description: We consider a semilinear equation linked to the finite horizon consumption - investment problem under the stochastic factor framework and we prove it admits a classical solution and provide all obligatory estimates to successfully apply a verification reasoning. The paper covers the standard time additive utility, as well as the recursive utility framework. We extend existing results by considering more general factor dynamics including a non-trivial diffusion part and a stochastic correlation between assets and factors. In addition, this is the first paper which compromises many other optimization problems in finance, for example those related to the indifference pricing or the quadratic hedging problem. The extension of the result to the stochastic differential utility and robust portfolio optimization is provided as well. The essence of our paper lays in using improved stochastic methods to prove gradient estimates for suitable HJB equations with restricted control space.

Aeroelastic response of an airfoil to gusts: Prediction and control strategies from computed energy maps
Creators: name: Menon, Karthik

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A method to predict the aeroelastic pitch response of an airfoil to gusts is presented. The prediction is based on energy maps generated by high-fidelity fluid dynamic simulations of the airfoil with prescribed pitch oscillations. The energy maps quantify the exchange of energy between the pitching airfoil and the flow, and serve as manifolds over which the dynamical states of aeroelastic airfoil system grow, decay and attain stationary states. This method allows us to study the full nonlinear response of the system to large gusts, and predict the growth and saturation of aeroelastic pitch instabilities. We also show that the manifold topology in these maps can be used to make informed modifications to the system parameters in order to control the response to gusts.

description: Complex systems are a proving ground for fundamental interactions between components and their collective emergent phenomena. Through intricate design, integrated photonics offers intriguing nonlinear interactions that create new patterns of light. In particular, the canonical Kerr-nonlinear resonator becomes unstable with a sufficiently intense traveling-wave excitation, yielding instead a Turing pattern composed of a few interfering waves. These resonators also support the localized soliton pulse as a separate nonlinear stationary state. Kerr solitons are remarkably versatile for applications, but they cannot emerge from constant excitation. Here, we explore an edge-less photonic-crystal resonator (PhCR) that enables spontaneous formation of a soliton pulse in place of the Turing pattern. We design a PhCR in the regime of single-azimuthal-mode engineering to re-balance Kerr-nonlinear frequency shifts in favor of the soliton state, commensurate with how group-velocity dispersion balances nonlinearity. Our experiments establish PhCR solitons as mode-locked pulses by way of ultraprecise optical-frequency measurements, and we characterize their fundamental properties. Our work shows that sub-wavelength nanophotonic design expands the palette for nonlinear engineering of light.

description: The purpose of this research was to investigate the feasibility of using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA) as sensitive techniques for monitoring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) metabolites in human urine. The method was tested using synthesized PAH conjugates as positive markers. Results showed that a PAH conjugate, S-(9,10-dihydro-9-hydroxy-10-phenanthryl)N-acetyl cysteine (PHONAC), present in HPLC effluent could be detected by ELISA at picomole levels, well below the sensitivity of the HPLC UV detector. Analyses of urine from mice dosed with phenanthrene demonstrated that a substance detected by HPLC which was not detected in ELISA tests was the principal phenanthrene metabolite. This substance was not hydrolyzed by Beta-glucuronidase. PHONAC was detected by ELISA in mouse urine extracts subjected to HPLC. Human urine samples were obtained from smoking and nonsmoking volunteers. Human urine was assayed directly in an inhibition (competition) ELISA system using monoclonal antibodies specific for PAH oxide and thiol metabolites. Median antibody inhibition was not significantly different in the two groups. Elimination of data from subjects smoking less than one pack of cigarettes per day did not alter the results. A few urine samples from smokers exhibited higher inhibitory activity than any of the control samples. HPLC conditions for separation of mixed isomers of synthetic PAH K-region oxide NAC conjugates were explored. Phenanthrene, pyrene (PY), and benzo(c)phenanthrene (BCP) NAC isomers were separated on all columns using isocratic elution with combinations of 10mM tris pH 7 and MeOH. Benzanthracene (BA) NAC isomers were separated on C-8 and C-18 columns, but not on a Dupont phenyl column using similar isocratic conditions. Benzo(a)pyrene (BP) NAC isomers were only separated using the phenyl column. A mixture of all of the NACs was separable except that BA and BCP NACs eluted together on all columns under all conditions.

description: This article on light cone field theory reviews the basic concepts of the Poincare group in light cone quantum mechanics and light cone field theory. It discusses recent progress in light cone representations of the Bethe-Salpeter equation, with application to the pion form factor, and the quark Schwinger-Dyson equation. Applications are discussed for deeply virtual Compton scattering, particularly for skewed parton distributions of the pion, and rare B to lepton pair decays. Meson light cone wave functions and recent experimental studies of light cone wave functions are discussed. This review was motivated by the LANL Light Cone 2002 International Workshop.

