description: This three-year research project began in January 2014 and investigated whether, during the Victorian period, the professions formed a distinct self-sustaining social group with its own mores and values. The project looked at 16,000 individuals drawn from census data for Alnwick, Brighton, Bristol, Dundee, Greenock, Leeds, Merthyr Tydfil, Morpeth, and Winchester. The research project was funded by the UK Economic & Social Research Council and was based at the Universities of Oxford and Northumbria.
The Baum-Connes property for a quantum (semi-)direct product

description: The well known "associativity property" of the crossed product by a semi-direct product of discrete groups is generalized into the context of discrete \emph{quantum} groups. This decomposition allows to define an appropriate triangulated functor relating the Baum-Connes property for the quantum semi-direct product to the Baum-Connes property for the discrete quantum groups involved in the construction. The corresponding stability result for the Baum-Connes property generalizes a result of J. Chabert for a quantum semi-direct product under torsion-freeness assumption. The $K$-amenability connexion between the discrete quantum groups involved in the construction is investigated as well as the torsion phenomena. The analogous strategy can be applied for the dual of a quantum direct product. In this case, we obtain, in addition, a connection with the \emph{Künneth formula}, which is the quantum counterpart to a result of J. Chabert, S. Echterhoff and H. Oyono-Oyono. Again the $K$-amenability connexion between the discrete quantum groups involved in the construction is investigated as well as the torsion phenomena.

description: We consider the non-stationary Heun equation, also known as quantum Painlevé VI, which has appeared in different works on quantum integrable models and conformal field theory. We use a generalized kernel function identity to transform the problem to solve this equation into a differential-difference equation which, as we show, can be solved by efficient recursive algorithms. We thus obtain series representations of solutions which provide elliptic generalizations of the Jacobi polynomials. These series reproduce, in a limiting case, a perturbative solution of the Heun equation due to Takemura, but our method is different in that we expand in non-conventional basis functions that allow us to obtain explicit formulas to all orders; in particular, for special parameter values, our series reduce to a single term.

description: We report the serendipitous discovery of a quadruply lensed source at $z_{\rm s}=3.76$, HSC~J115252+004733, from the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Survey. The source is lensed by an early-type galaxy at $z_{\rm l}=0.466$ and a satellite galaxy. Here, we investigate the properties of the source by studying its size and luminosity from the imaging and the luminosity and velocity width of the Ly-$α$ line from the spectrum. Our analyses suggest that the source is most probably a low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (LLAGN) but the possibility of it being a compact bright galaxy (e.g., a Lyman-$α$ emitter or Lyman Break Galaxy) cannot be excluded. The brighter pair of lensed images appears point-like except in the HSC $i$-band (with a seeing $\sim0.5"$). The extended emission in the $i$-band image could be due to the host galaxy underneath the AGN, or alternatively, due to a highly compact lensed galaxy (without AGN) which appears point-like in all bands except in $i$-band. We also find that the flux ratio of the brighter pair of images is different in the Ks-band compared to optical wavelengths. Phenomena such as differential extinction and intrinsic variability cannot explain this chromatic variation. While microlensing from stars in the foreground galaxy is less likely to be the cause, it cannot be ruled out completely. If the galaxy hosts an AGN, then this represents the highest redshift quadruply imaged AGN known to date, enabling study of a distant LLAGN. Discovery of this unusually compact and faint source demonstrates the potential of the HSC survey.

description: This study utilises the ‘mixed methods approach’ to explore how Chinese universities have reformed human resource management (HRM) and how the reform has influenced the well-being of academics. The findings demonstrate that the current HRM policies and practices in Chinese universities are mixed combining modern HRM practices and traditional ‘iron rice bowl’ personnel management methods, and they reveal that the relationship between HRM practices and employee well-being is neither direct nor unconditional; a win-win scenario for both management and employee well-being is possible when organisations pursue HRM innovations. This study is significant to relevant theoretical and empirical research.
Feature Analysis for Classification of Physical Actions using surface EMG Data

