description: Designs for transmit alphabet constrained space-time codes naturally lead to questions about the design of rank distance codes. Recently, diversity embedded multi-level space-time codes for flat fading channels have been designed from sets of binary matrices with rank distance guarantees over the binary field by mapping them onto QAM and PSK constellations. In this paper we demonstrate that diversity embedded space-time codes for fading Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) channels can be designed with provable rank distance guarantees. As a corollary we obtain an asymptotic characterization of the fixed transmit alphabet rate-diversity trade-off for multiple antenna fading ISI channels. The key idea is to construct and analyze properties of binary matrices with a particular structure induced by ISI channels.

description: Recent findings by Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes indicate a large transparency of the Universe to gamma rays, which can be hardly explained within the current models of extragalactic background light. We show that the observed transparency is naturally produced by an oscillation mechanism -- which can occur inside intergalactic magnetic fields -- whereby a photon can become a new spin-zero boson with mass m << 10^(-10) eV. Because the latter particle travels unimpeded throughout the Universe, photons can reach the observer even if the distance from the source considerably exceeds their mean free path. We compute the expected flux of gamma rays from blazar 3C279 at different energies. Our predictions can be tested in the near future by the gamma-ray telescopes H.E.S.S., MAGIC, CANGAROO and VERITAS. Moreover, our result provides an important observational test for models of dark energy wherein quintessence is coupled to the photon through an effective dimension-five operator.

Εξετάσαμε τέλος ειδικά το ζήτημα της ποινικής ευθύνης εκπροσώπων νομικών προσώπων και διατυπώσαμε de lege ferenda προτάσεις για την αναμόρφωση διατάξεων του γενικού μέρους του ποινικού κώδικα, προκειμένου να αντιμετωπισθούν τα προβλήματα που ανακύπτουν κατά την απόδοση ποινικής ευθύνης εντός συλλογικών οντοτήτων.
description: The present dissertation closely examines the dogmatic nature of criminal liability of legal entities and corporations, a form of liability acknowledged in many foreign legal orders, yet unknown as such to the Greek legal system. A presentation of the systems of attribution of criminal liability in corporations both in foreign as well as in the Greek legal order, is followed by the dogmatic analysis of the institution and its compatibility with the constitutional principles of Greek criminal law. We therefore propose an alternative system of corporate liability for criminal acts which safeguards the basic principles of criminal law and is structured in the context of the theories examining the distinction between criminal and administrative penalties. The thesis finally examines closely the issues deriving from the attribution of criminal liability to persons inside a corporation (directors, representatives) and contributes a proposal for reform of the penal code in order to better affront these problematic issues.

description: We present Spitzer/IRS observations of a small sample of heavily obscured IRAS sources displaying both the infrared and OH maser emission characteristic of OH/IR stars on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB), but also radio continuum emission typical of ionized planetary nebulae (PNe), the so-called OHPNe. Our observations show that their mid-infrared spectra are dominated by the simultaneous presence of strong and broad amorphous silicate absorption features together with crystalline silicate features, originated in their O-rich circumstellar shells. Out of the five sources observed, three of them are clearly non-variable at infrared wavelengths, confirming their post-AGB status, while the remaining two still show strong photometric fluctuations, and may still have not yet departed from the AGB. One of the non-variable sources in the sample, IRAS 17393-2727, displays a strong [Ne II] nebular emission at 12.8 microns, indicating that the ionization of its central region has already started. This suggests a rapid evolution from the AGB to the PN stage. We propose that these heavily obscured OHPNe represent the population of high mass precursors to PNe in our Galaxy.

