description: We find a puzzling correlation in the data on domestic violence and children’s outcomes in India. Using the 2005–2006 National Family and Health Survey, we see that girls in families experiencing spousal violence are less worse off than boys when only fathers report a son preference while the gender bias reverses when only mothers report having a son preference. To shed light on the puzzle in the data, we present a non-cooperative theoretical framework based in economic theories of domestic violence, whereby differing parental son preference and bargaining over investments in girl and boy children potentially explains the observed relationship.

description: Having a bank account is widely regarded as the first step toward financial inclusion of the poor. Funds deposited in a bank account are also observed to lead to higher savings. Exploiting special features of the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS) of India, our estimates indicate that households that receive NREGS wages through a bank do not appear to spend more on education than other comparable households that receive cash payment. The district level intention to treat specification produces similar results. The findings suggest that the rural poor face constraints in accessing their bank accounts due to financial illiteracy and other problems.

description: Collective operations are common features of parallel programming models that are frequently used in High-Performance (HPC) and machine/ deep learning (ML/ DL) applications. In strong scaling scenarios, collective operations can negatively impact the overall application performance: with the increase in core count, the load per rank decreases, while the time spent in collective operations increases logarithmically. In this article, we propose a design for eventually consistent collectives suitable for ML/ DL computations by reducing communication in Broadcast and Reduce, as well as by exploring the Stale Synchronous Parallel (SSP) synchronization model for the Allreduce collective. Moreover, we also enrich the GASPI ecosystem with frequently used classic/ consistent collective operations -- such as Allreduce for large messages and AlltoAll used in an HPC code. Our implementations show promising preliminary results with significant improvements, especially for Allreduce and AlltoAll, compared to the vendor-provided MPI alternatives.

description: Gravitational wave (GW) standard siren observations provide a rather useful tool to explore the evolution of the Universe. In this work, we wish to investigate whether dark sirens with neutron star (NS) deformation from third-generation GW detectors could help probe the interaction between dark energy and dark matter. We simulate the GW dark sirens of four detection strategies based on 3 yr observation and consider four phenomenological interacting dark energy (IDE) models to perform cosmological analysis. We find that GW dark sirens could provide tight constraints on $Ω_{\rm m}$ and $H_0$ in the four IDE models, but do not perform well in constraining the dimensionless coupling parameter $β$ in models of the interaction proportional to the energy density of cold dark matter. Nevertheless, the parameter degeneracy orientations of cosmic microwave background (CMB) and GW are almost orthogonal, and thus, the combination of them could effectively break cosmological parameter degeneracies, with the constraint errors of $β$ being $0.00068-0.018$. In addition, we choose three typical equations of state (EoSs) of an NS, i.e., SLy, MPA1, and MS1, to investigate the effect of an NS's EoS in cosmological analysis. The stiffer EoS could give tighter constraints than the softer EoS. Nonetheless, the combination of CMB and GW dark sirens (using different EoSs of an NS) shows basically the same constraint results of cosmological parameters. We conclude that the dark sirens from 3G GW detectors would play a crucial role in helping probe the interaction between dark energy and dark matter, and the CMB+GW results are basically not affected by the EoS of an NS.

A Formally and Algorithmically Efficient LULC change Model-Building Environment

description: The use of spatially explicit land use and land cover (LULC) change models is widespread in environmental sciences and of interest in public decision-help. However, it appears that these models suffer from significant biases and shortcomings, the sources of which can be mathematical, conceptual or algorithmic. We formalize a modeling environment that distinguishes a calibration-estimation module and an allocation module. We propose an accurate calibration-estimation method based on kernel density estimation and detail an unbiased allocation algorithm. Moreover, a method of evaluation of LULC change models is presented and allows us to compare them on various fronts (accuracy, biases, computational efficiency). A case study based on a real land use map but with known (enforced) transition probabilities is used. It appears that the estimation error of the methods we propose is substantially improved over the best existing software. Moreover, these methods require the specification of very few parameters by the user, and are numerically efficient. This article presents an overview of our LULC change modeling framework; its various formal and algorithmic constituents will be detailed in forthcoming papers.

