description: This paper introduces new perspectives on analog design space search. To minimize the time-to-market, this endeavor better cast as constraint satisfaction problem than global optimization defined in prior arts. We incorporate model-based agents, contrasted with model-free learning, to implement a trust-region strategy. As such, simple feed-forward networks can be trained with supervised learning, where the convergence is relatively trivial. Experiment results demonstrate orders of magnitude improvement on search iterations. Additionally, the unprecedented consideration of PVT conditions are accommodated. On circuits with TSMC 5/6nm process, our method achieve performance surpassing human designers. Furthermore, this framework is in production in industrial settings.

Minima of Classically Scale-Invariant Potentials

description: We propose a new formalism to analyse the extremum structure of scale-invariant effective potentials. The problem is stated in a compact matrix form, used to derive general expressions for the stationary point equation and the mass matrix of a multi-field RG-improved effective potential. Our method improves on (but is not limited to) the Gildener-Weinberg approximation and identifies a set of conditions that signal the presence of a radiative minimum. When the conditions are satisfied at different scales, or in different subspaces of the field space, the effective potential has more than one radiative minimum. We illustrate the method through simple examples and study in detail a Standard-Model-like scenario where the potential admits two radiative minima. Whereas we mostly concentrate on biquadratic potentials, our results carry over to the general case by using tensor algebra.

description: Quantum Cosmology and Gravity are formulated here as the primary and secondary quantizations of the energy constraints by analogy with the historical formulation of quantum field theory. New fact is that both the Universe and its matter are created from stable vacuum obtained by the Bogoliubov-type transformation just as it is in the theory of quantum superfluid liquid. Such the Quantum Gravity gives us possibility to explain topical problems of cosmology by the cosmological creation of universes and particles from vacuum.

description: A-to-I RNA editing by ADARs is a post-transcriptional mechanism for expanding the proteomic repertoire. Genetic recoding by editing was so far observed for only a few mammalian RNAs that are predominantly expressed in nervous tissues. However, as these editing targets fail to explain the broad and severe phenotypes of ADAR1 knockout mice, additional targets for editing by ADARs were always expected. Using comparative genomics and expressed sequence analysis, we identified and experimentally verified four additional candidate human substrates for ADAR-mediated editing: FLNA, BLCAP, CYFIP2 and IGFBP7. Additionally, editing of three of these substrates was verified in the mouse while two of them were validated in chicken. Interestingly, none of these substrates encodes a receptor protein but two of them are strongly expressed in the CNS and seem important for proper nervous system function. The editing pattern observed suggests that some of the affected proteins might have altered physiological properties leaving the possibility that they can be related to the phenotypes of ADAR1 knockout mice.

A Brownian particle having a fluctuating mass

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We focus on the dynamics of a Brownian particle whose mass fluctuates. First we show that the behaviour is similar to that of a Brownian particle moving in a fluctuating medium, as studied by Beck [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87 (2001) 180601]. By performing numerical simulations of the Langevin equation, we check the theoretical predictions derived in the adiabatic limit, and study deviations outside this limit. We compare the mass velocity distribution with truncated Tsallis distributions [J. Stat. Phys. 52 (1988) 479] and find excellent agreement if the masses are chi- squared distributed. We also consider the diffusion of the Brownian particle by studying a Bernoulli random walk with fluctuating walk length in one dimension. We observe the time dependence of the position distribution kurtosis and find interesting behaviours. We point out a few physical cases where the mass fluctuation problem could be encountered as a first approximation for agglomeration- fracture non equilibrium processes.

description: We study the effect of a resonant frequency disorder on the eigenstates and the transport of magnetic energy in a two-dimensional (square) array of split-ring resonators (SRRs). In the absence of disorder, we find the dispersion relation of magneto-inductive waves and the mean square displacement (MSD) in closed form, showing that at long times the MSD is ballistic. When disorder is present, we consider two types: the usual Anderson distribution (uncorrelated monomers) and $2 \times 2$ units assigned at random to lattice sites (correlated tetramers). This is a direct extension to two dimensions of the one-dimensional random dimer model (RDM). For the uncorrelated case, we see saturation of the MSD for all disorder widths, while for the correlated case we find a disorder window, inside which the MSD does not saturate at long times, with an asymptotic sub-diffusive behavior $MSD\sim t^{0.26}$. Outside this disorder window, the MSD shows the same kind of saturation as in the monomer case. We conjecture that the sub-diffusive behavior is a remanent of a weak resonant transmission of a 2D plane wave across a tetramer unit.