Beyond the standard entropic inequalities: stronger scalar separability criteria and their applications

description: Recently it was shown that if a given state fulfils the reduction criterion it must also satisfy the known entropic inequalities. Now the questions arises whether on the assumption that stronger criteria based on positive but not completely positive maps are satisfied, it is possible to derive some scalar inequalities stronger than the entropic ones. In this paper we show that under some assumptions the extended reduction criterion [H.-P. Breuer, Phys. Rev. Lett 97, 080501 (2006); W. Hall, J. Phys. A 40, 6183 (2007)] leads to some entropic--like inequalities which are much stronger than their entropic counterparts. The comparison of the derived inequalities with other separability criteria shows that such approach might lead to strong scalar criteria detecting both distillable and bound entanglement. In particular, in the case of SO(3)-invariant states it is shown that the present inequalities detect entanglement in regions in which entanglement witnesses based on extended reduction map fail. It should be also emphasized that in the case of $2\otimes N$ states the derived inequalities detect entanglement efficiently, while the extended reduction maps are useless when acting on the qubit subsystem. Moreover, there is a natural way to construct a many-copy entanglement witnesses based on the derived inequalities so, in principle, there is a possibility of experimental realization. Some open problems and possibilities for further studies are outlined.

description: This paper gives a first-time assessment of the interaction between income security programmes (public and private) and the labour force behaviour of older people in Ireland. Workers close to retirement age face a trade-off between earnings from continued work and benefit payments from income security programmes (public and private). Using the methodology portrayed in Gruber and Wise (1999), we simulate the long-term payoffs arising from these programmes, i.e. income security wealth, its accrual, and the tax on work for stylised cases in Ireland. We find that income security programmes in Ireland are an important feature of the opportunity set for older workers planning their retirement. Our results highlight the important variation in the Irish retirement system and hence it is difficult to draw general conclusions. Nonetheless, our results are innovative and an original contribution to pension policy in Ireland. Half the workforce depends on public old-age income provision only and we find that this system embeds important financial signals for early retirement. We find that people depending on public state pension only have incentives to retire, especially for low earners. For people who also have an occupational pension, the incentive to retire early is much stronger.
Simple Mathematical Model Of Pathologic Microsatellite Expansions: When Self-Reparation Does Not Work

description: We propose a simple model of pathologic microsatellite expansion, and describe an inherent self-repairing mechanism working against expansion. We prove that if the probabilities of elementary expansions and contractions are equal, microsatellite expansions are always self-repairing. If these probabilities are different, self-reparation does not work. Mosaicism, anticipation and reverse mutation cases are discussed in the framework of the model. We explain these phenomena and provide some theoretical evidence for their properties, for example the rarity of reverse mutations.

description: We have obtained a new limit on the electron neutrino effective charge radius from a new evaluation of the weak mixing angle by a combined fit of all electron-(anti)neutrino electron elastic scattering measurements. Weak mixing angle is found to be sin^2 theta_W=0.259 \pm 0.025 in the low energy regime below 100 MeV. The electron neutrino charge radius squared is bounded to be in the range -0.13 10^-32 cm^2 < r^2 < 3.32 10^-32 cm^2 at 90 % C.L. Both results improve previously published analyses. We also discuss perspectives of future experiments to improve these constraints.

The uptake of arsenicals by the marine algae Isochrysis galbana and Dunaliella tertiolecta
Creators: name: Tsang, Angela Ka Yen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Two marine algae, Isochrysis galbana and Dunaliella tertiolecta, were grown in the presence of arsenate, arsenite, monomethylarsonate (MMA), and dimethylarsinate (DMA). Cell growth was monitored by using in vivo fluorescence and cell density measurements. The effects of different levels of arsenicals on the arsenic uptake were examined using Hydride Generation Atomic Absorption (HGAA) Spectrometry and Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption (GFAA) Spectrometry. The spin-echo ¹H NMR spectra of these algae are reported. Significant arsenic uptake and incorporation occurred when both algae were subjected to elevated levels of arsenicals. I. galbana was most affected by arsenite at the range of concentrations tested (2 - 8 ppm). Total incorporation is also the highest in this medium. The alga seems to be able to adapt to high arsenate concentrations. D. tertiolecta was most affected by elevated levels of arsenate (10.7 ppm). Water soluble extracts of algal cells grown in this medium contain at least four arsenicals which possibly include arsenate and arsenite. Growth of both algae was not affected by DMA at the levels examined. Growth enhancement is observed in all MMA treated cultures. Arsenic speciation of the residual media showed that both algae can reduce arsenate to arsenite.