description: We develop an efficient algorithm to implement the recently introduced binary tree state (BTS) ansatz on a classical computer. BTS allows a simple approximation to permanents arising from the computationally intractable antisymmetric product of interacting geminals and respects size-consistency. We show how to compute BTS overlap and reduced density matrices efficiently. We also explore two routes for developing correlated BTS approaches: Jastrow coupled cluster on BTS and linear combinations of BT states. The resulting methods show great promise in benchmark applications to the reduced Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer Hamiltonian and the one-dimensional XXZ Heisenberg Hamiltonian.

description: Background: Most preterm infants born at 29-32 weeks gestation now avoid intubation in early life, and thus lack the usual conduit through which exogenous surfactant is given if needed. Objective: The aim of this work was to examine whether a technique of minimally invasive surfactant therapy used selectively at 29-32 weeks gestation would improve outcomes. Methods: We studied the impact of selective administration of surfactant (poractant alfa 100-200 mg/kg) by thin catheter in infants with respiratory distress syndrome on continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). The threshold for consideration of treatment was CPAP ≥7 cm H2O and FiO2 ≥0.35 prior to 24 h of life. In-hospital outcomes were compared before and after introducing minimally invasive surfactant therapy (epochs 1 and 2, respectively). Results: During epoch 2, of 266 infants commencing CPAP, 51 (19%) reached the treatment threshold. Thirty-seven infants received surfactant via thin catheter, and CPAP failure was avoided in 34 of these (92%). For the overall cohort of infants at 29-32 weeks gestation, after the introduction of minimally invasive surfactant therapy, there were reductions in CPAP failure (epoch 1: 14%, epoch 2: 7.2%) and average days of intubation, with equivalent surfactant use and days of respiratory support (intubation + CPAP). Pneumothorax was substantially reduced (from 8.0 to 2.4%). These findings were mirrored within the subgroups reaching the severity threshold in each epoch. The incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia was low in both epochs. Conclusions: Selective use of minimally invasive surfactant therapy at 29-32 weeks gestation permits a primary CPAP strategy to be pursued with a high rate of success, and a low risk of pneumothorax.

description: This compendium review focuses on the spatial distribution of sensitivity to localized absorption changes in optically diffuse media, particularly for measurements relevant to near-infrared spectroscopy. The three temporal domains, continuous-wave, frequency-domain, and time-domain, each obtain different optical data-types whose changes may be related to effective homogeneous changes in the absorption coefficient. Sensitivity is the relationship between a localized perturbation and the recovered effective homogeneous absorption change. Therefore, spatial sensitivity maps representing the perturbation location can be generated for the numerous optical data-types in the three temporal domains. The review first presents a history of the past 30 years of work investigating this sensitivity in optically diffuse media. These works are experimental and theoretical, presenting 1-, 2-, and 3-dimensional sensitivity maps for different near-infrared spectroscopy methods, domains, and data-types. Following this history, we present a compendium of sensitivity maps organized by temporal domain and then data-type. This compendium provides a valuable tool to compare the spatial sensitivity of various measurement methods and parameters in one document. Methods for one to generate these maps are provided in the appendix, including code. This historical review and comprehensive sensitivity map compendium provides a single source researchers may use to visualize, investigate, compare, and generate sensitivity to localized absorption change maps.

description: Magnetic impurities placed in the superconductor can lead to emergence of the Yu-Shiba-Rusinov bound states. Coupling between the impurity and the substrate depends on density of states (DOS) at the Fermi level and can be tuned by DOS singularities. In this paper, we study the role of DOS singularities using the real space Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations for chosen lattice models. To uncover the role of these singularities (Dirac point, van Hove singularity, or the flat band), we study honeycomb, kagome, and Lieb lattices. We show that the properties of the Shiba state strongly depends on the type of lattice. Nevertheless some behaviors are generic, e.g. dependence of the critical magnetic coupling on the DOS at the Fermi level. However, the Shiba states realized in the Lieb lattice exhibit extraordinary properties, which can be explained by the presence of a few nonequivalent sublattices. Depending on the location of the magnetic impurity in the chosen sublattice, the value of critical magnetic coupling $J_\text{c}$ can be reduced or enhanced when the flat band is located at the Fermi level. In this context, we also present differences in the local DOS and coherence lengths for different sublattices in the Lieb lattice.

