Statistical mechanics of a single particle in a multiscale random potential: Parisi landscapes in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces

description: We construct a N-dimensional Gaussian landscape with multiscale, translation invariant, logarithmic correlations and investigate the statistical mechanics of a single particle in this environment. In the limit of high dimension N>>1 the free energy of the system and overlap function are calculated exactly using the replica trick and Parisi's hierarchical ansatz. In the thermodynamic limit, we recover the most general version of the Derrida's Generalized Random Energy Model (GREM). The low-temperature behaviour depends essentially on the spectrum of length scales involved in the construction of the landscape. If the latter consists of K discrete values, the system is characterized by a K-step Replica Symmetry Breaking solution. We argue that our construction is in fact valid in any finite spatial dimensions $N\ge 1$. We discuss implications of our results for the singularity spectrum describing multifractality of the associated Boltzmann-Gibbs measure. Finally we discuss several generalisations and open problems, the dynamics in such a landscape and the construction of a Generalized Multifractal Random Walk.

description: Chirality or handedness in condensed matter induces anomalous optical responses such as natural optical activity, rotation of the plane of light polarization, as a result of breaking of spatial-inversion symmetry. In this study, optical properties of a Weyl spin-orbit system with quadratic dispersion, a typical chiral system invariant under time-reversal, are investigated theoretically by deriving an effective Hamiltonian based on an imaginary-time path-integral formalism. We show that the effective Hamiltonian can be indeed written in terms of an optical chirality order parameter suggested by Lipkin. The natural optical activity is discussed based on the Hamiltonian.

Canadian Family reunification immigration policies - Should the Parents and Grandparents (PGP) sponsorship intake program be based on a lottery or a first-come, first-served system? Or can a more effective hybrid system be put in place for sponsoring parents or grandparents of permanent residents or Canadians? What other factors can be considered to determine the selection of potential sponsors?

description: As of 2016, 60.3% of new immigrants to Canada were admitted under the economic stream, 26.8% accounted for the family reunification class, while 11.6% were refugees (Statistics Canada 2017). Family migration is important to people, and residents and citizens of countries are always looking for ways to reunite with their loved ones. Over the years, there have been numerous changes made to the Canadian family reunification policies. This paper focuses on the Canadian Parent and Grandparent sponsorship program (PGP) and analyzes the problematic ways in which it has been administered and construed over the years. Using data from the Longitudinal Immigration Database (IMDB), Longitudinal Survey of Immigrants (LSIC), Labour Force Survey (LFS), Statistics Canada, Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), and Canadian Census databases, the socio-demographic and economic profiles and outcomes of the family class migrants, specifically parents and grandparents, are compared to other migrant categories after landing. Based on public discourse, the family class migrants, especially parents and grandparents, have been portrayed as an economic burden to the Canadian welfare system, this misconception will be debunked throughout this paper. The current Parent and Grandparent sponsorship program administered is problematic as it solely adopts a lottery system without factoring other important criteria such as the sponsor’s length of stay and permanent residence in Canada, number of attempts to sponsor, maximum number of people applying for one source country and others. Although the current lottery program was introduced in an attempt to be fair to all potential sponsors, it has instead had the opposite effect because it is solely based on luck. The paper proposes recommendations including a hybrid program that will help address some of the perceived shortcomings of the current parents and grandparents sponsorship program, as family migration is an important fabric of Canadian society.

The Effect of Participating in Physical Activity on Health for Americans: Evidence from 1990-2010
Creators: name: Badran, Marwan
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2019

description: Using cross-sectional drawn data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) for the years 1990-2010 in the United States, I examine the causal impact of participating in physical activity on body mass index. I employ an Instrumental Variable framework as a solution to the endogeneity of physical activity, in which I employ the respondents’ answers to the survey question: “Are you using physical activity or exercise to lose weight or maintain your current weight?”, as the instrument. Consistent with the findings of previous studies, the OLS results suggest that participation in any level of physical activity is negatively associated with the body mass indices of individuals. Holding all other factors constant, participating in physical activity is associated with a 5.0% decrease an individuals’ body mass index, while engaging in irregular, regular, and active levels of physical activity is associated with decrease of 3.6%, 5.5%, and 8.7% respectively. Therefore, their statistical effects increase in magnitude as the physical activity levels increase. The attributes of being a female or a smoker are associated with decreases in BMI, while age is positively associated with BMI. Unfortunately, I was unable to obtain causal effects due to employing a weak instrument in the instrumental variables regression. Finally, I conclude that further research is needed to find additional strong and relevant instrument and to acquire a more consistent dataset with well-defined variables in order to obtain more reliable and complete results.
Long-Memory Dynamic Tobit Models

