description: An investigation of helicity injection by photospheric shear motions is carried out for two active regions(ARs), NOAA 11158 and 11166, using line-of-sight magnetic field observations obtained from the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager on-board Solar Dynamics Observatory. We derived the horizontal velocities in the active regions from the Differential Affine Velocity Estimator(DAVE) technique. Persistent strong shear motions at the maximum velocities in the range of 0.6--0.9km/s along the magnetic polarity inversion line and outward flows from the peripheral regions of the sunspots were observed in the two active regions. The helicities injected in NOAA 11158 and 11166 during their six days' evolution period were estimated as $14.16\times10^{42}$Mx$^2$ and $9.5\times10^{42}$Mx$^2$, respectively. The estimated injection rates decreased up to 13% by increasing the time interval between the magnetograms from 12 min to 36 min, and increased up to 9% by decreasing the DAVE window size from $21\times18$ to $9\times6$ pixel$^2$, resulting in 10% variation in the accumulated helicity. In both ARs, the flare prone regions (R2) had inhomogeneous helicity flux distribution with mixed helicities of both signs and that of CME prone regions had almost homogeneous distribution of helicity flux dominated by single sign. The temporal profiles of helicity injection showed impulsive variations during some flares/CMEs due to negative helicity injection into the dominant region of positive helicity flux. A quantitative analysis reveals a marginally significant association of helicity flux with CMEs but not flares in AR 11158, while for the AR 11166, we found marginally significant association of helicity flux with flares but not CMEs, providing evidences of the role of helicity injection at localized sites of the events.

description: We consider continuous--time Markov kinetics with a finite number of states and a given positive equilibrium distribution P*. For an arbitrary probability distribution $P$ we study the possible right hand sides, dP/dt, of the Kolmogorov (master) equations. We describe the cone of possible values of the velocity, dP/dt, as a function of P and P*. We prove that, surprisingly, these cones coincide for the class of all Markov processes with equilibrium P* and for the reversible Markov processes with detailed balance at this equilibrium. Therefore, for an arbitrary probability distribution $P$ and a general system there exists a system with detailed balance and the same equilibrium that has the same velocity dP/dt at point P. The set of Lyapunov functions for the reversible Markov processes coincides with the set of Lyapunov functions for general Markov kinetics. The results are extended to nonlinear systems with the generalized mass action law.

description: Purpose: Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a second messenger for natriuretic peptide (NP) and nitric oxide pathways; its enhancement a target for heart failure and cardiovascular disease (CVD). We evaluated whether plasma cGMP was associated with change in left ventricular mass (LVM) among individuals free of CVD and if this differed by sex. Methods and Results: In 611 men and 612 women aged 45–84 years with plasma cGMP measured at baseline and cardiac MRI performed at baseline and 10 years later, we tested associations of cGMP [log-transformed, per 1 SD increment] with LVM, adjusting for CVD risk factors and N-terminal pro-B-type-NP (NT-proBNP). Participants had mean (SD) age of 63.1(8.5) years and cGMP 4.8(2.6) pmol/mL. Cross-sectionally, higher cGMP was associated with lesser LVM, non-lin- early. In contrast, longitudinally, higher cGMP was associated with increase in LVM [1.70g (0.61, 2.78)] over 10 years. Higher cGMP was associated with greater LVM change in men [2.68g (1.57, 3.79)] but not women [0.24g ((−0.92, 1.39); p-interaction < 0.001]. Conclusion: In conclusion, in a community-based cohort, higher cGMP levels were associated with increase in LVM over 10 years independent of CVD risk factors and NT-proBNP in men, perhaps reflecting compensatory changes. Further studies are needed to understand mechanistic roles of cGMP in LV remodelling and associated sex differences.

description: This paper studies systems of particles following independent random walks and subject to annihilation, binary branching, coalescence, and deaths. In the case without annihilation, such systems have been studied in our 2005 paper "Branching-coalescing particle systems". The case with annihilation is considerably more difficult, mainly as a consequence of the non-monotonicity of such systems and a more complicated duality. Nevertheless, we show that adding annihilation does not significantly change the long-time behavior of the process and in fact, systems with annihilation can be obtained by thinning systems without annihilation.