description: Recent years have shown a growing appreciation for the place of culture in sustaining economic and social prosperity. This paper explores this recognition through a case study of Galway City on the west coast of Ireland. It sets out to answer two simple and related questions: How important has culture been to the city's economic and social development?; and how integral is culture in maintaining the city's economic and social sustainability? In order to provide answers we look at the city's development in relation to an emerging body of literature concerning creative cities. The city itself is a dynamic second tier city that functions as the main economic hub serving the central west of the country. We focus on production of culture and gauge its assimilation into the economic life of the city by looking at various facets of the city's economic structure including one of its most innovative sectors: the technology industry. The aim of this paper is to analyze cultural policy in Ireland within the domains of Technology; Institutions; and Spatial Culture. The case study of Galway provides interesting insights for policy and practice as well as cultural/creative activity arising out of place specific circumstances. Throughout the paper the reaction of some of the city's major arts groups and sponsors to the changing role of culture is explored and the paper concludes by drawing attention to the tensions surrounding the perceptions of ownership of culture and questions to what impact this will have regarding the city's sustainability into the future.

description: The additivity principle of the extreme shell model stipulates that an average value of a one-body operator be equal to the sum of the core contribution and effective contributions of valence (particle or hole) nucleons. For quadrupole moment and angular momentum operators, we test this principle for highly and superdeformed rotational bands in the A~130 nuclei. Calculations are done in the self-consistent cranked non-relativistic Hartree-Fock and relativistic Hartree mean-field approaches. Results indicate that the additivity principle is a valid concept that justifies the use of an extreme single-particle model in an unpaired regime typical of high angular momenta.

description: The Network approach is a useful heuristic tool that enables us to focus on the network structure, inter-linkages between actors and help determining how the networks change over time. The present study used the network approach to understand the degree to which technology based clusters (TBCs); industries, firms and products are enmeshed and linked in a network. The study indicates the important features and structure of high-tech industrial organisation in Ireland. Various network-based measures of connectivity and embeddedness of these competitive technology clusters in the network are used to determine the behaviour, and the range of opportunities, influence, and power that the industries and TBCs have. The study also examines whether capabilities are transferrable across these TBCs and industries in an evolutionary manner through technological convergence. Demographics of 2280 high-tech firms that comprise 8 competitive technology based clusters in Ireland are used to construct this network and an extensive product classification is used to create linkages between the technologies and industries.

description: We use a toy model to illustrate how to build effective theories for singular potentials. We consider a central attractive 1/r^2 potential perturbed by a 1/r^4 correction. The power-counting rule, an important ingredient of effective theory, is established by seeking the minimum set of short-range counterterms that renormalize the scattering amplitude. We show that leading-order counterterms are needed in all partial waves where the potential overcomes the centrifugal barrier, and that the additional counterterms at next-to-leading order are the ones expected on the basis of dimensional analysis.

description: We extend the stationary-state work fluctuation theorem to periodically modulated nonlinear systems. Such systems often have coexisting stable periodic states. We show that work fluctuations sharply increase near a kinetic phase transition where the state populations are close to each other. The work variance is proportional here to the reciprocal rate of interstate switching. We also show that the variance displays scaling with the distance to a bifurcation point and find the critical exponent for a saddle-node bifurcation.

description: This paper uses eight years of data of the National Farm Survey (NFS) to analyse the statics and dynamics of the farm earnings distribution in the period 1994 to 2001, and asks the question: is the Irish farming sector close to a society where individuals move up and down the earnings ladder over time, or is it more similar to a society where individuals are stuck in the same step? I find that for those who find themselves in the middle of the Irish farm earnings distribution the answer is close to the former but for those at either end of the Irish farm earnings distribution the answer is much closer to the latter. In getting to this answer we look at earnings inequality, characterise transition probabilities and model earnings dynamics as a purely stochastic process.