description: The purpose of this research was threefold: (1) to investigate the effectiveness of computer software as a teaching tool in an introductory statistics course, (2) to investigate whether computer software would increase students' understanding of what simulations are and how they are used, and (3) to determine whether students would object to the extra computer time associated with the course work. This study used an experimental group and a control group. It was conducted at The American University in Washington D.C. Students in the experimental group used software especially designed for sue in basic statistics and the commercial package Mystat as adjunct computer tools in their statistics course. Students in the control group used the computer with the Mystat package only. Both groups had computer related home work assignments. The traditional methods of instruction were utilized during the regular classroom sessions. The results from test questions administered to the two groups were used to decide whether the use of software could make a difference. There was a significant difference (p $=$.002) between the mean scores of the two groups in favor of the experimental group. Questionnaires were administered to the two groups before and after the treatment period. Analysis of the results of these questionnaires showed no significant difference in knowledge of simulations between the groups. On questions measuring students' perception of the usefulness of simulations, the difference in rank sum between the two groups was significant (p $=$.092) at the.10 level in favor of the control group. On questions measuring student objections to extra computer time, the difference in rank sum between the two groups was significant (p $=$.041) at the.05 level with those in the control group objecting less. Student comments indicate that about half of the experimental group felt that the computer was helpful in the basic statistics course. Many objected to the extra computer time even while agreeing that it was helpful. The findings of this study indicate that computer software can be effective as a teaching tool in an introductory statistics course. Additionally, they indicate that the experimental group did not gain a greater knowledge of simulations and they did object to the extra time associated with the computer work.

description: The status of exotic baryons is analyzed in the limit of a large number of colors Nc. Several toy models reproducing the main features of the large-Nc QCD are studied in order to clarify the recent controversy concerning the consistency of various approaches to the 1/Nc-expansion for exotic baryons. The analysis reveals several difficulties of the rigid-rotator approximation including the problems of this approximation in the description of exotic baryons.

description: We study the influence of epitaxial strain on the electronic properties of InAs/GaSb composite quantum wells (CQWs), host structures for quantum spin Hall insulators, by transport measurements and eight-band $\mathbf{k\cdot p}$ calculations. Using different substrates and buffer layer structures for crystal growth, we prepare two types of samples with vastly different strain conditions. CQWs with a nearly strain-free GaSb layer exhibit a resistance peak at the charge neutrality point that reflects the opening of a topological gap in the band-inverted regime. In contrast, for CQWs with 0.50\% biaxial tensile strain in the GaSb layer, semimetallic behavior indicating a gap closure is found for the same degree of band inversion. Additionally, with the tensile strain, the boundary between the topological and nontopological regimes is located at a larger InAs thickness. Eight-band $\mathbf{k\cdot p}$ calculations reveal that tensile strain in GaSb not only shifts the phase boundary but also significantly modifies the band structure, which can result in the closure of an indirect gap and make the system semimetallic even in the topological regime. Our results thus provide a global picture of the topological-nontopological phase diagram as a function of layer thicknesses and strain.

A study of the relationship between extramarital involvement and marital satisfaction in older and younger women
Creators: name: Schneiderman, Elyse J.
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The purpose of this study was to determine: (1) the relationship between marital satisfaction and extramarital sexual involvement in a sample of middle class employed females, (2) the differences, if any, in level of marital satisfaction between younger women (20-34) and older women (35+) who have had extramarital sexual involvements, and (3) to draw implications from the findings to broaden knowledge for family therapists and other clinicians. The study sample consisted of 102 married or formerly married female volunteers who were full-time employees of a large national insurance company at four locations in a mid-Atlantic state. The hypotheses were: (1) there is a relationship between extramarital sexual involvement and marital satisfaction, (2) younger women (20-34) who have had extramarital involvements will demonstrate higher distress with the sexual aspects of their marriage than older women (35+) who have had extramarital involvements, and (3) older women who have had extramarital involvements will demonstrate higher distress with the emotional aspects of their marriage when compared with younger women who had extramarital involvement. Two instruments were used, The Marital Satisfaction Inventory (Snyder, 1981) and the Personal Data Form developed by the researcher. The hypotheses were tested by a t test using the.05 level of significance. The study determined that there is a relationship between low marital satisfaction and extramarital relationships. Hypothesis 2 and 3 were not supported. There were no significant differences between the two age groups of women. Three other findings emerged when the sexually involved group of women were compared with the not sexually involved group. Both groups reflected moderate distress with the sexual aspects of their marriages. A t test revealed a strong relationship between financial dissatisfaction and extramarital relationships. A chi square test produced evidence that women who were divorced were more likely to have had extramarital relationships while formerly married than women who are currently married. Women who become involved in extramarital relationships appear more dissatisfied with the emotional and financial aspects of the marital relationship with finances emerging as an important variable. Both groups of women, involved and not involved, appeared to be sexually dissatisfied with their marital relationship.