description: In a variety of rare-earth based compounds singlet superconductivity coexists with helical magnetism. Here we demonstrate that surfaces of these systems should generically host a finite density of zero-energy Majorana modes. In the limit of vanishing disorder, these modes lead to a divergent contribution to zero-energy density of states and to zero-temperature entropy proportional to the sample surface area. When confined to a wire geometry, a discrete number of Majorana modes can be isolated. The relatively large characteristic energy scales for superconductivity and magnetism, compared to other proposals, as well as the lack of need for fine-tuning, make helical magnetic superconducting compounds favorable for the observation and experimental investigation of Majorana fermions.

description: We propose a forward-backward multiplicity correlation function $C^N_{FB}$, which is experimentally accessible, to measure the noncollectivity contribution. We find that $C^N_{FB}$ is sensitive to the jet contribution for the particle-rich case. Surprisingly, it will automatically decrease for the particle-rare case. Our study indicates that similar decreasing trend observed previously is mainly driven by particle scarcity instead of jets. The function is studied in Au+Au collision at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV with a multiphase transport model (AMPT). We find that the jet fraction is about 10% at transverse momentum ($p_T$) around 2.5 GeV/$c$ and reaches up to 30% at 3.5 GeV/$c$. The implication of this study in the investigation of the noncollectivity contribution in elliptic anisotropy parameter $v_2$ is also discussed.

The masked masquerade : superhero and princess narratives and gendered masquerade in an early childhood setting.
Creators: name: Moule, Jennifer Carla
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Drawing from a poststructuralist feminist paradigm, this thesis considers the questions “How do the observed popular fantasy narratives in a child care setting intersect with three- and four-year-olds’ gendered subjectivities?” and “How and why do these narratives contribute to marginalised subjectivities in this setting?” I spent two-and-a-half months in an early childhood classroom using ethnographic-type methods, with a perspective of “methodological immaturity” (Gallacher & Gallagher, 2008) in departing from the Mosaic approach of multiple methods (Clark, 2005). The study included six children – two girls and four boys from three- to four-and-a-half-years-old – with whom I engaged in “conversations with a special purpose” (Eide & Winger, 2005), participant-observation, and the occasional activity-based methods. In considering Butler’s (2008) conceptualisation of gender as masquerade, the children’s gender performances intermingled meaningfully with the fantasy play narratives of superheroes and princesses. The children seemingly masqueraded these commodified identities in body and discourse towards better satisfying the implicit expectations of a well-performed gender discursively put upon young children’s bodies. Further, through these embodied discourses, other child bodies were relegated to the margins. Much of this was demonstrated through the restricting discourses called upon by me in the research conversations themselves, such as calling on a boy/girl binary in asking about the “rules for boys.” Thus, limitations of the research methods used are thoroughly discussed. This research suggests departing from an all-or-nothing mentality on “allowing” this play, and encouraging new ways to engage with and depart from these narratives.

description: We present an integer programming model for the ferry scheduling problem, improving existing models in various ways. In particular, our model has reduced size in terms of the number of variables and constraints compared to existing models by a factor of approximately O(n), where n being the number of ports. The model also handles efficiently load/unload time constraints, crew scheduling and passenger transfers. Experiments using real world data produced high quality solutions in 12 hours using CPLEX 12.4 with a performance guarantee of within 15% of optimality, on average. This establishes that using a general purpose integer programming solver is a viable alternative in solving the ferry scheduling problem of moderate size.

description: Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods, also known as particle filters, are simulation-based recursive algorithms for the approximation of the a posteriori probability measures generated by state-space dynamical models. At any given time $t$, a SMC method produces a set of samples over the state space of the system of interest (often termed "particles") that is used to build a discrete and random approximation of the posterior probability distribution of the state variables, conditional on a sequence of available observations. One potential application of the methodology is the estimation of the densities associated to the sequence of a posteriori distributions. While practitioners have rather freely applied such density approximations in the past, the issue has received less attention from a theoretical perspective. In this paper, we address the problem of constructing kernel-based estimates of the posterior probability density function and its derivatives, and obtain asymptotic convergence results for the estimation errors. In particular, we find convergence rates for the approximation errors that hold uniformly on the state space and guarantee that the error vanishes almost surely as the number of particles in the filter grows. Based on this uniform convergence result, we first show how to build continuous measures that converge almost surely (with known rate) toward the posterior measure and then address a few applications. The latter include maximum a posteriori estimation of the system state using the approximate derivatives of the posterior density and the approximation of functionals of it, for example, Shannon's entropy. This manuscript is identical to the published paper, including a gap in the proof of Theorem 4.2. The Theorem itself is correct. We provide an {\em erratum} at the end of this document with a complete proof and a brief discussion.

