description: Intrinsic quantum correlations supported by the $SU(2)\otimes SU(2)$ structure of the Dirac equation used to describe particle/antiparticle states, optical ion traps and bilayer graphene are investigated and connected to the description of local properties of Dirac bi-spinors. For quantum states driven by Dirac-like Hamiltonians, quantum entanglement and geometric discord between spin and parity degrees of freedom - sometimes mapped into equivalent low energy internal degrees of freedom - are obtained. Such \textit{spin-parity} quantum correlations and the corresponding nonlocal intrinsic structures of bi-spinor fermionic states can be classified in order to relate quantum observables to the (non)local behavior of these correlations. It is shown that free particle mixed states do not violate the Clauser-Horne-Shymony-Holt inequality: the correlations in such mixed bi-spinors, although quantum, can be reproduced by a suitable local hidden variable model. Additionally, the effects due to a non-minimal coupling to a homogeneous magnetic field, and to the inclusion of thermal effects are evaluated, and quantum correlations of associated quantum mixtures and of the thermal states are all quantified.The above-mentioned correlation quantifiers are then used to measure the influence of CP transformations on \textit{spin-parity} quantum correlations, and our results show that quantum entanglement is invariant under CP transformations, although the geometric discord is highly sensitive to the CP symmetry.

description: Modifications of spatial distributions of dynamic magnetization corresponding to spinwave eigenmodes of magnetic squares subjected to a strong microwave excitation field have been studied experimentally and theoretically. We show that an increase of the excitation power leads to a nonlinear generation of long-wavelength spatial harmonics caused by the nonlinear cross coupling between the eigenmodes. The analysis of the experimental data shows that this process is mainly governed by the action of the nonlinear spin-wave damping. This conclusion is further supported by the numerical calculations based on the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation phenomenologically taking into account the nonlinear damping.

description: The origin of the X-ray emission from neutron star coalescence GW170817/GRB170817A is a key diagnostic of the unsettled post-merger narrative, and different scenarios predict distinct evolution in its X-ray light curve. Due to its sky proximity to the Sun, sensitive X-ray monitoring of GW170817/GRB170817A has not been possible since a previous detection at 16 days post-burst. We present new, deep Chandra observations of GW170817/GRB170817A at 109 days post-burst, immediately after Sun constraints were lifted. The X-ray emission has brightened from a 0.3-8.0 keV flux of 3.6 x 10^-15 erg/s/cm^2 at 16 days to 15.8 x 10^-15 erg/s/cm^2 at 109 days, at a rate similar to the radio observations. This confirms that the X-ray and radio emission have a common origin. We show that the X-ray light curve is consistent with models of outflow afterglows, in which the outflow can be a cocoon shocked by the jet, dynamical ejecta from the merger, or an off-axis structured jet. Further deep X-ray monitoring can place powerful constraints on the physical parameters of these models, by both timing the passing of a synchrotron cooling break through the X-ray band, and detecting the associated steepening of the X-ray photon index. Finally, the X-ray brightening strengthens the argument that simple off-axis top-hat jet models are not consistent with the latest observations of GW170817/GRB170817A.

Adjacency preservers on invertible hermitian matrices II

Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Rings and Algebras (math.RA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Maps that preserve adjacency on the set of all invertible hermitian matrices over a finite field are characterized. It is shown that such maps form a group that is generated by the maps $A\mapsto PAP^{\ast}$, $A\mapsto A^σ$, and $A\mapsto A^{-1}$, where $P$ is an invertible matrix, $P^{\ast}$ is its conjugate transpose, and $σ$ is an automorphism of the underlying field. Bijectivity of maps is not an assumption but a conclusion. Moreover, adjacency is assumed to be preserved in one directions only. The main result and author's previous result [16] are applied to characterize maps that preserve the `speed of light' on (a) finite Minkowski space-time and (b) the complement of the light cone in finite Minkowski space-time.

