description: Objective: To compare accuracy of detecting high-grade cervical lesions (squamous intraepithelial lesions or greater, HSIL+) by high-risk HPV messenger RNA (hrHPV-RNA) testing between physician- and self-collected specimens, and by conventional cytology. Methods: The present prospective longitudinal study included data collected among female sex workers (FSWs) in Nairobi, Kenya, between December 2, 2009, and February 15, 2013. Participants self-collected cervico-vaginal specimens for hrHPV-RNA testing, and a physician collected cervical specimens for hrHPV-RNA testing and conventional cytology. hrHPV-RNA testing was conducted every 3 months, and conventional cytology every 6 months. Results: Overall, 350 FSWs aged 18–50 years participated. hrHPV-RNA prevalence decreased slightly from 29.9% (103/344) at baseline to 24.3% (53/218) at 24 months for physician-collected, and 28.5% (98/344) to 24.3% (53/218) for self-collected specimens. Agreement between the sampling methods appeared to increase over time (baseline κ 0.55, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.45–0.65; 24 months κ 0.83, 95% CI 0.74–0.91). Among 21 patients with HSIL+ over 24 months, 18 (86%) and 17 (81%) had hrHPV-RNA-positive results at baseline in physician- and self-collected specimens, respectively; and 20 (95%) had baseline hrHPV-RNA-positive results or cytology anomalies. Conclusion: Overall agreement between physician- and self-collected hrHPV-RNA results was moderate and appeared to increase over time. Baseline physician- and self-collected hrHPV-RNA tests were similarly strong indicators of cumulative HSIL+ over 24 months.

description: We compute explicitly, and without any extra regularity assumptions, the large time limit of the fibrewise heat operator for Bismut-Lott type superconnections in the L^2-setting. This is motivated by index theory on certain non-compact spaces (families of manifolds with cocompact group action) where the convergence of the heat operator at large time implies refined L^2-index formulas. As applications, we prove a local L^2-index theorem for families of signature operators and an L^2-Bismut-Lott theorem, expressing the Becker-Gottlieb transfer of flat bundles in terms of Kamber-Tandeur classes. With slightly stronger regularity we obtain the respective refined versions: we construct L^2-eta forms and L^2-torsion forms as transgression forms.

description: The chemical bonding in an epitaxial ZrB2 film is investigated by Zr K-edge (1s) X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopies and compared to the ZrB2 compound target from which the film was synthesized as well as a bulk α-Zr reference. Quantitative analysis of X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy spectra reveals at the surface: ~5% O in the epitaxial ZrB2 film, ~19% O in the ZrB2 compound target and ~22% O in the bulk α-Zr reference after completed sputter cleaning. For the ZrB2 compound target, X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows weak but visible -111, 111, and 220 peaks from monoclinic ZrO2 together with peaks from ZrB2 and where the intensity distribution for the ZrB2 peaks show a randomly oriented target material. For the bulk α-Zr reference no peaks from any crystalline oxide were visible in the diffractogram recorded from the 0001-oriented metal. The Zr K-edge absorption from the two ZrB2 samples demonstrate more pronounced oscillations for the epitaxial ZrB2 film than in the bulk ZrB2 attributed to the high atomic ordering within the columns of the film. The XANES exhibits no pre-peak due to lack of p-d hybridization in ZrB2, but with a chemical shift towards higher energy of 4 eV in the film and 6 eV for the bulk compared to α-Zr (17.993 keV) from the charge-transfer from Zr to B. The 2 eV larger shift in bulk ZrB2 material suggests higher oxygen content than in the epitaxial film, which is supported by XPS. In EXAFS, the modelled cell-edge in ZrB2 is slightly smaller in the thin film (a=3.165 Å, c=3.520 Å) in comparison to the bulk target material (a=3.175 Å, c=3.540 Å) while in hexagonal closest-packed metal (α-phase, a=3.254 Å, c=5.147 Å).