Synthesis and sintering of chromium-free complex spinels in the MgO-Al2O3-FeOx-Me4+O2 systems
Creators: name: Lodha, Rahul
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: Magnesia-chrome refractory ceramics are used in non-ferrous industry because of their corrosion resistance against fayalite-type slags, rich in FeO. Unfortunately, Cr³⁺ may oxidize to Cr⁶⁺ during the smelting and converting processes, thus making their spent pot-lining hazardous. Two strategies are explored in this present work to develop chrome-free refractories sinterable at lower temperatures. The first is to replace Cr³⁺ with tetravalent cations (Me⁴⁺) that form complex spinel with MgO and Al₂O₃ at 1350-1550 ºC. These ions could promote simultaneous synthesis and sintering through formation of non-stoichiometric spinel at high temperatures and re-precipitation of the complex spinel during cooling. The second objective is to study the contribution of nano-size powders of the spinel formers to achieve both synthesis and sintering of Cr-free spinel solid solutions. The current research proved that synthesis and sintering of such spinels, or their solid solutions, could be performed at much lower temperatures (1350-1550 ºC) than the Cr³⁺-bearing version, which requires firing at 1750-1850 ºC to achieve equivalent properties. It is hypothesised that the defect super-structure due to Me⁴⁺ ions inducing the spinel phase formation at relatively low temperatures (1350-1550 ºC) results in the simultaneous synthesis and sintering of these complex spinels. The defect super-structures formed at lower temperatures have a higher lattice parameter than the final spinel solid solution phase. The volume expansion due to spinel formation that retards densification is also overcome due to the shrinkage in volume of the complex spinel phase. The results indicate that addition of Fe₂O₃ in MgO-Al₂O₃-Me⁴⁺O₂ systems results in improved reaction sintering with an open porosity of ~4% at 1450 ºC. However, the narrow particle size distribution for preparation of aggregates makes it necessary to fire the pressed specimens at higher temperature or in two stages in order to achieve similar open porosity to the co-clinkered aggregates for basic refractory ceramics. This research work contributes to the preparation of chrome-free aggregates and binding systems and show that synthesis and sintering of magnesia-spinel phase led to development of chromium-free binding phase for basic castables with comparable flexural and compressive strength to magnesia-chrome bricks with firing temperatures below 1500 ºC.

description: We investigate the local properties of Berkovich spaces over Z. Using Weierstrass theorems, we prove that the local rings of those spaces are noetherian, regular in the case of affine spaces and excellent. We also show that the structure sheaf is coherent. Our methods work over other base rings (valued fields, discrete valuation rings, rings of integers of number fields, etc.) and provide a unified treatment of complex and p-adic spaces.

description: It is expected that the magnetic field in the surface of magnetars do not exceed $10^{15}$ G. However, in heavy ion collisions, this value is expected to be much higher. We investigate the effects of a magnetic fields varying from $10^{18}$, to $10^{20}$ G in strange matter (composed of $u$, $d$ and $s$ quarks). We model matter as a free gas of baryons and mesons under the influence of an external magnetic field. We study the effects of such strong fields through a $χ^2$ fit to some data sets of the STAR experiment. For this purpose we solve the Dirac, Rarita-Schwinger, Klein-Gordon and Proca equations subject to magnetic fields in order to obtain the energy expressions and the degeneracy for spin 1/2, spin 3/2, spin 0 and spin 1 particles, respectively. Our results show that a field of the order of $10^{19}$ G produces an improved fitting to the experimental data as compared to the calculations without magnetic field.

description: Recently, two of us have argued that non-Kerr black holes in gravity theories different from General Relativity may have a topologically non-trivial event horizon. More precisely, the spatial topology of the horizon of non-rotating and slow-rotating objects would be a 2-sphere, like in Kerr space-time, while it would change above a critical value of the spin parameter. When the topology of the horizon changes, the black hole central singularity shows up. The accretion process from a thin disk can potentially overspin these black holes and induce the topology transition, violating the Weak Cosmic Censorship Conjecture. If the astrophysical black hole candidates are not the black holes predicted by General Relativity, we might have the quite unique opportunity to see their central region, where classical physics breaks down and quantum gravity effects should appear. Even if the quantum gravity region turned out to be extremely small, at the level of the Planck scale, the size of its apparent image would be finite and potentially observable with future facilities.