description: The review is devoted to analysis of mathematical models used for describing epidemic processes. A main focus is done on the models that are based on partial differential equations (PDEs), especially those that were developed and used for the COVID-19 pandemic modelling. Our attention is paid preferable to the studies in which not only results of numerical simulations are presented but analytical results as well. In particular, travelling fronts (waves), exact solutions, estimation of key epidemic parameters of the epidemic models with governing PDEs (typically reaction-diffusion equations) are discussed. The review may serve as a valuable source for researchers and practitioners in the field of mathematical modelling in epidemiology.

description: We investigate the scattering processes of two photons in a one-dimensional waveguide coupled to two giant atoms. By adjusting the accumulated phase shifts between the coupling points, we are able to effectively manipulate the characteristics of these scattering photons. Utilizing the Lippmann-Schwinger formalism, we derive analytical expressions for the wave functions describing two-photon interaction in separate, braided, and nested configurations. Based on these wave functions, we also obtain analytical expressions for the incoherent power spectra and second-order correlation functions. In contrast to small atoms, the incoherent spectrum, which is defined by the correlation of the bound state, can exhibit more tunability due to the phase shifts. Additionally, the second-order correlation functions in the transmission and reflection fields could be tuned to exhibit either bunching or antibunching upon resonant driving. These unique features offered by the giant atoms in waveguide QED could benefit the generation of nonclassical itinerant photons in quantum networks.

Subjects: subject: granular matter, microgravity, jamming transition, drop tower

description: Granular materials are ubiquitous in our everyday life. Yet, some behaviors of granular media continue to surprise us, and a theory predicting granular flows from first principles is still missing. When the granular materials are compressed or sheared, they can change from a flowing fluid-like state to a rigid solid-like state. This change is called the jamming transition. The previous research shows that the granular packing fraction at the jamming point is lower in microgravity than on Earth. This small change in jamming packing fraction could influence the handling of granular materials in microgravity. To investigate this question, we probed the jamming point in microgravity, provided by drop tower Bremen. Additional discrete element method simulations were also performed to complement the practical experiments. Our experiments showed that the average jamming packing fraction in microgravity is 0.0212 lower than on Earth. Simulation results showed that, for a system with 0 friction coefficient, the average jamming packing fraction in microgravity and Earth gravitational acceleration are 0.6032 and 0.6142. For a system with a 0.5 friction coefficient, the average jamming packing fraction in microgravity and Earth’s gravitational acceleration are 0.5336 and 0.5448.

description: MATLAB/Simulink is widely used for model-based design. Engineers create Simulink models and compile them to embedded code, often to control safety-critical cyber-physical systems in automotive, aerospace, and healthcare applications. Despite Simulink's importance, there are few large-scale empirical Simulink studies, perhaps because there is no large readily available corpus of third-party open-source Simulink models. To enable empirical Simulink studies, this paper introduces SLNET, the largest corpus of freely available third-party Simulink models. SLNET has several advantages over earlier collections. Specifically, SLNET is 8 times larger than the largest previous corpus of Simulink models, includes fine-grained metadata, is constructed automatically, is self-contained, and allows redistribution. SLNET is available under permissive open-source licenses and contains all of its collection and analysis tools.

Their structures were determined by means of comprehensive spectroscopic analysis. Lignans 2–6 were tested for their anti-proliferative activity on the cancer cell lines LS180, A549 and HeLa, and on a non-cancer cell line, ARPE-19. Only compounds 4 and 5 showed an interesting activity on HeLa cells.

description: The strongly attractive Fermi gas in the BCS-BEC crossover is efficiently described in terms of coupled fermions and fermion pairs, or molecules. We compute the spectral functions of both fermions and pairs in the normal state near the superfluid transition using a Keldysh formulation in real frequency. The mutual influence between fermions and pairs is captured by solving the self-consistent Luttinger-Ward equations: these include both the damping of fermions by scattering off dressed pairs, as well as the decay of pair states by dissociation into two dressed fermions. The pair spectra encode contact correlations between fermions and form the basis for computing dynamical response functions and transport properties.