Subjects: subject: Probability

description: We introduce a long-memory dynamic Tobit model, defining it as a censored version of a fractionally-integrated Gaussian ARMA model, which may include seasonal components and/or additional regression variables. Parameter estimation for such a model using standard techniques is typically infeasible, since the model is not Markovian, cannot be expressed in a finite-dimensional state-space form, and includes censored observations. Furthermore, the long-memory property renders a standard Gibbs sampling scheme impractical. Therefore we introduce a new Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling scheme, which is orders of magnitude more efficient than the standard Gibbs sampler. The method is inherently capable of handling missing observations. In case studies, the model is fit to two time series: one consisting of volumes of requests to a hard disk over time, and the other consisting of hourly rainfall measurements in Edinburgh over a two-year period. The resulting posterior distributions for the fractional differencing parameter demonstrate, for these two time series, the importance of the long-memory structure in the models.

description: Nous examinons la possibilité d'adopter un revenu minimum garanti en Ontario. Pour ce faire, nous analysons les différentes formes de revenu minimum garanti ainsi que leurs effets sur la pauvreté, les inégalités et la participation au marché du travail. En outre, nous faisons une revue de la littérature sur les expériences internationales relatives au revenu minimum garanti. Nous nous demandons ensuite si on peut remplacer ou compléter le programme d'assistance sociale actuelle en Ontario par une politique de revenu minimum garanti en comparant l'efficacité administrative et économique d'une politique de revenu minimum garanti à celle du système actuel. Au terme de notre analyse nous pensons que l'Ontario devrait adopter une politique de revenu minimum garanti avec une prime pour l'emploi afin de réduire la pauvreté tout en encourageant simultanément la participation au marché du travail afin de favoriser la croissance économique.

description: The primordial power spectra of scalar and tensor perturbations during slow-roll inflation are usually calculated with the method of Bessel function approximation. For constant-roll or ultra slow-roll inflation, the method of Bessel function approximation may be invalid. We compare the numerical results with the analytical results derived from the Bessel function approximation, and we find that they differ significantly on super-horizon scales if the constant slow-roll parameter $η_H$ is not small. More accurate method is needed for calculating the primordial power spectrum for constant-roll inflation.

description: In domains with high knowledge distribution a natural objective is to create principle foundations for collaborative interactive learning environments. We present a first mathematical characterization of a collaborative learning group, a consortium, based on closure systems of attribute sets and the well-known attribute exploration algorithm from formal concept analysis. To this end, we introduce (weak) local experts for subdomains of a given knowledge domain. These entities are able to refute and potentially accept a given (implicational) query for some closure system that is a restriction of the whole domain. On this we build up a consortial expert and show first insights about the ability of such an expert to answer queries. Furthermore, we depict techniques on how to cope with falsely accepted implications and on combining counterexamples. Using notions from combinatorial design theory we further expand those insights as far as providing first results on the decidability problem if a given consortium is able to explore some target domain. Applications in conceptual knowledge acquisition as well as in collaborative interactive ontology learning are at hand.

description: Existing ultrasound deconvolution approaches unrealistically assume, primarily for computational reasons, that the convolution model relies on a spatially invariant kernel and circulant boundary conditions. We discard both restrictions and introduce an image formation model applicable to ultrasound imaging and deconvolution based on an axially varying kernel, that accounts for arbitrary boundary conditions. Our model has the same computational complexity as the one employing spatially invariant convolution and has negligible memory requirements. To accommodate state-of-the-art deconvolution approaches when applied to a variety of inverse problem formulations, we also provide an equally efficient adjoint expression of our model. Simulation results confirm the tractability of our model for the deconvolution of large images. Moreover, the quality of reconstruction using our model is superior to that obtained using spatially invariant convolution.

