description: Washington, D.C. has experienced an accelerated development period over the past fifteen years. In an effort to revitalize neighborhoods devastated by the race riots of 1968, the adaptive reuse of historic community buildings is often employed in an effort to preserve civic identity and culture. Through an in-depth qualitative case study analysis of multi-use arts organizations, this study uncovers the roles these institutions play within their respective communities as well as identifies commonalities and indicators of success and barriers to community engagement and revitalization. Through this analysis, the researcher draws conclusions about the makeup of the multi-use art space community and their constituencies over all, the challenges, weaknesses and barriers they face in community engagement and revitalization, and the current climate for management and operation of these spaces.

Measurement cost of metric-aware variational quantum algorithms

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Variational quantum algorithms are promising tools for near-term quantum computers as their shallow circuits are robust to experimental imperfections. Their practical applicability, however, strongly depends on how many times their circuits need to be executed for sufficiently reducing shot-noise. We consider metric-aware quantum algorithms: variational algorithms that use a quantum computer to efficiently estimate both a matrix and a vector object. For example, the recently introduced quantum natural gradient approach uses the quantum Fisher information matrix as a metric tensor to correct the gradient vector for the co-dependence of the circuit parameters. We rigorously characterise and upper bound the number of measurements required to determine an iteration step to a fixed precision, and propose a general approach for optimally distributing samples between matrix and vector entries. Finally, we establish that the number of circuit repetitions needed for estimating the quantum Fisher information matrix is asymptotically negligible for an increasing number of iterations and qubits.

description: We present an analysis of the X-ray emission for a complete sample of 288 Abell clusters spanning the redshift range 0.016<= z <= 0.09 from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. This sample is based on our 20cm VLA survey of nearby Abell clusters. We find an X-ray detection rate of 83%. We report cluster X-ray fluxes and luminosities and two different flux ratios indicative of the concentration and extent of the emission. We examine correlations between the X-ray luminosity, Abell Richness, and Bautz-Morgan and Rood-Sastry cluster morphologies. We find a strong correlation between Lx and cluster richness coupled to a dependence on the optical morphological type. These results are consistent with the observed scatter between X-ray luminosity and temperature and a large fraction of cooling flows. For each cluster field we also report the positions, peak X-ray fluxes, and flux-ratios of all X-ray peaks above 3-sigma significance within a box of 2x2 Mpc centered on Abell's position.

description: Unexpected changes in energy prices, including prices for gasoline and heating fuel (natural gas and electricity), can affect three indicators of food distress, or food access at the household level. This study uses data from the Current Population Survey Food Security Supplement and the U.S. Energy Information Administration to examine the effects of unexpected changes in energy prices on household food security. Findings reveal that an unexpected rise in the prices of gasoline, natural gas, and electricity increases the probability of food access problems, while an unexpected drop in the price of each energy source decreases the probability. The overall estimates from the analysis are small, but the effects of energy price shocks increase in magnitude for low-income households. This effect suggests that low-income households are more vulnerable to unexpected jumps in energy prices than households with higher incomes.

Efficiency Guarantees for Parallel Incremental Algorithms under Relaxed Schedulers

description: Several classic problems in graph processing and computational geometry are solved via incremental algorithms, which split computation into a series of small tasks acting on shared state, which gets updated progressively. While the sequential variant of such algorithms usually specifies a fixed (but sometimes random) order in which the tasks should be performed, a standard approach to parallelizing such algorithms is to relax this constraint to allow for out-of-order parallel execution. This is the case for parallel implementations of Dijkstra's single-source shortest-paths algorithm (SSSP), and for parallel Delaunay mesh triangulation. While many software frameworks parallelize incremental computation in this way, it is still not well understood whether this relaxed ordering approach can still provide any complexity guarantees. In this paper, we address this problem, and analyze the efficiency guarantees provided by a range of incremental algorithms when parallelized via relaxed schedulers. We show that, for algorithms such as Delaunay mesh triangulation and sorting by insertion, schedulers with a maximum relaxation factor of $k$ in terms of the maximum priority inversion allowed will introduce a maximum amount of wasted work of $O(log(n) poly (k) ), $ where $n$ is the number of tasks to be executed. For SSSP, we show that the additional work is $O(poly (k) d_{max} / w_{min}), $ where $d_{\max}$ is the maximum distance between two nodes, and $w_{min}$ is the minimum such distance. In practical settings where $n \gg k$, this suggests that the overheads of relaxation will be outweighed by the improved scalability of the relaxed scheduler. On the negative side, we provide lower bounds showing that certain algorithms will inherently incur a non-trivial amount of wasted work due to scheduler relaxation, even for relatively benign relaxed schedulers.

description: It is shown that the scattering length can be obtained by solving a Riccati equation derived from variable phase theory. Two methods of solving it are presented. The equation is used to predict how long-range interactions influence the scattering length, and upper and lower bounds on the scattering length are determined. The predictions are compared with others and it is shown how they may be obtained from secular perturbation theory.