description: Along the college pipeline, a student must complete three steps to access college and select a career: 1) build aspirations to go to college and choose a career, 2) make the necessary academic preparations to be academically qualified to attend college and/or be successful in a career path, and 3) take the necessary entrance exams and applications for postsecondary education. In this study, researchers will examine how a youth program, Starr Hill Pathways, addresses the first step and track how students follow through in the subsequent long-term steps through a longitudinal, mixed methods research design. We expect the implementation oof the youth program and associated impact on career and college-going self-efficacy, career and college outcome expectancy, and the educational goals of BIPOC youth and students of low and middle incomes to inform future practice in local school districts and strengthen the community partnerships. We will match administrative student record data on students’ attendance, grades, standardized test scores, and discipline referrals provided by Albemarle County Public Schools to survey scales measuring college-going and career self-efficacy and outcome expectations. Interviews, focus groups, and observations will also be collected from students and programming staff throughout the duration of the project.

description: We present a generic mechanism for the thermal damping of compressive waves in the interstellar medium (ISM), occurring due to radiative cooling. We solve for the dispersion relation of magnetosonic waves in a two-fluid (ion-neutral) system in which density- and temperature-dependent heating and cooling mechanisms are present. We use this dispersion relation, in addition to an analytic approximation for the nonlinear turbulent cascade, to model dissipation of weak magnetosonic turbulence. We show that in some ISM conditions, the cutoff wavelength for magnetosonic turbulence becomes tens to hundreds of times larger when the thermal damping is added to the regular ion-neutral damping. We also run numerical simulations which confirm that this effect has a dramatic impact on cascade of compressive wave modes.

description: Microwave radiation applied to single-molecule magnets can induce large magnetization changes when the radiation is resonant with transitions between spin levels. These changes are interpreted as due to resonant heating of the sample by the microwaves. Pulsed-radiation studies show that the magnetization continues to decrease after the radiation has been turned off with a rate that is consistent with the spin's characteristic relaxation rate. The measured rate increases with pulse duration and microwave power, indicating that greater absorbed radiation energy results in a higher sample temperature. We also performed numerical simulations that qualitatively reproduce many of the experimental results. Our results indicate that experiments aimed at measuring the magnetization dynamics between two levels resonant with the radiation must be done much faster than the >20-microsecond time scales probed in these experiments.

description: Indications of disequilibrium throughout the Milky Way (MW) highlight the need for compact,flexible, non-parametric descriptions of phase--space distributions of galaxies. We present a new representation of the current Dark Matter (DM) distribution and potential derived from N-body simulations of the Milky Way and Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) system using Basis Function Expansions (BFEs). We incorporate methods to maximize the physical signal in the representation. As a result, the simulations of $10^8$ DM particles representing the MW--LMC system can be described by 354 coefficients. We find that the LMC induces asymmetric perturbations (odd l, m) to the MW's halo, which are not well-described by oblate, prolate, or triaxial halos. Furthermore, the energy in high-order even modes (l,m $\geq$ 2) is similar to average triaxial halos found in cosmological simulations. As such, the response of the MW's halo to the LMC must be accounted for in order to recover the imprints of its assembly history. The LMC causes the outer halo ($\geq$ 30 kpc) to shift from the disk center of mass (COM) by $\sim$15-25 kpc at present day, manifesting as a dipole in the BFE and in the radial velocities of halo stars. The shift depends on the LMC's infall mass, the distortion of the LMC's halo and the MW halo response. Within 30 kpc, halo tracers are expected to orbit the COM of the MW's disk, regardless of LMC infall mass. The LMC's halo is also distorted by MW tides, we discuss the implications for its mass loss and the subsequent effects on current Magellanic satellites.

