economic leaders arrived in Ontario for the first-ever joint G8-G20. The event presented a theatre for an array of protesters and social movements to attract media attention to a variety of social justice issues and concerns. The predominant narrative that emerged in the Canadian media however seemed to cloud the complexity, nuance and diversity of protesters and reduce the dominant narrative to a singular and simplistic riot story. This study examines how the Globe and Mail framed its narrative surrounding protesters at the summit. To do this, it takes a sample of the Globe’s coverage of protesters at the G8-G20 and assesses how the paper: sourced its articles, marginalized protesters, trivialized protesters and whether it provided alternative, dissenting viewpoints. The aim of this research is to assess how Canada’s foremost national paper of record situated itself within large-scale challenge to social, political and economic normative order in Canada. This paper also explores concepts such as hegemony in the news, media effects, and the changing media landscape.

Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service
Year: 2023

description: Crossrail Archaeology Series, 8
description: This report explores six sites along the route of Crossrail. Geoarchaeologists were called in to assist with understanding the deep floodplain sediments, the environments they reflect and how, if at all, the Thames has affected (and been affected by) the people who lived along its banks through the ages. Introducing the techniques and theories used in geoarchaeology, this book uses the platform of the Crossrail sites to understand the wider, lower Thames area from Erith to Greenwich, Canning Town to Hornchurch. The Thames has changed greatly, but the history of its transformation is remarkable and relevant today.
A Survey on Service Creation by End Users

description: We conducted a survey on end users' willingness and capability to create their desired communication services. The survey is based on the graphical service creation tool we implemented for the Language for End System Services (LESS). We call the tool CUTE, which stands for Columbia University Telecommunication service Editor. This report demonstrates our survey result and shows that relatively inexperienced users are willing and capable to create their desired communication services, and CUTE fits their needs.
Nonequilibrium conductance through a benzene molecule in the Kondo regime

description: Starting from exact eigenstates for a symmetric ring, we derive a low-energy effective generalized Anderson Hamiltonian which contains two spin doublets with opposite momenta and a singlet for the neutral molecule. For benzene, the singlet (doublets) represent the ground state of the neutral (singly charged) molecule. We calculate the non-equilibrium conductance through a benzene molecule, doped with one electron or a hole (i.e. in the Kondo regime), and connected to two conducting leads at different positions. We solve the problem using the Keldysh formalism and the non-crossing approximation (NCA). When the leads are connected in the \emph{para} position (at 180 degrees), the model is equivalent to the ordinary impurity Anderson model and its known properties are recovered. For other positions, there is a partial destructive interference in the cotunneling processes involving the two doublets and as a consequence, the Kondo temperature and the height and width of the central peak (for bias voltage $V_b$ near zero) of the differential conductance $G=dI/dV_b$ (where $I$ is the current) are reduced. In addition, two peaks at finite $V_b$ appear. We study the position of these peaks, the temperature dependence of $G$ and the spectral densities. Our formalism can also be applied to carbon nanotube quantum dots with intervalley mixing.
