description: This paper presents a consistent approach to prescribe traction boundary conditions in atomistic models. Due to the typical multiple-neighbor interactions, finding an appropriate boundary condition that models a desired traction is a non-trivial task. We first present a one-dimensional example, which demonstrates how such boundary conditions can be formulated. We further analyze the stability, and derive its continuum limit. We also show how the boundary conditions can be extended to higher dimensions with an application to a dislocation dipole problem under shear stress.

description: In this paper we investigate the nonexistence of nonnegative solutions of parabolic inequalities of the form $$\begin{cases} &u_t \pm L_\mathcal A u\geq (K\ast u^p)u^q \quad\mbox{ in } \mathbb R^N \times \mathbb (0,\infty),\, N\geq 1,\\ &u(x,0) = u_0(x)\ge0 \,\, \text{ in } \mathbb R^N,\end{cases} \qquad (P^{\pm}) $$ where $u_0\in L^1_{loc}({\mathbb R}^N)$, $L_{\mathcal{A}}$ denotes a weakly $m$-coercive operator, which includes as prototype the $m$-Laplacian or the generalized mean curvature operator, $p,\,q>0$, while $K\ast u^p$ stands for the standard convolution operator between a weight $K>0$ satisfying suitable conditions at infinity and $u^p$. For problem $(P^-)$ we obtain a Fujita type exponent while for $(P^+)$ we show that no such critical exponent exists. Our approach relies on nonlinear capacity estimates adapted to the nonlocal setting of our problems. No comparison results or maximum principles are required.

description: This paper presents an inverse reinforcement learning~(IRL) framework for Bayesian stopping time problems. By observing the actions of a Bayesian decision maker, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition to identify if these actions are consistent with optimizing a cost function. In a Bayesian (partially observed) setting, the inverse learner can at best identify optimality wrt the observed strategies. Our IRL algorithm identifies optimality and then constructs set-valued estimates of the cost function.To achieve this IRL objective, we use novel ideas from Bayesian revealed preferences stemming from microeconomics. We illustrate the proposed IRL scheme using two important examples of stopping time problems, namely, sequential hypothesis testing and Bayesian search. As a real-world example, we illustrate using a YouTube dataset comprising metadata from 190000 videos how the proposed IRL method predicts user engagement in online multimedia platforms with high accuracy. Finally, for finite datasets, we propose an IRL detection algorithm and give finite sample bounds on its error probabilities.

description: The Morris Beachy collection comprises reel-to-reel tapes of historical recordings of choral works dated from 1953 to 2002. Ensembles represented in the collection are primarily from The University of Texas at Austin, including the A Capella Choir, Chamber Singers, Madrigal Singers, and Choral Union, as well as the Austin Choral Union. Dr. Morris Beachy (1928-2011), choral director and University of Texas at Austin Professor Emeritus, joined the faculty of the university in 1957, serving for 36 years. During this time, he developed one of the largest university choral programs in the country and founded nine ensembles, including the UT Chamber Singers, the Longhorn Singers and the University Chorus. Beachy earned his BM from Colorado State University in 1951, his MM from the University of Oregon in 1952, and his DMA from the University of Southern California in 1955. Prior to joining the faculty of The University of Texas at Austin, he held teaching positions in Colorado, Oregon, Washington and California. Beachy held multiple positions off campus, contributing to the musical arts across the City of Austin. He founded the Austin Choral Union, a group that sang with the Austin Symphony Orchestra, and later Austin Choral Artists and the Morris Beachy Singers. He also acted as the chorus master for the Austin Lyric Opera for its first six seasons. Beachy was a baritone soloist in opera, oratorio and recital and was a prolific author, publishing many articles on singing and choral performance.

description: This report describes the process and the result of a horizon scan exercise on new and emerging technologies and their socio-economic impacts carried out as part of the TechEthos project. The horizon scanning aids to:
 • Identifying, selecting, and describing a set of 16 technology families with significant socio-economic impact and ethical dimensions that are expected to be developed and deployed in Europe and worldwide in the next five to ten years. The analysis will be used to ensure that the ethics framework and guidelines developed by TechEthos will be relevant and applicable for a wide range of new and emerging technologies.
 • Informing the choice of a subset of 3 technology families that will form a TechEthos technology portfolio on which the project will undertake in-depth ethical, social, policy and legal analyses. This subset will be used as case studies to develop operational ethics guidelines for these specific technologies.
 This report describes the overall set of technology families, while the impact assessment leading to the choice of these technologies and the final selection of the technology portfolio will be the focus of two upcoming TechEthos reports.
Anisotropic Regularity of the Free-Boundary Problem in Compressible Ideal Magnetohydrodynamics