Understanding the significance of a neighbourhood movie theatre as a cultural resource
Creators: name: Bennett, Tammy Lynne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The Greater Vancouver Regional District (GVRD) is in an era of growth, fundamental change, and reexamination of regional and local quality of life. Within this context, the complete community policies of the Livable Region Strategic Plan have been developed to help achieve a region where human community flourishes within the built and natural environment. The complete communities concept provides people with broader diversity in the physical and social elements of community - houses, travel, workplaces, social contacts, public services, recreation activities, shops and personal services (GVRD, 1995). By allowing this diversity, people will have a wider range of choices for urban living. In recent years, municipalities in the GVRD have begun to recognize that cultural resources are integral to the overall health, vitality and livability of the region. The role of culture and cultural resources in maintaining and enhancing the region's livability is acknowledged in two of the complete community policies. Cultural resources are the "things" which give a neighbourhood, a city, or region its particular sense of time and place and they are the expressions of what that place is. The conservation of cultural resources to a community provides a means of making a neighbourhood, city or region more aesthetically pleasing, and thus more livable. Neighbourhood movie theatres, for example, are one of the many types of buildings with cultural significance which may contribute to a community's character, quality of life and foster a sense of pride for residents in Vancouver communities. Neighbourhood movie theatres have been an essential component of the movie-going experience for the citizens of Vancouver since the 1930s. The purpose of this thesis is to ascertain whether cultural resources, such as a movie theatre, contribute to a complete community. Through both a literature review and case study approach, the research sought to understand the significance of cultural resources, such as a movie theatre, to a community. The thesis focuses on the case study of the Hollywood Theatre in Kitsilano to explore how a local cultural resource contributes to the community. A survey was designed and administered to 60 patrons of the Hollywood Theatre. The study concludes that the patrons of the Hollywood Theatre indicated that the theatre contributes to the vitality, and livability of the community. The prospects for achieving complete communities in established neighbourhoods will be influenced by local perspectives on growth, and change. Complete community objectives and strategies may be accepted locally to the degree they are seen as a means to achieve community aspirations and improve the quality of life of residents.

description: A field theoretic understanding of how the radial direction in the AdS/CFT Correspondence plays the role of a gauge invariant measure of energy scale has long been missing. In SU(N) Yang-Mills, a realization of a gauge invariant cutoff has been achieved by embedding the theory in spontaneously broken SU(N|N) gauge theory. With the recent discovery of ghost D-branes an AdS/CFT Correspondence version of this scheme is now possible. We show that a very simple construction precisely ties the two pictures together providing a concrete understanding of the radial RG flow on the field theory side.

description: We investigate how classical predictability of the coarse-grained evolution of the quantum baker's map depends on the character of the coarse-graining. Our analysis extends earlier work by Brun and Hartle [Phys. Rev. D 60, 123503 (1999)] to the case of a chaotic map. To quantify predictability, we compare the rate of entropy increase for a family of coarse-grainings in the decoherent histories formalism. We find that the rate of entropy increase is dominated by the number of scales characterising the coarse-graining.

description: Computer models are important tools for assessing regional carbon sequestration and other environmental impacts of agricultural management practices. The Environmental Policy Integrated Climate (EPIC) model is a very flexible model that has been used to make a wide range of field- and regional-scale environmental assessments. Large regional-scale applications of EPIC and similar models can require thousands of runs, resulting in a huge data management task. To address this problem, the Center for Agricultural and Rural Development (CARD) has developed an interactive EPIC (i_EPIC) software package that provides an automated approach to executing large sets of EPIC simulations. Overviews of both the latest EPIC version and the i_EPIC software package are presented. We also present examples of regional applications using both EPIC and i_EPIC conducted by the Resource and Environmental Policy Division of CARD, by the Joint Global Change Research Institute of the University of Maryland and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and by the Resource Assessment Division of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture.

description: We investigate the sensitivity of electron-proton ($ep$) colliders for charged lepton flavor violation (cLFV) in an effective theory approach, considering a general effective Lagrangian for the conversion of an electron into a muon or a tau via the effective coupling to a neutral gauge boson or a neutral scalar field. For the photon, the $Z$ boson and the Higgs particle of the Standard Model, we present the sensitivities of the LHeC for the coefficients of the effective operators, calculated from an analysis at the reconstructed level. As an example model where such flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) operators are generated at loop level, we consider the extension of the Standard Model by sterile neutrinos. We show that the LHeC could already probe the LFV conversion of an electron into a muon beyond the current experimental bounds, and could reach more than an order of magnitude higher sensitivity than the present limits for LFV conversion of an electron into a tau. We discuss that the high sensitivities are possible because the converted charged lepton is dominantly emitted in the backward direction, enabling an efficient separation of the signal from the background.