description: Based on recent health statistics, there are several thousands of people with limb disability and gait disorders that require a medical assistance. A robot assisted rehabilitation therapy can help them recover and return to a normal life. In this scenario, a successful methodology is to use the EMG signal based information to control the support robotics. For this mechanism to function properly, the EMG signal from the muscles has to be sensed and then the biological motor intention has to be decoded and finally the resulting information has to be communicated to the controller of the robot. An accurate detection of the motor intention requires a pattern recognition based categorical identification. Hence in this paper, we propose an improved classification framework by identification of the relevant features that drive the pattern recognition algorithm. Major contributions include a set of modified spectral moment based features and another relevant inter-channel correlation feature that contribute to an improved classification performance. Next, we conducted a sensitivity analysis of the classification algorithm to different EMG channels. Finally, the classifier performance is compared to that of the other state-of the art algorithms

description: The thesis examines whether private securities class actions (PSCAs) can provide investor protection from poor stock market securities disclosure in Australia, defining and exploring each of these concepts. It analyses whether there are legal conceptual or practical obstacles to PSCAs and compares investor protection from poor securities disclosure through PSCAs with public enforcement of securities laws. In doing so it analyses empirical data from the 19 largest successful Australian PSCAs in respect of key attributes and concludes that, though the need for public enforcement remains, Australian PSCAs can provide a species of investor protection from poor securities disclosure.
Exploring Empresses in the Palace fan creations : a case study of China's fandom culture

Fan creations

description: This report examines Empresses in the Palace as a case study and uses the fandom culture and fans’ recreations of this TV Show to explore fandom culture in China. Since the emergence of mass consumer culture in the 20th century, there has been a growing interest among scholars in the various cultural phenomena that have arisen from fan groups and their consumption habits. Understanding fan culture is crucial for gaining a comprehensive understanding of contemporary culture. While Western scholars, including Stuart Hall, John Fiske, and Henry Jenkins, have conducted extensive research on fan culture, the study of fan culture in China remains inadequate. I argue that the contents and formats of Empresses in the Palace’s fans’ creations have gone through constant changes and these changes are closely related to social climate and technology development. Considering its scale and uniqueness, fans’ creations and fandom culture of Empresses in the Palace can serve as an important case study for China’s fandom culture research. By analyzing the different forms of fandom culture and the content of fans’ attention, I divide the fandom culture of Empresses in the Palace into three periods and examine the various fan culture phenomena triggered by each period, drawing from existing fandom culture theories in the West as well as the specific cultural context of China.

description: This qualitative study explores the work-nonwork challenges and spatio-temporal role boundaries of hypermobile management consultants working at a Big Four professional firm. It makes three central contributions. First, frequent business travel emerged as a “necessary evil” with adverse consequences at the individual and organisational level. Second, consultants’ spatio-temporal role boundaries were found to be unusually elusive. This contribution offers intellectual opportunities for theorising work and nonwork in novel ways; that is adopting a more fluid perspective on the role content of time and space. Finally, this study offers actionable recommendations which can help management consultancies to achieve a competitive advantage through the strategic management of labour hypermobility.

description: Counterfactual explanations are widely used to explain ML model predictions by providing alternative scenarios. However, choosing the most appropriate explanation method and one of generated counterfactuals is not an easy task. In this paper, we propose an approach that filters out a large set of counterfactuals generated by a set of diverse algorithms through a multi-criteria subset selection problem solved using the dominance relation. Experiments show that exploiting the dominance relation results in a concise set of counterfactual explanations.

description: The use of deceptive strategies is important for an agent that attempts not to reveal his intentions in an adversarial environment. We consider a setting in which a supervisor provides a reference policy and expects an agent to follow the reference policy and perform a task. The agent may instead follow a different, deceptive policy to achieve a different task. We model the environment and the behavior of the agent with a Markov decision process, represent the tasks of the agent and the supervisor with reachability specifications, and study the synthesis of optimal deceptive policies for such agents. We also study the synthesis of optimal reference policies that prevent deceptive strategies of the agent and achieve the supervisor's task with high probability. We show that the synthesis of optimal deceptive policies has a convex optimization problem formulation, while the synthesis of optimal reference policies requires solving a nonconvex optimization problem. We also show that the synthesis of optimal reference policies is NP-hard.