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)

description: We consider 3D free-boundary compressible ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) system under the Rayleigh-Taylor sign condition. It describes the motion of a free-surface perfect conducting fluid in an electro-magnetic field. A local existence and uniqueness result was recently proved by Trakhinin and Wang [64] by using Nash-Moser iteration. However, that result loses regularity going from data to solution. In this paper, we show that the Nash-Moser iteration scheme in [64] can be improved such that the local-in-time smooth solution exists and is unique when the initial data is smooth and satisfies the compatibility condition up to infinite order. Second, we prove the a priori estimates without loss of regularity for the free-boundary compressible MHD system in Lagrangian coordinates in anisotropic Sobolev space, with more regularity tangential to the boundary than in the normal direction. It is based on modified Alinhac good unknowns, which take into account the covariance under the change of coordinates to avoid the derivative loss; full utilization of the cancellation structures of MHD system, to turn normal derivatives into tangential ones; and delicate analysis in anisotropic Sobolev spaces. As a result, we can prove the uniqueness and the continuous dependence on initial data provided the local existence, and a continuation criterion for smooth solution. Finally, we extend the local well-posedness theorem to the case of initial data only satisfying compatibility conditions up to finite order, assuming these can be approximated by data satisfying infinitely many compatibility conditions.

Pulse-efficient circuit transpilation for quantum applications on cross-resonance-based hardware

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We show a pulse-efficient circuit transpilation framework for noisy quantum hardware. This is achieved by scaling cross-resonance pulses and exposing each pulse as a gate to remove redundant single-qubit operations with the transpiler.Crucially, no additional calibration is needed to yield better results than a CNOT-based transpilation. This pulse-efficient circuit transpilation therefore enables a better usage of the finite coherence time without requiring knowledge of pulse-level details from the user. As demonstration, we realize a continuous family of cross-resonance-based gates for SU(4) by leveraging Cartan's decomposition. We measure the benefits of a pulse-efficient circuit transpilation with process tomography and observe up to a 50% error reduction in the fidelity of RZZ(θ) and arbitrary SU(4) gates on IBM Quantum devices.We apply this framework for quantum applications by running circuits of the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm applied to MAXCUT. For an 11 qubit non-hardware native graph, our methodology reduces the overall schedule duration by up to 52% and errors by up to 38%

description: There is a growing interest in searching for topology in fractal dimensions with the aim of finding different properties and advantages compared to the integer dimensional case. It has previously been shown that the Laughlin state can be adapted to fractal lattices. A key element in doing so is to replace the uniform background charge by a background charge that resides only on the lattice sites. This motivates the study of Hofstadter type models on fractal lattices, in which the magnetic field is present only at the lattice sites. Here, we study such models for hardcore bosons on finite lattices derived from the Sierpinski carpet and on square lattices with open boundary conditions. We find that the system sizes that we can investigate with exact diagonalization are generally too small to judge whether these local models are topological or not. Studying the particle densities on the lattices derived from the Sierpinski carpet, we find that the densities tend to accumulate in the regions that are locally similar to a square lattice. Such accumulation seems to be incompatible with the uniform densities in fractional quantum Hall systems, which might suggest that the models are not topological. Our computations provide guidance for future searches for topology in finite systems. We also propose a scheme to implement both fractal lattices and our proposed local Hamiltonian with ultracold atoms in optical lattices, which could allow for quantum simulators to go beyond the numerical results presented here.

Compliance, Counseling and Satisfaction with Oral Contraceptives: A Prospective Evaluation
Creators: name: Burnhill, Michael S.
name: Rosenberg, Michael J.

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1998

description: CONTEXT: Oral contraceptive users' risk of accidental pregnancy may be higher than it should be, because of inconsistent pill-taking. However, few reliable data are available on pill users' everyday experiences with their method, especially characteristics that may affect consistency of use.

METHODS: Two months after initiating or resuming oral contraceptive use, a nationwide sample of 943 women completed questionnaires examining their compliance with instructions for proper use, the quality of their interactions with their provider, their satisfaction with the method, and the frequency and costs of visits or calls to their providers because of pill-related side effects. Regression analyses were used to determine the factors associated with compliance difficulties and method dissatisfaction.