Switchback effect of holographic complexity in multiple-horizon black holes

description: In this paper, we use the "complexity equals action" (CA) conjecture to explore the switchback effect in the strongly-coupled quantum field theories with finite $N$ and finite coupling effects. In the perspective of holography, this is equivalent to evaluating the CA complexity in a Vaidya geometry equipped with a light shockwave for a higher curvature gravitational theory. Based on the Noether charge formalism of Iyer and Wald, we obtain the slope of the complexity of formation in the small and large time approximations. By circuit analogy, we show that our results concur with the switchback effect of the quantum system. These results show that the switchback effect is a general feature of the CA complexity in stationary black holes and its existence is independent of the explicit gravitational theory as well as spacetime background. From the viewpoint of AdS/CFT, this also implies that the switchback effect is a general feature of the thermofield double state in the strongly-coupled quantum field systems with finite $N$ and finite coupling effects. Moreover, we also illustrate that unlike the late-time complexity growth rate, the counterterm plays an important role in the study of the switchback effect.

description: In der vorliegenden Masterarbeit wird der Frage nachgegangen, wie Lehrpersonen hochsensible erkennen und inwiefern sie sie unterstützen können. Die qualitative Arbeit besteht aus einem theoretischen und einem empirischen Teil. Um die Forschungsfrage beantworten zu können, wurden zwei Experteninterviews durchgeführt und jeweils zwei Lehrpersonen, zwei Mütter und zwei Kinder befragt. Die gewonnenen Daten wurden mittels qualitativer Inhaltsanalyse ausgewertet. Am Ende wurden theoretische Aspekte der Hochsensibilität mit den Interviewergebnissen verknüpft. Die Ergebnisse der Forschungsarbeit zeigen, dass die Lehrpersonen sowie Eltern hochsensible Kinder anhand ihrer Übererregbarkeit erkennen. Diese äussern sich in Rückzug, Symptomale Schmerzen, Weinen oder Aggression. Ihre emotionale Intensität bzw. das Nachhallen hindert sie manchmal daran, in der Schule aufmerksam zu sein und ihre Leistungen zeigen zu können. Doch eine verständnisvolle, beziehungsorientierte Lehrperson kann ihnen mit einer feinen, bewussten Sprache begegnen. Dabei gibt es auch verschiedene Strategien, einer Überreizung zuvorzukommen oder sie gut abzufangen. Diese werden in der Arbeit vorgestellt. Ein individualisierter und strukturierter Unterricht ist geeignet für hochsensible Kinder. Leider sind aktuell die Klassen zu gross und stellen für hochsensible Kinder eine enorme Herausforderung dar. Da sind kreative Lösungen der Lehrpersonen gefragt und eine gute Zusammenarbeit mit anderen Fachleuten und den Eltern von Vorteil.

Publisher: name: American University

description: My thesis focuses on Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's pendant paintings titled La danse au Moulin Rouge (Dance at the Moulin Rouge) and La danse mauresque (The Moorish Dance). These two works, collectively known as Les panneaux pour la baraque de La Goulue à la Foire du Trône (Panels for the fun fair booth of La Goulue at the Foire du Trône), have been underemphasized by scholars in part because they do not adhere to the hierarchies of value that have been established between fine art and the applied arts; nor do they support the much-mythologized image of Lautrec. Although Toulouse-Lautrec's commercial accomplishments are widely recognized by scholars today, and contribute to his mythic persona as a bohemian artist steeped in the culture of Montmartre, his paintings continue to be privileged as the more "authentic" portion of his artistic output. Furthermore, the commissioning of these works by the cancaneuse "La Goulue" (Louise Weber) has also inhibited their study. A woman known for licentiousness on- and off-stage, La Goulue cannot be considered a conventionally feminist figure, and therefore has been denied the agency accorded to fellow popular dancers, such as Jane Avril and Loïe Fuller, who were also depicted by Toulouse-Lautrec and have received more scholarly attention. My study provides a comprehensive account of the panels, encompassing a range of questions raised by the works themselves and the biographical and historical contexts that produced them. Products of collaboration, the panels are evidence of La Goulue and Toulouse-Lautrec's symbiotic relationship, one necessitated by the need to individualize and sensationalize oneself in order to achieve and maintain fame both within the Parisian art world and the entertainment industry.
Full Causal Bulk Viscous Cosmologies with time-varying Constants

description: We study the evolution of a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker Universe, filled with a bulk viscous cosmological fluid, in the presence of time varying ``constants''. The dimensional analysis of the model suggests a proportionality between the bulk viscous pressure of the dissipative fluid and the energy density. On using this assumption and with the choice of the standard equations of state for the bulk viscosity coefficient, temperature and relaxation time, the general solution of the field equations can be obtained, with all physical parameters having a power-law time dependence. The symmetry analysis of this model, performed by using Lie group techniques, confirms the unicity of the solution for this functional form of the bulk viscous pressure. In order to find another possible solution we relax the hypotheses assuming a concrete functional dependence for the ``constants''.