description: We theoretically study the non-linear response of interacting neutral bosonic gas in a synthetically driven one-dimensional optical lattice. In particular, we examine the bosonic analogue of electronic higher harmonic generation in a strong time-dependent synthetic vector potential manifesting itself as the synthetic electric field. We show that the vector potential can generate reasonably high harmonics in the insulating regime, while the superfluid regime exhibits only a few harmonics. In the insulating regime, the number of harmonics increases with the increase in the strength of the vector potential. This originates primarily due to the field-driven resonant and non-resonant excitations in the neutral Mott state and their recombination with the ground state. If the repulsive interaction between two atoms ($U$) is close to the strength of the gauge potential ($A_0$), the resonant quasiparticle-quasihole pairs on nearest-neighbor sites, namely dipole states are found to a play a dominant role in the generating higher harmonics. However, in the strong-field limit $A_0\gg U$, the nonresonant states where quasiparticle-quasihole pairs are not on nearest-neighbor sites give rise to higher harmonics.

description: We show that the decay of sinusoidal ripples on crystal surfaces, where mass transport is limited by the attachment and detachment of atoms at the step-edges, is remarkably different from the decay behavior that has been reported until now. Unlike the decreasing or at most constant rate of amplitude decay of sinusoidal profiles observed in earlier work, we find that the decay rate increases with decreasing amplitude in this kinetic regime. The rate of shape invariant amplitude relaxation is shown to be inversely proportional to both the square of the wavelength and the current amplitude. We have also carried out numerical simulations of the relaxation of realistic sputter ripples.

description: Noah Webster was America's premier educator during her first half-century. As a writer of textbooks, as a magazine and newspaper editor, and as a lexicographer, he sought to improve the intellectual and moral level of the new nation. In his early years, he was a disciple of a Common Sense philosophy that blended its insights with Christian belief. Webster felt that men could be reasoned into proper morality. In 1908, however, he underwent a Christian conversion that transformed his thinking about morality, government, education, and his lexicographical labors. This study offers a reevaluation of the life and thought of Noah Webster, especially in the twin concerns of the intellectual and moral improvement of individuals and the new American nation. It seeks to elucidate Webster's worldview and how it affected his thinking, writing, and proposed remedies for the moral ills and intellectual inconsistencies that he perceived in his country.

In his early years, he was a disciple of a Common Sense philosophy that blended its insights with Christian belief. Webster felt that men could be reasoned into proper morality. In 1908, however, he underwent a Christian conversion that transformed his thinking about morality, government, education, and his lexicographical labors. This study offers a reevaluation of the life and thought of Noah Webster, especially in the twin concerns of the intellectual and moral improvement of individuals and the new American nation. It seeks to elucidate Webster's worldview and how it affected his thinking, writing, and proposed remedies for the moral ills and intellectual inconsistencies that he perceived in his country.

The effects of income on choice in the delay-of-gratification procedure
Creators: name: Andrews, Lynnwood Byrd
Publisher: name: American University

description: In Experiment 1, thirty-two five and six-year-olds made three choices between a smaller immediate reward and a larger reward delayed 24 hours. The choices were a 1-inch pretzel versus a 2.5-inch pretzel (Low Income Level), a 2.5-inch versus a 6.5-inch pretzel (Moderate Income Level), and three versus seven 6.5-inch pretzels (High Income Level). Following choice, one of the three income levels was randomly selected, and the child consumed his/her selection in front of the experimenter, either immediately or after the delay, and returned any leftovers. Children who chose to delay at a low income level, switched to the immediate reward at a higher income level. However, the children who chose the immediate reward at a low income level did not stay with the immediate reward as income level rose. In Experiment 2, four nine and ten-year-olds varied the sizes of the rewards (chocolate chips, chiclets, sunflower seeds) at each income level during four sessions until a point of approximate indifference was achieved between the amount of the immediately available good and the amount accessible after a 24 hour delay. Only one choice was consumed and was determined by throwing dice. For all children greater amounts of the delayed reward were necessary to achieve indifference as income level rose. This result was replicated for three of the children using Tic-Tacs, and Starbursts. Experiment 3 replicated the procedures of Experiment 1 except that a prior requirement that leftovers be returned was eliminated. The subjects were the same four nine and ten-year-olds as in Experiment 2. Each child was tested on three occasions using a different reward type. With the exception of one reward type for one child, all subjects switched from the delayed to the immediate reward as income level rose. Choice in this delay-of-gratification procedure was more easily explained in terms of the microeconomic principles of discounting and marginal utility than in terms of Mischel's cognitive social learning theory.