RESULTS: In all, 47% of users missed one or more pills per cycle, and 22% missed two or more. Women who lacked an established pill-taking routine, who did not read and understand all of the informational material accompanying the pill package, or who experienced spotting or heavy bleeding had increased odds of missing two or more pills per cycle. Method satisfaction was most likely among women who were aware of the pill's noncontraceptive benefits, were satisfied with their relationship with their provider, had used the pill in the past and experienced few side effects. Some 22% of users called their provider at least once about pill-related side effects, and 9% made at least one visit for this reason; these women spent $25 and $62, respectively, to treat side effects.

CONCLUSIONS: Improving pill use is a shared responsibility of the provider, the patient and, to a lesser degree, pill manufacturers. Awareness of potential difficulties such as inadequate counseling is a key step in helping women use oral contraceptives effectively.

description: Given a two-variable function $f$ without critical points and a compact region $R$ bounded by two level curves of $f$, this note proves that the integral over $R$ of the second-order directional derivative of $f$ in the tangential directions of the interceding level curves is proportional to the rise in $f$-value over $R$. Also discussed are variations on this result when critical points are present or $R$ becomes unbounded.

description: When a three-dimensional (3D) ferromagnetic topological insulator thin film is magnetized out-of-plane, conduction ideally occurs through dissipationless, one-dimensional (1D) chiral states that are characterized by a quantized, zero-field Hall conductance. The recent realization of this phenomenon - the quantum anomalous Hall effect - provides a conceptually new platform for studies of edge-state transport, distinct from the more extensively studied integer and fractional quantum Hall effects that arise from Landau level formation. An important question arises in this context: how do these 1D edge states evolve as the magnetization is changed from out-of-plane to in-plane? We examine this question by studying the field-tilt driven crossover from predominantly edge state transport to diffusive transport in Cr-doped (Bi,Sb)2Te3 thin films, as the system transitions from a quantum anomalous Hall insulator to a gapless, ferromagnetic topological insulator. The crossover manifests itself in a giant, electrically tunable anisotropic magnetoresistance that we explain using the Landauer-Buttiker formalism. Our methodology provides a powerful means of quantifying edge state contributions to transport in temperature and chemical potential regimes far from perfect quantization.
Acceptability of a Novel Vaginal Microbicide during a Safety Trial among Low-Risk Women

description: CONTEXT: The increasing recognition that women who are unable or unwilling to discuss or use condoms with their sexual partners need female-controlled methods for preventing sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including HIV, has led to considerable focus on the development of vaginal microbicides. While many such products are being tested for safety and effectiveness, clinical trials generally overlook another key factor in a product's impact on infection rates-its acceptability to users.

METHODS: A Phase I clinical trial of a microbicidal gel included an assessment of the product's acceptability among 27 low-risk participants. Information on acceptability was gathered from structured interviews, participants' daily diaries and unstructured exit interviews.

RESULTS: Participants reported only minor side effects of product use, such as itching, burning and difficulty urinating; two women developed candida infections while participating in the study. None of the side effects could be conclusively linked to use of the gel. Some women noted product discharge and messiness as drawbacks of the method, but this experience varied according to how often the women applied the gel. For example, one-third of those who used it once daily said that at least some of the time, it was too "wet or drippy," compared with two-thirds of women who inserted the gel twice a day. However, participants considered these "nuisance factors" that could be outweighed by the potential protective characteristics of the product. The majority reported that they would use the product if it were available and proven efficacious, and if they perceived that they were at risk of STD infection.

CONCLUSIONS: Additional testing of this product is urgently needed. Furthermore, as other products approach Phase I testing, acceptability assessments should be a key component of clinical trials.

description: CONTEXT: Sexual and substance use behaviors covary in adolescence. Prevalence of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) differs according to race and gender, yet few studies have systematically investigated risk behavior patterns by subgroup, particularly with nationally representative data.

METHODS: A priori considerations and K-means cluster analysis were used to group 13,998 non-Hispanic black and white participants in the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, Wave 1, according to self-reported substance use and sexual behavior. Multinomial logit analyses examined racial and gender differences by cluster.

RESULTS: Among 16 clusters, the two defined by the lowest risk behaviors (sexual abstinence and little or no substance use) comprised 47% of adolescents; fewer than 1% in these groups reported ever having received an STD diagnosis. The next largest cluster-characterized by sexual activity (on average, with one lifetime partner) and infrequent substance use-contained 15% of participants but nearly one-third of adolescent with STDs. Blacks were more likely than whites to be in this group. Black males also were more likely than white males to be in three small clusters characterized by high-risk sexual behaviors (i.e., having had sex with a male or with at least 14 partners, or for drugs or money). Black females generally were the least likely to be in high-risk behavior clusters but the most likely to report STDs.