Heating and Turbulence Driving by Galaxy Motions in Galaxy Clusters

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Using three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations, we investigate heating and turbulence driving in an intracluster medium (ICM) by orbital motions of galaxies in a galaxy cluster. We consider Ng member galaxies on isothermal and isotropic orbits through an ICM typical of rich clusters. An introduction of the galaxies immediately produces gravitational wakes, providing perturbations that can potentially grow via resonant interaction with the background gas. When Ng^{1/2}Mg_11 < 100, where Mg_11 is each galaxy mass in units of 10^{11} Msun, the perturbations are in the linear regime and the resonant excitation of gravity waves is efficient to generate kinetic energy in the ICM, resulting in the velocity dispersion sigma_v ~ 2.2 Ng^{1/2}Mg_11 km/s. When Ng^{1/2}Mg_11 > 100, on the other hand, nonlinear fluctuations of the background ICM destroy galaxy wakes and thus render resonant excitation weak or absent. In this case, the kinetic energy saturates at the level corresponding to sigma_v ~ 220 km/s. The angle-averaged velocity power spectra of turbulence driven in our models have slopes in the range of -3.7 to -4.3. With the nonlinear saturation of resonant excitation, none of the cooling models considered are able to halt cooling catastrophe, suggesting that the galaxy motions alone are unlikely to solve the cooling flow problem.

description: Twisted torus links are given by twisting a subset of strands on a closed braid representative of a torus link. T--links are a natural generalization, given by repeated positive twisting. We establish a one-to-one correspondence between positive braid representatives of Lorenz links and T--links, so Lorenz links and T--links coincide. Using this correspondence, we identify over half of the simplest hyperbolic knots as Lorenz knots. We show that both hyperbolic volume and the Mahler measure of Jones polynomials are bounded for infinite collections of hyperbolic Lorenz links. The correspondence provides unexpected symmetries for both Lorenz links and T-links, and establishes many new results for T-links, including new braid index formulas.

description: We prove a nearly optimal bound on the number of stable homotopy types occurring in a k-parameter semi-algebraic family of sets in $\R^\ell$, each defined in terms of m quadratic inequalities. Our bound is exponential in k and m, but polynomial in $\ell$. More precisely, we prove the following. Let $\R$ be a real closed field and let \[ {\mathcal P} = \{P_1,...,P_m\} \subset \R[Y_1,...,Y_\ell,X_1,...,X_k], \] with ${\rm deg}_Y(P_i) \leq 2, {\rm deg}_X(P_i) \leq d, 1 \leq i \leq m$. Let $S \subset \R^{\ell+k}$ be a semi-algebraic set, defined by a Boolean formula without negations, whose atoms are of the form, $P \geq 0, P\leq 0, P \in {\mathcal P}$. Let $π: \R^{\ell+k} \to \R^k$ be the projection on the last k co-ordinates. Then, the number of stable homotopy types amongst the fibers $S_{\x} = π^{-1}(\x) \cap S$ is bounded by \[ (2^m\ell k d)^{O(mk)}. \]

description: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of inward foreign direct investment (FDI) in instigating a clustering process. In particular, the study examines the situation in which FDI is initially attracted to a region as a result of public policy initiatives rather than the existence of sophisticated local capabilities. Under these circumstances, the presence of large foreign-owned multinational corporations (MNCs) is shown to result in local knowledge transfers and regional reputation effects. These effects give rise to a clustering process, which contrary to other perspectives (PHELPS 2008), shows that external economies can be captured locally from FDI.

description: We study cosmological solutions in the low-energy effective heterotic string theory, which is the Einstein gravity with Gauss-Bonnet term and the dilaton. We show that the field equations are cast into an autonomous system for flat internal and external spaces, and derive all the fixed points in the system. We also examine the time evolution of the solutions and whether the solutions can give (transient) accelerated expansion of our four-dimensional space in the Einstein frame.