description: Many theories beyond the Standard Model involve an extra U(1) gauge group. The resulting gauge boson U, in general mixed with the Z and the photon, may be massless or very light, and very weakly coupled. It may be viewed as a generalized dark photon interacting with matter through a linear combination (ε_Q Q + ε_B B+ε_L L) e, involving B-L in a grand-unified theory, presumably through B-L-.61 Q, inducing effectively a very small repulsive force between neutrons. This new force, if long-ranged, may manifest through apparent violations of the Equivalence Principle. They are approximately proportional to ε_B+ε_L/2, times a combination involving mostly ε_L. New forces coupled to B-L or L should lead to nearly opposite values of the Eötvös parameter δ, and to almost the same limits for ε_{B-L} or ε_L, as long as no indication for δ\neq 0 is found. We derive new limits from the first results of the MICROSCOPE experiment testing the Equivalence Principle in space. A long-range force coupled to (ε_Q Q + ε_{B-L} (B-L)) e or (ε_Q Q + ε_L L) e should verify |ε_{B-L}| or |ε_L| < .8 10^{-24}, and a force coupled to (ε_Q Q + ε_B B) e, |ε_B| < 5 10^{-24}. We also discuss, within supersymmetric theories, how such extremely small gauge couplings g", typically \simle 10^{-24}, may be related to a correspondingly large ξ"D" term associated with a huge initial vacuum energy density, \propto 1/g"^2. The corresponding hierarchy between energy scales, by a factor \propto 1/\sqrt g" \simge 10^{12}, involves a very large scale ~ 10^{16} GeV, that may be associated with inflation, or supersymmetry breaking with a very heavy gravitino, leading to possible values of δ within the experimentally accessible range.

description: Two-dimensional Difference Gel Electrophoresis (DIGE) circumvents many of the problems associated with gel comparison via the traditional approach, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. DIGE's accuracy and precision, however, is compromised by the existence of other significant sources of systematic variation, including that caused by the apparatus used for imaging proteins (location of the camera and lighting units, background material, imperfections within that material, etc.). Through a series of experiments, we estimate some of these factors, and account for their effect on the DIGE experimental data, thus providing improved estimates of the true protein intensities. The model presented here includes classical, single-dye gel electrophoresis images.

description: We present a new, non-parametric forecasting method for data where continuous values are observed discretely in space and time. Our method, light- cone reconstruction of states (LICORS), uses physical principles to identify predictive states which are local properties of the system, both in space and time. LICORS discovers the number of predictive states and their predictive distributions automatically, and consistently, under mild assumptions on the data source. We provide an algorithm to implement our method, along with a cross-validation scheme to pick control settings. Simulations show that CV-tuned LICORS outperforms standard methods in forecasting challenging spatio-temporal dynamics. Our work provides applied researchers with a new, highly automatic method to analyze and forecast spatio-temporal data.

description: This essay examines questions pertaining to transculturality, hybridity, and imaginary homelands, as shown in Zadie Smith’s White Teeth and Salman Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children. Both novels deal with second generation families that have been, or are currently, processing and adapting to their respective postcolonial realities - the case for Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children - or immigrant and second generation families living in London and struggling in the relationship with their hybrid identity markers - such as in the story-line for Smith’s White Teeth. Multiple characters in both Smith and Rushdie’s novels explicitly face coming to terms with these multiple “identity markers” in relation to where they are in the present moment and from whence they and their families have come. Using Smith and Rushdie’s novels as a foundation upon which to consider these issues, this essay explores the realities of hybrid identity, as well as an exploration of the following questions: how do cultural multiplicity and the after-effects of colonization reverberate in families from immediate and future generations? How do questions of identity associated with place adapt and change depending on where one is living? What is considered “home” for an immigrant family living away from their tangible - or not - ancestral place of origin? What becomes of transgenerational memory? This essay explores these questions through the chosen theory and literature.

description: Graphene foams have recently attracted a great deal of interest for their possible use in technological applications, such as electrochemical storage devices, wearable electronics, and chemical sensing. In this work, we present computational investigations, performed by using molecular dynamics with reactive potentials, of the mechanical and thermal properties of graphene random nanofoams. In particular, we assess the mechanical and thermal performances of four families of random foams characterized by increasing mass density and decreasing average pore size. We find that the foams' mechanical performances under tension cannot be rationalized in terms of mass density, while they are principally related to their topology. Under compression, higher-density foams show the typical slope change in the stress-strain curve at 5-10% strain, moving from linear elasticity to bending stress plateau. At variance, lower density foams display a quasi-linear behaviour up to 35% strain. Furthermore, we assess the thermal conductivity of these random foams using the Green-Kubo approach. While foam thermal conductivity is affected by both connectivity and defects, nevertheless we obtain similar values for all the investigated families.

