Prediction of topological bifurcations for random dynamical systems
Creators: name: Malavolta, Giuseppe
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: We consider random dynamical systems with bounded noise and their associated set-valued mappings. Broadly speaking, the set-valued mapping, associated to a random dynamical system with bounded noise, maps an initial condition to the set of all possible outcomes of the application of the random dynamical system. In Chapter \ref{ch:ews} we consider the topological bifurcations of some special sets defined for set-valued mappings, called minimal invariant sets. A minimal invariant set is left invariant by the application of a set-valued map and does not contain proper invariant sets. By the results provided by Lamb, Rasmussen, and Rodrigues in \cite{LambRasmussenRodrigues}, a topological bifurcation of a minimal invariant set models a, so called, critical transition, i.e. a drastic change of the state of a physical system. We will show that the derivative of some special maps, called the extremal maps, describe the bifurcation of a minimal invariant set. Based on the derivative of the extremal maps, we develop a new early warning signal, i.e. a method for predicting a critical transition. In Chapter \ref{ch:dich}, we will switch the context back to random dynamical systems. We will introduce a dichotomy spectrum for noninvertible linear random dynamical systems and we will prove a new version of the spectral theorem. This will be a direct continuation of the work by Callaway, Son, Lamb and Rasmussen in \cite{callaway2013dichotomy}, where they introduce a notion of spectrum for \emph{invertible} linear random dynamical systems, and prove a spectral theorem. In Chapter \ref{ch:appl}, we consider a one dimensional random dynamical system with bounded noise exhibiting a pitchfork bifurcation. We will show that our early warning signal, developed in Chapter \ref{ch:ews}, and the spectrum, calculated for the linearization, describe a bifurcation: the derivative of the extremal map at the boundary reaches the value $1$ and the spectrum expands to contain $1$ at the bifurcation point.

description: We have measured the correlation between the lensing signal induced by (dark) matter and number counts of galaxies on scales ranging from 0.15-3.0 h_{50}^{-1} Mpc (which correspond to aperture radii of 1-15 arcminutes). This provides a direct probe of the scale dependence of the ratio of the classical bias parameter b and the galaxy-mass correlation coefficient r. The results presented here are based on 16 deg^2 of R_C band data taken with the CFHT as part of the Red-Sequence Cluster Survey. We used a sample of lens galaxies with 19.5

The type III stress-energy tensor: Ugly Duckling of the Hawking-Ellis classification

description: We present some advances in the understanding of type III stress-energy tensors as per the Hawking-Ellis classification. Type I and type II naturally appear in classical situations, and can also describe semiclassical effects. Type IV often shows up in semiclassical gravity. Type III is much more subtle. We focus our attention on type III$_0$ stress-energy tensors, which capture the essence ("essential core") of type III. Reflecting on known purely phenomenological examples, ("gyratons"), we are able to generalize the geometry generated by those type III$_0$ stress-energy tensors. Moreover, we also succeed in extending work by Griffiths based on massless Weyl spinors by finding a fundamental classical bosonic Lagrangian description of these type III$_0$ stress-energy tensors. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time in the literature that a consistent classical bosonic Lagrangian formulation for type III$_0$ stress-energy has been found.

description: This book is a dictionary and grammar sketch of Ik, one of the three Kuliak (Rub) languages spoken in the beautiful Karamoja region of northeastern Uganda. It is the lexicographic sequel to A grammar of Ik (Icé-tód): Northeast Uganda’s last thriving Kuliak language (Schrock 2014). The present volume includes an Ik-English dictionary with roughly 8,700 entries, followed by a reversed English-Ik index. These two main sections are then supplemented with an outline of Ik grammar that is comprehensive in its coverage of topics and written in a simple style, using standard linguistic terminology in a way that is accessible to interested non-linguists as well. This book may prove useful for language preservation and development among the Ik people, as a reference tool for non-Ik learners of the language, and as a source of data, not only for the comparative study of Kuliak but also the wider Afroasiatic and Nilo- Saharan language families.