description: The role of host epigenetic mechanisms in the natural history of low-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN1) is not well characterized. We explored differential methylation of imprinted gene regulatory regions as predictors of the risk of CIN1 regression. A total of 164 patients with CIN1 were recruited from 10 Duke University clinics for the CIN Cohort Study. Participants had colposcopies at enrollment and up to five follow-up visits over 3 years. DNA was extracted from exfoliated cervical cells for methylation quantitation at CpG (cytosine-phosphate-guanine) sites and human papillomavirus (HPV) genotyping. Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated using Cox regression to quantify the effect of methylation on CIN1 regression over two consecutive visits, compared to non-regression (persistent CIN1; progression to CIN2+; or CIN1 regression at a single time-point), adjusting for age, race, high-risk HPV (hrHPV), parity, oral contraceptive and smoking status. Median participant age was 26.6 years (range: 21.0–64.4 years), 39% were African-American, and 11% were current smokers. Most participants were hrHPV-positive at enrollment (80.5%). Over one-third of cases regressed (n = 53, 35.1%). Median time-to-regression was 12.6 months (range: 4.5–24.0 months). Probability of CIN1 regression was negatively correlated with methylation at IGF2AS CpG 5 (HR = 0.41; 95% CI = 0.23–0.77) and PEG10 DMR (HR = 0.80; 95% CI = 0.65–0.98). Altered methylation of imprinted IGF2AS and PEG10 DMRs may play a role in the natural history of CIN1. If confirmed in larger studies, further research on imprinted gene DMR methylation is warranted to determine its efficacy as a biomarker for cervical cancer screening.

description: Folded Reed-Solomon codes are an explicit family of codes that achieve the optimal trade-off between rate and error-correction capability: specifically, for any ε >; 0, the author and Rudra (2006, 08) presented an nO(1/ε) time algorithm to list decode appropriate folded RS codes of rate R from a fraction 1-R-ε of errors. The algorithm is based on multivariate polynomial interpolation and root-finding over extension fields. It was noted by Vadhan that interpolating a linear polynomial suffices if one settles for a smaller decoding radius (but still enough for a statement of the above form). Here we give a simple linear-algebra based analysis of this variant that eliminates the need for the computationally expensive rootfinding step over extension fields (and indeed any mention of extension fields). The entire list decoding algorithm is linearalgebraic, solving one linear system for the interpolation step, and another linear system to find a small subspace of candidate solutions. Except for the step of pruning this subspace, the algorithm can be implemented to run in quadratic time. The theoretical drawback of folded RS codes are that both the decoding complexity and proven worst-case list-size bound are nΩ(1/ε). By combining the above idea with a pseudorandom subset of all polynomials as messages, we get a Monte Carlo construction achieving a list size bound of O(1/ε2) which is quite close to the existential O(1/ε) bound (however, the decoding complexity remains nΩ(1/ε)). Our work highlights that constructing an explicit subspaceevasive subset that has small intersection with low-dimensional subspaces - an interesting problem in pseudorandomness in its own right - could lead to explicit codes with better listdecoding guarantees.

description: The properties of the massive neutron star PSR J0348+0432 is calculated in the framework of the relativistic mean field theory by choosing the suitable hyperon coupling constants. It is found that the central energy density $ε_{c}$ and the central pressure $p_{c}$ of the massive neutron star PSR J0348+0432 respectively are 1.5 times larger and 3.6 times larger than those of the canonical mass neutron star. It is also found that in the neutron star PSR J0348+0432 there are five kinds of baryons appearing: n, p, $Λ$, $Ξ^{-}$ and $Ξ^{0}$ but in the canonical mass neutron star there are only three kinds of particles appearing: n, p and $Λ$. In our models, the positive well depth $U_Σ^{(N)}$ will restrict the production of the hyperons $Σ^{-}$, $Σ^{0}$ and $Σ^{+}$ and therefore either in the neutron star PSR J0348+0432 or in the canonical mass neutron star the hyperons $Σ^{-}$, $Σ^{0}$ and $Σ^{+}$ all do not appear. In addition, our results also show that the radius $R$ of the massive neutron star PSR J0348+0432 is less than that of the canonical mass neutron star while the gravitational redshift of the former is larger than that of the latter.