Inference in Probabilistic Logic Programs with Continuous Random Variables

description: Probabilistic Logic Programming (PLP), exemplified by Sato and Kameya's PRISM, Poole's ICL, Raedt et al's ProbLog and Vennekens et al's LPAD, is aimed at combining statistical and logical knowledge representation and inference. A key characteristic of PLP frameworks is that they are conservative extensions to non-probabilistic logic programs which have been widely used for knowledge representation. PLP frameworks extend traditional logic programming semantics to a distribution semantics, where the semantics of a probabilistic logic program is given in terms of a distribution over possible models of the program. However, the inference techniques used in these works rely on enumerating sets of explanations for a query answer. Consequently, these languages permit very limited use of random variables with continuous distributions. In this paper, we present a symbolic inference procedure that uses constraints and represents sets of explanations without enumeration. This permits us to reason over PLPs with Gaussian or Gamma-distributed random variables (in addition to discrete-valued random variables) and linear equality constraints over reals. We develop the inference procedure in the context of PRISM; however the procedure's core ideas can be easily applied to other PLP languages as well. An interesting aspect of our inference procedure is that PRISM's query evaluation process becomes a special case in the absence of any continuous random variables in the program. The symbolic inference procedure enables us to reason over complex probabilistic models such as Kalman filters and a large subclass of Hybrid Bayesian networks that were hitherto not possible in PLP frameworks.

Conditional regularity of solutions of the three dimensional Navier-Stokes equations and implications for intermittency

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)

description: Two unusual time-integral conditional regularity results are presented for the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. The ideas are based on $L^{2m}$-norms of the vorticity, denoted by $Ω_{m}(t)$, and particularly on $D_{m} = Ω_{m}^{α_{m}}$, where $α_{m} = 2m/(4m-3)$ for $m\geq 1$. The first result, more appropriate for the unforced case, can be stated simply : if there exists an $1\leq m < \infty$ for which the integral condition is satisfied ($Z_{m}=D_{m+1}/D_{m}$) $$ \int_{0}^{t}\ln (\frac{1 + Z_{m}}{c_{4,m}}) dτ\geq 0$$ then no singularity can occur on $[0, t]$. The constant $c_{4,m} \searrow 2$ for large $m$. Secondly, for the forced case, by imposing a critical \textit{lower} bound on $\int_{0}^{t}D_{m} dτ$, no singularity can occur in $D_{m}(t)$ for \textit{large} initial data. Movement across this critical lower bound shows how solutions can behave intermittently, in analogy with a relaxation oscillator. Potential singularities that drive $\int_{0}^{t}D_{m} dτ$ over this critical value can be ruled out whereas other types cannot.

The endoplasmic reticulum diffusion barrier and inter-organelle contact sites
Creators: name: Chao, Jesse Tzu-Cheng
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: Polarization of cellular membranes into domains is an important mechanism to compartmentalize cellular activities within the membrane and establish cell polarity. Recent studies have uncovered that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is polarized by diffusion barriers, which in neurons controls glutamate signaling in dendritic spines, but the molecular identity of these diffusion barriers is unknown. In Chapter 2 we show that a direct interaction between integral ER protein Scs2 and septin Shs1 creates the ER diffusion barrier in yeast. We uncovered a new ER-associated polarisome subunit, Epo1, which is required for the tethering of ER to septins. The human homologue of Scs2, VAP-B, also interacts with Shs1 in yeast indicating that the tether may be conserved. As mutations in VAP-B cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, loss of ER polarization in dendritic spines is a potential mechanism underlying motorneuron disease. Synthesis of phospholipids, sterols and sphingolipids is thought to occur at contact sites between the ER and other organelles because many lipid synthesizing enzymes are enriched at contact sites. In only a few cases have the enzymes been localized to contacts in vivo and in no instances have the contacts been demonstrated to be required for enzyme function. In Chapter 3 we show that plasma membrane (PM) - endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contact sites in yeast are required for phosphatidylcholine synthesis and regulate the activity of a key enzyme, Opi3, whose activity requires a lipid binding protein, Osh3. Thus, membrane contact sites provide a structural mechanism to regulate lipid synthesis.

description: In this paper, we study optimal control problems associated with a scalar hyperbolic conservation law modeling the development of ovarian follicles. Changes in the age and maturity of follicular cells are described by a 2D conservation law, where the control terms act on the velocities. The control problem consists in optimizing the follicular cell resources so that the follicular maturity reaches a maximal value in fixed time. Formulating the optimal control problem within a hybrid framework, we prove necessary optimality conditions in the form of Hybrid Maximum Principle. Then we derive the optimal strategy and show that there exists at least one optimal bang-bang control with one single switching time.