description: Abstract: "Given a set of random variables, it is often the case that their associations can be explained by hidden common causes. We present a set of well-defined assumptions and a provably correct algorithm that allow us to identify some of such hidden common causes. The assumptions are fairly general and sometimes weaker than those used in practice by, for instance, econometricians, psychometricians, social scientists and in many other fields where latent variable models are important and tools such as factor analysis are applicable. The goal is automated knowledge discovery: identifying latent variables that can be used across different applications and causal models and throw new insights over a data generating process. Our approach is evaluated throught [sic] simulations and three real-world cases."

description: We report the first direct observation of the influence of high magnetic fields on the Jahn-Teller (JT) transition in TbVO4. Contrary to spectroscopic and magnetic methods, X-ray diffraction directly measures the JT distortion; the splitting between the (311)/(131) and (202)/(022) pairs of Bragg reflections is proportional to the order parameter. Our experimental results are compared to mean field calculations, taking into account all possible orientations of the grains relative to the applied field, and qualitative agreement is obtained.

description: Restricted-orientation convexity, also called O-convexity, is the study of geometric objects whose intersection with lines from some fixed set is empty or connected. The notion of O-convexity generalizes standard convexity and several types of nontraditional convexity. We introduce O-halfspaces, which are an analog of halfspaces in the theory of O-convexity. We show that this notion generalizes standard halfspaces, explore properties of these generalized halfspaces, and demonstrate their relationship to O-convex sets. We also describe directed O-halfspaces, which are a subclass of O-halfspaces that has some special properties. We first present some basic properties of O-halfspaces and compare them with the properties of standard halfspaces. We show that O-halfspaces may be disconnected, characterize an O- halfspace in terms of its connected components, and derive the upper bound on the number of components. We then study properties of the boundaries of O-halfspaces. Finally, we describe the complements of O-halfspaces and give a necessary and sufficient condition under which the complement of an O-halfspace is an O-halfspace

description: On-line estimation plays an important role in process control and monitoring. Obtaining a theoretical solution to the simultaneous state-parameter estimation problem for non-linear stochastic systems involves solving complex multi-dimensional integrals that are not amenable to analytical solution. While basic sequential Monte-Carlo (SMC) or particle filtering (PF) algorithms for simultaneous estimation exist, it is well recognized that there is a need for making these on-line algorithms non-degenerate, fast and applicable to processes with missing measurements. To overcome the deficiencies in traditional algorithms, this work proposes a Bayesian approach to on-line state and parameter estimation. Its extension to handle missing data in real-time is also provided. The simultaneous estimation is performed by filtering an extended vector of states and parameters using an adaptive sequential-importance-resampling (SIR) filter with a kernel density estimation method. The approach uses an on-line optimization algorithm based on Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence to allow adaptation of the SIR filter for combined state-parameter estimation. An optimal tuning rule to control the width of the kernel and the variance of the artificial noise added to the parameters is also proposed. The approach is illustrated through numerical examples.

description: A spectral line and imaging survey of the low mass-loss rate AGB star R Dor (Mdot ~ 1e-7 Msun/yr) and the high mass-loss rate AGB star IK Tau (Mdot ~5e-6 Msun/yr) was made with ALMA between 335 and 362 GHz at a spatial resolution of ~150 mas, corresponding to the locus of the main dust formation region of both targets. Some 200 spectral features from 15 molecules (and their isotopologues) were observed, including rotational lines in both the ground and vibrationally excited states. Detected species include the gaseous precursors of dust grains such as SiO, AlO, AlOH, TiO, and TiO2. We present a spectral atlas for both stars and the parameters of all detected spectral features. A clear dichotomy for the sulphur chemistry is seen: while CS, SiS, SO, and SO2 are abundantly present in IK Tau, only SO and SO2 are detected in R Dor. Also other species such as NaCl, NS, AlO, and AlOH display a completely different behaviour. From some selected species, the minor isotopologues can be used to assess the isotopic ratios. The channel maps of many species prove that both large and small-scale inhomogeneities persist in the inner wind of both stars in the form of blobs, arcs, and/or a disk. The high sensitivity of ALMA allows us to spot the impact of these correlated density structures in the spectral line profiles. The spectral lines often display a half width at zero intensity much larger than expected from the terminal velocity, v_inf, previously derived for both objects (36 km/s versus v_inf ~17.7 km/s for IK Tau and 23 km/s versus v_inf ~5.5 km/s for R Dor). Both a more complex 3D morphology and a more forceful wind acceleration of the (underlying) isotropic wind can explain this trend. The formation of fractal grains in the region beyond ~400 mas can potentially account for the latter scenario. From the continuum map, we deduce a dust mass of ~3.7e-7 Msun for IK Tau and ~2e-8 Msun for R Dor.