description: We report the first direct detection with Spitzer of galaxy filaments. Using Spitzer and ancillary optical data, we have discovered two filamentary structures in the outskirts of the cluster Abell 1763. Both filaments point toward Abell 1770 which lies at the same redshift as Abell 1763 (z=0.23), at a projected distance of ~13 Mpc. The X-ray cluster emission is elongated along the same direction. Most of the far-infrared emission is powered by star formation. According to the optical spectra, only one of the cluster members is classified as an active galactic nucleus. Star formation is clearly enhanced in galaxies along the filaments: the fraction of starburst galaxies in the filaments is more than twice than that in other cluster regions. We speculate that these filaments are feeding the cluster Abell 1763 by the infall of galaxies and galaxy groups. Evidence for one of these groups is provided by the analysis of galaxy kinematics in the central cluster region.

description: Тридцатилетнюю войну можно понимать как место транснационального конфликта, в котором участвовали различные стороны и субъекты. Испанская линия Габсбургов была одним из этих участников, и она провела различные конфликты из-за своего всеобъемлющего интереса к власти. Кроме того, Тридцатилетняя война также упоминается в исследованиях как «Война перьев», в которой противоборствующие стороны занимались политическими, конфессиональными и социальными проблемами на медиальном уровне. Эта статья посвящена негативному изображению испанской монархии в ранний период Тридцатилетней войны. В нем рассматривается преемственность ранее существовавших анти-испанских стереотипов в рамках брошюры. Сначала дается введение в более широкий исторический контекст, роль испанской монархии в Тридцатилетней войне, среда листовки с ее характеристиками, а также объяснение и некоторые ранее существовавшие антииспанские стереотипы. На этом фоне анализируются две листовки 1621 года. Подход ограничен листовками немецкоязычного контекста и протестантским авторством. На первой листовке представлена ключевая фигура Тридцатилетней войны, военачальник на службе испанской монархии Амброзий Спинола. Вторая листовка показывает созвездие аллегорий животных. Наконец, можно наблюдать принятие уже существующих стереотипов, характерных для листовок. Эта статья хочет показать, как политический противник был ассимилирован со стереотипным распределением и был представлен читателям как враг и ответственный за страдания во время войны.

description: Objective: To determine the effectiveness of community health campaigns (CHCs) as a strategy for human papillomavirus (HPV)-based cervical cancer screening in rural western Kenya. Methods: Between January and November 2016, a cluster-randomized trial was carried out in 12 communities in western Kenya to investigate high-risk HPV testing offered via self-collection to women aged 25–65 years in CHCs versus government health facilities. Outcome measures were the total number of women accessing cervical cancer screening and the proportion of HPV-positive women accessing treatment. Results: In total, 4944 women underwent HPV-based cervical cancer screening in CHCs (n=2898) or health facilities (n=2046). Screening uptake as a proportion of total eligible women in the population was greater in communities assigned to CHCs (60.0% vs 37.0%, P<0.001). Rates of treatment acquisition were low in both arms (CHCs 39.2%; health facilities 31.5%; P=0.408). Discussion: Cervical cancer screening using HPV testing of self-collected samples reached a larger proportion of women when offered through periodic CHCs compared with health facilities. The community-based model is a promising strategy for cervical cancer prevention. Lessons learned from this trial can be used to identify ways of maximizing the impact of such strategies through greater community participation and improved linkage to treatment.

Unlike some other approaches in the literature, our method uses no approximations other than linear theory and is valid on large scales. We examine the behaviour of late-universe density perturbations for both the self-accelerating and normal branches of DGP cosmology. Our numerical results can form the basis of a detailed comparison between the DGP model and cosmological observations.