Enhancing feedback and learning from centralised incident reporting systems: translating information into action
Creators: name: Mohammed, Salmaan
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: Incident reporting systems in healthcare are a globally established strategy for managing risk and safety. Developed from similar applications in other high-risk industries, incident reports can function to show key failures of systems, organisations and teams, and can be analysed to improve and facilitate risk minimisation. This PhD aims to investigate effective feedback and learning from Centralised Incident Reporting Systems (CIRS) through the lens of The National Reporting and Learning System. An evidence review was conducted to explore the current understanding of effective learning from CIRS. Following this, qualitative explorations at local and national level were conducted to explore current practice for generating feedback and learning, the system requirements which facilitate effective learning, and recommendations to facilitate effective learning from incidents. Expert opinion offered a number of ways in which feedback and learning can be effective, more refined and relevant to front line staff. Learning and reporting are functions of a system in which the culture uplifts staff to naturally do better and want to learn from mistakes. The type of learning output is key to understanding how well key learning can be applied, and by whom. Findings were synthesised using a constant comparative method to establish themes recurring throughout this work. The Ghulam-Arshad model presented in chapter 5 condenses and links the work across this PhD in the form of input-process-output, to conceptualise the relationship between reporting and learning, and how it is heavily underpinned by context and culture in healthcare organisations.
New clues to the evolution of dwarf early-type galaxies

description: Surface photometry of 18 Virgo cluster dwarf elliptical (dE) and dwarf lenticular (dS0) galaxies, made by Gavazzi et al. (2001) in the H-band (1.65 micron) and in the B-band (0.44 micron), shows that the ratio of the effective radii of these stellar systems in the B- and H-band, r_{e B}/r_{e H}, ranges between 0.7 and 2.2. In particular, dwarf ellipticals and lenticulars with a red total color index B-H (i.e. with 3.2 < B-H < 4) have equal effective radii in these two pass-bands. By contrast, blue (i.e. with 2.5 < B-H < 3.1) dEs and dS0s have B-band effective radii about 50% longer than the H-band ones, on average. Consistently, strong negative gradients in B-H along the galactocentric radius are found to be associated with blue total colors. This trend is not found in a sample of 29 giant E and S0 galaxies of the Coma cluster with analogous data available in the literature. These early-type giants span a broad range in r_{e B}/r_{e H} (0.2--2.2), with a mean r_{e B}/r_{e H} of about 1.1, but a narrow range in (red) color (3.3 < B-H < 4.2). In these stellar systems, color gradients are usually interpreted as due either to age/metallicity gradients along the radial coordinate or to dust attenuation, whatever the total color of the system is. Assuming each of these three distinct interpretations of the origin of color gradients, we discuss the origin of the association of strong negative color gradients with blue colors found in the early-type dwarfs under study, in relation with current scenarios of formation and evolution of dE and dS0 galaxies.

Normal subgroups of the automorphism groups of some homogeneous structures
Creators: name: Li, Yibei
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: We will study the normal subgroup structures of the automorphism groups of some homogeneous structures in this thesis. In particular, we prove the simplicity of the automorphism groups of the following homogeneous structures: (i) all of the symmetric ‘semi-free’ homogeneous structures described by Cherlin in the appendix of [Che98], (ii) some of the asymmetric ‘semi-free’ homogeneous structures in the appendix of [Che98], (iii) the linear order expansions of non-trivial free homogeneous structures, and (iv) the universal n-linear order for n ≥ 2. The methods used generalise techniques developed in a sequence of papers by Macpherson and Tent [MT11] and Tent and Ziegler [TZ13a], [TZ13b]. A key notion in these methods is that of a stationary independence relation on finite substructures of a homogeneous structure M defined in [TZ13a]. This generalised the idea of substructures of M being freely amalgamated over their intersection if M is free, used in [MT11]. A stationary independence relation is symmetric. We can apply Tent and Ziegler’s method in [TZ13a] directly to the symmetric semi-free homogeneous structures in (i). But we cannot do so to the structures in (ii)-(iv) as they are asymmetric. One of the main contributions of our work is to drop the symmetry requirement, giving us the notion of a stationary weak independence relation. We then show how this can be used to prove the simplicity of the automorphism groups of the structures in (ii)-(iv) following a similar method of [MT11] and [TZ13a].