description: This thesis analyzes the scope of judicial discretion to recognize the equitable doctrine of unclean hands as a bar to actions seeking damages in America. It provides a historical, doctrinal, and theoretical account of the integration. It analyzes conflicting cases in the federal courts and the fifty states. It also places the issue of integration within the broader debate over law-equity fusion addressed in early American literature and emerging scholarship. By studying discretionary limits on legal remedies, this thesis adds an American perspective to the current and contentious conversation about fusion in other countries of the common law.

description: The study examined factors affecting Malaysian consumers’ Responsible Acquisition of Computer Behaviour (RACB) as such behaviour can reduce the environmental problems attributed to computer lifecycle. A model was developed based on Theory of Planned Behaviour and Value Belief Norm with a habit construct and tested using quantitative questionnaire survey method. The results revealed that self-interest factors (Subjective Norms and Intention) are more important in explaining RACB as compared to morality factor (Personal Norms). Additionally, age and income moderate some of the constructs’ relationships. The study developed a parsimonious RACB adoption model and provided recommendations to increase adoption of RACB.

description: The presented paper proposes a novel approach for detecting un-known polymorphic patterns in sequences composed of random symbols and of known polymorphic patterns. We propose to represent rules that drive pattern generation as regular expressions. To detect unknown patterns, we first incorporate knowledge on known rules into a Convolutional Autoen-coder (CAE), then we train the CAE with additional objective to prevent weights from learning the already known patterns. Analysis of training re-sults provides statistically significant information on presence or absence of polymorphic patterns that were not previously known.

description: This Masters Report analyzes the goals and objectives of the network of climate plans for the City of Miami. These plans are contextualized within the city’s current economic, political, and social reality. Current events including real estate development, city branding, economic growth, and gentrification are contrasted with the plan analysis to develop a broad understanding of the factors influencing commitments to climate resilience. Using a justice framework, the report takes these factors and evaluates the city’s capacity for equitable climate resilience. This method of analysis recognizes how culture, capital, and power influence commitments to equity and reflect capacity for climate justice.

description: Climate change is affecting weather through higher temperatures and increased precipitation. Specifically, “global annual averaged temperatures for 1986–2015 are likely much higher, and appear to have risen at a more rapid rate during the last 3 decades, than any similar period possibly over the past 2,000 years or longer” (Climate Impact Assessment for the City of Houston, p. 9, 2020). This, in turn, affects the severity of hurricanes which is illustrated by Hurricane Harvey in Houston and Hurricane Sandy in New York City. Some areas of Houston “received more than 40 inches of rain over a four-day period. The storm caused damages estimated around $126 billion, making it the costliest tropical cyclone worldwide” (Climate Impact Assessment for the City of Houston, p. 13 2020). For Hurricane Sandy, “The storm’s effects were extensive, leaving more than 8.5 million customers without power, causing widespread flooding throughout the region, and contributing to acute fuel shortages in parts of New York and New Jersey” (FEMA After Action Report, p. iii 2013). Hurricanes will continue to intensify faster and become stronger as climate change progresses. With more extreme weather events and precipitation, there are larger economic, environmental, and societal impacts. The economic impacts include property damage and rebuilding, increased cost of maintenance of infrastructure systems, increased emergency response cost, and business economic losses. Environmental impacts include vegetation damage, debris cleanup, and decreased groundwater and surface water quality. Finally, for societal impacts, extreme precipitation events leading to the evacuation of social services, increased waterborne diseases, and emergency stress in communities. It is important for communities and cities to be prepared by understanding their vulnerability to such events which includes exposure to events, sensitivity to events, and adaptive capacity to adjust to the event and its damage. Because of this, it is important to analyze the climate adaptive and resilience strategies used in the respective geographic locations to discern what should be used in future long-term disaster recovery plans as Hurricanes continue to be more destructive. This would include looking at green infrastructure and grid resilience strategies for making these areas more resilient as the next natural disaster is imminent.

description: Auto-centric infrastructure is not a sustainable path forward for mobility in the United States also continues to uphold institutional and historical marginalization against several vulnerable groups. Motor vehicle emissions contributes greatly to climate change and even with a hypothetical shift to electric vehicles, the production of such vehicles still takes an immense toll on the environment, presents increased risk for crashes, and negative implications for congestion and physical activity for community members. Mobility and accessibility are two distinct aspects of community experience that every community member has the right to. TDM and universal design are two approaches can create more accommodating transportation journeys in the public realm and on transit for specific protected groups and restore mobility and accessibility injustice for historically marginalized groups.