description: Introduction Multipurpose vaccines (MPVs) could be formulated to prevent multiple sexually transmitted infections simultaneously. Little is known about acceptability of MPVs among vaccine health care providers (HCPs) or mothers of adolescent girls. Methods 151 adolescent vaccine providers and 118 mothers of adolescent girls aged 9–14 were recruited from five geographically-diverse countries: Argentina, Malaysia, South Africa, South Korea, and Spain. We assessed providers’ preferences for single-purpose human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine versus MPVs (including HPV+herpes simplex virus (HSV)−2, HPV+HIV, or HPV+HSV-2+HIV) via quantitative surveys. Maternal MPV attitudes were assessed in four focus group discussions (FGDs) in each country. Results Most providers preferred MPVs over single-purpose HPV vaccination, with preference ranging from 61% in Malaysia to 96% in South Africa. HPV+HSV-2+HIV was the most preferred MPV formulation (56–82%). Overall, 53% of the mothers preferred MPVs over single-purpose HPV vaccines, with strongest support in South Africa (90%) and lowest support in South Korea (29%). Convenience and trust in the health care system were commonly-cited reasons for MPV acceptability. Safety and efficacy concerns were common barriers to accepting MPVs, though specific concerns differed by country. Across FGDs, additional safety and efficacy information on MPVs were requested, particularly from trusted sources like HCPs. Conclusions Though maternal acceptability of MPVs varied by country, MPV acceptability would be enhanced by having HCPs provide parents with additional MPV vaccine safety and efficacy information. While most providers preferred MPVs, future health behavior research should identify acceptability barriers, and targeted provider interventions should equip providers to improve vaccination discussions with parents.

description: Traditional neural network approaches for traffic flow forecasting are usually single task learning (STL) models, which do not take advantage of the information provided by related tasks. In contrast to STL, multitask learning (MTL) has the potential to improve generalization by transferring information in training signals of extra tasks. In this paper, MTL based neural networks are used for traffic flow forecasting. For neural network MTL, a backpropagation (BP) network is constructed by incorporating traffic flows at several contiguous time instants into an output layer. Nodes in the output layer can be seen as outputs of different but closely related STL tasks. Comprehensive experiments on urban vehicular traffic flow data and comparisons with STL show that MTL in BP neural networks is a promising and effective approach for traffic flow forecasting.

description: Bottom-up logic programming can be used to declaratively specify many algorithms in a succinct and natural way, and McAllester and Ganzinger have shown that it is possible to define a cost semantics that enables reasoning about the running time of algorithms written as inference rules. Previous work with the programming language Lollimon demonstrates the expressive power of logic programming with linear logic in describing algorithms that have imperative elements or that must repeatedly make mutually exclusive choices. In this paper, we identify a bottom-up logic programming language based on linear logic that is amenable to efficient execution and describe a novel cost semantics that can be used for complexity analysis of algorithms expressed in linear logic.

description: We propose a finite discretization for the black hole geometry and dynamics. We realize our proposal, in the case of extremal black holes, for which the radial and temporal near horizon geometry is known to be AdS$_2=SL(2,\mathbb{R})/SO(1,1,\mathbb{R})$. We implement its discretization by replacing the set of real numbers $\mathbb{R}$ with the set of integers modulo $N$, with AdS$_2$ going over to the finite geometry AdS$_2[N]=SL(2,\mathbb{Z}_N)/SO(1,1,\mathbb{Z}_N)$. We model the dynamics of the microscopic degrees of freedom by generalized Arnol'd cat maps, ${\sf A}\in SL(2,\mathbb{Z}_N)$, which are isometries of the geometry at both the classical and quantum levels. These exhibit well studied properties of strong arithmetic chaos, dynamical entropy, nonlocality and factorization in the cutoff discretization $N$, which are crucial for fast quantum information processing. We construct, finally, a new kind of unitary and holographic correspondence, for AdS$_2[N]$/CFT$_1[N]$, via coherent states of both the bulk and boundary geometries.

description: According to the classification using projective representations of the SO(3) group, there exist two topologically distinct gapped phases in spin-1 chains. The symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phase possesses half-integer projective representations of the SO(3) group, while the trivial phase possesses integer linear representations. In the present work, we implement non-Abelian symmetries in the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method, allowing us to keep track of (and also control) the virtual bond representations, and to readily distinguish the SPT phase from the trivial one by evaluating the multiplet entanglement spectrum. In particular, using the entropies $S^I$ ($S^H$) of integer (half-integer) representations, we can define an entanglement gap $G = S^I - S^H$, which equals 1 in the SPT phase, and $-1$ in the trivial phase. As application of our proposal, we study the spin-1 models on various 1D and quasi-1D lattices, including the bilinear-biquadratic model on the single chain, and the Heisenberg model on a two-leg ladder and a three-leg tube. Among others, we confirm the existence of an SPT phase in the spin-1 tube model, and reveal that the phase transition between the SPT and the trivial phase is a continuous one. The transition point is found to be critical, with conformal central charge $c=3$ determined by fits to the block entanglement entropy.