CONCLUSIONS: Adolescents' risk behavior patterns vary by race and gender, and do not necessarily correlate with their STD prevalence. Further investigation of adolescents' partners and sexual networks is needed.

description: Since 1993, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and professional medical organizations have recommended that all sexually experienced female adolescents receive annual screening for Chlamydia trachomatis. Whether adolescents receive this care is largely unknown. Reports of receipt of testing or treatment for a sexually transmitted disease (STD) in the past year, as well as sites of care, were obtained from 3,987 sexually experienced females in grades 7–12 who participated in Wave 1 of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, conducted in 1995. Logistic regression was used to determine predictors of reporting care. Eighteen percent of all participants reported having received STD services in the past year. Of those who reported having had a routine physical examination in the past year, 22% reported receipt of STD services. The proportion reporting STD care increased linearly with age from 9% of 12–13-year-olds to 25% of those 19 or older. In adjusted analyses, the odds of reporting testing or treatment were elevated among participants who had had a physical examination in the past year (odds ratio, 2.1), those with Medicaid or Medicare insurance (1.9), black women (1.5) and older adolescents (1.2). Adolescents most often reported having received STD care at a community health center (44%) or a private physician's office (31%). Continued inadequate screening may contribute to persisting high prevalence of chlamydia infection among adolescents. Future research is needed to determine whether the proportions of adolescents receiving recommended STD screening have increased over time.

description: Rates of HIV and AIDS have risen among U.S. Hispanics and in migrant-sending regions of Mexico and Central America, pointing to a link between migration and HIV. However, little is known about male migrants' sexual risk behaviors, such as the use of commercial sex workers. The prevalence and frequency of commercial sex worker use was examined among 442 randomly selected Hispanic migrants in Durham, North Carolina. Logistic and Poisson regression techniques were used to model predictors of commercial sex worker use, and descriptive data on condom use with commercial sex workers were examined. Twenty-eight percent of respondents reported using the services of a commercial sex worker during the previous year; rates reached 46% among single men and 40% among married men living apart from their wives. Men with spouses in Durham were less likely than other men to use commercial sex workers (odds ratio, 0.1). Among men who used commercial sex workers, the frequency of visits declined with greater education (incidence rate ratio, 0.9) and increased with hourly wage (1.1). Frequency and use declined with years of residence, although the results were of borderline significance. Reported rates of condom use with commercial sex workers were high, but were likely to fall if familiarity with a commercial sex worker increased. Commercial sex workers represent an important potential source of HIV infection. Educational and behavioral interventions that take into account social context and target the most vulnerable migrants are needed to help migrants and their partners avoid HIV infection.

description: We study a new integrable probabilistic system, defined in terms of a stochastic colored vertex model on a square lattice. The main distinctive feature of our model is a new family of parameters attached to diagonals rather than to rows or columns, like in other similar models. Because of these new parameters the previously known results about vertex models cannot be directly applied, but nevertheless the integrability remains, and we prove explicit integral expressions for $q$-deformed moments of the (colored) height functions of the model. Following known techniques our model can be interpreted as a $q$-discretization of the Beta polymer model from arXiv:1503.04117 with a new family of parameters, also attached to diagonals. To demonstrate how integrability with respect to the new diagonal parameters works, we extend the known results about Tracy-Widom large-scale fluctuations of the Beta polymer model.

description: El metanol se encuentra en diferentes contextos del Sistema Solar como objetos transneptunianos (TNOs) o cometas. También se ha detectado en el medio interestelar (ISM). El metanol es la más sencilla de las denominadas moléculas orgánicas complejas (COMs). Estas moléculas son de interés por su relación con moléculas prebióticas. Conocer sus características físicas y cómo estas evolucionan frente a variaciones de temperatura, ayuda a comprender y prever su comportamiento y posible interacción con otras moléculas presentes en los hielos. También permiten estudiar la relación ente las fases sólida y gaseosa, en los ambientes en los que está presente. Se ha determinado la densidad promedio y el índice de refracción a diferentes temperaturas de depósito (20-130 K). Observando que la densidad y el índice aumentan con la temperatura de depósito, hasta un máximo a 100 K. Los incrementos de densidad con la temperatura permiten relacionarlos con cambios estructurales como diferencias en densidades intrínsecas, como máxima compactación de hielo amorfo, o bien la diferentes fases cristalinas que presenta el hielo formado en condiciones de alto vacío. Para poder seguir dichas variaciones, así como determinar las condiciones iniciales se ha utilizado Interferometría láser, espectroscopía de masas y gravimetría con una micro-balanza de cuarzo que actuaba de porta-muestras.