Lasionycta skraelingia

description: Lasionycta skraelingia species-group The L. skraelingia species-group is characterized by the shape of the female bursa. The corpus bursae is round and the appendix bursae arises from its left side and extends straight anteriorly. Th e bursae of all other species-groups are ovoid with the appendix arising from the dorsal side of the posterior end. Th e ovipositor lobes are soft and covered by hair-like setae. The male has a long vesica, approximately 3× the aedeagus length. The vesica has a 90° subbasal bend dorsad and toward the left, with a short broad diverticulum at the bend of the vesica bearing 1–3 tiny, spike-like cornuti. The distal vesica is gently curved and twisted with spiraling of the sclerotized band. It bears an elongate distal field of fine velvety cornuti. The valve has a short digitus that ends before reaching the ventral valve margin. Th e uncus is dorsoventrally flattened and slightly widened with a rounded apex. Th e male antennae are weakly biserrate, approximately 1.4× width of the shaft. Males of the L. phaea and L. secedens species-groups also have long vesicae. The L. phaea species-group differs in having a broad spatulate uncus, and L. secedens can easily be distinguished from the L. skraelingia species-group by its yellow and black hindwing and by the genital characters given in its species-group description. Both L. phaea and L. secedens have a narrower beadlike antenna than those of the L. skraelingia species-group. Lafontaine and Kononenko (1988) revised the L. skraelingia species-group. Only two species included by them are retained in the species-group in the present work, with the remainder forming the L. phaea species-group. The L. skraelingia species-group has a Holarctic distribution with both species occurring in North America.

description: Building and Sustaining Fulcrum: A Digital Publishing Platform for Humanists and Social Scientists

Emma DiPasquale (Michigan Publishing, University of Michigan Library, United States)

Short abstract:

This presentation will discuss the creation and development of Michigan Publishing’s Fulcrum, a community-based publishing platform focused on presenting the best possible representations of work in the humanities and social sciences.

Long abstract:

Michigan Publishing--the hub of scholarly publishing at the University of Michigan situated in the University Library--saw a need for a platform that addressed the needs of scholarly authors who wished to link source materials to book-length interpretations of them in an integrated way. This is an emerging need in media-rich humanistic fields such as digital humanities; from accumulating collections of film and video clips for comparison to visualizing excavation records through three-dimensional interactive models, humanists today often end their research projects with large archives of digital data. With support from the Mellon Foundation, Michigan Publishing and the University of Michigan Library developed Fulcrum, a community-based, open source digital publishing platform to help these scholars present these materials. Rather than forcing authors to strip away the richness of these materials at the point of formal publication to meet the constraints of a book or journal article format, Fulcrum facilitates rich integration of such digital objects with the narratives that reference them. They can either be published as supplemental materials, with the narrative (a book, a journal article) elsewhere, or both narrative and data can be presented together as an embedded EPUB. We have been expanding our development to include more expansive digital humanities projects, though we recognize the difficulty these projects can oftentimes present, especially in terms of preservation and accessibility. This is why we approach such projects through the lens of our values: accessibility, flexibility, durability, and discoverability. Our work with with various press and publishing partners are helping us to better understand the needs of these scholars and how to develop the platform to support these kinds of works. Several of our forthcoming projects have prompted research and development for interactive maps, geospatial mapping, interactive EPUBs, 3D modeling, and annotation tools.
Strongly-correlated multi-particle transport in one-dimension through a quantum impurity: an outline of exact and complete solutions
Creators: name: Shen, Jung-Tsung

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider the transport properties of multiple-particle quantum states in a class of one-dimensional systems with a single quantum impurity. In these systems, the local interaction at the quantum impurity induces strong and non-trivial correlations between the multi-particles. We outline an exact theoretical approach, based upon real-space equations of motion and the Bethe ansatz, that allows one to construct the full scattering matrix (S-matrix) for these systems. In particular, we emphasize the need for completeness check upon the eigenstates of the S-matrix, when these states obtained from Bethe Ansatz are used for describing the scattering properties. As a detailed example of our approach, we solve the transport properties of two photons incident on a single two-level atom, when the photons are restricted to a one-dimensional system such as a photonic crystal waveguide. Our approach predicts a number of novel nonlinear effects involving only two photons, including background fluorescence, spatial attraction and repulsion between the photons, as well as the emergence of a two-photon bound state.