For that, we need functions to estimate the security of messages. Here, we give relaxed conditions on the functions and on the protocol and we prove that an increasing protocol is correct when analyzed with functions that meet these conditions.

description: We have exposed a dual-phase Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LAr-TPC) to a low energy pulsed narrowband neutron beam, produced at the Notre Dame Institute for Structure and Nuclear Astrophysics to study the scintillation light yield of recoiling nuclei in a LAr-TPC. A liquid scintillation counter was arranged to detect and identify neutrons scattered in the LAr-TPC target and to select the energy of the recoiling nuclei. We report the observation of a significant dependence on drift field of liquid argon scintillation from nuclear recoils of 11 keV. This observation is important because, to date, estimates of the sensitivity of noble liquid TPC dark matter searches are based on the assumption that electric field has only a small effect on the light yield from nuclear recoils.

description: Throughout the years, several typing disciplines for the π-calculus have been proposed. Arguably, the most widespread of these typing disciplines consists of session types. Session types describe the input/output behaviour of processes and traditionally provide strong guarantees about this behaviour (i.e. deadlock-freedom and fidelity). While these systems exploit a fundamental notion of linearity, the precise connection between linear logic and session types has not been well understood. This paper proposes a type system for the π-calculus that corresponds to a standard sequent calculus presentation of intuitionistic linear logic, interpreting linear propositions as session types and thus providing a purely logical account of all key features and properties of session types. We show the deep correspondence between linear logic and session types by exhibiting a tight operational correspondence between cut-elimination steps and process reductions. We also discuss an alternative presentation of linear session types based on classical linear logic, and compare our development with other more traditional session type systems.

description: Supernova iPTF14hls maintained a bright, variable luminosity for more than 600 days, while lines of hydrogen and iron in its spectrum had different speeds, but showed little evolution. Here several varieties of models are explored for iPTF14hls-like events. They are based upon circumstellar medium (CSM) interaction in an ordinary supernova, pulsational pair-instability supernovae (PPISN), and magnetar formation. Each is able to explain the enduring emission and brightness of iPTF14hls, but has shortcomings when confronted with other observed characteristics. The PPISN model can, in some cases, produce a presupernova transient like the one observed at the site of iPTF14hls in 1954. It also offers a clear path to providing the necessary half solar mass of material at $\sim 5 \times 10^{16}$ cm for CSM interaction to work, and can give an irregular light curve without invoking additional assumptions. It explains the 4000 km s$^{-1}$ seen in the iron lines, but without additional energy input, strains to explain the nearly constant 8000 km s$^{-1}$ velocity seen in H$_α$. Magnetar models can also explain many of the observed features, but give a smooth light curve and may require an evolving magnetic field strength. Their dynamics may be difficult to reconcile with the observation of slow-moving hydrogen at late times. The various models predict different spectral characteristics and a remnant that, today, could be a black hole, magnetar, or even a star. Further observations and calculations of radiation transport will narrow the range of possibilities.

description: Background: Anal cancer is a relatively common cancer among HIV-infected populations. There are limited data on the prevalence of anal high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection and anal dysplasia in HIV-infected women from resource-constrained settings. Methods: A cross-sectional study of HIV-infected women aged 25-65 years recruited from an HIV clinic in Johannesburg, South Africa. Cervical and anal swabs were taken for conventional cytology and HR-HPV testing. Women with abnormal anal cytology and 20% of women with negative cytology were seen for high-resolution anoscopy with biopsy of visible lesions. Results: Two hundred women were enrolled. Anal HR-HPV was found in 43%. The anal cytology results were negative in 51 (26%); 97 (49%) had low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL), 32 (16%) had atypical squamous cells of unknown significance, and 19 (9.5%) had high-grade SIL or atypical squamous cells suggestive of high-grade SIL. On high-resolution anoscopy, 71 (36%) had atypia or low-grade SIL on anal histology and 17 (8.5%) had high-grade SIL. Overall, 31 (17.5%) had high-grade SIL present on anal cytology or histology. Abnormal cervical cytology was found in 70% and cervical HR-HPV in 41%. Conclusions: We found a significant burden of anal HR-HPV infection, abnormal anal cytology, and high-grade SIL in our cohort. This is the first study of the prevalence of anal dysplasia in HIV-infected women from sub-Saharan Africa. Additional studies are needed to define the epidemiology of these conditions, as well as the incidence of anal cancer, in this population.