description: Homophily describes a fundamental tie-formation mechanism in social networks in which connections between similar nodes occur at a higher rate than among dissimilar ones. In this article, we present an extension of the Weighted Social Network (WSN) model that, under an explicit homophily principle, quantifies the emergence of attribute-dependent properties of a social system. To test our model, we make use of empirical association data of a group of free-ranging spider monkeys in Yucatan, Mexico. Our homophilic WSN model reproduces many of the properties of the empirical association network with statistical significance, specifically, the average weight of sex-dependent interactions (female-female, female-male, male-male), the weight distribution function, as well as many weighted macro properties (node strength, weighted clustering, and weighted number of modules), even for different age group combinations (adults, subadults, and juveniles). Furthermore, by performing simulations with fitted parameters, we show that one of the main features of a spider monkey social system, namely, stronger male-male interactions over female-female or female-male ones, can be accounted for by an asymmetry in the node-type composition of a bipartisan network, independently of group size. The reinforcement of connections among members of minority groups could be a general structuring mechanism in homophilic social networks.

description: This dissertation thesis deals with public sector employment in Germany. Approximately five million employees in the public sector make the state the largest employer in Germany and an important player in the labor market. At the same time, the institutional framework and the industry structure differ between the public and the private sector, which results in a lively interest in the public sector on the part of (labor market) research, but also the general public. In addition to stereotypes and prejudices, there are also a large number of economic contributions on the public sector and its employees. Nevertheless, there are still some gaps in our knowledge about public sector employment in Germany. This dissertation contributes to closing these gaps. The four essays each analyze individual facets of public sector employment in Germany, thus adding new insights to the existing literature.
description: Die vorliegende Dissertation befasst sich mit der Beschäftigung im Öffentlichen Dienst in Deutschland. Rund fünf Millionen Beschäftigte im Öffentlichen Dienst machen den Staat zum größten Arbeitgeber in Deutschland und zu einem wichtigen Akteur auf dem Arbeitsmarkt. Dabei unterscheiden sich die institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen und die Branchenstruktur zwischen dem Öffentlichen und Privaten Sektor, was ein reges Interesse am Öffentlichen Dienst von Seiten der (Arbeitsmarkt-) Forschung, aber auch der breiten Öffentlichkeit zur Folge hat. Neben Stereotypen und Vorurteilen existiert auch eine Vielzahl an wissenschaftlichen Beiträgen zum Öffentlichen Dienst und seinen Beschäftigten. Dennoch bestehen weiterhin Wissenslücken in Bezug auf öffentliche Beschäftigung in Deutschland. Die vorliegende Doktorarbeit trägt dazu bei, diese Lücken zu schließen. Dabei analysieren die vier Aufsätze jeweils einzelne Facetten der Beschäftigung im Öffentlichen Sektor in Deutschland und ergänzen so die vorhandene Literatur um neue Erkenntnisse.
Introducing Novel Droplet Generators: Enhanced Mixing Efficiency and Reduced Droplet Size

description: Nowadays, droplet microfluidics has become widely utilized for high-throughput assays. Efficient mixing is crucial for initiating biochemical reactions in many applications. Rapid mixing during droplet formation eliminates the need for incorporating micromixers, which can complicate the chip design. Furthermore, immediate mixing of substances upon contact can significantly improve the consistency of chemical reactions and resulting products. This study introduces three innovative designs for droplet generators that achieve efficient mixing and produce small droplets. The T-cross and cross-T geometries combine cross and T junction mixing mechanisms, resulting in improved mixing efficiency. Numerical simulations were conducted to compare these novel geometries with traditional T and cross junctions in terms of mixing index, droplet diameter, and eccentricity. The cross-T geometry exhibited the highest mixing index and produced the smallest droplets, increasing the mixing index by 10% compared to the T junction. While the T junction has the best mixing efficiency among traditional droplet generators, it produces larger droplets, which can increase the risk of contamination due to contact with the microchannel walls. Therefore, the cross-T geometry is highly desirable in most applications due to its production of considerably smaller droplets. Other new geometries also demonstrated comparable mixing efficiency to the T junction. The cross junction exhibited the lowest mixing efficiency and produced larger droplets compared to the cross-T geometry. Thus, the novel geometries, particularly the cross-T geometry, are a favorable choice for applications where both high mixing efficiency and small droplet sizes are important.