description: This three-year research project began in January 2014 and investigated whether, during the Victorian period, the professions formed a distinct self-sustaining social group with its own mores and values. The project looked at 16,000 individuals drawn from census data for Alnwick, Brighton, Bristol, Dundee, Greenock, Leeds, Merthyr Tydfil, Morpeth, and Winchester. The research project was funded by the UK Economic & Social Research Council and was based at the Universities of Oxford and Northumbria.

description: CONTEXT: Despite the vast amount of existing research on adolescent sexual behavior, little is known about the trajectory of social, romantic and sexual events within an adolescent's relationship.

METHODS: A subsample of participants in Wave 2 of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (8,438 respondents aged 12-21) provided data on the sequence of 15 social, romantic and sexual events that occurred in a recent romantic relationship. Proportions reporting each event and average relative rankings were assessed for all respondents, for different racial and ethnic groups, and for respondents who belonged to the same racial or ethnic group as their partner. Logistic regression was used to compare proportions; ordinary least square regression was used to analyze the mean sequential ranking of each event.

RESULTS: Social and romantic events, such as spending time with one's partner in a group and holding hands, were far more common than sexual events, such as touching one's partner without clothing, and typically preceded sexual events in the trajectory of relationship events. Romantic events were the most common across three of the four major U.S. racial and ethnic groups. Asian and Hispanic respondents tended to have low proportions reporting sexual events compared with white respondents. Black adolescents were the only group for whom talking about prevention of pregnancy and STDs preceded sexual events. Reports from male and female adolescents were similar.

CONCLUSION: Recognition of the diversity of relationship experiences may prompt the development of more effective interventions for adolescents who engage in risky sexual behavior.

description: Novel dynamical phases that violate ergodicity have been a subject of extensive research in recent years. A periodically driven system is naively expected to lose all memory of its initial state due to thermalization, yet this can be avoided in the presence of many-body localization. A discrete time crystal represents a driven system whose local observables spontaneously break time translation symmetry and retain memory of the initial state indefinitely. Here we report the observation of a discrete time crystal on a chain consisting of 57 superconducting qubits on a state--of--the--art quantum computer. We probe random initial states and compare the cases of vanishing and finite disorder to distinguish many-body localization from pre-thermal dynamics. We further report results on the dynamical phase transition between the discrete time crystal and a thermal regime, which is observed via critical fluctuations in the system's sub-harmonic frequency response and a significant speed-up of spin depolarisation.

description: Relativistic corrections to the evolution of structure can be used to test general relativity on cosmological scales. They are also a well-known systematic contamination in the search for a primordial non-Gaussian signal. We present a numerical framework to generate RELativistic second-order Initial Conditions ($\texttt{RELIC}$) based on a generic (not necessarily separable) second-order kernel for the density perturbations. In order to keep the time complexity manageable we introduce a scale cut that separates long and short scales, and neglect the "short-short" coupling that will eventually be swamped by uncontrollable higher-order effects. To test our approach, we use the second-order Einstein-Boltzmann code $\texttt{SONG}$ to provide the numerical second-order kernel in a $Λ$CDM model, and we demonstrate that the realisations generated by $\texttt{RELIC}$ reproduce the bispectra well whenever at least one of the scales is a "long" mode. We then present a generic algorithm that takes a perturbed density field as an inputand provides particle initial data that matches this input to arbitrary order in perturbations for a given particle-mesh scheme. We implement this algorithm in the relativistic N-body code $\texttt{gevolution}$ to demonstrate how our framework can be used to set precise initial conditions for cosmological simulations of large-scale structure.

description: In this note, we have analyzed the circular motion of test particles around the Schwarzschild-MOG black hole. First, we have studied the shadow cast by the spherical symmetric black hole within MOG gravity. It has been shown that due to the effect of MOG both the photonspere and shadow of the black hole increase. We have also shown that the characteristic radii of massive particles circularly orbiting around the Schwarzschild-MOG black hole, namely, the innermost stable circular orbits (ISCO) and marginally bound orbits are greater than that in pure Schwarzschild one. Assuming a black hole in the external uniform magnetic field we have studied the structure of the electromagnetic field. We have shown that the magnetic field behaves like non-uniform in the vicinity of the Schwarzschild-MOG black hole and field lines become denser. Finally, we investigated charged particles' motion around the Schwarzschild-MOG black hole in the presence of an external magnetic field and shown that the ISCO position for charged particle is always less than one for neutral particles.