description: Unsupervised image-to-image translation methods learn to map images in a given class to an analogous image in a different class, drawing on unstructured (non-registered) datasets of images. While remarkably successful, current methods require access to many images in both source and destination classes at training time. We argue this greatly limits their use. Drawing inspiration from the human capability of picking up the essence of a novel object from a small number of examples and generalizing from there, we seek a few-shot, unsupervised image-to-image translation algorithm that works on previously unseen target classes that are specified, at test time, only by a few example images. Our model achieves this few-shot generation capability by coupling an adversarial training scheme with a novel network design. Through extensive experimental validation and comparisons to several baseline methods on benchmark datasets, we verify the effectiveness of the proposed framework. Our implementation and datasets are available at https://github.com/NVlabs/FUNIT .

description: Modern Greek studies as an independent research domain and academic discipline are relatively new. However, important centers of Modern Greek linguistics and philology can be found not only in Greece or in Cyprus, but in other countries as well. Russia is no exception here. The oldest department of Modern Greek studies was founded in 1984 in Saint Petersburg (Leningrad) State University. The idea of the continuity of the Greek language, partly reflected in the title of our department (the Department of Byzantine and Modern Greek Studies), is very important to us, and it has become a starting point for our educational programs and research projects. Thus, our students always start from Ancient Greek and Ancient Greek literature, and only then proceed to Modern Greek and Byzantine studies that are obligatory for all our undergraduates. This ideology together with special educational methods is a key factor that contributes to our positive results in teaching Greek as a foreign language. In this paper we describe our teaching methods and give a brief overview of our research projects that refer to various domains, such as historical and applied linguistics, sociolinguistics, field research, textual and literary criticism, Byzantine studies and translations.

description: After presenting a brief outline of the history of modern Greek Studies in Spain, the paper focuses on the teaching of Modern Greek language and culture at the University of Granada, at undergraduate and postgraduate level. The full implementation of the Bologna protocol in 2010 resulted in a new landscape concerning Modern Greek studies in Granada as a teaching subject in tertiary education, as well as a research branch in the doctoral programme Lenguas, Textos y Contextos. The Centre of Byzantine, Modern Greek and Cypriot Studies, founded in 2000, also contributes significantly to the promotion of Modern Greek studies by providing educational facilities, implementing research projects, arranging lectures, hosting scientific meetings, developing rich publishing activity, organizing exhibitionsand concerts, etc. The University of Granada has thus become a benchmark as far as Modern Greek studies in the Spanish-speaking world are concerned, although rational policy-making is necessary for the sustainability of the subject, as for all “weak” languages in the European University education system.

Coding-theoretic approaches to distributed caching, storage and computing
Creators: name: Mital, Nitish
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: The next-generation communication networks aim to bring data storage and computation closer to the end users and Internet of things (IoT) endpoints by exploiting edge servers and/or memory available at edge devices. This greatly improves the efficiency and economics of network applications. Traditionally, coding techniques have been applied to communication problems with terrific gains in performance. In this thesis, we apply novel coding techniques to edge storage and computation problems, and show similar significant gains in terms of storage costs, communication costs, computation costs, and privacy. In the first part of the thesis, we study a wireless distributed network of small base stations (SBS) which serve cache-enabled users. We propose a novel scheme of coded caching in a multi-server system with a random connectivity pattern, and study the fundamental limits of the trade-off between the storage capacity at the servers, the cache capacity at the users, and the delivery latency. We then study the trade-off between the storage capacity and bandwidth requirement for the repair of failed storage nodes/SBSs in a distributed wireless content caching system. We derive the fundamental limits of this trade-off using techniques from information theory, and propose a storage and repair framework to achieve the optimal trade-off, while satisfying the practical constraints of low subpacketization, low overheads, and low computational complexity. We then address problems related to distributed edge computing systems. In particular, we address computational privacy problems, where a user offloads the computation of a function on a set of matrices to powerful distributed servers, while preserving the privacy of the data and the computation result from T colluding servers as well as the user, and also achieving significantly smaller communication costs than existing secure multiparty computation techniques.
Modern Greek studies at the University of Lund (full text in Greek)