description: Four dimensional BF theory admits a natural coupling to extended sources supported on two dimensional surfaces or string world-sheets. Solutions of the theory are in one to one correspondence with solutions of Einstein equations with distributional matter (cosmic strings). We study new (topological field) theories that can be constructed by adding extra degrees of freedom to the two dimensional world-sheet. We show how two dimensional Yang-Mills degrees of freedom can be added on the world-sheet, producing in this way, an interactive (topological) theory of Yang-Mills fields with BF fields in four dimensions. We also show how a world-sheet tetrad can be naturally added. As in the previous case the set of solutions of these theories are contained in the set of solutions of Einstein's equations if one allows distributional matter supported on two dimensional surfaces. These theories are argued to be exactly quantizable. In the context of quantum gravity, one important motivation to study these models is to explore the possibility of constructing a background independent quantum field theory where local degrees of freedom at low energies arise from global topological (world-sheet) degrees of freedom at the fundamental level.

description: Soil is an important natural resource, a medium for plant growth, and its quality is decisive for sustainable crop productivity. Soil biological properties in evergreen and deciduous fruit crops were estimated under subtropical region of north-west India; wherein, samples were taken from 0–20 to 0–40 cm soil layers. In the present study, total soil organic carbon (TSOC) and carbon (C) pools, viz., very labile (CVL), labile (CL), less labile (CLL), non-labile (CNL) and biological properties were determined in fruit crops. The results revealed that TSOC, C pools and soil enzymes activities were significantly higher in fruit crops as compared to control (uncultivated). The uncultivated soils (1.96 g kg−1) had the lowest TSOC content, which was lower (p 0.05) than evergreen (3.19–4.69 g kg−1) and deciduous (2.99–5.68 g kg−1) fruit crops. Soil biological properties (microbial biomass carbon, basal soil respiration and quotients) were significantly higher in the fruit crops than the uncultivated, which has increased the C mineralization in soil. Principal component analysis identified CL in PC1 (explaining 52.2% of total variability), microbial quotients in PC2 (25.7% variability) and soil pH in PC3 (10.3% variability) as the most dominant and reliable indicators for the assessment of soil quality in fruit crops. In general, evergreen crops showed higher soil biological activities than deciduous fruit crops. The result signifies that the evergreen fruit crops substantially influenced C sequestration than deciduous fruit crops, which consequential mitigate the negative impacts of climate change.

description: Combinatorial drugs have been widely applied in disease treatment, especially chemotherapy for cancer, due to its improved efficacy and reduced toxicity compared with individual drugs. The study of combinatorial drugs requires efficient experimental designs and proper follow-up statistical modelling techniques. Linear and non-linear models are often used in the response surface modelling for such experiments. We propose the use of Kriging models to better depict the response surfaces of combinatorial drugs and take into account the measurement error. We further study how proper experimental designs can reduce the required number of runs. We illustrate our method via a combinatorial drug experiment on lung cancer. We demonstrate that only 27 runs are needed to predict all 512 runs in the original experiment and achieve better precision than existing analysis.

description: Searches for the prebiotically-relevant cyanamide (NH$_2$CN) towards solar-type protostars have not been reported in the literature. We here present the first detection of this species in the warm gas surrounding two solar-type protostars, using data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array Protostellar Interferometric Line Survey (PILS) of IRAS 16293-2422 B and observations from the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer of NGC1333 IRAS2A. We furthermore detect the deuterated and $^{13}$C isotopologues of NH$_2$CN towards IRAS 16293-2422 B. This is the first detection of NHDCN in the interstellar medium. Based on a local thermodynamic equilibrium analysis, we find that the deuteration of cyanamide ($\sim$ 1.7%) is similar to that of formamide (NH$_2$CHO), which may suggest that these two molecules share NH$_2$ as a common precursor. The NH$_2$CN/NH$_2$CHO abundance ratio is about 0.2 for IRAS 16293-2422 B and 0.02 for IRAS2A, which is comparable to the range of values found for Sgr B2. We explored the possible formation of NH$_2$CN on grains through the NH$_2$ + CN reaction using the chemical model MAGICKAL. Grain-surface chemistry appears capable of reproducing the gas-phase abundance of NH$_2$CN with the correct choice of physical parameters.