description: We can construct passing networks when we regard a player as a node and a pass as a link in football games. Thus, we can analyze the networks by using tools developed in network science. Among various metrics characterizing a network, centrality metrics have often been used to identify key players in a passing network. However, a tolerance to players being marked or passes being blocked in a passing network, namely the robustness of the network, has been poorly understood so far. Because the robustness of a passing network can be connected to the increase of ball possession, it would be deeply related to the outcome of a game. Here, we developed position-dependent passing networks of 45 matches by 18 teams belonging to the Japan Professional Football League. Then, nodes or links were continuously removed from the passing networks by two removal methods so that we could evaluate the robustness of these networks against the removals. The results show that these passing networks commonly contain hubs (key players making passes). Then, we analyzed the most robust networks in detail and found that their full backs increase the robustness by often invoking a heavier emphasis on attack. Moreover, we showed that the robustness of the passing networks and the team performance have a positive correlation.

description: Proceeding within the framework of a linear mean-variance utility function, this paper develops a duality model of production that incorporates risk aversion and price uncertainty. In contrast to risk models based on an expected utility function, this model provides a practical alternative to standard duality models for econometric research.
Thermal and Magnetorotational Instability in the ISM: Two-Dimensional Numerical Simulations

description: The structure and dynamics of diffuse gas in the Milky Way and other disk galaxies may be strongly influenced by thermal and magnetorotational instabilities (TI and MRI) on scales of about 1-100 pc. We initiate a study of these processes, using two-dimensional numerical hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations with conditions appropriate for the atomic interstellar medium (ISM). We demonstrate, consistent with previous work, that nonlinear development of ``pure TI'' produces a network of filaments that condense into cold clouds at their intersections, yielding a distinct two-phase warm/cold medium within about 20 Myr. TI-driven turbulent motions of the clouds saturate at subsonic amplitudes for uniform initial P/k=2000 K cm^-3. MRI has previously been studied in near-uniform media; our simulations include both TI+MRI models, which begin from uniform-density conditions, and cloud+MRI models, which begin with a two-phase cloudy medium. Both the TI+MRI and cloud+MRI models show that MRI develops within a few galactic orbital times, just as for a uniform medium. The mean separation between clouds can affect which MRI mode dominates the evolution. Provided intercloud separations do not exceed half the MRI wavelength, we find the MRI growth rates are similar to those for the corresponding uniform medium. This opens the possibility, if low cloud volume filling factors increase MRI dissipation times compared to those in a uniform medium, that MRI-driven motions in the ISM could reach amplitudes comparable to observed HI turbulent linewidths.

description: Introduction 
Status epilepticus (SE), a condition characterized by abnormally prolonged seizures, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. It is a neurologic emergency that needs to be promptly recognized and treated. Refractory status epilepticus (RSE) is defined as "status epilepticus persisting despite administration of at least two appropriately selected and dosed parenteral medications including a benzodiazepine." Super refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is defined as "status epilepticus persisting at least 24 hours after onset of anesthesia, either without interruption despite appropriate treatment with anesthesia, recurring while on appropriate anesthetic treatment, or recurring after withdrawal of anesthesia and requiring anesthetic reintroduction." 
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) was initially proposed in psychiatry in the 1930s and is still in widespread use to treat refractory psychiatric disorders. ECT has medically documented safety and efficacy in this setting. Seizure reduction or control attributed to ECT in the setting of SRSE has been reported in several case reports and small case series. The mechanism by which ECT aborts SE is poorly understood. Better understanding of the impact of ECT for patients who develop SRSE on seizure burden and outcomes is still needed. 
Methods and Analysis
This scoping review protocol is based on guidelines from the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and follows guidelines from the Preferred Reporting Items Checklist for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) extension for Scoping Reviews checklist. Electronic databases (Medline [Ovid], The Cochrane Library [Wiley], Embase [Elsevier], Web of Science, and CINAHL [EBSCO]), will be searched to identify relevant papers, which will be independently appraised by two independent reviewers. Data relevant to patient population, clinical course, and outcomes will be collated in a prespecified proforma. 
Ethics and Dissemination 
Results will be disseminated through a peer-reviewed academic journal. The review itself will deal exclusively with secondary data and thus will not require ethical approval.