Subjects: Modern Greek studies, University of Lund

description: Although ancient Greek has been a major subject at the University of Lund since its foundation, the teaching of Modern Greek began in 1957, under the influence of the increasing interest in Modern Greek literature and the needs of Swedish archaeologists working in Greece. The Department of Modern Greek Studies at the University of Lund, now independent from the Department of Ancient Greek, has constituted one of the 35 Departments of the Centre for Languages and Literature since 2006 and it provides teaching, at both undergraduate and post-graduate level, research and translation of Greek authors. Even though funding from the Swedish government guarantees the existence of Modern Greek studies at the University of Lund, the support from the Greek State and Greek Institutions is considered essential for the future of Departments of Modern Greek Studies in European Universities in general.

description: In the course of its operation, the Volcano Ranch array collected data on the lateral distribution of showers produced by cosmic rays at energies above $10^{17}$ {\rm eV}. From these data very precise measurements of the steepness of the lateral distribution function, characterized by the $η$ parameter, were made. The current availability of sophisticated hadronic interaction models has prompted a reinterpretation of the measurements. We use the interaction models {\sc qgsjet} and {\sc sibyll} in the {\sc aires} Monte Carlo code to generate showers together with {\sc geant4} to simulate the response of the detectors to ground particles. As part of an effort to estimate the primary mass composition of cosmic rays at this energy range, we present the results of our preliminary analysis of the distribution of $η$.

title: Water-use efficiency, nitrogen availability and tree growth of boreal forest ecosystem in northern China in response to climate change and major wildfires

Subjects: subject: water-use efficiency
subject: nitrogen availability
subject: boreal forest ecosystem
subject: China

description: Climate change has become a catastrophic event that has altered Earth's ecosystems. Global warming and increasing atmospheric greenhouse gases (GHGs), such as CO2 and methane, have caused a drier climate, thereby affecting the water availability and its impacts on carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles within terrestrial ecosystems. Wildfires also play an important role in C and N cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Extreme wildfires are known to increase both CO2 and N emissions into the atmosphere and can alter C and N cycling processes. The objectives of this study were to quantify the effects of climate change on long-term tree water-use efficiency, N availability and growth in boreal forest ecosystems of northern China, and to evaluate the signatures and intensities of wildfires and climate extremes (such as drought and flooding) by using 15N natural abundance in tree rings in the context of climate change. Tree rings were extracted from 4 Larix gmelinii sample trees and 4 Pinus sylvestris sample trees, located in a boreal plantation forest of Mohe City, Heilongjiang Province, China. [...]

description: The Greek Language Section of the Moscow State University of International Relations (MGIMO) was established in 1960. The famous Hellenist Marina Ritova was the founder of the whole tradition of teaching the Greek language not only in MGIMO and in Moscow but also throughout the country - then the Soviet Union (with its republics). The student and later colleague of Ms. Ritova, renowned Hellenist, translator and interpreter, Irina Tolstikova was the head of the Greek Language Section for many years and now leads the Greek Language Club of MGIMO. Today, two lecturers, graduates of professors Ritova and Tolstikova, teach Greek at MGIMO: Anna Toropova - Head of the Section, Irina Smirnova and the professor seconded from the Greek Ministry of Education, Dionysios Maroulis. more than 40 students from various Bachelor and Master Programs learn Greek language at MGIMO as a compulsory foreign language as well as a language of choice. Recently, the number of students studying Greek has increased considerably. The mission of the Section is to train high-level experts with in-depth knowledge of Greek.

description: We study the CMB anisotropy induced by the non-linear perturbations in the massive neutrino density associated to the non-linear gravitational clustering proceses. Our results show that for the neutrino fraction in agreement with that indicated by the astroparticle and nuclear physics experiments and a cosmological accreting mass comparable with the mass of known clusters, the angular resolution and the sensitivity of the CMB anisotropy measurements from the Planck surveyor will allow the detection of the dynamical effects of the neutrino gravitational clustering.