This set of data with 45'' resolution comprises the highest spatial dynamic range image of an individual molecular cloud constructed to date and provides valuable insights to the molecular gas distribution, kinematics, and the star formation process. In this contribution, we describe the observations, calibration, data processing, and characteristics of the noise and line emission of the survey. The angular distribution of 12CO and 13CO emission over 1 km s−1 velocity intervals and the full velocity extent of the cloud are presented. These reveal a complex, dynamic medium of cold, molecular gas.

description: Fog computing serves as a computing layer that sits between the edge devices and the cloud in the network topology. They have more compute capacity than the edge but much less so than cloud data centers. They typically have high uptime and always-on Internet connectivity. Applications that make use of the fog can avoid the network performance limitation of cloud computing while being less resource constrained than edge computing. As a result, they offer a useful balance of the current paradigms. This article explores various aspects of fog computing in the context of big data.

description: We construct a class of random potentials for N >> 1 scalar fields using non-equilibrium random matrix theory, and then characterize multifield inflation in this setting. By stipulating that the Hessian matrices in adjacent coordinate patches are related by Dyson Brownian motion, we define the potential in the vicinity of a trajectory. This method remains computationally efficient at large N, permitting us to study much larger systems than has been possible with other constructions. We illustrate the utility of our approach with a numerical study of inflation in systems with up to 100 coupled scalar fields. A significant finding is that eigenvalue repulsion sharply reduces the duration of inflation near a critical point of the potential: even if the curvature of the potential is fine-tuned to be small at the critical point, small cross-couplings in the Hessian cause the curvature to grow in the neighborhood of the critical point.

description: Random lasers are based on disordered materials with optical gain. These devices can exhibit either intensity or resonant feedback, relying on diffusive or interference behaviour of light, respectively, which leads to either coupling or independent operation of lasing modes. We study for the first time these regimes in complex, solid-state nanostructured materials. The number of lasing modes and their intensity correlation features are found to be tailorable in random lasers made of light-emitting, electrospun polymer fibers upon nanoparticle doping. By material engineering, directional waveguiding along the length of fibers is found to be relevant to enhance mode correlation in both intensity feedback and resonant feedback random lasing. The here reported findings can be used to establish new design rules for tuning the emission of nano-lasers and correlation properties by means of the compositional and morphological properties of complex nanostructured materials.

description: The number of star clusters that populate the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) at deprojected distances < 4 deg has been recently found to be nearly double the known size of the system. Because of the unprecedented consequences of this outcome in our knowledge of the LMC cluster formation and dissolution histories, we closely revisited such a compilation of objects and found that only ~ 35 per cent of the previously known catalogued clusters has been included. The remaining entries are likely related to stellar overdensities of the LMC composite star field, because there is a remarkable enhancement of objects with assigned ages older than log(t yr-1) ~ 9.4, which contrasts with the existence of the LMC cluster age gap; the assumption of a cluster formation rate similar to that of the LMC star field does not help to conciliate so large amount of clusters either; and nearly 50 per cent of them come from cluster search procedures known to produce more than 90 per cent of false detections. The lack of further analyses to confirm the physical reality as genuine star clusters of the identified overdensities also glooms those results. We support that the actual size of the LMC main body cluster population is close to that previously known.