Riskier together? The effect of combined tax reporting on corporate risk-taking

Combined reporting

description: To constrain tax-motivated income shifting, many U.S. states have enacted combined tax reporting, which effectively requires affiliated corporations under common ownership to compute taxable income on a consolidated basis rather than a separate-entity basis. The rules have similarities to U.S. GAAP and federal income tax consolidated reporting rules. I find that after a state adopts combined reporting, affected firms report higher earnings volatility and R&D expenditures compared to control firms. The results are consistent with combined reporting increasing firm risk-taking by enhancing tax loss offset capabilities. The main effects are attenuated in patent-intensive income-shifting firms, consistent with combined reporting reducing the after-tax payoffs of producing intangible property. Collectively, the evidence provides nuance to recent literature suggesting anti-income shifting policies reduce risk-taking and innovation and is timely given increased combined reporting legislation by U.S. states and related international proposals.
Resilient Base Station Parameter Optimization amidst UE Parameter Anomalies: A Strategic Zeroing-Out Approach
Creators: name: Paindi Jayakumar, Sudharshan
Publisher: name: HAL
Year: 2024

description: Accurate prediction of optimized Base Station (BS) parameters from User Equipment (UE) features is essential for wireless communication systems. However, anomalies or missing data in UE parameters can hinder predictive model accuracy for optimizing BS parameters. To address this, our study introduces a Zeroing-Out Strategy tailored to UE parameters. This meticulous two-phase methodology involves initial anomaly detection to identify and remove unreliable or anomalous UE features, followed by a targeted training strategy. During training, individual UE parameters are deliberately withheld while predicting BS parameters, compelling the model to reconstruct missing UE data and optimize BS parameters using available information.This approach aims to enhance adaptability and resilience, enabling accurate predictions of optimized BS parameters even when certain UE features are absent due to anomalies or inconsistencies. Experimental validation in a simulated environment demonstrates a substantial decrease in RMSE values.For SINR∼166%, RMSE reduces from 10.83 to 3.55 post-anomaly elimination, signifying a significant enhancement in predictive accuracy. Similarly, at SINR∼125%, RMSE drops from 11.55 to 4.51, emphasizing improved accuracy even in higher noise scenarios. The presented approach stands as a promising solution to mitigate the impact of missing UE features due to anomalies, paving the way for more reliable and efficient parameter optimization in wireless communication systems.

description: Define $\|n\|$ to be the complexity of $n$, the smallest number of ones needed to write $n$ using an arbitrary combination of addition and multiplication. Define $n$ to be stable if for all $k\ge 0$, we have $\|3^k n\|=\|n\|+3k$. In [7], this author and Zelinsky showed that for any $n$, there exists some $K=K(n)$ such that $3^K n$ is stable; however, the proof there provided no upper bound on $K(n)$ or any way of computing it. In this paper, we describe an algorithm for computing $K(n)$, and thereby also show that the set of stable numbers is a computable set. The algorithm is based on considering the defect of a number, defined by $δ(n):=\|n\|-3\log_3 n$, building on the methods presented in [3]. As a side benefit, this algorithm also happens to allow fast evaluation of the complexities of powers of $2$; we use it to verify that $\|2^k 3^\ell\|=2k+3\ell$ for $k\le48$ and arbitrary $\ell$ (excluding the case $k=\ell=0$), providing more evidence for the conjecture that $\|2^k 3^\ell\|=2k+3\ell$ whenever $k$ and $\ell$ are not both zero. An implementation of these algorithms in Haskell is available.