description: How non-spherical particles orient as they settle in a flow has important practical implications in a number of scientific and engineering problems. In a quiescent fluid, a slowly settling particle orients so that it settles with its broad side first. This is an effect of the torque due to convective inertia of the fluid set in motion by the settling particle, which maximises the drag experienced by the particle. Turbulent flows tend to randomise the particle orientation. Recently the settling of non-spherical particles in turbulence was analysed neglecting the effect of convective fluid inertia, but taking into account the effect of the turbulent fluid-velocity gradients on the particle orientation. These studies reached the opposite conclusion, namely that a rod settles preferentially with its tip first, wheras a disk settles with its edge first, therefore minimizing the drag on the particle. Here, we consider both effects, the convective inertial torque as well as the torque due to fluctuating velocity gradients, and ask under which circumstances either one or the other dominate. To this end we estimate the ratio of the magnitudes of the two torques. Our estimates suggest that the fluid-inertia torque prevails in high-Reynolds number flows. In this case non-spherical particles are expected to settle with a maximal drag. But when the Reynolds number is small then the torque due to fluid-velocity gradients may dominate, causing the particle to settle with its broad side first.

description: We describe deep (40 orbits) HST/STIS observations of the BALQSO PG 0946+301 and make them available to the community. These observations are the major part of a multi-wavelength campaign on this object aimed at determining the ionization equilibrium and abundances (IEA) in broad absorption line (BAL) QSOs. We present simple template fits to the entire data set, which yield firm identifications for more than two dozen BALs from 18 ions and give lower limits for the ionic column densities. We find that the outflow's metalicity is consistent with being solar, while the abundance ratio of phosphorus to other metals is at least ten times solar. These findings are based on diagnostics that are not sensitive to saturation and partial covering effects in the BALs, which considerably weakened previous claims for enhanced metalicity. Ample evidence for these effects is seen in the spectrum. We also discuss several options for extracting tighter IEA constraints in future analyses, and present the significant temporal changes which are detected between these spectra and those taken by the HST/FOS in 1992.

description: The structure of the flow induced by the van der Waals destabilization of a non-wetting liquid film placed on a solid substrate is unraveled by means of theory and numerical simulations of the Stokes equations. Our analysis reveals that lubrication theory, which yields $h_{\text{min}} \propto τ^{1/5}$ where $h_{\text{min}}$ is the minimum film thickness and $τ$ is the time until breakup, cannot be used to describe the local flow close to rupture. Instead, the slender lubrication solution is shown to experience a crossover to a universal self-similar solution of the Stokes equations that yields $h_{\text{min}} \propto τ^{1/3}$, with an opening angle of $37^{\circ}$ off the solid.

description: We report on an exploratory analysis of the forms of plagiarism observable in mathematical publications, which we identified by investigating editorial notes from zbMATH. While most cases we encountered were simple copies of earlier work, we also identified several forms of disguised plagiarism. We investigated 11 cases in detail and evaluate how current plagiarism detection systems perform in identifying these cases. Moreover, we describe the steps required to discover these and potentially undiscovered cases in the future.
Strong gravitational lensing by multiple galaxies

description: We discuss strong gravitational lensing by multiple objects along any line of sight. The probability for strong gravitational lensing by more than one lens is small, but a number of strong lens systems in which more than one separate lens contribute significantly to the lensing potential will be detected in the large sample of lens systems compiled with new instruments. Using multi-lens ray-tracing, we estimate the likelihood for gravitational lensing by two lenses at different redshifts and investigate typical image geometries and magnification cross sections. We find that, for a cosmology with Omega_M=0.3 and Omega_Lambda=0.7, about one in twenty lens systems consist of two lenses with merging caustics. Multiple lens systems differ from single lenses. They have a larger multiple imaging cross section and significantly differ in the image configuration. The external shear induced by a nearby galaxy, group or cluster can affect image positions even for more widely separated lens pairs. Both of these effects must be accounted for in lens modelling. We also show how the presence of aligned discs in the pair of lensing galaxies can lead to very large high-magnification cross sections. Multiple lens systems will be important in future, both for constraining lens models of individual systems and for statistical lensing.