Given two strongly commuting CP_0-semigroups $ϕ$ and $θ$ on B(H), there is a Hilbert space K containing H and two (strongly) commuting E_0-semigroups $α$ and $β$ such that $ϕ_s \circ θ_t (P_H A P_H) = P_H α_s \circ β_t (A) P_H$ for all s,t and all A in B(K). In this note we prove that if $ϕ$ is not an automorphism semigroup then $α$ is cocycle conjugate to the minimal *-endomorphic dilation of $ϕ$, and that if $ϕ$ is an automorphism semigroup then $α$ is also an automorphism semigroup. In particular, we conclude that if $ϕ$ is not an automorphism semigroup and has a bounded generator (in particular, if H is finite dimensional) then $α$ is a type I E_0-semigroup.

description: Using ALMA, we observed the stellar wind of two oxygen-rich Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars, IK Tau and R Dor, between 335 and 362 GHz. One aim was to detect metal oxides and metal hydroxides (AlO, AlOH, FeO, MgO, MgOH), some of which are thought to be direct precursors of dust nucleation and growth. We report on the potential first detection of FeO (v=0, Omega=4, J=11-10) in RDor (mass-loss rate, Mdot, ~1e-7 Msun/yr). The presence of FeO in IK Tau (Mdot~5e-6 Msun/yr) cannot be confirmed due to a blend with 29SiS, a molecule that is absent in R Dor. The detection of AlO in R Dor and of AlOH in IK Tau was reported earlier by Decin et al. (2017). All other metal oxides and hydroxides, as well as MgS, remain undetected. We derive a column density N(FeO) of 1.1+/-0.9e15 cm^{-2} in R Dor, or a fractional abundance [FeO/H]~1.5e-8 accounting for non-LTE effects. The derived fractional abundance [FeO/H] is a factor ~20 larger than conventional gas-phase chemical kinetic predictions. This discrepancy may be partly accounted for by the role of vibrationally excited OH in oxidizing Fe, or may be evidence for other currently unrecognised chemical pathways producing FeO. Assuming a constant fractional abundance w.r.t. H_2, the upper limits for the other metals are [MgO/H_2] <5.5e-10 (R Dor) and <7e-11 (IK Tau), [MgOH/H_2] <9e-9 (R Dor) and <1e-9 (IK Tau), [CaO/H_2] <2.5e-9 (R Dor) and <1e-10 (IK Tau), [CaOH/H_2] <6.5e-9 (R Dor) and <9e-10 (IK Tau), and [MgS/H_$] <4.5e-10 (R Dor) and <6e-11 (IK Tau). The retrieved upper limit abundances for these latter molecules are in accord with the chemical model predictions.

description: Abstract: "In this paper we introduce GEM (Graph EMbedding for sensor networks), an infrastructure for node-to-node routing and data-centric storage and information processing in sensor networks. In GEM, we construct a labeled graph that can be embedded in the original network topology in an efficient and distributed fashion. In that graph, each node is given a label that encodes its position in the original network topology. This allows messages to be efficiently routed through the network, while each node only needs to know the labels of its neighbors. To demonstrate how GEM can be applied, we have developed a concrete graph embedding method, VPCS (Virtual Polar Coordinate Space), which embeds a ringed tree into the network topology. We have also developed VPCR, an efficient routing algorithm that uses VPCS. VPCR is the first algorithm for node-to-node routing that guarantees reachability, requires each node to keep state only about its immediate neighbors, and requires no geographic information. Our simulation results show that VPCR is robust on dynamic networks, works well in the face of voids and obstacles, and scales well with network size and density."
Scheduling arc shut downs in a network to maximize flow over time with a bounded number of jobs per time period

description: We study the problem of scheduling maintenance on arcs of a capacitated network so as to maximize the total flow from a source node to a sink node over a set of time periods. Maintenance on an arc shuts down the arc for the duration of the period in which its maintenance is scheduled, making its capacity zero for that period. A set of arcs is designated to have maintenance during the planning period, which will require each to be shut down for exactly one time period. In general this problem is known to be NP-hard, and several special instance classes have been studied. Here we propose an additional constraint which limits the number of maintenance jobs per time period, and we study the impact of this on the complexity.
The Great Influenza Pandemic_ What Really Happened in 1918?