description: We develop a pre-unification algorithm in the style of Huet for the linear lambda-calculus lambda-> -o & T which includes intuitionistic functions (->), linear functions (-o), additive pairing (&), and additive unit (T). This procedure conveniently operates on an efficient representation of lambda-> -o & T, the spine calculus S-> -o & T for which we define the concept of weak-head normal form. We prove the soundness and completeness of our algorithm with respect to the proper notion of definitional equality for S-> -o & T, and illustrate the distinctive aspects of linear higher-order unification by means of examples. We also show that, surprisingly, a similar pre-unification algorithm does not exist for certain sublanguages. Applications lie in proof search, logic programming, and logical frameworks based on linear type theories.

description: For all $n\ge 9$, we show that the only triangle-free graphs on $n$ vertices maximizing the number $5$-cycles are balanced blow-ups of a 5-cycle. This completely resolves a conjecture by Erdős, and extends results by Grzesik and Hatami, Hladký, Král', Norin and Razborov, where they independently showed this same result for large $n$ and for all $n$ divisible by $5$.

description: A systematic review of the literature was conducted to determine the estimates of and definitions for human papillomavirus (HPV) persistence in women following treatment of cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN). A total of 45 studies presented data on post-treatment HPV persistence among 6,106 women. Most studies assessed HPV persistence after loop excision (42%), followed by conization (7%), cryotherapy (11%), laser treatment (4%), interferon-alpha, therapeutic vaccination, and photodynamic therapy (2% each) and mixed treatment (38%). Baseline HPV testing was conducted before or at treatment for most studies (96%). Follow-up HPV testing ranged from 1.5 to 80 months after baseline. Median HPV persistence tended to decrease with increasing follow-up time, declining from 27% at 3 months after treatment to 21% at 6 months, 15% at 12 months, and 10% at 24 months. Post-treatment HPV persistence estimates varied widely and were influenced by patient age, HPV-type, detection method, treatment method, and minimum HPV post-treatment testing interval. Loop excision and conization appeared to outperform cryotherapy procedures in terms of their ability to clear HPV infection. This systematic review provides evidence for the substantial heterogeneity in post-treatment HPV DNA testing practices and persistence estimates.

description: We study the Goos-Hanchen like shifts for Dirac fermions in graphene scattered by double barrier structures. After obtaining the solution for the energy spectrum, we use the boundary conditions to explicitly determine the Goos-Hanchen like shifts and the associated transmission probability. We analyze these two quantities at resonances by studying their {main} characteristics as a function of the energy and electrostatic potential parameters. To check the validity of our computations we recover previous results obtained for a single barrier under appropriate limits.