description: This case study explores transformational change in the context of a large, multi-national corporation facing significant, external environmental threat. Adopting theoretical perspectives from both change management and complex adaptive systems theory, the study depicts conditions created by management that enabled successful transformational change. Findings revealed that a non-linear, emergent and co-created change process based primarily on complex adaptive systems theory, enabled the subject organisation to actively adapt to external challenges. Key management practices that assisted in providing appropriate conditions for transformation included open-mindedness, relinquishing control, organisational agility, valuing the commitment of employees to initiate and enact change, and knowledge sharing.

description: We perform SUSY localization for Coulomb branch operators of 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$ gauge theories in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with $Ω$-deformation. For the dressed monopole operators whose expectation values do not involve non-perturbative corrections, our computations reproduce the results of the so-called abelianization procedure. For the expectation values of other operators and the correlation functions of multiple operators in $U(N)$ gauge theories, we compute the non-perturbative corrections due to monopole bubbling using matrix models obtained by brane construction. We relate the results of localization to algebraic structures discussed in the mathematical literature, and also point out a similar relation for line operators in 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories. For $U(N)$ (quiver) gauge theories in 3d we demonstrate a direct correspondence between wall-crossing and the ordering of operators.

description: In this paper, we prove a Mergelyan type approximation theorem for immersed holomorphic Legendrian curves in an arbitrary complex contact manifold $(X,ξ)$. Explicitly, we show that if $S$ is a compact admissible set in a Riemann surface $M$ and $f:S\to X$ is a $ξ$-Legendrian immersion of class $\mathscr{C}^{r+2}(S,X)$ for some $r\ge 2$ which is holomorphic in the interior of $S$, then $f$ can be approximated in the $\mathscr{C}^r(S,X)$ topology by holomorphic Legendrian embeddings from open neighbourhoods of $S$ into $X$. This result has numerous applications, some of which are indicated in the paper. In particular, by using Bryant's correspondence for the Penrose twistor map $\mathbb{CP}^3\to S^4$ we show that a Mergelyan approximation theorem and the Calabi-Yau property hold for superminimal surfaces in the $4$-sphere $S^4$.

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This thesis investigates and provides empirical evidence on whether (1) more able managers are associated with lower cost of debt capital, (2) the association between more able managers and the cost of debt is affected by the degree of managerial discretion, and (3) the joint effect of managerial ability and discretion on the cost of debt is further conditioned by prior lending relationship. This thesis contributes to a better understanding of the role of managerial talent and discretion on the cost of debt capital, and also the role of prior lending relationship in such joint effect.

description: Thermal comfort is defined as the user's sensation of thermal well-being. This sensation can be modified by extreme environmental conditions changing the body temperature of the user. Different mechanisms, the thermoregulatory system itself or an external textile system, are required to allow the body to return to their state of well-being. A cooling vest is an example of a smart garment that helps to reduce the user’s body temperature in situations of heat stress. There are two different standards to evaluate the performance of this type of clothing: the ASTM F2371-16 standard that uses a thermal manikin and the ASTM F2300-10 standard that uses human subjects for the validation. There is a need for simple, objective and affordable tests to evaluate the thermal comfort associated with personal protective equipment use. The aim of this work is to develop a new testing method that combines a thermal manikin with a simulation software and allows to study physiological parameters of a human subject in the body of the thermal manikin.

description: The channel law for amplitude-modulated solitons transmitted through a nonlinear optical fibre with ideal distributed amplification and a receiver based on the nonlinear Fourier transform is a noncentral chi-distribution with $2n$ degrees of freedom, where $n=2$ and $n=3$ correspond to the single- and dual-polarisation cases, respectively. In this paper, we study capacity lower bounds of this channel under an average power constraint in bits per channel use. We develop an asymptotic semi-analytic approximation for a capacity lower bound for arbitrary $n$ and a Rayleigh input distribution. It is shown that this lower bound grows logarithmically with signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), independently of the value of $n$. Numerical results for other continuous input distributions are also provided. A half-Gaussian input distribution is shown to give larger rates than a Rayleigh input distribution for $n=1,2,3$. At an SNR of $25$ dB, the best lower bounds we developed are approximately $3.68$ bit per channel use. The practically relevant case of amplitude shift-keying (ASK) constellations is also numerically analysed. For the same SNR of $25$ dB, a $16$-ASK constellation yields a rate of approximately $3.45$ bit per channel use.