High energy amplitude in the dipole approach with Pomeron loops: asymptotic solution
Creators: name: Levin, E.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this paper an analytical solution for the high energy scattering amplitude is suggested. This solution has several unexpected features:(i) the asymptotic amplitude is a function of dipole sizes and, therefore, this amplitude shows the gray disc structure at high energy, instead of black disc behaviour which was expected; (ii) the amplitude approaches the asymptotic limit in the same way as the solution to the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation does ($\propto \exp(- C Y^2) $), but the coefficient $C$ in eight times smaller than for the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation; (iii) the process of merging of two dipoles into one, only influences the high energy asymptotic behaviour by changing the initial condition from $Z(Y; [u_i = 1]) = 1 $ to $Z(Y; [u_i = 1 - γ_{0,i}]) =1$. The value of $γ_0$ is determined by the process of merging of two dipoles into one. With this new initial condition the Balitsky-JIMWLK approach describes the high energy asymptotic behaviour of the scattering amplitude without any modifications recently suggested.

description: We present a simple model reproducing the long-range autocorrelations and the power spectrum of the web traffic. The model assumes the traffic as Poisson flow of files with size distributed according to the power-law. In this model the long-range autocorrelations are independent of the network properties as well as of inter-packet time distribution.

description: Pipe-piles are installed using impact or vibratory driving which influences the soil in different ways including the void ratio and stress distribution. Such complex problems are hard to investigate on the field as well as using numerical methods. Here, a sophisticated numerical approach is employed to evaluate the soil behavior during pile installation. Also, a sensitivity analysis on the frequency and the impact duration is done for vibratory and impact driving, respectively. The investigation includes the required force of the pile installation, pile penetration behavior, plugging formation inside the pile, and the change of the soil state including the change in the horizontal stress and density around the pile during the installation. Results of the numerical model show several advantages of vibratory driving over impact driving in the dense sand including, reaching the designated depth using less momentum and work as well as more soil compaction.

description: The use of environmental policy instruments such as eco-labelling and pesticide taxes should preferably be based on disaggregate estimates of the individuals' willingness to pay (WTP) for pesticide risk reductions. We review the empirical valuation literature dealing with pesticide risk exposure and develop a taxonomy of environmental and human health risks associated with pesticide usage. Subsequently, we use meta-analysis to investigate the variation in WTP estimates for reduced pesticide risk exposure. Our findings show that the WTP for reduced risk exposure is approximately 15% greater for medium, and 80% greater for high risk-levels, as compared to low risk levels. The income elasticity of pesticide risk exposure is generally positive, although not overly robust. Most results indicate that the demand for human health and environmental safety is highly elastic. We also show that geographical differences, characteristics of the survey, and the type safety device (eco-labelling, integrated management, or bans) are important drivers of the valuation results.

A simple method for obtaining electron scattering phase shifts from energies of an atom in a cavity

Year: 2005

description: We present a simple method for obtaining elastic scattering phase shifts and cross sections from energies of atoms or ions in cavities. This method does not require calculations of wavefunctions of continuum states, is very general, and is extremely convenient from practical point of view: some conventional computer codes designed for the energies of bound states can be used without modifications. The application of the method is illustrated on an example of electron scattering from Kr and Ar. From Brueckner orbital energies in variable cavities, we have obtained ab initio cross sections that are in close agreement with experiment. The relativistic effects are also considered and found to be small below 10 eV.

description: The main objective of this paper is to estimate the relationship between telecommunication and the volume of trade. More specifically, we estimate the effect of improved telecommunication on bilateral trade of agricultural and non-agricultural goods among the OECD countries in each year from 1997 to 2001.The results indicate that per capita GDPs, geographical sizes, and telecommunication investments in both exporting and importing countries are significant and positively related to the value of bilateral trade between them. In agricultural trade, the investment in telecommunication in importing countries is more important than that of exporting countries. The geographical size of the exporting country is more important in agricultural trade than that of the importing country; but it is not the case in non-agricultural trade. This indicates that land is one of essential factors in agricultural trade. In non-agricultural trade, telecommunication investment of the exporting country is more important than that of the importing country. Moreover, the size of the selling market (exporting country) is more important than that of the importing country, relative to non-agricultural trade. In addition, the distance between trading countries is significant and negatively related to the bilateral trade value. The other dummy variables, representing the EU, NAFTA, common language, and common border, are also significant and positively related to bilateral trade values.