description: As China's population ages, the importance of determining prevalence of cervical disease and accurate cervical cancer screening strategies for postmenopausal women is increasing. Seventeen population-based studies were analyzed to determine prevalence of cervical neoplasia in postmenopausal women. All women underwent HPV DNA testing, visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) and cytology testing. Diagnostic values for primary and combinations screening methods included sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), referral rate and area under curve (AUC) were calculated using directed biopsy or four quadrants biopsy as reference standard. Premenopausal and postmenopausal women had equal HPV infection and cervical neoplasia rates (p > 0.05). HPV DNA testing CIN3+ sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, referral rate and AUC were 97.9% (95% CI: 90.2–99.9%), 84.2% (95% CI: 82.8–85.5%), 9.9% (95% CI: 7.4–12.8%), 100% (95% CI: 99.8–100%), 17.2% (95% CI: 15.9–18.7%), 0.911, respectively. VIA values were 41.7% (95% CI: 28.4–55.9%), 94.5% (95% CI: 93.6–95.3%), 11.8% (95% CI: 7.5–17.3%), 98.9% (95% CI: 98.5–99.3%), 6.2% (95% CI: 5.3–7.1%) and 0.681, respectively. Values for VIA with HPV triage were 39.6% (95% CI: 26.6–53.8%), 99.2% (95% CI: 98.8–99.5%), 45.2% (95% CI: 30.8–60.4%), 98.9% (95% CI: 98.5–99.3%), 1.5% (95% CI: 1.1–2.0%) and 0.694, respectively. VIA and HPV DNA co-test values were 100% (95% CI: 94.0–100%), 79.5% (95% CI: 78.0–81.0%), 8.0% (95% CI: 6.0–10.3%), 100% (95% CI: 99.9–100%), 21.9% (95% CI: 20.4–23.4%) and 0.898, respectively. VIA sensitivity decreases significantly in postmenopausal women compared to premenopausal performance. HPV DNA testing maintains performance between pre- and postmenopausal women and is the most accurate primary modality for screening postmenopausal populations in low resource areas of China.

description: Whether the massive neutron star PSR J0348+0432 can change into a hyperon star is studied in the framework of the relative mean field theory by choosing the suitable hyperon coupling constants. We find that whether the mesons $σ^{*}$ and $ϕ$ being considered or not, the neutron star PSR J0348+0432 all can change into a hyperon star and the hyperon star transition density are the same for the two cases. We also find that the canonical mass neutron star also can change into a hyperon star in a minor hyperon star transition density as the mesons $σ^{*}$ and $ϕ$ are not considered. Our results confirms some of recent conclusions.

New Large-Rank Nichols Algebras Over Nonabelian Groups With Commutator Subgroup Z_2

description: In this article, we explicitly construct new finite-dimensional, link-indecomposable Nichols algebras with Dynkin diagrams of type An,Cn,Dn,E6,E7,E8,F4 over any group G with commutator subgroup isomorphic to Z_2.The construction is generic in the sense that the type just depends on the rank and center of G, and thus positively answers for all groups of this class a question raised by Susan Montgomory in 1995 [Mont95][AS02]. Our construction uses the new notion of a covering Nichols algebra as a special case of a covering Hopf algebra [Len12] and produces non-faithful Nichols algebras. However, we give faithful examples of Doi twists for type A3,C3,D4,F4 over several nonabelian groups of order 16 and 32. These are hence the first known examples of faithful, finite-dimensional, link-indecomposable Nichols algebras of rank >2 over nonabelian groups.

description: We theoretically study high-order optomechanically-induced transparency (OMIT) process in a nonlinear Kerr resonator. A frequency shift induced by the Kerr effect, is identified for the optical cavity mode, which results in asymmetric OMIT windows of the signal and its higher-order sidebands. We also find that both the sideband amplitude and its associated group delay sensitively depend on the strength of the Kerr nonlinearity. This indicates the possibility to enhance or steer the performance of OMIT devices with various nonlinear optical cavities.

description: We study the functors $\D_{\B_\ast}(V)$, where $\B_\ast$ is one of Fontaine's period rings and $V$ is a family of Galois representations with coefficients in an affinoid algebra $A$. We show that $\D_{\HT}(V)=\oplus_{i\in\Z}(\D_{\Sen}(V)\cdot t^i)^{Γ_K}$, $\D_{\dR}(V)=\D_{\dif}(V)^{Γ_K}$, and $\D_{\cris}(V)=\D_{\rig}(V)[1/t]^{Γ_K}$, generalizing results of Sen, Fontaine, and Berger. The modules $\D_{\HT}(V)$ and $\D_{\dR}(V)$ are coherent sheaves on $\Sp(A)$, and $\Sp(A)$ is stratified by the ranks of submodules $\D_{\HT}^{[a,b]}(V)$ and $\D_{\dR}^{[a,b]}(V)$ of "periods with Hodge-Tate weights in the interval $[a,b]$". Finally, we construct functorial $\B_\ast$-admissible loci in $\Sp(A)$, generalizing a result of Berger-Colmez to the case where $A$ is not necessarily reduced.