description: NLP-based models have been increasingly incorporated to address SE problems. These models are either employed in the SE domain with little to no change, or they are greatly tailored to source code and its unique characteristics. Many of these approaches are considered to be outperforming or complementing existing solutions. However, an important question arises here: "Are these models evaluated fairly and consistently in the SE community?". To answer this question, we reviewed how NLP-based models for SE problems are being evaluated by researchers. The findings indicate that currently there is no consistent and widely-accepted protocol for the evaluation of these models. While different aspects of the same task are being assessed in different studies, metrics are defined based on custom choices, rather than a system, and finally, answers are collected and interpreted case by case. Consequently, there is a dire need to provide a methodological way of evaluating NLP-based models to have a consistent assessment and preserve the possibility of fair and efficient comparison.

description: The glycosylation of naturally occurring phenolic acids has a significant impact on their solubility, stability and physiochemical properties. D-Galactose residue was found to form a part of glycoconjugates in several tissues and involved in a variety of physiological process. To the best of our knowledge, we have noticed a little information about the glycosylation of the phenolic acids with galactose residue. In this work, we describe the glycosylation of methyl vanillate and methyl ferulate with peracetylated-β-D-galactopyranose in the presence of BF3·OEt2. The coupling reaction yielded efficiently and selectively only the acetylated β-D-galactopyranosides 3 and 6. Removal of the acetyl groups using sodium methoxide afforded the corresponding β-D-galactopyranosides 4 and 7 in good yields. Anticancer activity in vitro was evaluated against two human cancer cell lines (MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines and PC-3 prostate cancer cell lines). β-D-galactopyranosides 4 and 7 demonstrated improved cytotoxic activity compared to the parental esters.

description: Глобальным вызовом современности всему человечеству становится проблема природы человека, его ценностно-образующего начала, бытия человека, предметно-энергийного метода познания мира. Острая необходимость в исследовании ценностно-образующего основания человека и социальных отношений обусловлена вызовом, обращённым к современному российскому обществу и к российскому государству, который заключается в том, что нам приходится решать проблемы, связанные с обоснованием права различных социальных общностей следовать своим ценностям, с практикой насильственного распространения ценностей одной культуры на все остальные, с необходимостью предотвращения или разрешения конфликтов и установления согласия между странами и народами, следующими разным ценностям. Решение всех названных проблем невозможно без разработки методологических основ изучения ценностно-образующего основания, предметно-энергийного метода познания, концептуальных оснований исследования социальных отношений на основе гражданской идентичности россиян. Высокий уровень значимости проекта обусловлен общим признанием ценностно-образующего основания в качестве основного регулятива совершенствования человека и становления отношений между индивидами, социальными общностями, странами и недостаточной изученностью этого феномена на уровне философского познания.В результате проводимого исследования в рамках гранта ФПНИ «Предпосылки и начало цивилизационного прорыва» мы пришли к выводу, что научная новизна исследования заключается в обосновании того, что: 1) ценностно-образующее основание является формой существования энергийности индивидов, предметная определённость которой задаётся качествами переживаемого человеком культурно опосредованного отношения (целенаправленной деятельности); 2) традиционный знаниецентрированный метод познания необходимо требует предметно-энергийного метода познания бытия человека; 3) идентичность россиян в соответствии с предметно-энергийными уровнями бытия обеспечит единство и стабильность современного российского общества.

description: We find a puzzling correlation in the data on domestic violence and children’s outcomes in India. Using the 2005–2006 National Family and Health Survey, we see that girls in families experiencing spousal violence are less worse off than boys when only fathers report a son preference while the gender bias reverses when only mothers report having a son preference. To shed light on the puzzle in the data, we present a non-cooperative theoretical framework based in economic theories of domestic violence, whereby differing parental son preference and bargaining over investments in girl and boy children potentially explains the observed relationship.