description: Abstract: This study designs an improvement process based on Advanced Education theory and examines the importance of continuous improvement for the professional performance of statistical technicians. It highlights the essential role of statistics in educational research and the challenges arising from inadequate preparation in this field. Advanced Education theory, focused on professional development, is presented as a viable solution to overcome these deficiencies through a workforce and society-centered approach. Statistics is crucial for the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data in educational research, and its proper use increases the objectivity of results. Advanced Education proposes a higher education system oriented towards professional improvement, based on the integration of theory and practice and the comprehensive development of the individual. It provides tools and knowledge for statistical technicians to stay updated with advancements in their field, enabling them to offer high-quality data analysis and interpretation services. This contributes to the growth and evolution of the profession, is essential for adapting to the technological revolution, and allows statistical technicians to significantly contribute to local development. In conclusion, the continuous improvement of statistical technicians is crucial for local development, and Advanced Education theory provides a solid foundation for this improvement. It is necessary to address the challenges to achieve adequate statistical training for technicians.

description: We consider the application of endpoint techniques to the problem of mass determination for new particles produced at a hadron collider, where these particles decay to an invisible particle of unknown mass and one or more visible particles of known mass. We also consider decays of these types for pair-produced particles and in each case consider situations both with and without initial state radiation. We prove that, in most (but not all) cases, the endpoint of an appropriate transverse mass observable, considered as a function of the unknown mass of the invisible particle, has a kink at the true value of the invisible particle mass. The co-ordinates of the kink yield the masses of the decaying particle and the invisible particle. We discuss the prospects for implementing this method at the LHC.

description: Existing bound-state type calculations of three-neutron resonances yield contradicting results. A direct study of the three-neutron continuum using rigorous scattering equations with realistic potentials and search for possible resonances is aimed. Faddeev-type integral equations for three-neutron transition operators are solved in the momentum-space partial-wave framework. The evolution of resonances is studied by enhancing the strength of the two-neutron interaction in partial waves with nonzero orbital momentum. Calculated three-neutron transition operators exhibit resonant behavior for sufficiently large enhancement factors; pole trajectories in the complex-energy energy plane are extracted from their energy dependence. However, the resonant behavior completely disappears for the physical interaction strength. There are no physically observable three-neutron resonant states consistent with presently accepted interaction models.

description: As the population ages, the need for appropriate geriatric rehabilitation services will also increase. Pressures faced by hospitals to reduce length of stay and reduce costs have driven the need for more complex care being delivered in the home or community setting. As a result, a multifaceted approach that can provide geriatric rehabilitation patients with safe and effective person- and family-centered care during transitions from hospital to home is required. We hypothesize that a technology-supported person- and family-centered care transition could empower geriatric rehabilitation patients, engage them in shared decision making, and ultimately help them to safely manage their personalized needs during care transitions from hospital to home.

description: The ubiquity of implicit feedback makes them the default choice to build online recommender systems. While the large volume of implicit feedback alleviates the data sparsity issue, the downside is that they are not as clean in reflecting the actual satisfaction of users. For example, in E-commerce, a large portion of clicks do not translate to purchases, and many purchases end up with negative reviews. As such, it is of critical importance to account for the inevitable noises in implicit feedback for recommender training. However, little work on recommendation has taken the noisy nature of implicit feedback into consideration. In this work, we explore the central theme of denoising implicit feedback for recommender training. We find serious negative impacts of noisy implicit feedback,i.e., fitting the noisy data prevents the recommender from learning the actual user preference. Our target is to identify and prune noisy interactions, so as to improve the quality of recommender training. By observing the process of normal recommender training, we find that noisy feedback typically has large loss values in the early stages. Inspired by this observation, we propose a new training strategy namedAdaptive Denoising Training(ADT), which adaptively prunes noisy interactions during training. Specifically, we devise two paradigms for adaptive loss formulation: Truncated Loss that discards the large-loss samples with a dynamic threshold in each iteration; and reweighted Loss that adaptively lowers the weight of large-loss samples. We instantiate the two paradigms on the widely used binary cross-entropy loss and test the proposed ADT strategies on three representative recommenders. Extensive experiments on three benchmarks demonstrate that ADT significantly improves the quality of recommendation over normal training.
Iterative Markov Chain Monte Carlo Computation of Reference Priors and Minimax Risk

Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Probability

description: We present an iterative Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for computing reference priors and minimax risk for general parametric families. Our approach uses MCMC techniques based on the Blahut-Arimoto algorithm for computing channel capacity in information theory. We give a statistical analysis of the algorithm, bounding the numbers of samples required for ties to chaotic algorithm to closely approximate the deterministic algorithm in each iteration. Simulations are presented for several examples from exponential families. Although we focus on applications to reference priors and minimax risk, the methods and analysis we develop are applicable to a much broader class of optimization problems and iterative algorithms.
Protecting the Axion with Local Baryon Number

description: The Peccei-Quinn (PQ) solution to the Strong CP Problem is expected to fail unless the global symmetry U(1)${}_{\rm PQ}$ is protected from Planck-scale operators up to high mass dimension. Suitable protection can be achieved if the PQ symmetry is an automatic consequence of some gauge symmetry. We highlight that if baryon number is promoted to a gauge symmetry, the exotic fermions needed for anomaly cancellation can elegantly provide an implementation of the Kim-Shifman-Vainshtein-Zakharov 'hidden axion' mechanism with a PQ symmetry protected from Planck-scale physics.

A note on the Hamiltonian constraint in canonical GR

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Hamiltonian constraint of the coupled Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs system with a cosmological constant is shown to be a pure Poisson bracket of a dimensionless functional on the phase space and the volume of the three-space. One of its potential consequences, a restriction on the eigenstates of the volume operator in a class of canonical quantum gravity theories, is also pointed out.

Promoting Social Integration – A Brief Examination of Concepts and Issues
Creators: name: Jeannotte, M. Sharon
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2008
Subjects: Social cohesion

Social integraton

description: Social integration is one of a constellation of “social” terms that is being used widely in contemporary policy development to describe concepts whose aim (as stated by the Copenhagen Declaration and Programme of Action) is to foster societies that are stable, safe, just and tolerant, and respect diversity, equality of opportunity and participation of all people. Other terms that often invoked in support of this goal are “social inclusion”, “social cohesion” and “social capital”. All of these are contested terms, which often results in fruitless debate about what is meant when the terms are used. More seriously for policy makers, they are also notoriously difficult concepts to measure and operationalize, which is a distinct disadvantage in the current context of “evidence-based policy making”. This short paper is intended to highlight some of the main conceptual, contextual and policy issues surrounding the use of the terms.

description: We compute the Euclidean action for constant curvature black holes (CCBHs), as an attempt to associate thermodynamic quantities to these solutions of Einstein anti-de Sitter (AdS) gravity. CCBHs are gravitational configurations obtained by identifications along isometries of a $D$-dimensional globally AdS space, such that the Riemann tensor remains constant. Here, these solutions are interpreted as extended objects, which contain a $(D-2)$-dimensional de-Sitter brane as a subspace. Nevertheless, the computation of the free energy for these solutions shows that they do not obey standard thermodynamic relations.

Evaluating the Discordant Trends of Political Divergence and Economic Convergence Across the Taiwan Strait
Creators: name: Du, Juan
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2018

description: This research aims to figure out the discordant trends of economic convergence and political divergence across the Taiwan Strait both at the governmental and the public levels. Besides illustrating the factors that shape these two inconsistent trends, this paper will demonstrate the political divergence at the public level through figuring out their preferences for unification and independence issues and Tsai Ing-wen’s cross-Strait policy. This research will also provide implications for Taiwan and Mainland China based on the 2008, 2012 and 2016 presidential elections and surveys related to the performance of the Tsai administration. Since the 1980s, the cross-Strait economic interactions have increased dramatically. At the government level, Taiwan’s different ruling parties’ and the Chinese authorities’ policies toward each other can influence cross-Strait economic and political contacts. The economic interactions between the two-side people of the Strait have also increased. Based on logistic regression models, this research concludes that Taiwanese people’s cost-and-benefit calculations on the macroeconomic condition of Taiwan, and their political predispositions of party affiliation and ethnic identity can influence on their preferences for unification-independence issues and Tsai Ing-wen’s cross-Strait policy. Therefore, Taiwanese people’s cost-and-benefit calculations on the national economy of Taiwan, and the party affiliation and ethnic identity they have contributed to the political divergence at the public level.