Distribution of pseudo-critical temperatures and lack of self-averaging in disordered Poland-Scheraga models with different loop exponents

description: According to recent progresses in the finite size scaling theory of disordered systems, thermodynamic observables are not self-averaging at critical points when the disorder is relevant in the Harris criterion sense. This lack of self-averageness at criticality is directly related to the distribution of pseudo-critical temperatures $T_c(i,L)$ over the ensemble of samples $(i)$ of size $L$. In this paper, we apply this analysis to disordered Poland-Scheraga models with different loop exponents $c$,corresponding to marginal and relevant disorder. In all cases, we numerically obtain a Gaussian histogram of pseudo-critical temperatures $T_c(i,L)$ with mean $T_c^{av}(L)$ and width $ΔT_c(L)$. For the marginal case $c=1.5$ corresponding to two-dimensional wetting, both the width $ΔT_c(L)$ and the shift $[T_c(\infty)-T_c^{av}(L)]$ decay as $L^{-1/2}$, so the exponent is unchanged ($ν_{random}=2=ν_{pure}$) but disorder is relevant and leads to non self-averaging at criticality. For relevant disorder $c=1.75$, the width $ΔT_c(L)$ and the shift $[T_c(\infty)-T_c^{av}(L)]$ decay with the same new exponent $L^{-1/ν_{random}}$ (where $ν_{random} \sim 2.7 > 2 > ν_{pure}$) and there is again no self-averaging at criticality. Finally for the value $c=2.15$, of interest in the context of DNA denaturation, the transition is first-order in the pure case. In the presence of disorder, the width $ΔT_c(L) \sim L^{-1/2}$ dominates over the shift $[T_c(\infty)-T_c^{av}(L)] \sim L^{-1}$, i.e. there are two correlation length exponents $ν=2$ and $\tilde ν=1$ that govern respectively the averaged/typical loop distribution.

description: Traditional systems of agriculture still feed millions of people in tropical countries. There is probably a superior limit to their yield potentials, especially in over-populated situations. However, many things can be learned about the biological mechanisms which explain their productivity, and perhaps it is possible to imagine ameliorated systems in which productivity would be ameliorated by minimal inputs of chemical aid, and adequate plant breeding.

description: The approach in Foias et al. (1996) is one of the well-developed methods to design H-infinity controllers for general infinite dimensional systems. This approach is applicable if the plant admits a special coprime inner/outer factorization. We give the largest class of single-input-single-output (SISO) time delay systems for which this factorization is possible and factorize the admissible plants. Based on this factorization, we compute the optimal H-infinity performance and eliminate unstable pole-zero cancellations in the optimal H-infinity controller. We extend the results on the finite impulse response (FIR) structure of optimal H-infinity controllers by showing that this structure appears not only for plants with input/output (I/O) delays, but also for general SISO time-delay plants.

description: The purpose of this article is to review agricultural pesticide monitoring methods and suggest ways to protect farm labor from unnecessary exposure. A comparison of pesticide exposure for various application methods indicates exposure in the order, airblast > high-boy > low-boy > hand application. Anatomical regions of the body receive total exposure in the order, hands > legs > arms > chest > head, with the back and buttocks generally receiving lower exposure. Urinary metabolite and blood acetylcholinesterase methods are generally not definitive for monitoring exposure except in acute poisoning cases. Possible protective methods suggested by these exposure studies are outlined, with particular reference to small farm use.

PREGNANT WOMEN'S ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE IN THE OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY: APPLICATION UNDER THE ROME STATUTE OF THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT
Creators: name: Shoaibi, Halla
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Israel’s occupation regime and subsequent closure apparatus in Palestine manifests in numerous ways. In a span of seven years, Israeli military authorities delayed pregnant Palestinian women at checkpoints at an annual rate of ten percent, resulting in sixty-nine cases of birth en route to hospitals, with thirty-five infant and five maternal deaths. This dissertation tracks the historical development of childbirth and maternity health care services in Palestine, and discusses the effect of the Palestinian political context on the health of pregnant women. It goes on to establish that as a result of Israeli closure policies, restrictions placed on pregnant women’s access to health care constitutes a war crime of outrage upon personal dignity, as defined by Article 8(2)(b)xxi of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. While a number of births and deaths have been documented, many others have gone unnoticed. Existing reports fail to note any prior or post-traumatic stress disorders faced by pregnant Palestinian women as a result of this commonly occurring humiliating and degrading treatment. Moreover, national and international laws still remain unclear on the consequences and penalties of such acts. Between 2005 and 2009, the United Nations Commission on Human Rights issued several resolutions addressing the issue of Palestinian pregnant women giving birth at Israeli checkpoints. The United Nation’s concern regarding this issue is an indicator of the gravity of this problem. However, no legal recourse has been employed to attain justice for the women whose dignity has been violated or for the infants they lost. Given the inactivity of Israeli and Palestinian national judicial systems, this dissertation provides an international framework for adjudicating Israeli restrictions placed on the movement of pregnant Palestinian women.