description: Peter Backhaus (Waseda University) This paper examines the use of address terms in John Updike’s Rabbit tetralogy (Updike 1995). The first part of the analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the great variety of terms used to address the protagonist, Harry Angstrom, in the decades covered by the novels. The second part focuses on two important side characters, Reverend Eccles and Harry’s mother-in-law. It demonstrates how address term usage with these two characters reflects ongoing changes in their relationship with Harry. The main aim of the paper is to demonstrate the potential of fictional data for the study of address terms and, in return, to capture the manifold functions of address terms as a literary device in fiction.

description: Даётся анализ понятий «российская цивилизация», «цивилизационный код», «европоцентризм». Отмечается, что особыми формами российской цивилизации, отличающими её от других цивилизаций, в первую очередь от евро-атлантической, выступают государство, церковь, традиционная семья, общинность, соборность, симфония властей. Раскрывается сущность основных цивилизационных противоречий между евро-атлантической и российской цивилизациями; отмечается, что данные цивилизации стоят на разных основаниях, придерживаются разных базисных ценностей. Исследуется роль церкви в формировании российской цивилизационной идентичности.
Revisiting the Extreme Clustering of $z \approx 4$ Quasars with Large Volume Cosmological Simulations

description: Observations from wide-field quasar surveys indicate that the quasar auto-correlation length increases dramatically from $z\approx2.5$ to $z\approx4$. This large clustering amplitude at $z\approx4$ has proven hard to interpret theoretically, as it implies that quasars are hosted by the most massive dark matter halos residing in the most extreme environments at that redshift. In this work, we present a model that simultaneously reproduces both the observed quasar auto-correlation and quasar luminosity functions. The spatial distribution of halos and their relative abundance are obtained via a novel method that computes the halo mass and halo cross-correlation functions by combining multiple large-volume dark-matter-only cosmological simulations with different box sizes and resolutions. Armed with these halo properties, our model exploits the conditional luminosity function framework to describe the stochastic relationship between quasar luminosity, $L$, and halo mass, $M$. Assuming a simple power-law relation $L\propto M^γ$ with log-normal scatter, $σ$, we are able to reproduce observations at $z\sim 4$ and find that: (a) the quasar luminosity-halo mass relation is highly non-linear ($γ\gtrsim2$), with very little scatter ($σ\lesssim 0.3$ dex); (b) luminous quasars ($\log_{10} L/{\rm erg s}^{-1} \gtrsim 46.5-47$) are hosted by halos with mass $\log_{10} M/{\rm M}_\odot\gtrsim 13-13.5$; and (c) the implied duty cycle for quasar activity approaches unity ($\varepsilon_{\rm DC}\approx10-60\%$). We also consider observations at $z\approx2.5$ and find that the quasar luminosity-halo mass relation evolves significantly with cosmic time, implying a rapid change in quasar host halo masses and duty cycles, which in turn suggests concurrent evolution in black hole scaling relations and/or accretion efficiency.

description: In search for effective antidiabetic agents that simultaneously inhibit α-glucosidase and scavenge free radicals, Horsfieldia motleyi showed promising bioactivity according to the proposed criteria. Bioassay-guided isolation of pericarp extract yielded a new 4-arylflavan named myristinin G (6), whose gross structure and absolute configuration were verified by 2D NMR and electronic circular dichorism (ECD). Myristinin G (6) concomitantly inhibited α-glucosidases (IC50 107.0 and 126.9 μM) and free radicals (SC50 54.3 and 279.9 μM). Of interest, 6 inhibited sucrase through an uncompetitive manner, which is rare in nature.

description: Although planning scholars often argue that public participation improves implementation outcomes, this relationship is rarely empirically tested. This study investigates how public engagement, during planning and after plan adoption, impacts on the speed of local government sustainability plan implementation. It includes a correlation analysis of quantized in-depth interviews with sustainability planners in 36 American cities. The study finds that individual characteristics of public engagement, both during planning and after plan adoption, had statistically significant relationships to implementation speed, but in some cases this relationship was negative. The correlations imply that sustainability planners can make strategic choices to improve implementation speed through public participation in plan creation and after plan adoption. Alternatively, planners also make choices during participatory planning that slow implementation, a problematic outcome when the ultimate goal of a planning process is on-the-ground change.