description: In the context of estimating stochastically ordered distribution functions, the pool-adjacent-violators algorithm (PAVA) can be modified such that the computation times are reduced substantially. This is achieved by studying the dependence of antitonic weighted least squares fits on the response vector to be approximated.

description: This work focuses on the development of a new class of high-order accurate methods for multirate time integration of systems of ordinary differential equations. Unlike other recent work in this area, the proposed methods support mixed implicit-explicit (IMEX) treatment of the slow time scale. In addition to allowing this slow time scale flexibility, the proposed methods utilize a so-called `infinitesimal' formulation for the fast time scale through definition of a sequence of modified `fast' initial-value problems, that may be solved using any viable algorithm. We name the proposed class as implicit-explicit multirate infinitesimal generalized-structure additive Runge--Kutta (IMEX-MRI-GARK) methods. In addition to defining these methods, we prove that they may be viewed as specific instances of GARK methods, and derive a set of order conditions on the IMEX-MRI-GARK coefficients to guarantee both third and fourth order accuracy for the overall multirate method. Additionally, we provide three specific IMEX-MRI-GARK methods, two of order three and one of order four. We conclude with numerical simulations on two multirate test problems, demonstrating the methods' predicted convergence rates and comparing their efficiency against both legacy IMEX multirate schemes and recent third and fourth order implicit MRI-GARK methods.

Nonadiabatic corrections to fast dispersive multiqubit gates involving Z control

description: We review a time-dependent version of the Schrieffer-Wolff transformation that accounts for real-time control of system parameters, soon to be rendered possible on a broad basis due to technical progress. The dispersive regime of $N$ multilevel systems coupled to a cavity via a Jaynes-Cummings interaction is extended to the most general case. As a concrete example we rigorously apply the technique to dispersive two-qubit gates in a superconducting architecture, showing that fidelities based on previous models are off by up to $10^{-2}$, which is certainly relevant for high-fidelity gates compatible with fault-tolerant quantum information devices. A closed analytic form for the error depending on the target evolution closes our work.

Stationary peaks in a multivariable reaction--diffusion system: Foliated snaking due to subcritical Turing instability

description: An activator-inhibitor-substrate model of side-branching used in the context of pulmonary vascular and lung development is considered on the supposition that spatially localized concentrations of the activator trigger local side-branching. The model consists of four coupled reaction-diffusion equations and its steady localized solutions therefore obey an eight-dimensional spatial dynamical system in one dimension (1D). Stationary localized structures within the model are found to be associated with a subcritical Turing instability and organized within a distinct type of foliated snaking bifurcation structure. This behavior is in turn associated with the presence of an exchange point in parameter space at which the complex leading spatial eigenvalues of the uniform concentration state are overtaken by a pair of real eigenvalues; this point plays the role of a Belyakov-Devaney point in this system. The primary foliated snaking structure consists of periodic spike or peak trains with $N$ identical equidistant peaks, $N=1,2,\dots \,$, together with cross-links consisting of nonidentical, nonequidistant peaks. The structure is complicated by a multitude of multipulse states, some of which are also computed, and spans the parameter range from the primary Turing bifurcation all the way to the fold of the $N=1$ state. These states form a complex template from which localized physical structures develop in the transverse direction in 2D.

description: Let $Y$ be a compact Kähler normal space and $α\in H^{1,1}(Y,\mathbb{R})$ a Kähler class. We study metric properties of the space $\mathcal{H}_α$ of Kähler metrics in $α$ using Mabuchi geodesics. We extend several results by Calabi, Chen, Darvas previously established when the underlying space is smooth. As an application we analytically characterize the existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics on $\mathbb{Q}$-Fano varieties, generalizing a result of Tian, and illustrate these concepts in the case of toric varieties.