description: The experimental discovery of the fractional Hall conductivity in two-dimensional electron gases revealed new types of quantum particles, called anyons, which are beyond bosons and fermions as they possess fractionalized exchange statistics. These anyons are usually studied deep inside an insulating topological phase. It is natural to ask whether such fractionalization can be detected more broadly, say near a phase transition from a conventional to a topological phase. To answer this question, we study a strongly correlated quantum phase transition between a topological state, called a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ quantum spin liquid, and a conventional superfluid using large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Our results show that the universal conductivity at the quantum critical point becomes a simple fraction of its value at the conventional insulator-to-superfluid transition. Moreover, a dynamically self-dual optical conductivity emerges at low temperatures above the transition point, indicating the presence of the elusive vison particles. Our study opens the door for the experimental detection of anyons in a broader regime, and has ramifications in the study of quantum materials, programmable quantum simulators, and ultra-cold atomic gases. In the latter case, we discuss the feasibility of measurements in optical lattices using current techniques.

title: Refining Open Educational Resources For Both Learner And Institution
Creators: name: Law, Patrina
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2019

description: The Open Educational Resources (OER) movement over the past ten years has described many benefits of releasing learning for free, including business remunerations to institutions as well as a means to altruistically reach underserved groups. By examining learner behaviour and motivation, the papers collated for this PhD by Published Work bring a critical analysis to the experience of delivering OER addressing the broad research question “How can the refinement of OER benefit both learner and institution?”. A range of qualitative and quantitative research methodologies and associated website analytics are used to investigate the challenges of repurposing OER together with how the motivations of those wishing to take advantage of OER usage can be better supported. During the five-year time line of these papers, formal students and informal learners, predominantly UK-based, were surveyed by the author generating several thousand responses. These surveys focussed mainly on a large institutional endeavour to deliver OER at The Open University, key findings from which show the business impact of open educational practice where literature had provided only theoretical assumptions. The data also exposes the many and varied motivations of learners using OER where literature has focused largely on the experience and attitudes of educators. The thesis reveals learners’ problems with OER usability more generally, and critically, the desire for certification of OER study against the prohibitive costs of studying in higher education. It describes the development by the author and associated impact of the application of digital badges (or ‘micro-credentials’) to reward users of OER as recognition for informal learning achievements. The thesis includes recommendations that extend beyond one institution’s OER policy, regarding the design and curation of OER globally to better serve the needs of learners, particularly those who cannot afford formal study. It also highlights the need to bring together OER and micro-credentials more cohesively to explore the potential of a framework of core work-related skills needed for a digital economy. It is concluded that there is an economy of scale to the delivery of OER, but that the key to successful impact is through robust open educational practice, instructional design and tangible recognition to learners of their achievements.

description: The ubiquitous weedy form of Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit is capable of producing 1,000-2,000 kg/ha/yr of good quality protein. Its production capacity responds to elevation, rainfall, and soil type in addition to imposed management practices. The cultivars 'El Salvador' and 'Peru' produce 1,000-4,000 kg/ha/yr under similar treatments. Leucaena protein is high in nutritional quality. Amino acids are present in well-balanced proportions. Information from tropical and subtropical regions is sparse as to location and extent it is used as human food. Leaves, flowers, fruiting pods and seeds at various stages of maturity are consumed either cooked or uncooked. Various plant parts are eaten separately or as components in salads or soups. Highly proteinaceous foods such as "botok," "toge," and "tempeh lamtoro" are made from leucaena. Leucaena is of limited value as a food source in widely scattered regions of the tropics and subtropics. Despite the known detrimental effects of leucaena, its consumption as food probably exceeds that which is recorded in the literature. Leucaena is unsurpassed as a renewable source of high quality protein for food and feed.

description: We present simulations of causal dynamical collapse models of field theories on a 1+1 null lattice. We use our simulations to compare and contrast two possible interpretations of the models, one in which the field values are real and the other in which the state vector is real. We suggest that a procedure of coarse graining and renormalising the fundamental field can overcome its noisiness and argue that this coarse grained renormalised field will show interesting structure if the state vector does on the coarse grained scale.