description: The word Influenza comes from mid–18th century Italian and literally means ‘influence’. Similar to how the coronavirus was once best known to cause the common cold, in 1918 Influenza was felt to be so benign a disease that it was not reportable in the United States. And it was not until 1933 that Influenza was “discovered”. So just what was causing the deaths in 1918? And why did the corona “virus” turn so deadly so quickly? Before we can be certain of anything, these questions need to be answered. But to this point, they have not been answered. In the meantime, during both events there was a deadly pandemic of tuberculosis going on, a pandemic which even in 2020 kills one person every 21 seconds for a total of at least 1.5 to 1.8 million dead in 2018 alone. Yet Robert Koch, TB’s discoverer, was repeatedly forced to call it a virus, to assuage other authorities of his time. And, as we shall soon see, the concept that only a new and virulent strain of a virus can be so infectious and kill so quickly is not only fallacious, but dangerous -and completely at odds with what used to be called the acute form of “galloping consumption” [tuberculosis] which did and still can kill in a matter of hours, days or weeks.
“Viral” influenza was informally first mentioned as being behind America’s 1918 influenza pandemic not by a direct study of the disease in humans, but rather from studies on animal diseases. In 1918, J.S. Koen, a veterinarian, observed a disease killing thousands of pigs which he believed to be the same disease as the now infamous influenza Pandemic of 1918. He felt that it was a virus. It was solely his belief. Yet new evidence and older historical findings bring up the possibility that influenza doesn’t originate from a virus –despite the indefatigable efforts, up to the present, of flu enthusiasts to viralize the 1918-19 pandemic. (Burnet F, Clark E. 1942) (Morens DM, Taubenberger JK. 2009). As we shall see, such efforts on the part of viral devotees are nothing new, and began in force with scant evidence in Great Britain during the 1st World War, also known as the Great War.
Normalisers of parabolic subgroups in finite unitary reflection groups

description: It is well known that the normaliser of a parabolic subgroup of a finite Coxeter group is the semidirect product of the parabolic subgroup by the stabiliser of a set of simple roots. We show that a similar result holds for all finite unitary reflection groups: namely, the normaliser of a parabolic subgroup is a semidirect product and in many, but not all, cases the complement can be obtained as the stabiliser of a set of roots. In addition we record when the complement acts as a reflection group on the space of fixed points of the parabolic subgroup.

description: We discuss properties of a new class of p-brane models, describing intrinsically lightlike branes for any world-volume dimension, in various gravitational backgrounds of interest in the context of black hole physics. One of the characteristic features of these lightlike p-branes is that the brane tension appears as an additional nontrivial dynamical world-volume degree of freedom. Codimension one lightlike brane dynamics requires that bulk space with a bulk metric of spherically symmetric type must possess an event horizon which is automatically occupied by the lightlike brane while its tension evolves exponentially with time. The latter phenomenon is an analog of the well known "mass inflation" effect in black holes.

Fusion of monocular cues to detect man-made structures in aerial imagery

description: Abstract: "The detection and delineation of man-made structures from aerial imagery is a complex computer vision problem. It requires locating regions in imagery that posses properties distinguishing them as man-made objects in the scene, as opposed to naturally occurring terrain features. The building extraction process requires techniques that exploit knowledge about the structure of man-made objects. Techniques do exist that take advantage of this knowledge; various methods use edge-line analysis, shadow analysis, and stereo imagery analysis to produce building hypotheses.It is reasonable, however, to assume that no single detection method will correctly delineate or verify buildings in every scene. As an example, a feature extraction system that relies on the analysis of cast shadows to predict building locations is likely to fail in cases where the sun is directly above the scene. In this paper, we introduce a cooperative-methods paradigm for information fusion that is shown to be highly effective in improving the system performance over that achieved by individual building extraction methods. Using this paradigm, each extraction technique provides information that can be added or assimilated into an overall interpretation of the scene.Thus, our research focus is to explore the development of a computer vision system that integrates the results of various scene analysis techniques into an accurate and robust interpretation of the underlying three-dimensional scene. We briefly survey four monocular building extraction, verification, and clustering systems that form the basis for the research described here. A method for fusing the symbolic data generated by these systems is described, and it is applied to both monocular image and stereo image data sets. A set of performance evaluation metrics are developed, described, and applied to the fusion result. Several detailed analyses are presented, as well as a summary of results on 23 monocular and 5 stereo scenes.These experiments show that a significant improvement in building detection is achieved using these techniques."