description: We present fitting formulae for the dynamical ejecta properties and remnant disk masses from the largest to date sample of numerical relativity simulations. The considered data include some of the latest simulations with microphysical nuclear equations of state (EOS) and neutrino transport as well as other results with polytropic EOS available in the literature. Our analysis indicates that the broad features of the dynamical ejecta and disk properties can be captured by fitting expressions that depend on mass ratio and reduced tidal parameter. The comparative analysis of literature data shows that microphysics and neutrino absorption have a significant impact on the dynamical ejecta properties. Microphysical nuclear equations of state lead to average velocities smaller than polytropic EOS, while including neutrino absorption results in larger average ejecta masses and electron fractions. Hence, microphysics and neutrino transport are necessary to obtain quantitative models of the ejecta in terms of the binary parameters.

The structure-activity relationship study of the N-terminal domain in desert locust ion transport peptide (ITP)
Creators: name: Zhao, Ying
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The ileum and rectum of locust hindgut constitute the reabsorptive part of the excretory system. They are functionally analogous to a proximal and distal parts of convoluted tubule of the mammalian kidney tubule, respectively. Ion transport peptide (ITP) purified from locust nervous corpus cardiacum (CC) has been shown to stimulate salt and water reabsorption and inhibit acid secretion in the ileum of Schistocerca gregaria . The primary structure of ITP deduced from its cDNA suggests that it is a 72 amino acid peptide with C-terminal amidation and three disulfide bonds. Both synthetic and expressed ITP mimic the biological activity of ITP purified from S.gregaria CC. It has been demonstrated that ITP is a true member of the CHH (Crustacean Hyperglycemic Hormone) family. This study examines the structure-activity relationship of the N-terminal domain of ITP. Two questions are addressed: 1. Is the N-terminal domain of ITP consisting of the first six amino acids (SFFDIQ) important to bioactivity? 2. Which amino acids in the N-terminal domain of ITP are essential for ITP binding to the receptor and/or activating the receptor? Using site-directed mutagenesis and voltage-clamped locust ileum as bioassay, I found the ITP N-terminal domain (SFFDIQ) is important for its bioactivity. Among the six amino acid of ITP N-terminus, Phe2 and Phe3 are essential for ITP binding to the receptor, and Phe2 is also important to receptor activation. The other four amino acids SI, D4,15, and Q6 didn't contribute to the ITP bioactivity, even D4 is a highly conserved amino acid. Post-translational modification of conversion L- to D- amino acid probably occurs at Phe2 and Phe3 to yield two ITP isomorphs. Mutations on the ITP N-terminal domain didn't interfere with the dibasic cleavage site in spite of its immediate proximity to the dibasic cleavage site. Mutant F2A has the potential to be ITP antagonist.

description: This paper adapts a generalized expected utility (GEU) maximization model (Epstein and Zin, 1989 and 1991) to examine the intertemporal risk management of wheat producers in the Pacific Northwest. Optimization results based on simulated data indicate the feasibility of the GEU optimization as a modeling framework. It further extends the GEU model by incorporating a welfare measure, the certainty equivalent, to investigate the impacts of U.S. government programs and market institutions on farmers' risk management decisions and welfare. A comparison between the GEU and other expected utility models further implies GEU has the advantage of specifying farmers' intertemporal preferences separately and completely. Impact analysis results imply that farmers' optimal hedging is sensitive to changes in the preferences and the effects of these preference changes are intertwined. Target price and loan rate levels, offered by certain government payment programs, can lead to the substitution of government programs for hedging. The evaluation of current risk management tools shows both crop insurance and government payments can improve farmers' welfare significantly. Government payment programs have a greater effect on farmers' welfare than crop insurance and crop insurance outperforms hedging.
